A NATURAL ACQUISITION
ANOTHER RATE DEMORALIZER TO
BE ABSORBED BY A STRONG LINE.
Probab le Acquisition of the p, ID. &
E. by the Illinois Central-General
and Personal Notes.

Rumors OF the coming absorption OF the
Peoria. Decatur * Evansville by the Illinois
Central have beer persistent during the last
week. and with apparent justification. The
line would be a natural acquisition for the
Illinois Central. and its absorption would
not only be an unquestionable benefit TO the
territory directly served by the Evansville
road. but IL would be another step in the
evolution OF the transportation system of
the country. Never has it been made more
evident than during the last few months
that Ii Is the weaker and more irresponsi-
bic lines that have to answer for most Of
the rate decentralization. In bad times,
when all roads alike are fighting unscrupu-
lousy for business. it is always difficult to
trace any particular Generalization to its
source. OF late, however, the cutting and
illegal practices have been almost entirely
confined to the weaker roads. Every step
in consolidation. every time that railroad
interests become centered In fewer hands.
the chances of rate wars and of law break
ing are diminished. Nothing of the pro-
posed deal is known In Evansville. A spe-
Hopkins is now in New York. and the off,
Gals know nothing of the deal If the ILL.,
nois Central has gained control it is through
the purchase Of the majority of the mort
gage bonds of the p, ID. & z. Before the
Illinois Central can take charge OF the road,
providing the rumored deal Is correct, ii
will have TO be sold and taken out OF the
hands OF the receiver. who Is the officer of
the United States Court This will take at
least six months

President Sam Of Hayti.

It is far less easy to get to the Presi-
dent of Hayti than to Mr.. Mckinley OF
the White House. The pavilion-like
palace in the Champ de Mars, sur
rounded by it's little park, enclosed by
a tall iron grating, with lookout boxes
at the angles, a large and strong mill
tary barrack at the rear, and field cam
non posted here and there, could stand
a considerable siege, and, with a faith
full garrison, would be proof against al
most any mob attack. There is no end
of etiquette involved in the approach to
Son Excellence. Yet 1 was favored with
fortunate opportunities for seeing Mr..
Simon Sam. Tall and massive. with
an immense paunch, and features and
hue that are typically African, as you
gaze at him in his sumptuous uniform,
gorgeous with gold lace and brilliant
silk scarf, you cannot help picturing to
your minds eye his hypothetical APP
pearance as a mid-African chief, with
huge feathers in his topknot, only q
rattle beaded clout about his loins, a
nail studded war club in one hand, and
about him a band of dusky savages
more naked than himself, instead of
these strutting gentlemen in tall hats
and European clothes, and these other
prancing gentlemen in guady trappings,
with~tinkling spurs and jingling swords
President Sam, however, is not, as 1t
appears thus far, 81 man to be person.

Denis O'Sullivan, the greatest living
Irish ballardist, in an evening OF song.
OF this noted singer the San Francisco
Chronicle" of May 31st, said:
1T was very pretty. compliment TO
Denis O'Sullivan that such an audience,
largely made up of ladies of prominence,
should gather last night at Sherman,
Clay & Cos Hail. But the concert and
the singer deserved it, and the listeners
applauded every number so heartily
that it amounted to an encore OF every
thing, which, however, Mr.. OSullivan
did not accept. The program had nine
teen songs on it, all Irish, from very
early times down to Shamos O'Brien.'
Truly no such variety has been offered
of Irish melodies since he himself gave
a concert, and it is quite sure that we
have had no singer in immediate recol-
lection who could touch the harp that
