An open discussion will follow Mr. Lloyd's lecturs and a-per- manent organization will be formed. As recently explained iu The Bee, this league is for the purpose of debating economlo questions in a systematic manner, work- ing toward the end of soclal reform. Ten lectures by well-known thinkers amd writ- ers on these questions and ten by local members of the league will make up the course, which will run through a period of ten months. Mr. Lloyd's lecture is the first of the series. Henry Demorest Lioyd has been before the public for a long time as a thinker, writer and speaker on economic questions.

MUCH IS CONCEDED ON BOTH SIDES If Division of B mton Between th Two Interests Conld Be Made, tha Solution Wonld Be Ac- cepted, NEW YORK, Oct. 23 —(Special Tele- gram.)—~Important conferences were held today between representatives of the Mor- gan-Hill people and Harrihan-Kuhn-Loeb party, with a view to effecting a settlement ot the Northern Pacific controversy. From the rise in 8t. Paul to 170% and Union Pacific shares to 103, the strect interpreted the progress of ncgotlations as favorable, although many usually well informed per- sons thought an agreement was a long way off on both sides. In the meantime lawyers are Investigating the situation and pass upon each phase of the plans pro- posed and their opinions are divergent, not only in regard to the question of retir- ing the preferred shares, but on most other points ralsed Northern Pacific shares hought in May by the Kuhn-Loeb interests are no longer held by them in negotiablo form or so that they can bo readily transferred for retirement. They have heen definitely turned over to the Union Pacific railway and are now carried in its treasury, having been taken up, out of the proceeds of the Union Pacific convertible debenture bonds #01d to Kuhn, Loeb & Co. All this North- ern Pacific stock has been deposited with A Wall street trust company, and to com- plete the legal transfer to the Unigd Pa- cific the stock has been registered o the books of the Northern Pacific in the name of the trustees, ¥. H. larriman heing one of these, with the bonds issued by the Union Pacific, which in part have been converted into its own common shares. The question 1s ralsed how the Unjon Pacific could sur- render the Northern Pacific stock, which it 0ok up by the proceeds of these securities. It was stated today as showing how much has been conceded on both sides already, that if a division of the Bur- lington raflway between the two interests could be made or would settle the dis- pute, that solution would be accepted. A prominent banker, who has intimate relations with hoth sldes and who Is identi- fied with' two of the rallroads mentioned, sald this afternoon that a settlement would undoubredly be reported before long and that there would be no fight He adds that such great Interesis are at stake that neither side can afford a long contest, At the same time he said he could not guess at the moment what the terms would be. He Intimated that the St. Paul rond would in some way be a party to the deal and that the Unfon Pacific would be satisfied. GREAT NORTHERN REPORTS President Hill Heviews the Burling. ton Parchase and Geographical Poanibilities, NEW YORK, Oct. 23.—(Special Tele- gram.)—In the annual report of the Great Northern rallroad for 1901, jssued today, President Hill reviews the Burlington pur- chase and after stating the well known terms of purchase says that because tho transaction was not concluded until after the close of the fiscal year ‘‘neither the company's interest in the Burlington stock acquired nor its liabllity on the joint col- lateral bonds issued Is taken up in the ac- counts shown In this report.”” Mr. HUl reviews the Burlington's geo- graphical location. The territory reported by its lines, he says, “Is of great extent, rich in all resources, except timber, al ready well populated and developed and containing many large cities.” The terrl- tory served by the Burlington produces most of the machinery and implements used on the farms, in the forests, mines and mills of the tier of states reached by the Great Northern and Northern Pacifie. It also produces a large part of the iron and steel products exported to Asia by way of the Pacific ocean. Chicago, Kaneas City, Omaha and St. Joseph are the largest pro- vision centers in the country. At St. Louts it connects with the chief cotton-carrying lines of the south and southwest. On the other hand, the Burlington territory takes grain for fattening the live stock ralsed on the northern and western farms and ranches. It consumes lumber in all shapes on a large scale. Hill says that his road hauled 31,863,000 bushels less“of wheat and flax than during the previous year and the earnings from these two commodities were reduced $2,- 807,000. The largest part of the increase In nings other than traMc from wheat, flax and iron ore came from business and from the Pacific coast. The immense timber tracts in Washington, Mr. Hill says, must soon supply the demand for lumber in the prairie states, formerly met by the cut In Wisconsin, Michigan and Minnegota. This, he thinks, will add greatly to the tonnage of both the Great Northern and the Bur- lington. The region of greatest activity in ex- tensions and new road is in Canada. It 1s very evident that the policy of the Great Northern is to ure an American outlet for the great mineral wealth of British Co- lumblia. TERMINUS MAY BE ST. LOUIS Muscatine North & South Rallroad Belleved to Be Headed in that Direction. BURLINGTON, Ia, Oct. 23.-~(8peclal Telegram.)—The franchise for right of way entering the city has been turned over to the Muscatine North & South road, which has now ured a complete right of way from Elrick, la., to Burlington, and will begin work In the spring. The route into the eity will be along Front street and passes over ground on which a new track was lald by the Burlington & Western last Sunday, The courts will bave to decide the right to this plece of property. The destination of the new road is claimed to be St. Louls. Whether it will cross the river here and continue south on the Illinois side is not decided. It is sald to be backed by the Milwaukee. RAILROAD MEN SUBPOENAED They and Lxtensive Shippers Will Be efore Interatate Com- merce Commission. CHICAGO, Oct. 23.—Alleged illegal prac- tices of the railroads castbound from Chl- cago in the way of pooling and convessions to large shippers are to be investigated by the Interstate Commerce commission at u session of that body to convene iu this city November 1. Unltad States Deputy Marshal Cass today served subpoenas on J. F. Tucker, chairman of the Central Freight association, and T. J. Hudson, rafic manager of the 1llinots Central railroad. Subpoenas are also out for Willlam B. Hudson, manager for Car- rington, Hanpab & Co, Board of Trade ' merchants; M. C. Harkham, general freight agent of the Tllimols Central rallway; Georgs C. Marcy, vice president of the Ar wmour company; F. C. Frazier of Bartlett, Frazier & Co. and D. E. Richardson ot Richardson & Co. It is sa'd that the commlesion Is in pos- sesslon of eviden: inet & number of roads and will investigate the workings of the Central Frelght association more thor- oughly than any eimilar organization hae ever been investigated before AFTER THE GREAT WESTERN Harriman Syndicate Teying 1o Capt CHICAGO, Oct, 23,—~The Chronicle tomor- row will say It 16 the prevailing opinion in local rail- way circles that the inspection trips of Cornelius Vanderbilt and other eastern financlers over the Great Western and Rock Island roads mean more than has been given out by those Interested. That the Great Western is for sale is not doubted and 1t is now belleved that the Harriman syndicato {s preparing to meet Mr. Stick- ney's terms and take over the strategically situated system. Many are also of the opinion that the sald syndicate has ita eye on the great Rock Island property. On his inspection trip of the Great West- ern yestorday Mr. Vanderbilt was accom- panied by W. A. Read, the New York financlal agent of that road. The Great Western s practically the only road in the Chicago-8t. Paul district that has es- caped the managers of the ‘“‘community-of- Interest” scheme. The road is so situated that it can cause Its stronger competitors any amount of rate trouble. It is to secure it and clinch the combination's fortress in the north- west, it is believed, that the Harriman people are plannivg. It is eald that the other great combination, the Morgan-Hill interest, has been feeling for the Great Western and this has stirred the Harri- man people to renewed efforts to obtain possession of the line Today Mr. Vanderbilt, with Ogden Mills, A. R. Flower, H. H. Gollister, Henry Sel- bert and Richard M. Hoe, all of New York, will inspect & part of the Rock lIeland sys- tem.

