Excited Much Interest.
tBy Associated Press.o

NEW YORK, Oct 1.-THE Journal OF
Commerce tomorrow will say:
Incorporation of the new Chicago.
Burlington and Quincy Railway CoEr-
pany, III. Iowa, excited unusual! Interest
in Wall Street, particularly on account
of the recent reports that plans We're
under way for the clearing up of the
Northwestern Railroad tangle. The
statement in the charter OF the new
company, that it will take over the Bur
lington system. was unexpected, in view
of the fact that the Burlington stock
was recently retired by an issue of bonds
Jointly guaranteed by tie Great North
ern and Northern Pacific. The theory
was advanced that this was only the
nucleus Of the company which would
acquire the two latter systems as well as
the Burlington.
The only information TO be had to-day,
however. was that only the Burlington
system will be acquired and that the
new company has been organized to
gather in some of the minor divisions
of that system. This was not generally
Understood. as it was difficult to see
how the expense of organizing a 500, 0o0,-
0Sg company should be incurred to simply
further consolidate Burlington proper
ties. which already are in compact form.
The earnings of the Burlington system
for the past year are nearly three-quar-
tiers of a million dollars less than the
amount necessary to pay interest on the
new bonds. The guaranteeing roads, OF
course are responsible FOR any deficiency.
BY issuing new stock for these bonds
this burden upon the Northern Pacific
and Great Northern would be removed.
and by retaining majority of the stock
of the new company. control of the Bur-
lingto., system could still be held.

LONDON, October 1.-THE hearing of

Laura jackson continued to conduct the

judge. Then, firing of her effort, Mrs.
Jackson demanded q chair, and seating
herself in q corner of the dock, interrupt

and objections, until the court ordered
her to desist. The testimony, which was
of the vlest character, related to the
indignitieS which the witness suffered at
the hands of the male prisoner, while
she was neophyte of the theocratic uni
ty, under the promise that she would
become a reincarnation of the Virgin
Mary.
The witness testified that she was fully
under the prisoners influence at the time;
that she believed his claims OF divine
parentage. Revolving practices were exer-
cised both when they were alone and In
the presence of Mrs. Jackson.
Daisy Adams spent the day on the wit

articles Of incorporation, is to acquire the
Burlington system and other roads, atad
to maintain a railroad in the States OF
Illinois. Iowa, Missouri Kansas. Nebras-s
ka, Colorado, Wyoming, South pako.l,
Montana, Wisconsin and Minnesota.
The life of the corporation began Octo-
Der 18th, 1901 and will continue for fifty
years. with the principal place of 5usi-.
ness in Burlington Iowa. It is said that
the corporation will take charge of TIA
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railway
and the many lines leased and controlled
by that company, and then transfer them
all together to the Hili-Arorgan synd,-
cate.
This new corporation is. legally. entireiy
separate from the Chicago, Burlington
and Quincy Railway Company. The cid
company is incorporated under the laws
of the State of Illinois. while the aew
corporation is controlled by the laws of
