and sometimes later the Japanese
boy was supposed TO return and
clear it away.
% the morning OF July 30, the
chocolate was brought to the capt

failed to come back to clear the
dishes, so the captain went forward
to look him up. He found the boy
seated in the cooks galley, and told
him to go and do his work. Instantly
the boy pulled a big butcher knife

MAY SELL PROPERTIES
DISRUPTION OF THE EVERETT
MOORE SYNDICATE PROBABLE.
Representatives OF the EIkins-Wilder
Company May Buy Cleveland and
Other Traction Lines.

CLEVELAND, o., Jan. 22.-Representa-
tives of the Elxins-Widener syndicate have
examined all the traction interests of the
Everett-Moore syndicate with the object
in view of purchasing the extensive rail-
way interests, including the properties in
this city. 1t is said the representatives of
the Ell1ins- Widener syndicate are very well
satisfied with the physical condition of the
traction lines and consider 1T desirable
investment.
1t is now practically settled that either
the Federal Telephone system or the entire
traction system will be sold in a lump. The
sale of either property will eliminate the
necessity of selling the other. Even If 1T
is necessary to include in the deal the sale
of the Cleveland Electric Railway Com
pany, the principal local street-car system,
will be made as part of the Everett-Moore
traction properties.
According to Chairman Newcomb to-
night, C. w. Morse, of New York, stands
in the lead of the several parties who have
been looking into the telephone properties
with the purpose of buying them as
whole. 1t is also understood that Eastern
bond houses are after a controlling interest
in the telephone interests.
The Elkins-Widener syndicate is one of
the most powerful in the United States.
1t is understood that if this company gets
control of the Everett-Moore properties it
will complete the work planned by the
Everett-MoOre people Chairman Newcomb
said that no definite proposals had yet been
received, but that negotiations tending to
that end are in progress daily. Mr.. New
comb said the members of the syndicate
have given their consent to any transac-
tons which the bankers committee desire
TO make. He said no under-value price will
be considered for any of the properties.
The canceling of the obligations of the
syndicate and the preservation of equities
is what the committee is after.
In relation to the conference at Detroit
on Tuesday, when members of the COM
mittee were approached with reference to
the purchase of the uncOmpleted plant of
the Peoples Telephone Company, part
OF the Federal Telephone Company, Mr..
Newcomb said that Detroit parties are
anxious TO get option on the property.
None will be given, however for some
time, because of the negotiations for the
sale of the telephone interests in lump
Should the Federal system not be sold
entire an option may be granted for the
sale of the Detroit property.
1t is understood the Bell Telephone Com
pany has representatives watching the
trend of events. but ii is the wish of the
promoters of the company to keep it in
independent hands.

blind TO the fact that with many of the
industries OF the United States the rates of
duty which in 1897 were regarded as reason
since that time, owing to the curious deVel-
opment of our industrial and commercial
life. become unnecessary, and in many
cases even absurd. They stand on our

cases been turned a weapon OF o1enSe

He said: "A short time before the trial of
Mr.. Patrick began / was called to New

neys to have Patrick compromise the will
of 1900. We declined TO accept any offer
that would not eXOnerate Mr. Patrick of
the charge of murder and stop the prosecu-
ton. reply of such character was made
TO our refusal that led me to believe we
could get $4,000 If We would compromise.
We again declined, as no one was in a
position to deliver what we wanted. and
the negotiations ended" Mr.. Milliken de-
clared his belief in Patrick's innocence. and
said he would defray the cost of his de-
