This announcement was made yester-
day by prominent officer Of one Of the

with headquarters in Bal imore, have had
engineers at work at various points along

water going over the falls could be used
to generate elec rlcity.
Much money has been spent / n this
work, and within the past month tho

nounce it perfectly feasible for stations
located at Peach Bottom and Conowingo

ave shall do you the same we are
doing to Mr., Bianchi, but to you
may be worse yet.
On the same day that Edison and
Smith received their letters, Blanchi

read: What is happening to you
now is only sample of what we
have in stock for you. The fun will
be when your family are back home.
We use you 10 show others that we
mean business. If we make you
the scapegoat you shall thank your

ADAMS CAUGHT
MAPPING.

New York, May est has been ascer-
tained from source which leaves no
doubt as to the accuracy Of the informa.
ton that the director Of the Northern Pa.
CiflO Railway who was found short OF
that stock In tho panic Of May 0 was aone
other than Edward d. Adsms, member
Of the Executive Committee OF the North.
srn Pacific Railway Company and the
representative In this country of the
Deutsch Bank.
1t seems Utmost ironical that Mr.. Adams
should have been caught short of North.
srn Pacific. for he was undoubtedly q
believer In tho property, though not per-
haps in the prices at which Its stock was
selling. Tho reorganization plan which
led TO the reorganization of the old North
ern Pacific and the creation of the present
corporation was mapped out by Mr..
Adams, though the rehabilitation Of the
company WAS carried through by j. p.
Morgan & Co. and the Mercantile 4 rust
Company.
MORGAN ANGRY.
There Is no means Of verifying what
followed. but according to reports which
reached tho city to day from London Mr..
Morgan was very angry upon learning
that Mr.. Adams had sold his en-
tire holdings to the Union Pacific inter.
ests, by means Of which the control Of ,

Mr. Morgan Is said to have made q
charge Of treacbsry against the seller of
the stock, and upon finding that Mr..
Adams in addition to dioposing of his
holding was likewise short In the MARKET
his Indignation was alinos5 beyond
bounds. Wiser counssls prevailed. how
ever, and after the first burst of anger
Mr.. Morgan permitted Mr.. Adams to
settle on the same basis as other shorts.
Even at that 1t was dear euough ex-
perisnce, for If the stock was sold ut
about 10. as 10 beloved, the settlement
price at i50 involved a payment Of $50 o
share or from $500. 900 to $42O, 900 on five
to seven thousand shares. The stock has
been sold for Mr.. Adams principally by
large Broadway stock exchange house.
When tho corners was clio ed Mr.. Adams
was on the ocean. The situation OF his
brokers with Northern Pacific ct $1,000
share was, to say tho least. trying
At this juncture. according to the st0r-
les, Mr.. Adams representatives here
sought Mr.. Baker. OF the first National
Bank, and induced him to undertake the
negotiations for a settlement. Mr., Baker
did oil that was possible in the matter,
but 1t 10 stated that he found the Nor

The case was therefore, according to
