UNION STATION MAY
Be CHANGED
NEW DEVELOPMENTS SEEM To INDICATE A POSSIBILITY Of
SECURING MASTERS PROPERTY

New developments seem to be more
favorable to "a change of the union
station from the site upon which it is
building to the FL. B. Masters prop
erty. The Masters company, accord
ing to Mr.. B. A. Weathers, vice pres
ident, is ready to negotiate with the
railroads for trade of properties,
and messages from T. w. Parsons,
livision superintendent, and C. S.
Lake, general manager of the Sea-
board Air Line, state that negotia-
tions will be agreeable to them pro-
vided satisfactory arrangements can
be made with the railroad commission
and the contractor to hold up work
on the station until some decision can
be reached.
Mr.. Parsons has wired President
Nash of the council, in reply to the
iatter's telegram of yesterday, that
he will return to Ocala at his earliest
convenience to again consider the
matter with council. If Mr.. Parsons
should reach the city before May 20,
council will no doubt meet at once in
special session.

WAITE ON THE STAND
Denied Several Charges Made Against
Him and Said He Considered
Himself Sane
ASSOCIATED Press)

New York, May 26.-Dr. Arthur
Warren Waite this morning denied
ever telling the district attorney
while he was in Bellevue that the
"man from Egypt" killed Peck. He
said he asked Mrs. Margaret Horton
if she ever heard of the imam from
Egypt" but denied that he had other
wise spoken of such a character
Waite denied that he ever planned or
tried to kill his wife, and also denied
taking insanity at Bellevue or in the
Tombs. He believes himself sane.
Waite told the alienist engaged for
the defense he intended to kill his
wife, Clara Park Waite and married
her only for her money, DIR. Morris j
Karpas, the defense alienist, so tes-
titled. He declared that Waite said
he didn't intend to stop at anything
to gain his end.
Alienists testified that Waite didn't
appear mentally well and was alb
normal in that his interests centered
on himself.

WORLD COURT
ADVOCATES MEET
Two Thousand Are in Attendance on
Sessions of League to
Enforce Peace
Associated Press)

Washington, May 26.-American
advocates of an international fedora
ton to curtail war after the present
European struggle met here for the
first assembly of the new league to
enforce peace. William H. Taft,
president of the league and Newton
D. Baker, secretary of war, are on the
days program. President Wilson's
address at the closing session tomor-
row night is expected to be signif-
can't utterance. There are about two
thousand in attendance.
The subject of former President
Taft's address was an explanation of
why the leagues plan to form fed
Grafton of nations to use armed force
to prevent war without first trying
arbitration wouldn't violate the con-
stitutional authority of the president
ard Congress to declare war.
The objects of the league are to en-
fcrce peace and not to urge President
Wilson to take steps to stop the pres
ent war, Mr.. Taft declared. The
league hopes, he said, for a world
agreement to make war less probable.

GREAT MAXWELL OIL MILEAGE

The item of cylinder oil in the op-
Grafton of an automobile is quite an
important one; it may be heavy or it
may be almost nothing. The claim of
the Maxwell manufacturers is that
the Maxwell gives the greatest mile
age of any automobile of it's size and
weight manufactured. This claim is
substantiated by the daily records of
Maxwell cars in operation all over the
country. Oil consumption in pro-
portion to gasoline is larger than the
average man realizes.
Mr.. B. c.. Webb of Kendrick, has
had Maxwell car three months. He
has personally driven it every mile it
has travelled and has himself put in
very drop of oil and grease. He has
used exactly three quarts of oil and
travelled 1911 miles, good portion of
which has been on hard country trips
with four and five passengers in the
car. The oil gauge is now exactly at
the same position it was when he took
the car, showing the same quantity of
oil in his crank base that it contained
at that time-enough to run the car
500 miles without replenishing the
supply.
Mr.. Webb says one cannot count
the oil expense on a Maxwell at any
thing hardly, and tells of trip he
took in another part of the state, a
distance of 110 miles, in car of much
lighter weight, on which trip the
driver added three quarts of oil to
his motor, quart at each stop. If
this man travelled Is miles to each
gallon of gas, which is probably his
average, then his oil will cost him, as
near as it can be figured, between a
fourth and fifth of what his gas
does, while with the Maxwell, based
on the record Mr.. Webb reports.
which is not at all unusual and the
low average of 20 miles per gallon OF
gas, his oil bill will only be, as near
as it can be figured in even cents, one
lfifty-ninth of his gasoline expense.
Just figure this in the course of q
years operation of the average car
$500 miles and see what the oil bill
will be. 1t will be just SO for the
years run on the Maxwell and S51
for the same mileage on the Other
car, figured on the present prices Of
gas at % cents and oil at the average
price of so cents, at retail in Ocala
This is only one of the many economic
features Of the Maxwell car.

