minated by United States Company.

NEW. YORK, July IA long con,
ference between Receiver Smith ana
counsel was held at the offices of the
United States Shipbuilding company
today. The receiver said he had sign
ed an order terminating the leases or
the subsidiary shipbuilding plants. In

Shipbuilding company the properties
of the subsidiary shipbuilding compa--
MES were acquired and then leased
back to the subsidiary companies for
one year. with a proviso by which they
may be terminated at a five -day notice

sist of the earnings of the plant. In

EPWORTH LEAGUE
DELEGATES WILL
LEAVE TONIGHT
Party Numbering Over 500 Will
Travel to Detroit via the Mil
waukee Road-Excursion In
cIudes Delightful Lake Trip.

More than 500 delegates will leave
for the Epworth league convention at
Detroit at 80 o'clock tonight on
special Milwaukee train. The party Will
consist of delegates from all sections
of the state, and is the largest crowd
ever carried by any of the st. raul
Chicago lines to q church society meet
ing.
The train will be in charge of North
western Passenger Agent w. B. Dixon,
who will accompany the leaguers as
far as Milwaukee, where they Will be
turned over to the Crosby Steamship
company for transportation to Grand
Haven, Mich The trip has been ar
ranged so that the delegates will have
a day boat ride across Lake Michigan,
arriving in Grand Haven in ample time
to make connections with the Grand
Trunks night express for Detroit.
The special Milwaukee train will
consist of two baggage cars, two day
coaches and ten sleepers. At La Crosse
two sleepers will be added to the equip
ment to care for the delegates from
Southern Minnesota. An extra car will
be attached to the Iowa q Minnesota
division train, which leaves st. Paul
this afternoon at o'clock. All the del
egates from the towns on this division

regular excursion train VIII De met az
midnight Rastus Rovig, city ticket
agent, and L. K. Mcconnell, travelling
passenger agent, will be in charge of
the Southern Minnesota delegations.
They will travel with the train as far
as Milwaukee.
While the Milwaukee will carry
practically the entire Epworth league
delegation, having been selected as the
official line, the other st. Paul Chicago
roads are anticipating large excur-
sion business to Detroit and Chicago.
Low rates have been placed in force
and the advance sale of tickets yester-
day indicates large travel eastward for
the next few days A rate of $3.50 has
been made to Detroit and return, While
the $40 fare to Chicago and back be-
comes effective today. On both tickets
the return limitation is thirty days.
The Great Western, Wisconsin Cen
trail and Burlington will all run addi-
tional equipment on their regular trains

troit. That line is making a 1915 rate
for the round trip, which includes de-
lightful lake voyage.

MAY MERGE FOUR ROADS.
Milwaukee Is Said to Be In a combina
tlon Scheme.

An interesting story of a speculative
character has come out of Kansas City
relative to possible mergers that affect
the future of four Western roads. The
suggestion Is made that in all probability
the Milwaukee, and the Missouri, Kansas
d. Texas will be combined, and a union
erected of the Alton and the Kansas City
Southern. The proposition is discussed
as follows:
The Milwaukee and Katy lines are both
controlled by the Rockefellers and the
Rock Island 'Frisco's combined system is
the formidable rival of the roads now pro-
posed to be consolidated. The Milwaukee
has completed plans for extensive termin-
ais in Kansas City and work is being
rushed to establish a fast passenger and
freight service between Kansas City and
Chicago.
The Katy. now enters Kansas City on
Frisco tracks by virtue of a lease that
expires next year. The Katy engineers
are working on a plan for the Katy to
enter Kansas City by extending its own
If the deal between the Milwaukee and
Katy is completed the Katy can get into
Kansas City over the Belt line tracks
owned by the Santa Fe, the Frisco and
The union of the two lines would com
plete a new north and south system
which would be a formidable rival to the
ROCK island'Frisco combination. The
milwaukee, runs network of lines in the
states lying between Lake Michigan an6
the upper Missouri river territory, with a
dlrect southwark to Kansas City. The
Katy has a similar system in the Southern
states, with terminals on the north in
Kansas City and St Louis, and an arm
reaching. to Galveston onsthe Gulf Al
alliance between the two lines would be
decidedly advantageous
The Rockefellers are on friendly terms
with the Missouri Pacific and will joir
hands with the Goulds in an effort to keen
the business from the Rock Island Frisco
and the Santa Fe systems the two lines
which are formidable rivals of the line
controlled by the Goulds and Rockefeller
interests.
A closer alliance of the Alton and the
Kansas City Southern lines has long beer
considered logical proposition. The de-
lay has. been occasioned by the fact thai
the voting trust of the Southern line does
not expire until early in 1904, when it is
likely the consolidation will take place.
The Alton has a triangle system, with
Kansas City. Chicago and st. Louis on the
points of the triangle, and the Kansas CITY
Southern runs straight as the crow flies
to Port Arthur on the Gulf coast.
