All Between Pittsburg and New
Orleans Involved.
Conferences to Combine Interests
to Begin at Louisville Next
Week.
THE PLANS ARE OUTLINED

Cincinnati, o., Nov 1.-THE Or
ganization of a steamboat company
TO control. through lease or the ex-
change of stock. all the steamboat
lines operating on the Ohio river and
between Pittsburg and New Orleans,
will be taken up at a series OF con-
ferences to be held I'm Cincinnati,
beginning next week.
The plan was mapped out some
time ago. and the first step in the ne
gotiations was taken a week ago,
when Commodore F. A. Laidley sold
to other river interests all his White
Collar Line boats plying upstream.
The new company will carry about
81 100000 OF stock. About $780,
600 OF this will be needed TO take up
the property OF the various lines
known as the White Collar Line. Gin
cinnati and Portsmouth Packet com
pany. Memphis Packet company and
the Pittsburg and Cincinnati Packet
company.
The remaining stock will be de-
voted to building warehouses and au-
tomato docks and a number of light
draft steamers. The present boats
in some instances are OF such heavy
draft that they can only operate six
months In esch year.
BY building several smaller boats,
adapted TO running in shallow water.
the promoters contend that the cost
o. operation can be reduced. the coal
carrying business can be maintained
eight or ten months in each year and
the river traffic can be kept intact.
AT the present time and for some
months past. because Of the low stage
Of water which has prevailed in the
Ohio river nearly all summer, the
river traffic has suffered severely.
The situation has become so un-
satisfactory to riyermen that some
radical step was deemed necessary,
but no individual owner felt like un-
dertaking the move. II, therefore,
devolved upon the Independent inter
ests to take up the various plans and
bring the opposing interests together
This has been partially accomplished
and at Huntington, where the Ohio
River improvement association will
hold its annual session during the
present week. the plan will be UNI
folded to some of the rivermen who
have not yet been interested In the
movement
Following the Improvement asso-
citation meeting. a date will be set
for the first of the Cincinnati confer
ences.
The combination is aimed to in
clude all the lines, with the excep-
ton of the small boats. The latter
will not be invited, as the promoters
believe that by keeping them out nc
new independent small lines will be
started, which would be the case II
all were taken into the combination

FULTON MAY yer BE SAVED.

Opinion Expressed BY Captain Hard
wick, of the Steamer Alliance.
The steamer Alliance arrived Sun
day from San Francisco and way ports.
she was at Port orford when the Full
ton Went ashore and made every effort
to render assistance TO the unfortunate
steamer, which had run out of fuel.
While the Alliance was lying along
side the Fulton a heavy storm came
up and Captain Hardwick was com
PEELED to put to sea, fearful that the
gale would sweep his own vessel ashore
and endanger the lives OF the so pas
sengers aboard. Speaking of the
wreck OF the Fulton. Captain Hardwick
said:
From the way she lay on the beach
think the captain must have sailed
the vessel ashore. The deck load was
gone. which would indicate that its
lashings were cut TO tighten the ves-
sci and make her ride higher. while
the foresail was set and the mainmast
was gone. The stern was low in the
water, while the bow of the steamer
was high and dry on the sand beach !
at low tide.
From what have learned of the !
steamers situation. should think that |
the machinery could be saved and pos
sibly. when the weather is better in the /
spring. the balance of the steamer may
be saved. The fact that she is on a
sandy beach is in her favor. The sand
will probably bank up around her,
which will help to preserve her until
good weather, when she can be pulled
out to sea and towed to San Fran
cisco. The question is whether the
steamer will be worth what it will cost
to get her clear"
