Battle Of the Giants.

New York, April 16.-The Journal
says: Either J. p. Morgan, James j.
Hill and their allies or E. H. Harri-
man and the Rockefellers will be in
sole control of Union Pacific after May
5th. On that date the stockholders
of the Union Pacific company will
vote upon the new issue of 100000
900 preferred stock, which has been
approved by the board of directors,
and one of the most bitter battles in
the history of the war for the control
of railroads, which has been going on
for three years between the two fac
tions, will be decided.
The Morgan men declare they now
own control of this system and that
Harriman's purpose in asking that
$10O,0O0,O0O in new stock be issued
is to give him chance to get hold
of enough of this new stock to get
back control which Morgan has bought
unknown to him.
Hartman two weeks ago discovered
his control was in danger and he call
ed meeting of the board of directors.
A $10O,0O0,O0O stock issue was then
decided upon. One big Wall street
operator in talking of this fight said:
There is no doubt that this contest
is the greatest that has ever taken
place in Wall street."

ter how silly or wicked. will scarcely
ever take the initiative with a clean
man. There must always be an In
vitation on his part, and If a man
is high above the thought Of sin a
frivolous woman will not tempt him.
"A pastor who will allow himself
to be approached by woman in this
sense is a weak, lustful scoundrel.
It has been said that it is impossible
for q minister not to have had the
temptation Of these experiences, but
that is a lie."
He also urged the importance Of
pastoral visits, and said that on this
point he was going to talk plainly
and might have to apologize for do
ing 80 before such large audience.
The best time for pastoral calls, he
said, was in the evening, when a wife
was surrounded by her husband and
children. An afternoon call, when a
woman was alone, he rather frowned
on. He urged the young ministers to
talk sparingly to women and warned
them against violating condolences
placed in them as ministers, which
admitted them to the home of the
best. He declared that a man who
violated or betrayed this confidence
was not a minister, but a scoundrel.

SPREAD OF
M0RMONISM
PREDICTION MADE eY MRS, DU.
BOTS At NATIONAL coUN-
Gil OF WOMEN.

Washington, April 13.-Mrs. Mary
Wood Swift and Mrs. Belinda s. Bal
ley, both of San Francisco, were to-
day elected president and correspond
ing secretary. respectively, of the Ma
tional Council of Women.
A resolution agreed upon and re-
ported to the council is as follows:
Whereas, The family is the unit
OF civic organization and purity, and
upon it the safety of the state de-
ponds; therefore, be it
Resolved, That to secure fidelity
and justice for all in the state there
must be purity in the home in which
the family is builded.
Resolved, That any practice which
undermines the foundation of the fam
lily life should be strongly deprecat'
ed; and that since polygamous mar
riages are terrible evil that threat
ems to destroy the home and state
institutions of our country, the peo
pie should by petition and otherwise
protest against the seating OF any
man in our national congress, or al
lowing any man to hold such seat
who may practice or subscribe to the
doctrine Of polygamy."
The resolution was adopted by the
council, but until after vigorous dis
cussion. Miss Anthony participated
in the debate, advising against any
reference to action by congress on
the ground that, as women are not
allowed to participate in political mat
tiers, they should give no advice or
subjects affecting politics. Mrs. Sen
ator Dubois predicted that unless
steps are taken to obstruct the spread
Of Mormonism, the Mormons in ter
years would elect ten United States
senators and thus control the balance
of power in that body.
Only three votes were cast agains
the resolution.
On motion Of Rev. Anna Shaw, pres
ident of the Equal Suffrage associa
ton, the council decided to appoin
standing committee on the subjec
Of political equality and civil rights
for women. This is considered al
important step, because the council
always has been noted for it's conserv
atism.

Is ADMITTED To BAIL.
But Mrs. Chadwick Will Have to Give
Additional Bonds.

Cincinnati, April 17.-Mrs. Cassie
L. Chadwick, who has been convicted
and sentenced to prison for ten years
on the charge of procuring money by
false pretenses, was today admitted
to bail in the sum of $1,000 by United
States Circuit Judge Lurton, after con-
sultation with the other judges of the
circuit.
She is already under heavy bonds
in other cases, and the $4,000 is addi.
tional and in no way affects the other
cases. The bail is allowed pending
appeal proceedings which are to come
up next October before the United
States circuit court of appeals.
Judge Wing, counsel for Mrs. Chad.
wick, said it was not yet certain
whether bail could be secured nor
could he tell just how soon the pa
pers in the appeal could be filed.
District Attorney Sullivan was in
court to look after the interests of the
government when Judge Wing ap-
piled for bail and opposed the request
that it be fixed at $4,000, which was
the amount desired by Mrs. Chad
wick's attorney. After comforting
with Judges Severing and Richards,
Judge Lurton placed the bail at the
figure stated.

