GITY RINGS INGREETING FOR SCHLEY Famous Commander Is Warmly Welcomed to Chicago. Many Thousands Cheer the Rear Admiral on His Arrival. Distinguished Sea Captain Declaves on Three Occasions That He Has No Intention of Seeking Political Honors. CHICAGO, Jan. 2.—Rear Admiral W. 8, Bchley to-day thrice declared that he had no intention of entering politics. His Temarks were calculated to set at rest for all time the political ambitions which some of his admirers have entertained for him. He said that no office, however high, would tempt him to jeopardize the love which the people of this country have expressed for him. The day for the admiral was a round of receptions, at each of which he ex- pressed his gratitude for tokens of es- teem and approbation. The demonstra- tions reached their climax in the banquet | siven in his honor by the Hamiiton Club | In_the banquet hall of the Auditorium. Schiey arrived at 9:30 a. m. and was greeted with tumultuous acclaim from | thousands of people who crowded the | Baltimore and Ohio depot and thronged ! nearby streets. He was officially greeted by a delegation from the City Council and a company of naval veterans of the Civil War. Alderman Frank Fowler, on be- halt of the City Council, presented the following resolutions: ‘Whereas, The city of Chicago is honored by & visit from Rear Admiral Winfleld Scott Schley, and Z Whereas, Our citizens are ever ready to ap- plaul valor, honor and merit, and hereas, We recognize in Admiral Schley's achlevements, his character and his bearing, one of the foremost naval heroes of all times, Whose splendid record at Santiago will forever be the pride and inspiration of his grateful countrymen; therefore, be it A Resolved, By the City Council of the cit of Chicago, that the city of Chicago througl its Mayor and Municipal Council, takes pleas- ure in making this public acknowledgement of the distinguished services rendered by Admiral Schley to his country and extends tp him a heartfelt welcome. Whistles Shriek Welcome. Admiral Schley, accompanied by Mrs. Schley, was met in his private car at South Chicago an hour before the train | arrived in the city proper. The delegation represented the city and the Hamilton Club, whose guest the admiral will be | during his stay here, which ends Tuesday morning. As the train drew into the outskirts of the city’ factory whistles blew their wild- est notes and hundreds of people rushed down every street leading to the tracks | Wherever pos- | sible the admiral answered: back through | the windows of his car, bowing his head | and fluttering a handkerchief. Mrs. | Schley seemed to enjoy the demonstra- | tion ‘even more' than her distinguished busband. | A double line of policemen stood at the depot when the admiral alighted, but they were unable to restrain the crowds, which straightaway went wild at the | slfiht of the easily recognized goatee | which showed above the heads of the guards as an un ! mjstakable mark of the wearer's {dentity. “A delegation of school- | children, waving nngs} greeted the visitor at the farther end of the station.. The Municipal Council’s resolutions were sented, and the admiral and Mrs. Schley were driven through ~ demonstrative throngs to their apartments—the “Presi- dential suite” at the Auditorium, Here Admiral Schley retired to don his ‘“‘shorée togs,” as he expressed it. At 1l a. m. he | was given a breakfast by the reception committee of the Hamilton Club. The first table was laid for twenty-one per- sons. Among these present were Gov- ernor Yates, Mayor Harrison and former Comptroller of the Treasury Eckels. Resolutions of Praise. At the conclusion of the breakfast a del- egation from the Board of Commissioners of Cook County and Commissioner Hoffer presented the following resolutions: Whereas, The services rendered by Admiral Bchley during the Spanieh war were the means of presenting such unprecednted skill and ef- ficie °y as to command the admiration of the civilized world and greatly enhance the dig- nity and importance of our country in its in- ternaticnal relations, and ‘Whereas, There has as yet been no adequate reward or official recognition of the merits of some of the officers whose heroism and fidelity were most consplcuous, of whom may be es- pecially enumerated Admiral Winfield Scott Schley, Captain F. A. Cook of Admiral Schiey’s flagship Brooklyn and Captain Charles E. Clark of the famous battleship Oregon, to- gether with other of the gallant officers and men who won battle on land and sea, not yet rewarded; therefore be it Resolved, That we consider it but simple Jjustice to these gallant officers and men that their distinguished service should be properly rewarded without further delay, and we do hereby respectfully request the authorities of the United States Government to adopt with all due haste such measures for this purpose as may be most becoming and which will best be calculated to express the desires of the great body of people who belleve that there should be speedy and complete recognition of the services of all who contributed to the glori- ous victorles of the nation. At the Press Club the reception was re- fieated‘ except that of the two or three were ‘women. re- undred persons present fully 50 per cent A number of men who were the admiral referred in his short speech of thanks as follows: “I want to say that these boys were al- ways to the forefront—one of them so much so that I was afraid that he’'d be sunk. At the time I wished he was any- where else. But the boys were brave. {t isn’t pleasant to be shot at. but these boys stood up and were not only shot at, but couldn’t shoot back.” At the Booster Club, of which he is an honorary member, the admiral, still in a Jovial mood, addressed a few happy re- marks to “My fellow members.” In the course of his speech he again indicated i his feeling in regard to the political pre- ferment which has been talked about for him. “'T have been deeply toucned by the trib- he ‘said. my future years I ghall never accept any office however high, which might jeop- ardize that love. It is the dearest thing I haye. It is the greatest crown a _man can have on this earth. and when I am gone 1 want it left with my children and their children as their dearest possession.” On his way back to the hotel the ad- miral stonned for a few minutes at the g}mlcba,go Athletic Club and the Woman's ub. - SCHLEY AT A BANQUET.

