The House District Committee yester-
day gave hearing to Messrs. Eugene G

Conservative Quarters in Lon.

Part Played by a Woman in the Sale Of
the White Star Line to the
Corporation. ;.,

LONDON, May 10.-The publication oil
the details Of the shipping agreemen,
seems to have increased instead Of dimin-
yet offered any practical suggestion as "a
what should be done about it. On the
other hand. there Is developing strong re-
sentiment against Mr.. Ismay and some OF
his associates for misleading the public
by preliminary statements which. while
not technically false, were apparently in
tended to deceive.
Conservative opinion. which, previous
TO Fridays announcement. refused to take
alarm, is now fairly represented by the
Spectator" when it says today:
at is natural that the whole transac
tion should have caused a great deal Of
annoyance here and we do not profess not
to share that annoyance. Yet. after all
annoyance can do little or no good. What
the British people. especially our ship
owners. ought to do. Is not to let their
energy evaporate in further imprecations
OF Mr.. Morgan. but to throw themselves
with vigor into competing with and beat
ing his trust"
The people of Belfast. who know Mr.
Plrrie. the president Of the Harland &
Wolff Company. say that when he was
nrSt apprOaCneu Dy mr. morgan s agents
he fatty refused to have anything to do
with the projected combination. As
business man he could not deny that the
terms offered were tempting enough. but
he got II into his head that 1t would mean
social ruin for him, as he had long been
marked for a peerage or a baronetcy at
the kings coronation
To meet this objection certain modif
cations in the original terms were made
SO as apparently to avert the danger Of
the ships included In the merger coming
under the American flag. He was still
fearful when. quite unexpectedly. the per-
sons concerned in the merger received the
assistance Of Mrs. Pirrie. a woman Of re-
intellect and force of character.
Unlike most Of her sex. she has no par
ticular hankering after social distinctions
that have to be paid for at the price Of
business considerations. and
as the combination was undoubtedly good
her advice that the White Star
should enter into it, prevailed.

BAD MONEY AFl0AT.
Counterfeiters Believed to Be at Their
Old Tricks in Washington.

Notice was sent out by the police last
night to arrest two men. one having the
appearance of an Italian. They are sus-
pccted of passing counterfeit money yes
terGay in this city. Information received
from Baltimore leads to the belief that
The same persons recently passed con-
siderable spurious coin in that city.

called to the matte yesterday afternoon
by a report from Hicksons grocery store.

men entered the store where one of them
made tririing purchase. giving the clerk
a half-dOllar. and receiving change. The
men then left the store. and nothing has
since been heard from them.
During the afternoon. while the change
was being counted in the cash drawer, 1t
was discovered that counterfeit half
dollar had been taken in. The clerk who
waited on the two strangers recalled the
incident. One man is thirty years old.
about five feet eight inches tall. and
weighing $50 pounds. His companion was
