From the start the men fought Industri- ously, though not furiously, and for the first eight rounds it was impossible to chpose a favorite. During all that time Ryan played incessantly for the body, Leon- ard always for the head. In_'the ninth round, however, Ryan changed his tactics, and put hia right to Leonard's nose four times hard, grogging him. Joe recovered in the tenth and showed fairly well, but Ryan hurt his ear at the end of the round, and it bothered him. The fight had turned all Ryan's way, but Leonard was gane, and came up each round seemingly less groggy than before. This lasted till the fifteenth, when Ryan floored Joe with a right hand swing on the upper jaw. Leonard took the count and rose, but was down again {n a few seconds from a loft jab in the nose. He took the count agaln and started to rise. Ryan mean- while stood very close, and before Leonard was off his knees he landed again on the nose. Joe went back down and Referee Rothery gave him the fight on a foul. Both Ryan's eyes were blacked, but he was in good trim, while Leonard was grog: Frank Colller, Jack Cowan and Terry Mustain were behind Leonard, while H. C. Rouselot, Jimmy Toman and Dave Cal- boun took care of Ryan. Eddle Gardner was on hand to challenge the winmer. As preliminaries Harry Mack won a tame battle royal by six colored men, George Miller of South Omaha and Jack Cowan of Blanchard, la,, went four rounds to a d and Young Stafford secured the decis over Claude Grayson after four rounds, in all the best of it.

LOUIS, Jan. 24.—~Two distinct shocks of earthquake were felt in 8t. Louls and in many of the towns in the immediate vicin ity a few minutes before 5 o'clock th morning. The first shock was light. The second was more severe. 1t awakened pe sons who had slept through the first shock and got them out of bed. The shocks were accompanied by a rumbling. Reports recelved show that the shocks were very generally felt throughout the city and suburbs. The shocks caused the rattling of crockery and swinging of pic- tures. In Chamberlain park the shocks were noticeable, In many houses families gath- ered In one room immediately after the first shock, but nome were sufficlently alarmed to take to the street Fred Ruble, the night operator at the weather bureau, whose ofica is on the top of the federal building, noted the shocks at the time. He sald both came belween 4 and 6 o'clock. Dr. Hyatt, the local Weather bureau chief, says an acquaintance of his from Clifton Helghts reported that the shocks there were very severe and several persons went into thelr yards, fearing the houses would be shaken down. The shocks were felt distinctly in the tri-cities, across the river, In Illinofs. Cashier W. J. Blel of the First National bank at Granite City says that he was walting for breakfast in the office of Lauff's hotel, across from the bank. “At 5 o'clock,” sald Mr. Lauff, “I heard the doors and windows rattle and thought there was something wrong at the rolling mill. 1 went to the door and looked out Then I realized that it was an earthquak The shock lasted about a minute.” Druggist A. M. Harlan of Madlison said: “Mrs. Harlan and I were just getting up when we felt a tremor of the house. The windows rattled, the doors seemed to shake as it someome was tapping them. We thought at first that the house was going to fall down and were alarmed.” In Venice bulldings shook and windows rattled so that residents belleved an ex- plosion had occurred in the neighborhoods Felt in Other Places. The earthquake was felt very distinctly at Alton, 11l In the west end of that city on the bluffs the vibrations were moat se- vere. Captaln D, R. Sparks, who lives on the bluffs, sald: I was awakened suddenly about 4:45 a. m. 1 first heard a slight rumbling, then the house trembled. nally so great was the vibration that the members of the family got ready to take ‘to the pireet. Everything in the Nouse that could forth a sound aided the din. It seeme if the shock lasted half & minute. Possibly it was not so long. was very severe. In the east end of Auun. where the popu- lation is more dense, nearly every one left their beds and some got into the street. Some of the negroes thought the end of the world had come. Nearly everybody in Belleville, II1., felt the shock. The time given generally was about 5 a. m. Belleville is honeycombed with coal mines and there was probably more excitement here than elsewhere when the nature of the visitation was realized. KANSAS CITY, Jan. 24.cWhat s be- lleved to have been an earthquake shock was experienced in the northeast extremity of the city early this morning. The move- ment was slight and no damage resulted. ST. JOSEPH, Jan. 24.—Barly this morn- ing a rumbling noise passed over St. Jo- seph, awakening many families into the be- lef that a tornado was coming. The nois however, was but momentary and no dam- uge resulted. It is generally supposed to have been some seismic disturbance. LEAVENWORTH, Kan., Jan. 24.—A dis- tinct earthquake shock, accompanied by a low rumbling sound, was experiepced in Leavenworth about 5 o'clock this morning and In nearby towns. Lum Evans, a farmer, while driving to town felt the shock when near Beverly. It was so severe, he says, that it frightened the horees. No damaxe is reported. QUINCY, 11, Jan. 24.--There was a pr nounced carthquake shock here at 4:40 th morning. The selsmic disturbance lasted nearly a miaute 4 the oscillation was from east to west. The shaking of walls was perceptible in many places. SPRINGFIELD, 1Il, Jan. 24.—An earth- quake shock was distinctly felt by a num- ber of residents of Springfield at exactly § o'clock this morning.

