NEW YORK, Oct. l7.-Recent negotia-
lions between II. Mex. Iwombly and
member of the Reading syndicate were
freely discussed on the floor of the ex-
change. Who Twombly is working for
is the subject of much comment, but
Vanderbilt people assert they do not
want Reading property again. Though
either the fennsvlvania railroad, or
Carnegie, Hostler Baer and other capt.
talists who were interested in the South
Pennsylvania scheme are behind him,
and the theory that the Pennsylvania Is
seeking control gains credencs because
the recent arrangements by which the
Read ny secured Pittsburg connection
are thought TO have made IL almost i'm
perative on the Pennsylvania to cut
competition of at the start. 1t is be-
lieved by those hest informed, however,
that the PENNSYLVANIA actually controls

A SPLIT.

DEs MONIES, Ia, Oct. 16.-The state con-
yention of the Woman's Christian Temper
ance union, Of Iowa. got down to business
TODAY and "A very warm time was expert
enced, resulting in a split between the non
partisan and the third party forces, and
the main body seeding from the national
union. The fight today was over report
of the COMMITTEES on credentials, which
recommended unseating a large number
of delegates who were considered
disloyal to the constitution of the Iowa
union. The discussion was long and
heated, but the report was finally adopted
bv "A vote 100 to 30. The nOR-partisan
forces were led by Mrs. j. Ellen Foster,
president of the union, who with num-
ber of supporters withdrew from the
national convention last year on the partl-
san issue.
At the afternoon meeting a vote was
taken as TO whether the Iowa union should
secede from the Francis Willard National
union on account of the third party attl-
tude of the national union, and the Iowa
union voted to no longer be Identified with
the national union. The vote for the Iowa
non-partisan union was 3l5; for national
| third party union, 6S.
The third party delegates then withdrew
! in body, with the intention of forming
an Iowa union on a third party basis.
! Mrs. Foster declined reelection TO the
/ presidency and Mrs. Matte Bailey, Of
! Shenandoah, was elected president for the
! ensuing year. Mrs. VI. Jalrich of Cedar
! Rapids was reelected corresponding sec

KENT WITHDRAWS.
The Third Party Candidate for Attorney
General WithdraWs

TOPEKA. Kan, Oct l6.-The Capital
will print tomorrow an open letter,
addressed to the voters of Kansas from ID.
w Kent. of Hutchinson, Withdrawing
from the race as candidate for attorney
general on the third party ticket. lie says
In the letter: 81 am in favor of the cleo
ton of Hon. l.. b. Kellogg, the Republl-
can nominee for that office, for the follow
ing reasons:
"First-AIy candidacy on the Prohibition
ticket might contribute to the defeat OF
General Kellogg, and by this means the
Prohibitionists of the state would lose an
energetic public officer who has used
every effort to enforce the antl-rum legls,
lation of the state, and place in power and
official station an enemy to our cause.
''Second-L B. Kellogg IS practlcal
Prohibitionist and has done his duty as at
torney general for the last two years and,
further. he is pledged to do more IN the fu-
turp than hp has done the past.
''Third-He is an open and brave enemy
of the r-submisSionistS and they are nghJ-
ing him. and in their convention at Wlch-
ita they took especial pains TO personally
abuse him. and Joined in the nomination
of Ives, the Peoples party candidate, who
has so far not refused their endorsement.
And as they made certain specific declara-
tions against our prohibitory legislation,
it is fair to presume that Ives accepts their
heresy and cordially endorses their plat
form. If ne does, no honest man can pre-,
tend that he is friend Of prohibition and
desires to protect the home against the de
basing influences of the whisky saloon.
"Fourth-It is within the power OF the
attorney general of this state TO make q
pretended enforcement of law farce, and
to nullify all the honest efforts OF loyal
county attorneys TO vindicate 1t; hence
would it be wise for us to close eyes and
allow an open enemy to gain that strong
! hold of effective power? | say no. steE
| out of the way TO allow our people to torct
the issue for this important office squarely
so that our genuine prohibitionists may
| not bs blamed or accused Of assisting the
rummies into power" 81,
! Mr. Kent further says, in his letter: y
| have always voted the Democratic ticket
| of the high license order. In 1884 was
delegate to the Democratic state conven
| ton from Mclean county, Illinois,
| moved to Kansas in 1886, and from law
yers standpoint soon saw that prohibition
! half enforced beat high license fully en-
/ forced. and, true TO my convictions, be
came third party prohibitionists, ant
! have remained and am now prohibition
/ its for principle alone"

ACTION SUSPENDED.

CHICAGO H., Oct. l6-The Chicago and
Alton road has agreed to suspend action
on its notice of a proposed reduction in
lumber ana coal rates between Chicago
and Kansas City. This is one of the re-
suits of hearing today by the board of
chairmen relative to the division of traffic
at southwestern Missouri river points.
The Chicago and Atoms willingness TO
suspend action was brought about by
assurances that an equitable division of
traffic would be made with good share
given to the Alton.
