APRIL FOOL JOKE.
No Truth i'm the Runner of a Big
Railroad combination.

New York, April Z. 49, There is no
truth in the report that J. p. Morgan,
William X. Vanderbilt, James j. Hill,
Edward II. Hartman, George J.Gould,
John D.. Rockefeller. Jacob II. Schiff
and James Stillman are planning the
formation of a New Jersey corporation
TO take over the control of the stocks
of the Burlington, Northern Pacific.
Erie and Great Northern roads. nor Is
there any truth in the further report
hat this relatively insignificant trans
action is the precursor OF a plan to
bring all the railway systems of the
country under one control. Two Of
the interests mentioned above reported
the m as preposterous. Some Of
the others refuse TO discuss 1t at all
on the ground that ii was simply a
wild hoax, put out on all fools day in
New Jersey. and was a trile belated
in reaching this city.

that ditch with capital furnished by an
American syndicate. called on Presi-
dent Mckinley yesterday afternoon.
The ostensible purpose Of the visit or
these two railway presidents was TO
consult the chief executive about the
details of his trip across the continent
from the Pacific coast via their respec-
tive lines. If the subject of building
the canal with American capital was
taken up neither Mr.. Hill, Mr.. La
mont or anybody in authority TO speak
for the president would talk about 1t.
Inasmuch, however, as the original
story about the intention OF Messrs.
Mill, Lamont and Morgan TO call on
the president in regard TO the n
fixed the time of their visit Thursday,
1t is believed that the subject was dis
cussed at some length.

mand fresh troops be sent To the front

The Pretoria correspondent of the

not to be confident of an early ter
mination of hostilities. nor to believe
the stories that the Beers are tired OF
war. He says: "It becomes daily
more evident that the Beers intend to
tight to a finish. Many are surrender
ing, but they are men of no standing.
The real fighting men are still on
commando, and although the recently
successful British operations tend to
bring the end nearer, 1t is evident that
the Beers must be completely crushed
before a general surrender is proba-
ble."

Under influence Of

st. Louis. April 7. - A remarkable
thing occurred at the city hospital
last night while the surgeons were
operating Upon Mrs. Ida Knight Of
GEL School street. While under the in
uence of chloroform and while the
surgeons knife was busy in an opera
ton for a tumor, she suddenly began
to whistle, although to all practical
purposes she was thoroughly under
the influence of the anaesthetic. She
whistled the "Miserere" from I'll
Trovatore" distinctly and without a
flaw, and at the completion Of the
tune became quiet. At intervals dur
ing the operation she would whistle
sketches from the opera. After re-
gaining consciousness she said that
she coul not remember having
thought Of the opera or anything while
under the influence Of the chloroform.
