The Circus Interests.

Columbus, O.: Jan. SO.-The greatest
circus interests in the world will be con-
solidated in 1902, if two satisfactory
clauses in a partnership agreement are
amended. This statement is made upon
the authority of Peter A. Sells. one of the
owners of the Sells Brothers shows, ana
which will be absorbed by the proposed
consolidation if an agreement is reached.
Those interested in the proposed COM
bination are tbs Sells Brothers of this
city; James A. Bailey. now in Europe
with the Barnum and Bailey circus, who
has retired from the active management,
cut whose capital is heavily invested in
amusement enterprises.
Mr.. Bailey recently made a flying trip
to this country and was met in New
York by Mr.. Cole and Peter Sells. The
scope and plans Of the combination were
talked over at that time and a draft of 4
contract was drawn up.
This draft was received by the Messrs.
! Sells last week. but has been returned to
New York unsigned. 1t contained sew
eral Objectionable features. The great
est of these provides that the winter
quarters of the show shall be in Bridge
port, Conn.
Peter Sells said he would never con-
sent to leaving Columbus. Columbus is
The place." said Mr.. Sells. "that my bro
Their and myself call home. have told
Mr.. Bailey that l will not consent to
making my home in New York city or
Bridgeport, Connecticut"
Il have also argued in favor Of Column
bus the fact that the show can be wins
tered there much cheaper than 1t can in
Bridgeport. OF course, the distance from
Bridgeport to New York, where our sea-
Sons would open, is not SO great as from
! Columbus to New York. hut that item Of
transportation would be more than bal
anced in the saving made in winter ex-
penses if the show winters in Columbus
Objections to the clause providing that
the contract shall take effect in 1901 is
based on the ground that the Sells Bros,
will not be ready to enter into the agree
ment at that time.
In event of the contamination of the
plans the active management Of the pro-
posed new show would be in the hands OF
the Sells Bros. The provision is made tina,
Lewis Sells hail be the manager, and
that Peter Sells shall be in full charge OF
the advance work.
The negotiations have reached a stage
where plans for the proposed show nave
been mapped out. The idea is to build
the show on entirely new and along lines
rather revolutionary in character.
One feature that will excite interest
will be the almost general introduction OF
electricity as a motive power. The frs,
idea was to do away with horses entirely
except for ring purposes. This was con.
sidered too radical an Invocation and
compromise was arranged.
Some horses will be used in pha parade
but not a great number.
The progress OF the age will be exempli.

New Persian Lean.

st. Petersburg. Jan. Silt is semi-of-
ficially announced hat the government.
at the request of the government of Per-
STA and in view of the good relations be-

lied the Loan Bank of Paris to take up
the loan of 90, 500, 900 roubles about to be
issued in Persia under the designation of
the five per cent Persian gold loan of 1900.
The Loan Bank. therefore,. has contracted
to take up the loan which is %repayable n
seventy-hve years, guaranteed by all the
Persian customs receipts except the rev.
nues of the custom house Vt Ears and tn
custom houses of the Persian govern
ment. In the event Of a delay in the pay
ments the Loan Bank will hae the right
to control the custom houses Russia
guarantees the bonds of the Persian loan.

MY DEAR SIR: Permit me TO couch
this article in the form of a letter with
In view TO rid it somewhat of the charge
of egotism, since you ask me for 1.-THE
most interesting personal adventure
you Q) had during the war"
The adventure" selected, which
think has never been published in its
detail, occurred in the midst of Sher-
mans phenomenal Atlanta campaign,
that campaign of more than one
hundred days, where the most
of his men were under fire every
day, excepting about three days
rest after the confederates had de-
clined battle near Gainesville, Ca,
and crossed to the south side of the
Etowah river. That was a delicious
rest, memorable to me because Sher-
man had there brusquely and strongly
defended my temperance habit, say
ing: Let Howard alone, want an
officer who don't drink" When the
three days were ended, we pressed on
to fight in succession the battles of
New Hope Church, Dallas, PiclSets
Mill, and the skirmiShes about Pine
Top, where Bishop Polk met his sad
fate
In those engagements, with inter-
mediate moves and counter moves,
much time was consumed. After

ate general in command on June 16,
1864, fell back beyond a considerable
stream, well named Mud creek, and
stretched out his long line apparently
