P. Hunting- ton. The property was his, he said, and, | owning it, he proposed to keep it.. He |} wanted no alliances which could to any | 3l extent make him dependent upon inter- | j| ests other than those for which he him- | self stood. Thus important deals to which New York, London and Berlin houses had committed themselves were disposed of. The death of Mr. Huntington brought about a complete change in the situation. | §| The personal equation disappeared.

Z. Hubbell and J. J. Cairns spoke at a Republican meeting in this city to- Armory Hall was packed 1o the oo " having been conspicuously influential in the years past. Within _the past week Wall street be- came excited over the discovery that con- trol of Mr. Huntington’s Pacific Mail property had passed to E. H. Harriman and his_associates, including James J. Hill and W. K. Vanderbilt. Explanations given much currency have aimed to rep: resent that only Mr. Harriman had be come controller, . Hill's interest and Mr. Vanderbilt’s interests were rela- tively insignificant. However this may be, it is certain that in the Southern Pacific deal (whereby Vanderbilt interests will control) the cor- poration of the Pacific Mail Steamship Company can be of vast interest. Aside from the Vanderbilt ambition to estab- lish and maintain a transportation from_the Atlantic coast at New York to San Francisco and thence to the Far East (made practicable by the New York Central, Northwestern, Union Pa- cific and Pacific Mail), the taking over of the Southern Pacific is an accomplish- ment greater than any other coalition hitherto forecast. It is believed by practical rallway man- agers that with the Southern Pacific Railway system under a direct Vander- bilt control there will be at once a com- plete disposition of most of those elements which _hitherto have been interfering with and Southwestern traffic far Western rates. % nderbilt control of the Southren Pa- cific;” declared one authority yesterday, “will produce actual revolution in South- western railroad business. We will have falr dealing. Secret rate cutting will stop. Instead of deception, secret cuts, disturb- ances, losses and reprisals we can have profits. In American railway financiering nothing during the past twenty years ha been o% 8o much consequence as the pos- sibility that Willlam K. Vanderbilt takes | over the Southern Pacific and puts it upon with the Union Pacific, Chicago orthwestern and New York Cen- a lev and tral. Acquiring control of the great South- ern Paclfic system (approximately 8000 miles) is an accomplishment which makes relatively insignificant the recent taking over by the New YorK Central of the Boston and Albany property. PRACTICALLY DECIDED UPON. H. E. Huntington Said to Be Shttecll for the Presidency. NEW YORK, Oct. 25.—That Southern Pacific affairs are soon to be readjusted, as was made necesasry by the death ot Collis P. Huntington, is indicated by the fact that the new president for the company has been practically decided upon. The man who will be elected to that position, unless some new compli- cation arises, is H. E. Huntington, nephew of the late president, whose can- didacy has been so vigorously opposed. Rumors that Willlam K. Vanderbilt | had recently acquired large holdings of Southern Pacific securities were circu- lated in Wall street to-day and were seemingly well authenticated. That Mr. Vanderbilt alms to control the propert. was denled by Southern Pacific interes! but among so-called ‘‘Vanderbilt inter- ests” it was not denifed that he and his friends are now interested in the road to a greater or lesser extent. The rumor, as it spread, was enlarged, according to Wall street habit, and be- fore the close of the market it was whis- pered that Mr. Vanderbilt had purchased the Huntington holdings of the Southern Pacific and was Immediately to take control of the property. The bility of this made denials of it unneces. sary. But that Mr. Vanderbilt hereafter have a voice in Southern Pa- cific_affairs is not at all improbable, and to the Wall street view his recent pur- chases of stock, coming in conjunction with E. H. Harriman’s appearance as a factor in the Pacific all Steamship Cor)l?s.n{, are highly significant. 3 anderbilt’s plans for a grea rans-Atlantic line are generally bel froes in, and Wall street regards E. H. Harri- man’s position as the real executive of the Union Pacific system to be Indicative of Vanderbilt's control there. HOLDING OUT- TILL NOVEMBER. Filipinos Hoping Against Hope for Bryan’s Election. DETROIT, Mich., Oct. 25.—A special to the Tribune from Ann Arbor says: Re- gent Dean of the University of Michigan has recelved a letter from Dean C. Worcester, a member of the United States Commission in the Philippines, which is in part as follows: Conditions were improving here rapidly up to the time Bryan was nominated and began to talk in public. The result of the announce- ment of his policy In regard to the Philip- pines was to put & stop to the important sur- renders, which were steadily being made under the terins of the amnesty, and to bring about renewed_hostilities through the worst districts here in Luzon. ‘We know absolutely from captured corre- spondence that this desperate effort to keep up & show of resistance is being made only in the hope of influenting the election at home, and important insurgent leaders like Sandieo say that unless Bryan is elected or the war in China draws troops from these islands, they will give up their useless efforts in November. 1, therefore, do mot look for any general fm- provement in the situation until atter the Presidential election, but with that out of the way, 1 expect to see a speedy change for the better. At present the {nsurgents are resorting to that last resort of & failing cause, wholesale assassination. Mr. Worcester recites atrocities recen committed by hostile Filipinos up‘c‘iz friendly natives, and concludes: *I am glad to report that there are now a very considerable aumber of provinces where pacification s present, and civil govern. ment will be ectablished in the neur fu- ture.” s —_——— Bond Election Proposed.
