TO CONTROL COAL OUTPUT.
Nanderbilts Control Delaware and
Hudson, and VIII Transfer to
New York Central.

New York, April S.-The World will say
tomorrow:
The Vanderbilts have secured control
of the Delaware and Hudson Railroad by
the purchase of a majority of the capital
stock in the open market and terms are
being discussed on which the New York
Central will take control.
1t is understood that the New York Gem
trail is to guarantee per cent. to the
stockholders, and it is not improbable
that the Lake Shore deal will be exactly
duplicated-that is. New York Central
will issue 31z per cent. 1OO-year collateral
trust gold bonds at the rate of $500 in
bonds for each share in stock.
1t was impossible yesterday to get any
official statement regarding the change of
control. though Wall street has known for
several months that the Vanderbilts have
been heavy buyers of the stock.
By the purchase of Delaware and Hud-
son, the Vanderbilts have made an i'm
portant step in j. P. Morgans plans to
control the anthracite coal output. The
Delaware and Hudson Company produces
from it's own mines over 100000 tons of
anthracite coal. The Vanderblts and Mr..
Morgan now practically own the coal
business.

Casting THE BOOMERANG"
story of the Play the Dramatic Club
Is 20 Present.

Story of the Play the Dramatic Club
Is 20 Present.
The play for the benefit of the Ogle-
thorpe monument fund, that the Dramatic
Club will present at the Theater Monday
night, is one of the big successes that
came, during his busy lifetime, from the
versatile pen of Augustin DAILY.
The play. known as Seven Twenty
Eight" has for its subtitle Casting the
Boomerang" which comes nearer being
descriptive of it's motive. The action of
the fist two acts is laid in country home
in Central New York; that of the last
two acts in the city.
Courtney Corliss, perhaps the leading
character in the play. is provided with a
theory, to the effect that every man in
his life casts a boomerang, which re-
turns to floor him." Translated into less
ambitious language, the young gentleman
more or less serious, and that the conse-
quences come back upon him.
= The action of the play, through its
four acts, exempifies the truth of this
theory. Old Mr.. Bargiss falls a victim to
his vanity and his pride in some literary
productions of very doubtful merit; Mrs
Bargiss, shining efiulgent in her husband
reflected glory, sends to the printer a col
lection of the verses he has sent to her
during their courtship, which she has
published, without his knowledge, under
his name. 1t turns out that the poems
have been lifted by the lovelom, but in
genious Bargiss, from the collected
works of Shakespeare, Scot, Byron and
some other minor celebrities. Corliss,
himself. searching and finding the orig
inal Of the portrait numbered ''728," in
the catalogue of the National Academy,
seeks to test the temper and try the at
tributes of that young woman and finds
himself "boomeranged."
The rest of the action is supplied by
bucolic young man. son-in-law to Bargiss,
rejoicing in the name of Hollyhock and
wife as sentimental as he is matter or
fact, the wife, Mrs Hollyhock, and a
shrewd, smooth and seedy individual, who
calls himself Professor Gasleigh and has
established magazine, known as Scat
tered Leaflets" and intended as a refuge
for the outcasts of the pen. He takes
Bargiss into the refuge and gracious!y
permits him to contribute to the fund for
keeping the Scattered Leaflets" together.
The play has been well cast and re-
hearsals have been steadily in progress.
1t is hoped by the management that
distinct dramatic triumph will be achiev-
ed.
The box Office at the Theater will be
opened for the reservation of seats to-
morrow morning. The tickets that have
already been sold may then be exchanged
for seats without any additional cost.
The advance sale of tickets warrants the
belief that the audience will be one OF
the largest of the season.

Turnkey BrantIey Was Charged
with Not Counting Prisoners.

Turnkey BrantIey Was Charged
with Not Counting Prisoners.
Turnkey ]. r. Brantley will not get the
s. that he was fined after the investiga-
ton by Mayor Myers of the escape of the
burglar James Small from the police sta
ton house.
The story of the negro's escape was
made public for the first time In the
Morning News yesterday. Small stated
to q representative of the Morning News
In Charleston that he walked out Of the
prison when Turnkey O'Keefe was on
duty, and gave the hour of his departure.
Up TO that time 1t had not been proven
q what hour the prisoner got away. Both
OF the turkeys were fined by the Mayor,
and when II became known that Brantley
was not on duty al that time II was be-
leved In some circles that the fine would
be RENTED.
supt Reilly said yesterday that abe
Mayor had fined Brantley for failing to
count the number OF prisoners turned over
to him by OKeefe, and not because he
had been convicted of allowing a prisoner
to escape. Another effort will be made
to have Small brought 10 this city for
trial before he Is given a hearing In
Charleston.

