GOULD IS SASSY"
He Says if Stockholders Don't Like His
style They Can Put Him Out.

Special TO the Gazette
ST. LOUIS, No. April 7.-Jay Gould will
not attend the meeting of the advisory
board of the Western traffic association.
Gould and party leave for Texas over the
Iron Mountain tomorrow. The trip over
at least portion of the Union Pacific will
be made before Gould returns TO New
York. In an interview Gould says in ref
erence to the new mortgage for the Union
Pacific that new bond covering the whole
property and including the government
lien will be advantageous.
III reference to the joint ownership of the
Southwestern properties he said: Moth
ing has been determined on that matter
vet. OF course, it could only be accom-
plishcd by q number of wealthy individuals
who held stock in the various companies
joining their interests for mutual protec-
tion who could not control the corporation
themselves. There are some curious things
about the control of great corporations. l
don't own control IN any corporation what
ever | make it a rule never to hold q con-
trolling interest Stockholders in any one
of the corporations in which / am inter
ested can turn me out if they feel like it.
There are 1000 stockholders in the Mis-
souri, Pacific 5000 in the Western Union
and $500 in Manhattan. and if the majority
of stockholders don't like my management
they can put me out, and wouldn't cry

Vanderbilt and the Milwaukee.

CHICAGO, ILL. April "A report from
New York that Cornelius Vanderbilt is
likely TO enter the directory OF the
Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul rail
road on invitation of foreign stockholders
is received with great deal OF credeace
here and has revived the old report that
the road in question is TO be consolidated
with the Chicago and Northwestern. A
man whose predictions are usually based
on good Judgment said to-day There is
no doubt that it would be a good thing
for both of these great systems if they
were placed under one management and
their interests made identical. They are
competitors at all important points in
Wisconsin. Minnesota and Dakota and 1T
many points in Iowa, and the amalgama-
ton would enable them to control the
traffic OF very large territory without
fear of competition"

PEAKS DEFALCATIONS
Clerk McKir, Makes Statement in Order
to Clear Himself.

KANSAS CITY, No, April Horace Nc
urer Peak, who cmbezzled 81. COO OF the
city's money, consented to-day for the first
time to tell what he knew about the defal-
cation. He says the shortage began in
September, 1889, when Kingston. Peak &
Co. failed The ey-treaSurer was men,
Der OF that firm, and just before the failure
made good out of the City's funds several
large checks of the firm, which had been
dishonored at the bank Peak was also
treasurer Of the Central Presbyterian
church, and had wrongfully appropriated
$500 of the church's money. When the
warrants were drawn on him by the trustees
he would pay them and instruct his clerk to
put the warrants in the cash drawer and
charge them against him. Whenever his
bondsmen would make an investigation of
his office Peak would borrow enough cash
to cover the shortage and Immediately af-
terward would return it to the persons
from whom he had borrowed it Mckim
states that Peak has been attempting to
throw the responsibility of the defalcation
upon the employees Of the Office and that he
has been assisted in this by the investigat-
ing committee of The council. who would
not hear his (Nickim's) evidence McKim
also claims that the prosecuting attorney has
agreed to nolle prosecute the criminal cases
against Peak, which comes up for trial in a
short time, on the grounds of lack of evil
dence. Mckim makes the above statement
to clear himself and fellow clerks from the
suspicion that has been cast upon them.

The proposed line from Stephenville to
the Texas and Pacific coal companys mines
al Thurber IS still in q state of delightful
uncertainty The right Of way has been
guaranteed. and all that IS wanted IS for
the Fort Worth and Rio Grande TO build
the road and operate it.
The Importance q this road TO Fort Worth
is fully Is great as il is TO Stcphensville.
Ii Will give Fort Worth a competing line to
what IS said to De the finest body Of coal in
the state the output from which last week
was 100 cars. and competing line means
the reduction of the price of coal nearly ii
not quite oue-halG Coal laid down in this
city at e. 10 means an added impetus to
manufacturing enterprises, which cannot
be made u success without cheap and
abundant fuel The people of Stephen
vile are in earnest. and if the road IS not
bull, by the Rio Grande 1t viii be by the
Houston and Texas Central, in which event
Fort Worth might whistle for cheap fuel.
The matter viii probably be settled one
way or the other to-day. and representa-

people of ErAth county have friendly
feeling for this city, and desire that more
cordial relations may be established, deem
