THE Widest SPECULATION
John A. Mccall ON the scenes that
Characterize Mining Speculation
i'm the London Market.

New York, Oct. ,l4.-Among the passen-
gers on the st. Louis was John A. Mccall,
president of the New York Insurance
com pany. He said: "The mad rush for
shares in the South African mines by
London investors was the most astonish-
ing thing in the way of speculation I ever
saw. There seemed very little effort on
the part of iL vestors to make inquiries
about what they are buying.
Everybody was buying the so-called
King OF Kaffirs.' Barney Barnato, once,
believe circus performer, announced
in London the opening of a new mine in
the Transvaal called The Coffin It was,
believe, about seven feet long and four
feet deep. No one in London knew any
thing about the mine but the shares in no
time commanded fabulous premium.
"Of course, this is merely public spec
ulation and IL is only matter of time
when the bubble will burst. When the
reaction sets in, IL will be, in my opinion,
in favor of American securities. Finances
in London are already beginning to turn
! from Africn to America"

GOULDS And VANDERBILTS.
Important Disclosures in Connection
with Proposed Reorganization of
ss the Union Pacific.
PROPOSED TO DISMEMBER The SYSTEM
Vanderbilts to Take Main Line and
Goulds the Old Kansas Pacific
The Former Are Also
Negotiating for Central
Pacific.

Chicago, Oct. 14.-The Tribune says to.
day: The plan for the reorganization Of
the Union Pacific is now in course of
preparation, and the preliminary steps
already taken indicate beyond doubt
that when the Union Pacific gets out OF
the hands of receivers it will be controlled
and operated by the Chicago & North
western company as one of the Wander
bilt roads.
deal is said to have been made be-
tween George Gould and the Vanderbilts,
whereby the former is to be given control
of the Kansas Pacific, which is to be op-
Grated by the Missouri Pacific, while the
latter will take the main line of the Union
Pacific from Omaha west and make it a
part of the Chicago & Northwestern sys-
tenn.
The most startling rumor which has
lately gained currency is that the Wander
bilts look still further than acq quiring the
Union Pacific and the Oregon Short
Line.
Their great aim and object is said to
be the control of line through to San
Francisco and to gain this end it is said
that they are now negotiating with G. P.
Huntington with a view to getting con-
troll of the Central Pacific branch of the
Southern Pacific.
New York.-A meeting of the organiza-
tion committee of the Union Pacific com
pany will be held in this city to-day. A
member of firm included in the under
writing syndicate says that he does not
believe the reorganization plan will be
ready for publication to-day. Gen. Louis
Fitzgerald, chairman of the reorganiz J.
tion committee, confirms this statement

SUBJECT OF CHURCH UNITY.
Episcopal House of Deputies at Min
neapolis Considers Questions of
Moment to Churchmen.
SHALL The MISSIONS BE- REPRESENTED?
Gov. Prince, of New Mexico, Strongly
Favors Giving Missionary Juris-
dictions Representation in The
House of Deputies-Prince
Wins His Point.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Oct. 14.-The sub
ject of church unity came to the front
almost at the opening of the session of
the Episcopal house of deputies to-day.
report was presented by a majority
of the committee on amendments to the
constitution presenting an amendment
empowering bishop to recognize con-
gregations outside the Episcopal church
and take them under his special care,
provided such congregation subscribe to
the Episcopal creed, in which case it
need not necessarily be confirmed.
A minority report signed by six men,
bers of the comittee was presented by
Rev. J. j. Faude, of Minneapolis.
The minority report opposed the amend
ment because it touched the book of COM
mon prayer, gave bishops the right to
| set aside the customs and canons of their
church, even gave bishop power to cele-
brate mass if congregation desired with
out confirmation, and would thus ALLEVIATE
many from the church and had no COM
pensating advantages.
In the mind of the minority the amend
ment, instead of being step toward
church unity was really in the direction
Of aggregation and not spiritual unity.
The report called attention to the fact
that there had been absolutely 10 re-
sponse to the advances made by the
church toward unity in the Chicago Lam
beth declaration and that this move was
premature and they contended that even
if it passed few congregations would
avail themselves of the privilege.
In the Episcopalian house of deputies
to-day the constitutional revision COM
mittee submitted its final report with the
exception of the canon on marriage and
divorce, which was promised tomorrow.
The report is substantially the same as
that already printed, the changes being
minor verbal ones.
Sectiontion of article was taken up.
This precipitated debate over represen-
tation Of the missionary jurisdictions in
the house.
Gov. Prince, of New Mexico, made a
strong speech in favor of giving the mis-
sionary Jurisdiction representatives all
the privileges of all other delegates save
that of voting. He declared that the BAG
clergymen and $4,000 communicates in
the missionary juriedictions had right
to be heard.
Gov. Prince won his point by practi-
cally unanimous vote.
In the house of bishops, Bishop Gar
rett, OF northern Texas, presented a
memorial asking that the missionary
jurisdiction of northern Texas be erect
ed into diocese.

Helping the Producers.

Topeka, Kas., Oct. 14.-Through the
efforts of the state board of railroad com
missioners the railroads running through
Kansas have established an emergency
rate on fruits and potatoes of 23 cents
per 100 from all points in the state to
common points in Colorado. The for.
mer rate was SO cents. The Santa Re

Missouri river to Colorado points, and
upon the recommendation of the board

to Kansas fruit and potato growers, who
could not have made anything out of
their crops had they been compelled to
pay the old rate.
