AROUND BY THE GULF.
The Illinois Central Reaching for
Overland Traffic.
Other Lines Strongly Object to Max
ing a Passenger Rate by
That Route.

CHICAGO, Oct. 20-Chairman Caldwell
of the Western Passenger Association has
issued call for meeting of the advisory
committee of the association, TO be held
next Tuesday, for the purpose of listening
to the report of the chairman regarding
the arrangements made with the Canadian
Pacific on the question of commission on
emigrant business.
All the members of the committee were
unable to remain at the meeting in New
York which was held this week and
finally Chairman Caldwell was appointed
to carry on negotiations with the Canadian
Pacific and report at meeting of the COM
mittee to be called subsequently. Il is
understood that the chairman made ar
rangements that will be satisfactory to all
the association lines.
1t is also probab BILE that at this meeting
date will be set for the Illinois Central to
argue its right to have a round-trip rate of
500 to California from Chicago, the
tickets reading via New Orleans. Some
arrangements will without question be
made by which the Illinois Central will be
induced TO withdraw It's notice of quitting
the Western Passenger Association if this
rate is not granted.
The main objection of the other lines to
the rate is that it will demoraliZe the rates
to California through the other gateways.
They are willing that the Illinois Central
should have it's rate if that road is willing
to qua autee that The decentralization shall
not reach these points. As the Illinois
Central has already said that it was will
ing t. protect the other lines in this re-
spect there should be little difficulty in ar
ranging the matter to the satisfaction of
ali concerned.
A meeting Of the transcontinental lines
was to have been held during the last
week for the purpose Of reviving the
Transconunental Passenger Association.
but the plan seems to have fallen fat. The
Southern Pacific announced that meeting
would be held, but the other Western lines
are in ignorance as to the date of the
meeting In fact they do not know
whether it will be held at all.

TERMS TO TAMMANY.
Grant Wants to Make the Ticket
Over.
Otherwise He VIII Not Consent to
Run for Mayor of New
York City.

NEW YORK, Oct. 20.-Although Hugh
Grant, the substitute for Nathan Strauss
as Tammany's mayoTaltg candidate, has
not definitely stated the condition upon
which he permitted his name to go upon
the ticket, there is more tn an a possibility
that they may have a material bearing
upon national politics. An intimation has
been given that first of all Mr.. Grant will
require the substitution of some other
name upon the Assembly ticket for that of
Phillip Weissig. whose reputation ante
dates its discussion before the Senate
police investigation committee this week.
Weissig made speech in the Asse bly,
three years ago which was so discredita-
bic that he fell under the displeasure of
Richard Cr ker. who refused 10 allow him
to be renominated. This year, however,
he slipped past the lines, and, with the aid
of State Senator T. d. Sullivan, secured a
nomination. Sullivan was also the sponsor
of ''Silver Dollar" Smith. who if Grants
intentions are rightly understood, must
Withdraw from the aldermanic ticket.
More important than these proposed
changes, however, is this possible reorgaD-
iZaiion of the Congressional ticket. The
understanding is that Mr.. Grant will re-
Quire that COngressmen Warner, Cochran
and Dunphy. whom Tammany had
turned down" for the reason, as alleged
by Mr.. Grace, that they had voted for the
Wilson bill, be placed on the Tammany
Congressional ticket. Only one of the
nine Congressman who voted for the Will
son bill was given a denomination by the
Tammany Democracy. How the condi-
tion above indicated is to be compiled with
is not known.
Warmers district has been given to
Amos J. Cummings, for whom Tammany
has espe ecial regard. and in Cockran's place
George B. Mcclellan was nominated. The
latter is young and may be persuaded that
it is his duty to wait awhile for so dis
tinguished an honor as a seat in Congress.
Cummings is not likely to be so easily dis
posed Of. Walsh, who has been nomin ted
in Dunphy's place, may also be rebellious
while Dunphy's demonstrated tenacity OF
what he considers to be his rights will moi
help to make the way plain. However
the main problem which will confront
Tammany in the changes outlined is how
to provide for both Cummings and War.

CABLE TO HONOLULU.
An English Company Wanted to
Land on the Island

HONOLULU, Oct 13.-On the last steamer
Fleming arrived in Honolulu. and since
that time he has been In close commuuica-
tion with the Government. 1t has recently
become known that Mr.. Fleming is here in
the interests of the English Government
for the purpose of seeing what concessions
can be obtained from Hawaii in the event
of cable touching here. Fleming has
made proposition to the Government to
cede Neckar Island to Great Britain. but
this the Government does not wish to do.
Fleming has also asked for the exclusive
right to land a cable on Hawaii, and this
also the Government objected TO.
The matter came up in the secret session
of the councils at their last meeting and
although what was decided has not been
divrlged. enough has been learned To sho W
that Fleming will not get all he asked for.
Minister of Finance Damon is said 10 have
wanted to grant everything that Fleming
asked for, but in this he was opposed by
Minister of Foreign Affairs Hatch. who
claimed that the cable would have to come
here sooner or later anyway, and that it
made no difference whether the Govern
ment gave any money or privileges 10 the
English company or not. He proposed
submitting the whole matter 10 the United
States, and it is supposed that this was the
decision arrived at.

the defendants constituted felonies. Judge
Cowine fixed ex-Captain Dougherty's bail
at $40. 900 and The bonds of the other de-
Pendants at $4,000 each. Dougherty's bail
was afterward reduced to $1,000.
All the indictments were based upon
evidence furnished by Augusta Thurow.
