the priest disclaimed any knowledge of

"They must have gone towards

susceptible of education and then he
begins to go back. The only solution

Stranger Visits Frisco Station and

Of Robber Found

Yesterday evening between 5:45 and
6:15 someone entered the ticket office
of the Frisco, pried open the money
drawer and made clean getaway with
all change therein. amounting to
$20.S5.
Entrance was effected through the
negro waiting room, which was va
cant The ticket window between the
negro waiting room and the office was
pried off, likewise the screen. Evil
dences of jimmy of some sort are
seen on the window frame and screen,
the same marks appearing again on
the money drawer. Though the lock
was pried loose it was not damaged
materially, the boards constructing the
counter above it having bent suffic
iently to allow the bolt to slip before
it was broken. The money taken was
all silver, the currency having been
previously locked in the safe
The boldness with which the rob
berry was committed is the answer to
its success. Several persons were in
the waiting room awaiting the arrival
of the west bound passenger, due. at
about o'clock. They stated later
that they heard noises in the ticket
office, but they simply were of the
opinion that some Of the men were at
work in the office, the supposition that
a robbery was being committed never
entering their minds The train was
not due for some time and the ticket
window between the office and the
white waiting room was closed, OBJ

room.
r. L. Jones, the night operator, had
gone on duty. His supper hour is be

COAL CASE
IS BEFORE
The COURT
Famous Suit Started by Attorney
General ia 1908 Reaches Judge
Bailey on Transfer Record
is a Large One

The famous case of the State Of Ok.
lahoma VS.. the Rock Island Railroad,
the Rock Island Coal Mining Co, the
Choctaw, Oklahoma & Gulf railway,
filed in 1908 by Chas. West, attorney
general, has found its way from one
court to another and is now under the
consideration of Judge F. M. Bailey of
the district court Of Grady county.
Filed in Pittsburg county, legal pa
pers, demurrers, etc, have accumulat-
ed during its hearing there and in Lo-
gan county where it was transferred
until upon its appearance in the Grady
county court the size of the bundle and
the number of words contained there
in is something appalling.
The petition Of the state alleges that
the Rock Island railroad, the Rock
Island Mining company and the Choc-
taw, Oklahoma & Gulf railway have
violated the law forbidding any trans
portation company from hauling any
product of mines owned by them
selves, inasmuch as the several differ
ent companies named as defendants in
the action are really owned by the
general Rock Island company.
The defendants in answering, admit
that 9S per cent of the stock Of the
Rock Island Coal Mining company is
held in the name of the general man
ager of the mining department of the
Rock Island, but they state that about
two thirds of the coal mined at their
claims is used by the company and
that the portion that is disposed Of Is
sold at the mines and therefore be
longs to others when being trans
ported.
Some interesting dates and history
are recited in the various petitions
submitted, one OF which is that the
Rock Island owned and maintained {
road from Chicago ILL.,, to Rock Island
ILL.,. as early as 1850 and that th'
Choctaw Coal and Railway COMPANY
was recognized in 1887; that on Marcl
"a, 1904, the Choctaw, Oklahoma (
Gulf leased their railroad to the Rocl
Island for a period Of 999' years, re
serving all mining leases and lands.

Says Losses Are Terrible.
BY United Press.

BY United Press.
Amsterdam, Oct. 2S.-A letter re-
ceived here by resident from friend
near the border tells some interesting
facts of the way the Germans regard
the progress OF the war. The letter
follows:
Il have seen a little. from very
high German official who has been at
the front since the beginning of the
invasion of Belgium and is now inva-
lided home in which he says, The war
is not going as we expected. The re-
sistance of the allied forces is extra
ordinary and we are beginning to feel
very nervous as to the result Our
(cerman) losses are terrible, so terri
BILE that the emperor has forbidden
their disclosures. Our generals have
been wantonly wasteful with our men,
who have been moved down in thou
sands. Whilst ii is impossible to say
exactly what our losses are, ! should
estimate them between $4,000 and
100000 altogether. If it continues at
this rate much longer we shall be quite
unable to meet Russia with any hope
Of success"

The cotton market today showed an
advance over the past several days,
owing it is thought to several differ
ent reasons. At any rate, in the past
two days it has advanced from 3-4
to 6 rs, basis middling.
The rise is attributed in the main
to the statement that cotton would not
be considered contraband if consigned
in neutral vessels to belligerent coun-
tries from the United States. Immense
shipments were exported from New
Orleans yesterday. also the New York
shipping showed a big increase.
Everything seems to combine to
boost the price little. Many who
have contracts for October cotton are
making an effort to purchase their
shortage and get it in on an October
dating The frost and string of bad
weather experienced in the past week
has had something to do with the
price and the announcement that the
New York exchange will open soon is
also considered boost.

Washington, Oct 2S.-The com
pleted plan for the $135,000.000 loan
fund to take care Of the surplus cot
ton crop differs only in detail from
the previous announcements Of the
federal reserve board
The boards outline Of the plan was
made public Tuesday night at the
same time that it was sent to clearing
house associations throughout the
country. Responses are expected to
reach the board before the end of the
week, and officials were hopeful that
the plan would meet with sufficient
banking support to make its adoption
certain.
The outline differs only in detail
from the previous announcements OF
the board. The fund, it shows, is to
be administered under the direction o.
committee to be known as the CEN
trail committee, to be composed of the
| individual members OF the reserve
board. Actual administration OF the
fund will be under cotton loan COM
| mittee," to consist Of w. p G. Hard
| ing of the federal reserve board; Paul
| NJ Warburg of the board; Col. K. Nj,
House, Austin, Texas; A. H. Wiggin,
New York; James S. Alexander, New
York; James B. Forgan, Chicago; Fes-
tus J. Wade, St. Louis; Levi l.. Rue,
/ Philadelphia, and VIM A. CASTOR, Bos-
ton.
There are to be two classes of sub
scriptions to the fund. The first
known as "a" is to aggregate $780,
100000 and to be raised among bank
ers and other persons or corporations
and firms in non-cotton producing
states. Glass "B'' subscriptions are to
be made by banks or bankers OF the
cotton producing states.
| Applications for loans must be sub
mitted to state and local committees,
which are required to approve them
and must be made through hanks or
bankers who are required to accom-
pany applications with subscriptions to
class "B" certificates amounting to 25
per cent OF the loan required. This
practically means that the non-cotton
producing states participating will loan
Is per cent and the cotton states q
per cent. Every subscriber win re-
ceive certificates of participation
