The objection to Big Hogs.

In the Tapelo Times the following
argument favorable to tho small hog as
against the larger one is made:
There arc two objections to big
hogs:
"l. It costs more per pound to mako
pork OF very largo hogs.
"2. Our climate is too warm to save
such large meat. want long-bodied
hog, with straight back, small ears and
head and rather short legs and largely
developed hams, which is better for
eating or selling, to weigh at one year
about 200 pounds. There is good de-
mand now for small hogs with a good
deal OF lean on them."

A BATCH or RUMORs
Concerning the Baltimore & Ohio
AMI Southern Railways,
AND MATTERS PERTAINING THERETO,
Given Denial by Chairman Shaw Of the
Finance Committee Of the Baltimore
4 ohio-No Successor as Yet
III President Meyer.

BALrIaoRE, Md, Dec. 26.-The reha-
bilitated rumor that the consolidation
OF the Baltimore & Ohio and Southern
railway system is among the probabili-
ties of the near future Is attracting
some attention in financial circles here.
Color has been given to the report BY
by the presence here within the past
few days of President Samuel Spencer
OF the Southern, and the statement
that Mr.. ]. Pierpont Morgan, OF the
firm of Drexel, Morgan & Co., of New
York, the financial hackers of the
Southern railway, had spent several
hours here last Monday.
The uniting of the Baltimore & Ohio
and Southern would be deal OF the
greatest magnitude In contemporary
railroad history. 1t would point to the
bringing together of New York and
Mexico on the north and south. and
Chicago and st. Louis on the west, and
the Atlantic seaboard on the east, with
the intervening vast gridironed terri
tory, all within the scope OF d stupendous
railway system. The actual physical
connection could be accomplished at
or near Washington with insignificant
trouble in the way OF construction and
track laying.
Joseph Alexander Shaw, chairman OF
the finance committee of the Baltimore
& Ohio company, denies, however, that
there is any truth in the rumored con
solidation. He also gave an emphatiS
denial to the newly-revived statement
that a receivership for the baltimore 4
Ohio is contemplated. Being in deny
ing .-.,ad, Mai. Shaw went further
and denied several -...',.c--,. rumor'
touching the future OF the company
and the probable successor to President
Meyer.
The two subjects which are giving
the new board most to think about,
said Mr.. Shaw are the floating deb
and the future management Of thu
road. We will have to fund the former
and as to the latter, there Is differ
ence of opinion among the directors
Some favor the English method o
placing the management in the hand
of board with chairman an'
various committees, each of whicl
will have charge of one OF tn
branches of management. Other
want to put 1t all in the hands of som
broad man and let him manage tn
whole thing. These questions will frs
have to be settled before we are read.
to select successor to Mr.. Meyer.
"You may say positively that no maj
has as yet been agreed upon. You ma
also deny specifically that the Januar
interest on the bonds Of the compan
will be passed; that a receivershiI
either friendly or otherwise, is cor
templated, that the Baltimsre & Obi
and Southern railway system are I
be consolidated. You may also den
in the most positive terms the state
ment that there has been any irregt
larity in the management OF keepin
the books Of the company"
