PHILADELPHIA, PA. July 4.-Whhe
cf11cers continue to protest that harmony
prevails between the Pennsylvania Rail
road and the Gould interests. evidences
multiply that a fierce rivalry exists,
which at arg time may break out into
open war. The oustins of the Western
Union from it's lines By the Pennsylvania
is not the only public act which shows
the undercurrent of feeling between the
two great railroad interests.
From Pittsburg came the news yester-
day that the Could party. which has
been pushing steadily ahead with Its
plans. is arranging to put d track from
the Wabash extension into the great
zones & Laughlins works, and SO tap a
freight business which approximate
10, 10000 tons.
WABASH GETS A BIG TONNAGE
In this effort to wrest from the rem
sylvania tremendous BUSINESS. second
ONLY in Importance to that from the Car
reggie works, the Wabash is favored by
Jones & Laughlins, member OF the
firm being reported as saying
..If the Wabash does not connect with

One railroad is not enough. I am not at
liberty to say what the plans are
These plans are III the naHuS u y. w
Patterson. chief engineer of the Waoash
extension into Pittsburg. who mas also
had surveys made to reach every lmpor-
tant Industrial establishment in and near
Pjrtsburg It is sa6, that many OF these
are furnishing every assistance just as
zones & Laughlins are. It is we'll known
that the Carnegie Steel Company is I'M
der contract to give the Gould lines
Large minimum freight traffic as soon as
they get into Pittsburs.
PENNSYLVANIA FIGHTS RIVAL
To block the Wabash in every way pos
si5le the Pennsylvania is losing no op-
rc,trnity It's agents have bought tracts
OF land here and there On the lines of
tie Gould surveys. That this is being
done by the Pennsylvania IS stoutly de-
ricd, but the position of the company
may be gathered from the following re-
marks by an officer in reply TO questions
regarding Pennsylvania opposition to
Gould plans:

tried to obstruct the Wabash. OF course
we did not throw UP our hands to vel
come them to Pittsburg. We simply put
forth our neral influence and tried to
show Mr. Could that there was no need

the results you can see how Ear this
went with the Wabash people. They are

MONKEY 4 GUEST
At SOCIETY DINNER
Harry Lehr's Pet Stood in Re.
ceiving Line and Sat at Table
With Other Guests.
(Ey Associated Prcss.)

NEWPORT. R l., July 4.-Those who
were not fortunate enough to be present
are learning. one by one. that Harry
Lehr really outdid all former efforts at
pleasing his friends last Saturday even
ing. when he had a monkey as one of
his guests at a dinner he gave in honor
of Mrs Stuyvesant Fish.
The monkey, which answers to the
name of Jocko. has his home on Joseph
Letters yacht Taurus, upon which Mrs.
Fish made her trip to Newport The
animal is highly educated and his tricks
were so highly spoken OF by Mrs. Fish
that Mr. I.enr would not be content I'M
til he had brought the fellow to Arleigh,
his summer residence.
Jocio was therefore. in the receiving
line for the dinner party, and was one
of the first to greet Mr.. and Mrs. Lehrs
guests upon arrival. He was Sayly at
tired i'll g red suit that Mr.. Lehr had
made for him by an accomodatin tailor
who produced the garments in an incredi-
bly, short time The suit, which was in
accordance with the plans specifically
prepared by Mr. Lehr. was of cardinal red
MATERIAL trimmed With "ioe pidCh pldlu
and having three large shttering buttons
in front. 1t was pulled in at the waist
with a belt and had two holes in the
bottom through which Joclo's legs pro-
truded.
1t is the monkeys privilege on the Tau
rus to sit at table with Mr.. Letter, who
is a brother of Lady CurZon. and this
privilege was not denied to Jocllo at Ar
leigh, although in his chair between Mrs.
Fish and Mr. Lehr he was made to do
his tricks just to pay for the honor of
being present
OF course, Harry Lehr's latest is the
society sensation of the time.

most remarkable cases ever known in

eral times and sent to the asylum. after
which he has been released on Through

a few weeks ago board of lunacy was
summoned to examine him, and he was
found to be in a bad condition. He was
taken to the county Jail and locked up.
awaiting the arrival of an officer to con-
vey him to the asylum, and a few days
after being confined he picked hole
through the wall of the jail and made his
escape Previous TO this he abhorred the
idea of being taken to the asylum, but
as soon as he gained his freedom he Went
to the home of his friend and told him
he wanted TO so back to the asylum. and
his friend agreed TO take him to Burke
VILE, where he took the train for Peters
burg He went direct TO the hospital and
asked that he be admitted, but was re
fused by the superintendent for the rea-
son that hH had no papers and one
accompanied him. The superintendent
wrote to Mr.. Fowkles. who. in answer
explained the case, and the authorities
here had him admitted.

Pictures of actresses no longer have

sigh. Where we formerly sold a dozen
photographs Of a rciSning favorite. now
We are glad to sell half that quantity.
This may be due to one or two rea sons.

may be that the theatre goers in New

cost more nowadays. The art of pho

"Once upon time you could buy pic
