EMPHATIC DfNIALS
NO THOUGHT OF FORMING CANA
DIAN SECURITIES co.
HILL NEVER HEARD OF IT
One of Morgan's Agents Makes Expla-
nation of What Some Unauthorized
Stockholders Might Do-Has No
Need of Canadian Charter.
(Bv Associated Press.

tDy <SSOtlaltu 1882
New York, March 3.-Emphatic denials
have been made by eminent financial and
railroad officials, interested in the North
ern Securities, of the report that 1t is
proposed to incorporate a company under
the laws of Canada, legally equipped to
protect the interests"Df shareholders of
the Northern Securities company in the
event of embarrassment through Presi-
dent Roosevelts instructions to Attorney
General Knox.
What is peculiar IN the face of those
denials the fact that for some time
there has been talk among well informed
financiers of the possible organization Of
a company in England or Canada for the
management of the Northern Securities
company, If an adverse decision of the
courts should invaEdate the merger.
It was argued by these men that this
holding corporation was I'm no way con-
nected with the operation Of the Great
Northern or Northern Pacific systems,
which between them control the Burling-
ton interests.
With the consent of the stockholders
who have invested in the merger securi-
ties. the control exercised by the COM
bination could be directed from foreign
soil so far as the administration and ad-
visory offices aresconcerned.
Hill Denies It.
The investors, however, who are unfa-
m.liar with the corporation laws of other
countries went into the merger as COM
pany formed under the laws of New Jer-
sey and according to the opinion of a
well-known financier would be opposed
to taking extra territorial chances which
they have not bargained for
President Hill OF the Securities COM
pany was not content with a denial of
any interest in the charter, but wished to
be quoted as saying he had never heard
of the plan before it's publication.
Il think have a fair idea of what the
company Is doing" he said. II know
nothing of the Canadian charter. This Is
news to me. That is all / wish to say.
1t seems to cover the ground
George W. Perkins, of ]. p. Morgan &
Co., sad he had heard nothing of such q
plan.
"It is possible" he said that the in
sibilty, have applied for charter, under
the name of Northern Securities COM
pany, as speculation.
by this L mean they are taking a
chance of some day being able to dispose
! of the charter to the New Jersey cor
| poration and exaggerate the possibility
| of invalidation of the merger under
| United States laws.
THE merger company has no need OF a
| Canadian charter to facilitate business
for which the consolidation was made.
Il presume to speak only on my own
information"

BANKS OF SNOW STILL CLING TO
THE MOUNTAIN.
EXPECT ANOTHER ANY MINUTE
Work Of Rescuing the Bodies Is Slow
Because of the Lack of Men--Thurs-
DAYS Victims Were Buried
Yesterday Afternoon.
(Ry Associated Press.)

Telluride, March 3.--.Danger to miners
and mining property in the district from
snowslides is by no means allayed. The
banks of snow still cling to the noun
tain sides, threatening destruction to
everything beneath them.
To-day word reached Telluride that the
snow on the mountain near the Bob
tail mine had released its grip on the
mountain side and rushed TO the canyon
below, sweeping everything before 1t.
The residence of Superintendent Van
Law of the Smuggler Union mine was
carried away but fortunately the occu-
pants had moved out on instructions
from Manager Collins, who feared for
their safety.
Second Slide.
While a force of men were clearing
away the train, the second slide. much
heavier than the first, came down with
q crash, burying several workmen. The
noise of the moving mass gave warm
ing to the men who were on the alert
and they made a dash for safety. Sew
eral of them ran to a projecting Gilt,
which they thought was out of the path
OF the slide, but these were knocked
down by the slide.
One man, Henry II. Martin, an en-
pioye of the Bobtail, Is missing. and 1t
is thought he is buried beneath the
mass of snow and rocks. Several were
rescued and bear more or less marks
of their experience.
Worst Slide to Come.
So far as the destruction of property
is concerned and the loss TO possible life,
the worst slide is to come. IL Is feared.
This Is the Pandora slide, which runs be-
tween the Bullion tunnel and the Valley
View mine, and It's path takes the whole
trail from the Smuggler to Hanging
Rock, and down the canyon to Pandora.
OF late years 1t has not run, but on
account of the recent heavy snowfall 1t
is expected at any moment.
Mangled Bodies Found.
At o'clock yesterday afternoon a
heavy snow commenced falling. This Is
the worst storm of the season and will
greatly increase the danger from snow
slides. Word came yesterday that the
bodies of Paul Dalpra and Gus Won Fin
tel were found in the third slide on the
Liberty Bell. Both were horribly mangled
and almost unrecogniZable.
The work of rescue was slow because
of lack OF men. many OF whom came
here to attend the funeral of the victims
OF Thursdays slide, which was held yes
terday afternoon. The funeral was
largely attended.

