SATURDAY OCTOBER K 1921 iNU 231 - i I : I 1 : Tirornc 01MW HUG ADJOURNS TO 13T1 Witnesses for the Railroad Snffer Greatly Under Maiinie Martin's . Merciless Cross Examination After the noon rece sij yesterday, Mr. Pillans was again placed on the stand and the Oklawaha Valley case was continued. Mr. Pillans testified that the road did a net business of $1600 in June 1921, ?2110 in July 1921 and $2834 in August 1921, and that they hiid a balance of ?50Ji).01 on hand on Aug. 31, 1921. He, Htated that the road had made a good increase in bus business iness business in the past few months, due, he thought, to better bu.ii.ness conditions, reduction in operating costs, lower labor and material Costs. He said that the business of the Rodman Lum Lumber ber Lumber Co. was' turned over to the road in August and that it also helped the road to a certain extent. Upon direct examination Mr. Pillans stated that the con4ition of the 0. V. was much better than it was when it was turned over to Mr. Cummmgs. He stated they had spent considerable money on . bridges and had put in between 30,000 and'40,000 new crossties. He said that when Mr. Curamings took charge the equipment was run down and how the cars have been overhauled, the lo lo-1 1 lo-1 comotives put in good running shape, the track and roadbed vastly improv improved. ed. improved. He stated that most of the money spent by the receivex was in the way of betterments. Mr, Pillans stated that although the Rodman Lumber Co. is the chief patron on the road, there are many other people on the route who are benefited by; the service. He said there were three stores in Orange Springs; one in Kenwood, one in Bur Bur-bank, bank, Bur-bank, three in Fort McCoy and that these as well as people in the country along the route ars dapendent on the O. V. for their transportation. He stated that the Wilson. Cypress Co. gave $1100 business to the O. V. year yearly ly yearly and that it had another year and a half to ship logs ficm its present lo location. cation. location. In addition to the Wilson Cy Cypress press Cypress Company's use of the road, Mr Pillans said there was a considerable amount of available hard wood along the route and that it is being shipped a little at the time with prospects of larger 'shipments to wood workers in Palatka.,. The Arlo Box Co. has a spur to the O. .V. and used the O. V. tracks into Orange Springs. Besides these users of the road there are three naval stores plants shipping over the O. V. tracks. On further questioning Mr. Pillans stated that there was some farm produce shipped over the load but does not know about stock stockmen men stockmen using the O.-V. In addition to these sources of revenue, Mr. Pillans stated that the O. V. has a mail con contract tract contract bringing it $277 a month and an . express contract bringing $80 a month. He stated further that the " Wilson Cypress Co. ran its own trains and paid rent for using the track at ' the rate of $2.75 a car, and that the Wilson Cypress Co. has to repair any damage done to the track on roadbed. .. Mr. Hilburn then turned the witness over to Mr. E. H. Martin for cross cross-examination. examination. cross-examination. Mr. Martin proceeded to go over all the statements made by Mr. Pillans and made every effort to verify by actual figures whether the O. V. was paying expenses or not, whether it is paying expenses exclus exclusive ive exclusive of the hauling done by the three sawmills on its route and whether : when the mills cut out their timber (as will happen in the course of a few years) the road can then pay ex- , epnses. In his questioning Mr. Mar Mar-tin tin Mar-tin found a good many discrepancies in the direct testimony of Mr. Pilans. Quite a number of figures quoted in . his testimony were far from corres- ponding with the reports sent in from time to time by the receiver, which reported were compiled by Mr. Pil lans. Mr. Pillans was at a loss to account for these discrepancies, but promised to return to Rodman and look further into hiis books and see if he could locate them.' Many of the questions asked by Mr. Martin in cross examination that dealt with ex exact act exact figures, Mr. Pillans was unable to answer from the data he had brought .to Ocala. A list of these questions was made and Mr. Pillans has return returned ed returned to Rodman to look up the informa information tion information in the books there. Mr. Martin's line of questioning was directly an attempt to ascertain whether the road was a paying prop proposition osition proposition or not. He was anxious to find out whether all the money spent on betterments to the road and equip equipment ment equipment had really been spent for better betterments ments betterments or whether it should have been entered in the books as regular up upkeep keep upkeep of the road. He also discovered that no charges hail