! .o most decidedly no, she anj swered with a show of spirit. "We are

not In the same class. His expedition was largely arranged for hi:n by others. He simply traveled according to schedule. I've had to make my own arrangements." "What are your plans?" "On reaching London 1 will at once set set sail for Nairobi, in east Africa, accompanied by two white hunters. At Nairobi I will don my hunting costume. "We will take along two dictaphone outfits. We want to catch the miriad voices cf the tropics as well as the Jargon of the Jungle man. We intend to display the trophies of the chase-at the Panama-Pacific exposition." "Hut don't you hesitate to make the trip?"

WILL IS SET ASIDE

Heirs Will DUide ltate on Other Iai As Kosult.

WASHINGTON. April 9. That the Southern railway system has been "milked" to an amount aggregating $30,000,000, after the fashion of the wrecking of the New Haven railroad, is the charge made in a letter read In the senate by Sen. Tillman of South Carolina, Wednesday afternoon. This letter, written by B. L.. Dulaney of Bristol, Tenn., also charges that the .Southern, the Norfolk, and Western and other southern roads are being usefd as instruments to destroy private Interests, especially some of the independent coal companies In the territory tributary to the Southern railway system. This was read by Sen. Tillman to support his charge that the Southern railway is discriminating against the South Atlantic porth through secret rate making and other devices. Dulaney is a coal operator. He charges that through exorbitant rates from the mines to southern ports and reasonable rates to the north, the group of financiers who dominate the Southern railway have been systematically looting that road to the advantage of other northern roads owned by the same group. Operators Uncertain. "I believe that it is a conservative estimate," writes Dulaney, "to say that the mines from Yirginia to Alabama reached directly by tho Southern railway could furnish coal now at the rate of 10,000,000 tons per annum for tidewater business and this tonnage could be increased at an enormous rate if the operators were only certain of their position. "This would increase the gross revenues of the Southern railway by $14,000, 000. assuming that the tidewater rate of $1.40 would lie put in. and when you add to the freight item tho value of the coal itself at a low estimate the amount would be $25,000,000 annually that would remain in the territory served by the Southern railWay. "I believe that a thorough investigation will show that the Southern railway has been the dumping ground for the sale of other railroads at unreasonable profits by the friends of the business associates of some of the directors. I have personal knowledge of the sale of the Virginia and Southwestern railway by Henry K. Mcllarg at practically six times what it cost him or his company when the Southern railway could just as well have bought it directly and saved the five millions. I believe that an investigation will show that such transactions, amounting to probably $50,000,000 or more have taken place since the control by the present financiers."

The will of Sekunda Frederick, contested in the superior court in the case of Nellie Holtz et al. versus Emma Leusch et al. was set aside by agreement of the parties in the case Wednesday morning.

The estate was valued at $.",.000 and the balance wont to three heirs with the other three getting but small sums piece.'
