New York special OF the 18th says:
The differences that have arisen between
Jay Gould and the men who control the
East Tennessee, Virginia & Georgia rail
road system have given rise to negotiations
which. it is thought, will soon put Mr..
Gould In control of the Louisville & Nash
vile road and the Central railroad of Geor-
gia. The last named road is said to be in
the hands of persons who are also inter
ested In the Louisville q Nashville. It is
we'll known that Mr.. Gould was disap-
pointed by the failure of the negotiations
to connect the East Tennessee, Virginia &
Georgia with his Southwestern system. His
determination to make some connection
that would give his Southwestern
system an outlet to the sea-
board was apparently not abandoned in
consequence of his failure to do business
with the Seney Thomas Brice party. Dur
ing the last few days an understanding
has been reached whereby Mr.. Gould and
his staunch friend, Russell Sage, are to be
elected directors of the Louisville i
Nashville Railroad company. The cleo
ton of President Baldwin, of the Louis
vile q Nashville, director of the Western
Union Union to-day shows the close friend
ly relations existing between him and the
man who controls the telegraph company.
The central system of Georgia is the only
rival Of the Richmond & Danville railroad
system. If Mr.. Gould should succeed in
obtaing possession of this system it will
give him seaboard outlet for his great
southwestern system. Colonel William G..
Raoul, president of the Central railroad
of Georgia, has been in this city until
within a few days, and it is said that he
had various consultations with Mr.. Gould.

MILWAUKEE, Sept. 14.-Twenty thou
sand oil barrels, the cooper shop and ad-
jacent sheds of the Standard Oil company,
six miles north of the city, burned last
night. Several cars of the st. Paul COM
pany and many of the Northwestern COM
pany's were standing on the track and were
also consumed. The loss is about 1000;
no insurance. The fire is supposed to have
been incendiary. The pipes leading to the
big tanks were cut by the Waterman, so
the fire did not spread to them at all.
New YORK, Sept. 14.-Fire this morning
destroyed the Brooklyn felt hat works of
VIM. A. Boylan & Co. and the Novelty
straw hat factory of Chas. E. Everett,
Brooklyn The fire broke out first last
night and was extinguished as was sup
posed, but it broke out again at 6 o'clock
this morning, and the structure was all in
flames before the firsmen arrived. Total
loss about 100000.
CHILDREN LOCKED IN.
OTTAWA, Ont, Sept. IA woman

Returning shortly she found the house on
fire and egress impossible. The building
was soon reduced to ashes and not the
slightest sign of the children was found.

THE call for a Republican State
Convention will be found In to-day's

az the date for holding same. The
reason particularly assigned for cal
ling the convention thus early is he
cause farmers will be in position
about this time to attend to political
matters, whereas if it WAS put off a
month or six weeks later farm duties
would command their entire time and
attention and they would practically
be debarred from participating or

A curious case OF sorrow ana JOY joining

two weeks ago. A young German came to
this country few months ago to make his
fortune. He left his sweet heart In the old

found work and made some money, he sent
for her. She came In due time, and they
went to Mankato, were married AMI then
come back TO bis home In LeRay. bringing
with him two or three kegs OF beer. and Of
course his friends joined with him, and there
was beer JOY. Amidst the Joy came the sor-
row. The child that his wife brought with
her from the fatheriand took sick AMI while
the father was drunk, II died, and two Of his
friends took Il and buried II for him. so
there was u wedding, a drunken father and
