 Further inquiries from anxious friends continue to be made at the company's office As ship after ship comes in without news the agents naturally are worried, but they hope the Denmark will bring the passengers and crew.

DIPLOMATS EXCITED
Over the Rumor that the Sultan
Has Invited the Gar
TO VISIT CoNsTANTINOPLE.
Likely to ArIse-The
Effect of the IIalser's Visit Must
beoGset by tho Russian Poten-
tate-othGr Foreign News,

LONDON, Oct. S0,-A rumor which
comes from Vienna, that centre OF du-
bious reports, to the elect that the Sui.
tan has invited the Czar TO visit Con-
stantlnopls and that the latter has
accepted the invitation, has caused a
autter among the continental diplomats
here and created desire in the circles
OF the ministry to obtain more definite
information on the subject. The ereports
which have lately beeu sent out from
81, Petersburg that the Ozar had taken
no pains to conceal his astonishment
that the German Emperor should pay q
visit to the Sultan were undoubtedly
authentic and represented accurately
the Cars feelings. When, however, 1t
was learned that the Emperor would go
to Constantinople despite the amaze
ment Of the northern potentate 1t is
probably true that the Gear, seeing the
necessity OF olisetting the Emperor's &c.
tion, aud Counteracting the influence OF
his conference with the Commander
OF the Faithful, resolved to confer
with the Sultan himself, Under
none Of the existing circumstances could
he pay a gratultous visit to Tho city

sufficient time will bave elapsed for him
to have realized some OF the benefits |
which will undoubtedly attach 10 him
from the visit Of the Kaiser, to enable
him to make deal with the Czar which
will be advantageous 10 both.
Both the Emperor and the Czar have
much to gain from certain voluntary
concessions on the part of,rurkey which
neither will permit the other to obtain
by force Of arms, while the Sultan has
nothing to lose in any event, the
semi.hOstility Of the powers toward one
another arising from their jealOusies,
guaranteeing to him absolute aecurity
in the position from which each would
be delighted to oust him.
1t is evident, therefore, that though
the two Emperors will obtain from tho
Sultan concessions Of great benefit to
their respective governments, the willy

Artery Severed by Whisky Flask.
MANspIELD, Pa, Oct. 30-This even

soon had the injured man ut his fathers
home, where the severed artery bled
profusely. Drs. Kiddoo and Newcomer,
Of Bidgeville, were dispatched and,
when they arrived, attempted to stop
the flow. Up to Wednesday morning they
had failed 10 check it, when the father
came TO Mansfield for DR.. Edward Hus.
Ter. When HIsler arrived he pro.
nOunced the man dying and did not
attempt to relieve him, except to pour
whisky into hiui to deRden the pain.
At about 4 o'clock this afternoon,
ten minutes after Husler's arrival,
the life blood had ebbed away
and Garretson was dead. The victim
was 10 years old and unmarried. The

GREAT RAILWAY DHAL.
The VanderbiIts Purchase the
Chicago & Alton Road,
NEARLY $4,000 MILES
Embracing q System that Extends
From Ocean to Ocean aud From
tho Lakes to the Gulf is
What They Now Control,

New YoRK, Oct. SO.-The Wander.
bilts have added the Chicago & Alton
railroad to the vast system which they
now control, the mileage ofwhich isput
at e7,lOO, 1t Is understood that about
Sl2,OO0,0OO was involved in the transac.
tion, report putting the price paid per
share at Sl40, TheVanderbilts were not
alone in the purchase, although they
contributed about one-half Of the pur-
chase money, the remainder being sup
piled by their recently acquired associ-
ates In the Union Pacific railroad.
j, P. Morgan is credited with having
'put the thing through" Tho papers
will be all signed in few days, and the
Independence OF the Chicago 4 Alton
Railroad, which has sometimes caused
uneasiness among the other lines, will
cease, and the $40 miles which It's track
covers will complete the system which
now extendS from ocean to ocean and
from the lakes TO othegulf. Thereported
sale OF q controlling interest in the Chi
Cago & Alton Railroad following closely
upon tho combination between the
Union Pacific and Chicago 4 Northwest
ern CompauieR, came NJ a surprise TO
Wall street. The facts, as published, are
vouChed for by a member Of the bank
ers' syndicate that was concerned in
forming the railroad "gentlemen's asso-
citation" last winter.
]. p. Morgan vas not at his office to.
day and his partners referred inquiries
for information OF the transaction 10
him. Itlsa well known fact that tho
Alton Company entered the Railroad
Presidents Association, which was or
ganized at j. P. Morgan's house, with
considerable reluctance, and was at no
time enthusiastic over the effort then
made 10 adjust differences. When in
the course VI time the Atchison, To-
peka 4 Santa Fe Company claim,d d the
right to carry all Of it's freight
beyond Kansas City without break
ing bulk, the Alton, which had
before this received large proportion
OF such freight, protested against the
Atchison's claim and appealed To the
association, The decision was against
the Alton, ana inc company NJ once
withdrew from the association. Tho
road had always been consprvaliveipits
management, and was lothe to become
rate distributor, but It's position was
such that 1t must either begin fight
for business or lease or sell out to sUme
other company. The AtChison tiually
made an oller to purchase the control at
$l25 per share. The proposition was
not satisfactory to the company aud ne
gotiations fell through. Then the Union
Pacific, contemplating tho deal with
the Northwestern, offered Sl40per share
and tho Alton accepted,
1t is said that President Blackston
and Vice President McMullen OF the
Alton and their following control the
$l2,000,O00 OF stuck necessary for de-
livery on the conSulnmation Of the deal,
while the balance OF tho stock Is widely
scattered. ChaunCey NJ. Dtpew at his
office In the Grand Central Railway
station, did not seem disposed to admit
the full elect AMI influence attributed
to the transaction.