At 12:40 the commission teok a recess tin 2 p. m. Mr. J. J. Hill took thy and at 2 o'clock. Much time was consumed with routine e aminations to show his ofMcial relations with the Great Northern, Northern Pacific and Burlington companies. Mr. Hill was questioned as to the re- Iation of the Northern Securities company, the Burlington, the Northern Pacific and the Great Northern to each other. He sald that the Northern Securities company owned no stock in the Chicago, Burlington & Quiney Rallway company (the new com- pany), but owned the stock of the Chlcago, Burlingten & Quincy Rallroad company (the old corperation). He explained that the new company was roally a union of the three lines, which formed the old company, and operated the latter by virtue of a le The halt of the stock of the old company not owned by the Northern Securities company, the witness sald, was owned by the Nerthern Pacific ccmpany. In the new company, he sald, the Great Northern and Northern Patific were the chiet atockholders, having issued a joint bond to cover the purchase price of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Rallroad company. These two compani as stock- holders, elect the directers of the Burling. ton. ‘here were approximately 19,000 stock- holders in the old Burlington,” sald Mr. HilL "It was Impossible to buy the stoclk, amounting to about $100,000,000 in the open market and another plan was adopted, re- sulting in the sale of the property like a plece of real estat The Northern Pa- cific and Great Northern rallroads lssue $216,000,000 joint bonds to pay for it Had to Buy B In explaining his reasons for the pur- of the Burlington Mr. Hill went back time when he found it necessary to lohr & low rate to the timber men of Oregon ) | ATURDAY and Washingion to got loads for cars which bad originaliy gone west, laden with mer- a chandiss He In order to put ourselves in a « tion we had to buy the Burlington gave us the markot for our western stuff that we had to bring back, and it affo us @ connection in the east with all the producers, fnd it complemented conditions that were' necessary He also dwelt on the paramount impor. tance of the coal problem in conmection with the operation of rallroads. and sal We were far from coal and far from a market for timber.

Perhaps you can tell me of a road which reaches Iowa points better than the Burlington—I know of none. Mr. Day attempted to show, by a long Iine of questions, that the reason for taking over the Burlington was to form a sort of trust, whereby northwestern rates would be absolutely in the hands of Mr. Hill and his friends.

To this Mr. Hill relterated his previous statement concerning the purchase of the Mr. Day—Is It true that before you pur- chased the Burlington you were proposing to buy the St. Paul? “No, 6ir.

JONN W. BULL. The Discoverer of the Famous | Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup. Dr. John W. Bull, who discovered DR. BULL'S COUGH BYRUP (0 yearsago, was | the most successful doctor of throat and | lung diseases the world has ever known. He had a national reputation on account | of the wonderful cures he made In cases| of chronie throat trouble and so-called in- curable consumption. Dr. Bull dlscovered the formula which he used so success- tully for many years after long practice and untiring scientific study. It has ever since been known as DR. BULL'S COUGH SYRUP. No other doctor or chemist has ever been able te compound any prepara- tion containing the curative qualities of DR. BULL'S COUGH 8YRUP. No other formula has ever been discovered that so eftectively cutes all diseases of the throat and lungs as DR. BULL'S COUGH SYRUP. There is no case of hoarseness, cough, catarrh, asthma, bronchiti. quinsy, whcoping cough, croup, measl the St. Paul's stock, were you or your col- leagues not endeavoring to secure the St. Paul “'No, sir. The firat thing I heard of It an officer connected with the St. Paul asked us to take it and I told him no. Mr. Day then asked the witne if, after the agreement to organize the Northern Se- curities company had been reached, he had exercised any control over or given any in- structions to the managing officers of the Northern Pacific regarding its operation. Given Advice, Not Orders, Mr. Hill replied that he had issued no instructions of any kind to the ofclals of the Northern Pacific. He also declared that he had issued no Instructions to the offi- clals of the Burlington, but when they had come to bim ‘“for advice” they had re- celved it. Occasionally he had wolunteered Indvlu and “thought’ they would listen to t. The witness then entered into a lengthy dissertation on the effects of competition, as he had observed it. Commissioner Clements repeatedly ques- tioned his assertion that competition does not Tower rates or tend to lower them, but each time the veteran waved his eye glasses emphatically and reiterated his statement. “The railroad is a sort of mercurial In- dictator of the country tributary to it,” he declared. “It the country is poor, the rallroad will be poor. A low rate is not the result of competition. It merely shows how low a rate the rallroad can afford to give. Do you suppose that & man in absolute conm- trol of a railroad having no competition could raise rates to an unjust degree and prosper? The minute be did it he would bamper the commerce on which his road lived, and when be did that you would hear of a road passing its dividend. “It Is & principle that a road must give the lowest rate it can.

We went out there and Investigated, and demonstrated that the complaint was just and otdnrod & reduction to a ‘reasonable you say. What happened? The roads paid no attention to it and the courts decided that our ruling could not be en- forced." ““Well,” Mr. Hill answered, laughing, "I was talking of what ought to be, and of what I am willing and anxious to bring about. It these rates cannot be enforced w should be fixed so that it can be Mr. Hill averred, in answer to further In- terrogation in regard to ti fects of com- petition that commercial war between roads really resulted in higher tariff Rebate Part mpett “They cut each other to the heart, he, “and then patch up an whereby everything Is higher than eve The rebate system Is a part of competitive warfare, and you know the rates the gen- eral shipper gets thereby. He pays the freight which the large shipper has dodged. Roads are bound to hustle for business and they will do much to secure the patronage of a large shipper.” Mr. Hill was then asked If any agree: ment had been made, expressly or other- wise, respecting the division of traffic or earnings which’ involve the Northern Pa- clfic, the Great Northern or the Burlington. He replied: “No understanding, directly or indirectly.” “Or with the Union Pacific e; em? he ' he replied. He also declared that to the best of his recollection the Great Northern had never bad a trafic agreement with any other rall- road. Power of Directors Chairman Knapp then produced a copy of the charter of the Northern Securities compny. and asked Mr. Hill if he recalled provision in the by-laws declaring that lh. right of a shareholder to Inspect the books of the corporation shall be subject to the will of the directors. Mr. Hill said he was not aware that such & provision existed in the charter.
