Worlds Debt to Richard Burton.

Richard Burton, to whom the world
is indebted for a vast fund of infor-
nation, gained while on his exploring
expeditions in the Far East, died Oc-
tober 20. 1890. Burton acquired a
familiar acquaintance with the lam
guage of the Orient, and in this way
was equipped to make explorations in
Arabia in the guise of an Afghan pill
grim One of his Journeys, in 1859,
led to the discovery of Lake flanagan
yika and the opening up of the east
ern part Of Africa. Burton left behind
numerous books which described his
journeys and gave an insight to those
countries that had never before been
given.

The situation today is very different; we are not recognized by the United States. but we have the respect and confidence of the American people, and would rather have the respect and confidence of the people of the United States than official recognition of the government

 This situation was clearly reflected in the figures as to farms in the coun- try. which was also made public to- day. These placed the total of farms at 6.459.99S an increase of only 9s,496. or l.5 per cent in ten years. as against an increase of 624, 1S0. or 1O.9 per cent during the decade ending in 1910.
 Few Changes Expected
 Mir. Rogers stated that while todays figures were preliminary and subjett to revision, the final official population as transmitted to congress in Decem- bor for appOrtionment purposes was not likely to be greatly different.
 Revised figures for a number of cities and counties are yet to be an- nouncel but the main work of the 1920 census is completed after nine months of labor

J. $. WILL WITHHOLD TREASURY PAYMENTS
 TO THE RAILROADS
[RepublIcan A. P. Leased wIrel


 WASHINGTON, Oct. 7.-Treasury payments to railroads under guaranty provisions of the transportation act will be held up under a ruling today by Comptroller of the Treasury War wick until final accounting of losses sustained during the guarantee period is made. Officials estimated that ap- proximately s6O0,000.00 was involved.
 Carriers already have received s130,- O0o,000 under the guaranty provisions paid in he form of advances against estimated deficits incurred prior to September 1, when the guaranty ex- pired. Mir. Warwick's decision held that failure of any road to have ob- tained adequate advances was no fault of the treasurH and therefore that Secretary Houston was not compelled to make further payments "piecemeal" ?"
 ''I think the law contemplated the adjudication and final settlement of these claims as soon as practicable after the expiration of the guaranty period" the decision stated. ssThe needs of certain carriers for funds is recognized, but this office may <not construe the law to authorize the pay ment of public money except in such amounts and such times as congress has authorized by law, no matter how urgent the needs of claimants"
 To permit payments ''piecemeal'' would entail "a never ending revision of the carriers accounts by the inter- state commerce commission, the comp troller said. adding thatit must be as- sumed that since the law made pro- visions for protecting the government where advances were made against es- timated deficits prior to Sept. l, it would have carried a similar provision for the governments protection against over payment had. it been intended to make payments similar to advances pfter the guaranty period ended.

 LOS ANGELES. Oct. '. - Harvey Davis lieutenant of police detectives, said tonight he was inclined to disbe- lieve the confession reported to have been made in San Francisco by Joseph Rodriguez that he killed Jacob c. Dem ton, mining promoter. He said man of that name who he believed to be the same person under arrest in San Francisco, had made ''confessions' in other cases here and that the tales had been disproved
 The records of the east side jail here show that a Joseph Rodriguez, alias Carillo. was a prisoner there from May II to September 12, on a charge of petty larceny Davis said this was the per- son he believed was in San Francisco.
 W. c. Doraa, chief deputy district attorney. said tonight he took 'very little stock in the confession alleged to have been madAat San Francisco by Joseph RodriglHk that Rodriguez and another man killed Jacob C. Dem ton. mining promoter. last June. He said no warrants would be issued on the strength of Rodriguez statement until it had been investigated further.
 Mir. Doran said that as far as he had been able to ascertain Rodriguez-is a professional confessor."
 "l nave sent a IldH lo otAh Tran cisco, however, to investigate the story and am by no means disregarding it. Mir. Doran added.
 Mir. Doran said he had interviewed one of the persons named in Rodri- guez' confession, with the result that a flat denial was made. Others, he de- |, clared. would probably be questioned tonight He emphasized that no arrests were expected as the result of the de- velopments in San Francisco.
