ton Combine to SuppIant
Railway Pooling.

New York, Jan. S.-The different
sections of the United States have
been divided into zones and certain
bankers and railway magnates will
have spheres of usefulness in each
zone, operating the various transport
tation lines as a harmonious whole.
This plan is being carried out to sup
plant railway pooling, which the
United States court has decided to be
illegal, with system of control which
will be far more rigid in maintaining
carrying charges. w. X. Vanderbilt
has conceived this idea and, with the
assistance of other magnates, is grad
ually evolving the greatest railway
trust the world has ever known. The
trunk line combination is now almost
ready to be launched. In the South
ern Pacific zone Coils p. Huntington
win be master. e. II. Hartman will
control the central western, or Union
Pacific zone; the Goulds, H. II. Por-
ter and others will swing the south
western lines, through the Rock
Island, Missouri Pacific, etc. In the
northwest James j. Hill and j. p.
Morgan will control the Northern Pa
eific and Great Northern. The Bel
monts will control the Louisville d.

ITALY AGREES.
She Acquiesces in the Proposal of the
United States for the "Open
Door" Policy.

Washington, Jan. 5. Italy has
agreed to the ''open door" policy with
reference to China.
1t is learned that although Italy was
the last of the powers addressed to
return an answer to Secretary Hays
overtures that government really was
more prompt than any other in the
negotiations. This is explained by the
fact that the italian government was
addressed on the subject some time
after the other continental nations
had it under consideration owing to
the fact that our ambassador, Mr..
Draper, was away from his post on
leave of absence in the United States
when the identical note of instruc-
tons was sent out, and it was regard
ed as best TO make no departure from
the rule which had been adopted in
the case of the other governments, of
addressing them through the United
States representatives at the foreign
capitals. Immediately upon Mr.. ORA
per's return to Rome, at not
distant date in the past, he laid the
which, therefore, has acted with
more prompteness than most of the
other powers. The agreements have
not yet been reduced to their final
form, but the state department will
now enter upon the task of putting
them into the shape of precis, and as
in each case the agreement to the
principles involved in our invitation
is returned in unequivocal terms, ac-
cording to the department officials,
it is not anticipated that any diff
Guilty will be experienced in accom-
plishing this work satisfactorily.
Pending that outcome the state de-
partment does not intend to make any
statement for the public as to the eX-
act terms of the agreements, though
il is admitted that the ground has
been covered with unusual accuracy
in the press reports up to this point.

MICHIGAN LEGISLATURE.
House and Senate Vote to Adjourn on
Saturday-NOthinGA Accomplished
i'm Special Session.

Lansing, Mich, Jan. 5.-The house
Thursday adopted a resolution TO adj
iourn finally on Saturday. The senate
will concur. Nothing has been accom-
plished by the special session, ma
jority of the senators being decidedly
opposed to the taxation and other meas
ures urged by Gov. Pingree. The house
Thursday noon killed the municipal
street railway ownership joint resolu-
ton. The vote was 81 ayes, So noes. 1t
required a two-thirds vote.
The senate concurred in the resolu-
ton fixing final adjournment on Sat-
urday. No business will be transacted
after to-day noon. The senate referred
the house specific mining tax bill to its
committee on banks and corporations.
This is regarded as a final disposal of
that measure.
The house Friday afternoon by reso-
luton requested Gov. Pingree TO send
in a special message under which the
Legislature can appropriate money to
relieve Ingham county of a portion of
the expense of the grand jury investi-
cation and the trials that will follow.

GEARS MAN WINS.
His Candidate for Speaker of iowa
House OF Representatives Re-

Dies Moines, Ia, Jan. S.-The repub-

mated DIR. d. III. Bowen, of Alamakee
county, for speaker of the house. He
received 43 votes to 3s for W.. L. Eaton,
of Mitchell county, the candidate of
the Cummins wing. The battle was
one of the most hotly contested in
Iowa politics in many years, and the
result, it is held, makes it almost GER
tain that Senator Gear win be reflect
ed to the United States senate, as it is
admitted that half dozen Gear men
voted for Mr.. Eaton to redeem pledges
made before the senatorial contest got
entangled with the speakership. The
caucus vote indicates that Senator
Gear has close to so votes in the house
and at least rs in the senate. This
would put his total vote on joint bal
Tot at IS, comfortable majority.

He fairly sprinted out Lee street and
took to the swamps with Glawson and

Through the swamps above the city
they went, wading creeks and tearing
through thickets, the hound following
the trail gamely. Brown turned and
