JESSE KNIGHT
RETURNS HOME
Several Deals InCubating, but
Nothing Closed Up So Far
as Known.

Uncle Jesse knight and his private sec
rotary. R. T. Allen. returned from their
FLYING trip to New York Sunday night,
going direct 10 Provo. According to the
news that was wired from New \ ork late
last week Mr. Knight has been IN con-
ference with the International smelling
interests relative TO the reported pend
ing deal COR the Colorado, Iron Blossom
and the Tintic smelter. Nothing was ac-
complished, or at least no deals were
closed.
MIR. Knight was quoted yesterday as
having said that he had some negotla-
lions with the representatives of an Eng
fish crowd during his absence, but that
nothing had yet materislized to justify
the assertion that a deal would be con-
sunmated. All of which is ambiguous
and not a little mystifying in the light
of reports that have been SO persistently
and industriousiy circulated through
portion Of the daily press.
This English deal is new phase OF
the proposition. There has never been
a question OF doubt that negotiations
were pending with the International
crowd. though the story along this line
has been enough varied to make 1t ap-
pear as though a failure on the part or
the Cole-Ryan combination to come
through would be Immediately followed
In a closing Of the deal said to be pend
ing with the United States company. And
now some foreigner steps in to shoot holes
I'm the stories already told and Mr. knight
himself admits that some negotiations
with an English combination have been
under way. I'm addition. the word from
New York last night. as conveyed IN
special to The Herald, and appearing else
where. i'm that Uncle Jesse will. in case all
the other deals fall through, undertake a
trade with ex-senator Thomas Kearns and
David Keith
John u. Ryan is in New York so are
Kearns and Keith; the Rothschilds are in
London the United States company S
headquarters are in Boston, Jesse Knight
is IN Provo and the Colorado and Iron
Blossom mines are still in Tintic, and
how old was Ann?

Boston. June H.-Both markets were
under pressure all day today. Bear pools
are being formed and the bullish feeling
seems to have waned. The majority of
the finanCiers who make markets are
either away or about to leave, and there
is no indication OF any bull campaign be-
ing started right away. There is not very
much selling in the local cOppers. but
buying orders are hard to find and de-
clines of half a point between sales were
frequent We look for slightly lower
prices all through the list before any real
Improvement can be expected.

Seattle.-An escaped bull, believing
with rage and fright and dragging a
long rope which was attached to his
horns, charged into the Great North
ern tunnel here shortly before five
o'clock the other evening. The ami
NAL had been unlOaded from a car in
the switch yards and two men had
undertaken to lead it with a stout
rope when the bull decided to go in
wholly different direction The bull
prevailed, and finding easy going be-
meath the Jackson street bridge,
plunged into the gloom Of the tunnel,
where il could be alone in its hour of
grief and fright
Two bus drivers who were waiting
for trains viewed tn terrifying spec
tacle of the bull and the cloud of Gin
ders, and straightway informed Patrol
man George Osborn that the tunnel
was full of bulls.
Maybe it was buffalocs," said one
bus driver. I'VE just saw the air full
of dust and a string of bulls a block
long 90 into the tunnel"
Detective Lee Barbee was at the
station, and joined with Patrolman Os-
born in the hunt. The trail was
picked up at the mouth of the tunnel
where the rope had dragged in the
mud. The policemen decided that the
bull could not wander far afeld be-

run.

