explained yesterday. are being shown

are needed will be explained and with
conditions understood by the leading
investors, the placing OF bonds VIII

Germ Is requesting its members to
agree TO an extension of the UNDER
writing syndicate.
Big things are shaping up in the
Gould system of railroads. II is be-
lieged that with the Western Pacific
completed, the Denver & Rio Grande
and Rio Grande Western will he
merged into one title. Gould owns
both D. a r. e. and X. G. W. now,
and one set of managers conducts
the affairs of both. but the two lines
have never been formally merged.
II is understood this action Is TO he
taken soon. The Rio Grande West
eru. with its rich coal land holdings
and other valuable possessions was a
big dividend payer from the start.
and il Is really the Rio Grande West
ern which made the Western Pacific
a possibility and which is now max
ing the Salt Lake-Oakland project a
reality. With the new line built. the
Rio Grande Western will be ready to
lose its identity under the title OF
Denver & Rio Grande Goulds plan
is to have a strong transcontinental
line with steamship connections, TO
compete with Hartman interests.
With the Western Pacific complet-
ed Gould will have over II ,0o0 miles
of railroad. traversing 80 states As
early as 1903, Gould admitted that
he hoped some day to effect huge
consolidation of all his lines. The
some day" would be that day which
saw all his lines completed. The
Western Pacific is Gould's biggest
and latest venture. This is TO be
completed in about year, so the first
step Gould will make toward realiZ-
ing his dream of several years VIII
be the consolidation Of the two Rio
Grandes. An issue of 81 100000
worth of bonds will be agreed upon
by both companies. OF this sum
probably $S0.000.000 will be used
to wipe away Indebtedness of the
merging concerns and the remainder
will be used for necessary improve
ments. Blair a. Co. and the other
firms which underworld the 100000
O00 bond issue of the Western Pacific
will advance between S1O,OOO,0OO
to $4,000, 900 To the Rio Grande so
it can make good the deficiency in
the sum raised for the construction
OF the Western Pacific and will re-
eeive In return more bonds of the
merger issue
With such steps as these coming,
IL is natural that members of the big
banking firms should be travelling
over the Gould lines. With bonds
placed, plenty of money to push all
work ahead will have been obtained,
and the wonderful transformations
worked about Hartman terminals
here will be duplicated around the
Gould terminal a bit to the south

A SERMON ON DIVORCE.
Bishop IiIlis Declares 1t Is as Bad as
POlygamy.

Leayenworth, March 23.-Bishop
Thomas F. Lillis. of Kansas CITY,
Kan, delivered a sermon on marriage
and divorce to a large audience at the
cathedral in Leavenworth SUNDAY
night. He denounced the divorce evil
in the United States. Bishop L1ll1s
said in part:
"The curse of divorce, is like
mighty torrent spreading destruction
along it's path. The modern evil of
divorce is running the family anu
spreading poison and contaglon
throughout the whole land. Marriage
has no binding force and When the
very foundation of society IS shaken
it is Impossible to prevent disaster.
Every one having the welfare of his
country at heart must view Win
alarm the terrible plague spots on our
social and family life.
For trifiing causes men and women
humiliate themselves and their
families by appearing in court and
asking the law to interfere and give
them single bliss again. They recount
for the public ear the sources of all
their misunderstanding and with
shameless audacity they insist on be-
ing freed from the bond they made
to be faithful unto death. The family
as we understand it and as we see it
in thousands of homes is the product
of the Christian faith and where re-
ligious influences guide the home OF

vail.

the fairest and freest portion or the
universe. Can these unfortunates be
of any service to society? Are not the
children of these unhappy couples to
be pitied? Many of them become
wards Of the state and our orphan
asylums are filled with the children
of homes broken up by divorce.
"In the county and city of Leaven-
worth S29 marriage licenses have been
issued in the last twelve months, and
during this same time 116 couples
have applied for legal separation One
midst has proven a failure and the
parties to the failures have applied
to the courts to do that for them
which is contrary to the very best in
terests Of society. What hurts the
family wounds the state and society

Mormonism in a modified form? Nor

man and one woman and this union

are opposed in this teaching and they
are likewise opposed to the real ends
of marriage, the mutual love of the

PANIC ON THE e."
Section of Third Rail Ripped OF
Hangs Dangling In the Air.

