The Atchison People Received Visit from

Restore Rates.

Restore Rates.
Special to the Gazette.
NEW YORK, May q jay Gould came
personally to Kidder, Peabody s. Co. this
morning and, in the words Of the Atch-
isou people, Congratulated them upon
their most valuable acquisition and de-.
clared himself DESTROYS of working in
harmony with them, and expressed a
willingness to restore rates over his
Southwestern system at once, and to
keep them on a paying basis. The
restoration of rates, however, is only
east of the Missouri.
The break in the price of the Atchison
to-day was due to heavy selling by COM
mission and steady pressure by local bear
brokers. The selling IS undoubtedly due
to marketing in advance of the new
Atchison stock to be exchanged
for St. Louis and San Francisco common
and preferred. The stock has been sold
in Boston as well as here, and if the ex-
ample of the Louisville and Nashville in
its new issue of stock two months ago is
any criterion, a good deal more will come
By request OF the Atchison directors
Frost and Winslow remain temporarily in

probably only until the directors meet

vel and Chairman Magoun of the Atchi-
son will be elected to corresponding
offices in the San Francisco.

An Important Ruling.

An important ruling WAS made by
Judge Gunnison at Erie, Pa, May 10.
N. A. Caldwell purchased local ticket
and by mistake got aboard a limited
train at Erie. After the train had left
tie city the conductor discovered that
Caldwell had only a local ticket and
stopped the train and put him off. The
passenger brought suit for $40 900 dam
ages and was awarded a verdict of 1915.
The railroad company took an appeal
and its exceptions were sustained by
Judge Gunuison 1T Erie, May Is, who
held that Caldwell ought TO have taken
the preoaution to ask at the ticket office
in regard to which train he should take,
that his ticket was not good on the lin
tied train and consequently he had no
business there.

ignation-The Goulds will Break Away
from the Pacific Mail, However.
Special to the Gazette.
NEW YORK, May 27.-The announce
ment in these dispatches yesterday that
George Gould resigned the presidency of
the Pacific mail, although founded on
facts, was premature. There will be no
contest at the Pacific mail election to-
morrow, however. The following ticket
for the directors has been agreed upon
by all parties in interest: C. P. Hunt
ington, I. E. Gates, Henry
Hart, Edward Lauterbach, Calvin S.
Brice, Samuel Thomas, Oliver Il.
Payne, j. B. Houston and one other still
to be named. This ticket will represent
over 90 200 shares. The Could will
rstire, although Houston has urged it as
a personal favor, and so have others in
interest, that Mr.. George Gould remain
in the company, but Gould insists his in
terests are so much larger in
other companies that he feels it neces-
sary to devote his attention more closely
to them and resign the management OF
the Pacific mail to those whose interests
in it are manifestly much larger than
his. 1t is learned to-day that the heavy
buyers during recent activity we're none
others than Senator CALVIN S. Bride and
Gen. Samuel Thomas. They secured
enough stock to obtain control. Both
gentlemen are interested largely in the
Manitoba road, and Gen. Thomas is also
director in the Canadian Pacific railroad.
This fact naturally leads to the idea that
the new management will run the Pacific
mail in the interest of the Canadian Pa
cifio instead of the Northern Pacific.

The Jerusnlem.Jnffa Road.

The Jerusalem correspondent of the
London Jewish Chronicle says that the
''foundation" for the Jsrusalem-Jaffa
railroad was laid on March 81, a cele-
bration attended by the pashs and iu-
fuential persons, with speeches, mark
ing the event. What the "founda-
tion' is we are not told: whether it is
the throwing up of a shovelful of
"dirt" or the laying of single sleeper.
It seems that the formalities concerning
the concession, which has been granted
TO Turkish subjects, but which must
really be carried out by foreigners, have
progressed very slowly, and there Is no
evidence that this opening will be fol-
lowed by much active work. An en-
eiReer, Mr.. Etienne, has, however, ar
rived on the ground. We noted last
week the formation OF company in
France to prosecute this work.
