AN IMPORTANT ABSORPTION.

The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Rail-
road to Assume Control of the Denver
& Rio Grande-An Important Departure
in the Far West Railroad Question.
ST. LOUIS, Jan. 30.-The Globe Democrat
has it from good authority that the Chi
cago, Burlington & Quincy has obtained
controlling voice in the management of
the Denver & Rio Grande, and will
shortly undertake the operation of the
line. The control of the Rio Grande will
give the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy a
line 10 Pueblo and share of the Denver
business of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa
Fe, also share of the Union Pacific busi-
ness between Omaha and Pueblo. The
Denver & Rio Grande laid third rail to
Pueblo to accommodate the Santa Fe and
the Union Pacific, and thereby secured an
interest in the business of one road to
Pueblo and of the other to Denver. The
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy will natur
ally fall heir to the percentages heretofore
paid by Denver & Rio Grande in the pool
and will also hold its own share, but the
most important outcome of the change of
control will be the securing to the Chicago,
Burlington & Quincy of line to Salt Lake
City. The division of Denver & Rio
Grande, now approaching completion from
Salt Lake, connection with the Central
Pacific, consummation most important,
can be easily formed. This action of the
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy in gaining
control of Rio Grande, while not wholly
unexpected, will cause some lively study
ing of the railroad maps of the far west

cline from the closing figures at 1 o'clock
yesterday, but with good line of buying
orders on the market and pretty strong
local feeling. Prices soon frmed up and
advanced irregularly, 1c on February and
&c on March. May eased off about $Sc,
then fuctuated and closed tolerably firm.
Prices we're fully sustained during
the afternoon. Spring wheat
is in fair request to carry against for future
delivery. Scarcely anything was being
done in winter.
The -four market is at standstill. Ship
pers and exporters still refuse to pay
prices asked and the home traders are only
looking at the finer family and bakers
brands.
Oats were quiet and dull and the feeling
easier There was but little demand for
cash and this was only to fill out round lots.
The offerings were small, for even with
larger receipts most consignments of No
., and No. white were held against con-
tracts. Light sales of No. 2 were made at
$500. Rejected nominal, sample lots slow
and lower. The supply of the
better grades only fair, but there were a
good many more rejected offered than for
some days. For the future the market
was rather quiet and ruled tolerably
steady, with the range showing slight de-
preciationfrom yesterdays closing.
During most of the day rye was quiet
and lower, but improved sharply in the
afternoon.
Very little trading was done in barley,
and prices were detected.
A fairly active demand prevailed for
hog product and the market ruled frmer,
ing speculative articles and well main
tanned. Shipping inquiry light. For
eign advices are without ma
terial alteration and Eastern markets
without essential change. The receipts of
product we've moderate and the shipments
quite liberal but not fully reported. The
enquiry for mess pork was moderately
active and the offerings fair. Prices were
frmer and advanced 1920 and closed
comparatively steady. Cash quiet. Janu-
ary quiet with light sales.
The demand for lard was fairly active
and the offerings were free. Prices were
stronger and So 10c higher per 100 pounds
and closed steady. Both were steadier and
little better prices we're paid for lard in
the afternoon. Thirty-two thousand live
hogs were the arrivals to-day. This market
was firm and fairly active at yesterdays
closing prices.

PARIS, Jan 3O.-Fallieres was seized
with sickness while defending Fabre's bill
prescribing pretenders to the throne, and
the sitting was suspended. After the ses-
sion Fallieres tainted. Congestion of the
brain is feared. The debate adjourned
until Thursday.
Previous to the illness of Fallieres, Re-
nault, Republican, spoke strongly against
Fioquet's proposition, also the govern
tacks on liberty would not be approved by
the vote of the whole people, member of
the chamber shouted, ''You are an Orlean-
ist." Renault replied that since the Count
de Paris had gone to Frohsdorf, the Orlean-
ist party had died. The excitement was
increased by Renault pointing to the
dilemma which would arise, should the two
houses of congress dispute the proposed
law, nominate a prince president of the
republic. Renault said he admitted the
governments right of defense, but net
persecution. Falieres said that if the web
of intrigue, which at least by silence had
encouraged the princes, had not been woven
around the governments representatives,
the question of rendering the security of
the country complete would still have
arisen; but as a matter of fact, advantage
had been taken of the liberty enjoyed un-
der the republic to attack the government,
which was founded on national sovereignty
and must depend upon itself for preserva-
tion.

The Mace-slade sparring Match.
Especial Telegram to the Globe

New YORK, Jan. 3O.-A large crowd
gathered at the Jefferson Market police
station to-day at 10 o'clock to witness the
proceedings against Jem Mace and Herbert
A. Slade, the pugilists, who were arrested
yesterday evening. The charge against
them was making preparation for an ex-
hibition tending to breach OF the peace.
Mace and Slade came to the court in car
riage with their counsel, Joseph Steiner,
and their bondsman, Harry Hill. They were
at once arraigned before the bar, and Mr..
Steiner made motion to have
the case continued as, his clients were
not prepared to go on. They
wished to have thorough examination,
and time to examine the law, Justice
Gardner granted the motion, and fixed the
hearing for tomorrow afternoon at 2:30.
Mace ane Slade left the court, followed by
large mob. A telegram was received
from Troy to-day, saying that Sullivan
will give another exhibition in that place,
and will leave for New York Thursday. 1t
is probable that match will then be ar
ranged between him and Slade. 1t will
not be done publicly, however. as that
would render all participants liable to
| arrest.

