dated by Financial Company.
NEW YORK, September 20.-The
Journal of Commerce says:
1t has been learned from an author
itative source that important plans for
the practical consolidation of direction
of the entire Vanderbilt system of rail-
roads are in course of preparation.
These plans include the formation of a
new parent company. 1t will be en-
tirely a financial company and will be
the holder of stock OF the subsidiary
companies. No name has yet been Sc
lected for the proposed parent COM
pany, but The New York Central
Company seems to be that most gem
orally favored.
The exact status of the plan is as
follows: w. K. Vanderbilt has given
considerable study to the practical con-
solidation on the lines proposed, and
at his suggestion Edward V. W. Rossi-
ter, treasurer of the New York Central
Railroad Company, and H Mex.
Twombly. director whose opinion is
particularly valued by Mr. Vanderbilt,
have been for some time at work on a
skeleton plan. When this has received
Mr.. Vanderbilt's approval it will then
be worked out in greater detail and be
placed formally before the board OF
directors. 1t is evident, therefore, that
the plan of control can in no measure
be accepted as an established fact, but
the information already given is inn
portant as indicating the general drift
of the coming developments IN the
community of interest plan of railroad
operation.

NEW YORK, September 20-After a
minute deploring the death of Presi-
dent Mckinley and extending the
boards sympathy to Mrs. Mckinley had
been recorded, President Louis Lewis,
of the Excise commission of Newark,
n. j.. offered the following anti-anar-
ehistic resolution, which was unanl-
mously adopted:
Whereas it has come to the notice
of the board of excise that certain sa-
loon keepers of this city have been
guilty of permitting anarchists to as
semble in their places of business and
make speeches against the head of our
nation. therefore be it
Resolved, That any saloon keeper in
this city who shall be charged by the
police with harboring anarchists or
permitting them to hold meetings in
their places of business and make
speeches against the government and
the good order of the community shall
be deemed not to be the KIND of persons
to conduct a business of this character,
and any person guilty of such an Of
Tense shall suffer the revocation of his
license and be barred from again re-
ceiving license to do business in this
city

THE SUBSIDY FALLACY.

The English parliamentary commit
tee which has been taking testimony
on the subject of foreign steamship
subsidies from whose reports the advo-
Gates of steamship subidy in the Unit
ed States have taken come crumbs or
comfort. had as its star witness Sir Will
liam Ward, British Con.cl General at
Hamburg. Among other things he tes-
titled that in re,ent years British gods
70 a considerable extan. hli hcea car
via Hamburg to East Africa, instead
Of being shipped direct. 1t was the gen.
erai opinion that the quantity OF Brit
ish goods shipped from Hamburg to Mo-
roco. the LeYant and China and Japan,
had also increased during the last ten
years, and the shipment OF British
goods from the United Kingdom via
Bremen to East Africa, East Asia and
Australia was also believed to have in
creased. He was not sure OF the reason
aut he thought it was the German sub
sidy that gave the Germans this ad-
vantage, there being no direct British
lines to these ports.
This Thought" of Sir Williams has
been extensively quoted by the advo-
Gates of a ship subsidy bill in the Unit
ID States, but the fact that Sir William
has another think" coming TO him is
pointed ont by the New York Journal
of Commerce The German steamship
fines from Hamburg are not subsidized,
while the reason that British steamship
lines cannot compete is because of the
exaetions of the British shipping trust.
Sir Williams statement viewed in the
light of the facts is really strong
argument against ship subsidy in me
United States. which would simply ere
ate the most gigantic shipping trust in
the world.
None of Germany's advancement in
shipping can be traced to subsidies
The Hamburg-American and the Cos
mos lines, highly successful concerns
are not subsidized The German steam
ers coming TO American ports are not
subsidized. They gel agout s35O,O00 a

mittee proposing that in view Of the

his reply to the Democratic chairman s

Dick like many other political ghouls
of the Republican party, who are en-
deayoring to turn the assassination of
President Mckinley to their own dirty
political advantage, was guilty of play
ing this contemplate piece of politics
he said
III 1t seems best to your committee to
withdraw from antagonizing those prin-
ciples and TO cease from further advocacy
of political doctrines which the President
has always believed to be perilous to the
prosperity of the entire country, We shall
be very glad indeed to be advised to that
effect, and to have your cooperation
hereafter In the maintenance of more
wholesome public politics."
For infinite gall and even a larger
share of bad taste commend us to
Chairman Dick. Mr. Bryans Com
moner says:
1t is a small man who would attempt to
turn a great national sorrow into little
partisan advantage. The assault upon
the President, dastardly as it was. does
not change the character of public ques-
lions. Imperialism is just as un-Ameri-
can as it was before and the trusts are
just as menacing to every legitimate in
dustry. State issues have been as little
affected as national ones. The necessity
for reform in taxation and for the better
control of corporations is just as impera-
tive as 1t would have been had no an
archlst attacked the President. The peo-
pie must vote on these questions.

EXECUTIVES WHO DIED IN OFFICE

Thomas Jefferson once made the re-
mark. which has since become famous
that Few Federalists ever die in office
and none resign"
Since Jefferson's day some sad his
tory has proven anything but the truth
of this sarcasm. All of the five Pres
idents who have met their death
through disease or murder during their
incumbency have been members OF the
party which continues in some degree
tbe traditions of the old Federalists.
Two of them have been Wings and
three of them Republicans In ali our
national history there is no instance
where a Democratic chief magistrate
has died in Office.
Another interesting fact in this con-
nection, pointed out by the New YORK
Mail and Express, is that the Federal
lists successors. the Wings and the Re-
publicans. invariably suffered by the
passing of the vacant Office to the Vice
President.
THE Wings elected only two Presidents
during their party existence. Each died In
office. Harrison giving way to Tyler one
month after his Inauguration. and Iayior
TO Fillmore one year after his inaugura-
ton? Tyler proved to be disguised
Democrat and Fillmore was more
Northern man with Southern principles
than he was a veritabe Wing.
.Lincoln's successor. Andrew jackson,
was elected as war Democrat, but in
office he proved himself a Democrat with
out qualification. The entire Republican
party was shortly arrayed against him.
as the entire Wing party had been ar
rayed against Tyler. Chester A. Arthur
has been the only Vice President who
upon his,accidental accession to the pres
ldency has made his administration rep
resentative of the party that put him
there.
Another singular circumstance is that
three of the FIVE Presidents who have
died in office have been Ohio men-the
elder Harrison. Garfield, McKinley-and
that three of the five Vice-Presidents who
have succeeded them have been New York

George w. Grapes and Charles Saville,

that wild turkeys are expensive eat

were fined in Justice Maloney's court
s25 and costs each for this offense.
che magistrate also imposed fine of

squirrel it was quite expensive.

he was about TO make as deputy game
warden for this county.