CARRANzA TROOPS
REPORTED HOSTILE
Barbed Wire Barriers were Thrown
Across Roads and Truck Train
was Halted
ASSOCIATED Press)

Columbus, May 26.-Animosity on
the part of soldiers of some Car
rama commands along the Mexican
lines of communication has been en-
countered by American truckmen re-
Gently, according to stories brought
here. Near Neuve Casas Grandes,
120 miles south of the border, barbed
wire barriers have been thrown
across the roads several times. Last
Wednesday train commanded by
Captain r. B. Harper was halted by
a crowd in which were a number of
Carranza soldiers. The Americans
were jeered at and some stones were
thrown. No shots were fired, how
ever. The Americans proceeded with
out retaliating although stones struck
several.

last evening in the Baptist church,
where electric fans, ample seating
capacity and decorations of handsome

The playing of the young people
was excellent, accuracy in time and
finished technique was marked. Every
number was rendered without notes,
showing good training in memory.
Preceding each piece the player ex-
planned what the points of more inn
portance were. This method makes
clear to the mindtof the pupil and
hearer the Interpretation intended by
the composer.
The duets and trios are worthy of
special mention, the players keeping
together as one. Marie Robertson and
Christine Close very prettily explain
ed the musical games played in Miss
Porter's studio every Saturday morn
ing which teach notes, values, etc., as
a preparation for the study of har-
mony and thorough bass later.

given by Christine Close, May Slott,
Marie Robertson, Maude Gary, Ade-
lade Malever and Mary Lane, as an
illustration of rythm. The move
ments were done in perfect time and
pretty grace. Miss Porter and her

PRESIDENT TALKS
OF PEACE MOVE
Gives Impression that he Would En-
tertain Suggestions of Extending
His Good Offices
Associated Press)

Washington, May 26.-President
Wilson told callers today that the in
tervention of neutral in behalf of
peace in Europe could rest only on a
mutual understanding by the bellig-
erents that terms be arranged are to
conserve the interests of all, and of
the world at large, rather than those
of particular nation or group of ma
tions among the warning powers.
Mr.. Wilson did not disclose any
definite plan of action he may have
formulated in regard to peace, nor
authorize a formal statement of his
attitude. His callers gained an i'm
preston, however, that the president
would entertain suggestions that he
extend his good Offices to the bellig-
erents to bring about peace only when
the conditions he outlined were likely
of fuifillment.

BREAKING DOWN THE BARRIERS
Dixie Highway Association Busy Try.
ing to Clear a Thru Route
to Miami

Word has come from official circles
OF the Dixie Highway, in Chatta-
nooga, to the effect that President
Allison of the association has just
completed arrangements for the last
remaining county between Nashville
and Chattanooga, which provides def
nitely for the removal of the only
barrier to through travel from Chi
cago to Tallahassee. The counties are
going to work and by fall the high
way will be open for tourists to come
straight through.
There is still a barrier, however,
between Tallahassee and Gainesville.
Good roads must be had between
these places.
When the Central Florida Highway
Association convenes in Orlando June
%, reports will be called for on the
carrying out of the pledges of the
various counties to put their roads in
good condition. Where any county
has failed to meet the pledges and to
provide passable roads, the route of
the Dixie Highway will be changed,
and the backward sections may lose
this great road.
Commissioner McRae was recently
quoted as saying that something like
$4,000 automobiles were brought into
Florida by tourists this winter. Some
idea can be gained from these figures
of the number of motor cars that will
come through Ocala when the Dixie
| Highway is opened.

itia apparently ended the lynching

BUMPER CROPS
FOR MARION
Big Increase in Staples and
Livestock
AGENT REPORTS THAT COUNTY WILL CONTINUE TO LEAD N
GENERAL AGRICULTURE

1T looks as though the largest
corn crop in the history of the
the county will be produced this year,
ard while oats were very poor crop
the farmers appear determined to
have more and better hay than ever
before" said R. W. Blackjack, county
agent, U. S. department of agricul-
ture, when asked today for his opin-
ion on crop conditions in this coun-
ty,
Taking conditions all over the
county," Mr.. Blalock said, l think
that the farmers will produce more
beef and pork this year than ever be-
fore, and, with the better facilities
OF marketing promised, that they will
be greatly encouraged and that an
other year will find Marion county
still farther in the lead as a general
farming county"
Mr.. Blalock has been at work as
county agent for 13 weeks and is
pleased with the results he has been
able to obtain.
81 have had LA consultations in
my Office" he said, have written
338 letters, distributed 456 bulletins
and circulars, made 21 visits to dem
onstrators, "a visits to corn club boys,
held 16 meetings, visited 164 farm
Fers on their farms, and innoculated
coo head of hogs. In doing this work,
x have travelled 2456 miles by train
team and auto"
"The acreage devoted to general
farming is unusually large this year,
and the staple crops, as rule, are
in fine condition. The farmer who
broke his land deep, and early, has
without exception good crops, while
the man who neglected these two first
essentials of good farming suffered
rather severely from the drought.
"The peanut crop looks good, and
cotton is doing very well. Cane is not
up to standard at present, but is i'm
proving.
sThe truck crop has smaller part
in the county's agricultural program
this year than usual. The late frosts,
and dry weather, caused all truck to
be rather late The bean crop was
almost a failure, while the farmer
who gets busy and plants another
crop on the same ground vii recover
part of his loss. The tomato crop is
fairly good, and some growers are
beginning to ship. Watermelons and
cantaloupes have improved greatly
since the rains and a good crop is
expected.
"The live stock suffered their part
in the late drought, but the copious
rains have made wonderful improv-
ment. The amount of stock is steadi-
ly increasing, and by the introduction
of pure bred sires the quality is be-
ing rapidly improved. / find that the
idea of improving the breed is rapid
ly spreading, and I believe it will be
but afew years until the piney woods
hog and native cow will be hard to
find in Marion county.
''The hog crop is especially fine this
year, and if the cholera remains un-
| der control and the farmers will take
measures to prevent too large loss
from worms and lice, the amount of
pork produced in the county will be
far in excess of any previous year."
