DEAL INVOLVING S5,OOO,0OO.
Combination of the Fishing Indus
tries of This Country and Canada.

CHICAGO. Dec. 31.-Edwin Corbin, of
Chicago, has consummated a combination
of the twenty corporations controlling the
fresh-water fisheries of the great lakes of
the United States and Canada. The deaf
was consummated at a secret conference
held in this city last week, the contracts
passing through the Office of the British
consulate to-day. The entire amalgamation

Minneapolis, Duluth, Kansas City, st. Louis
and Denver, and freezing plants at the fish
ing stations throughout the chain of lakes

The parties interested deny that the COM
bination will operate in any sense as a
trust and maintain that it will result in
great benefit to the government and the
consumers inaSmuch as the former Will be
saved hundreds of thousands of dollars an
nuaIly spent in replenishing and preserving
the fisheries, and the later by maintaining
a reasonable price at all seasons of the
year. Mr. Corbin left tonight for New
but would not discuss the combination in
any manner. 1t is understood that he has
engineered the deal personally, but he would
not admit this much to the papers. He is

WASHINGTON, Dec 31.-Leaders Of the
free-silver wing of the Democratic party
have read the riot act to Boss Croker,
who recently made overtures to them in
behalf of himself, Governor Flower, ex-
Secretary Whitney and others The free
silvertes were besought to nominate man
of moderate views on the financial question
chairman OF the congressional campaign
committee at the meeting of that committee
to be held in Washington within a few
days, and to take further action in a spirit
of conciliation towards the sound-money
Eastern Democracy. In consideration of
such proceeding Mr.. Croker gave bond to
exert himself to reunite the wings of the
party in the East and so shape matters
that in 1900 the Eastern Democrats would
deliver sixty-three electoral votes from the
States of New York, New Jersey, Maryland
Delaware and West Virginia. To these
overtures reply was made that the next
chairman of the congressional committee
would be man of uncompromising adher-
ence to the 16-to-1 idea and to everything
else declared for in the Chicago platform
1t was then and there announced that the
coming chairman would be Congressman
Buck" Heinrichsen, of Illinois, who is a
warm personal friend or William Jennings
Bryan, or some other man of equally radi-
cal views on the money question. Mr..
Croker's emissares were left in no doubt
about what would be done. They were told
fatty that their mission was a fruitless
one, and that the only terms under which
the Eastern Democracy could find favor
with the regular organization would be
by unconditional surrender They were told
further that it had been fully determined
to throw the whole weight of the national
organization for free silver, and to continue
the policy of committing the party to that
programme during the coming campaign Of
1898 wherever a. majority could be obtained.
The New York missionaries, who spent
several days in Washington, returned home
discouraged and fully convinced that the
free-silverites were bent on committing pO-
ltIcai suicide They see no hope for ma
tional success two years hence, and are
about ready to abandon all efforts to secure
unity of action between the Democracy Of
the East and that of the West and South
This story of Democratic Generalization,
with the assurance it carries with it of a
continuation of the split of last year. was

from the Senatorial Contest.
BALTIMORE, Dec. Ex-Governor Lowndes
has withdrawn from the senatorial contest.
Speaking of the senatorial situation, and
his position in regard to it, the Governor
said: This conclusion 1 have reached after
carefully considering the circumstances sur
rounding my nomination by the Republican
party for tie office 1 mold and the circum-
stances under which \ was elected to that
office. 1 shall not attempt to conceal the
fact that I have an ambition to represent
my State In the Senate of the United States,
and have so publicly expressed myself.
But / wish it distinctly understood that it
never my intention, as has been in
sinuated, to use my office as Governor of
this State in the manner which has been at
tributed to me. I believe that if l desired to
use the patronage of my office to make my
self senator from Maryland it could be done.
| think those who know me feel that rather
than crafty any desire l may have had to
be senator from Maryland by the prostitu-
ton of the office l hold for my own per-
sonal advancement would resign it to-mor-
and never again enter public life"
Governor LOwndeS was asked what his
ideas were regarding the senatorial race,
and what would be the effect of his with
drawal. He said Judge McCollas has a
strong following. He is eminently qualified
to represent Maryland in the Senate of the
United States"

Former Makers of Butterine Embark
in Eggs and Poultry Business.

CHICAGO, Dec. 31-Packers who manu-
factured butterine as a side line are now
in the butter-and-egg business on a big
scale. This is because the law prohibiting
the coloring of butterine struck fatal blow
to that business and caused stock-yards
men to shut down their plants. Butter
merchants think the stock-yards men have
started out on a campaign of retaliation
for the enactment of the law which is gem
orally credited to the country legislator and
the butter merchant The packers are ad-

partment in produce journals. and empha-