been made in the O. V. accounts for depreciation, in interest terest interest or compensation to the receiver. It appeared from his questions that 7: f',. ?.rt?n'y 8ljw tryim? to deter mine whether the receiver wa3 trying to keep the road running because of a personal benefit to himself at Rod Rodman, man, Rodman, or whether it was for the good of all concerned. He proved by cross examination of Mr. Pillans that between 60 and 75 per cent of the receipts of the road came from the three mills, none of which will be using the O. V. for any permanent period. That left only 25 to 40 per cent of the income to be ob obtained tained obtained from .the people along the route and it is evident that this small per centage wiil not pay expenses. Another piea put up by those want wanting ing wanting to continue the service of the O. V. is that it would leave the Wilson ind Rodman companies withdut any means to move their logs and lumber. Mr. Martin showed that the Wilson company had direct connection with the Seaboard at Silver Springs and that the Rodman company had only been using the O. V. since August 1921, previous to that time it having shipped over the A. C. E. and a side sidetrack track sidetrack of its own to Verdun. Mr. Mar Martin tin Martin said this same route could be used again. Mr. Martin several times seem seemed ed seemed to get Mr. Pillans confused and forced him to say' he did not under understand stand understand the question : and deny that he had knowledge enough of railroading to give, an intelligent answer. Mr. H. M. Hampton also cross ex examined amined examined the witness, but covered prac practically tically practically the same ground as his col colleague, league, colleague, except that he went more fully into some of the points. The next witness called was Mr, A. N. Corcoran, secretary of tne Wilson Cypress Co. He stated that the O. V. was of great value to Bis company in getting its cypress out of the Ok Oklawaha lawaha Oklawaha swamp and shipping via Sil Silver ver Silver Springs and O. V. to Palatka. He stated they had about a year's supply of timber in the swamp and that there is considerable hard wood there. He said there were other lumber ship shipments ments shipments that his company might throw to the O. V. and that he would use his influence to do so if the Q. V. is continued. He stated that he had had some experience in lumber railroads and that the O. V. was in good shape. On cross examination his testimony was pretty well torn up by Mr. Mar Martin,: tin,: Martin,: His statement that his company had another year's work in its present location held fast, but .the fact that trey had never used the O. V. for lum lumber ber lumber shipments and that Mr. Corcoran had no authority except his influence and could not give any guarantee of future shipments, somewhat destroyed tne strength of that direct testimony. Mr. Martin made fun of him for saying the O. V. track was in good condition when he admitted that he had only examined it from the rear of a moving train and could not tell hew many rotten crossties there were.' He admitted that the Wilson company could connect its logging territory cither with the A. C L at Candler or with the S. A. L. at Silver Springs and was not dependent on the O. V. entirely. .. Mr. H. M. De Montmollin of Palat Palat-ka, ka, Palat-ka, was the next witness. He testi testified fied testified to a great deal of statistics as to what the O. V. could do towards mak making ing making a cheaper freight rate toOcala because it had the shortest haul. He said the reason the road has never been patronized is that it has charged the long distance rate instead of availing itself of its short mileage. He said the O. V. was now in posi position tion position to get docking privileges with the G. S. & F. at Palatka and that this would put it in connection with a schooner freight system that Pa Palatka latka Palatka is inaugurating. He said that the Palatka wholesalers are anxious to get this through in order to im improve prove improve their rates to the points on the S. A. L. sout hof Ocala! He promised that the Palatka merchants would give the O. V. a large volume of freight if it is continued and will adopt the short haul rate. In cross examination Mr. Martin admitted that the witness talked too many technical terms for him to follow, but he want wanted ed wanted to know why the A. C. L. would not meet the O. V. low rate should it be inaugurated. Mr. DeMontmollin said that the A. C. L. would cut to the lower rate but that "the people thru gratitude to the O. V. for making the low rate would continue to ship by the O i V, routing. Mr. Martin seemed to think this a rather far-fetched theory. Court then adjourned to meet at 9 o'clock this morning. Today's Session The O. V. hearing today brought cut some unexpected points and some startling statements as to the