Mr. Hill has been peculiarly un- fortunate fn all his maritime un- der ings, To this day, the topic of inland sea transportation is a sore subject with the great railroad magnate and empire builder.

In the face of all this, it is inter- esting to wateh the developments of this latest “sore thumb.” The question ts, Is J. D. Farrell strong enough to “square himself for his latest comedy of errors?
