NAMES CO-RECEIVER
 FOR WABASH ROAD
Judge Adams Appoints Acting Presi- dent of Texas and Pacific to
 Assist F. B. Pryor.

St Louis Mo-, Feb. 12.-Edward F. Kearney, acting president of the Texas & Pacific railroad, yesterday was appointed receiver of the Wabash railroad. He will share the duties with F. B. Pryor, who has been one of the receivers since the road went into bankruptcy.
 The appointment was made by United States Circuit Judge Adams, who also authorized the issuance of receivers notes to the extent of s1,545,000
 These notes will be used to take up equipment notes of similar amount row past due. Installment payments on the old notes werc defaulted last July and in January.
 The authorization of the new note issue and the appointment of a CO., receiver were considered in railroad circles as steps toward re-organiza- tion of the Wabash. It is understood that MT. Kearney is to be elected president of the Wabash when the road is re-organized.
 The new notes will be of two classes. One, amounting to $61S,00O will bear eight per cent interest, and the other class. aggregating $97, ,Ooo will bear at four and one-half per cent.
 The equipment issue in default was put out in 1906 and was held by Lee Higginson & Co.,, of Boston.

MUST BRING THEIR
 OWN BREAD ALONG
Restaurant Guests of Berlin After February 22 Will Have to Supply
 Themselves With Stan of Life.

Berlin, Feb. II, via London, Feb. 12, 155 a. m.-The guests of Berlin restaurants after February 22 either must bring pocketsful of rolls or a bread ticket with them. Otherwise no bread will be obtainable. This Is the solution arranged today by the Berlin authorities for the only really difficult problem in the scheme for placing Berlin residents on a two kilogram bread ration.
 Arrangements for the issue of bread tickets to family households were easily made and the authorities settled the problem for hotels and boarding houses by authorizing the issue of day tickets for every guest registered.
 The newspapers, quick to grasp tho humorous features of the new regu- lations, suggest that dinner invitations in the future bear alongside of the stereotyped "R. S. V. F." the initials of the German equivalent for bring bread with you"

( Al lANT OF WEALTH
 AND WOMAN ARE CONE
"Daketa Dal'' aRd Mrs. fanion Coh'
 SpiCueus by Their Absence.

The simultaneous disappearance of Daniel Blake Russell, who claims to be the heir to a fortune in Melrose, Mass, and Mrs. Victoria Fanion Of 323 South Main street has led friends of both to believe that they might have left the city together and, as neither has been seen since last Tues day morning, it is being taken for granted that they have eloped.
 Mrs. Fanion, before her marriage three years ago, was Miss Victoria Tomschek That she was even then imbued with a spirit of romance was sh own when she eloped to New Ha- ven with Fanion. 1t is said that tn cir matrimonial bark has been nearing the reefs of late, and it was whispered about that Mrs. Fanion was not satis- fled with her captain. She was not at all pleased with the life afforded bv her husbands pay check, it is saj q and went out to work herself. Fanion had no objections to. this. put, it IS claimed, he remonstrated with her For going out with other men in public. At this she stamped her little foot and explained her position in real lam guage.
 Fanion thought matters had reached a pretty pass last week when a friend whispered in his ear that the gay Lo- thario from the west and claimant to untold piles of gold was casting eyes at his wife. But that was not the worst-she did not seem to resent it. Fanion and the missus had one of those nice, quiet little talks in which he explained that things must be dono thus and so if their connubial felicity was not to be ruptured entirely. But she should worry about connubial se- licity, whatever that was, and she guessed she could take care of her self. Exit the dove of peace.
 Last Tuesday Fanion is said to have found a note from his wife stat ing that she was going away from here and would never. never, never come back. About the same time Fanion heard that Russell was also am ong the missing and, putting two and two together he found it made two minus.
 Russell is thought to be a married man, having mentioned wife living in the west several times to local friends.
