PASSENGERS FROM 4 SWIFTLY SPEEDING CAR ol and Coach Dashes president Is UNION PICFI THRES TRAFFE RN A A b, relations CHICAGO, Fe -In connection with the between Island and the Southern Pacific it devel- new the oped to-day that the Harriman interests opened the Denver and Cheyenne gate- way to Rock Island freight traffic two months ago. The arrangements whereby the Rock Island now turns over freight to the Union Pacific at these points wers cempleted in Chi B0 Formerly the Denver and Rio Grande secured all of the Rock Island through freight. Now the condition is changed and the Union Pacific is the recipient of the bulk of it. The traffic agreement whereby the Rock Island exchanges traf- fic with the Unfon Pacific does not in- clude passenger business, which still is handled by the Denver and Rio Grande except that which originates at Memphis. It is understood that a tentative move has been m@¥e by the Union Paclfic to- the Burlington through the Denver gate- thereby completing the list of Den- hicago roads. Nominations by the President.

He s from my own district and naturally I went to him with a request that he in troduce a bill for my relief. Then politics developed for’the first time in my ejgh- teen years' sbrvice in the nav. “Bankhead startled me by not only re- fusing to introduce the measure, but to have anything to do with it. Not only that, but I have absolute proof that his { secretary, who is a correspondent for sev- eral Alabama papers, sent forth stories calculated to reflect on my position, at- tacking the sincerity of my desire to get out and intimating that I was only anx- icus to get'free to run for Congress and ®o into politics. T also knew that it was Bankhead who organized the opposition to and caused the defeat of my bill.” Secretary Moody has decided in view of Captain Hobson's declination to recon- sider his proffered resignation, to accept the same. He will take occasion formally to record the navy's high appreciation of the officer's worth to President Roosevelt. it is known that he has already expressed himself to the German Minister as being heartily opposed to this request, and that he regards it as untenable. 1 an escape from an embarrassing positi My | | THE INJURED.
