President Spencer, of the South.
erD, Is Interviewed.

Jackson, Miss, Nov. 90. In an in
ierview here yesterday President
samuel Spencer, of the Southern Rail-
way, stated that no prediction could be
made as to tho probable limit of the
movement toward The consolidation of
railroads in the United States. Rail-
rond mergers and consultations" he
said, follow no beaten paths, ard
they have no p~reocdents. They TO-
suit from tho logic of events and bust
ness developments, and the only fac-
tors by which they are goverend are
the laws of supply and demand the
principles of trade and traffic, and the
least resistance to commerce. / am
not prepared to say where the ten
uency toward consolidation will cease
or how far it will go. All depends
upon developments in the commercial
world"

BISHOPS SUCCESSOR
WHO WILL BE ELECTED TO
THOnPSON'S PLACE?
There Will Be q Number of Can.
didates- Several New
Entries.

jackson, Miss, Nov. 22.-Tlie men,
bers Of tho Episcopal clergy in Mis-
sissippi manifest q decided rcluct-
ancs about discussing the probable
successor of Bishop Hugh Miller
Thompson as head of the diocese, and
the indications are that tho contest
for the place when the diocesan
council meets in Jackson six weeks
hence Will be quite lively.
The names heretofore suggested in
connection with the place are Rev. p
g. Sears, of Meridian, DIR. George
@. Harris, of yicksburg, and DR..
Beverly Warner, Of New Orleans. 1t
is now stated that the names Of DIR.
Murray. of Birmingham. and DR..
Arthur Bond, ofNew York, arc likely
to be paced in nomination. DIR. MBr-
ray was II of tic principal COMICS
tants for Bishop of Alabama, filed q
S hort time since the election of Rov.
Geo. Beck With, of Texas.
A member of the Episcopal clergy
from one CT the most prominent par
ishes in the state, and who Las been q
leader in Episcopal affairs for some
time, states that 1t is impossible to-
hazard even q vague prediction con
corning the new Bishop, and that it Is
often the case that a vacancy is filled
BY the election of some priestwhO was
not aver thought of within q few days
prior to the meeting of the council.
The friends of the clorgymen who
have been mentioned for tho honor
decline to discuss the subject at pre-
sent, owing to tho fear that publicity
might cripple tho chances of thoir
favoritos. For this reason it is bo-
level tho matter will not be public
ly agitaiea TO and extent until within
q few days Of the meeting Of the coun-
Gil on tho 10th of January. 1t is al
most a certainty that a number of bal
lots will be taken, and many oompli-
meatary votes will be cast on tho
first ballots.
The election of a Bishop Is first
made by the clergy, and the nominees
tlen submitted to the lay delegates at
tending the council meeting. In case
the nomination is ratified the Bishop
is then elected, and q date named for
his conservation.
