MORGAN'S LATEST
WILL NOW CONSOLIDATE BIG SHIP
PING LINES.
LEYLAND LINE PURCHASED.
WILL HAVE LARGEST TONNAGE IN
THE WORLD.

The Leyland, Now One of Great Brit
VIII BE Consolidated with the
Atlantic Transport Lane, Already
Controlled by Morgan a Co.-The
Consolidation Likely to Have a
Disastrous Effect on British Ship
ping Interests-The LeyIand OFF,
cials Confirm the Sale.
London, April 29.-The first step in the
direction of the consolidation of some of
the biggest transatlantic shipping in
terests has been accomplished by the pur-
chase by j. Pierpont Morgan & Co. of
the Leyland Line of steamers. A deposit
on the purchase money has been paid.
A representative of the Associated
Press learned that the purchase of the
Leyland Line is tantamount to it's con-
solidation with the Atlantic Transport
Line
For the present the Leyland Line will
retain it's name and be under the same
management, though changes in the di-
rectorate are likely to occur shortly.
President Baker of the Atlantic Trans
port Line said to the representative of
the Associated Press:
although the Leyland Line has been
purchased by the Morgans, 1 am not yet
at liberty nor indeed. fully in a posi-
ton to discuss the arrangements pro-
jected. Beyond the purchase, nothing will
be settled until l return from the United
States in June"
The result of the projected consolidation
will be a steamship company with the
largest tonnage of any company in the
world
The officials of the Leyland Line, in
confirming the sale, told a representative
of the Associated Press that official
statement will be issued from the head
office of the line at Liverpool tomorrow.
will receive fla los. for each flo share.
The Leyland Line, whose fleets will
thus pass into the control of Americans,
is one of Great Britain's greatest ship
ping institutions, far exceeding the Pc
ninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation
Company in tonnage and Importance.
An Extensive shipping Interest.
The report of the Leyland line for 1870,
just issued, says the purchase of the West
Indian and Pacific Steamship Company
has been completed. The company now
owns upward OF SO per cent of the capital
of the Wilson and the Furness-LeyIand
lines
Steamers of the value of 100000 were
recently added to the joint fleets. The di-
rectors declared a dividend of 6 per cent.
on ordinary shares and set aside $4,000
to the account Of the reserve fund
When Soma months ago was SIIey-
gested that the line was likely TO pass
into the hands of the Atlantic Transport
people, much comment followed in regard
to the effect it would have on other Brit
ish lines as ii was generally felt in ship
ping circles that any such wide-reaching
shipping amasamation, in close toucn
with American railroads, would have Sc
rious consequences for lines outside the
combination.

out the statement made by Express Mes

saying he could get me a job I came
here and found that Jordan had lost his
job as baggagemaster on the Southwest

wife was suing me for alimony in Jack

salary every month. That is why I left
there. Up 10 the time of going with the

had been as clear as that of any man.
My people live in North Carolina, but
do not care to speak of them or their
whereabouts.
I'VE jumped off the train while 1t wag
going twenty miles an hour Both of us
were knocked unconscious. We were
about six miles from Macon. l gained
consciousness first, and looked about for
Jordan. l found him and thought he
was dead. 1t was at least ten minutes
before I could get him to breathe. We
were so bewildered we took the opppo-
site direction from Macon. We thought
If we came back to Macon we would
never be suspected"
Jordan is a Macon man and was for
merly a baggagemaster on the South
