New York, Feb 20.-It is we'll known
in the financial world that the rela-
lions between Hill and j. Pierpont
Morgan are not SO close as they were
some time ago. While there has been
no open rupture, their relations are not
so cordial as they We're before the
Northern Pacific episode. Mr.. Morgan
was in Europe and the handling of the
negotiations fell largely into the hands
of Mr.. Hill. When Mr.. Morgan re-
turned he expressed his opinion freely
regarding the manner in which the ne
gotiations had been handled. Another
matter which has helped to bring about
an estrangement between Mr.. Hill and
Mr. Morgan is the iron ore deposits
controlled by the former. Mr.. Morgan
is very anxious to purchase these iron
ore deposits for the steel corporation.
Mr. Hill has agreed % sell, but has
placed price upon tho property which
is considered excessive by the steel COR
poration. While it is believed that the
trust will eventually secure the de-
posits, it Is thought that the company
will have to pay Mr.. Hill high price.

oeHeTSoH LAWS was imprisoned.
Baltimore Herald: Work was begun
Wednesday on the demolition of the old
Carroll house in the ramparts of Fort
Monroe. 1t was the first structure
erected on the reservation and was
built In 1919. This was two years be-
fore the Virginia legislature ceded to
the United States the land on which
Fort Monroe now stands.
The building is of historical interest
also because 1t was occupied by Jeffer
son Davis after he was removed from
the casemate dungeoW while awaiting
his trial on the charge of high trea-
son. General Simon Bernard. French
engineer who saw service under the
last Napoleon, supervised the construc-
ton of a bridge from the building to
the top of the ramparts, where Mr.. Da-
Wis was allowed to take exercise. The
site of the old building VIII be used for
a new mess hall.

IF I WE'RE TO DIE TOMORROW.
On the seventh day of Villon's week
of wonder, his glory was at it's great
est. No fairer day had graced that
radiant month OF June and no more
splendid pageantry had adorned the IL
lustrious reign of the new grand con-
stable. Mimic battles, fountains rum
ming Wine, free doles of food, fantastic
pageants, grotesque dances, all the COR
geous mummery that the fifteenth CEN
fury delighted in was offered in pro-
fusion to please the fancy and win the
hearts Of the people Of Paris. But the
browning triumph was the great fes-
tival which the grand constable gave
With the kings permission in the kings
own rose garden, the magnificent mas
carado in the italian manner. to which
all who were associated with the court
were summoned. This revelry which
began at sunset was intended to over
top all possible courtly ceremonials in
the splendor of its equipment. the Law
ishness of it's display, the richness and
profusion of its hospitality
1T was near to the hour of sunset
when Villon sat with the hing in the
little room in the grey tower from
which the king loved to follow the
movements of the heavenly bodies. On
We're seated lay large chart of the
country in the immediate neighborhood
of Paris, and in front of the table stood
three of the kings most trusty COM
manders, the Lord du Lau, the Lord
Poncet de Riviere and the Lord of Nan
toilet.
Villon had been explaining to the king
and to his military advisers a scheme
which had been growing in his mind
throughout the week for the confusion
of the enemy, scheme for which the
gorgeous entertainment to be given that
evening was to serve as golden mask.
Nilon touched a point on the map
which represented a spot very familiar
to him, a little dip in the swelling land,
where he used to play as a child and
gather wild flowers and hide himself,
and imagine that he was bandit or a
great captain or a fairy prince-any
one of the thousand illusions of child
hood at its play.
There SIRE he said. ''If 1 can lure
the Burgundians to that hollow, the day
is ours. The sloping ground above it
will mask a thousand men,
Poncet de Riviere leaned forward
questioningly.
Are you sure of the lay of the land?"
Villon answered positively:
Sure. 1 played truant there when I
was no higher than your sword belt
Nantcllet spoke as man who
weighs his words
THE scheme seems feasible, sire"
villon glanced UP from the table in
humorous apology.
You may think me raw soldier" he
said, yet have practiced strategy all
my days"
Du Lau answered him approvingly:
My lord, you reason like seasoned
veteran"
Pleased with the praise villon turned
to the king.

cry was repeated upon a hundred lips.
AS Toison dor turned and left the
presence, Katherine came swiftly down
the steps and flung herself at villon's
feet.
MY lord" she said. with my lips

Your words of fame"
Louis leaned forward, smiling sar-

The girl rose to her feet, looking into
Villon's face with eyes that mirrored
the admiration shining in his eyes.

Many leaped to telegraph and tele-

MARVELLOUS ESCAPES.
In many instances, when every ave-
nue. from the interior was cut off,
guests jumped from the windows to the
telegraph wires, worked their way over
the wires to the poles and We're rescued.
A. M. Larson of Oelwein had one Of
the most miraculous escapes. Larson
actually leaped from the third story
window to the pavement. lighting
squarely on his feet, and was uninjured
save some slight bruises. How he es-
capped death Is mystery and how he
escaped serious injury nothing short OF
a miracle.
Many leaped from the third story to
the roof of a second story building to
the rear. Nearly all who attempted to
get away from the fire. trap through
this avenue were severely injured, but
managed to escape with their lives.
From the two-story building they
climbed through a trap door to the In
terlor and thence outside.

In Doubt About Washington.

According TO the rumors which have
been in circulation in Washington for
the last eighteen months, the GouIds
have inspected and negotiated for about
every possible route into the city from
his West Virginia and Maryland lines
So far, however, not one Of these ru-
mors has been verified beyond conhrrna-
tory statements issued by attorneys in
terested. The latest Of the rImors con-
cerned the old franchise Of the Southern
Maryland, and the local Representatives
OF the owners asserted that conferences
were being held with the Goulds in New
York, which were likely to result in the
sale OF the franchise TO the Wabash. It
was also announced that an agent Of
the Wabash was coming here to inspect
the property. Now George Gould has
gone South, and the local representa-
tives have received no word as to what
happened to the negotiations. If the
agent came TO Washington he made his
visit so secretly that no one knew when
he arrived or departed. The local rail-
road men. however, who have been
been watching the proceedings Of the
Wabash elsewhere, are Of the opinion
that Nj Gould has decided just what
he is going TO do in Washington, and
that announcements will be made by
him when he is ready 10 begin building.
