mouth Square, is authority of
the statement that looting has
recoinm-need in Chinatown and
in the iuiiis of tiie pawnshops

tins work, he says, is being done
by sightseers. Already bushels
of bror,z*s, brasses and partly

Colonel Maus announces that
he will detail a special company

predatory sightseers that the
new patrol will be instructed to
shout the looters.
Boston, Mass , Aprill 2> — The
Rock island interests a*re behind
a scheme which, if successful,
will result in throwing 1,000,000
acres of arid lands in the ex-
treme southeastern part of Tex-
as open to cultivation The plan
is workeJ out through the Am
erican Rio Grande Land A irri-
gation company, which owns
1,000,000 acres in Hidalgo and
Cameron counties-
These two counties lie next to
the Mexican border and stretch
aiong the Rio Grande del Norte.
Cameron i oun.ty is also on the
sea coast.
All the acreage owned by the
American Rio Grande Land &
Irrigation company extends
along the bank of the Rio Grand
and roaches bacK only a few
mil* s. There is little or no rain-
fall m th s t-nt re district, which
is an uncultivated wilderness
colored with soap weed and
cactus
As developed at present the
p ar. is to plant 2U0,O*X) acres of
land in sugar cane within the
next five years. A big central
sugar mill will be erected and
will turn tiie raw sugar over to
the Rock Island roaa to be car-
ried to the refineries.

Washington, April 28.—Chair-
man Burton and members of the
committee on rivers and harbors
are confronted with a verv diffi-
cult problem in connection with
the bill for the preservation of
Niagara Falls which was intro-
ducted by Mr- Burton afew days
ago. The committee has con-
ducted hearings on the bill for
more than a week nast, both
sides of the question having
been very thoroughly presented.
Even tiie representatives of the
power companies did not openly
oppose the projects of preserv*
ing the beauty of the falls; they
merely contended for what they
claim as their rights.
The members of the commit-
tee seem to be convinced that a
bill should be reported prohibit-
ing tiie taking of more than a
certain amount of water from
the falls It is in connection with
this phase of tiie matter that the
problem referred to lias arisen
Several different companies are
nnw engaged in furnishing pow
er derived from the falls and un-
der the existing conditions new
companies might come in at any
time and competition thus be as
sured. Members cf the com-
miteo are apprehensive,however,
that if they place a limit on the
amount of water that may be
used by the power people all the
companies will combine when the
limit is readied and advance the
price of pewer far beyond what
it is now and what it should be.
Once the limit is reached it
would, of course, be impossible
for a new company or companies
to enter th£ field. The companies
already on the grounu would be
in absolute control of the situa-
tion and it would be an easy mat
ter for them to combine and
charge much higher prices than
at present for their services.

The Reduction of Passenger Parse
The time has not come in Texas to
reduce the rates on passenger trains.
Nearly twenty-five years have elapsed
since the rate was fixed at 3 cents, and
if there has been any agitation of the
question to further reduce the rates, or
any demand for such action which
in Germany and other countries on
the Continent is absurd.
The jiopulation of Massachusetts,
for instance, is near if not ten times as
dense as that of Texas, while that in
Germany is twenty times greater per
mile than that of Texas.
When an average is struck * n all
tickets, including excursions, one way
trip tickets and all varieties of trans-
portation outside of regular lull rate,
but including that in the estimate, few
roads now get as much as 2 cents per
mile.
Most carefully and accurately pre-
pared statistics show that the speed of
trains has steadily increased and the
character of the coaches and the
elegance and safety of appliances on
all passenger trains have been improved
steadily until the cost of coaches has
nearly doubled, while the cost of loco-
motives has more than doubled, yet
there has been no proportionate in-
crease in the number of passengers
carried.
There are few. if any. Southern roads
that carry trains filled with passengers
to an extent even proportioned ap-
proximately to the capacity of the
trains; indeed, on most trains, as a
rule, not half the seats are filled. There
is a great difference in the East in this
regard.
There is not a railroad in Texas
which earns a profit out of its passenger
traffic, and to reduce passenger traffic,
and to reduce passenger rates would
be most premature and unjust.
The tendency to increase taxation on
railroad properties, and to fix such
rates as reduce their revenues just in
this stage of development in Texas
when the roads are opening up new
territory and building roads where no
profit can come for several
most unfortunate. It may be
