bitches IN THE SCHEME TO UNITE THE
UNIVERSITY AND BELLEVUE HOSPI-
TAI MEDICAL COLLEGES.

Serious bitches have occurred in the scheme 10
consolidate the Bellevue Hospital Medical College
and the Medical College OF the New-York un!ver-
sitv and there is possibility that tho fusion plan
may after all come 10 naught. For long time
there have been endeavors to bring about COM
bination Of the two colleges and the only obstacle
apparently removed about two months ago
when the faculty OF the University Medical College
surrendered its authority TO the council Of the
University which thereby secured the absolute
control of the school Then the plan for the merg-
Ing Of the two colleges under the name of the New
York University Bellevue Hospital Medical College
was agreed upon. and received the consent OF the
regents. The council OF the University was 10

might be in nowise embarrassed in forming iac-
ulty for the newly organized institution both the
old faculties resigned.
Apparently everything worked as smoothly
the promoters OF the consolidation could wish. and
there seemed little prospect of any differences
curing But dissatsfactions have arisen that are
likely to irperil the completion Of the proposed
union. For the moment the greatest reluctance Is
observed by every concerned 10 discuss the

Bryan in accordance with the returns.
At 1 40 p. m. the Vice President stated
that the count had closed and directed
the tellers to announce the result. There

the measure.
Mr. Morgan declared that British in
terference was continually at work to
prevent American control of the canal.
He had positive and detailed information
supporting this declaration.
''It is of such a character" said Mr..
Morgan, THAT | am compelled to present
this information to the Senate in execu-
tive session. 1t will disclose that up to
this hour British Intervention has been
conspiring to prevent the consummation
of this canal project under American
control"
Unless, he said, all the manhood of tine
United States has been taken out of us

would be serious results from the aban-

Senate was now invited. The discussion
continued until 500 when the Senate
