LONDON Feb. 2l-In the house of COM
mons yesterday the Right Honorable II.
w. Fowler, president of the local govern
ment board, introduced bill regulating
the registration of electors and removing
the onerous restrictions of the existing

year to three months, and repeals the pro-

NEW York, Feb. 2i-'fhe dissolution of
the Reading combination was begun by
the opposition of the New Jersey authori-
ties and the courts to the formation of a
coal trust. Although Mr.. Mcleod and his
associates pooh poohed the opposition for
while, they finally had to give way to it,
and complete severance of the relations
between the Reading and Jersey Central
was announced. The facts relating to the
Readings incursion into New England,
the series OF brilliant moves which appar-
emily placed the new Poughkeepsie bridge,
the Boston and Maine railroad, the New
York and New England railroad and the
Connecticut River railroad in the control
OF the great combination are still familial
eyentsin the public mind
1t was this New England extension,
which practically was a declaration of war
against the powerful New York, New
Haven and Hartford railroad corporation,
that caused tho successive uprising of oh.
stacles over which Mr.. Mcleod had been
stumbling for the past few months. BY
invading the territory of the consolidated
system he antagoni2ed strong financial
interests represented by Drexel, Morgan &
Co., which at the outset was his most
powerful hacker. The relations between
Mr.. j. Pierrepont Morgan and the Read
ing management at once became strained,
and it was not long before Mr., Mcleod
found his feet slipping Oh his financial
basis

THE SYMPATHY FOR DIES.
SEPS.

A few weeks ago all France was
bowling at the heels of De Lesseps
and demanding that justice be melted
out to the man who had betrayed his
trust to the French people and rob
bed his countrymen of millions.
Now that he has been sentenced to
five years imprisonment, all France
IS bowed down with sympathy for
the old man and they are shouting
themselves hoarse with "bravos' for
his beautiful and plucky wife who
stands bravely beside her husband
amid the storm that breaks about
him in his old age.
France is nothing if not sentiment
al and theatrical Stripped Of all its
glamor and romance, it is simply a
case of where a man, trusted implic-
itely by whole nation, shamefully
betrayed his trust, has been detected
in his crimes and convicted. If
there is any sympathy to be disposed
of, it belongs to the thousands of
poverty stricken homes all over
France, who are0ow trying to keep
the wolf of want from the door and
drinking sour wine, because the De-
Lesseps crowd made the big cut in
Panama swim with champagne
French justice has no apologies or
explanations to make because of it's
dealings with the national culprits.
