BREAKING THE POOL.
The Combination Which Froze Mr..
Ryan Out.
The Washington Star says:

iiS W tSuluSbOu cUtI SdlS'
An effort to break the famous pool by
which Thomas +. Ryan was prevented
from getting control OF the Seaboard Air
Line Company is. it is ted, to he made
in the near future, probably to-day or to-.
morrow.
The Stars authority..for this statement
is n gentleman who is -interested in the
pool, and who last night informed II Star
reporter in Baltimore that it had been
ascertained that II number of those who
signed the agreement to give, the pool
absolute control of their stock for five
years, so far rs making II sale was con-
cerned, overlooked the fact.'that.the agree
;nent contained II clause that they were
powerless to dispose of their holdings cX.
cept by securing the consent of three.
fourths of the members cf the pool, and
some OF them assert that they fully eN-
pccted Il sale OF their shares To take place
when the price reached 1925 II share,
which was the figure offered by Mr.. Ryan.
In order to secure the relief which these
people believe it is in The power of the
court TO grant, Il suit will, it is said be
instituted in one of the courts at Balti.
more, probably the United States court,
TO dissolve the pool and good lawyers
say there is no DOUBT of the final result,
which they say will be in favor OF those
who are the plaintiffs in the case.
The suit will not, it is understood, be
brought i'll the name of Thomas +. Ryan,
but it is pretty well understood that the
plan has the hearty sympathy of some of
Mr.. Ryan's friends, and that they fully
expect to see Mr.. Ryan in control OF the
Seaboard Air Line Company in the course
OF the next few months.
y Star reporter called last evening. at
/ the residence OF Il :. Curzon Hoffman,
president of the Seaboard company, in
Baltimore, and in an interview with that
gentleman inquired for further partic..
ulars regarding the rumorcd suitas above
stated.
Mr.. Hoffman assured the reporter that
he had heard nothing of the matter, and
declared that he knew nothing whatever
rs to the intentions of the members OF
the pool rs to their movcments in the flu
ture. As Judge Watts, the manager
since Moncure Rohinson's death, was at
his home in Portsmouth, Va, it was i'm
possible to discover what the pool intends
TO do when the case is filed in court, but
it is safe to assume that they will not
reccdc from their present position with
out Il legal fight.

Sale Takes the Town by Storm.

j. j. O'Brien & Co.'s Great Lilo uid alton
Sale Takes the Town by Storm.
To say that it totally eclipses any of the
many wonderful sales ever held by this
great firm gives but slight idea OF the
tremendous outpouring of femininity that
greeted the great liquidation sale inaugu-
rated yesterday to settle the estate of the
late J. J. O'Brien, for from almost the
moment of opening in the morning until
the store closed at night it was literally
packed with buyers, and at times the
crowd was so great it was impossible 10
make any headway through the surging
mass of humanity that packed the broad
aisles of this mammoth establishment.
But notwithstanding the crowds every
body SCENE ed good natured, for they could
easily afford to put up with a little per-
sonal discomfort in view OF the ex.raordi-
nary opportunities afforded by the un-
sparing cuts in prices that have been
m ade on every article in every department.
In a few moments conversat on with
Mr.. James O. B rien, the surviving partner,
it was learned that an extra force of a bout
ffty had been added to the firms enor-
nous regular corps OF sales people, but
even with these it was impossible to
handle the overwhelming trade as expe-
ditousIy as desired, consequently forty
more have been engaged and will be on
duty this morning ready 10 serve The
thousands that will undou btedly turn out
when they learn from those OF their friend S
who attended the opening day Of the mar
yelous bargains offered.

school chidren's day at the fair. over
1900 tickets we're issued by the committee,
and thew were all used. At least $500 peo-
pie were present at the afternoon concert.
The big electric blower was kept going
all dav, but it was i'm possible TO keen the
temperature of the pavilion down to the
comfortable point
Fruit, butter and cereals have been
coming in all day. The annex to the pa
vilion, used for the agricultural display,
is filled to overhowing with the products
from orchard and farm. The pyramid OF
fruit is now completed. 1t was con-
st1ucted under the direction of Decorator
Mede and is a splendid piece of work.
The booths all radiate from the massive
pile of fruit and lend to the floor arran ge-
ment an orderly appearance, absent from
last years exposition. The women's de-
partment and the art display are consid-
cred superior TO tn ose of last year. With
Maria Martinette's celebrated picture,
Marguerite and Mephisto." for a center
piece, the art exhibit makes very at
tractive showing.
The band concert this evening drew out
the largest crowd present since the fair
began. Tomorrow racing begins at South
Park and the veri,cope exhibition of the
Corhett- -FiiZsimmons fight opens in the
pavilion annex in the evening. The Scan
dinavians will hold sway at tie fair to-
morrow. 1t is expected that the tug-of.

gramme.

an Attack Upon His Superior
Officer

MODESTO, CAL, Sept. 6-The court
marraling of Private Mark I. Andrews
OF Company D, n. G. c., of this city, took
place Saturday. Major R. K. Whitmore
acted as judge advocate. The evidence
showed that Andrews threw a plate of
soup, which missed its aim, and struck
Captain D. ". Morris of the company in
the back at the late encampment at
Santa Cruz. Since the encampment
Andrews has been a prisoner in the
armory in this city, under guard. The
court-martial was ordered by Colonel S. S.
Wright OF the Sixth Regiment.
charge of using vulgar and obscene
language to superior officer was also
preferred against Andrews. The offenses
were com mitted because the captain with
