Chicago, Jan. 19.-The Chronicle to-
day will say: LAS a result of recent
consultations and agreements among
the owners of great trunk railways
east of Chicago the entire transpOrta-
ton system between the Mississippi
river and the Atlantic seabOard is to
be reorganized, involving the following
changes: The abandonment of city
ticket offices of all railroads in the syn
dictate in Chicago, New York, Philadel-
phia, Boston, Buffalo, Baltimore, Wash
ington, Pittsburg, Cincinnati, Cleve-
land, Detroit, indianapolis, Peoria and
St. Louis and the substitution of joint
offices in each city. The discharge of
all city, general travelling and district
freight passenger agents and solicitors
of eastern roads in all parts of the
United States, Canada and Europe;
this will affect nearly $4,000 men.
The abolition of all forms of commits
sions heretofore paid for the sale of
tickets over these roads; this will at
feet the incomes of 10000 agents and
eliminate scalpers. The estab-
lishment in Chicago and New
of joint auditing agencies that
will apportion to each road an agreed
percentage of the total competitive
business. The discharge of all super
fluous assistants to the heads of de-
partments of individual roads; later
the heads of these departments may
be abolished and the work done by
clerks who will report to two joint
agencies The establishment in New
York of a board of control made up
of persons representing the Wander
bilt, Pennsylvania, Morgan and Har-
riman properties and the rulings of
this board on all questions to be final.

La Crosse Breach of Promise Case
Goes in Her Favor.

La Crosse, Wis, Jan. 19.-The jury
in the case of Anna Jacobs against
Henry Poehling, a breach of promise
suit, brought in verdict of $500 for
the plaintiff. Poehling is we'll known
hardware merchant at West Salem
The question was only that of the de-
PENDANTS failure to comply with his
promise to marry Miss Jacobs and
there were no sensational features.
The plaintiff, Miss Anna Jacobs, of
Leon, Monroe county, sued for $4,000.
The case was bitterly contested and
a quite unusual feature Of the action
is that the principal attorney for the
defense, E. G. Higbee, is himself de-
PENDANT in breach of promise case
to be tried at the present term of
court.

H. R. WILLIAMS MANAGER.
Takes Responsible Position on the
Milwaukee Road.

Milwaukee, Jan. 19.-General Su-
perintendent Henry R. Williams has
been elected general manager of the
Milwaukee railway lines. Assistant
General Superintendent William J..
Underwood has been elected general
superintendent. Supt w. w. Collins
of Chicago has not been made as
sistant general superintendent, as has
been reported, and no provision for
Assistant General Superintendent
Bushs going to Minneapolis from Mil
waukee has been made, as has been
stated An assistant general super
intendent to succeed Mr.. Underwood
will be chosen soon. The report that
Mr.. Williams had been chosen simply
as the temporary successor to Gen
eral Manager Collins is wrong, for
Mr. Williams is permanently selected
for this important position.
Roswell Miller makes the following
statement:
Henry R. Williams is now general
manager of the Milwaukee road; he is
permanently Installed and this is not
mere temporary arrangement, as
final action has been taken. William
j. Underwood of Minneapolis has been
chosen as the successor to Mr.. Will
liams as general superintendent.
There remains but one more change
to be made, and that is the selection
of a successor to Mr.. Underwood; that
will not be made for some time, so
that the stateemnt that W. W. Collins
Of Chicago is to be the assistant gen
eral superintendent is not correct; it
is purely an imaginary statement. No,
there is no plan to create the position
of general ticket agent"

Washington, Jan. 19.-Mr. Corliss
of Michigan introduced in the house
Thursday a bill for the construction
of a cable between this country,
Hawaii, Guam, Philippines and our
other possessions. The bill, which is
substantially the same as that of last
year, limits the cost to $8,O0O,OOO.
The house passed the senate bill to
extend the powers of the director of
census, after striking out the commit
tee amendment to authorize the di-
rector to contract for extra printing
with private contractors. The whole
| fight was upon that amendment The
influence of the public printer and
labor organizations of the country
were employed against it. After a
lively debate of several hours it was
Overwhelmingly defeated. The publ
cation on the reports of the twelfth
census will therefore be made by the
public printer as in the past. Amend
ments were adopted for the collection
of statistics relating to the deaf, dumb
and blind, and to require the collection
of statistics regarding mines, mining
and minerals.
SENATE.
For an hour Mr. wellington (rep,
Mo- occupied the attention of the SEN
ate, continuing the debate on the Phil
ippine question. He took as his text
the resolution he introduced last Tues
day, declaring the United States should
not take permanent possession
of the archipelago, but,
after subduing the insurrection-wh
he sincerely deplored-should confer
upon the Filipinos the right to govern
themselves, affording them such pro-
lection as they might need. Mr.. Tel
Ter (sil. rep, COLI resumed his speech
on the financial bill, in the course of
which he arraigned Secretary Gage
for negotiations with the National
City bank of New York Mr. Teller
criticised the pending bill because it
afforded an opportunity to banks to
read the now famous letter of Vice
President A. B. Hepburn of the Ma
tional City bank of New York to Sec
rotary Gage and said that when he
saw the bank presidents taking such
actions in politics as were indicated
by the Hepburn letter he was satisfied
the situation demanded severe criti-
cism if not drastic action. He re-
viewed the monetary conditions in
foreign countries and declared that
this was not a safe time to make
change in our monetary system. With
out completing his remarks, Mr.. Teller
suspended for the day, promising to
continue at some later date. The
senate then went into executive ses-
sion and later adjourned.
