Englishmen Are Coming.


Englishmen Are Coming.
A representative of the syndicate was
on the ground a short time ago, con-
Quoted his examinations and sent his
report to England. Yesterday Mr. Tay-
lor received a cablegram announcing
that representatives of the syndicate
were preparing to sail for this coun-
try and would arrive on the ground
within the next few weeks. The same
capitalists have taken up other options
on coal and iron lands in the same vi
entity and from reliable sources 1T
has been learned that the Walker Bros.
of this city have their Iron county
properties tied up TO the same syndi-
cate. 1t has been known for some time
that their proposition was taken to
England, but the greatest obstacle to
a successful consummation was the
difficulty encountered in reducing the
coal in that section into a coke that
could be utilized in the smelling of
iron That difficulty has been entirely
overcome through the experiments
made in Chicago during the past few
months by c. H. Kroft and Brigham
Young of this city. with the Heming-
way process, the patents for which are
owned by L. z. Letter
One of the Walker brothers stated
only yesterday that the coke problem
was all that has stood in the. way OF
closing UP a deal with the Engiishmen.
Backed by Millions.
Mr.. Taylor says those in the Eng
lish syndicate are backed up by mil
lions of capital, and if they undertake
to develop the coming industry of this
state they will go at il on a gigantic
scale. 1t is. their intention to reach
the Pacific coast with the product, even
if they are obliged to build line of
railroad themselves to give an outlet
to the ocean at San Diego or San Pc
dro. where they could reach foreign
markets by water. as well as the coast
market. which is by TO means small
Although it is a little premature to
say lust yet what viii be done, yet Mr.
Taylor states that his people are COM
ing prepared to spend millions of dol
lars in opening up the enterprise.
Steel Companies Interested.
Mr. Taylor confirmed the report pub
lished exclusively in The Herald that
the Colorado Fuel & Iron company had
entered the same field, where repre-
sentatiyes of the concern have been
quietly tying up ground since last May.
o. Nj. Ladd of Denver has made sew
eral trips to this section of late and il
has leaked out that he has approached
severSl parties in this city and offered
big Inducements to them for their iron
and coal interests. 1t appears that he
has in s.everal instances made some
most tempting propositions. not only to
buy the lands outright but in some
cases has offered to pay a royalty of a
stated amount for every ton of iron ore

Decorations of Church.

The church floral decorations were
magnificent. A band of srnilax over
three feet wide and thlck enough to
hide the wall, ran around both sides
and the front of the main auditorium.
Above the windows the wreath ran un-
broken before the pipes of the great
organ. At the windows giant palms
reached up to the smilax. These palms
and the festooning around the windows
were laden with white flowers, prin-
cipally lilies of the valley. orchids and
chrysanthemums- Around the organ

Fairbury, Neb., Jan. 25.-Three weeks
ago a farmer named Kellerman butcher
ed a hog afflicted with trichinae. The
family, comprising himself, wife and
seven children, partook of the meat.
which was insufficiently cooked. Three
days later a daughter died and today the
mother, after fearful suffering. expired.
The father cannot live but a few days.
The family is miserably poor and Keller
man, with his six remaining children, lies
in a single room, conscious of what is 60
ing on, but rigid and unable to move. A
post norton on the body of Mrs. Keller
man showed parts of the body to be fairly

A CRAZE FOR
CONF INATIoN
The Iron Ages Review Of the
Situation.
THE TIN PLATE INDUSTRY
Seems to Have Consolidated and Shut
Out the Lesser COncerns--
BuOyant Reports.

New York, Jan. 26.-The Iron Age, in
it's weekly trade review today says: n
perfect craze is developing for colnbina-
ton. aided largely by the eagerness OF
bankers to promote such undertakings.
They seem to be o~utbiddlng one another
and encourage the disposition to put
fancy valuations IN moribund property.
Active work is going on in the cast IRON
pipe industry. In the soil pipe branch
there has been a movement for some time,
but it has been progressing 50 slowly that
some of the concerns are growing lmpa-
tient. The car builders have had their
meetings and the sheet mills have been IN
conference over o plan to consolidate.
The most interesting developments dur
ing the week, however, have been in con-
nection with the tin plate industry. The
same parties who carried through the
consolidation in this industry are report
ed to have perfected now a fusion Of the
leading makers in the central west Of tin
plate bars, five great plants being named.
1t is reported that arrangement have
been made with one of the great works IN
Pittsburg and another in the Wheeling
district to secure exclusive control of this
branch Of raw material. In other words
outside mills ore to find it difficult to OBJ
tain the tin plate bars. Another import
ant step in the same direction is the com-
pletiOn of arrangements with fOundrieS
and machine shops which make a spec
ialty of tin plate machinery, to control
their capacity for q considerable period.
The effort evidently is to keep out a rush
of outside capital into the business.
From all quarters come buoyant reports
concerning the volume of business and
the strength of the markets. In pig iron
the demand is active and what iron is Of
fered is readily snapped up without much
quarrelling as to prices. The billet mar
ket has been animated. Eastern buyers
have purchased considerable quantities
IN the west. In the steel rail trade Pitts
burg reports the sale of one block of 30
coo tons, while a considerable business has
been done by other firms. Sales have been
very active in bars and in car material of
all kinds. Among the transactions report
ed is a lot of 10000 tons for steel cars to
cover the material for some large con-
tracts recently taken. Foreign inquiries
for oil kim of material continue numer-
Gus and in some cases are pressing. thus
showing that the advance has not fright
ened buyers off.

