Reorganizing p. & R. Companies.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov 6.-Import-
ant steps in connection with the plan
to rehabilitate the Philadelphia &
Reading Railroad and Coal and Iron
companies were taken this afternoon
at special meeting of the stockhold-
ers of the National Coal company, at
which it developed that this corpora
ton is to act as the parent company of
the reorganized Reading properties.
The conference was called for the pur-
pose of increasing the capital stock of
the National company to $40, 000, 600 and
the proposition was ratified without
a dissenting vote. 1t is understood
that the National company is to pur-
chase the controlling interests in both
the railroad and coal companies and
operate the properties under the name
of the Philadelphia & Reading Rail-
road company.
This does not mean that there will
be any change in the executive man.
agement of the Reading company
1t was stated this afternoon that the
Reading receivers will turn over the
property to the reorganization COM
pany on Nov. 80.

Both These Battle Ships Will He Built
Without SpOnsOns.

There will tie no Sponsors on the battle
ships Kearsarge and Kentucky, and their
sides Will be clean and unobstructed
as those of a merchant steamship. Spon-
sons were supposed TO be a necessity TO
a warship in order to secure a wide arc of
fire ard room for the operation of the
mechanism of the modern breech-loading
rife. They formed a superstructure at the
side of the vessel and were not only eX-
pensive, but were held by some critics to
detract from the trim appearance of the
craft.
To Naval Constructor Dashiell is given
the credit Of devising 4 plan which obvi-
ates the use of Sponsors without in the
least detractlng from the battery power
of the ships. By his method the from tace
of the gun carriage is reduced and is
placed flush with the side of the snip. The
whole Piece is square in front and rounded
in the rear. The gun works on d pivot
near the opening in the hull, and mas as
great az arc as ii had before under the
sponsor system. The plan las been APP
proved by the naval authorities and viii
be first introduced on the two new battle
ships. 1t is said that warships hereafter
authorized will be built without Sponsors.

IMMIGRATION REFORM.
Advocates Hopeful of an Agreement
the Mccall Bill.

The advocates of immigration restrictions
are hopeful of reaching an agreement
which will let them out of the tangle they
are in between the Stone and the Mccall
bills. The politicians are afraid OF the
Stone bill on account of the offense it might
give to the German voters. They would be
willing to take up the Mccall bill, which
fixes an educational qualification, but they
are afraid that if the subject is considered
the more stringent measure might prevail.
To obviate this danger, an effort Is being
made to reach an agreement to consider
only the Mccall bill at this time. The lead
ing A. P. a. people, who most active
in the fight for immigration reform, say
that while they would not he satisfied with
the Mccall BILL they are willing to accept
1t as a step in the right direction, and
would let the matter rest there for a while.

ALABAMA FOR FREE SILVER.
Congressman Harrison Outlines the
PrObnb BILE Course Of Events.

Representative Harrison, sound money
democrat from Alabama, has returned here
from trip to his state to take a hand
in the financial fight, which was settled last
Saturday
Talking to Star reporter, he said that
the outlook was that Johnson, free silverite,
had won for governor.
What is there in the statement that the
state convention will adopt sound money
PLATFORM"
MY impression is that the statement is
not true. The silver men are so hot that
they will adopt free silver platform and
EJECT free silver delegates to the Chicago
convention. l assume that every Johnson
delegate is for silver, and will so vote"
General Harrison said that in all pre-
vious state conventions the districts had
been allowed to pick their own delegates
but he didn't know what would be done
this time. He rather thought the silver
men would pick all the delegates or instruct
the delegation to vote as a unit.
The state convention will be held on the
Dist OF this month

AMERICAN FLOUR TAXED,
Alleged DiscrinifEa ton Against 1t by
London Dock Companies.

London DOCK Companies.
Charles c. Bovey and John Crosby of
Minneapolis, representing the National
Millers' Association, are in New York
They say flour inspectors of London
are greatly exercised over what they
hold Is be discrimination against Amer
lean flour. Flour from America enters
London docks, and is subjected to a land
ing charge of IS cents per ton. French
flour and American wheat escape this
charge. Parliament has enacted that no
charge whatsoever shall be made on goods
landing at these docks, but the steamship
companies, it is stated, issued to American
millers bill of lading, containing a clause
subjecting flour to the 1S-cents charge per
ton. Furthermore the dock companies, it
is stated, propose now to increase the tax
of landing materially.
With these facts in view, Messrs. Bovey
and Crosby have been in Washington
where they have represented to a subcom-
mittee of the. House ways and means COM
mittee that the American -four as product
is subjected to charges in contravention OF
English law, and which they have urged
may BE- abated through retaliatory legisla-
ton here.

In conclusion, Mr.. Hill went into The mat
ter of the now famous sugar trust investi-
cation instituted by the Senate and he
caused some laughter by his humorous de-
scription of the proceedings of the commit
tee having the charges in hand. He said:
The investigation went on. / am not
now going TO speak of it in its detailed re-
suits except to say, put it all together
what did 1t amount to? All the Senators
trailed upstairs to the committee room
inundated that they had felt obliged 10 go
out of respect to the committee, and every
one of them was put through a lot of
questions as to what he had done with his
money, in substance, whether he had specu-
lated In sugar stocks or not whether he
had bought any stocks for himself, his Sis
tiers, his cousins, and his aun.s. And under
| oath, too. oh. they would not take SEN
ators word for anything. Wha; was the
result? The sum and substance of il was
that they found that one Senator-and 1
would not speak of it at this time except
justice to the cause requires me 10 do it
one Senator, whose frankness We all adj
mire, went before the Senate committee
and said: Yes; / did buy some sugar stock
and afterward sold it, and L would 90 il
| again; had right to do it; and what are
you going to do about it?' He acted Ike
manly man, and l take pleasure iE say
ing SO, notwithstanding all the charges
| made about the great impropriety of specu-
lating in sugar stock. Today that dis
tingushed Senator is the candidate the
favorite son, of the leading republican
state in this Union for the presidency He
has earnest and warm friends as any
man who is now a candidate for the presi-
dency.
The other was the case of a Senator's
hired girl who had been Specializing in
sugar stock, and another Senator's son,
nineteen years old, had bought ten or TWEEN
ty dollars worth of stock in 4 bucket shop
That was the result Of the investigat ton
One Senator bought a little stock, and said
he had; another Senator's hired girl had
specuiated in i'll think the Senator ought
at least perhaps to have divided with the
hired girl-another was the soE OF Sens-
tor who had speculated in the stock. AMI
that is all there was of ii. Every Senator
here, eghty-odd of us, went before that
committee, all under oath, and sworc that
they were not scoundrels, as IL specializing
| in sugar stock was something terrible

Spain Has Been Mistaken.


Spain has been mistaken in her ideas of
the Cubans. Her army was given free lee

heart of the patriotic islander and make
him forsake the cause of liberty to save

has counted wrongly. The Cuban has
buckled on his armor more tightly. He
sees the oppressor turned into a human
