Milwaukee, Sept. 19-Philip d. Ar

annual meeting of the directors OF the
chicago Milwaukee and st. Paul Rail-
wav company, practically confirmed the
renorts that he in company with j. j.
Hill. Marshal Field and Norman b.
Ream has secured a controlling interest
in the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. Mr.
Armour said:
1T dislike to say anything on this
matter now. 1t is very delicate, as you
must understand. There is, however,
some foundation for the report sent out
from Chicago
"EIow about the reference made to the
f>bicapo and Great Western and the
wisconsin Central as uniting roads be-
tween the Baltimore and ONO ana
Great Northern" he was asked.
"positively no consideration has been
,r;,en tn either road yet. I cannot say
ybat will occur in the future, but no
daaI Is ON at present concerning these
companies"
"shall you be made Director
ono mo-" Mr.. Armour returned. Il
don't expect that either Mr.. Field or
vii, he placed on the board. Mr. Ream
viii he an executive man in some ca
nacitv and Mr.. Hill will be made
,,en,her of the executive board. Fur
ther than this can say nothing.

also certain that the st. Paul Is IN no

President HIS Statement.

st. Paul. Sept. l9.-President j. J..
Hill of the Great Northern railroad
made this statement to your represen-
tative regarding the Baltimore and
Ohio reorganization story:
"Any connection may have with the
Baltimore and Ohio is simply for the
purpose of putting that road on its feet
and making it what it was at one time
one of the most important roads in
the country. Recently it has failed to
such an extent that 1t was an incu-
bus. Any connection l may have with
regard to the Baltimore and Ohio has
no connection with the Great Northern
Neither has the Great Northern or my
self any connection with any railroad
between ST. Paul and Chicago and, fur
thermo.e, neither do I expect to have
any such connection. Some one who is
responsible for statements to the con-
trary has an imagination that is alto
gether too vivid"
Further than this Mr.. Hill had moth
ing to say regarding the matter.

MISREPRESENTATION Interests
Are to De Consulted.

CINCINNATI, Sept 19.-Mr, E. r. Bacon
president of the Baltimore and Ohio
southwestern Railway company. who
mas been engaged for some time with
the new York committee, Sheyer & Co.
ana huhn' Loeb & Co., bankers, and the
receivers in assisting the readjustment
or the affairs of the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad company, was in town and
was interviewed about the purchase of
the control of the Baltimore and Ohio
road. He was reluctant to discuss the
matter, but after being advised that It
mad been published in Chicago. New
YORK and this city he pld a number of
represe NATIVE men identified with large
railway, manufactur. and commercial
interests in the northwest, Chicago.
New York and other cities on the COM
pany's line had been for some time ne
gotiating for the purchase of a more
substantial interest In the Baltimore
and Ohio road and that such negotia-
tons had been brought to a successful
conclusion; that under the reorganiza-
ton ample means had been provided for
cutting down gr.,des, incrt asing capaci-
ty and facilities of the road and putting
1t in condition to promptly and eco
nomically handle largely increased bust
ness; that the reorganization managers
had also decided that the subsidiary
lines, including the Baltimore and Ohio
southwestern, should be likewise treated
anu arrangements were now being con-
cluded to readjust the affairs of such
lines and secure capital to put them in
the same condition as the main line
The Purchase Price.
Mr.. Eacon was very reticent, but it is
evident that the control has been pur-
chased, and from what has been learned
here and through other sources it is
certain that a much larger sum than
$4,000, 900 has been paid for it and that
the reorganization managers and him.
self are the parties who have made the
negotiations.
Receivers Cowen and Murray, Presi-
dent Bacon, Vice President Peabody
and Others all Joined in announcing that
there was nothing whatever to give
out. Receiver Murray and General Man
ager Green VIII leave Immediately for
tour of inspection over the trans
Ohio division of the Baltimore and Ohio
system. President Bacon Receiver
Cowen and others will go east, and
President Bacon will shortly after
reaching New York sail for Europe.
To Consult British Stockholders.
1t is currently reported that the trip
of President Bacon to London is for the
purpose of comforting with English in
terests in the proposed reorganization
of this trunk line. The fact that none
of the officials would deny the story
about the recent &C nfe' ence in Chicago
with Hill, Ream, Ar:nour Field and
others has given credence in railway
circles here to the TT that something
very important was done at the Chicago
conferences, but there Is every indica-
ton that the confe ences here were
only with a view to completing the es-
Inmates for the propos d improvements
of the Baltimore and Ohio Southwestern
system.

IT requires only q very few CONVEX
sstions with people on the cars TO dis
cover what are the most salient faults,
or drawbacks, In our municipal char
acter. In talking with men from diff
ferent sections, generally appropriated
observers, we have gained anew with
great distinctuess the idea which is
strongly present in the minds of near
ly everyone here-that there is o
deplorable lack of community OF in
terests, OF pub ic spirit, of disintere st.
cd desire for the general good, among
our citizens. II Is an unpleasant topic
to force to our notice. II Is one sure TO
less that must be hsrped on II we wish
70 take our place among the larger
cities of this magnificent western coun-
try, Ia the front rank, where we belong.
Outsiders always ask, sooner or later,
"why don't you people get toReth' r
and do something?" The remedy (, r
the present state of affairs is easy to
state, but will we all fud it easy to
practice? 1t is, let politics be politics /;
let business be business. For political
purposes let us be sharply divided, if
need be (aud need there certainly Is
Just now), but for advancing the in
mediate material interests of our city,
let US all be, first, citizens of FL Paso,
and let us work together for the good
of all, or, more exactly, for the good of

mine eighty men were added to the

greater activity in mining than ever

EVERY little town and city, with
very few exceptions, between here and
abe east, has electric street cars IL is
more aud more patent to any casual
observer that the presence and tolera-
tiou In FL Paso OF the wretched little
mule cars are responsible above almost
any other cause for the delay to the
realization OF our we'll founded hopes in
the great future of the city. On the
trains people are asking about FL Psso,
/ - hotels, its transportation facilities,
lite future. All through the north and
east the mention Of the name FL Paso
calls forth many questions bearing on
these points. When the time comes
aha, We can truly cay that we are on
the same plane with, or above the
plane of, all other cities Of similar size
aud importance, then will the tide turn
our way In earnest, and capital will
rush in to build up the town to the
dimensions il deserves.
