Fort Worth, Tex, March 11.--Miss
Lois Guion. confidential friend and
chum of Mrs. Katherine V. Harrison,
the 15-year-old girl-bride who con-
fessed to shooting w. l.. Warren, two
months before her marriage to Harri-
son, because, as she alleges, he had
wronged her. has disappeared from
her home here and even her closest
friends are not cognizant of her
whereabouts. If Mrs. Harrison is
brought to trial the testimony of
Miss Guion will form the chief fea-
ture OF the case. 1t is said that Miss
Guion, to whom Mrs. Harrison had
confessed the killing, prevailed upon
the young woman to tell her story to
the authorities when an innocent man
was in danger OF being convicted of
the crime.

MUCH WORK FOR PRESIDENT,
MERE SIGNING OF COMMITS.
SIONS is BURDEN.
Thousands Now Ready and Need
Only Scratch of Pen to- Make Pro.
motions of Officers Effective.

washington, Aug. 16.-Complction
Oh the reorganization measures au-
thorized for the regular army under
the bill which became effective july
Is being delayed by the fact that
president Wilson has been unable to
hnd time tO>sign the thousand or more
officers commissions which have ac-
cumulated on his desk. Until the
commissions are signed the officers
have no authority to exercise the
functions Of their new rank.
The tax upon the Presidents time is
SO great that army officials have
recommended passage of a special
act authorizing delegation of the DOW
er to sign commissions to some other
person. That practice is followed in
the land office and it has been point
cd out that If an army of 5000 VOL
unteers were to be formed, with its
$4,000 officers, it would take the pres
ident. the secretary of war and the
adJutant general, the three officials
whose names must appear on commits
sions. nine full working days each to
carry out their part in this purely
routine matter.
With the addition Of the first incre
ment OF the authorized regular army
increase, majority of the officers of
the regular army went up grade in
rank. Each will receive a new COM
mission and then will remain the task
OF providing commissions for several
thousand second lieutenants selected
from civil life. The process will be
repeated each year for three years to
come as the other increments are add
ed to the army.

HOPES FOR NEW LINE.
Charleston Secs It's Prospects Bright.
cning.

Charleston. Aug. 16.-Prospects of
the case of the Charleston & Nor.
folk Steamship company. against tho
Chesapeake & Ohio and other rail-
roads being reopeneG by the Interstate
sSiamefce colsmissi6n are frightened
and the probability OF the steamship
company, promoted by local business
men. getting the joint proportional
rate asked is enhanced by the passage
in. the senate yesterday Of a Joint
resolution by Senator E. ID. Smith call
ing on the commission to reconsider
the case and render an opinion as to
whether the rate asked will be grant
ed In advance Of the purchase of
steamships as contemplated by the
complainants.
The hearing of this case before the
commission was begun here last year
and later the commission dismissed
the complaint on the ground that the
complainant was only theoretically d
common carrier. owning neither ter
minals nor steamships. The merits
OF the case were not passed on. Brief
ly the purpose Of the complaint was
to get for the Charleston & Norfolk
steamship company the same proper
tional rate from Cincinnati to Louis
Vile and st. Louis that Is accepted
by the Norfolk & Western and the
c. & o. railroads from rail lines serv-
ing Carolina territory.
1t has been already stated that II
the rate asked can be secured the
steamship company propose to at
once begin the operation of a line OF
steamers between this port and Nor
folk.
Senator Smiths resolution pointed
out that the commission should re-
open the case and render q decision
In this case because Of the precedent
established by the commission for
such action I'm the cases of the Fowler
City & Knoxville Packing company, I'm
which IL was ruled that the railroad
lines should accept certain proportion
al rates. even though the complainants
did not own any steamers. The ruling
was that the complainants should not
be required TO spend thousands of dol
lars for equipment until they knew
what rate they were going to get.
The status of the case now is that
the resolution of Senator Smith calls
upon the interstate commerce COM
mission to say whether or not the rate
asked Will be applied provided the
steamship company buys or builds
steamers and puts them i'm operation.

washington, Aug. 17.-President
Wilson today sent the following tele-
gram to fifteen railroad presidents:
Discussion of the matters involved
In the threatened railway strike has
reached such point which makes 1t
highly desirable that I should per-
sonally confer with you at the earliest
possible moment and with the presi-
dents Of any of tho railroads affected
who may be Immediately accessible.
Hope you can make 1t convenient to
come to Washington at once.
Woodrow Wilson.
President Wilson then talked to
President Daniel Willard of Baltimore
4 Ohio. who is chairman Of the rail-
way presidents association over the
telephone. Willard promised to come
to Washington Immediately. Those
summoned here are the presidents Of
the Pennsylvania lines, New York
Central. New Haven lines. Erie, Chi
cago, Burlington & Quincy, seaboard,
Delaware & Hudson, Missouri Pa
cific. Union and Southern Pacific lines,
Chesapeake 4 Ohio, Chicago and
Great Western and Southern Railway.
The brotherhood leaders seem re-
lieved. 1t is believed they will now
accept the eight hour day, without
the time and a-half for over time.
President Lee of the brotherhood of
railway trainmen says break may be
delayed II not prevented. He says
they offered concessions but the rail-
way managers refused to give any
thing.
The railway managers are plainly
seriously concerned over President
WILSON'S action. The peremptory
tone of the telegram causes bitter
comment. some managers declaring
they believe politics are mixed in tho
situation.