"A Pillar OF the Church Arrested for
SlanderIng One of the Sisters.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.l
OMAHA, Jan. 30.--A scandal, involving
several persons prominent in business and
in clerical circles, wLsch has been smol-
pering for some weeks, burst out this even
ing in the form of the arrest of the offend
ing party, followed by the commencement
of slander suit against him. James
Bonner, the defendant, is a well-known
merchant, and has been a class teacher
and prominent member in the First Metho-
dist church, but for months past has been
regarded as disaffected and practically
withdrawn from the church. Last Mon
day he was called to account by the au-
thorities of the church for writing
letters to Mrs. Matilda A. Ward,
highly respectable lady and wife of
a steward of the church. In these letters
Bonner assumed such authority over her
as liege lord would possess, and forbade
her to be seen in company with certain
other men undeTpain of great bodily harm
and toward the last warned her that they
might both lie in the same winding sheet.
Mrs. Ward finally showed these letters to
her husband, and it was decided to lay
them before the authorities of the church,
which occasioned the resignation of Bon
ner. He made the charges which were
the basis of the libel suit, and asked leave
to withdraw, which was granted. Mrs.
Ward Indignantly denied the charge, and
satisfied the church people of her inno-
cence. This evening Bonner was arrested
and gave bail in the sum of
$1,000 to keep the peace toward
Mrs. Ward. A suit for slander was also
begun, and summons served upon Bonner
The plaintiff alleges, after setting forth
her good character and unstained reputa-
ton in the community and in the church,
that she has never been suspected of the
crime of adultery until the defendant, who
is married man, maliciously, on the 29th
day of December did, in the presence and
hearing of numerous good people, falsely
and maliciously say that he had been hav-
ing criminal intercourse with said plaints
iff for several years past, and that by the
unjust accusations said plaintiff has been
greatly injured in her good name and
character, and she claims damages in the
sum of $4,000.

NEW YORK.
Especial Telegram to the Globe. |


New YORK, Jan. 3O-The market at the
opening was quite firm, and a fair amount
of activity was noticeable, with better
prices for nearly all stocks. Alton &
Terre Haute led the list, advancing from
6815 to II, followed later by Hannibal &
st. Joe preferred, which touched 874.
Illinois Central gained per cent and ST.
Paul sold above 107 Before midday
transactions were on a small scale again
and by o'clock the gains of the morning
were in most instances wiped out. Mich
igan Central fell from 80 to 9738
while Denver went below AZ, and
was quite active. The day, which
opened so ausipciously for the bulls,
to control the situation at the end. The
feeling was rather feverish in the final
dealings. Denver rallied to 4818. There
is considerable mystery connected with the
movement in Denver. The leaders in it
seem to have some of the strongest men
in the street, Osborne, Cammack, W. L.
Scott and Woerishoffer. The movement
has not thus far been successful. The
clique has been obliged to take the stock
at every advance, and has not been able to
sell. Many commission houses decline
to buy it on margins, and the
Continuous falling off in earnings
increases the distrust with which it has
long been regarded. Cammack says he is
bulling the stock on its merits. Osborne
says Denver will look very cheap at these
prices. Conservative houses advise Gus
toners to buy Denver, because it is going
up" The point has been made to-day
that Mr.. W. L. Scott is a Pennsylvania
man as we'll as Vanderbilt man. Mr..
Cassatt is supposed to retain at least a
portion of his old interest in the road with
which he was identified so long. This, the
oracles say, means that the Pennsylvania
company wants Denver, although why is
not explained. There continues
to be much talk about Union
Pacific, but it is not so bearish. An officer
of the Union Pacific company writes to a
friend here that the earnings of the road
are all right. The decrease has been
clused by snow blockades. Boston in
creased its holdings of the stock 23,OCO
shares in December, and has added 1000
shares to its line during the month. 1t is
said that Mr.. Tilden has not yet sold his
stock, and that he has great confidence in
the road.
The Gould brokers were openly buying
stocks to-day. The Vanderbilts
were steady in consequence OF
the announcement that he had
deferred his trip to the West. The bears
however, say openly that he has deferred
it because he knows that if he went away
leaving his interests unprotected he would
find himself millions poorer on his return
They say that he and Gould know of i'm
pending financial dangers that will require
their efforts to avert and lessen. This ar
gument had much effect on the stock to-
day. Vanderbilt was going to Cuba a
month ago, but postponed the trip at the
last moment. 1t is believed that he stays
at home this time to help sustain the stock
market.

CHICAGO, Jan. 30.-Pal ticulars relative

an explanation of the conduct
of Mr.. Colvin. The answer of Mr.. PIatt
has not transpired, but it is confidently
asserted that Mr.. Colgin, yesterday, re-
ceived information which led him to be-
lieve that the interests of the United
States Express company and his interesr
therein, counselled his withdrawal from the
new company. Acting upon this infor-
nation a reporter, this morning, inter
viewed Mr.. Colvin as to its truth or falsity

emphatically answered the ex-mayor.
''Do you MAINTAIN the interest in the new
company you had last week?"
Il have no information to give you"
"But the news comes from New York
persisted the reporter.
You are at liberty to use any and all
information you have on the subject" said
Mr.. Colvin.
s'Is it true that officials of the United
States Express company object to your
connection with the new concern?"

1 have nothing more to say" said the ex-
may or.

maintain your interest in the new com
pany?"

it was pre-eminently the time for dis
appearing. There is said to be doubt con
