GAS COMBINATION DENIED.

The recent large advance in the market price Of
the stock OF the Consolidated Gas Company and the
Brooklyn Union Gas Company has not unnaturally
been accompanied by persistent reports that these
two great properties the supplying all tho gas
other producing all the gas consumed in Brooky n,
would be combined into company, which
would manufacture at the new plant at Astoria
the gas required for the two boroughs; combina-
ton which il has been believed would be especially
easy ot arrangement. from the fact that Standard
Oh interests control both the Consolidated and the
Brooklyn Union
The runors Of amalgamaton, however. were au-
thoritat;vey denied yesterday by leading interests
in the Consolidated Gas Company, as they have
several times in the past been denied.

INITIATING THEIR RIDING TACTICS.

London. April 13.-The friends of the American
Jockeys In England far badly disap-
pointed al the seasons work Not a single Ameri-
can appeared at Leicester yesterday. l., Reiff has
lost fifteen out Of twenty races ]. Ref thirty-one
out Of thirty-sx and Maher sixteen out OF twenty.
These failures are variously attributed TO the fact
that most of the English jockeys have adopted the
American style of riding to the immature condi-
ton of the American mounts
One of the interesting results of the American
invasion is the appearance on the turf OF q new
racing saddle with sliding stirrups. which Is war
rantsd to give Jockey American seat without
effort on his part The stirrup straps work on
much the same principle as the shaped American m m
suspender fasteners, and the inventor OF the new
saddle claims that IT automa tically changes the
riders weight from front to rear and vice versa:
