HUNTINGTON GIVES CREDENCE TO
THE JAY GOULD STORY.
He Is Willing to Consolidate the Southern
Pacific With the Atchison and Other
Lines, and Has offered to Do So.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. &c. P. Hunt
ington, president of the Southern Pacific
company, when asked his opinion of the
report that Gould was to assume control
of the Union Pacific, said: sit looks
plausible, and if true will give the road
wise administration. He is practical
railroad man, and like myself wants to
bring about stable condition OF things
among the great western roads"
"If Gould assumes the presidency OF
the Union Pacific, does that mean pro-
gress toward a big combination that
shall include the Southern, Union and
Missouri tacific roads, and the Atchi-
son." was asked.
Mr.. Huntington replied 81 am in
favor of consolidation, and have gone SO
far as to offer to consolidate the South
ern Pacific with the Atchison. / told
the Atchison people that l was willing
to combine all our respective properties
and let them decide on name for the
joint company. The Atchison people
have not accepted the proposition. and
cannot say if they will"
Speaking of the rumor that the Stan
dard Oil company was about to buy a
trapscontinental road, Mr.. Huntington
said: "The Standard Oil company has
made no offer to buy into the Southern
Pacific No one else is trying to buy
that 1 am aware of. Our figures are too

THE WINE INDUSTRY
Recovering from the Depression Caused
by OverprOd uctiOn.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 12.-The annual
report OF Isaac De Turk, president OF the
state viticultural commission, will show
that the wine industry of the state is re-
covering rapidly from the depression
caused by overproduction. The report
says: While demand for California wines
is growing, it will not warrant such ex-
tensive planting as has been going on
during the past few years. The Anaheim
disease cleaned out about 1000 acres of
vines in Southern California and Napa
and Sonoma counties. The report shows
that the product of wine for 1890 will be
$4,000, 900 gallons, and that the raisin
crop will be 1,400,000 boxes. A recon-
mendation is made that the efforts of
the commission be directed toward pro-
noting the demand for and sale of Cali
fornia wines in the east.

A SAPIENT RULER.
EMPEROR WILLIAM CONvENES THE
PRUSSIAN DIET.
His Speech From the Throne Warmly APP
plauded-Many Wholesome Reforms
Advocated and Intelligently Outlined.

BERLIN, Nov 12.--The emperor opened
the diet Of Prussia today. In his speech
from the throne, he said, in view of its
friendly relations with all foreign states,
which were further strengthened this
year, the country could look forward
with confidence to the perpetuation of
peace. The speech also announced that
bills would be introduced for reform in
taxation, the organization of provincial
councils and the establishment of ele-
mentary schools.
The speech emphasizes the necessity
for improving direct taxation. An in
come tax bill will be submitted
to the diet, intended to effect
an equitable distribution of taxation
by compelling all persons to make
declaration of their income. 1t is cal
culated that by an extension of the
legacy duty, combined with the repeal
of the duty on small bequests, funded
property may be brought more within
the reach of taxation.
The condition OF the nations finances.
the speech declares, does not demand
any immediate augmentation of reve-
nue., while OH the other hand it will not
permit any reduction in receipts. The
increased revenue from direct taxation
will be devoted to tightening the
burdens upon communes, land and
building taxes being handed over to the
communal authorities. Elementary ed
ucation will be made wholly free.
The speech says the develop
ment of regulations affecting
the workingmen demands attention,
and an increase in supervisors, and the
reorganization of the system OF trade in
spection is necessary.
The speech was frequently interrupted
by applause. The emperor's pacific
declarations regarding Prussia's foreign
relations were especially approved.

regard to the statement published this
morning that Jay Gould had secured
control of the Union Pacific, said he was
absolutely ignorant of the alleged facts
in Gould's interview, and greatly ques-
toned whether Gould ever made the re-
marks attributed to him.
A director OF the Union Pacific said
be did not believe one word of the story.
The Facts Borne Out.
NEW YoRK, Nov. 12.-The Times this
morning, in an article on the financial
situation, says in substance, that Mr..
Gould's denial OF the story printed in
the Times yesterday morning, does not
deny the truth of the assertions, and
points to the statements of Russell Sage
and others, and that Union Pacific stock
went up on the strength of it, to bear
out the facts in the matter.