RAILROAD TELEPHONE A SUCCESS
Could Talk With Train Crew Four
Hundred Miles Away.
OBy Associated Pressl

10Y ASSocldleu GTeSS) I5.-.
Chicago, March 3.-In the test Just
made a train crew, 400 miles from Chi
cago talked over the telegraph wires to
Chief Operator Parson of the Illinois
Central railroad at the Twelfth street
depot
AS result the railroad telephone was
declared to be a success.
The train was stopped near Fulton
KY, and the telephone was connected
with the regular telegraph wire running
to Chicago. In spite of the fact that the
message had to travel over iron wires
which ran parallel to more than score
of other wires every word was distinct
ly heard by Mr., Parsons.
The inventor asserts it makes no diff
ference whether or not telegraphic mes
sages are being flashed over the wires
simultaneously with the telephone mes
sages.
This was tested by the successful
transmission of telegraphc commune
cation from Fulton at the same time
Parsons was conversing with the crew.

FOLLOWED BY AN ALMOST AS
DESTRUCTIVE FLOOD.
ENORMOUS LOSS OF PROPERTY
New Jersey City Having a Streak OF
Unprecedented Bad Luck-More
Than 100 Families Homeless Il Y
as a Result of High Water. Ff'
(By Associated press.)

| Paterson, N. j.. March 3.--This city so
| recently swept by fire, is now over-
whelmed by food. Three weeks ago the
| greater part of It's business section was
burned out and today the quarter oc4
cupied by. poor classes is inundated.
Hundreds Of families are homeless and
for miles around the citysk, under water.
So far one death has been Teported.
The great peril now Is that the Spruce
street raceway, which supplies water
power for all the mills along the water
front, may overflow. This would cause
great loss to the manufacturing dis
tricts. Expert engineers have placed
dynamite below the Spruce street bridge
and If necessary 1t will be touched off.
This VIII open a new channel for the
volume held there and, diverting It, save
good deal Of property.
Widespread Desolation.
The fire of three weeks ago, while caus-
ing damage to property to the total Of
nearly SS,OOO,O0O. did not create such suf-
fering and widespread desoation as the
flood of today.
The district for a mile along the river
front, from Spruce street hill to Straight
street and two blocks north and live
docks south of the river, nearly mile
in width Is covered with water. and
in some places to the second story or
dwellings. In this district are situate
the Rogers locomotive works and sew
eral silk mills and dyeworks. Near by
| live fully 800 families, who have been
driven from their tenements. Several
hundred of these people were taken from
their houses in boats and barges amid
scenes of much excitement
Last night more than 100 homeless
families are sheltered in the Fifth regi-
ment armory. Citizens from all parts
of the city have poured I'm loads Of ban-
kets. clothing and provisions. City en-
ployes of every department worked like
beavers I'm their efforts to relieve the dis
tressed. There was a lack of boats to
cope with the emergency and wagon
load was sent over from Neward in good
time to give excellent service. II 7s
One Life Lost. ..u
In the work of rescue, Henry Rich
ards. a carpenter, lost his life. After
making several trips. on each of which
he brought three or four persons his
boat was upset and he was swept away
in the waters, which We're rushing with
the force of mllrace.
Two Fire Alarms.
Two alarms of fire were turned in dur
! ing the afternoon. and IL looked as ~
the elements were combining to destroy
the city.
The flremen who were helping to- re-
move people from the flooded district
were forced TO take three hours to fight
the flames. Neither loss was big, but
as a brisk wind was blowing the danger
was great.
On Hamilton avenue near the river
two new buildings undermined by the
flood collapsed and were swept away.
The Arch street bridge collapsed In
the afternoon and all the other bridges
are completely submerged. The boiler
and engine rooms of several big mills
were 10 feet under water.
