Will Go to Bsanford Point To-day Detained in New York
 The candidates for the Columbia foot ball team which will go through their preliminary training at Branford Point under t.'e direction of Coach George Foster Sanford, are expected in New Haven this afternoon. It was the in- tention of Coach Sanford to have the men report to him yesterday but there was a delay in New York He told them emphatically to have their neces.. sdry togs with them when they started for Branford as last year much time was lost by some of, the men who were obliged to play in long trousers. negli- gee shirts, etc. Yesterday some of the men were unable to get their clothes to gether so Sanford decided to take another day.
 The candidates will be gradually rounded in shape on a field rear the Blanford Point house, which has been put in good shape for them. The whole squad will consist of about thirty men.

 GAS FOR WOODMONT.

Important Conference Held With New
 Haven Gas Company.
 A prominent Woodmont summer res ident had a long conference with the New Haven Gas company officials yes- terday regarding laying mains to Woodmont so that summer cottagers may have gas in their cottages both for illumination and for cooking pur- poses.
 There are about 200 families who cot tage at Woodmont every season, and the fact was laid before the gas com pany that if gas was available the ma : jority of these families would use 1t for cooking purposes. This would mean a decided boom in gas for the company there during the summer and early fall season, and would also afford quite a market for the gas ranges in which for a year or more the New Haven Gas company has been booming into popu- larity.
 It would require the laying of about four miles of gas main to accomplish the object. The gas company has taken the matter under consideration and the plan may be carried out early next spring, in time to become operative when the cottagers go to the shore.

WILL TRY TO RAISE S50,00O

 FOR THIS CI1Y.
Committee of Chamber of Commerce Confers With Promoters From the West-Much Impressed With the Pro- tact noon .~ .,,. ,V,a nVo.,or, Tn-Jax,

tect-Hope to Get the Money To-day.
 To-day the committee on new indus tries of the Chamber of Commerce will endeavor to raise $50,000 to be put into the capital stock of the proposed cereal company. This, following a meeting of the committee and the promoters of the new company at the Union league club yesterday
 The men who wish to locate their new cereal manufacturing company are Dr. Hand of Scranton, Pa, the well known investor of a new method of condensing milk, and Messrs. Lebar and Hamilton of Battle Creek, Mich, who have had much experience in the grain business in the west and thoroughly understand the needs of the consum mers and the advantages of an eastern location as producing center. The committee on new industries of the Chamber of Commerce is composed of R. s. Woodruff, N. W. Kendall Colonel s. J. Fox, Wilson H. Lee, and s. s. Thompson.
 These men met yesterday and dis cussed the situation very thoroughly. The committee has had the matter un der consideration for several weeks and is much impressed with the ad- vantages which are offered by the pro- motors. The business scheme has many excellent points; there is, appar- ently, the opportunity for a good in vestment in a property to be located in this city, which will add to New Ha ven's industries, give employment to many hands and In all ways tend to- ward the growth of the city.
 The members of the committee are so much impressed with the possibilities of the plan that to-day an effort will be made to raise the $50000, which the western men seek as an inducement for locating in this city. One of the mem bers said last night that he believed this sum would be pledged to-day and the location of the company in this city secured. A site has already been se- lected where the new concern may erect a substantial manufacturing plant If the project goes through.

With Hope of Finding Peary.

New York, May 24.-Information
was received in this city to-day that
the Erik, the vessel chartered by the
Peary Arctic club for its fourth ex-
pedition, would sail from Sydney, y.
s, on July 10. This will be the fifth
ship sent into the arctic regions by
the Peary club. Since March 30.
1900, when he was at Fort Conger,
no word has come from Lieut.. Peary.
1t is hoped that interpolation which
will leave on the Erik will gain some
intelligence of the explorer and will
be enabled to forward supplies 70
him The captain and crew OF the
Erik will be recruited at st. John and
will number about fourteen. 1t has
not vet been decided who will lead
the expedition. The Erik will pro-
ceed directly to Upernavik, the north
ermOst of the Danish settlements,
where it is expected that news will be
obtained through the Esquimaux OF
the expeditions.

MISSOURI PACIFIC is
TO CROSS CONTINENT.
Gould System TO be Extended to Reach
From Ocean to Ocean.
SAGE EXPLAINS THE PLAN.

New York, May 24.-Recent acq III
sitions of railroad property by Geo.
J. Gould and allied interests have
given rise to Il growing belief that
the plans for the Missouri Pacific sys-
tenn are aimed to place it in the very
forefront OF the railroad properties
OF the country. Itnow appears that
the project comprehends the connect
ing of the Atlantic and the Pacific
seabOards.
Mr.. Russell Sage said to-day that
the development of the plan for a
greater Missouri Pacific would not,
in his Judgment, develop any hostil-
tiles in the railroad situation. Every
thing, ne thought, would be AMIGA
bly, arranged
The general plan is to extend the
system from the Pacific to the Allan
tic ocean,, said Mr.. Sage. This will
doubtless take good deal OF time.
L cannot say how long"
What means do you expect the
road to take to get it's outlet to the
Atlantic seaboard?" was asked.
''That matter is in it's infancy, >
Mr.. Sage replied. Il have no doubt
the plan for the entire system will be
worked out harmoniously. In con
nection with the acquisition of Wheel
ing and Lake Erie and the line it is
to build into Pittsburg, it is proba-
BILE that short spurs OF road of fifty
or 100 or $50 miles will be built to
accommodate towns not on the main
line.
"Wi i'll the Texas Pacific be absorb
ed by the Missouri Pacific?"
Yes, said Mr.. Sage, that will
come about"

Discoveries in Africa.

Paris, May 23.-M. Lesicur, the
explorer, arrived at Bordeaux yester-
day on the steamship Vile de Maceie
after two years exploration in West
ern Africa NJ Lesicur went up the
Bonita River, whose course was pre-
viously discovered by NJ. Crampel,
He determined the course of the
Bonita and also that of the river
which Fournon visited in 1892
under the name of Tombony. NJ.
Lesicur says this is really the River
Campo. He describes the country as
marvellous, producing great quanti-
ties of India rubber and ivory. The
natives were hospitable. Lesicur es-
tablished a commercial station on
the Lower Bonita.
