PAID BACK IN OWN COIN Hill Ousted Harriman From Northern Pacific in 1901 Christmas Season

a ~% . > g a - - : _ 7 = Sach a ; an ee he 2 ~% : ~ . oie Si oe Are Ath ae a CHICAG®, Dec. 18.—Edward H. Harri- man has repaid James J. Hill in his own coin by wresting victory from him in the shadow of defeat through one of the effective coups ever executed in financial battles. The control] of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Rail- road, which Morgan and Hill confident- ly believed to be theirs yesterday morn- inz, is still lodged with the Harriman- Standard Oil interests and will be strengthened. . As Hill threw Harriman é@wnership of the Northern Pacific in ‘the Christmas season of 1901, so Harri-| gman ousts Hill from an ownership in St. Paul. Mr. Hill executed his flank movement by retiring the preferred | gtock of Northern Pacific, in which his 6)pponent’s control centered. Mr. Har- riman and his friends maintain St. Paul | by issuing two-thirds of a $1V0,000,U0U stock increase to the holders of the pre- ferred, Whale Hill’s control of Northern Jacific common was a golden apple, his ®ontrol of St. Paul common is but ashes. ‘Wor a month there has been a titanic Siruggie for the ewnership of St. Paul in the open market. Quietly and almost wnsuspected, the Morgan-Hill people huve been buying St. Paul in the hope or getting control and turning the Pa- tific Coast extension southward into the Harriman territory. In the last week this buttle for stock has been acute, and a disturbing feature to Wall street and the money market. ,Much of the old bitterness has been aroused. The attack of Jacob H. Schiff on banks charging excessive money rates for stock loans was. directed against Morgan institutions. For some ‘days the Morgan. banks were calling loans, as the money was needed to buy St. Paul stock, the high rates and the calling of loans forcing out large blocks of this security and keeping down the price, and to some extent deceiving the trained speculators as to. the real. pur-, pose.

$100,000,000 Stock Issue. Yesterday the crucial point was reached. The Morgan-Hill interests were within safe grounds. They could count: on enough stock to sWing the Manage- ment of the road, and they reached for a g00d margin over actual contro. To their surprise, stocks came from quar- ters known to be friendly to St. Paul in- terests, There wags a hesitation in the purchases, a searching inquiry and the information from friends in the enemy's camp that there would be a coup in the announcement of a stock issue of $100,- 000,000, which was $25,000,000 more than was expected at this time. Then the contest was given up and the stock broke and was weakened the Mar- ket. The official announcement betrayed the cunning of the Harriman people to make safe their agreement, to make sure the extension of St. Paul into Hill territory. Of the $99,611,000 new stock the preferred is $66,327,000, or 1235 per cent of the present issue of $49,654,000. There is to be $33,184,000 new coMmon, or #4 per cent of the pregent issue of $53,183,000. Subscriptions t othis new stock at the rate of 75 per cent of present holdings of preferred and common are given to | shareholders of record tomorrow, Dea. 19, and the first installment of 10 per cent must be paid on Friday, Dec, 21. In other words, subscribers who own the Stock or who buy today Must exer- Cise their rikht by 3 o’clock on Friday aut the place of registration in New York.

In the first revolution the churches were confiscated by the Government. Then when Napoleon was made Emperor the French Consul | he signed a concordat with the Pope by which it was agreéd that the Gov- ernment was to retain the ownership | and control of the churches and that | all priests, bishops, ministers, rabbis | and doctors of all recognized religions | were to receive incomes from the Government. “Since that time the Government has owned the churches, repaired them and paid out big sums in in- comes. When the separation Jaw went | into effect the incomes stopped and the Government naturally took hold of the churches, which belonged to it under the concordat. | “But the religious orders—that is, the priests and bishops, for the min- isters and others are not rebelling against it very much—had been liv- ing in these churches so long they felt as if the buildings belonged to them; and, moreover, they cated in the first revolution they never were rightfully the property of the Government, Must Have Annual License. that | held that since the @Rurches were econfis- ; ‘The way in which the Government insists on retaining control of the churches is especially repugnant to the priests and bishops.

And of the number of good ‘atholics not nearly all are in sym- pathy with the fight aguinst the Gov- ernment by thé priests and bishops. “What they want in France is the same sort of religious freedom that they have over here.

Brown’s President Explains How He Started for Japan and Wound Up Down in the City of Mexico. a. 2 wr

wv MISSED FUN R LEE HEDGES, president of the o St. Louis Browns, got back to St. Japan and around the werld Monday. And here is the bona fide story of the ' was trip to Japan, taken by Robert Lee Hedges, of a glorious winter vacation in the land of Geisha girls, jiu-jitsu, hira-kira and divers and sundry other institutions peculiar to that portion of the world where the ‘yellow peril’ breeds and waxes fat, except. that this trip had its beginning in St. Louis and it ended in Mexico. That trip to Japan. How it soothed the arduous hours of the baseball sea- And yet to be foiled. ocked at by one siigle item In the long journey. To know that the end sought was obtained, all but.

