Britain's Largest Lakes.

The largest lake in the British Isles Is
Lough Neagh, situated in the province
of Ulster, Ireland. 1t is eighteen miles
English in length, and eleven miles in
breadth, contains 9S,255 acres, is 12O
feet in greatest depth, and is 4S feet
above sea level at low water. 1t re-
.ceives the waters of numerous streams,
of which the principal are the Upper
Bann, the Blackwater, the Moyola and
the Main; and it's surplus waters are
carried off northward to the North
Channel by the Lower Bann. In some
portions of the Tough the waters show
remarkable petrifying qualities, and
petrified wood found in these parts is
made into homes. It is well stocked
with fish, and it's shores are frequented
by the swan, heron, bittern, teal and
other water fowl. The largest lake in
Scotland is Loeb I1omond, which has an
area Of forty-five square miles, and
which is only % feet above the level Of
the sea. Windermere is the most extern
siye English lake, though it Is a mere
pond compared to it's sisters of Scotland
and Ireland. 1t has been called the
Queen Of the Lakes" from the supe-
riority of it's scenery over that of the
other lakes of northwestern England.

Henry Clay Frick Now in Com nand of
These Interests Likely that This Is
Step in the Form a tion of the Great
est Combine on Earth.

Andrew Carnegie, the greatest manufac-
turer in the world, has sold out to the
new steel trust. This removes the last
obstacle to a consolidation of practically
all the steel producing companies of the
United States.
This will be not only the greatest trust
but the greatest combination of capital
and manufacturing plants in christendom.
It will have capital of $600,0OO,OOO, of
which $1OO,OOO,O0O will be in first mort
gage per cent gold bonds, $3.50, 0OO,O 600
in preferred stock, and $25O,OOO,O00 in
common stock.
Mr.. Carnegie is to retire from business
permanently, turning over the controlling
interest in his vast steel making concerns
to the new trust and receiving in payment
the entire issue of $1O0,OOO,OOO in gold
bonds, which becomes mortgage not only
upon the Carnegie mills but upon all the
other steel mills owned by the trust, with
$5OO,OOO,OO0 Of stock back of them.

The last move in the negotiations termi-

Washington Monday when Secretary Hay
paid to the French ambassador, M. Cam
bon, the $20,OOO,O0O provided by the
treaty of peace for the cession Of the Phil
ippines. The payment was made in four
treasury warrants of 100000 each and
was receipted for by NJ. Cambon as COM
pletely liquidating the obligation Of the

Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
Vanderlip handed to Secretary Hay the
the drafts for $20,00O,O00 to be turned
over to the Spanish Government through
Ambassador Cambon. The State Depart
ment at once sent word to the French arn-
bassador that the warrants were in hand
and would be turned over to him at any
time. M. Cambon strolled over to the
department He was alone and no extra
precaution was taken to guard the trans
fer of such a large amount. Secretary
Hay received the ambassador in the diplo-
matte room, where the transfer took place
with little formality.

WINTER WHEAT OUTLOOK FAIR.
Reports in Some States Are Bad, but
Others Good.

Others Good.
Reports on the condition Of winter
wheat have been received by the Farmers
Review from it's correspondents in Illinois,
Indiana, Michigan, Kentucky, Ohio, Mis-
souri, and Kansas. In northern Illinois
the outlook is extremely discouraging,
many of the farmers declaring they will
turn up their crops entirely. In such
counties as Schuyler and Adams only 10
per cent will be left, while in Logan, Ma
coupin, Sangamon, Shelby, and Knox
counties Is per cent will be plowed under.
In southern Illinois the reports are far
from bright, but more hopeful than those
nearer Chicago.
Recent rains have brought hopes of pros
perity to tillers of the soil in Indiana. In
the central part of the State the reports
are quite encouraging. Early sown wheat
in Kentucky looks well, but the late sown
bad. The conditions are said to be gen.
orally fair. Kansas has little better it'd
ings to report than Illinois. Snow saved
the wheat in Michigan, where high hopes
are expressed by the farmers. In Wex-
ford County an exception is recorded, how
ever, correspondents claiming that so per
cent will have to be turned under.

northern part of the State will be almost

Missouri farmers have been more fortu-

plowed up. In Ohio the best reports are
from Huron, Geauga, Hancock and Ma

from 95 to 100 per cent The reports on