value of the road to this section.' The first witness was Mr. A. H. Sells of Palat Palatka, ka, Palatka, who is in the moss business there, and testified that he obtained large shipments over the O. V., but on cross examination admitted that the ship shipments ments shipments so far had been very small, but that he expected them to grow in the future. - ' Mr. C. CY Hudson, of a wholesale grocery firm of Palatka, insisted on direct examination that the O. V. was almost indispensable to his house and that they did lots of business along j the O. V. route, but cross examination i showed that most of this business was I br.siness that could be shipped over ; the O. V. but had been irping over s other lines to date.': The great ma- jority of the business that his house '. shipped over the O. V. wa s to Rod- man, which is, of course, only te'mpo- rary business. Mr. Rush H. Todd of Ocala, showed that he had to pay considerable higher j freight rates since the O. V. closed down than he did before. This freight was admitted, under- cross examina examination, tion, examination, to be material bought from the Rodman Lumber Company and Mr. Todd said that although he specified in many cases for northern shipments to be routed by the O. V., they rarely came that way, but were kept by the railroad bringing them info) Florida. Mr. Charles Burt, county commis commissioner sioner commissioner of Putnam county, testified that the O. V. was being used by them to build a" road from Palatka to Or Orange ange Orange Creek and that the discontinu discontinuance ance discontinuance of the road would cost the county more money to get material. This work will be finished by Jaru 1st, 1922, cr thereabouts. Business Development Amisted by O. V. Trouble -Mr. Lee Miller of Ocala, was called as a witness and brought forward some testimony that was a surprise to th'e court. Mr. Miller testified that at .the time the sheriff -of Marion county stopped operations of the O. V. a corporations was being formed and that the money was in hand to build a large brick and tile manufac manufacturing turing manufacturing plant near Burbank. He said that Barrett Brothers of Missouri, were the largest interested parties in this venture and that they had pur purchased chased purchased 25,000 acres of land formerly owned by the New South Farm and Homes Company in the Burbank and Fort McCoy district. 'Mr. MHler said there was a deposit of brick and tile clay on the land excelled by none in the state and that there was a supply sufficient to run the proposed plant for 100 years. The plant under plans, drawn was to have a capacity of 300, 300,-000 000 300,-000 brick a month, or a matter of 35 cars a month hauling to the O. V. The tile end of the plant had not yet been planned to that extent. 4 The machin machinery ery machinery for the brick plant had been se selected lected selected and the order ready when the O. V. was shut down and so transpor transportation tation transportation cut off from the new site. Cross examination showed that this com company pany company had begun their plans in Marion county in June and that it was just about ready to commence work on the construction of the plant when this unexpected setback occurred. The O. V. was to receive $10 a car for haul ing brick for this new concern. Mr. Miller stated that the plans as outlin outlined ed outlined would not be completed unless there was some assurance; that the O. V would be a permanent railroad. : The next witness, also connected with Barrett Bros., was Mr. Grant H. Mothland. Mr. Mothland stated that he was living in Ocala, was in the em employ ploy employ of Barrett Bros, and was working for them on a project at Fort McCoy cn their newly acquired 25,000 acres. He said Barrett Bros, expect to put in a wood distilling plant 8nd clear the land, using the wood in the -plant and then sell the land into farms. He in insisted sisted insisted that this land is excellent farming land bat gave to reason for its failure in this respect under the hands of the New South Farm com company. pany. company. He refused to tell what his company paid for the land and Judge Bullock sustained him. Mr. Mothland said there is enough wood there to run a plant of the size they had planned for at least 20 years. Mr. C. S. Roe, general manager of the O. V., was next on the stand and gave quite a long lecture on the ad advantages vantages advantages of the O. V. to Ocala in freight rates under a new plan he was working on with the river boats and the G. S. & F. railroad. Mr. Roe was not cross; examined as Judge Bullock was compelled to .ad .ad-jcurn jcurn .ad-jcurn court to make a trip to Levy county this afternoon to hold court there. Judge Bullock set October 13 as the day for resumption of this case, but if he succeeds in getting home sooner, the case will be "heard as soon as he returns to Ocala.

