Wall Street laughed yesterday az the rur;or from
Pittsburc 10 the effect that the Manhattan E!e-
waited Railway mad made contract with the West
inghouse Electric ana Manufacturing Company to
supply electric motors, which would supplan the
steam system OF so-called RAPID transit at present
IN use on Ire road. No one believed that the
Manhattan would contemplate such an improve
ment as that would be. much less that they had
actually made arrangements for II. and so nobody
vas surprised at Colonel Ean's promp: denial OF
The improbable story. He declared 1t to be ZEN
tIreIv without foundation" The Manhattan had
never entered into negotiations Of the Kind with
the Westinghouse Company.
When asked II the company expected at any time
10 make the change. he said that u the time came
when IL could be done at a cost which the manage
rlent were willing TO pay. why then electricity
would probably take the place OF steam.

A NEW PARTY.
A Protection and Free silver Platform
VIII Be Adopted.

Minneapolis, Nov. ia Gary, S. d.,
correspondent of the Journal wires the
following information obtained from
the amanuesis Of one of the leaders OF
the movement; For several months
an understanding has existed among the
leading silver men of the United States
that an emphatic demand shall be
made that the Republican platform OF
1896 shall contain an unequivocal decla-
ration in favor of the unlimited free
coinage Of silver, and in the event Of
failure with the Republicans to so de-
clare, a new party movement shall
forthwith be sprung with a two-plank
platform declaring simply for protec,
ton and free coinage. The manage
ment of the movement is largely In the
hands Of Senators Jones, Stewart and
Bettigrew, and they are looking to Sem
ator Cameron as presidential candi-
date in the event Of the birth Of new
party.