Annual, adversely criticised the vessel.
He said economy of weight had been
carried to excess in her construction;
that her plating was too thin and her
armament overdone. In sailing her
heavy top weight would be detriment
to her speed, and would unduly strain
the hull. The vessel was 225 feet long,
while she had draught of only f41a
feet.
She Was UnseawOrthy.
Relatives of the crew at Plymouth and
the dock-yard people are full of gossip
of the lost cruiser. 1t is claimed that
she was unseaworthy, and broke down
on her trial trip. The Serpent has a bad
record. She broke down more than once
in the maneuvers of 1888. Several ad-
mirals condemned vessels of her class.
Lloyds' agent at Corunna telegraphed:
"It appears that the Serpent was run
ming for shelter in one OF the bays north
OF Finisterre. If she foundered, nobody
need be surprised but the admiralty.
If she grounded on the reefs, she could
not stand minutes battering in
heavy sea-"
IH-Timed Levity.
Lord George Hamilton, first lord of
the Admiralty, on rising to speak at a
Conservative banquet at Acton this
evening, announced the loss of H.. M. s.
Serpent. The announcement caused
sensation, but no action was taken to
postpone the banquet. Lord George
Hamilton led off in the toasts with an
unusually jolly speech. The news of
this affair reached the London clubs and
excited much adverse criticism. 1t is
considered that Hamilton's conduct may
cause scandal against himself and the

BLOODY FOOTPRINTS.
The Officers Thought to Have a Clue so
the Iyett Murder.

the Ivett Murder.
MERGED, CAL, Nov. 12.-Who mur-
dered John Ivett, the wealthy rancher
at Smelling, is still unknown. Ivett was
found lying upon his face in pool of
blood, with one foot in the cellar door,
and under him was a piece of whip
which none of the ranch hands recog-
nized. Doctors Cassidy and O'Brien
state that every bone in the murdered
mans head was broken by the force of
the blow he received. The key of the
cellar and a lamp were found beside
him. The murderer had struck the
blow just as the old man opened the
door, it is supposed, to treat his guest to
wine. In 1vett's study was found a
half-fnished letter to his young wife
who was in San Francisco, but has now
returned. At the inquest, the ranch
hands testified that Ivett left them af-
ter supper Sunday evening, 70 60 to his
residence. August Olsen, Ivett's broth
er-in-law, had been on the
ranch since Thursday afternoon. Later
he left, saying he might return that
night or go to his mothers, near La
Grange. Ivett insisted on his returning
to the ranch, and this Olsen admitted
on examination. He also admitted that
he carried a hammer t. Iyett's on Fri
day, but claimed that he lost it from
his saddle, where it had been tied. He
identified as his rope bride which was
shown him, and when asked how he ac-
counted for the spots of blood on the
rope, said he did not know. On being
asked If he had cut finger lately, he

LONDON, Nov. 12.-The British tor

coast of Spain. The fate of the crew is
unknown. The Serpent was twin screw
vessel and carried six guns.
Terrible Loss of Life.
Later-The Serpent was lost twenty
miles north of cape Finisterre. Out of
a total of 250 souls on board, only three
were saved. The Serpent went on the
rocks during storm Monday night.
Owing to the severity of the storm, it
was impossible to send assistance from
the shore. Tremendous seas swept the
decks of the doomed vessel, carrying
away group after group of the unfortun-
ate men on board. The Serpent's COM
plement was 170 officers and men. The
others were going to relieve men now on
The African station.
Later dispatches say the three surviv-
ors are of the opinion that none of the
others got ashore. Four bodies have
come up on the beach, three of them
women.
The News Creates CONSERVATION.
The Duke OF Edinburgh was attending
Patti concert at Plymouth when the
news of the disaster reached town. He
was Immediately informed, and at once
left the concert hall. After reading ali
the dispatches that had been received
concerning the disaster, he went directly
home without returning to the concert
hall. He expressed the utmost sorrow.
The newspaper offices at Plymouth were
besieged by crowds OF people anxious to
hear news of the disaster. Among these
were many of the wives and daughters
of the lost seamen.
The Serpent's Defective Build.
The Serpent was built after the idea
of Admiral Cooper Key, who insisted
upon immense horsepower, which, ac-
cording to previous notions, was out oi
all proportion to hei displacement. She
could maintain a speed of II knots
an hour. Lord Bassey, in the Nava