TWO HOUSES ENTERED BY THIEVES LAST NIGHT Between four and five o'clock this morning, Mrs. C. G. Rose, living at No. 231 S. Second street, was awak awakened ened awakened by a noise which she at first thought was a rat in the wall, but yet she wasn't sure it sounded exactly like a rat and as she listened she heard the door into the dining room make a slight squeak. Just at that moment a hand came around the edge of the bedroom door 'and a man approached the bureau which stands right at the door. The man was heavy set, had on rough looking clothes and wore a cap' -pulled well down over his face. He carried a flashlight and went over the things on the dresser, 'while Mrs. Rose was waking her husband. The burglar heard Mr. Rose when he roused and ran. Mr. Rose thought he made hU escape through a window and fired in that direction, but When 1-e began to investigate he saw that the burglar had come into the house by picking the latch on the screen door at the back of the house and that he escaped the same way, drop dropping ping dropping a memorandum book and some other things as he jumped over an ironing board. Mr. Rose then dressed and looked up-a policeman and the two went to the depot to see if anybody there had seen a man of the description in the last fifteen minutes. Some one had seen a man walking fast out Magno Magnolia lia Magnolia street towards the Gainesville roa'd, so Mr. Rose and the policeman drove out that way to see if they could see anything of him. When the had almost reached the fork of the road, about two and a half miles out, the policeman saw a man beside the road crouched in the weeds, so they stopped and ran back as quickly as they could and the policeman emptied kis revolver after the fleeing man, but was unable to hit him on account of the darkness. The man on the Gainesville road was barefaoted and there are barefoot tracks around the Rose home where the man escaped, and the. officer and Mr. Rose feel that they were on the right track. The only thing that Mr. Rose has -missed from' his house is about three dollars in currency. His watch and some small change were on the bureau, but it is evident that the burglar had to leave too suddenly to finish his job. . This morning when Mr. L. M. Mur Murray, ray, Murray, living next door to Mr. Rose, started to- dress he found that he was a man without any trousers. On searching for them he found them by the open window of the bath room, but there was no money in the pockets.

Said old cracker was afflicted with a neigh neighbor's bor's neighbor's steer, which used to jump his fence when grass was short and browse on his crops. The old cracker finally went after the steer with a shotgun, but put in peas instead of shot. Found the old steer standing under a tree chewing his cud, crept up to within ten yards and let fly with both barrels. Peas rattled on old Duck's leather hide, and he winced a little at the noise of the gun; then went on chewing his cud. That is about the effect Senator Simmons' broadside will have. Perhaps,- how however, ever, however, next year, the people wiU take the shotgun inthc'r own hands and load it with something that will make old Buck move. v 1 ADVERTISIXW, RATES Dlaplays Plate 15 cents per lncn foi .onsecuti ve insertions.

"And I suppose you think your father would agree to this delightful arrangement?" he asked. "I know he would I" Cherry an answered swered answered eagerly. "All right you write and ask him!" Martin agreed good-naturedly. Cherry was surprised at his attitude, but grateful more than surprised. "Not cross. Mart?" she asked. "Not the least in the world!" he answered lightly. "JBecause I truly, believe that we'd both be happier the woman said hesitatingly. Martin did not answer. The next day she sat down to write her father. She meditated, with a troubled brow. Her letter was unex unexpectedly pectedly unexpectedly hard to compose. She could not take a bright and simple tone, ask asking ing asking her' father to rejoice in her home home-coming.Somehow coming.Somehow home-coming.Somehow the matter persisted In growing heavy and the words twisted themselves about Into ugly and selfish sounds.

"leiegram?" asked Martin," not par particularly ticularly particularly pleased, but not unsympa unsympathetic, thetic, unsympathetic, either.

"I'll bet it's a put-up job between you and Alix" Martin said In Indul Indul-oront oront Indul-oront suspicion. Her Indignant glance sobered him; be hastily arranged mcneymatters and that night she got off the train In the dark wetness of the valley, and was met by a rush of cool and fragrant air. Cherry got a driver, rattled and Jerked up to the hotse In a surreyj and jumped out, her teart almost suf suffocating focating suffocating her. Alix came flying to the door; the old lamplight and the odor of wood smoke poured through. There was no need for words ; ; they burst Into tears and" clung together. An hour later Cherry, feeling as If she was not the same woman who waked In Red Creek this same morn morning ing morning and got Martin's eggs and coffee ready, crept Into her father's room. Alix had warned her to be quiet, but at the sight of the majestic old gray head and the fine .olid hands clasped together on the sheet, her self-control forsook her entirely "and she fell to her knees and began to cry again. The nurse looked at her disapprov disapprovingly, ingly, disapprovingly, but after all, it made little dif difference. ference. difference.

Alix asked, as his voice sank again. A shabby old Bible always stood at her father's bedside; she reached for It, and making a desperate effort to steady her voice, began to read. The place was marked by an old letter, and opened at the chapter he seemed to desire, for as she read he seeraed to be drinking In the words. Once they heard him whisper, "Wonderful !" Cherry got up on the bed and taok the splendid dying head In her arms; the murky winter dawn crept In and the lamp burned sickly In the daylight. Hong could be heard stirring.

