At meeting held in New York yester-
day the board of directors of the Chesa-
peake G. Ohio Railroad was reorganized.
presumably in the interests of the Penn
sylvania Railroad and the Vanderbilts by
the election OF the following as directors:
S. M. Provost, Samuel Rea, N II. Parker
Shortridge, Chauncey NJ. Depew, III. Nc
Kay Twombly and H. j. Hayden. The
three first named are said to represent the
Pennsylvania and the three latter the
Vanderbilts. The old directors are G. W.
Stevens, president, Decatur Axtel and II.
7. Wickham. Rumors have been in circu-
lation for several days regarding a pro-
posed extension of the Chesapeake & Ohio.
and including the acquisition Of the Toledo
e. Ohio Central and Kanawha & Michigan
railroads. President Galloway, of the
Chesapeake & Ohio, when asked to-day
about these reports, said: There is not a
word of truth in it. A majority of the stock
OF the Chesapeake & Ohio is owned by the
New York Central and the Pennsylvania
railroads, and there are to be no extern
sions. The Chesapeake & Ohio is now I'm a
position where each OF the other roads
named has close interest In its policy
and management, and ii will not figure in
any outside deals. The fact that the Chesa-
peake IL Ohio Is a natural feeder as we'll as
an outlet of the Big Four made 1t neces-
sary that the Vanderbilts should have a
voice in its management"
Another influential officer i'm the Wander
bilt system said THE time has gone by
for the Chesapeake & Ohio to be used in
any new deal. IL is the property of the
VanderbiltS and the Pennsylvania Rail-
road. and majority of the stock is put
away where spectators cannot reach 1t.
Undoubtedly such traffic alliances as the
Chesapeake & Ohio has. which are of adj
vantage, will be maintained and strength
ened.''
Another report i'm circulation recently
has coupled the name of Vanderbilt with
the Baltimore & Ohio. The recent activity
and upward movement of both classes of
r. & o. stock has been attributed to heavy
buying by the Vanderbilt interest, and
rumor has declared that the New York
Central would have equal representation
with the Pennsylvania and the Baltimore
& Ohio board of directors. mot word of
| truth in such stories" commented Presi-
| dent Galloway. '"The New York Central
does not own dollars worth OF stock i'm
the Baltimore K Ohio and is not looking
| for any representation in it's directorate.
The Central has no interest i'm that prop
erty."
The Chesapeake & Ohio runs from New
port News to Cincinnati and it is COM
posed of number of subordinate lines, in
| Guiding the Elizabeth, Lexington & Big
| Sandy, the Ohio & Big Sandy River, the
| Kentucky e. South Atlantic and the Vir-
| ginia Midland. There has also been close
traffic relations between the Chesapeake &
Ohio and the kanawha & Michigan.

Why Wool is High,

A blind partisan republican press
that sees all prosperity eth er local
or national through the Dingley
tariff bill is devoting columns these
days trying to tell what protection
has done for wool, The fact that 20
cents is being paid for wool stirs
them to shout Eisee what protection
has done" During the year 1899
the price of wool advanced to fig
ure higher than any time in 80
years. But what was the cause is
the question? The same old law Of
supply and demand. In 1898 there
was a drouth in Australia that
caused the loss OF thousands of
sheep, which of course effected the
wool shipments room that section.
In France the wool shipments were
also effected.
The result was immediatly felt in
England and the United States.
These two countries being the heav-
lest purchasers of the wool product
OF these countries. In Free Trade
England the price OF wool advanced
81 per cent last year. In protect
ionist America the price of wool
went up DO per cent, 1t takes the

RAILROAD And
OTHER TALK,
After Gathering all
the Facts in the Case
the Devil Gives His
Opinion.

One of The Standard reporters
has just returned from Cottonw wood,
another from White Bird, yet an
other from Stuart, therefore the
Edevil" is able to form fairly ac-
curate conclusions, and in substance
these are that the Northern Pacific
will build to Grangeville soon as
they can, provided the Grangeville
people 'sget out of their shell and
scrape the moss off This is the
conclusion of any reasonable person
from Col. Brackets letter published
in last weeks Standard, which was
evidently dictated by Mr.. Mellen
himself, fully intending to build
the road to this place if treated by
Grangeville people with any degree
OF fairness. In this letter he gave
them warning 80 that they might
not commit any error to their own
disadvantage. Now Cottonwood
people construe this letter from
their own point Of view, for instance
Sam Gol6stone buttonholed one OF
our reporters and told him conf
dentially that the r. a. l. N. road
build up Rocky Canyon and stop
at Cottonwood and in this connect.
ion Sam and others claimed that
Cottonwood's great advantage was
In the unity and harmony of the
citizens of that berg. Every one
loving his neighbor as himself In
fact inducements were held out for
The Standard to move there, but the
principal argument for such change
was that the Cottonwood people
Especially the business menu were
the most peaceable on earth and