CHICAGO, Oct. 24.—(Special Telegram.)— Jay Gould's dream of an Atlantic seaboard line with an outlet at New York for his vast system of raflways is about to be real- ized by his son, George J. Gould. The Van- derbllt, Pennsylvania and Erie systems are contronted with the early opening of a new trunk line road from Chicago and 8t. Louls to New York As the firat steps in this move the Wabash has arranged to enter Pittsburg from its prosent eastern terminus at Toledo. This will give the Wabash direct lines from St. Louis and Chicago to Pittsburg. The object which the Wabash and other Gould Interests desire to obtain is an entrance into New York, and this Is to be accomplished by an alllance with the Philadelphia & Reading and that company's recent purchase, the Central Rallroad of New Jersey. - Behind the proposed route and ready to pour their entire eastbound trafic over the ‘Wabash-Pittsburg extension and (ts allies east of Plitsburg are the Gould I gregating 14.745 miles of line, operated as follows: Missouri Pacific system, 5,828 miles; St. Louls Southwestern, 1,264; Texas & Pacific, 1,620; International & Great Northern, 903: Rlo Grande system, 2,676; Wabash system, 2,604; Wheellng & Lake Erle, 452; total, 14,745 miles.

The agent sald the Burling- ton would construct the Salt Lake City ex- tension of the Guernsey Ilime, but just when operations would be begun he could not say. ‘Ae to forming a connection with Senator Clark's road at Salt Lake City he would give out nothing definitely, but fo- timated euch an alllance was highly prob- able. The agent also intimated that there soon will be disclosures concerning the Salt Lake City extension, ern Elects, DENVER, Oct. 23.—At the annual meet- ing of the Rio Grande Southern rallroad stockbolders in this city the following di- rectors were elected: George J.

You have probably been living on poorly selected food, that is food that does not contaln the required elements the body needs. That sort of food, and coffee, fs the direct or indirect cause of more than half the ills the human body acquires Grape-Nuts 1s a perfecily cooked food and both that and the Postum Food Cof- fee contaln fine microscopic particles of phosphate of potash obtained in a natural way from the grains of the field and by scientific food experts incorporated into food and drink. That eloment joins with the albumen in food to make gray matter, which is the filling of the brain cells and the nerve centers all over the human body. A man or woman thus fed Is sclentifically fed and rapidly grows In vigor and vitality, and becomes capable of condacting suc- cessfully the afairs of life.

