TO DOUBLE THE CAPITAL,
The Standard Oil Trust to Be Re-
organized as a Corpo-
ration.
Plenty of Watered Stock Will Be at
the. Disposal of the General
Public.

PlTISBU RG, Pa, Jan. 31.-The Leader
this evening says: The Standard Oil Com
pany Is about to reorganize as corpora
ton and go out of the trust business. The
capital OF the new company is to be $780,
OoO,OOO, Just twice the capitalization of the
original trust, and so much of the watered
stock the retention of which is not desired
by those on the inside will be open COR
purchase by the general public and at
prices as high as the Standard brokers can
put them. The purchase of outstanding
certificates of the Standard, there having
been an advance of $35 share within a
month, is being carried on, it is claimed,
to facilitate the plans of the new organiza-
ton and to help make high market price
Tor the new shares.
Adopting the usual methods of reorgani-
cation, the present stockholders would
probably get two shares for one in the
new company, hence the desire to corral
all that can possibly be obtained of the
present certificates. The par value of the
present stock is 500 share. upon which
dividends OF IL per cent have been paid,
which means an annual distribution OF
the enormous sum OF $12, 100000.
Independent of desire to secure con-
tinuanee Of the enormous profits of the
Standard, and, businesslike, to increase
them, If possible, it is supposed that the
activity of the independent organiza tons
has emphasized the necessity for closer
knitting together of all the Standard in
terests

The State Department Expects That TaIle1
W5It Be released.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. Sit is
understood that the State Department is
only delaying its transmission to Congress
of the documents in the case of ex-United
States Consul Waller of Madagascar, now
imprisoned in France, pending negoti-
atoms still proceeding, by which it hopes
to be able to announce the release OF
Waller from prison.
Developments are daily expected in the
negotiations, and probably, unless Waller
release is shortly secured, the correspond
ence will go to the House of Representa-
tives. The objection to that course is said
to be desire that the friendly relations so
long subslsting between the United States
and the French republic should not be
even temporarily interrupted.

A JUNE WEDDING.
Mr.. Fred Mcbride and Miss Rose
CrichtOn Married This " Orning.

A happy wedding was that which oc-
Cured this morning at the residence of
Mr.. and Mrs. +. p Crichton, by which
Miss Rose H. Crichton and Mr.. Fred II.
Mcbride were united in holy matrimony.
The home of the BRIDES parents was
tastily decorated with evergreens and cut
flowers and back of the improvised altar
at which the contracting parties pledged
their troth was an exquisite stand of
peonies that lent refreshing variety to
the beauty of the green decorations.
Promptly at 10 O'Clock the ceremony oc-
Cured, the bride entering on the arm of
her father and being met at the altar, by
the groom and Rev. R. M. Craig, the
pastor of the First Presbyterian church,
who officiated. The solemn words which
made the contracting parties man and
wife were soon said and congratulations
we're numerously and heartily extended
by the friends who were present. At the
conclusion of the congratulations the
party repaired to the dining room where
rich refreshments daintily served we're
en- njoyed by the guests, toasts to the happy
couple and their parents being responded
to in befitting manner by Mr.. Geo. w.
Knaebel, Mr.. M. W. Berger and others.
After pleasant hour spent in formal
and informal expressions of cordial
wishes for the happy future of the young
couple, they we're driven amid shower
of old shoes, rice and benedictions to the
Denver q Rio Grande depot whence they
departed for Denver where they will
spend week or SO. The brides dress
was most becoming one of white China
silk trimmed with cheffon and her going
away gown was of green broadcloth with
hat to match. The popularity of the
young couple was attested by number
of beautiful and substantial presents,
consisting of China ware, silver and
other very useful articles. The bride is
the only daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. r. P.
Crichton, who have been for several
years such highly respected residents of
Santa Fe. She came to Santa Fe just a
year ago from Bristol, Pa, and has even
in that short time won many warm
friends by her sweet and womanly dis
position no less than by her many charms
of mind and person. Mr.. Mcbride, the
groom, is a son of Mr.. Samuel Mcbride,
of Espanola, and is the local agent of
the Denver d Rio Grande railroad here.
He is a young man of splendid business
and mental attainments and enjoys to a
high degree the confidence of this COM
munity. The guests of the wedding we're

Those Fraudulent Bonds.

Congressman Lacey, of Iowa, who,
with Congressman Owens, of Kentucky,
chiefly aided and abetted Delegate Cat
ron in working through the house the bill
to saddle over $5OO,O0O of a fraudulent
debt on Santa Fe and Grant counties
the Brice-Coler bonds-places Mr.. Catron
on record as follows iu the Congression
Record of June /:
1.-THE delegate from New Mexico Mr..
Catron asks that the bonds be validated
and left unquestioned by an act of con.
gress. 1t Is true that in the Lewis case
from Arizona decision was rendered
some years afterwards, which practically
would affect the validity of these bonds.
Whether it would do 40 as to bonds that
had been once merged in judgment and
that were subsequently reissued in the
form of refunding bonds is a question
that is not entirely clear; but the terri
tory of New Mexico prefers, through it's
delegate in congress-and he sends a
written communication to that effect
that no question be raised against them.
*~* If he is perpetreting fraud upon
his constituents in asking us to validate
these bonds, his constituents will notify
him of that fact next November. He
takes his political life in his hand when
he asks ms to validate these bonds"