In all the utter desolation of the days that followed. Cherry loved to remember that his last utterance was her name. But Alix knew, though she never said it, that It was to another pharlty he spoke. Subdued, looking younger and thin thinner ner thinner In their new black, the sisters came downstairs, ten days later., for a business talk. Peter had been named as one executor; but Peter was far away, and It was a pleasant family friend, a kindly old surgeon of Dr. Strickland's own age. or near It. and the lawyer, George Sewall, the other executor, who told them about their affairs. Anne, as co-heiress, was pres present ent present at this talk, with Justin sitting close beside her. Martin, too, who had come down for the funeral, was there. The house went to the daughters ; there were books and portraits for Anne, a box or two in storage for Anne! and Anne was mentioned in the only will as equally Inheriting with Alexandra and Charity. For some legal reason that the lawyer and Dr. Younger made clear, Anne could not fully Inherit, but her share would be only a trifle less than her cousins'. Things had reached this point when Justin Little calmly and confidently claimed that Anne's share was t be based upon an old loan of Anne's fa father ther father -.to his brother, a loan of three thousand dollars to float Lee Strick Strickland's land's Strickland's Invention, withthe understand understanding ing understanding that Vincent Strickland be subse subsequently quently subsequently entitled to one-third of the re turns. As the patent had been sold for nearly one hundred and fifty thou thousand sand thousand dollars, one-third of it, with ac accumulative cumulative accumulative interest for ten years, of w hich no payment had ever been taade Anne, was a large proportion of the entire estate, and the development of this claim, In Justin Little's assured, woodeny voice, caused every one te look grave, yhe estate was not worth one hun- i dred and fifty thousand dollars aow. by any means ; It had been reduced to little more than two-thirds of that sum, and Anne's bright concern that every one should be satisfied with what, was right, and her IngenaQis pleasure In Justin's cleverness In thinking of this possibility, were met with noticeable coldness. If Anne was wrong, and the paper she held In her hand worthless, each gtrL would inherit a comfortable little fortune, but If Anne was right. Cherry and Alix would have only a few thou thousand sand thousand dollars apiece, and the old htme. The business talk was ever before any of them realized the enormity of Anne's contention, and Anne and Jus Justin tin Justin had departed. But both the old doctor and the lawyer agreed with Martin that it looked as If Anne was right, and when the family was alone again, and had had the time te digest the matter, they felt as If a thunder thunderbolt bolt thunderbolt had fallen across their lives. "That Anne could do It!" Alix said, over and over. Cherry seemed dazed, spoke not at all, and Martin had said little. "People will do anything for mon ey I" he observed once drily. He had met Justin sternly. "Pm not thinking of my wife's share I didn't marry her for her money i never knew she had any! But I'm thinking f Alix." MYes we must think of darling Alix !" Anne had said, nervously eager that there should be no quarrel. "If Uncle Lee Intended me to have all this money, then I suppose I must take It, but I shan't be happy unless things are arranged so that Alix shall be com comfortable fortable comfortable !" ",B-but the worst of It is, Alix!" Cherry stammered, suddenly, on the cay before sne and Martin were to return to Ked Creek, "I I counted on haing enough enough to live my ewn life.! Alix, 1 can't 1 can't go back!" "Why, my darling" Alix exclaimed, as Cherry began to cry in her arms, "My darling, it is as bad as all that?" "Oh, Alix," whispered the little sis sister, ter, sister, trembling. "I can't bear it. You don't know how I feel. lou and Dad were always here; now that's all gone you're going to rent the bouse and try to teach singing and I've nothing to look forward to I've nobody!" "Listen, dear," Alix soothed her. "If they advise It. and especially if Peter advies it when he gets back, well fight Anne. And then if we win our fight. I'll always keep the valley house optn. And if we dun't. why I'm going to visit you and Martin every year, and per perhaps haps perhaps I'll have a little apartment some day I don t iniena 10 uouru aiwojs But she was crying, too. Everything seemed changed, cold and strange ; she had suspected that Cherry's was not a successful marriage; she knew it now, and to resign the adored little sister to the unsympathetic atmosphere of Red CrKk, and to miss all the old life and the old a-elations. made her heart ache.
