 Newspaper, Have Failed

NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-The eff forts of an immigrant genius to build a newspaper which would stand as monument to his ideals seems to have failed.
 The three New York Worlds, morning, evening and Sunday, are for sale by Herbert Joseph Pulitzer, Jr.. and Ralph Pulitzer, sons Of Joseph Pulitzer, who founded the newspapers in 1883.
 The two sons have asked the Surrogate Court to allow them to sell the goodwill and circulation of the newspapers to the Scripps- Howard chain for an estimated S5.O00,000 said to be the largest ever offered for a newspaper in this country considering the title and goodwill only.
 The Scripps- Howard chain would not purchase the physical property
 The three newspapers are said to be losing SSH ,000 annually. With a remaining surplus of only $50O,- 900, the court was told the three newspapers could publish for only 90 days.
 Paul Block is said to have of- fered $50O,000 more than the amount offered by the Scripps- Howard group.

LINCOLN ROUTE FIXED
Commission Adopts Plan Broached
Fifteen Years Ago.

The Lincoln Memorial Highway
commission appointed by Governor
Harry G. Leslie to mark the nligra-
tory trail in Indiana Travelled by the
Lincolns in 1916 and 1880 announces
it has adopted tentatively the route
designated by the Cravens-Weik
commission appointed by Governor
Samuel M. Ralston fifteen years
ago. The points on the route are
Troy, south of Anderson creek; Lin
coin City, Dale, Jasper, Ireland, OF
well, Algiers, Petersburg and Vim
cennes.
In view of the fact that the Ken
lucky and Illinois commissions have
not as yet made final reports as to
where the Lincolns crossed the Ohio
and Wabash rivers, respectively, the
Indiana commission has found it
necessary to include in the tentative
route sections of road which will
connect with both the Kentucky
and Illinois projects.
