CHIEF CHOSEN.
R. B. Brown of GAINESVILLE Will
Succeed Corporal Tanner
A Newspaper Man.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi. Aug. H.
Commander in chief, r. Il. Brown
GAINESVILLE, o.; senior vice commander,
William III. Armstrong, Indianapolis
junior vice commander, Il. b. Fenton'
Detroit; chaplain in chief, Archbishop
John Ireland, st. Paul; surgeon gen
eral, w. II. johnson, Lincoln, Neb.
The foregoing officers were elected Mt
the annual meeting of the Grand Ar
my of the Republic. All other officers
are staff appointments and will be an
nonced later by the new commander
in chief.
The strongest opponents Of Mr..
Brown for commander in chief were
c. G. Burton of Missouri and Captain
L. H. Coney of Kansas. Both of these
withdrew when it was seen that the
election of Mr.. Brown was n certainty.
Brown was then chosen by acclama-
ton. Several candidates were nOmi-
mated for senior and junior vice COM
manders, but at the last instant all
withdrew in favor of Armstrong for
the senior position and Fenton for the
junior place, and both men were chos-
en- unanimously. Archbishop Ireland
had no rivals for chaplain in chief.
After the elections the place of hold
ing the next encampment was taken
up, and the New York delegation pre-
scented Saratoga. An adjournment was
taken before Il vote was reached, and
other cities that desire the encamp-
ment will have an opportunity TO pre-
sent their invitations today. The SEN
timent is strong in favor of Saratoga.
The new commander in chief Of the
Grand Army, II. b. Brown, was born
in 1915 and has always lived in Ohio.
He enlisted in the Fifteenth Ohio in
fantry at the age of sixteen years and
served in the Fourteenth army corps
in the Army of the Cumberland until
he was mustered out in 1864. He then
re-enlisted as Il veteran soldier and
served as such until the end of the
war. He was a private throughout the
first three years of his service and then
became a noncommissioned officer. He
has always been active in the work of
the Grand Army. Mr.. Brown is now
editor Of the GAINESVILLE Courier.

SELLS OUT IT'S
TROLLEY LINES
New Haven Road DispOSes of
Its Electric Lines Many Mil
lions Are Involved.

BOSTON, Aug. 17,-Details of the
transfer by the New York, New Haven
and Hartford Railroad company of
street car systpmsi valued Mt many
millions Of dollars leaked out in this
city, and, although official confirma-
ton in railroad circles is lackng, it
was learned that the railroad company
had taken steps TO divest itself of prac-
tically all of it's street ear property in
southern New England. The transfer,
which follows closely on the announc-
ed intention Of tile Massachusetts au-
thoritles to retain in this state control
Of Massachusetts street railway corpo-
rations, has beeai9made TO an associa-
ton knownias The New England Sc
curity Investment company.
According TO, Ipfoumation obtained
here, the transfer is said to involve the
street car lines owned by the New Ha-
ven road in both Massachusetts and
Connecticut, with connecting lines to
Rhode Island and New York. A report
from New Haven, however, indicated
the probability that the Connecticut
lines might not figure in the transfer,
due, ii was said, to the fact that UNI
der the charter of the Consolidated
Railway company, holding company of
the New York, New Haven and Hart
ford Railroad company, such n trans
fer would be unnecessary. There was
no leading official of the railroad in
this city who could state the exact
n L. 1I IA
unof1cially, however, the railroad COM
PAM had disposed of its entire group
of trolley lines, and later this news
was confirmed by an ~undoubted au-
thority, with the comment that its pub
LEGATION was premature.
For over three years the New York,
New Haven and Hartford Railroad
company has been acquiring street
railways in the state of Massachusetts,
and recently the holdings of the COM
pany reached such proportions that
the matter was made the subject of Il
special message by Governor Guild to
the legislature on the eve of Its adj
journment last June. Attorney Gen
eral Dana Malone also interested him
self in the matter, and, acting in ac-
cordance with the views of the gov
Z ernor, he drafted and submitted to the
legislature a bill intended to prevent Il
continuance in this state of the control
OF the trolley car companies by steam
railroad systems. A brief considera-
fIon of the matter by the legislative
committee on street railways brought
about the suggestion that II test case
be made. and the attorney general set
about preparing n case which would
eventually receive Il ruling from the
MASSACHUSETTS supreme court. While
this Tease was being prepared the at
topfey general, desiring certain infor-
M ktion in connection with the car
mes owned by the railroad, asked
President Mellen, through Chairman
Jackson of the state railroad commits
sion, to furnish it to him.
The information asked for by Mr..
Malone was transmitted to him, and
almost simultaneously the fact that
the railroad company had transferred
It's holdings became known.

Secretary Taft was before the Senate
committee on the Philippines yesterday, and
was examined by Senator Hale concerning
the benefactions the Filipino people have
received from Congress. The senator said

concerning the obligations of the United

his desire to balance the debit and credit

Indebted TO the other. He said that II the
account is found to be in favor of the
Filipinos ii does not seem worth while to
legislate further to disturb industries in the
United States. The administration OF ths
military and civil forces of the United
States since Manila was taken, in August,
1895, was reviewed by the senator's eXami-
nation of the Secretary.

Senator Hale called attention 30 the small
exports of the United States to the Philip
pine Islands in comparison TO exports from
other countries TO the islands, and Secre-
tary Taft admitted that these Indicate that
the United States portion of the Filipino
trade SIS, has been and will be SMALL
He explained this by saying that the Fill
Pine people can buy foodstutfs from a
