NEW YORK, Jan. 1.—One of the offi- cials of the Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company to-day said the | published report that George Westing- | house and J. P. Morgan are arranging a plan by which the Westinghouse Com- pany and the General Electric Company are to be merged with a capitalization of | $50,000,000 has no foundation so far as he is aware. He adds: “Such_reports are easily originated and readily believed, as the majority of finan- cial people and others interested in indus- trial matters leck vpon such an arrange- ment as almost inevithble. The chief ob- stacles in the way of such an arrange- ment are probably the conservative view of those in control of the Westinghous Company as to the capitalization, man- agement and other details.” — - DISASTER TO TRAIN DOUBLES DOCTORS’ WORK Medical Men on Way to Scene of a Tragedy Delayed by Wreck.

L—After a continu- ous service of nearly half a century in the law firm of Evarts, Choate Bea- man, Joseph H. Choate has withdrawn and temporarily at least will discontinue the practice of law. Choate communi- cated his intention to his assoclates some time ago, giving as his reason that his dutieg of state as Embassador from the United States to England have prevented his active participation in the affairs of the partnership for the last two years and that these duties would consume so much of his time for several years to come that it would be impossible for him to pursue his law practice. Another rea- son was that the recent deaths of Wil- liam M. Evarts, Charles C. Beaman and Prescott Hall Butler would necessitate a change in the firm name, and he urged that such should be done. prorbond vemed s Senator Berry’s Condition Better.

F., Jan. 1.-~This Gov- ernment has not considered the renewal of the modus vivendi find hopes there will be no occasion to consider the re- enactment of a measure so detrimental to the interests of the empire and the colony. The Governmeént has rot received any advice from the imperial Government as to what has been done with regard to the negotiations with. France since the New- foundland delegation left London last May, Al the colony’s representations to the Colonial Office have been unanswered and no reply has been received regarding reciprocity ‘with America, although the imperial Government's desire respecting a_discussion of that question between Sir ‘Wilfrid Laurier and glr Robert Bond (re- spectively the Premiers of Canada and ewfoundland) has been fully complied with and the result has been reported to the Colonial Office. The successful man- agement of the colony's -affairs by the present administration is manifested by a financial condition unparalleled in its history. We only require justice at the hands of the imperial Government in the removal of the restriction as to the treaty, shore and trade relations with America to assure us a position of perm- anent prosperity.

PARIS, Jan, 1—The customary ex- change of New Year's greetings between St. Petersburg and Paris occurred to- day. The Czar telegraphed as follows to President Loubet: “On theé occaslon of the new year the Empress and myself desire to express to you our best wishes for France and for you personally. Among the most agree- able remembrances of the year just closed, that of the few days passed in the beautiful country friendly and allled to us is specially dear.” General Andre, the Minister of Var, telegraphed to the Russian Minister of War, General Konropatkine, the greet- ings of the ¥rench army to the Russian army and to their Majesties. President Loubet in reply sent the fol- lowing message to the Csar: “l am deeply touched by the good wishes of yourself and her Majesty for France. My country preserves a grate- ful remembrance of the second visit you deigned to devote to her and will rejoice 10 learn of the happy and lasting impres- sfon that your recent stay in France has left in your mind.” ROME, Jan. 1.—The French Embassa- dor, ‘M. Calilebarrere, speaking at a re- ception of the French colony here to-day, took occaslon to allude in the most friend- ly terms to the relations between France and Italy.

Bell mare VIGTORY GOES 10 PALMATSTS National Party in Cuba Assured of Easy Triumph. HAVANA, Jan. 1—The indications are that the entire Palma ticket will be elect- ed and that Thomas Estrada Palma, the Nationalist candidate for the Presidency of Cuba, will receive the unanimous vote of the electoral college. The adherents of Bartolome Maso, the Democratic candidate who recently with- drew from the campaign, not only with- drew their candidates, but refused to go to the polls. A remarxably iight vote was polled !hrnuggo“t the 1sland. La; Discu- sion ascribes this indifference to the cer- tainty on the part of the Palmaists of be- ing victorious and that consequently the majority of them remained at home and did” not vote. La Lucha says that this light vote can be taken as a protest from the Cuban pecple against the imposition of official candidates. The Diario de la Marina says that the result is an indication that ‘the Cuban Democracy may look upon an Ameri- can, nolicy’ as inevitable SANTIAGO DE CUBA. Jan. 1.—The mu- nicipal government of this city celébrated the victory of the Nationalist party at the polls yesterday and the inauguration of the new year by raising a silk Cuban flag forty feet long over the city’'s end of the palace at midnight last n{iht.

MEXICO CITY, Jan. 1.—The situation in the Pan-American conference continues critical, and probably not until the day after to-morrow will the fate of the gath- ering be known.
