The news was q complete surprise to
local railroad men, as no rumor OF
change in the traffic department OF
either road had been circulated. Il is
believed that the approaching en-
trance OF the Santa re into San Fran
cisco and consequent competition
something the Southern Pacific has not
yet had to face on traffic into that
city. is the cause Of the change. Mr.
Mccormick Is a progressive passenger
man and Is considered one OF the best

indication Of its condition 4 depres-
sion IN commercial lines means aban-
doned business trips and the caucella-
ton OF pleasure travel while a healthy
condition Of affairs means business
trips and an increase of passengers on
pleasure bent
A good evidence that a business re-

country is the Lake Shore Limited d"

TEN, between New York and Chicago.

a view to taking the best possible care
OF its patrons, the New York Central

tional standard sleeper on the trains

POST OFFICE ROBBED.
SUCCESSFUL WORK OF CRACKS
MEN IN WILLIAMSBURG.

A gentleman from Williamsburg yes
terday informed the Virginian-Pilot
that sometime Sunday night burglars
forced an entrance to the postohice OF
that town, which is located in the Pc
ninsula Bank building, blew open the
large iron safe and carried away
stamps, money, etc, to the value OF at
least 500. Among the missing mail
matter are ten registered letters. the
value of which are unknown.
The thieves entered Il window on the
last side Of the building, then opened
the front doors. They were evidently
experienced in their line, as the job
was 4 neat one.
y hole was drilled near the comb!na-
ton lock. n stick Of dynamite inserted,
and the rest was easy work. All the
drawers and boxes containing money
were carried away. and one was found
on Nicholson street this morning minus
tho cash.
Postmaster Ware stated yesterday
morning before our informant left that
rs he had not completed an inventory
he could not tell exactly what the loss
is.

PEANUT DEAL FAILS
The Trust NegIects to Take Up Its
Options.
A Promoter Secures nh Extcnsiol OF
Options with ~ View to Organic.
ing Another Combine 10 Control
tise Market.

That peanut trust which was formed
in New York under the name of the
American Edible Nut Company died
before it actually came into existence,
and its promoter, Charles T.. w.
Smith, of New York, was in Norfolk
yesterday to secure the old options on
the peanut plants here and in other
portions of Virginia for the purpose OF
interesting other capitalists in the pea
nut business and forming another trust.
Just why the options on the plants
were not taken advantage of and the
trust actively put into existence, does
not appear. y Mr.. Trcachviler who
visited Virginia, is said to have had an
option on every cleaning house in the
State secured for the purpose of fos-
tcring the combine. but these options
have expired several times. They were
extended each time and the last cx-
tension was until the i5;h instant.
CAPITALISTS BACK DOWN.
1t is now stated on what is consid-
cred good authority that the capital
lists at first interested have backed
down. Any way. the deal has not Gull
minated. and the hopes of the original
plan Of combine being carried out now
rest elsewhere.
1t is entirely speculation to offer any
reason for the failure of the proposed
| deal. One theory is that the capital
lists interested decided that the prices
asked by the owners of the plants were
too high. The plants are located in
Norfolk. Smith;ield. Suffolk. Peters
burg, Wakefield and Franklin. Their
estimated values are said to be in the
millions. They control the entire pea
nut business.
RENEWALS SECURED.
Mr. Smith is said to have secured the
renewal or extension of all the options
held before. and these. 1t is stated.
covered the entire business. The extern
sion is until June LIST. 1t is believed
that by that date sufficient capital to
launch the combine will have been Sc
cured. some OF the peanu; men have
no faith in the combine, since it has
been postponed for so long Il time.
Mr.. X. H. Elliott and Captain J. L..
Roper. representing big peanut inter,
ests in Norfolk. were seen last night
and it was learned that the Norfolk
houses all gave an extension of OPP
tons
Mr. Smith returned to New York
yesterday afternoon. where he will
work up the trust. The capital which
wae interested before has not all been
withdrawn. i; is unders TODD and Mir.
Smith expects TO bring the deal to Il
elimination in a few weeks.

proceedings in Council. Judge uanckcl
did not force Clerk Stead to answer. as

The attorneys for the property hold

when condemnation proceedings shall
