Entered at Richmond, Ind., Postofflce As Second Class Mail Matter. RETIRIBUTION FOR ROGERS. II. H. Rogers, Standard Oil magnate, originator and promoter of the Amalgamated Copper trust with Its
record of hundreds ruined, and all around Wall street shark, lies at his home a very sick man and, according to rumor, loser to the extent of $40,000,000. Mr. Rogers lias been one of the chief worshippers at the shrine of rotten finance and, during his long financial career, has foisted many watter-logged financial ventures on the American public. When these condemned financial crafts foundered Rogers was always safely ashore, the gainer by millions, and his victims, mostly widows and men of small means, went clown with the ship. Often those who accomp?nied the wreck to Its financial graveyard carried with
them the savings of others which had
been entrusted to their care, leaving
behind betrayed friends and a dis
honored family. Hut Rogers, secure In his fortress of ill gotten money, worried not and went serenely on his
way planning and launching newer
and rottener financial crafts to join
his great supken fleet. . Today Mr. Rogers is said to be a ner
vous wreck, due to the exposures of his rotten financial methods and the attitude of the people who, besides viewing
him with the contempt he richly deserves, are trying through their public
officers to force him In a measure to make restitution, and to place laws about him that will regulate his con
duct In the future. Maybe on his sick bed he is visited by visions of the victims of his many financial murders who exhibit the ghastly wounds he made the wound in the widow's trust and confidence in a man whose wealth and veneered character misled her into Investing her little mite with him the wound in the embezzler's honor who thought he could follow the example of the man "higher up" with the same good fortune and the same immunity from the law. All these things are possibilities and if they are making Mr. Rogers' sick bed a bed of torture it is but retribution for the' many people he has tortured so heartlessly and so cold bloodedly. Again it may be that the Infinite wisdom of the only One who knows our Innermost thoughts perceived that the loss of money alone wouuld punish Mr. Rogers, and caused him to lose, as reported, $40,000,000, an amount, the loss of which is probably equivalent in worry and distress to Mr. Rogers to the much smaller sums he caused poorer people to lose. Either way, however, it looks as though justice slowly, but surely, is being meted out to H. H. Rogers.

NEWS OF THE RAILROADS
AN EXCURSION TO CHICAGO.
THE PENNSYLVANIA WILL RUN
ONE NEXT SATURDAY NIGHT.
it May Be the Last of the SeasonExcursion from Cincinnati Well Patronized.
Next Saturday night the Pennsylva
nia will run a popular excursion to Chicago and It is very probable that it will be the last of the year. This however, is not known as a certainty.
The Pennsylvania excursion from Cin cinnati to Logansport Sunday was
very well patronized. A large num
ber of people from Cincinnati came
to Richmond and spent Sunday.
OFFICES ARE BUSY. Preparatory to the opening of the
heavy fall and winter business the local Richmond division Pennsylvania
offices are busy, and both officials and
their clerks are required to work fast and furious to complete arrangements
for the beginning of the work season.
NEW TIME CARD. In the course of the next two weeks
a new time card will be issued by the
Pennsylvania which wili show a num
ber of changes in the operative schedule of trains. One among the several changes to be made will be the discontinuance of the Northland limited
over the G., R. & I. The train during
the present season has done an im
mense business, which Is without precedent. The train at times was run
in three sections to accommodate the
hundreds of people traveling to and
from the northern summer resorts. Since the advent of the cooler weath
er people are returning from the
north in large numbers and the sum
mer business will soon be over.
OUTLOOK IS GOOD. "Growlers," as regards business,
are finding no consolation at present at least. A few freight officials have
taken a gloomy view of the outlook
for traffic until quite recently, but the
improved conditions of crops, the ac
tivity of the markets and the increased volume of business from day to day have made a remarkable change in
their views. Today there is not a road in the states of Indiana or Illinois that has a sufficient complement of cars to handle the volume of business offered.
No freight official claims to have
cars enough to handle all the business now offered and those who look ahead are very sanguine that the business of the roads and the earnings therefrom through the fall and winter
months are to exceed those of any for
mer year.