future possibilities of railway
transportation when railroads were
still III their infancy in England.
The first steam road in England,
the Stockton & Darlington was
chartered in 1921, and operated in
1925. This line, with three
branches, was thirty eight miles
long. In 1898, line was opened
between London and Birmingham,
and during the next five years,
England was pretty we'll grid
ironed with railroads.
Hudson got in the business ear
ly and went in like plunger. AS
early as 1887, he was made presi-
dent of the York & North Midland
railroad, with a capital stock of
So, go. 900 of which he subscribed
five times as much as any other
director and personally guaranteed
the payment Of 6 per cent divi-
dends. For recent linen draper
this was doing pretty we'll.
In 1912 he organized a S25 ooo,-
900 syndicate to build what was
called the Midland railroad, in
which he Co-operated with George
Stephenson, the inventor of the
locomotive. Stephenson started
as a fireman at a colliery and it
was characteristic of the times
that fireman and a linen draper
should become the two heads of
the great railroad movement in
England. But they were both
men of genius and nerve. Space
would fail to enumerate the rail-
road enterprises which Hudson
organized and promoted. In 1914
his admirers raised by popular sub
scription a fund of $50, 900 as
testimony OF their respect. He
was recognized as political pow
er. In 1915 he was elected to Par
lament although John Bright and
Richard Golden, the free trade
champions, both opposed him.
He remained in Parliament
fourteen years. and all the time
was promoting railroad schemes,
consultations, mergers, etc. FL
nancially, his position was always
preCariOus, because of the magni-
tude and boldness of his activities,
but he was able to enrich many
personal friends by INSIDE" i'm
formation and the people called
him the railroad king. He num-
bered Queen Victoria's husband
among his acquaintance and the
aristoCraCy of England crowded
his receptions. One after another
he became the owner of some of
the finest estates in England.
Kings, princes and noblemen
danced attendance upon him.
Financially speaking, a breath
of his could make or unmake
them. The mere rumor of his
connection with a new railroad
enterprise sent the shares soaring
skyward. He was poor speaker,
but he took and held a high place
in Parliament. He affected great
brusqueness of manner, and would
cut off with a few words a banker
or nobleman who came to ask a
monetary favor. Yet he stood by
his friends and enriched many of
them by inside tips" regarding
investments.
For several years no breath of
scandal attached to his name, but
he was riding to a fall. Like
many another great promoter and
Spectator, he "bit off more than
he could chew" When a pinch
came he began paying dividends
out of the capital instead of earn
ings, and in three years no less
than SI,47o, 900 was dishonesty
diverted. Hudson and his friends
insisted that he was simply trying

The phrase railroad king" and
railroad magnate" have been cur
rent in this country many years
and have been applied without
much discrimination. A railroad
magnate might be president of
single system of dispenser of free
passes under the old dispensation.
The term railroad king" ante
dates that of railroad magnates, ="
and it originated in England in
the early days of railroading be-
fore there was mile of steam rail
road in the United States.
One of the earliest railroad
kings" in this country was John
w. Garrett of Baltimore, president
of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad
from 1883 till his death in 1884,
period of twenty six years. His
service in financing and pushing
that great entrance to completion
stamped him as a railroad king of
a very different type from the
modern railroad wreckers and
took jobbers. The Baltimore and
Ohio railroad was the first char
tered and organized railroad pro
ject in the United States. A few
miles of tramway or rail tracks
were laid before but the Baltimore
and Ohio was the first company
organized for the prosecution of
real railroad project. This was
i'll 1927.
It's first board of directors in
cluded Charles Carroll, of Carol
ton, signer of the Declaration of
Independence. In 1927 the build
ing of a steam railroad across the
Allegheny mountains was more
than a gigantic undertaking; it
was a bold dream. The corner
stone of the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad was laid on July 4, 1873,
by Charles Carroll, who remarked
after performing the services: 4
consider this among the most i'm
portant acts of my life, second only
to my signing of the Declaration
of Independence, if even it be sec
ond to that. -
At that time Mr. Carroll was
past ninety years of age, and the
only surviving siguer of the Dec
laration.
Without following the progress
of the road in detail, it did get
across the mountains and its
opening to Wheeling, w. Va,
was celebrated in that town on
January 10, 1858. The president
of the road at that time was
Thomas Swami, who was Governor
of Maryland during the Civil
War. But the biggest man in the
history of the road, a giant in rail
road financing and promotion, was
John w. Garrett. He was the
first American railroad king"
But he was antedated by railroad
king in England where the phrase
originated.
When the feasibility Of railroad
transportation first began to be de-
yeloped in England there lived in
the City of New York man nam
ed George Hudson. He was
linen draper by trade, having
served an apprenticeship at the
business, and followed it several
years. But he had a taste for
politics and finances and aspired
to something better than working
at a trade.
In 1888 he had risen to be the
head of the Conservative party in
New York. In 1855 he was a
town councillor, in 1896 an alder
man, and in 1887 lord mayor. He
was evidently what is called in
this country a Hustler. " But
he must have had foresight and
imagination, for he foresaw the
