officials.

6tfUBlIC SPEAlAL.
New York, March 1.-THE annual meet
ing OF the directors of the Missouri Pacific
Railroad was held to-day for the election
Of officers and the Executive Cimmittee
The list of officers remains the same, with
the addition Of A. c. Bird, formerly of the
Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul, who was
elected vice president of the Missouri
Pacific.
The Wabash directors had elected Mr.
Bird vice president to have charge of the
traffic of that system. and his election to
the vice presidency of the Missouri Pacific
is taken to mean that he is to be given
charge OF all traffic of the Gould system.
The grading of the vice presidents was
abolished. the four officials of this class
being placed on an equal footing. The
only change in the Executive Committee
was the election of John d. Roclsefe!!e-.
Jr:. to succeed General Louis Fitzgerald
The annual meeting OF the Iron Mountain
directors was held and the old officers and
Executive Committee reelected.
Mr. Bird was also elected vice president
OF the Iron Mountain. This admission of
Standard Oil interests to the inner circle
of the Missouri Pacific is the afiie.ai an
nouncement of the Could Rockefeller all!-
ance In the Southwest.

Councilman Markham in an effort to keep
the bill from reverting to the committee
stated that the gentlemen composing the
Hotel Realty Company were performing a
great public service in erecting a big insti-
tuition to help facilitate Worlds Fair ac-
commodations. that they were not in the en-
terprse for what profit they could make out
Of it. and that In his opinion the Municipal
Assembly should help along the undertaking
as much as possible.
Mr. Horton explained that the Council
could not help the Hotel Realty Company
by giving them permission to do something
which the Council had no authority to do.
The property holders on the west side Of the
