NEW YORK CENTRAL
SHIPPING IMPROVEMENTS.
Better Facilities TO Be Made For the
Loading OF Grain for Shipment
to Foreign Ports.

NEW YORK. May s.-The New York
Central Railway Company is contem-
plating making many improvements and
enlargements Of the terminal facilities at
the end OF the West Shore line in Wee
hawken. II Is understood that part of
the general scheme will be the building
OF an elevator with a, capacity OF 3Ooo.-
eco bushels and the erection OF several
large piers giving facilities for the
loading of grain into steamships. The
purpose OF the improvements is TO pro-
vide more adequate means in weehaw-
ken for handling grain and other coarse
.frclgh; OF the Vanderbilt system, give
more attention to passenger business and
the less bulky classes of freight It Is
believed that the improved facilities for
handling grain economically will reduce
the terminal charges sufficiently to d.
rect the shipment OF grain to this port
instead OF TO Montreal. Recently grain
has been shipped to Montreal in irereas-
ed quantities because of the smaller
charges at that port.

BICYCLE TRUST RENT
WITH INTERNAL DlssENsIoN.
Some OF the Larger Manufacturers Are
Threatening to Withdraw and Dis
rupl the Organization.

NEW YORK, May S-rhe Herald
says:
More disscnsions have arisen In the
bicycle trust and threaten to disrupt that
giant combination When the hundred
or more manufacturers OF bicycles and
bicycle parts gave options on their plants
10 A, O. sraulding on June l, 1t was
understood that such plants as were ac-
ccptei by him were to be paid for In
cash at that time,
Scores OF manufacturers came TO this
city last week with the expectation OF
closing their deals with the manager for
the trust. They were more or less in
dgnant when they were requested to
extend their options to August l. II
now develops that several Of them made
protests against delay, and
at least one OF the biggest makers in
the combination refused flatly to renew
his option.
More than this. the opposition to the
trust that was led originally by r. T.
Coleman. was revived and now threatens
10 develop more strength than II at
first possessed. 1t will be remembered
that after the Incorporation OF the Amer
lean Bicycle Company with capital OF
sSO, ,OO0 Mr.. Coleman who had previ-
ously Incorporated the International We
hicle & Manufacturing Company, a much
smaller capitalization. surrendered, The
attorney for Mr.. Coleman said yesterday
that Mr.. Coleman was just now out OF
the trust for good, having positively re-
fused to extend the option on his plant
Among manufacturers this Is taken to
mean that Mr. Coleman. with the aid OF
several other large bicycle manufactur-
ers, vehicle and part makers, will follow
out his original intention of fighting the
trust at all points. A story gained cir
hast night that In such fight
Mr.. Coleman will be backed by the rub
Der trust, besides having the support Of
he steel tube combination.
Mr.. Coleman and Mr., Spaulding held a
conference at the Waldorf-Astoria on
Wednesday, but neither would make
public what resulted from 1t, On good
authority II Is stated that Mr. Coleman
notified Mr. spauldlng that he could not
be induced TO enter the trust. BY mem
bers of the big combination 1t is claimed
that options have not been extended. but
that those who gave them have been
notified that a financial settlement can
not be made before August 1, This ex-
ira time is declared, to examine the titles
to properties which It is desired to bring
into the trust.

Members Urged to Organize the
Party-WilI Meet at Chi
oagO In hIy.
JEFFERSON CLUB BANQUET
william J. Bryan Talks on MOaOpolles
Remedy Suggested to Check the
Formation of Trusts.

ST. LOUIS. May 2.--when the confer
enee Of the members OF the democratic
national committee adjourned this after
noon at 500 o'clock It had taken no action
regarding the policy Of the party In the
coming presidential campaign and no
plans for platform were even discussed.
The meeting from the first TO last was
one o. discussion regarding the Methods
OF the work OF next year, and the ways
and means by which this work could be
accomplished best All members were
urged to see that the organization Of the
party in their respective states is perfect
ed as soon as possible and all prspara-
tlons made for the fight. The matters
'of antitrust" "anti-imperialism' and
silver were not touched upon. No action
was taken regarding .Aem and no rec
concentrations were made.
The next meeting OF the conference Will
probably be held In Chicago. July 20, and
Chairman Jones. of the national commit
tee. has been asked to call a formal
meeting for that date.
It is expected that at this meeting
definite action viii be taken and the
question Of what is to be the rallying
cry Of the democracy in the fall OF 1889
will be determined.
At the Jefferson Club banquet tonight,
W. J, Bryan spoke on monoplies. he
said:
IAN actor who visited Nebraska recent
ly upon learning from a republican that
confidence had been restored, remarked
that when he had examined webster's
dictionary TO learn what confidence"
meant and found confidence" defined as
trust" and then he understood that con-
hdence had been really restored More
trusts have been formed during the last
two years than existed al the beginning
Of the present administration and the
nominal capitalization of the trusts now
in existence approaches. If it does not
equal in amount, the worlds total sup
ply Of gold and silver.
The influence of these trusts has be-
come so enormous that the people, with
out respect to party. are asking them
selves how the evil can be remedied one
Of the difficulties which has been en-
in opposing the trusts is that
the trust hides behind the federal con-
when attacked by the state
legislation. and shields itself behind its !
state charter when attacked in the fed !
eral courts. No remedy will be complete
that Is not co-exteasive with the govern
ment. If the extinguishment of trusts is
eft to state legislation the public at
large wiA be victimized as long as a
single state will furnish the robbers a
roost where the spOns collected In other
states san be divided
At the close of the conference Bryan
said:
What action will be taken by the
democracy regarding its platform it is
90 early to be discussed, but am sure
# one thing and that is that silver will |,
lot be relegated out of sight 1t cannot
'e. 1t is the issue that has come to stay
md the people will not allow 1t to be
'ut In the background" I

LONDON, May 25,-The correspondent
of the Daily News at The Hague says:
Sir Julian Pauncefote entertains the
hope that the conference will favor the
establishment OF a permanent tribunal
for arbitration and mediation. He says;
what Is wanted is to secure prompt
and certain ways to International JUS
tice. This is the right way to discourage
the use of forces to further the cause
of arbitration. The mere fact OF the
existence Of such tribunal would exert
a potential influence In behalf OF lnterna-
tlonal justice"

Some time ago Mr.. Bankhead expressed
sentiments hostile to Mr.. Bryan and got
into a considerable muss over it at home
whereupon he wrote letters to democratic
members of Congress, whose support for
his candidacy for the speakership nomina-
ton he had solicited, disciaiming any hos
tility toward Bryan and reaffirming his
loyalty TO the Chicago platform democrats
The fact that he is known TO have discuss

delegates to the next democratic national
convention and has referred to the Chicago
platform as handicap, Is, however, sum
Client to encourage the anti-Bryan men in
the belief that il was worth while to call
him into conference at Saratoga.
