New York, oct. 1.-The following de-
tails concerning the organization of
the International Steamship combina-
ton were made public by j. p. Morgan
& Co.. to-day:
1.-THE International Navigation Com
pany, which controlled the American
Line and Red Star Line of steamships,
has changed its title to the Internal
tional Mercantile Company, and in
creased its capital from $i5,000,000 to
$120, 900 900, half of this amount being
represented by preferred shares, and
the other half by common shares. There
is also an authorized issue of $4,000
zoe of Az per cent. bonds. These d.
reetors and committees have been
named:

and Charles y. Torrey.
Mr.. Griscom, head of the Internal
tional Navigation Company, is to be
president of the combination. The new
combination will embrace the American
Line, the Red Star Line. the Leyland
Line, the White Star Line and the At
lantic Transport Line. as well as one or
two other companies"
Charles Steele, who spoke for Nor
gan & Co, in the foregoing details said
there would be no public vending or
sale of the stock of the company, those
directly interested having subscribed
for the entire amount
There will be no holding or securities
company in connection with the new
combination.
1t is a known fact that syndicate
charged with the financing details of
the combination was formed some
months ago. Trustworthy reports also
have it that a special underwriting

syndicate, II is believed, has already
paid two instruments, each Of Is per

this amount was paid in by the Ameri-
can interests identified with the com-
bination, so that control of the bonds
will lodge here.

heart talk with the operators and Mr.
Mitchell, to induce them to talk TO each
other freely and to reason quietly and
soberly and finally to agree If possible
to make concessions on each side which
Will terminate the strike. And, at
least if this last object cannot be di-
rectly attained, it is hoped that the
foundations may be laid for an agree
ment in the near future, perhaps an
agreement between the principals to
have further meetings and perhaps to
refer open issues between them to third
parties.
1t is stated positively that the Presi-
dent has no assurances from either
side which formed the basis of his call
for this meeting But. when Secre-
tary Root was in New York yesterday
and the night preceding, he saw one
at least of the coal presidents whose
name appears in to-day's list of invi-
tations. 1t was stated that the meet
ing was a casual one, but no state
ment could be extracted touching the
personality of the other great forces
that are operating in this strike who
might have been seen by the war sec
rotary in his peace mission. Other
great financial forces than Mr.. Nor
gan, competent 20 exercise a tremen-
dously powerful but secret pressure
upon corporations, exist in New York,
and it is surmised that with some of
these the Secretary. not unacquainted
in a business way in that circle, may
have had interviews during his visit.
Met With Prompt Response.
President Roosevelt's proposition for
a gathering here Friday morning of
representatives of the coal companies
and coal operators and the miners, met
a prompt response from a number of
the gentlemen to whom invitations
were sent. During the afternoon and
evening the President received replies
TO his invitations from President John
Mitchell of the United Mine Workers;
President George F. Baer of the Read
ing Railway system, and one or two
others. Mr.. Baer's prompt reply to
the Presidents suggestion was partic-
ularly gratifying to Mr.. Roosevelt, as
it was believed that in all probability
his acceptance will insure favorable
replies from other officials who were
invited. President A. J. Cassatt of
the Pennsylvania Railroad, is among
those asked to join in Fridays con-
ference, No reply has been received
from him tonight, though it is not
doubted he will attend

Man Remained SIX Days with De-
cOmEOsed Body.


New York. Oct. 1.-The body of Jen-
ME Larsen. a young Danish woman,
20 years old, was found in the apart
ment of Louis Applerod. on the third
floor of a tenement in Harlem to-day
She had been dead for days, according
to a medical expert; the body was mu-
tilated and much decomposed, and gas
filled the room. Despite the gas and
stencil which first revealed the trag-
edy, Applerod, in dazed mental
condition. was in the room when 1t was
entered by the police.
DR.. Donovan, who examined the
body, found that the abdomen had
been gashed in several places. lie said
he believed the woman had been dead
1--WE or six days, and it was his belief
that she had been the victim of GRIM
inal operation.
Appleord was arrested as a suspic-
ious person and taken to the station.
II was learned from his incoherent talk
that the young woman was his niece.
He had caused her to come from Dem
mark ten days ago, he said 20 be his
housekeeper.
Appleord is SO years old and con-
ductor on a line OF horse cars.
Coroner Scholer's opinion is that the
girl was strangled to death. He did not
believe a criminal operation had been
performed. Applerod. when questioned
by the police. would say little except
that he had turned on the gas in the
room for the purpose of committing
suicide. The police do not accuse Ap-
plerod of numbering the young woman.

the case than he is willing to tell.
Applerod was questioned tonight by
l. II.
District Attorney Krotel. Mr.. Krotel
said later that Applerod had convicted
himself of murder Of his niece and that
