WHICH FLAG WILL 1T BE?
This and the Question of National
Air PuzzIing Committee.

AIT BuzziinE Committee.
Two points of naval etiquette are caus-
ing considerable trouble to the German
and American officials who are arranging
the plans for the launching Of the
Kajsers yacht tomorrow. The first OF
these relates 10 the national air &c be
played when the Presidents party and the
Prince arrive at she island. The question
is whether the American or the German
national air shall be played. So diHcult
has the problem seemed and so uncertain
are the various naval authorities. that IN
the announcement Of the programme by
Lieutenant Commander Fry. Of the New
York Naval Militia, yesterday. the subject
was left Ccen.
Another delicate point is whether the
yacht should carry a German or an Amer
lean flag when she slips down the ways
into the water The position taken by the
Americans particularly By Rear Admiral
Evans. who has charge Of the naval ar
engagements, is that the yacht should
carry the American flag Until she re-
ceives her clearance papers and leaves
the country she is an American vessel
legally and rs such should wear the
American colors. This is the contention
Of admiral Evans.
The second OF these questions viii prob
ably be decided in the American way. as
il is understood that the Germans are in
ciined 10 waive this point The Kaiser
yacht viii probably carry the American
flag at the taffrail. where the national
colors are flown. the imperial STANDARD al
the main and the Imperial Yacht Clubs
pennant at the fOretruck.
Neither Of these points has yet been
settled. Both Of them are pulling the
committees even at this late hour.

New Company Being Formed to Take
over All Lines In Philadelphia.
Philadelphia, Jan. 2S.-The direc.
tors of the Union Traction company,
which controls all the street car lines
in this city, at a special meeting held
in the offices of P. A. B. Widener, yes
terday afternoon, granted the request
of John M. Mack for a conference be-
tween the Union Traction company
and the Mack-Foerderer company,
which owns all the street car fran
chises granted last summer by city
councils. Immediately after the meet
ing Mr.. Mack left for New York.
It is proposed to form a new COM
pany, to be called the Consolidated
Traction company, which will be capt.
talized at S30,O00,000 The promoters
of this company made a proposal to
the Union Traction company to lease
all it's lines on a sliding scale rental,
in which the dividends increase each
year until the ftil year, when a G
per cent. basis is reached. After that
period the Consolidated Traction
company guarantees a fixed rental of
per cent to the Union Traction
stockholders. To the Mack-Foerder-
Wolf syndicate the proposal is made
to take over all their franchises which
were recently granted and which cover
in perpetuity all the important street
railway concessions. The new COM
pany will therefore have a monopoly
of all the local transportation, sur
face, underground and elevated,
which Philadelphia has and will ever
re. The deal involves financial
SITS worth fully s15O,OOO.OOO.
