DEAL IN COAL LANDS.


LITCHFIELD. ILL.,. July 29.-What Is
probably the largest single coal deal in
the history Of the Illinois coal fields has
just been consummated in the northern
part of Montgomery and Macoupin coun-
ties. A. G. Simpson. OF New York. repre-
senting an Eastern syndicate with a capital
OF 1850 coo. has secured options on the
coal under 5000 acres of land in one body
and is attempting TO secure about 5000
more. A prospect hole is being bored Just
west OF WaggOner, on the county line.
Another will be bored in the vicinity of
land north OF Waggoner. The supposition
Is that the deal is backed by the Burling-
ton route, and a spur track will be eX-
tended east from McVey and through the
center OF the coal fields just secured. The
options are at the rate OF $3.50 an acre,
and will expire by Limitation on Oct. l. 1902
II the coal is found in paying quantities
every land owner will receive his money
on or before that date.

IOWA REPUBLICANS.


DES MONIES. Ia, July 29.-The with
drawal of Lafayette Young. of Des Moines.
this evening as a candidate for member Of
the committee on resolutions from the Sew
enth district is generally regarded as end
ing the opposition TO the reafirmation Of
last years platform by the Republican
State convention tomorrow. Mr.. Young 5
decision was announced after a caucus of
the Polk county delegation. The objection
which had been made TO the reafflrmation Of
last years platform was directed almost
entirely 10 the clause in the trust plank de-
claring for ANY modification of the tariff
schedules that may be required to prevent
their affording shelter to monopoly" 1t
was held by some that the clause was a
virtual admission of the Democratic claim
that the tariff fosters trusts.
Senators Allison and Dolliver and the en-
tire Iowa delegation in congress are here
to attend the convention. While some OF
the congressman have privately favored a
modification OF last years platform, none
of the delegation has taken part in the con-
test so far as IL has progressed.

TELEPHONE COMPANIES AGREE
Three Systems at Free
mont.

FREMONT. Neb.. Nov. 7.-(specisl.)-
After rejecting various propositions and
counter propositions the Independent Tele-
phone company Of this city, the Farmers
company OF Scribner and the Bell Tele-
phone company finally adopted satisfactory
traf1c arrangements at a meeting OF the
Farmers company at serlbner which was
attended by the representatives OF the
other companies. When the Independent
company Of this city was organized It was
expected that trafic arrangements would
be made with the Farmers company,
though there was no agreement to that
effect. From the beginning there was
some ill-feeling between the two COM
panies, which the Bell company was not
slow to take advantage Of Both compa
MES submitted propositions for a trafhc
settlement with the Farmers company and
finally at the Scribner meeting that Of the
Bell company was accepted. The Fremont
company and the Hooper company then got
together and made a satisfactory agree
ment. The Hooper company has an agree
ment with the Farmers company and in
this way It is thought the Fremont COM
pany can reach the country. The Fremont
company has nearly all their poles set and
all their other material on hand. They will
probably have the phones in by the mid
die OF December. Their lines are to be
extended into Saunders county.
