REORGANIZATION IL Delayed.

While plans have been under way for
some time for the reorganization Of the
Denver and Gulf railroad, information re-
ceived from Receiver Trumbull. who is now
in New York, tends to the belief that Il
change will be impossible before next De-
cemher or January Several of the mem
bers of the reorganization committee are
anxious to take the road from the hands OF
the court as quickly as possible. but there
are several obstacles which will. In all
probability, delay the move another year.

THE TENTH DISTRICT.
MIR. LovEJoy ASKED no mn ,
CANDIDATE.
sara Tint He Would Receive the
support OF Both Regular and
Gold Democrats.

Galveston. Texas, February e7.-Not
w'thstanding the announcement some time
ago that Mr.. John I.oyejoy would not be a
sahaiaate Tor congress from the Tenth
district, there are indications now that
| point strongly to the suspicion that he
may yet be induced 10 enter the race.
quite recently Mr.. Lovejoy has been APP
preached from a source that renders 1t
certain that he could secure the nomina-
ton and have the support of all classes
OF democrats throughout the district.
Gold standard democrats, of whom there
are many here, do not hesitate to sly
that they will not vote with the republicans
any longer. The reason they give is that
the administration has done absolutely
nothing to establish the supremacy OF the
gold standard, having confined itself ex-
ciusively to tariff tinkerng, They are
not in love with a protective tarih, and
seeing no immediate chance for a discus
SION OF the money question, these yellow
metal democrats are going to return to the
ranks of organized democracy and support
the regular nominees of the party.
1t is conceded that Congressman Hawley
Will be candidate to succeed himself.
He has made "A good record and there
is not republican in the entire district
who could beat him out of the nominal on.
To defeat Hawley will require the strong
est man the democrats can put up. II is
with knowledge OF this fact that has
induced prominent party workers both IN
Galveston county and out Of II. to core
to Mr.. Lovejoy recently with proffers of
united support and a clear field if he VIII
consent to make the race. The prospect
of political preferment is tempting 10 most
men, and 1t is likely that at the proper
time Mr.. Lovejoy will waive the quest on
of business considerations and make
formal announcement Of his candidacy.

PLUCKY MRS. PAGET.
An Incident Revealing the Heroic
Blood of the Whitneys.

Blood of the Whitneys.
New York, March 29.-The cool head
and prompt, steady nerve of Mrs. Al
merle Hugh Paget, daughter of eX-Sec-
rotary of the Navy William G.. Whit
ney, were called into action last even
ing They doubtless saved her life.
She was the only occupant of an open
carriage in a thrilling runaway in
which a footman was seriously injured.
Mrs. Paget was being driven in an
open victoria drawn by two chestnut
horses. The horses were going at a
lively pace up Fifth avenue when they
started to run. The coachman, Patrick
Cockbourne. pulled the reins, but be-
fore he grasped the situation the horses
were thoroughly frightened.
Crazed with terror they snatched the
reins from the coachman's hands and
tore up the avenue, while horror
stricken crowds gathered along the
walks, expecting disaster at every cor
ner.
Mrs. Paget, while grasping the sides
of the victoria evidently realized that
her life depended largely upon her per-
sonal efforts to bring the horses to a
stop. She got up and. leaning forward
grasped the coachman's seat. Then she
quietly told COckbourne to let her help
at the reins. Cockbourne bending for
ward let the slack of the reins drag
and Mrs. Paget grasping it, threw her
full length backward to hold the horses.
Just beyond Third avenue the victoria
struck ? truck and turned almost over.
Mrs. Paget half fell, but pluckily held
her grip on the reins. At Second ave-
nue. the united strength of Mrs. Paget
and the coachman checked the horses.
and by The help of a policeman they
were stopped. Mrs. Paget. pale but cool
and self possessed, alighted from the
victoria as easily as If returning from
pleasant afternoons ride.