Tt stands up, be eaid; to ameliorate the con- dition of the poor man, whatever might be bis color. The fepublican party'1§ no longer made up exclusively of the poor and middle classes. It has a good many very | wealthy men In Its ranks; some are mil- | lionaires and men who control trusts, but for all of that ite underlying principles are for the poor men. He then called attention to the faot that the republican party gave to the people the free homestead law and blazed the path of | empire across the continent. Mention was made of the Paclfic railroads and the fact | tbat the ratls for this road were manufac- tured in this country instead of being im- ported. Referring to importations Mr, Rosewater spoke of the MeKinley tarift on tin, a duty having been put on tin In or- der to encourage the home production of | this commodity. Mr. Bryan denounced this measure, saying that tin could not be manufactured In this country. “In spite of | Mr. Bryan's prediction,” said the speaker, t was only recently that 25,000 men em- ploved in the tin manufactories were out on a strike.” Carcer of Repub) v. Mr. Rosewater then spoke of the mar- velous career of the republican party. He facetiously admitted that a great deal of | its success had been due to the stupidity | of the democrats. As to Bryan's attitude while in congress during the Northern Pa- cific and the Pullman strikes the asi tion was made that at that perlod of Mr. Bryan's career he was no particular friend of the laboring-man. Notwithstand- ing Bryan's efforts to have congress ratify the Philippine treaty, since the treaty was adopted the leader of the democracy has talked constantly of imperialism.

He stated that the republican leaders were seeking to divert attontion from the Ohio question by discussing foretgn questions General Daugherty, General Finley, An- thony Howells, Congresstien Anderson, Zim- | merman and MeCarthy Sere all in tune with this Keynote, but 1td most forcible ex- poneni was Mayor Thomas Johnson of Cleveland, who burlesqued republivan ora- tors in their attempt carry the war into the Philippines, Porto Rico and Cuba and keep attention from exciting conditions in | Ohio He also burlesqued Senator Hanna' watchword of ‘‘Let well enough alone,” | Claiming that the trusts and others “eseap- | ing their proportion of taxation all had a | batile cry.” Then he detailed the extenf of the in- crease of the taxes this year fn Cleveland | of Senator Hanna and sald: “If the same policy were pursued elsewhere in the state the people would_ appreclate the desire of some persons in wanting to ‘let well enough alone,’ The demonstration of the day occurred | while Johnson, Baker, Norton and others | made their charges of injustice and neglect | in state affairs. Why B This city was founded by the grandfather of Colonel James Kilhourne, the democratic candidate for governor, and was selected | tor the opening demonsiration on that ac- | count. It is the county seat of one of the strongest democratic counties fn the state | and everything in the city, which was very | profusely decorated, wus iven up to the | celebration. The speakers included Colonel | James Kilbourne, Hon Authony Howells, candidate for lleutenant governor; Mayor Tom L. Johason and Hop. Charles W. Baker, | candidate for United States.senator, in the afternoon and for the night meetiug Hon, J. L. Simmerman of Springfleld, opponent of Colone] Kilbourne, for the nomination for governor at the last convention; Con- gressman James A. N.-Norton and others. General B. B. Finley, formerly congressman from this distzict, was the presiding officor for both meetings. The most lvely scenes were on the ar- rival of Colonel Kilbourne, Hon. Charles W. Baker, Hon. J. L. Zimmerman and other leaders of the escarting clubs from Colum- bus and Mayor Tom L..Johnson and his escort from Cléveland. The: weather was ‘exceptianally, pleagant and’ the. people from the country came jnio town in large num- bers, Among those on the Kilhourne excursion train from Columbus was Congressman John J. Lenta, who opposed the nomina- tion of Kilbourne. Lentz was accompanied by Mayor Hiokle of Columbus and mem- bers of his cabinet. Some of the enthusi- asts charged that Lentz had been opposing Kilbourne and attempted to put him off the train, Although the yells, “‘put him off!" were kept up for some time, Con gressman Lents remained in line and par- ticipated in the proceedings of the day. The parade of clubs did not reach the speakers’ stand until 2:45 p. m. The speaking Insted until 5:10, when a recess was taken before the night meeting. Among the distiuguished guests on the platform was Congressman Lentz, who during the parade rode in the same carriage with Chairman Daugherty, Mayor Johnson of Cleveland and Mayor Hinkle of Columbus. The unpleasant incident on the train‘from Columbus was apparently wiped out by the later demonstrations of harmony. . In-ac- cordance with the pollcy of both Governor Nash and General Kilhourne, who are neighbors in Columbus, no personalities have been induiged In this year. The republicans joined in the prepara- tions for the meeting here today. The decorations and, platform remain for the meeting to be addressed mext Tuexday by Senator Hanoa, : PERSONAL PARAGRAPHS. J.
