COLORADO CATTLE.
j. H. zelf, President of the Cattle Growers
Association, Talks to The Herald,

j. H. Zelf, president of the Colorado Cat
tie Growers association, was seen at the
Walker house yesterday by HERALD re-
porter.
"Colorado's cattle ranges" said Mr..
Zeli, 'are distributed over the territory,
one of the largest being located near Rifle,
stretching over the Grand valley. There
are also extensive ranges southeast of
Denver, which city is the principal ship
ping point. The Colorado Packing com
pany's works have been in existence eight
or ten years and they are now building an
enormous plant. There are on an average
from $4,000 to 10000 head of cattle shipped
every year. The winter has been very
favorable and few cattle have been
destroyed by snow. The Brush Land and
Cattle company, and the Ebert County
Live Stock company are the largest cattle
companies though there are a hundred
different organizations interested in cattle
raising. The cattle interests have held
their own against general decreasing
market. Denver has large stock yard
that is doing a prosperous business"

To Discipline the Burlington.

CHICAGO, March 24.-The beard of rul-
ings of the Central Traffic and Trunk Line
associations has begun operations under
the recent agreement to boycott all con-
Meeting lines that continue to pay commits
sions. The board has sent two or three
kilograms to the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy management within few days
claiming to have satisfactory evidence that
it has been paying commissions to eastern
agents. The Burlington people have re-
Piled that as no specific charge is made, no
specific answer can be given; that they
have not intended to ignore the agreement,
and have paid no commissions to persons
not asking for them. They contend, how
ever, that the board of rulings has no right
to demand discontinuance of commission
paying without some guarantee that the
burlington will continue to receive suit
able and equitable share Of passenger bust
ness from the east. The latest dispatch
from the board of rulings intimates that
unless the Burlington begins March 81 to
conform to the rule, tickets Of that road 10
eastern offices will be boycotted. 1t is
doubtful, however, if this threat can be
carried out, as there is not the most abso
lutte harmony among the roads parties te
the agreement. Another conference will
probably be held.

THE COLUMBIAN MINE.
Project Of Constructing Great Mine Under
the Exposition Building.

The scheme of constructing an under
ground mine at the Worlds Columbian
exposition is attracting considerable discus
sion among mining men.
To further this project George w. Grove
is now in this city and gives the following
as the plan for the construction of the Chi
cago mine: The shaft will be sunk 500 feet
and from the bottom great chamber or
gallery will be excavated in an oval form.
Running off from the main gallery will be
innumerable drifts IN which the actual
methods of mining will be exhibited. In
some of these ores will be built up as they
appear in nature, and in others the various
mining appliances will be kept at work.
Gold mines, silver mines, copper mines, tin
mines, iron mines, coal mines and mines Of
all other kinds will be represented.
The plan of incorporation is as follows
The company is organized under the laws
of the state of Illinois. 1t has a capital
stock of 81 ,000,0 C0 in shares of $40 each.
The incorporators are Ed. F. Browne, John
B. Carson, G. J. Bliven, H. A. w. Tabor,
j. b. Wheeler, Frank j. Scott and Joseph
B. Whittier.
1.-The financial plan that is being pursued
| is as follows:
! Sell 90, 900 shares of common stock at
$40 per share to the original subscribers,
! they paying in but so per cent. or % per
share at first, and to pay the balance, if
emergencies arise, or if it is decided to pur-
chase the ores and display machinery, OF
additional attractions.
! 2-Sell $4,000 shares of preferred stock al
$40 per share, each certificate to have ter
admission tickets attached as a bonus.
Slater to sell %, 900 shares of preferred
stock at $40 per share, each certificate Il
have bonus of five admission tickets at
| tached.
1t is predicted that 40 per cent. Of the
people attending the fair will visit the mine
at an admission fee of SOC. This would
make the gross receipts foot up to some
thing like 81, 100000.

A NEW CLUB HOUSE
May be One of the Features at
Garfield Beach.
WITH TWO HUNDRED MEMBERS
The Building will be Cheap but Cozy,
and of the Summer Resort Pattern
Other Business Notes.

