P. Morgan knows. a »d the probability Is that he has not decided the matter yet. There Is little doubt that the advice of J. J. Hill will h.iv* great weight with Mr. Morgan In ! "aMng the selection for the big place. Tills state of affairs makes the field hun which the new president can be 'iioypn an exceedingly wide one. J. P. Morgan and J. J. Hill are closely a**su- •iaU'd In the railroad world, nnd some f the big roads that are controlled whiter by Hill or Morgan are the North- ’ n Pacific, the Great Northern, the Burlington, the Erie and the South- In the offlccs of these roads are men may be called to nil Mr. Hpen- 11 i s place. That the selection of the ■ "it to fill (t will be made cautiously •ti'i only after due deliberation, is as- ■*tired. In the meantime, the records ■ nd services of the big railroad men In th<- systems just mentioned will be gone "no probability is that the selection i man outside of the present execu- corps of the Southern will result 1,1 a complete reorganization of the '•wcutfve corps. If thlH happens, how- " t. It is believed that it will come ’dually. •) realization of the heavy responsi bilities on the president of the Houth- 11 Is obtained from the knowledge ! >t the road owns, controls and op- ' : /'tes about 0,000 miles of track and 200 mites of steamship routes. FINLE Y IS IN CHAR GE OF SOUTHERN ROAD Just who will succeed President Spencer In heading the Southern rail way Is causing no little speculation, nnd although nothing definite has yet been announced it Is believed bv those In a position to know that W. W. Finley, second vice president of the toad, of Washington, D. C., will be elected. First Vice President A. B. Andrews, ft is said, does not want the responsi bilities that go with such a high office because of his advanced years, and as INCREASE NEARLY Mr. Finley took charge of the actual management of the road upon the death of President Spencer, many people posted on railroad affaire believe he will succeed to the presidency. Than Mr. Finley few railroad men In the country are better known, and for The remarkable Increase of $3,726,051.57 in years he f has been ft_Promfnent figure the hank clearings of this mouth over those .. -» * - *-• -* * 0 f iho same month of hat year la shown ATTEMPT TO KILL El BE as been a resident of Washington for many years and has long been asso ciated with President Spencer In di recting the affairs of the system. BELIEVE BODY WILL REST IN CITY OF WASHINGTON It is the general Impression among the officials of the Southern In At lanta nnd the friends of the late Sam uel Spencer that his remains will be burled in Washington, D. C\ The wid ow' has a beautiful home in Massachu setts street, In that city, nnd the belief prevails that the funeral and Inter ment will take place in that cly. While Mr. Spencer was born in Co lumbus. On., and he had many relatives there, when he became the executive head of the Southern system ha made his headquarters in Washington, where the general offices were located. When the residence was built In Massachu setts street by Mr. Spencer it was un derstood that he recognized that city as his home. No definite funeral arrange ments have been announced. PREPARE FOR WAR, IS THESUGGESTlOf OF BUREAU CHIEF United States Should Be Ready Is Idea of Converse.

If the principles of the block system followed conscientiously accidents '/ this kind are Impossible. It was for b purposp thut the system was «*** 'aWished.
