PHIPPs DESERTS CARNEGIE.
Break In the Friendly Relations Be-
tween the Steel Kings.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Feb. u.-One of the
sensational developments of the expected
suit of H. c.. Prick against the Carnegie
Steel company, limited, is the report that
Henry Phipps Jr., the second largest
stakeholder in the company, has broken
the business relations with Mr. Carnegie
Which have been exceptionally close dur
ing the latter's business life The two
steel kings have been associated since
boyhood and their interests have been
Identical, not only in a business way, but
in their philanthropic work and social
standing. The announcement of the
breach will therefore be surprise In the
steel world. Mr.. Phipps owned II per
cent of the capital stock of the COM
pany, which is more than the holdings of
any other one stockholder except Mr..
Carnegie.
1t is said Mr.. Phfpps alone stands as
the only partner whose signature is not
attached to the famous iron-clad agree
ment. The reason for this is not known
to the public; but the important omis-
sion, it is said, will be seized upon by Mr..
Prick as one of the strongest arguments
in his efforts to have the celebrated docu-
| ment broken, his contention being that
| the agreement cannot be binding when
one of the largest stockholding partners
name is not attached.
David Watson, who drew up the paper,
| will be one Of the leading lawyers en-
ployed by Mr.. Friek to break it and the
| arguments put forth to this end by him
self and Attorney John G. Johnson, of
| Philadelphia, promise to be very interest
| ing to the entire business world
The Post tomorrow will say:
| The earning capacity of the Carnegie
! company will not enter into the settle
ment with H. c. Prick, If the contention
of Mr. Carnegie's attorneys is approved
| by the courts. In outlining the defense,
| one of the attorneys asserted that the
| book valuation referred to in the IRON
| clad agreement has nothing to do with
the profits. 1t simply represents the value
| of the plants, stock, bills receivable,
money on hand, etc, at the date of the
last inventory, less the liabilities of the
concern. 1t does not allow a cent ex-
ira for the stock as money maker; in
| other words, the attorney held, Mr..
Frick could not discount the future.
The counsel said the law governing
| limited partnerships will prove an eff
fective weapon for the defense. The COM
pany has never, it is asserted, been an
Incorporated concern, and It's stock is
not subject to fiuctuation in values. =:

GEN. BuLLER DOUBTFUL.
He Regards Relief of Ladysmith as
FOrlorn Hope.

He Regards Relief of Ladysmith as
Forlorn Hope.
LONDON, Feb. 12.-Winston Churchill
sends from Frere Camp to the Morning
Post a long review Of the situation. He
says:
Gen. Butler always thought 1t impos-
sible to hold the triangle of Natal north
of the Tugela, but the initial mistake
was made owing to the miscalculation
of the Boer strength and the fact that
millions worth Of stores had been col
lected at Ladysmfth. From the first he
regarded the relief of Ladysmith as o.
forlorn- hope He did not feel justified
in ordering subordinate to perform
such a doubtful task.
THE absence of good maps has cost
much trouble. An attempt to thrust the
enemy back from the Brakfontein or
and since at least two brigades must
keep the road open behind US too much
would have been left on the way to Lady
smith Moreover, Gen. Butler remembers
that his army is the only army for the
defense of the rest of Natal. Therefore
he decided to withdraw and to try else
where.
Another fierce attempt will be made TO
force the Tugela. Great Britain must
realize the fact that the relief of Lady
smith would strain an army Of $4,000 and
that 100000 men would not be too many.
The country, therefore, must be prepared
for heavy loss and perhaps for disap
pointment.
Remembering that considerations of
honor rather than of policy demand eff.
forts to relieve Ladysmith the whole
army regards Gen. Butler with sympathy
and trust, such as are seldom seen in
fortunate cases.
1.-THE protection of the rest of Natal is
an important consideration The neces-
sty of obtaining control of Delagoa bay
is very apparent. The ingress OF foreign
ers and war material is ceaseless. Sure
ly a settlement with Portugal would only
be question of money"

Congressman Sulzer, in an Interview
tonight, said: The remedy for the trust
evil is simple one; enforce the present
laws. There is no lack of laws to deal
properly with this question, but there is

there lies the whole truth.
j. r. Sovereign, former master work

evil will find corrective. in itself to a
large extent. DISQUALIFICATION and re-

CASS LAKE TOWNSHIP
SECTION 10 IN QUICK
TIME
CAN NOW GIVE CLEAR TITLES


Spectators 1t Was Feared Might
Keep the Question I'm the Air for
Some. Time - Action Also AlIays
the Fears of Indians.
DULUTH, Feb 1.-THE Cass Lake
Land company, owner of the site of Cass
lake, in section Is, has obtained its patent
for the land, and it was recorded yester-
day in the office of the register of deeds
able incident in the history of Cass Lake
that has been announced in long time.
The townsite company can now give UNI
questioned title to the property.
The patent for the land in section 10
was forwarded to the land office at st.
Cloud, and from there was transmitted
to the company at Cass Lake. When the
land was sold last fall it was predicted
that, owing to the contests that were in
augurated by spectators, it would be
years before. a patent would issue, but
the patent has issued and is now Of rec
ord
1t is seldom that patents are issued SO
soon after the entry of government land.
People familiar with the situation that
exists in the case of the Cass Lake town
site in Is say that the land department
showed good policy by acting promptly,
as the Indians were disturbed over re-
ports that, the proceeds of the sale were
to be placed in the tribal fund, and that
the land, after all, might go to some
speculator or script entryman, in which
event the transaction would not yield
them cent.
While the Indians were disturbed, and
it was good policy to allay their fears
by prompt action, the rumors were
groundless. People fGmiliar with the sit
uation understood that If the townsite
could be scripped the entire reser-
walton could be scripped in the same
manner and the Indians left without
either land, timber or money. The In
dams, however, could not be made to
understand the situation thoroughly, and
the reports disturbed them a great deal.
Their fears have been set aside by the
issuance of the patent.

PRICE OF SUGAR.

Is Keeping 1t UD,

Horace c. Earle, Minneapolis repre-
sentative of the American Sugar Refining
company. returned yesterday after a
months absence in New York and other
Eastern points. He said:
Before 1 left New York there had
been sharp advance in sugar. This was
due primarily to the action of Cuban and
Puerto Rico planters in Withholding ship
ments In hopes that congress will pass
the bill reducing the duty on sugar. The
presence Of the plague in Hawaii at a
time when sugar Is usually being moved
has also helped the price upward. Hold
ers of sugar trust stock are on the
anxious seat at present, owing to the
EVowed intention of Havermeyer to cut
the price in two and declare a dividend
Of 6 per cent.
