resulted in the death of fifty children
while many more are fighting the
disease in consequence. Some weeks
ago, when little girl died Of diphthe-
ria in nearby village, the school
mistress led her charges to the coffin
and asked them to kiss the mouth
OF the body. Almost every one ofthe
children fell sick OF diphtheria a few
days afterward, scores of them dying,
as reported, while the epidemic is
threatening to depopulate the whole
village.-Memphis Morning News.

RAILROADS CAN'T AGREE.
Gould and Hartman Said to Be En-
gagged in a Fierce Struggle.

Chicago, Jan. 1S.--The Record Her
aid tomorrow will say:
The Gould and Hartman interests
are engaged in Il struggle for trans
continental traffic which will test to
Its uttermost the strength of the COM
munity of interests.
The two interests have been unable
to get together, although several at
tempts have been made recently. The
executive officials of the Colorado and
Utah lines We're unable to settle their
differences in meeting held here and
adjourned from day to day during the
present week. AS result of the un-
settled condition of traffic matters in
Colorado and Utah, the officials of
lines east of the river We're equally
unable to make firm pledges that rates
would be maintained for another
month. The fight which the Goulds
have begun for recognition rs n trans
continental factor through the Ogden
gateway is the explanation of the
withdrawal of the Missouri Pacific
from the Colorado and Utah associa-
tion and the refusal of its officials up
to date to re-enter.
The purpose of the acquisition of the
Denver Il Rio Grande and the Rio
Grande Western by the Goulds has be-
come plain through the fight now III
progress. The situation is this:
Through their possession of the Rio
Grande roads the Goulds are laying
claim to large percentage OF the
through traffic from the coast.
Should the Hartman people refuse
to turn over to the Gould connections
the amount of traffic the Goulds think
they are entitled to the result Will
be problematical. Should the Goulds
decide to get the amount of traffic
they are claiming their position enti-
ties them to. rates would undoubtedly
be cut, as they We're in December, and
the bulk of the traffic would go from
Ogden by the way of Grand Junction
and Pueblo, where it would be deliv-
cred to the Missouri Pacific for st.
Louis and the East.
1t is also understood that refusal
OH the part of the Hartman people
to accedc to the demands OF the
Goulds would mean an alliance be-
tween the Goulds and Senator Clark.
who would be able to give the Goulds
a Pacific coast outlet by the way of
the projected Los Angeles-Salt Lake
line.
The situation is further complicated
by the fact that the Northern Pacific
interests have announced their inten-
ton of building Il Portland cut-oT
from Missoula, Montana, through the
Clearwater district, thereby tapping
rich territory of the Oregon Railroad
& Navigation Company and the Ore
gon Short Line. \ line from Ogden
to connection with the projected
Clearwater branch of the Northern Pa
citic is among the possibilities OF Il
failure of the Goulds and the Harri-
man people to agree.
The Missoula cutoff would shorten
the Northern Pncifics st. Paul-Pprt-
land line by over 200 miles.

Diamonds in Montana.

Lewiston. Mont. Jan. 1S.-Diamonds
that are said by Tiffany to be of the
first water have been found in the
northern part of Fergus county. ac-
cording to Il report which reached
here to-day from II reliable source. The
news of the find caused commotion
among the prospectors of this region
and tonight dozens of them are on
their way to what they believe ie Il
new land of riches.
The discovery was made on Blood
creek, n mountainous country, which
in its geological nature is said to re-
semble that about Kimberley, South
Africa.
Some time ago Cliff Dec and an
other prospector visited the Blood
creek region on hunting expedition
and while there Dec picked up several
pebbles that attracted his attention.
Curiosity rs to what they We're
caused him to forward them to the
New York jeweler for examination.
He received yesterday an answer de-
claring the stones to be diamonds of
the first grade. Dec tried to keep his
secret, but the news of the discovery
leaked out.

WOULD POSTPONE EXPOSITION
St. Louis People Want More Time tc
Prepare for It.

washington, Ian. 1.-THE Louisiana
Purchase Exposition. which was to
have been held mt st. Louis in 1903.
will not take place until 1901. This
fact was practically conceded by eX-
Governor Francis, president of the ex-
position company, and Adolph Busch,
the financial agent of the company, mt
thccNhite House to-day. Since arriv-
lneS S.r and comforting with the foreign
representatives. Governor Francis and
Mr. Busch have come TO the conclusion
that unless the exposition is postponed
for II year the exposition Will not be
able to secure the elaborate foreign ex-
hibits which are desired. I'm 1903 we
can make the exposition as great as
any ever given" said Governor Fran
els, but II we postpone it year 1t Will
surpass anything in the exposition line
ever attempted"
The exposition managers explain
that a great Japanese fair is to be given
under governemnt auspices in 1903,
and II the exposition is postponed un-
til 1904 everything Of interest exhibited
there can be brought TO st. Louis the
following year. 1t is the desire of the
exposition management that the for
eign exhibits especially shall be very
complete.
1--WE can be ready in 1908, but 1t is
questionable whether we can secure
what we want from abroad by that
time" said Governor Francis.
