The Chicago Great Western.

CHICAGO, March 22.-At a meeting
OF the board of directors OF the Chicago,
st. Paul and Kansas City road, it was
decided to lease the entire system to the
Chicago Great Western Railway COM
pany, corporation recently formed in
this state by A. B. Stickney and others.
Mr.. Stickney, in an interview, said
the affairs of the road are in
most fourishing condition. The volume
OF its traffic is now only exceeded by
two western roads, the Alton and the
Northwestern, and is constantly grow
ing. To accommodate this volume of
business requires large expenditures for
additional terminal facilities and equip
ment. 70 meet the emergency the

WASHINGTON, March 22.-The entire
session of the cabinet today was con-
sumed in consideration of the Bering
sea question, Lord Salisbury's reply to
Wharton's note insisting upon the re-
newal of the modus vivendi, forming
the basis of the discussion. The utmost
reticence is maintained by the members
of the cabinet, but it is believed Sails
bury's note is unsatisfactory, his reply
to the main point being not de-
cisive. There is also reason to
believe that he suggests as a condition
precedent to any modus eivendi, that
the United States should obligaSe itself
to indemnify Canadian vessel owners in
the event of the decision of the arbitrat-
ers against the United States. 1t is said
reply is now being prepared in which
