studies that he was sent to Sc. Joseph'ai
college to be educated for the priest-s
hood.
But the young man had no taste for
theology, and 1t was not long before he
began to manifest decided preference
for the law. He was admitted to the
bar in 1881, and four years later he
took his seat in the assembly. He was
elected seven times and speedily be-
came power in Erie county. He ac-
quired the reputation of being an In
tense partisan and in those early days
was ready to advocate with all his force
and ability any measure that was de-
signed to secure party supremacy. In,
1891 Mr.. Sheehan was made speaker Of
the assembly, and the following year
he was elected lieutenant governor on
the ticket with Roswell p. Flower. H1
was member of the Democratic state
committee from 1889 to 1893 and was
first named for the national COMMITTEES
in 1891.
After the disastrous autumn election
Of 1893 Mr.. Sheehan resolved to resign
his party leadership In Erie county and
remove to New York city. His term as
lieutenant governor expired the fol-
termination to seek new field from the
speakers desk in the senate. He said
that he had given all his strength and
substance for party aggrandizement
and that he should be obliged to leave
Albany In order to make money enough
to pay his debts. He went to New York
and opened a law ONCE in partnership
with Charles A. Coffin, professor at
Cornell university, who had been legal
adviser to Governor Flower.
Mr.. Sheehan confesyes frankly that
he has forsworn his former political
methods and has provided himself with
an entirely new set. "Frankness. can
dor and honesty pay" he declares. AS
long as l live shall never again be
factionfst in politics. 1t does not count /
for advantage in the long rum.

CO Companies Completed.

New York, Oct. Meetings OF the
American, the Consolidated and the
Continental Tobacco Companies We're
held in Jersey City yesterday for ac-
ton Oh the agreement for the merger
Of consolidation OF three companies
which had been adopted by the direc-
tors of dhe Consolidated Tobacco
Company on September ., 1904. The
plan submitted proposes Il consolida-
ton of the three concerns with to-
tai bond and stock liability of about
$3.50, 100000, something like $4,000,
900 less than the aggregate Of that OF
the three companies at present. it is
proposed that all of the present con-
solidated tobacco companies collateral
trust bonds shall be withdrawn ana
that the only bonds to be left out
standing shall be the 6 per cent and
the per cent direct obligations OF
the new company.
The first meeting held was that OF
stockholders of the American Tobacco
Company and there were 1,15707i
shares voted In favor of the merger to
405 against 1t.
w. w. Fuller, counsel for the Ameri-
can Tobacco Company. who presided
said that he had heard that an fnjunc-
ton had been gotten out yesterday In
Trenton, but that he had not seen the
papers as they had not been served
on him.
At the meeting of the stockholders
of the Consolidated Tobacco Company
which followed that of the American
Tobacco Company, action on the mer-
ny oo{n
H. The postponement was taken In
order to await the outcome of the suit
against the combination.
Only few shares of the Continental
Tobacco Company were voted against
the merger plan when the stockholders
Of that company met this afternoon
while S69,546 shares were voted In ia
vor of the proposition.
The adjournment Of the meeting of
the Consolidated company's stock
holders was agreed on by those In
charge of the proposed consolida ton,
it being thought best that that par
ticular meeting be held over without
action at this time, although 1t was
said that the injunction had not yet
been served.
Trenton, N. j., Sept. 30.-Vice Chan
celor Pitney in an order made In Jer-
sey City Wednesday and filed here to-
day restrained the proposed meeting at
Jersey City today for the carrying out
of the merger of the American Tobac-
co Company, Consolidated Tobacco
Company and the Continental Tobacco
Company, pending disposition of the
rule to show cause granted by Vice
Chancellor Pitney and which is re-
turnable at Newark on October IL.
The proceedings to restrain the mer-
ger were instituted by julius B. lkel-
heimer of New York Henry Kessel OF
Arcverne, N. Y, and John M. Rankin
of Jersey City. The complainants are
holders Of bonds of the Consolidated
Tobacco Company and claim that
their holdings would be injured by the
carrying out of the proposed merger.
