sons were instantly killed and thirty IN
iured, some, it is feared, fatally.

collision. The line is completely COW

dor from Japan has arrived. 1t is gen.
orally considered that pacific solution
will be effected of the difficulties with
regard to Formosa. 1t is reported that
the question will be submitted for ar
bitration to the President of the United

NEW York, Sept. II. The latest
phase of the controversy between the
Pacific Mail Co and the transcontinen-
tai railroads between Philadelphia, New
York, Baltimore and San Francisco. for
a new and powerful line on the Pacific
to run exclusively in the interests OF the
railroads and she European connection.
The name of Stanford has been prom
inently mentioned in connection with
the entert rise. In an interview he said
if the negotiations pending were sue
cessfully concluded be thought it very
likely he would visit Europe to make
arrangements for the purchase of ves-
sells. Rnssel Sage, President of the Pa
cific Mail Co., expressed regret at the
present competition between the Pacific
Mail Company and the Pacific railroads,
which, he said. were injuring all parties.
He claimed that the Pacific Mail Com
pany were willing to do anything to put
an end to existing difficulties. He at
teched little Importance to reports with
regard to the establishment of a rival
line. If the railroads attempted any
thing of that kind they could at once be
enioined for violation of their charters.
It was quite likely. however, that
Stanford and others would try to estab-
lish line in connection with the Pacific
Railroad.