ASK FOR RELEASE
OF PRISONERS

New York, Jan. pa dispatch to the
Herald from Washington says: Through
the French embassy here Spain has again
urged the United States to procure the
release of Spanish prisoners held by the
Philippine insurgents. Information Off
cially received by the Madrid government
from the Philippines shows that the lives
of Spanish women and children, as well
as men, are in danger and that the pris-
onors are not receiving proper treatment.
The Spanish government called attention
to that provision OF the treaty requiring
this government to use its good offices
to procure the release of the prisoners,
and urged the United States to do every
thing possible to do.
Secretary Hay replied that General
Otis had been instructed to give imme-
diate attention to the matter, but this
government has made no promises to obs
tain the release of the prisoners. 1t is
the growing belief that they will be able
to obtain the release of the prisoners only
by force. Information has also been re-
ceived here showing that 500 friars, held
as prisoners, are compelled by the Fill
pinos to undergo all sorts of mental
labors, such as attending to the horses
OF Filipino officers, paving the streets of
towns and so forth.

DEATH RATE is
NOT EXCESSIVE

Washington, Jan. 25.-Inquiry made al
the war department into the reports Of the
rapid increase in the number of smallpox
cases among the American soldiers in Ma
Mia elicits the assurance that the sick re-
ports sent about twice a week by Gen.
Otis exhibit the full extent of the dread
disease so far as the officials themselves
know. The mortality rate is not'excessiye
but, of course, it is not denied that the
soldiers would be safer at home than they
are at present in Manila, suffering from
some sicknesses, which always follow pro-
tracted waiting without action.
A most interesting report has reached
the government through two young naval
officers, n of them Paymaster Wilcox,

The Great Actor Planning an
American Tour
TO LAST TWENTY WEEKS
He is Particularly Anxious to Visit
San FranciscO--Decides Upon
His Leading Play.

New York, Jam. 26.-The Herald says:
Sir Henry Irving is now in active negotia-
tons by mail and cable with several
American managers looking to the COM
lea, which he will make next season. He
has personally communicated to them the
ideas he has in mind for the trip. It is
Sir Henry's present Intention to produce
"R~obespierre," his new Sardou play, at
the Lyceum in London at Easter and his
management there will last until we'll into
the summer AT it's termination and after
a short rest he will sail for America early
in october. His stay in America will be
limited to twenty weeks and in that time
it is his wish to visit all the principal
cities. He is particularly anxious to play
again in San Francisco, where his pre-
vious engagement several years 6 was
remarkably successful in every way.
"Robespierre' he decided upon as the fea-
ture of his repertoire during his American
tour but he will also present several Of
the pieces that proved popular on his 9TH
er visits there. Sir Henry a found con-
siderable difficulty in arranging his tour
west just as he wishes it on account Of
the small amount of open time at the
principal theaters throughout the coun-
try. Several managers are confident, how
ever, that they can arrange matters sat
isfactorily and have informed Sir Henry
that they will be pleased to undertake the
direction of his tour.

RUM0RS Q IA
RAILROAD DEAL

New York, Jan. 16.-The Tribune says:
Reports are current that large interests
Some of the rumOrs say the Vanderbilts
and others a combination of the Wander
bits and the Pennsylvania railroad-are
acquiring the control of the Lake Erie
& Western railroad, the stock especially
mentioned as thus being transferred be-
ing the holdings Of the Calvin S. Brice
estate. Concerning this report, Fred
erick w. Whitridge, chairman of the
board, says:
Mrs. Brice has not sold her Lake Erie
& Western stock, and, as far as known.
she does not intend to sell it. I do NOT
know of any large blocks of the stock
having changed hands or about to be
transferred. If any such deal as is ru-
mored was undo way | should probably
know about it,"
Two of the other directors Of the Lake
Erie & Western said that they knew
nothing of any movement for transfer
ring control of the road, although the
activity in the stock might indicate that
an attempt by certain interests was be-
ing made to purchase the controlling in
%terests. Only one meeting of the direc-
tors has been held since the death of
President Brice, and at that meeting the
subject Of the sale of the road was not
discussed or even mentioned. 1t was said
by some persons that the Big Four Nhe
Cleveland, Cincinnita, Chicago & st.
Louis) had bought, or was planning to
buy, the Lake Erie & Western. This
story could not be verified, nor could
others previously referred to. connecting
the Vanderbilts and the PENNSYLVANIA
with the alleged effort to secure control
Of the Lake Erie & Western. 1t has been
understood for several days that the Big
FOL is now fully under the control OF
the Vanderbilts.

on the highroad to recover was innocu-
lated and he died within "a hours. Many
dying patients have been tortured by

st. Louis, Mo, Jan. 26.-Charles Green,
a prominent real estate man, left for
Lexington, ny., today to sell at auction
the famous Lexington race track, oper-
ated by the Kentucky Racing associa-
ton. The track has existed for 80 years,

to its assistance with a loan of $50, 600.
The indebtedness has now run up to
