DECISION OF COURT.
President EEan Thinks, Would Be
Awaited Before Merging.

Awaited Before Merging.
II hardly think that railway compa-
MES would consider a merger until
the United States Court has passed
upon the consolidation in the North
west" said President John NJ. Egan of
the Central Railway yesterday, when
asked what he thought of the report
that the Southern Railway, the Louis
vile and Nashville, the Evansville and
Terre Haute, the Chicago and Eastern
Illinois and other lines, aggregating
more than 10000 miles, were to be con-
solidated. Il do not know anything
about whether such a merger as re-
ported is even under consideration, but
l should say that any companies
meditating such step would await the
decision of the court before taking it."
The lines seeking to consolidate in
the Northwest are the Northern Pacific,
the Great Northern and the Burlington.
The New York Sun says of the re-
ported merger, including the Atlantic
Coast Line in the scheme:
Such combination has been talked
of and ii may be made in the future;
but it may be asserted as a positive
fact that no steps in that direction will
De tdheIl SO long as lneTe is any HUI
cation over the status of the Northern
Securities Company.
George w. Perkins of j. P. Morgan
& Co., when questioned about this mat
ter yesterday, said: We are not say
ing anything at all about Louisville
and Nashville affairs.
"One of the various reasons given in
Wall street yesterday for a jump of
more than 8 per cent in New York
Central stock was a revival of the re-
port that the Vanderbilts are
about to announce general
consolidation scheme on the
lines of the Northern Securities
Company. There is authority for the
statement that no such scheme will
be announced (even if at alp so long
as the legal status of the Northern Sc
curities Company is in doubt.
Arrangements have been made to
hold a meeting of the directors of the
$500. 100000 Northern Securities Com
pany in this city within the next ten
days. A member of the board said
yesterday that the meeting would be
held as soon as President James j. Hill
could get here from the West The
purpose of the prospective meeting is
not disclosed, but inasmuch as it is Just

while it was valuable In intrinsic
worth, still it was more valuable as it
denoted the expression OF love from
the living to the departed. and espec-
tally the devotion of the faithful to the
Savior of the world. AT the early
service before using the
chalice Mr.. Boberg consecrated the
vessel to the glory of God aud the
service of man.
Another beautiful gift to the church
was an exquisite Get of altar linen and
a silken veil for the sacred chalice
from the Chaucel Chapter OF the
Ladies' Guild.

The Easter services at the churches
IN town were beautiful, and the sacred
edifices were well attended. The
Episcopal church was crowded to the
DOORS, and the singing by the choir
was no doubt the finest ever heard in
Providence, the voice Of Miss Jue Male
Egelly, who rendered several solos,
seemed to sound sweeter and more
clearer GU this Easter morn than ever
before. Rev. Mr.. Boberg delivered an
eloquent sermon on the resurrection
and life of our Master.
The Easter Sunday service at the
Catholic church was beautifully car.
ried out, and the musical programme
arranged for the occasion was success
fully rendered. Mrs. o. P. Hamilton.
who has voice that IL very much ad-
mired, sang several solos. Father
Maize delivered an eloquent and touch
ing sermon suitable to the occasion.
The Methodist Church was beauti-
fully decorated with egergreens and
plants for the Easter service,
and the sanctuary and altar never
looked prettier. The church had a
large congregation, and the choir, lead
by Miss May Beard, rendered sweet
music for the solemn services. Rev.
Mr.. benson is an eloquent divine, and
his sermon was delivered with much
effect.
