MR.. SAGE WILL AID M'LEOD.
Elaborate Plans for the New
Road Into the City.
Not Yet Submitted to Ill" People
or City Omcinls.

President Mcleod. OF the New York
the city again. He is talking very free
ly about his plans for bringing he's road
into New York.
He says that there will he no delay in
constructing ,he branch from the main
line near Erewsters to New York, and
that some arrangement will u~ndoubted-
ly be made with the Manhattan Rail-
way Company to bring passengers right
into New York.
The ermin depot. he says. will be in
every way as fine and attractive as the
Grand Central, and will be right in the
heart of the city.
He will not say definitely, however,
whether this depot will be located north
or south Of the Harlem River. In fact,
the decision upon this point will depend
largely upon the success of future ne
got.ations with the Elevated railway
people.
All any rate, he says, there viii be a
big reduction in passenger rates be
tween New York and Boston and other
New England points as "A result of the
opening of ,he new route. The big
freight depots, which the Company pro-
poses to construct in this city, Will be
north of the Har.em River in all proba-
bility, for "A considerable tract OF AN
mas already been secured in the an
nCXei district for terminal facilities.
There IL some talk of independent
tracks down Second avenue for the pur-
pose of bringing passengers into town.
In that cast the Rapid Transit Commits
sioners will be asked TO grant privil-
eyes to the new line. The question of
east-siie rapid transit may thus be
made an important factor in the New
England scheme proposed by Mr., Nc
l.eOd.
As stated already, however, none OF
these projects has yet been submitted
either to the Elevated railway people
or the city officials. Active negotiations
for the purpose of securing the neces-
sary concessions may not be opened for
some time To come.
II it is possible the new passenger de,
pot will be located somewhere along
Second avenue. MIR. Mcleod goes 81
far as to stat" that designs for its con
struction hav already been offered "a
the Company.
The directors have placed all the busi,
ness arrangements in the hands Of Mr..
ahead and carry out the scheme In his
ONn way.
Russell Sage is credited with being a
powerful hacker OF IN" New FuH'du,i
scheme. II is said hat he will use all
his Influence towards bringing about An
.greement between Mr.. Mcleod and
the Manhattan Railway Company.
la this respect he appears To he some
what AT odds with President George j,
Gould, who SIN maintains thtt he
knows nothing OF any contract between
the Elevated road apd MIR, Mcleod with
reference to the transfer OF Passengers
whcn the new road Is completed.
Mr. Sage STAGED 10 an 'ENtnlus w uIld
reporter that Ha VAS very tri,ni.N to Mr..
! Mcleod and would do all In hls power
to aid him. bat further than This he re
fused to talk. lie would not say that
he mad any, definite understandings
with Nr. Mcleod in connection with
| tht. \tu- England terminal scheme.

authoritative could be learned
to-day.
on Mr.. Flint's desk, however. lay this
forenoon one of the. Krupp Manufacture
ing .Company's catalogues. Inquiry, fol-
owing this hint, revealed the fact that
Flint & Co. have received estimates from
all the large manufacturers in this
country. and Europe. There is little rea-
son to doubt that not half has been told
OF the extent of the purchases made
or contemplated by Flint & Co. for
Brazil.
Concerning the alleged violation of the
neutrality laws should n crew be OBJ
tained from here to man I'll Cid. Flint
d Co. are but little troubled. 1t was
said there this morning that section
$3.50 of the United States Revised Stat
utes, which seems to cover the case in
point, would not interfere with the ship
ping of a crew on board FL Cid.
Following Is the law:
Every person who, within the Territory or iuris-
Gict'on Of the United States, cnlists or enters him

more than three years.
The United States have not, as IT was
said at Flint & Co.'S. taken official no.
tice of the difficulty between President
peiXoto and Admiral Mello.
50 far as the United states were con-
cerned Brazil was SIN a neutral power
and Melio merely "A privateer.
1t was learned to-day from u. Il.
Dearborn, of % Beaver street, that the
reported purchase of the britannia by
Flint & Co. positively took place. Mr..
Dearborn says the SAFE was consum-
mated yesterday afternoon, but refuses
to give the sgures in the transaction.
The Destroyer had not arrived at Erie
RaSin at , O'Clock to-day. but President
g. =. Bushnell, Of the Ericsson Coast
Defense Company, thought that she
would surely arrive from Newport be-
fore night.
IN Il despatch from Baltimore to-day
William 7. Master, President OF the
Columbian Iron Works. says that in So
far as the cruiser Montgomery is con-
cerned there is no foundation for the
statement that negotiations are in prog
rcss for her sale to the Brazilian Gov

shortly before II o'clock this morning
FL Cid arrived at the Morgan iron works
on the East River, having been lowed

Snow AvaInnches In the West.

One of the greatest, and, in some re-

threaten miners and mining camps in
the mountains of the west and north.
west at this season and on into the
spring is from the tremendous av-
alanches of snow that sweep down the
mountain sides, carrying away and
burying everything in their path. The
edge of a terrific snowslide near Kaslo,
Wash, recently swept over the en-
trance to a mine, carried away all the
buildings, blacksmith shops. sheds,
storehouses and four or five hundred
tons of ore, and two miners, who ran
out from the mine opening to see what
was the cause of the great roaring
sounds. The men are buried under one
hundred and fifty feet of snow and
their bodies will not be recovered until
late in the spring.

A Hot Water Slot Machine.

Paris is now supplied with novel
sort of fountain for furnishing hot
water to the people. An automatic
machine is used, to which the water is
conducted by means of subtcrrancan
pipes. 1t runs through n coiled-up cop
per tubing three hundred feet long, and
is heated during it's progress through
this by gas, which is turned on by a
coin equivalent in valac to one cent.
The amount of hot water supplied is
about eight'quarts.
