Plan of Bankers to Buy the Union Pacific

New YORK, Jan. 92.-The plan of the
syndicate of bankers recently formed
in this city to purchase the govern
ment interests in the Union Pacific
met unexpected opposition Thursday
from Russell Sage and the Union and
United States Trust companies, who
declare themselves unalterably OPP
posed to any plan which contemplates
the elimination of the government in
terests in the property. Mr.. Sage,
after long conference at the Mercan-
tile Trust Co., said that he considered
the interest of the government in the
road the most valuable asset, and that
the same should be retained.
Mr.. Sage owns about 100000 worth
of Union Pacific securities; George
Gould represents some $SOO,OOo worth,
and the two trust companies control
about So, 600, 900. AS ]. Pierpont Nor

HAS MADE HER LAST VOYAGE.
Death of Woman Who Had Crossed tn
Atlantic $50 Times In 30 Years.

Death of Woman Who Had Crossed the
Atlantic $50 Times In 30 Years.
CHICAGO, Jan. 25.-Mrs. Elizabeth
N. Carson, a remarkable woman, died
Friday night at Anamosa, la. Mrs.
Carson had crossed the ocean $50 times
and possessed the extraordinary record
of never having missed trip on the
Iucania since that splendid vessel was
launched. For 80 years she has been
travelling across the Atlanic until her
face has become familiar one not only
to the officers Of the vessels of the
Cunard line, but to the custom house
officials on both sides of the Atlantic.
Mrs. Carson was the wife of Samuel
Carson, of Belfast. Her name was
Newell before her marriage and her
brother, w. b. Newell, was million
aire of Nashville, Tenn. Shortly after
the death of her husband in 1854, Mrs
Carson, accompanied by her daughter
Elizabeth, came to America to visit her
brother. This was Mrs Carson's first
ocean trip and was the beginning of
her infatuation for the sea. Mr.. New
ell prevailed upon her to remain in
America and on her death bequeathed
to her S50O,00O. This formed an ample
fund to permit the indulgence of her
desire to be continually on the water.
Since 1866 her entire time has been
spent in her voyages. Mrs. Carson had
the strongest affection for Capt Mckay
and all the officers Of the Lucania, and
remembered them in her will. 1t is
said Mckay was bequeathed S5O,O0e
and the subalterns sums proportionate
to the esteem in which she held them.
Mrs. Carson made her last voyage
across the Atlantic Ave weeks ago. On
the trip from Liverpool she was seized
with an attack of pneumonia and when
the steamer reached New York she
was failing rapidly. She was taken tc
hotel, where she remained two days
when her daughter, MIRA Rohrbach, o.
Anamosa, Ia, 4. rived and took hel
west. Mrs. Carson was "a years old

John r. McLean'S
Great Newspaper.

Without a single exception, there
is beyond doubt no greater or more
popular newspaper in the United
States than the Cincinnati Enquirer
or a more successful publisher than
its proprietor, Mr.. John R. Mclean.
The old-time prices for the Daily
Enquirer have been maintained, and
is circulation largely increased each
year; hard times and cheaper jour
mails failing to arrest its onward march
and high appreciation Of the public
for its true worth and merit.
The Weekly Enquirer at beginning
Of the campaign year was offered at
50 cents year, and its circulation
increased bv the addition of over
200, 900 new subscribers; the most
substantial and coveted testimonial a
publisher could desire.
When asked for the secret of such
success, Mr.. Mclean frankly answers ::
The Enquirer has no opinions to force
upon its patrons, it simply prints the
facts and tells the truth that the reader
may form his own opinions. By
maintaining the price Of the paper,
more news and greater variety can be
furnished, and every class of business
interests catered to, which cheaper
journal cannot afford.
The very liberal support given the
Enquirer by the public at large, makes
it incumbent upon the management
to serve it faithfully with zeal and en-.
terprlSe in minor matters as we'll as
those OF greater magnitude.

Insurgents Capture and Burn a Spanish
GunbOat-A Few Prisoners Released.
KEY WEST, Fla, Jan. 95.-Havana
Rdvices received here are to the effect
that the Spanish gunbOat Cometa has
been captured and burned by the In
surgents. The Cometa was one of the
most powerful of the smaller Spanish
vessels in Cuban waters, and has been
cruising near Cardenas to prevent the
landing of filibustering expeditions.
For some time she has been accustomed
to anchor at night of Sierra Nora, q
favorable place for an attack from the
shore, and the insurgents determined
to capture her.
Last Tuesday night they opened fire
on the vessel with q l2-pound Hotch-
kiss gun. The vessel was struck sew.
eral times and badly damaged. While
the crew were in confusion, boats
loaded with insurgents left the shore
and the Cometa was boarded A des-
perate hand-to-hand fight took place
on the deck of the gunbost, the Cubans
using the machete with deadly effect
Finally, after the Spanish commander
and half his men had been killed, ths
survivors surrendered. The vessel was
then burned.
HAVANA, Jan. SG-6sturday being
the name day of King Alfonso, it was
celebrated here in the usual manner
by services in the cathedral in honor
of the kings patron saint and by social
functions. In accordance with the
custom which obtains on this day, a
number of prisoners were given their
liberty. 1t was thought that number
of the Americans now confined in
Cuban prisons would be released, but
this expectation was disappointed.
There were only IS men set free In this
city and they were only given their
liberty Professionally. Three of them
have been confined In the state prison,
eight in Moro castle and two in the
Cabanas fortress. They were charged
with various offenses and all of them
are comparatively unknown.
