Too Rapidly
nv Associnted PressI

New Orleans, Dec. 21.-Unless the
railroads are able to realize the re-
turns on their investment that make
possible the securing of new capital,
they will be unable to keep pace with
the growing demands for rail trans
portation, declared c. w. Markham,
president of the Illinois Central
Railroad company, who is here today
on an inspection tour.
He declared there is radical ele-
ment working to bring about govern

making it impossible for them to be
successfully under private control.
The radical element, he said. is en-

REVISION Of WAR
COLLEGE: Of n AVY
ON IN WASHINGTON
Growing Importance of
us. in World Makes
1t Necessary
CRy Associated Pressl

Washington, Dec. 2l.-By direction
Of Assistant Secretary Roosevelt, of
the navy department, high naval Of
ficers, including Admiral Jones, COM
Infanding the new consolidated United
States fleet, Rear Admiral Wilson,
superintendent of the naval academy;
Major General LeJune, commandant
of the marine corps, and Rear Ad-
miral Washington, chief of the bu-
reau of navigation, are meeting in
Washington, it was learned today, to
consider revision of the naval war
college courses and general over
hauling of the instruction system for
naval staff officers.
In his letter calling the meeting,
Mr.. Roosevelt said that "the increas-
ing Importance of the United States
position in international world poll
tics, among other reasons made it
necessary that naval officers have a
thorough grounding in the principles
of strategy and tactics" He added
that he believed the conference of Of
ficers would find it desirable to rec
ommend certain extensions of work
at the navy war college, as well as in
other navy schools, for this purpose.
In outlining the general subject of
the conference Mr.. Roosevelt said
that one of the points to be consid-
cred would be creation of a new
course for younger officers on shore
somewhat along the lines of the
army staff colleges" and that anoth-
er would be creation of a tactical
school of the fleet. Cooperation
between the army and navy war col
leges also was to be discussed.

Cattle Starving
Along the River,
Declares Resident

Between New Creek and Lake
Como can be found more than dog
en- skeletons of beeves that have
fallen because they were too weak
to stand" says G. F. Parker, who
conducts fishing business in that
section.
Mr.. Parker came into Palatka
this morning to learn if there was
any law by which man would be
forced. to care for his cattle. The
stock he had reference to are alleg-
ed to belong to resident of st.
Augustine, who appears to make no
provision for the lack of grazing.
Something should be done to this
man," continued Mr.. Parker. "His
stock wanders about the country and
does lots of damage to groves, and
gardens and crops. This morning
found my grove in bad shape from
what his cattle had done. Some Of
his stock are SO weak that if they
leave the tree against which they
are leaning they will fall down; and
once they are down there is nothing
that will save them.
"It is nothing less than awful
cruelty, the way in which these cat
tie are abused. Sometimes they go
in the river tol feed on the hyacinths
and sometimes they fall and drown
because they are too weak to get up.
1t seems to me there should be some
law that would handle this case and
meka that ST. Augustine man pay
some attention. to his stock before
the entire road is lined with the
skeletons"

The search. thus far has been un-

State authorities and detectives
sent several months ago to inveSti-
Ngate the disappearance of Daniels
and Richards would not affirm or
deny reports that the bodies of the
two men had been located but it was
reported they had intimated that
they have reason to believe that the
hooded band which kidnapped the
missing men killed them and threw
their bodies into the lake. Two iron
wheels of an old farm wagon which
were lying nearby on its bank are
said to have disappeared the night
Of the kidnaring it is the belief OF
the authorities that these may have
been used as weights to hold the
bodies beneath the surface Of the
water.
An expert diver employed by the
state authorities arrived here last
night with his diving equipment and
will start to work this morning to
explore the lake bed.
Captain W. w. Cooper, in COM

his helpers. Official information
received by Governor John H. Par

against representatives of the state
who were investigating the kidnap-
ing of Daniels and Richards, was one
of the many unconfirmed reports
circulated here as the reason for the
sending of troops to this place. The
threats, it was said, came from per-

Engelken's Bank
to Double Capital
Stock to $500, 900

The following extract from an ar
eicle in the Lexington (Ky.) Herald
of last Sunday will be of interest
to the friends of Mr.. and Mrs. En-
gelken;
The capital stock of the Kentucky
Joint Stock Land Bank will be dou-
bled in January, F. H. Engelken,
vice-president and manager, SAID
yesterday. The Land Bank, which
was organized here May 1, 1922,
with a capital of $250,00O and sur
plus of $4,000 has shown the great
est development for that length of
time of any organization of it's kind
in the country, said Mr.. Engelken.
At a recent meeting of the board
Of directors a three per cent semi
annual dividend was declared, pay
able January l, which is accepted
by the Land Banks stockholders as
EVIDENCE of its rapid growth, and
promise of future progress.
Mr.. Engelken explained that the
law provides that an organization
of this kind may issue bonds to the
amount of Is times the capital stock
and surplus and that by the middle
of January $4,5OO,00O in bonds will
have been issued, making it neces-
sary to increase the capital stock in
order to further continue operation.
He said that this would be necessa-
ry particularly in view of the fact
that the organization has $9,000,O00
in approved loans.