New York. March 23.-Seventy-five
feet of ripped off third rail dangling
on the Brooklyn line on the Brooklyn
Elevated railroad last night caused
numerous minor explosions. as it came
highly charged into contact with wires
and metal fixtures, while the "L' car
that left the tracks and detached the
current conveying rail in the process
hung suspended in perilous position
in midair. threatening every second to
topple over into the street.
When the car stopped on the edge
of the structure. there was a rush for
the rear door. causing a crush in
which several persons were bruised
mad their clothing torn. The guards,
however, kept the gates closed and
would not allow the passengers to
leave the train until another one was
attached to the rear. The suspended
car was then hauled back out of dam
ger. A police guard formed about tn 9
rail on the street and kept the crowds
back until the current was turned off
and electricians had made hurried re-
pairs. The entire line was tied up for
an hour and a half.

MUSIC STOPS A PANIC.
Audience About to Stampede as Re-
suit of Fire Scare.

New York, March 23.-There came
near being panicky times in the Grand
Central palace yesterday when the
crowd of more than four thousand
East siders who had foregathered to
do honor to the memory of Gregory
Gershuni, caught sight of fireman
hacking away at the woodwork of an
upper box from which a little wisp
of smoke was trailing. A woman or
two screamed and couple of others
tainted, but just as the crowd was
getting FESTIVE the orchestra struck up
with a revolutionary air that soon
had them weeping with patriotism
and quite oblivious to the sound of
the ak. The little smudge,
for which the police explana-
ton was cigarets. delayed the exer-
cises about ten minutes. The meet
ing was in charge of the New York
committee of the Russian Social Rev
olutionist party, Of which Gershuni
was the founder, and it was attended
by revolutionists, socialists and some
anarchists, all bent on doing honor to
the patriot who died in Zurich last
week

Burglars Enter -Four Houses in Fash
iOnable Quarter of New York.

New York, March 23.-Burg1ars en-
tered four residences in the vicinity Of
Fifth avenue and Eighty sixth street,
in the heart of the fashionable East
side district early yesterday. They fail
ed, however, to get away with anything
OF much value in three of them. From
the fourth, that of George o. Thatcher,
they took about $500 worth of gold
spoons and $500 worth of small jewelry.
They jumped from a high fence in the
rear of the house of Benjamin Thaw,
uncle of Harry K. Thaw, to the fire
escape on the rear of the Thatcher res
idence, boldly carrying their plumber
from the last named residence out the
front door under the light of a street
lamp directly opposite the house
The other houses entered were those
of Colonel Albert E. Hilton Mrs N.
F. Dana and Mrs. Sidney Smith. They
were not disturbed in the Smith house,
but apparently took nothing, while
alarms given by servants frightened
them from the other two. Their dis
regard of the police was shown by the
fact that they scaled the Thatcher
fence to the barking of a bulldog in the
yard of the Thaws, one of them drop
ping a glove into the Thaw yard, how
ever, for the animal to chew.

PLANTS DIE IN Them.
But People Exist in Rooms Devoid OF
Light and Fresh Air.

New York, March 23.-In a speech
before the West side Y. M. c. A last
night, Jacob A. Riis declared that I'M
der the new tenement house law,
passed to mitigate the evils of con-
gestion in the slums 200 rooms
are left in tenement houses in this
city to which neither light nor air can
penetrate. 'It has been found" he
said, ''that plants cannot live in those
dens. Yet we expect children to grow
up there. Do you think good citizens
can spring from such homes?' he in
quired.
Mr.. Riis took exceptions to efforts
to amend the tenement house statutes
by several bills now pending in the
Albany legislature.
''The Gilchrist BILL he said, Twill
permit bakeries to do business again
at night in tenement Easements, thus
exposing thousands Of families to
death by fire. The Strauss bill per-
| mits the occupation of unventilated
rooms"
He believed these and other bills
! which he claimed would add to the
evils of the congested districts ought
to be defeated.