The society element is likely to take a
new departure at Garfield Beach during
the coming bathing season.
The sons and daughters of millionaires
as well as their ''papas" and 'tmamas"-and
that more numerous ultra-respectable ele-
ment, with six ciphers to their unit-have
had a surfeit of loafng and inviting their
souls under the old sheds at Garfield and
enervating deliciousness of lunching on
strongly buttered pop corn and cold sand
witches.
Travelling to Garfield in stock cars may
continue to be the enforced fad for another
season, but this treatment on the part OF
great railway corporation has failed to
grow horns and hoofs ON the passengers or
to create a morbid desire to eat hay at the
other end of the journey. The efforts to
"cattleizen the patrons of Garfield Beach,
after many seasons of trial has utterly
| failed, and the refining instincts of cultured
people do not easily suffer any deteriora-
tion of their well-bred intentions.
| While the Garfield patrons cannot be
kept away from the invigorating waters by
the worst train service that can be devised
| they, nevertheless, aspire TO the environ
ments that are common to civilized beings.
Having given up the idea of the railway
company building hotel they are planning
means and measures to secure the same
accommodations on the club plan.
A number of young men last evening
met Tor the purpose OF setting the scheme
a-foot, and though their meeting was
private this much was CLEANED.
1t is proposed to limit the membership to
200. The membership fee will be $50, for
which each subscriber will get one
share Of the company's stock. This Will
give the company $4,000. The architects
| of the city will be asked to submit sketches
for the largest two-story frame building
that can be erected for that sum. The only
ornamentalism-and this will be very plain
will be wide porch extending along the
entire front of the building. The first hoor
will contain large dining room in one end
and spacious parlor and reception room
in the other The second floor will be di-
vided into small sleeping apartments, plain,
but comfortable as those found at many OF
the country places in the east.
A large furniture dealer proposes tc
furnish the place throughout and accept
therefor a mortgage on the building ano
i. furniture, with a contract that all the
profits of the bar and sleeping rooms shall
be applied towards its liquidation.
The dining room will be made self-sus
tanning, the intention being to make the
service the feature of the club. 1t will bf
placed in the hands of first-class caterer
The sleeping rooms will be in charge o.
two matrons, who will be in constant at
tendance day andnight.
The club is to be in every sense private
hotel and the object is not so much styl,
as comfort
The 1.-TWO hundred" will be the set O
the season, and there will be great scram
BILE to secure its privileges, which ar,
astonishingly reasonable.

The perrien Abduction Case.

Especial to THE RERALD-Examlner Dispatch
DETROIT, March "a. The excitement over
the abduction of Millionaire Joseph Perrien
last week has brought out particulars of
another mysterious disappearance from
Perrien's residence about Christmas time.
The missing person is former servant of
Perrien's, named Carolina Beck. Her
brother has called at the miller's residence
from time to time to try to get an interview
with his sister, but without avail, as
the family has always put him off with ey-
cuses that the girl was i'll or away from
home. A reporter got hold Of the story to-
day and secured an interview with Perrien,
who admitted having knowledge of the
girls whereabouts, saying she was in one
OF the city institutions, and adding that the
police had the particulars of the case. The
circumstance is regarded as peculiar in
view of last weeks events

PrTsBURG, March 4.-Local papers will

Baltimore & Ohio proposes to parallel the
Pennsylvania system from one end to the
other, forming an almost air line route from
Baltimore to Chicago and to reduce the dis
lance from Pittsburg to the latter city by
seventy five miles. The Baltimore & Ohio
recently purchased the Pittsburg & West

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch.l
New YORK, March 24.-The scheme to
unite the great railroad systems Of the
west and southwest under one general
is making some progress. The
financial departments Of the Union Pacific,
Atchison, Missouri Pacific, Southern Pa
cifc, Central Pacific and Pacific Mail
Steamship company, are preparing detailed
statements showing the condition and earn
ing capacity Of their respective properties.
These statements are to form the basis
upon which the relative value of each prop
erty is to be determined. The plan is to
form new corporation, with capital
stock large enough to cover all interests
that may be willing to join. II satisfac
tory superintendent of values can be made,
the stock OF the several companies will be
deposited in the treasury of the central
company in exchange for trust certificates
issued by that company. The old corpora
lions will be kept up and will perform their
internal functions as before, but in the
matter of getting business and dividing
profits there will be a unity Of
interests, there will be no competi-
ton and joint agencies wherever such a
thing is possible Conferences between
Jay Gould, G. P. Huntington and the At
Gibson people are of frequent occurrence
There is perfect agreement as to the advis-
ability of the proposed combination. The
hardest nut to crack is the determination
of the proportionate share of eacn company
in the new corporation. 1t is probable this
point will have to be decided by arbitra-
ton. 1t is Mr.. Gould's idea to refer all
disputed points to three or five arbitrators,
to be selected from the presidents of trust
companies and eminent bankers. G. P.
