(continued from First Page)

ocean and rail routes to the southwest and southeast.
 "A great many experienced and wise traffic men, financiers, and ex- periented business men who have been interviewed on this project, have either failed to take any definite stand or frankly admitted that they were not well enough informed to attempt the manipulation of eighteen billion dollars worth of somebody else's property and juggle with one of the most important industries we have, which is railroad transportation.
 "The writer was informed that Pro- lessor Ripley of Harvard. in under taking this work, expressed grave doubts as to his ability to offer any thing that would be acceptable. These were not his exact words as re- peated to me, but that was their pur- port. q
 Let us hope that no snap judgment will be taken. and that all parties in- terested, including those who own the railroads, finance them and oper- ate them, as we'll as the people who use them, be given full voice and that in case of doubt we let we'll enough alone"

ALIEN VOTES FORTY YEARS

Denver, Nov. 29.--After voting in city, state and national elections and performing numerous other duties of citizenship for more than forty years, w. N. w. Blaney wealthy stockman and financier of this city has filed application for naturalization papers in the United States District court here. Blaney was born in Ireland but was taken to Chicago by his parents when he was three years old.
 He was required recently to show proof of his citizenship when he ap- peared to file on a piece of govern ment land. Writing to Chicago, where he believed his father had taken out citizenship papers many years ago, he learned that the record of this ac- ton had been destroyed in the fam ous fire of 1871.

PRINCES FATE IN DOUBT
Nothing Is Known as to Greek Gov ernment's Plans for Disposing of Andrews Case.

London, Nov. o9.--(By Associated Press. )--Whether Prince Andrew of Greece will have to stand trial on charges of disobeying orders of the Greek general staff in the Asia Minor campaign isN still an unanswered question here. The prince was arrest ed at Corfu late in October and taken to Athens. No word as to his prob able fate has been received from Ath- ems since a dispatch of November 22, which said that the prince would be tried by court martial when the trial of the former cabinet ministers was completed.
 The secretary of the Greek lega- ton here said yesterday he was with out information but that inasmuch that the prince was not in the list of those condemned yesterday it would seem he had been acquitted.
 The secretary added that others in volved in the charges who escaped the supreme penalty were presumably al- so acquitted. but that he had no au- lucrative word
 A Central News dispatch ffom Athens says that F. o. Lindley, Brit ish minister to Greece, has left for Lausanne to confer with Lord Curzon, the British foreign secretary.
