Denial Of the Armed Alliance Story
From Paris

denied that any negotiations are afoot look
ing to new triple alliance with France,
England and Italy as the principals. Not
only have no exchanges been made, but the
chances are that they never will be begun
unless hostilities should become imminent
The advent Of NJ. Clemenceau as premier
lessons the possibility Of such a step be-
coming necessary. While he is devoted

of the Franco-British understanding, he is
a still greater friend Of peace.

FIGHTING FOR SUPREMACY
Rumor That Hill and Gould Are
Both Interested in Butte Line
to San Francisco.
Especial to The Herald.)

Boise. Ida. Sept. Pit is reported here
that J. J. Hill has taken over the rail-
way project known as the San Francisco
Idaho & Montana, organized for the pur-
pose of building a line from San Fran
cisco TO Butte. This company recently
announced il had made arrangements TO
build a line from the Snake river to a
connection with the Western Pacific near
Winnemucca, and il has been making
some show of starting work westward
from Caldwell. 1t has always been
thought that if there were anything in
il, Gould or Hill or both were some
where in the background. When Donald
Grant came in and became president of
the company this impression was deep
ened Now it is said Hill has taken it
over The story goes that he made an
offer soon after the first stories respect
ing Hartman control of the Milwaukee
came out 1t is further said that Harri-
man made an offer soon afterward but
Hilrs offer had been accepted. w. f..
FOran. one of the promoters is on his
way east and IL is said he has gone to
st. Paul or Chicago to close the matter
up. The theory is that both Hill and
Gould are in the deal, the plan being to
give the Western Pacific direct outline
INTO Montana and points east and to af-
ford Hill a short line into San Fran
cisco.
