A FERRY COMBINE.
The Resale Will Carry
Passengers Only.
AND THE SILVA FREIGHT.
An Important Deal Pending Which
VIII Strengthen the Opposition
Movement-The Davie Line.

The most important news of the day
concerning competing ferry lines is the
news that deal is about TO be effected be-
tween the Whitney Company and the
Davie Transpor tation Company, whereby
the two concerns will combine, the Whit
ney Company to carry freight only and
the Davie line to carry passengers exclu-
sively on the Oakland run.
This com bin alton has been talked of for
some time past, but the news was only
made public yesterday morning.
No agreement has been entered into as
yet, but negotiations are pending and will
be completed wien another boat is secured
for the passenger run, SWAich will occur in
few days, as Manager Morgan is now
employing his time in trying to secure a
suitable vessel.
Manager McGovern of the Whitney line
did not deny that his company would
probably cooperate with the Davie line,
and until arrangements are definitely de-
cided upon neither side cares to be inter-
viewed.
The truth of the report that negotiations
were pending was admitted. however.
Tie Dayie TRANSFORMATION Company has
issued its prospectus. which is quoted
briefly below:
The R0sale has comfortable accommodations
for 800 passengers, aud Will make the iun b.
tween the foot OF Harrison street, Oakland
and the foot OF Market street, San Francisco. in
twenty-five minutes, a rate of speed that can
not be attained by any other steamer on the
bay.
A large and powerful freight-bo will ply
regularly between the two cities.
The necessity for new ferry system between
Oakland ana San francisco has been ed
by the UNI easODable demands of the Southern
Pacific. and this necessity Is accentuated by
the disregard of tie arrogant corporation for
the comfort ana safety OF its patrons.
Two large and rapidly growing cities are sep.
arated by less than five miles Of water. The
people of these cities are entitled TO and de-
mand safer and more raDid-transportation at
fair compensation for the service rendered
Thus far they have had neither one nor the
other.
As early as practicable the company will
erect on its premises, at the foot Of Harrison
street, large warehouses Of corrugated iron,
thus giving 10 the merchants OF Oakland an &C.
commodation they have not hitherto enjoyed
warehouse facilities.
Over so, 900 shares of the company's stock is
already placed, and The fact that merchants and
other business men, and indeed all classes,
have a direct pecuniary interest in the enter
prise gives substantial guarantee of the sue
cess and permanent establishment of The new
ferry system.
Some of the street railroads of Oakland
will probably enter the fght in connection
with the Dave Company.

A WIDOWS FOLLY.
A Snare From Which She Is Trying

20 Escape.
Mrs. Virginia G. Rawle, Louisiana
widow, who arrived in this city about three
months ago to wed an individual named
c. A. Maxwell from Colorado. is now seek
ing to disentangle herself from curious
matrimonial snare.
The parties are each on the shady side of
forty. The woman is as tall as Juno and
the man as fat as Eglon and very sporty in
his tastes. The medium that brought
them together as lovers was a Chicago
matrimonial paper.
Mrs. Rawle is the mother of two chill
dren and the owner of cOnsid cradle prop
erty in Louisiana. According to her own
story her brother wanted to force her 10
marry millionaire in her own State. She
LETT her home to avoid the man of her
rother's choice. In answer to her adj
vertisement for nus band Maxwell wrote
to her After some correspondence they
agreed to meet in San Francisco.
She became so infatuated. she says, with
Maxwell that she decided property in Ho-
mer City, La. valued at $4,000, TO him.
Then Maxwell'S partiality for other women
began ana she tried to win him back by
supplying him with money to bet on the
races. Maxwell bet on the wrong horses
and then suggested that he had nothing
left to set up housekeeping. The widow
invoked the aid of a lawyer and detective
to regain possession of he property already
decided to Maxwell. They succeeded in
inducing him to deed the property to the
detective under pretense that he was SELL
ing it for a consideration. Then the law
yer and the detective charged big fee for
their services, which the widow refused to
pay. The upshot of the matter is that the
foolish woman has now three instead of
two men to fight She has retained Bar
clay Henley to protect her interests. who
proposes to see what can be done to make
all the three adventures disgorge.

At the meeting held yesterday several

earnest workers has been Captain James

little hope Of his recovery.
