Report That New Haven Road is to
 Sell.
 Rumors were current yesterday to the effect that the New Haven road con- templates a sale of it's New York On tario and Western stock to the New York, Central, but this was given scanty credence in this city. Ever since the New Haven stole a march on the trunk lines by capturing control of the New York, Ontario and Western, efforts have been made to get the local road to give up its control. President Mellen has said that he is willing to do so for certain concessions. These concessions are understood to be related to terminal privileges in and about New York. Ii is not matter of dollars and cents but a matter of privileges at the New York terminal, according to the best infor- mation obtainable.
 Conferences between MT. Mellen and the New York Central officers are known to have taken place, but theii result is as yet a mystery. The contro of the Ontario and western by the New Haven is one of the most important pieces of railroad strategy in recent years, and is worth a great deal to the New Haven from the standpoint oi power as transportation factor.

 At the meeting of the state and coun- ty officers ofthe A. Q. H, plans were made for parade which will be the largest a single organization has ever held in the city The parade will be held in this city during August, 19OS and though it is over a year before the event. plans for it have already begun. One of the county officers said yester- day that of the ninety-fve hundred members of the A. o. H. in Connecticut it was expected that seven thousand would participate in the parade. Last year when the state organization met at Hartford fully seventy-five thou sand people, were attracted to the city for the parade. It is expected that many more will attend the parade in this city.
 An interesting event of the meeting was the vote to pay out of the funds of the A. O. H. the board of all members who through reverses are compelled to enter the charitable organizations throughout the state. This is a new move on the part of the organization and one which will be greatly appreci- ated.

THE KNOW HOW
To Feed Children and Get Good Re-
 suits.

There are more nervous persons made 80 by undigested food lying in the stomach than the average individual would suppose.
 If food remains undigested in the stomach it begins to ferment, set up gas, and a large portion is thus con- verted Into poison.
 That's why imperfeetly digested food may and often does cause irritation of the nerves and stupor of the mind brain and nerves are really poisoned.
 My daughter had complained for some time of distressed feeling in the stomach, after eating, which set me thinking her diet was not right" writes an anxious and intelligent mother.
 She had been fond of cereals, but had never tried Grape-Nuts. From reading the account of tois predigested food it seemed reasonable to try Grape Nuts for her case.
 'The results were really wonderful. The little brain that seemed at times unable to do it's work took up new life and vigor. Every morning now, before going to school, she eats the crisp lit- tie morsels, and is now completely and entirely well; she seems to have a new lease on life-no more distresses in the stomach nor headache, but sound and well every way" Name given by Pos tum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich.

Refuses to Transmit MESSAGES

BY Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-THE Western
Union Telegraph company accepted
messages for all parts of Jamaica yes
terday subject to the senders' risk. As
to the messages from the island the
company is experiencing much the same
difftculty that confronted It during tho
early hours of the San Francisco dis
aster.
The city of Kingston is so greatly
disorganized that it is next to impos-
sible to find the persons to whom mes
sages arc addressed, while the mes
senger service into the city from the
company's sub-station, about five miles
from Kingston, is necessarily slow.
Many of the messages which came
through from the island yesterday were
filed at the sub-station, but apparently
great many people made thirty mile
trip across country to Holland Bay.
AS nearly as the company rcan de-
termine, the employees in the cable of
flee at Kingston, after the destruction
of the building followed. lines out of
the city and tested them until they
were finally able to obtain a connection
with Holland Bay. The company has
not been able to gain any definite in
formation regarding the casualties or
damages at Kingston. It's lines run
only to Havana and any bulletins that
come to them are sent by the employees
or the Cuban Submarine Cable COM
pany.
The Commercial Gable company re-
fused yesterday to accept any mes
sages for Jamaica. It's cable is broken
somewhere near the Jamaican shore.

SPLIT OVER WORD "MoNeoLlAN"
Statement of Facts Is Not Agreed to
by Attorneys

BY Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 17.-That the
suits filed by the government in the
state supreme court and in the United
States circuit court in the Japanese
school question are not based upon an
amicably arranged statement of facts
agreed to between the federal and local
authorities, and contain many points
objected to by the latter was learned
tonight
City Attorney William G.. Burke to-
night declared that after a conference
between himself and United States Dis
trict Attorney Devlin the latter was
called to Washington for consultation
with Attorney General Bonaparte and
upon his return here filed today's suit
without consulting the city attorney
and without regard to the statement of
facts agreed upon.
Burke declared that the very points
to which the local authorities took OBJ
lection and which United States At
torney Devlin agreed to waive in the
statement of facts agreed upon-the
question as to whether a japanese is a
Mongolian and statement that 1t
would be hardship for all Japanese
children regardless of residence to at
tend the oriental school have been in
serted in the documents filed by Mr..
Devlin today.
To forestall a possible adverse de-
cision from the courts that the Jap
anese are not Mongolans and therefore
do not come under the state statute
providing for the segregation of the
latter in separate schools, City Attor-
ney Burke has prepared an amendment
to the code of the state of California to
include the word Japanese and will
leave for Sacramento next Saturday to
have it introduced in the Legislature.
AS amended by Burke the section will
read
"And also to establish separate
schools for Indian children, Japanese
children, Malay children, Korean chill
dren and all children of the Mongolian
race.
when such separate schools are es-
tablished Indian, Chinese, Malay, Kor-
can, Japanese and all Mongolian chill
dren must not be admitted into any
other school"
Il do not propose to have this ques-
tion determined upon such a narrow
and unimportant ISSUE" said City At
torney Burke tonight
