thing to criticise. Before half of the
program had been given, however, it
room for criticism except of the favor

when Lieut. Godfrey raised his baton

frey and his band are certain fixtures
His reputation is first among the
bandsmen of the world

writes as follows:
The Platinum process is decidedly
the most perfect process OF photo
graphic printing, as the metal is not
affected by any sulphurous fumes O.
compounds such as are found in the At
mosphere, whereas other processes ara
easily attacked by them.
THE impression is indeed unalter-
able and were it possible to hold .
platinotype print in the hand for sew

crumble and rot away, but the photo

intact.

CASHIS LACKING.
All That Is Required to Close the
Croker Deal.

San Francisco, Dec. 12-Geo. Croker,
second vice president of the Southern
Pacific company, has returned from
New York. In an interview he denied
the report that he had resigned from
the board of directors
I am still representing the Croker
interests in the Southern Pacific" he
added. THE information has been Civ
en- out that the Speyer syndicate has
purchased all the Croker stock. The
syndicate has bought the stock, but it
has not paid for it as yet. Negotiations
are all concluded and we have agreed
upon a price, but the cash has not
been paid over, so far as 1 have been
able to learn. Until the stock is paid
for I shall continue to represent the
CrOcker interests in the company, and
shall not resign until then"
Mr.. Croker stated that J. w. Mac
key and D. o. Mills had been mention
ed as successors of Directors Russell J.
Wilson and c. @. Lathrop, but they had
not yet been elected.
Vice President CrOcker says that the
Spever syndicate is composed of New
York, English, Berlin and Frankfort
bankers, and it appears that c. 2.
HuntingtOn's only interest in the re-
cent stock deals was confined to his
purchase of Southern Pacific stock
from the syndicate after~it had been
purchased from other holders Hunt
ingtOn has increased his interest in the
railroad corporation by purchasing
from the SpeyerS a certain proportion
of the Croker stock. The syndicate re-
taints the balance Of the CrOcker and
all of the Stanford stock, and for the
protection of it's interests it will have
certain representatives on the board of
directors.
Concerning all the rumored negotia-
tons for the purchase OF the CrOcker
interests in the Pacific Improvement
cOnnpanq, Mr.. Croker would only say
that the Croker interests remained in
tact and would not be sold.
