SANTA Re MOGULS
ARE IN EVIDENCE
Act Like Sleuths and Won t
Talk at All, So There
You Are.

The Santa Fe is going to do some-
thing for Tulsa, Just when and how
much Is not known. but the railroad
is paving the city considerable atten-
ton of late and it is the general be-
lief that there are serious intentions
in the minds Of the railroad officials.
Tulsa is well equipped with railroads
now. but railroad improvement nat
urally follows rather than leads other
branches OF industrial progress, and
It Is known that Tulsa deserves some
more railroad advantages.
Railroads are little bashful IN
their courtship, so to speak. When
the big railroad magnates arrive in
town they simply look about, ask a
very few questions and leave no trail
when they depart, They seldom
speak OF making an Improvement
until the money is set apart for the
work, the plans drawn and the con-
tract for construction Is awarded.
People have conjectured everything
from q union depot to cut Off to
Cushing, but the Santa Fe states no
Intentions. Perhaps one or perhaps
all Of the things Tulsa wants will ma
terialize in a few months.
Twice, only recently. c. f. w. Felt
OF Chicago, chief engineer or tine
Santa Fe, has been switched off in
his private car in the Tulsa yards and
proceeded to look things over.
Taciturn but persistent, appears 70
the Tulsa boosters as a good sign.
Tulsa's reputation was worth coming
to see and the second visit proved
that Tulsa bears acquaintance. Local
Santa Fe representatives don't know
ANYTHING about what Is about to hap
pen. They would like 30 know them
selves. they say. They may have a
"hunch," but anybody can have them.

Tell of Wholesale Elec-
ton Frauds.

INDIANAPOLIS, March II. -
Chauffeurs and men who said they
were fOremen Of repeating crews"
detailed at the trial in the federal
court of Mayor Dom Nj. Roberts Of
Terre Haute and II other ALLEGED
election fraud conspirators today the
manner in which fraudulent registra-
tlons were made and how Roberts
flew into a passion when an automo-
bile loaded with repeaters stopped in
front OF Democratic headquarters,
which was a registration place also.
"Get away from here" shouted
Roberts, calling the men vile name,
testified Otto Trappler who said he
was foreman of the automobile with
It's load Of repeaters. The incident
also was described by Jess Klippert,
driver of the car.
Trappler who had pleaded guilty,
in addition 20 making out false regis
tration applications and assisting in
registering them, said he supplied 2lO
names for three houses in which there
were only IL legal voters.
A number OF witnesses, including
Trappler, John Bruins. defendant,
and his son Bert said they did not
touch the keys Of the voting machine
when they went to vote. The three
said the inspector did the voting for
them. The two Bruins said they re-
ceived a brass check each from the
inspector and cashed them for a dol
lar apiece at the saloon Of Frank

ploy Of the Prairie Oil & Gas Co., has
offices in Bartlesville and has been
living there recently, returning To ms
family In Tulsa to spend the sun
days. A long distance telephone call
Monday evening notified him or the
strange disappearance OF his daughter
and soon kilograms were being sent 10
every city in the southwest. The
search was especially centered in Jop-
lin. where 1t was believed the girl had
gone. The authorities at Cedar Rap

Looked Over Show Troupe.
Chief OF Police Joe Depew OF Mus
kogee was notified to watch for the
girl and according to the stories sent
out from Tulsa, II was thought that
the cause OF the girls disappearance
was in some way connected with her
desire to become an actress. The
members of a stock company playing
in Muskogee this week were looked
over by the officers, but none of the
members answered the description OF
fourteen-year- old Bernice Batchelder.

working on a new theory went to the
home OF Mrs. Howard on South Third.
Mrs. Howard moved 20 Muskogee
from Tulsa less than four weeks ago.
When questioned concerning the miss
ing girl. Mrs Howard did not hesitate
to inform the police that the girl was
living with her She stated that Ber-
nice had come from Tulsa with opal
Barker, a sister of Mrs. Howard, Mon
day evening. and had been roomins
with opal. She did not know Bernlce
had run away from home, she de-
clares.
Bernice, who was asleep when the
officers arrived, hurriedly dressed and
after several frultless attempts at pro-
test she consented to go with them To
police headquarters.

over ten policemen and not one OF
them recognized me- the girl told
Chief Depew with n little laugh.
And the officers can readily be par
doned for their failing to recognize
the fourteen year-old girl who was
sought by the police in so many cities,
for she is not only as bright and in
tellisent as the average nineteen year
old girl but was also the size OF
ninet teen-y -year-old girl. standing five
feet eight inches in height and weigh
ing 14O pounds. the girl is beautiful
specimen of young wOmanhood. Her
deep blue eyes, dimpled cheeks and
round baby face might be those OF a
fourteen -year-old girl. but in every
other respect the girls appearance,
bearing and manners were those OF a
cultured young lady of at least nine
teen summers.

 A groan went up from the crowd and then howl Lewis jumped from the ring and approached body of American newspaper men who just at that moment were dazedly discuss ing, Lewis decision. Lewis over heard what the newspaper men had toy say about the verdict. and then rushed through the departing crowd jumped into the ring. and at the top of his voice shouted.
 Ladies and gentlemen, this fight wasn't any draw. Battling Nelson won the decision. :! award the de- cision to Battling Nelson"
 Later Lewis tried to explain his change of mind by saying that ns did not lift Fryer's hand-that he lifted only Nelson's bit that Fryer had stood alongside and raised his hand back of Lewis shoulder so. as te give the impression that ths figh' was a draw.
