NIaniIa's Undesirable Population Is
Being Shipped to America.

San Francisco, Feb. 5.-When the
transport Logan arrived today from
Manila the police authorities who had
been previously notified took off from
the vessel number of men who bore
the reputation of desperate characters.
The men We're photographed and eXhib-
tied to the various police watches. When
the Logan left Manila she carried SO
men who had been ordered deported by
the secret service officials of that city.
It is said that the policy Of the secret
service men is to rid Manila of her
criminal worthless population and the
transports are being used to take them
back to America. The deported men
are all whites.
On several previous transports men
who had been accused and convicted of
serious crimes were landed in San
Francisco after the police had been APP
prised of their arrival. Among those
who arrived today were men who had
served terms for murder, robbery and
embezzlement. When the Logan arrived
at Honolulu where there was scarcity
of sailors, IS of the depOrted men who
had been seamen were shipped vOlun-
tarily on the ship Phillips, destined for
Philadelphia. After the police here pho
tographed and exhibited the new arrIV-
ais they were given their liberty.
On board the Logan were the first
squadron of the second cavalry, head
quarters and band and full compile
ment of caSualS The cavalry came
in command of Col. F. K. Ward. After
a few days rest here they will go to
Fort Assinniboine Montana. Among the
passengers was General Butler D. Price
| General Price retired from the army at
his own request, having seen AZ years
in the service.
During the voyage W. NJ. Kamolge
died of tumor on the brain. He belong
ed to the insular service and was i'll
when he started for home. MajorsH. L.

Hartman Has secured Control OF the
Illinois Central.

Chicago Feb. 5.-The Reeord-Her-
aid today says
1T has been known in Chicago for
several months that E. II. Hartman
was planning to enlarge his holdings Of
Illinois Central SO as 10 gain absolute
control and thus to join it with the
Union Pacific system.
The belief in New York that the deal
has been completed created little sur
prise and several Illinois Central Off
GERS said While they were not acquaint-
ed with the latest details of the merger.
they had reasons to feel that Mr.. Har-
riman had become the dominating fac
tor in the company.
One of the most prominent of these
officials who is a director and has been
associated with the Illinois Central for
many years made the following state
ment:
For weeks [ may say months. it
has been understood in Wall street that
Mr. Hartman and the interests with
which he is allied have been grad
ually working to secure control of the
Illinois Central. 1t is true that he OBJ
tanned large blocks of stock and that
he organized the Railroad Securities
company to further his plan.
Il notice it is said that the Hartman
party has obtained 81 per cent of Illi-
nois Central stock. 1 will not deny
this. but would call it a pretty large
percentage They would not have to
get that much to obtain control
ger would mean to the Illinois Central
and to the Hartman lines west-the
Union Pacific system including the
Southern Pacific and all its leased
roads. and he said: well, as a starter
it would be cheap operation of several
lines. I suppose the operating depart
ments would be Joined and that would
reduce the general administrative ex-
penses. This, however, is only prob
lematical and is based on the pre-
sumption that the Union Pacific has
really gained control of our road"
The Illinois Central runs as far west
as Omaha and connects with the Union
Pacific. Heretofore the Chicago &
Northwestern and latterly the Chicago,
Milwaukee & St Paul have been al
lied with the Union Pacific and the
merger of this score would probably
bring the Illinois Central and Union
Pacific into so much closer relations
that other roads would perhaps take a
secondary place.
Again. the Southern Pacific runs
into New Orleans and the new com
bination would be helpful to that line
as We'll as to the Illinois Central The
Illinois Central, however. has been al
/ lied with the Southern Pacific for
years. If the New York deal has been
made these relations would be even
more friendly"