For UNWILLING JULY 21.
sculptor Trying to Complete McLaws
and Barlow Busts by That Time.


md Barlow Busts by That Time.
1t is the wish and hope of the McLaws-
Barlow Monument Committee that the
bronze busts of the two genrals shall be
unveiled on July 81, next, the anniversary
of the battle of Manassas, in which first
great conflict of the war between the
states Gen. Barlow offered up his heroic
life.
This wish of the committee is heartily
concurred in by Mr. George Julian Zolnay.
the sculptor TO whom the work of max
ing the bronze busts that are to adorn the
columns has been confided. His enthus-
iasm in the matter is evidenced by the
Following letter, received from Mr.. Zolnay
by Capt. d. G. Purse, the chairman of the
Monument Committee.
The photos, pictures, papers and your
kind letter came on Saturday and l thank
you for your military precision of doing
things. / have just started the sketches
this morning and am full of enthusiasm
Whether it will be possible TO have the
bronzes ready for July q, l cannot say
now, but l am positive that the plaster
models will be ready before that time and
the unveiling could take place at all
events. l could bronze these models ana
they could stay in place until replaced
by the bronze casts. OF course | shall do
my very best to have the bronzes on time,
but oil depends upon how busy the found
ries will be. l shall keep you posted with
the progress of the work"
The committee appreciates very highly
Mr.. Zolnays enthusiasm and evident pur-
pose to advance the work in every way
possible but it is doubtful if they could
be induced to accept his offer to have the
plaster models bronzed and unveiled. IN
the event the bronze casts are not ready
by July 2l While the committee is anx-
ious to have the cermony of unveiling
take place on the day named, they would
prefer postponing it to the alternative that
would necessitate the exposure of Mr..
Zolnay's valuable models to the weather
for any length of time. They value too
highly these works of art
Fourthermore the committee has no in
tention of attempting to hurry the sculp-
tor in the completion of the work. 1t Is
anxious that the completed casts be
everything that they should be, and Is
confident that Mr.. Zolnay will make them
just as soon as is consistent with
good work. If he cannot have the busts
completed and cast and in position by
July q, the committee will be sorry but
that's all.
Mr.. Zolnay will make one or more trips
to Savannah, after the completion of
miniature models of the busts for the pur-
pose of hearing the criticisms of the fami-
lies and friends of Gen. Barlow and Gen.
McLaws With these criticisms and sug-
gestions to assist him. he will then begin
upon the larger models from which the
casts are to be made.

COTTON MILL FOR WASHINGTON.
The Old Fertilizer Building to Be
Used for the Factory.


Washington, Ca, April at now looks
as If Washington is to have a cotton fac
tory. Mr.. James A. Benson, proprietor
Of the Excelsior Manufacturing Compa-
ny and one of the wealthiest citizens of
the city, is at the head of the movement,
and his interest and ability bespeak much
in favor of the enterprise. 1t is proposed
by him to utilize his large fertilizer
building, which is now vacant as ba-
sis, and build about it or make such adj
ditions as may be necessary for the new
machinery. Mr. r. Nj. Oats, one Of the
largest cotton mill men in Charlotte, N.
c., has been the guest of Mr.. Benson for
the past few days looking over the stu
alton. He has expressed the opinion
that a cotton factory could be erected
according to Mr.. Benson's plans at a
Comparatively small cost, and could cas-
nv be put on a paying basis.
About fifty negroes left yesterday for
Gainesville where they will secure work
in building houses for a large cotton mill.
There is a great deal of moving among
negroes of this county, which will cause
a scarcity Of farm labor.

tice Of the Supreme Court Is spending a

AUGUSTA BY MOONLIGHT.
Risins-MiIIs and Electric Light
Plant Shut Down.

Augusta, Ga, April 3.-The Savannah
river is on a boom, but no fears are en-
tertained of water high enough to enter
the city In the past six or eight years
the streets along the river have been
raised SO much that it takes a very high
river to cause freshet.
The water is sufficiently high, however,
to cause the shutting down of mills and
electric light plants that are operated by
water power. But for the fortunate pres
ence of themo on, Augustus streets would
be in darkness. At midnight the river
was nearly 80 feet, and slowly rising
about an inch an hour.

WHITES ARE JUST TO NEGROES.
Gov. Sanford Replies to Inquiries of
Michigan Students.

Montgomery, Ala, April 3.-In answer
to COMMUNICATIONS from students of the
agricultural college of Michigan, Gov.
Sanford wrote them in part as follows as
to federal control of elections:
I'm my judgment federal control OF
elections would not aid the negro in the
exercise of his rights as a citizen, but
on the contrary would seriously retard his
progress.
1.-THE white people of the South are just
with the negroes and treat them humane
" and kindly; are genrous with them in
the distribution of the school funds and
are liberal with them in all business
transactions. The negro pays per cent
of the taxes of Alabama and receives AZ
per cent. of the public school fund"