This will apply to all lines, as
freight rates rule steady and firm and
no one shipper has any advantage ov
er another in the matter of rates.
while the smaller shippers' rights as
to cars furnished are respected, the larger shippers are having no cause to complain as to partiality shown to any shipper. The question that troubles freight men most is where the cars are to come from for shippers. Meantime, local business is at its highest point.
EXPENSES TOO LARGE. Another . order has been sent out from the headquarters of the Pennsylvania to reduce expenses. This, however, will not affect the Improvement work that is to be started this fall. Reports made to headquarters chow that the expenses in the operation of that system this year are enormous greater than ever before In the history of that company. It is proposed to reduce expenses at least $1,000,000 a month, this reduction to cover every division. Some time ago orders were sent out from Philadelphia that expenses were to be reduced and the division officials were instructed to send in an estimate of the expenses for the month of September. On certain divisions a reduction In expenses of $50,000 a month was made, and it was not believed that any further reduction would be demanded. However,
notice was sent from the general man
ager's office a few days ago that on
the larger divisions a reduction of not
less than $300,000 a month was to be
made.
CHECK IS A RELIC.
C. R. Colmey, road foreman of engines for the Pennsylvania at Fort
Wayne and well known in Richmond
has in his possession an old check
used in the pioneer iays of the Penn
sylvania for the purpose of keeping account of the wood issued for the various engines. The checks were used as a medium of exchange be
tween the farmers along the line and
the engine crews as when the engines ran out of wood it was customary to stop at a convenient farm house and
obtain a fresh supply, giving in ex
change one of the checks on which the farmer could collect from the company. The relic must be nearly forty
years old as the use of the checks
was discontinued in 1S71.
MERRILLVILLE STATION OPENED The C, C. & I, station at Merrillville which has been closed for some

WESTERN COLLEGE IS OPEN
Many Girls Refused Entrance Because Of Lack of Room. Oxford, O., Sept. 23 The fifty-third year of the "Western College, Oxford, P., opened most auspiciously this year. The dormitories have every room occupied and many girls had to be refused entrance for lack of accommodation. The campus was never more beautiful, the girls, both old and new, were never more enthusiastic, while the faculty has many new members trained in the best schools of America, England, Germany and Greece.
had good grounds for it. For two or three years there have been rumors that young John Sanford was in leality the man who caused Goebel to be
killed.
After Goebel killed John Sanford in
Covington his wife broke down physi
cally and mentally. She was brought here to Dr. George P. Sprague's High Oaks sanitarium. Three years ago a woman attendant at the sanitarium, it is alleged, made a statement, saying that Mrs. Sanford had told her that her son John had killed Goebel or had him killed in order to secure revenge for the murder of his father by Goebel. Subsequently this woman left her position at the sanitarium but still lives here. Some weeks ago this story was revived and a reporter called on this former attendent in regard to the matter. She bitterly denied the 6tory and ordered the reporter from the house.
At High Oaks sanitarium information concerning Mrs. Sanford's condition
was refused, and the person who an swered the call said that Mrs. San
ford's friends wished to deny the
story that she had said her son had
caused Goebel's murder.
It is understood that Mrs. Sanford
is almost a mental wreck. Young
Sanford is said to be absent from the United States and his whereabouts could not be learned. Efforts have frequently been made to prove that he was in Frankfort the day Goebel
was shot, but this has never been
done.
Mrs. Clark's story, however, puts a different face on the matter. No move has been made by Governor
Beckham tending to show that he will appoint a special judge to try Caleb
Powers at any time soon. Says Turner Igo Is Dead.
Farmers, Ky., Sept. 23. Turner Igo who is charged by Mrs. Lulu Clark
with the assassination of Governor
William Goebel, is dead.
Samuel Igo, a cousin of Turner Igo,
said:
"Turner has been dead three or
four years. I have not sufficient in
formation about his movements on which to base a statement as to where he was at the time Goebel was killed.
He may or may not have been at
Frankfort, but I do not know that he had any business there. "When the Spanish-American war broke out he joined the Fourth Kentucky regiment. He served throughout this war. Whether , or not he knew John Sanford of Covington is more than I can say. "I never heard of any acquaintance with Sanford nor any hint that my cousin was ever connected, even remotely, with Goebel's death." He said that he had never heard of the woman who made the affidavit accusing Turner Igo.
