! Says that the Kansas City, Mexico &
Orient Construction is Rapidly Prog-
ressing—Why the Pullman is the
Safest Pisco to Ride—Minor Men-
j tion.
The enclosed letter from Mr. E.
Dickinson, vice president and general
manager of the Kansas City, Mexico
& Orient Railway company, of date
December 24, 19<*::. and addressed to
the Hon. Enrique C. Creel, City of
Mexico, Is an official contradiction of
; the report emanating from El Paso
jto the effect that orders had been
received from the New York office
jto cease work on the Kansas City,
, Mexico & Orient on account of lack
i of funds:
"I enclose a copy of a press dls-
! patch just received here, also copy of
■ telegram just received from laical
: Manager .1. L. Case showing that the
dark reached the eighty-seventh kilo-
met, r last rilgbt. For your Informa-
j Hon will say that Contractor Wehb
expects to finish the grading for the
j second fifty kilometers east of Chi-
huahua nest week and has orders to
continue on to the ll2t,h kilometer,
at which point u fation will lie es-
tnlvPahcd in order to lake care of the
business to and from the mines In
that section of the country. Con-
tractor Shaw will probably finish the
one hundred kilometers Irom Mtnaca
west within thirty or sixty days. Of !
course we have contradicted this re-
port In the Associated Press dispatch
but we are at a loss to know where
they originate and tor what purpose.
, We have an Idea that these reports
| emanate from some antagonistic rail-
way source and sometimes they have
the appearance of originating In Chi-
j htiehmi. Would ft not be A good plan
j for you to pend out a strong denial,
i such denial from yon would carry
j great Weight throughout the Cnlted
‘f ates and lie* of material assistance
! to us. There is no inti ntion of stop
, puig the work, in fact, we expect very
non to be In position to push it
harder than ever.
With kind regards, and wishing
you a incrrV Christmas and tl happy
New Year, t am.
Very truly voary

WILL PLEAD TECHNICALITIES.
Dietrich’s Defense Will Be that He
Was Not Senator at Time of
Alleged Crimes.
Omaha, Neb., Jan. 6.—When the
Indictment charging Senator Charles
H. Dietrich with alleged bribery iu
connection with the Hastings. Neb.,
postoffice appointment Is called on
Thursday, the detenae will refuse to
admit Dietrich had become a United
States senator when tae alleged tran-
sactions took place.
The charge is made In the indict-
ment that Sr natof-Dietrich negotiated
with Fisher early as January of the
year in which the legislature elected
Dietrich to the position of senator.
General Cowin. who represents Sena-
tor Dietrich, contends that there
could he no violation in the build-
ing lease charge, basing his conten-
tion on the same grounds as in the
bribery chorgo. This question prob-
ably will be the rst to be adjudicated
when court convenes Thursday.
HAIR TELLS CHARACTER.
Color of Hair Said to Indicate a Per-
son's Temperament.
Many people believe that blonde, or
light hair denotes affection and dark
hair constancy. A person without hair
is not devoid of character; far from it.
The disposition of the average bald-
headed man is to show such solicitude
for the welfare of others, that he
neglects himself. A germ causes bald-
ness. Prof. Sabouraud, of Paris,
France, Innoculated a rabbit with Dan-
druff germs, causing it to become to-
tally bald in five weeks’ time. To rid
the scalp of these dangerous germs
it Is necessary to apply Newbro’s ller-
picide.

Safety in the Pullmans.
A prominent official of the Pullman
company who happened to be in 131
Paso yesterday when the news of
the Rock Island wreck In Katina1-
reached here, 'pointed out the iael
that not a one of tin- paKsongors who
were riding In the sleeping cars wore
killed and but one or two were in-
jured In speaking of the fact he said:
“Home time ago .he legislature of
the state of New York passed a bill
compelling the Pullman company, lo
j <■,instruct the cars that were used
I In that, stale In a more substantial
manner and stating that the Pullman
ears as now constructed were nothing
Init death trapff in the ease of an
accident
"The officials of the company in
New York took the matter up with
the railroad commission of that state
and It was shown that of till the pas-
sengers carried in the state ol New
York only two were at all seriously
Injured In wrecks In that slat" In
the ear just closed.
‘This can be carried down to every
state In the United States. Look at
nil the wrecks that have occurred ]
in the vicinity of El Paso within the |
nast few years. Take the Maxson I
Springs disaster of two years ago. |
There was not a Pullman passenger ,
in all the train injured, while many '
of ihose In the day coaches wore
killed.
"In all the wrecks that have oc-
curred in the north recently it can
tie shown that the percentage of the
Pullman passengers that were hurt
was very small indeed.
"The only wreck that has occurred
in Texas in recent years when any
Pullman passengers were hurt that
at present comes to my mind is that
at LaCoste, near Sun Antonio, Inst
spring, when the Pullman on the rear
end was bumped Into nnd several of
the passengers were killed. Still the
fatality was not ns great as would
have been the case had it been a day
coach that was struck.
“There are several causes for this.
One and the principal Is that the
Pullman cars are very much more
tronglv built than those that are
used by the railroads as day coaches.
Then their position on the train pro-
tects them from almost every acci-
dent that is at all probable to occur.
If it is a head-on collision they are
too far from the trouble lo he injured
by the colliding engine and they are
to strongly, constructed to he tele-
scoped.
“A fair example of the practically
total immunity of the. Pullman pas-
senger from injury might lie stated
that only six people out of 32,000,000

TO STOP PRICE-CUTTING.
Proprietors of Patent Medicines Are
Studying Means to Restrain
Retailers.
Now York. Jan. fi.—Retail druggists
throughout the country will watch
with interest the remits of a plan I
put Into effect in New York city I
this week by the largest manufac- |
turers of proprietary, or patent, modi- j
clnes, to stop the cutting of prices
on such articles by druggists and de-
partment stores. This is the first
time that the proprietors themselves
have taken a direct Interest In the
solution ol the cut-rate problem. Here-
tofore they have “supported" move-
ments conducted hv others, notably
the National Retail Druggists’ asso-
ciation. but that support has invari-
ably been more or less lukewarm.
Now. however, about twelve or fifteen
of the leading manufacturing houses
have come together, contributed to a
substantial fund for carrying out their
plans, and are preoared to compel the
aggressive cutter to live up to a min-
imum price schedule. If persuasion
fails to bring a cutter into line the
manufacturers, individually, will cut
off his supplies of their goods, or at
least make a determined effort to do
so.

which all shrewd buyers should take advantage. The
