SANTAFE SHOWS
 GOOD INCREASE IN EARNING

 NEW YORK. Sept. 27.-The Atchi son, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway company. for the year ending June 30 last, reports operating revenues or gross earnings of $133,762, 1892, an in crease of slightly more than $16,OOO, 900 over the preceding year, operating ex- penses of $S3,730,960, an increase of about $7,600,000, and net operating revenues of S50,03l ,432 an increase of $S, ,39S. kN4A H
 Neither the company nor any of it's subsidiaries has any notes or bills out standing and the company had in it's treasury at the end of the fiscal year cash to the amount of s44,364,922. Net income of $45, 109 46S available for interest dividends plus sundry pro- fit and loss adjustments aggregating s202,6 represents about 6.19 per cent on the property investment.
 Operations were marked by three disasters, the tropical storm which flooded Galveston, an explosion at Ard more. Okla, both causing serious loss of life and property and an extraor- dinary rainfall in California and Ari- zona resulting in loss of s2,000,000 to s3,500,000.
 Close analysis of operations for the | year ciedrly lnulCdleS lHe eIlHdHCeu earnings to be almost wholly due to the war in Europe. Even things apparent ly remote can be traced to this source On the Pacific coast there is no ship ping for Atlantic ports resulting o1 course in greatly increased tonnage by rail in Arizona and New Mexico, the copper and zinc industries have beer abnormal stimulation-the demand fol foodstuffs has produced large price: for a heavy grain crop, thus creating large purchasing power-the oil indus try has felt the interruption of sup plies from Old World sources and thu enormous increase in the use of gaso line-in fact business of all kinds ha: been stimulated to such an extent tha there have been practically no dul periods during the entire year. So ob normal has the business been that i will doubtless be several years before we again reach the volume of the pas year.
 "The striking fact emphasized by tn, foregoing statement is that earning! on the entire investment during this the most prosperous year of the com pany's history, are but little over sil per cent and, even in recent years average but little more than five pc cent per annum, and it must be born in mind that of these earnings it i ; necessary to appropriate substantial amount each year for improvement and bettermentS."

PARIS, Sept 27.-President Poin- caire today received Baron de Gaif- fer d'Hestroy, the newly appointed Belgian minister to France After reviewing the history of the famed night session of the Belgian cabinet on August ?, 1914, presided over by King Albert. and recalling that Baron de Gaiffier, as director of the cabinet of the ministry of foreign af- fairs, prepared the note replying to the German ultimatum, the president said:
 If Belgium should not recover its full independence, if Belgium should not receive the reparation that is its due, an ineffacable shame would soil the annals of Europe and nothing would be left for us but to veil in eternal mourning the statues of jus tice. Not a Frenchman. not one of our allies. could be found who would not prefer death to that ignominy.
 Violated rights shall be avenged. Each day our concerted efforts bring us nearer to victory and hasten the deliverance."

MYSTERY STILL
 UNS0LvED IN
 TRIPLE TRAGEDY
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 27. = The wounded companion of J. c. Graveur, prominent New York social worker and garage owner, who was shot and killed by Mrs. Harry Belzer a discarded sweetheart, who then committed sui eide in hotel here early today. con tinued late tonight to maintain the silence which she has kept ever since the triple shooting. Although she could not be drawn into any admission, the police are sure that she is the wife of Joseph c. Leduc, a well known Chi cago business man, who is reported to be on his way here. Mrs. Hobart Mann of Brooklyn, said to be her sister, vls- ited her in the hospital tonight, but re- fused to make known the identity of the wounded woman who still is in | critical condition.
 | Identification of the murderess and | suicide was made nine hours after the shooting, by Mrs. Frances Apman of | New York, sister of the man, who came | here with his business associate, Harry l V. Fancy, upon receiving word of the | tragedy. Mrs. Apman informed the po-
 lice that her brother had been friendly
 with Mrs. BelZer, whose maiden name
 was Margaret c. Andrews.
 Graveur, according to investigations
 made by the police today, left New | York on an automobile tour September 12, while on September 19 Mrs. Le-
 duo, Chicago" registered at the Hote
 Theresa in that city. Whether this if | the same woman who accompanied
 him here or a different Mrs. Leduc, the
 police were unable to determine. Sev-
 eral articles of clothing worn bN | GraVeur's companion bear the trade
 mark of Chicago shops.
 Receipted bills found in GraVeur possession show that he and his com
 panion had spent Friday and Saturda,
 in Atlantic City
 Cards bearing Mrs. Leduc's nam
 were found in the hand bag carried b, Mrs. BelZer and it was at first sup
 posed that that was her name.
 A telegram signed "J. C. Leduc, 4
 South Michigan avenue, Chicago. wa received today by the authorities a the hospital where the wounded woma i Is a patient, requesting information a to her identity.
 : Mrs. Mann denied that there wa anything wrong in her sisters rela 2 tions with Graveur. "Graveur was
 friend of the family" she said. HI
 had known my sister for a long tim g but had not seen her for years. Ther 2 was nothing wrong about their friend ship. My sister went to Philadelphi Monday to see a nephew. She did nc { go with Graveur. She had been hap , oily married for ten years
 Mrs. Mann left the hospital after 7, few minutes talk with the injure U woman without leaving her addres n and efforts by the detectives to locat | her tonight were unavailing.