At one point in his journey, only one single stream separated Robert Lee from the object of his off-season heart’s desire— the Pacific ocean. Thereby hangs a tale, which, from afar, resembles the trail of smoke from an ocean steamer that departed 15 seconds too soon, or, per chance, the flying coat tails of Robert Lee, who arrived 15 seconds too late. Which was This is the same problem that has confronted many an umpire when the baserunner and the ball both went into a cloud of dust together. He Started for Japan. Robert Lee Hedges said he was going to spend the winter in Japan. Now, why didn’t Robert Lee lIive up to his promise? That he shook off his busi- ness cares, stands undisputed. He hadn't heard how Jimmy Collins wasn’t purchased by McAleer, he says, until he arrived in St. Louis Monday morn- ing. After he had swallowed and di- gested some of those off-season rumors, which came to naught, and some oth- ers that didn’t, Mr. Hedges unloaded jis talagof woe. It is a sad one. It deals with®broken train schedules. bro- ken bridges, missed connections, a berth already engaged from Seattle, minutes only 60 seconds long and hours that were longer, of disappointment and of consolation in the land of the grin- goes. AS prearranged, Mr. Hedges packed his grips and left St. Louis, immediately after the Browns had trimmed the Car- dinals in the post-season series. He To be m seen , was the envy of those who hadn't the ,receipts of a successful baseball season “with which to bestrew their wintry path With vacations in Japan. How deep their longing for a dollar machine like Park will never be told. Fondly they pressed upon him a God- speed on his long journey and requested tokens: from the land the Jap, to Keep as mementoes. of The discomforts of travel by rail over hand few miles were forgotten in the thdught of how he would luxuriate in the berth he had engaged on a steamer that would sail. from Seattle, Wash.

It Hedges’ boat and Hedges’ ‘berth was being borne away on the ocean, all bedecked with baseball bats, flowers, masks, pennants that he might have won and beautifully worked mottoes for next season. His friends had decorated that stateroom and, ‘“‘then, to think,”’ Says Mr. Hedges, “that it went sailirg away over the seas without an occu- pant.’’ From that time until Moxyday morn- ing of this week Mr. Hedges was lost sight of. He didn’t return to the haunts of his nativity. Of two evils, he chose the greater, and rather than return. to meet the jests of his friends, he bought a ticket for the c itv of Mexico. “T have it on my friends, after all. They had it framed up for me on the supposition that IT would take that boat out of Seattle.

It was very, very when Mr. Hedges arrived there. Mr. Hedges, it has been Mexico ever since that October day when he arrived. They play base- ball in Mexico, but they have another game, too. They put out two lumps of sugar and wager on which a fly will light first. They say Mr. Hedges was barred from the game because he moist- ened his lump of sugar and won many Mexican simoleons before the natives indeed It's hot According to hot in

MEMPHIS, Tenn., Dec. 18.—Like a seventh carbon copy of Maud-Mueller- on-a-Summer-Day, she alighted from the Cannon Ball on Friday morning and breezed into the Union Depot, where she stood Patrolman W. H. Shea in a corner and spoke her little piece, says the News-Scimitar. “My name is Mandy Robbins an’ I’m came from Plantsville,’”’ she started, with a high disdain for punctuation. “I’m 21 years an’ an orping an’ I can cook an’ wash an’ iron an’ mind the children an’ milk the cows and eut the Kindlin’ an’ do the chores an’ sew an’— well, I can do most anything.”’ %And at every third work she bobbed a courtesy. “Fine!” gasped Shea. do for you?’ “Take me to the station house,” answered promptly. “What have you been doing?’’ he de- manded. “I've been cookin’ an’ washin’ an’ ironin’ an’—”’ she opened. “Then why should I take you to the station?’ “To get me a job,” she explained. “The ticket agent at Holly Springs told me that if I’a come to Memphis and go to the station house I'd get a job that might keep me busy for six months without stoppin’.”’ Toa reporter who happened in oppor- tunely, Maud explained that for years she had lived in Plantsville, Miss., tak- tionary waslistands and statlonary washtube; \ing service as a domestic on the death granitoid laundry: property is tn first-class con- of her parents and living with one dition. and is iust 2 ae. po oto. — woman for ten years past.

HEADS PARADE AT 84. 4 Mr. G. I. Partridge, of Franklin, Mass., who is in his 84th year, led if famous band through the streets of Cambridge at the head of the Knight Templar Parade. 7 in an interview a few days ago, Mr. Partridge, the veteran band-master, said: ‘‘Last April I took a sudden cold, and I was laid up with neuralgia in my shoulder, which . brought on fever and took away my appetite, but by using Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey I came out all right, and on Memorial Day I was leading my band and playing as well. I think your Malt Whiskey is just the medicine to tone up and keep up the strength of old people. Hoping your medicine will prove beneficial to others, I can truly recommend it as a valuable help.” Despite his advanced age, Mr. Partridge can still do as good work as men two score years younger.

Yet has Ibsen not written anything at all gram in this simple allegory of the ultimate saving of Peer Gynt's soul. only puzzling thing he has done js to tell his story as a child might have it, with a child’s unabashed employment of the mystic and svmbolical, vaguely terrifying, the significant shanes that live in the of the agination—all bearing, as they do in a child’s mind, on the tangible realities of life. ‘The only thing in the world one Needs to do to understand ‘‘Peer Gint’’ is to be a child again from 7:45 to 11:15 yp. m., to revive the vouthful fancy grafted on the experience that has COme with age, and then surrender frank- ly to the dreamings of the Norwegian playwright.

Peer Gynt, to Peer Gynt, lc the central setting of the entire uni- verse, which revolves about him sheerly for the greatertglory of Peer Gynt. He soaks himself in brandy because then his Ego-dreams take their wildest and most ravishing flights.

There You have Peer Gynt—and the keynote of The nursery monsters thit beset him—the Dovre King, the Woman, the Ugly Brat, the Strange Passenger and the Button’ Moulder—these are but the symbolizing figures of Peer Gynt’s punishing, taken by Ibsen from the storehouse of Norse fable as ingenuously as would any other child draw upon its treasury of nursery folk- side mountain lrer, ed the beast’s world. bore of this initial degradation. as it hymnal eyes poor soul his salvation.
