FAILURE OF BIG COMBINE.
Contemplated Iron and Steel Trust
Will Not Be Formed.

New York, May 22.-Leading men in
the steel and iron trade said today that
the Incorporation of the new Carnegie
iron and steel combination under the
laws of Pennsylvania means the failure
of the contemplated big iron and steel
trust, which was TO include the Federal
Steel company, with joint capital of
nearly $1,000. 000 900. This opinion was
considered as corroborated by the aban-
donment of the Carnegie company
(headed by Mr.. Frick) of its New Jer-
sey charter. recently filed, and the fact
that many of the sub-companies of the
proposed consolidated company filed
notice at Albany today of their inten-
ton TO do business in this state. The
fees, etc, incidental to the taking out
of a charter in Pennsylvania, which
were to have been paid by Mr. Frick's
company, amounted to nearly 81. 00O,-
900.
A member of one of the constituent
or expected sub-companies, speaking
today of the failure of the proposed gil
gantic iron and steel combination. said
that Notwithstanding its failure the
contracts made by the various compa-
MES and sub-companies with the sew
eral tin plate companies will remain
operative. This is regarded as an i'm
portant result obtained by the attempt
to control the entire iron and steel
product in the country from the ore in
the mine to the finished product of
manufacture.

SHORTENING OF TIME.
Schedule Between Chicago and Coast
to Be Cut Several Hours.
Especial to The HeraId.J

Especial to The Herald.j
New York, May 22.-It is reported
that another important shortening cf
time will be made between Chicago and
the Pacific coast by the Northwest,
Union Pacific and Southern Pacific. 1t
is said that several hours will be
clipped from the schedule, but most of
it will come from the west end. Here
tofore the Southern Pacific would make
no reductions in its time and all in
crease of speed has been brought about
by the other two lines. Now, accord
ing to the report, a new spirit has
come upon the Southern Pacific and It
is said that it is willing to make its
share Of last time I. furnishing u new
schedule. 1t is believed that the acces-
sion of e. o. Mccormick as passenger
traffic mana ger of the southern IA
cific, has had something to do with this
change of sentiment. On his way west
a short time ago to assume his new
duties he stopped over in Omaha day
and spent most of the time in consul
tation with L. L. LomaX, general pas
Senger agent of the Union Pacific, and
1t is believed the result of that con-
ference will be a new schedule.

the land owners for right of way.
The people of Heber are taking hold
of this proposition in their usual liberal
spirit. The amount necessary to pur-
chase right of way, etc, for the road,
is in the neighborhood of $1,000. about
twothirds of which has already been

the full amount will have been raised.
and within few months the iron horse
will come snorting into Heber.

ton. The tornado was accompanied
by vivid lightning and a heavy hall
storm.
Several homes and church buildings
were wrecked in several localities, the
most serious being at Mount Pleasant,
Titus county. The noon services had
just closed, and the people were just
leaving when the wind struck the
building. a bolt of lightning and the
wind descended upon the house sinful
taneously, wrecking it and scattering
the debris in all directions. w. y.
Kaufman was instantly killed and some
fifteen other persons were more or less
injured, some fatally. Three are in
dying condition, according to reports.

AN IMPORTANT DEAL.
Oakland Transit Company's Bonds
Sold at Boston.

San Francisco, May 22.-The Exam
liner saws: A sale has been made i'll
Boston OF nearly the entire issue of
bonds of the Oakland Transit company,
amounting to $l,0OO,000, the transfer be-
ing made at about face value. The sale
in itself is important but it is Goublv
so from the general belief that the
Transit company has been absorbed in
the interests of the Atchison, Topeka
& Santa BE railroad terminal facilities
in Oakland. The Transit company
controls all of the street car lines in
Oakland except those on San Pablo and
Telegraph avenues. During the week
the bonds have advanced nearly twenty
points. The report that the Santa Fe
railroad is interested in the Boston
transfer is denied by Traffic Manager
Bissell, who declares that the Santa F'e
has no plans for entering Oakland
at present or in the near future.