HARRIMAN TELL OF Bl DEAL Organizer of Combina- tions Befors Interstate Commission. Like Hill, He Says Competi- tion Does Not Lower Railroad Rates. Insists That the Common Interest of All Systems Affiliated Under Northern Securities Company Must Be Considered. CHICAGO, Jan. 25.—When the second day’s inquiry by the Interstate Commerce Commission into the ‘‘community of in- terest” combination of the great railways of the Northwest opened to-day the United States Court room, where the in- vestigation was held, was crowded with well-known railroad men from all over the country, eager to learn more of the detalls of the inner workings of the gi- gantic Northern Securities Company from the master mind that conceived it. E. H. Harriman, who organized the | Southern Paclfic-Union Pacific combina- | tion, and who was Hill’s opponent in the struggle for the Northern Pacific-Bur- lington control, was the first witness. When Harriman went on the stand the line of questioning by W. A. Day, coun- sel for the commission, led up to a state- ment of the great Wall street panic last May, when Northern Pacific shares went up to §1000. Harriman had testified that the Oregon Short Line, aided by the Un- ion Pacific, had purchased some $78,000,000 of Northern Pacific stock and that the Unlon Pacific, through the voice of its directors, controlled the Southern Pacific. | 1t was developed that all this Northern Pacific stock, which was held in the name of E. H. Harriman and Winslow Pierce, was sold last summer, Explains So-Called Contest. An_ effort was made to learn why the purchase had been made only to sell again, and this brought from Harriman the statement that he was flnd to_ex- lain the so-called “contest” in the New ork Stock Exchange, which resulted in the famous “Black Thursday.” “I don’t think there was any contest,” sald Harriman. ‘‘Some of us—the Oregon Short Line people—thought it would be advantageous to have an Interest in Northern Pacific and purchased stock that was lying loose all over this country and Europe—held by five to seven thou- sand persons. We made no contest for the control of Northern Pacific—we pur- chased a majority of the capital stock. We purchased prior to the supposed con- test and no stock was acquired during the panic in May.” Day tried to show that the contest for Northern Pacific stock was the forerunner of the panic on 'Change, but Harriman insisted that such was not the case. “‘Some of the stock,” he continued, “we had bou!ght in markets all over the world. Some of this was on the way from these various markets to be delivered. In the meantime the sellers borrowed.” Questions were then put that indicated “jobbing” had n resorted to in the purchase, and which brought the Nv: “The sfock was purchased in New York from persons who bought from owners. Then when the so-called . contest ctmo thelr ve | sellers found it daifficult to tulfill contracts. Our Interest in every case the persons all the time they wanted.’ Natural Conditions Control. An attempt was made by the commis- sion to draw out statements to the effect that the flnaN'sale of Northern Paoific the Oregon Short Line, as con- the Union Pacific-SBouthern Pa- cific syndicate, was onlinl.ner an under- standing or truce with Hill and the .;:g. posed interests that combated for North- ern Pacific in the panic. Harriman said that after the purchase was made he and his colleagues thought the matter over and they thought better to sell again. He implied that it made no flflerence really who owned Northern c. Commissioner Prouty asked: “If you had secured a few more million of North- ern Pacific it would have made a differ- ence, would it not?"’ “We could have had it, was the reply. The questions as to just wh; ‘Harriman had disposed of his Northern Pacific hold- ings, what was lost or made by the trans- action, and whether Hill had made some agreement In case the holdings were sold, brought from Harriman the response that natural conditions controlled. He said that he did not know of any gain made except that his interests found out that they were strong enough to hold their own in Pacific traffic. He said his impres- slon was that the Oregon Short Line had not lost by the transaction. He sald Hill cluded free. DRS. SHORES KE: ciose DRS.