Teddy Junior is FIirtatious,

Roanoke, Va, April 16-Theodore
Roosevelt, Jr., was one of party of
lads who stood for 80 minutes with
their faces in a corner while the rest
of their companions enjoyed dance
at one of the hospitable homes at
Abingdon, where he had been visiting
for the past week. Teddy's compan-
ions were the sons of Douglas Robin
son, of New York City. and Dan Trigg,
Jr.. of Arlington. This humiliation on
the part of the youngsters was prin-
cipally for flirting with school girls
at Stonewall Jackson institute in that
city, and was imposed by Miss Kate
Hunt. principal of that institution.
During the progress of the recep.
ton mentioned Miss Hunt dropped in,
and upon being introduced to the
guilty boys asked the hostess what
she was to do with the youngsters
for flirting with her girls. When as
sured that the girls would be relieved
from punishment, young Roosevelt
and his companions agreed to Miss
Hunts sentence and stood with their
faces in corner for 80 minutes, while
the remainder of the young folks
danced.

The Glimpse.


The winter sunlight waned. The
shadows lay
Gauntly along the silent thorough
fare
Between the ranks of houses: the
chill air
Seemed Fastening the footsteps of the
day,
When through the hollow dark a slen-
der ray
Shone in yOn window niche, and
standing there
l saw thy face illumined by its
glare
For one glad moments glance-and
all was gray.
Such light the friars in some cathe.
dral aisle
Perchance have seen in angels
faces shine
At eve. Fain would | on loves altar
pile
Thine eyes the candles and that
niche the shrine
Make sacrifice of self to thee, who
art
Priestess and queen and mistress Of
my heart.

to Popular Diplomat.
London, April 15.-"Farewell, re-
joice, he goes back to his home with
his duty well and nobly done, taking
the universal respect and admiration
of kindred nation and his own"
Thus concluded Lord Chancellor
Salisbury's tribute at parting with
American Ambassador Choate, who

and who tonight was honored by the
greatest gathering of the bench and
bar in the history of the inns of court.
The attorney general, Sir R. B. Fin.
lay, seconded the toast, saying:
This is no ordinary occasion. New
er has worthier man occupied the
post of ambassador to Great Britain
and none has carried away deeper af.
lection. Never was there a more vel.
come guest at the Inns than this con-
summate advocate, great diplomatist
and general man of the world"
The assembly was an extraordinary
one in character, and numbered near
ly 400 members of the bench and bar,
including almost every leading jus.
tice and barrister in England.

Redding, CAL, April 15.-Consider.
able anxiety exists among the people
of Sisson and other places in the vi
cinity Of Mount Shasta over the very
strange actions of the mountain. For
several days distant rumblings have
been heard and the snow is melting
fast. Yesterday volcanic ashes and
lava like mud began to ooze through
the surface Of the earth at the end of
the town of Siss0n.
The flow gradually increased until
today it is pouring forth in several
places, like thickened paint. The re-
port comes from the other side of the
mountain that the McCloud Lumber
company's railroad track suddenly
sank in two places and the same flow
is noticeable.
While the mountain itself shows no
visible eruption, the signs are suffi-
cient to cause some alarm. Eleven
years ago the same conditions exist.

assessment, made public today by the
board of review, is on $3,000,000 WORTH
of real estate and $10000,000 worth Of
personal property. He will pay over
100000 into the county treasury. This
sum far exceeds that paid by any other
individual taxpayer in Chicago, and is
larger than any Mr.. Field has ever
been assessed before. Besides his taxes
in Chicago, the merchant prince every
year pays millions of dollars on rail-
road and industrial holdings in other
states and on property in all parts Of
the world
Never in the memory Of the men on
the board Of review has Mr.. Field
| asked to have the assessed value OF
his property reduced. Promptly and
quietly he has paid millions of dollars
into the public treasury.
Marshall Field himself, it is said,
cannot count his wealth. One hundred
million dollars is the most conserva-
tive estimate placed upon his riches,
while many declare $200,000000 is a
more correct figure.
"It is a pleasure to deal with Mar
shall Field,1 said one Of the county
officials today. His complaints are
! few, and when he does utter one it Is
just. He is fair and square and does
| his full duty to the people.
