SEMI-AUTHORITATINE DENIAL.

New York, Aug. 29.-Charles II.
Coater, of the firm Of Drexel, Nor
gan e. Co.. said re knew nothing
about the majority of the securities
of the Union Pacific Railroad being
placed in the hands of the firm.
He further said he knew nothing
about the rumor that Jay Gould
had relinquished control of the road
and that J. Pierpont Morgan was
to be the leading spirit of the man
agement.

JAY GOULD OUT.

CHICAGO, Aug. pa morning
paper says: ut is generally under
stood that Jay Gould has virtually
relinquished control of the Union
Pacific Railway, and that a majority
of the stocks and bonds of the COM
pany have been placed in the
banking firm Of Drexel, Morgan &
Co. The general opinion is that
Drexel, Morgan & Co. has acquired
control of the Union Pacific in the
interests of the Vanderbilts. They
are the financial agents of the Van
derbilts and are also in control of
the Chicago, milwaukee, Il St. Paul.
This indicates that a close alliance
between the Union Pacific and the
Northwestern and the St. Paul
roads is contemplated. The Van.
derbilts have long been anxious to
secure a foothold west of the Mis-
souri, river and gain an independ-
ent outlet for their system of roads
to the Pacific coast. 1t is not likely
that they will be content with the
Union Pacific, but that they mean
to acquire other important railway
systems west of the Rocky noun
tains. A contest is said to be now
in progress between the Wander
bilts, the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy and the Atchison, Topeka
& Santa Fe for the Denver & Rio
Grande Railroad with the present
prospect that the Vanderbilts will
carry off the plum. If the Wander
bilts succeed in getting the Rio
Grande it is believed that their
next move will be to secure control
of the Southern, Pacific, and there
are no serious obstacles in the way
CT their getting it. With this road
in their control the Vanderbilts
will be able to dictate terms to all
other lines so far as through traffic
between the Atlantic and Pacific is
concerned. Gould probably is
interested in this scheme, and has
an understanding with the Wander
bilts and Drexel Il Co. whereby his
railroad interests in the west will
receive ample protection.
NOT CoNrRADICTED IN NEW YORK
New York, Aug. 29.-In regard
to the report that Jay Gould had
retired from control of the Uniol
Pacific and that a close combina
ton of the Union Pacific, St. Paul
and Northwestern would soon b.
consummated, nothing definite
either in the way Of confirmation
or denial, could be learned here
today. But it it was general,
understood that Pierpont Morgan
and his friends recently bough
large blocks of Union Pacific stock
and that most Of it was for tn,
, Vanderbilt account.

DOWN NINETY FEET.
A Plunge That Sent Perhaps Forty
People to Death.
Special 70 the Republic.

to be recorded today in the story Of
the total destruction of a passenger
train on the Western North Caro-
lima railroad, an accident in which
engineer, fireman, brakeman and
twenty passengers were dashed to
instant death. A debris of which
only one man, the conductor,
emerged able to walk back to the
nearest station and give the news
of the disaster.
The train which met such sud-
den and such complete destruction
was the fast passenger and mail
train which left Salisbury for Ashe-
vile over the Western North Caro-
lima road this morning at o'clock.
1t was composed of a baggage car,
an express car, mail car, first and
second-class cars and sleeper. 1t
met its fearful doom at the high
bridge over Third creek, two miles
west of Statesville. The schedule
of this train is a very fast one.
Heavy clouds obscured the skies as
Engineer Billy West, in answer to
the conductors whistle, pulled open
the throttle and moved slowly out
Of Salisbury on the fated journey
this morning.
THE NIGHT RUN.
The yellow headlight showed the
steel rails ahead cleaning out,
while the trees and shrubbery
alongside the track glistened with
moisture. The rain beat down
upon the train and the exhaust
coal from the engine ratified on the
roofs of the cars and accumulated
in little drifts in sheltered places
about the car steps and on the
platforms. The old engineer, though
he made fast trips on such nights,
was familiar with the track and
road, knowing every curve, every
trestle, every bridge, every hill and
every cut.
Two miles west Of Statesville is
a high bridge over Third creek
The bridge was built years ago Of
solid masonry. 1t is 80 feet high
and is arched for the passage Of
wagons on the roadway beneath
as we'll as for the waters of the
creek. 1t is as safe as a bridge
could be, in fact, track on solid
ground could be made no safer
Trains, therefore, do not slack
speed on approaching. The fatec
train was running at the rate o
forty miles an hour when the pilo
of the engine threw shadow oveI
in its approach. In the center o
the bridge there was a gap in th'
cleaning of the rails. The engin'
struck the gap, gave a great bount
and fell into space. Along with j
went every car in the train, on
after the other, with their human
loads crashing upon the har'
ground ninety feet below. TIL
engine struck ground first aud the
upon it came one car after anothe
Xwith q horrible crash. Every ca
was smashed to pieces and til
wreckage was heaped in the air i
a confused and disordered pill
and down under and among
were the torn and mangled bodie
of the crew and passengers. A
eye witness who arrived on tn
scene just at daylight said:
AN APPALLING SIGHT.

The failure OF the extra session OF
the Legislature to de al justly and in
a statesman like manner with the
penitentiary question has brought a
serious complication upon the State
and the most difficult problem any
people have ever had to deal with.
1t is too late to lock the door after
the horse has been stolen. However,
the conduct of the miners leaves but
one alternative for the State author
ties, and that is to maintain the
majesty of the law by Furnishing the
offenders to the extent OF the law.
The injury that will result to Ten.
nessee from the Briceville affair Is
incalculable, no matter now it may
result. The Governor will no doubt
make heroic efforts to punish the Of
tenders, as he should do But pun
ish them as severely as the law may,
it will not cure the evil or relieve
Tennessee of tine stain. The miners
will receive no sympathy from law
abiding people, but those in authority
who have refused and failed in their
duty to settle this question, having
the present situation before THEN
eyes, will and should be held equally
responsible to share the odium with
them.
The passage Of the Myers House
bill would have prevented this and
forever settled the perplexing ques'
ton with justice to free labor and
with credit and profit to the State,
but the Senate was bent on its own
bill or nothing, and in this it was
backed by all the influence the lessees
could bring TO bear, and by numer-
Gus candidates seeking appointment
under it, by parties who had land to
sell to the State, and by citizens who
wanted fine prison located in Dd-
wilson county.