Harriman replied: ““There is a common interest among us all, and we belleve that common interest will be served regardless of holdings. That common interest can be served by natural conditions. Our inter- ests are 80 in common that we cannot in- jure others without injuring ourselves. Common Interest of All Systems. Harriman insisted that the common in- terest of all systems now affiliated under the Northern Securities Company must be considered rather than the so-called community of interest. He said he was a member of the board of directors of the Becurities Company and Hill was its pres- ident, but the combination under that| company affected rates in no wise. He told how, shortly after the scramble over | Northern Paclfic stock, Mazgan h: n given a proxy by him in order to sell the | stock again. It was understood the sale was to be effected in cash and securities— the latter in the Northern Securities Com- | pany if it should be organized. Harriman eventually controlled about $60,000,000 of | the stock of this company. The question | if the formation of the Northern Securi- | ties Company and the association of so | many roads might influence rates brought | a denial. *“It may enable us,” d Harriman, “when brought so close together, to elim- | inate the prevalling distrust as to the varjous lines maintaining. traffic rates. The complaint has been of too high rates. | We may be able to stop the diserimin: tion in rates of one shipper against an other.” He stated that this, however, need not have been done in h a company. The | suggestion was made by the commission | that this company might also prevent re- duction of published rates by competing | roads. He did not consider the company | afforded a power of concentration for | pooling. Other large considerations than | stockholding, he held, influence rates. “If Hill or myself owned all the roads the people would get better rates because | of conditions. With a freer hand we | could the better regulate rates to any | " w}la added that he did not think compe- tition ever reduced rates more than tem- rarily. WA! th% conclusion of his testimony Har- riman took a speclal train for New York. Hill, who was not called again to the stand, was excused and accompanied ‘Harriman. Railroad Presidents Heard. George B. Harrls, president of the old and new Burlington companies, then tes- tifled as to the transfer of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad Com- pany’s effects to the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railway Company, promised to furnish the commission a copy of the | ninety-nine year lease of the road and | said that none of his conferences with Hill or others had any reference other than to the eral efficlency of the road. He said it was the hope of the new com- to be able to reduce rates, and said such reduction would follow only natural conditions. He favored publicity for all rates transactions. Charles 8. Mellen, president of the Northern Pacific, was then called. Mellen ¢aid his conferences with J. J. Hill were not more frequent or potent than those with any other presidents of Northwest- ern roads. He said there were no agree- ments between the Northern Pacific and either the Great Northern, Union Pacific or Canadian Pacific roads on allotment of traffic or on differentials. The North- ern Pacific was just as independent In its KING EDWARD MAY INTERFERE Objections to Bishopric Selection Irritate Ruler. LONDON, Jan. %.—The efforts by ap« peal to the courts to prevent the confirm= ation of the election of the Right Rev. Charles Gore to the bishopric of Worces- ter attract wide attention. It is understoed that King Edward Is annoyed by the indignant objections to his nominee, and it is quite probable that the anclent form for the confirmation of the prelates may be abandoned, thus avolding giving the ecclesiastical agita- tors the opportunity v ‘ch they might bave of making a distu..ance. The law involved by the appeal to the courts will cost an enormmllm-m of money, and it may be contim over a protracted period. The evangelicals are determined to fight to the bitter end, while the Archbishop of Canterbury has retained Sir Edward Clarke as counsel, and Dr. Gore has a formidable array of lawyers. Commenting on the affair the Globe says: “The right of the King to appeint Bishops of the natlonal chureh is too firmly established to be contested, and in these days there is no fear of the right being abused.” TRAIN LEAVES TRACK AND PASSENGERS SUFFER TFive Persons Are__SGfloufly Injured in Wreck Caused by a Broken Rail.
