The chancellor of the exchequer, Sir Michacl Hicks-Beach, must rovide at least a billlon-dollar budget :an February. Five years ago the budget warled between $400,000,000 and $450,000,000.

So the coun- try drifte helplessly along with a govern- ment in which not even its own members retain confidence, yet for which there is no practicable alternative. King Edward was in London this week, But the public never sees him now.

Hongton Stock. More CHICAGO, Nov. 16.—(Special.)—It is re- ported on high autbority that the battle for supremacy between the two syndicates organized for the control of western rail way properties, and hended respectively by Hill and Harriman, has been fought out and Hill 1s the victor. The principal bone of contention was the control of the Northern Pacific. The Har- riman syndicate owned a controlling in- terest iu the preferred stock of that com- pany and not only did it {nsist on holding tho stock, but in an equal vote on the board of directors. The Hill syndicato in- sisted on the retirement ot the said stock and on a mafority of the directors. The latter won on both propositions. Another bone of contentlon was the build- The Harriman syndicate endeavored to make It part of the agroement that the | Burliogton should extend its line no fur- ther westward, particularly the line look- ing to Ogden and Salt Lake. This propo- sition was hotly contested and for a timo promised to disrupt the agreement, but the Boston interests, marshaled by ex-Presi- dent Perkins, stubbornly resisted the bot- tiing up of the Burllugton in this way and Harriman was agein defeated. Hill's Victory Complete, Knowing ones say that Harriman has been completely outgeneraled by Hill and that the agreement as it now stands puts the interests represented by him in such jeopardy that open disruption way come at any time. It is said that the road beiug promated by Senator Clark from Salt Lake o the Pacific coast s in fact a Burling- ton profect and that this is the reason why Harriman endeavored to head oft this competlitor against the Union Pacific by making 1t part of the agreement that the Burlington hould build no more to the westward. When it becomes an established fact that Senator Clark's road is a Bur- iington enterprise it will Collapse, as as- surance of Do interest in the Clark road on the part of the Burlington fs all that kept the deal from falllng through. On equally good authority it is stated that the signal triumph of Hill was achieved through the assistance of ex-President Per- kins and his eastern friends and that the support rendered him was conditioned on a continuation of the present executiva officers of the Burlington in office. The reported upheavals in official sources will not occur. There will be no material change in the officers of the Burlington or any of its adjuncts. Ex-President Per- kins will have an active voice In the man- agement and President Harris and General Manager Holdrege will, it is satd, be re- tained in thelr respective positions. The fact that ex-President Perkins, President Harris and General Manager Holdrege are soon to leave on an extended tour of in- spection of the western lines would indi- cate that no change s contemplated as re- gards these officers, Besides, both Harris and Holdrege are looked upon with much favor by Hill. 1In fact, for several years Hill has been endeavoring to induce Harris to leave the Burlington and take & po- sition with the Great Northern. It is not very long ago that he tenduced him a posi- tion, uccompanied by a handsome increase in salary, but Harrls declined. Miller for TraMc Manager 1t is admitted that a change will be made in the traffic department and that Darius Miller will soon occupy the same position with the HIll syndicate lines as Stubbs does with the Harriman. Miller is Hill's righthand man on the Great Northern. One thing likely to extend the tenure of office of the incumbent Burlington officials ie that the system is now earning a con- siderable amount over the guuranteed § per cent dividend. The last annual report showed that the earnings were below the new interest charges and this brought down criticlsm on Hill from the holders of North- ern Pacific and Great Northern securities. For the last quarter ending September 30 1901, the earnings of the Burlington were at the rate of 9.97 per cent on the stock outstanding before the property was ab- sorbed. In other words, the earnings are at the rate of 414 per cent on the collateral trust bonds issued by the Great Northern and Northern Pacific in exchange for the old Burlington stock at 200. As the col- lateral trust bonds bear 4 per cent inter- est it will be seen that the net profit to the promoters is now one-half of 1 per cent. The estimated revenue for the pres- ent flscal year is: Freight, $37,700,000; passenger, $12,300,000; mail and miscel- laneous, $4,880,000, making a total of $34,- £69,000. Operating expenses are estimated At $36,400,000, with fixed charges, not in- cluding dividends, of $9,600,000. This makes the cost of operation $45,400,000 and shows a net earning of $0,980,000, or 9.07 per cent earned on old stock. Under such con- ditions the § per cent guaranty will leave a handsome profit for the Hill syndicate, nor is it Iikely that there will be any dle- position on the part of Hill to make changes in the ofccrs in the face of such a showing It is evident that after all the agreement is not to extend as far as was at first in- tended. Harrhman's defeat in fatling to bottle up the Burlington has narrowed it down to a traffic agreement only, and while co-operation will prevall in the making of rates, and, in some degree, in tho main- talning of rates, and the distribution of trafic, there will be Do relaxation in the extension of lnes and competition in this respect botween the two great co-eperating | yet rival syndicates will prevail as before.
