A MOVING MOUNTAIN. it Mores Fifteen Fret a IaT Causing Great Alarm and Mnrh Wonder. The object of greatest interest iu con tinental Europe at this minute is a walking mountain in Hard, France, which is moving toward the river of the same name at the rate of 15 feet a day. The advance has destroyed the machin ery in the pits of the Grand Combe col liery and nearly a mile of the Aim's rail way. The great thing now is to prepare new channels for the (Jard and Uardon rivers, which are sure, when the land slide comes, to be completely choked up. Six buudred persons have been obliged to leave their homes at Grand Combe. The lower strata of the mountain, which rises sheer from the valley, are grit and green marl. Both ha e given way owing to filtration of rain. Recently fi.000 per sons went from Nimes to see the mov ing mountain. The noise it inukea is frightful, and there are wide cracks in all directions. Nobody is allowed to go on the mountain or into the valley on which it advances.

That was the dearest bottle of champagne on record. It cost millions of dollars. The Baltimore and Ohio is tho oldest team railroad in this country. The first stone of its roadbed was laid in Baltimore on the Fourth of July, IS'JS, with elaborate ceremony. Over it orig inal length of nine niili k mules dragged its cars. Then IVler Ctsiper, a maim- facturer of Xew York, took to Halt more a steam engine a curious concern, sunt thing like a boiler with a stovepipe iu it.

He wished 1 .... a .a besides to rival Ins great father as a railroad man. There was ono ruilroad between Phil adolphiuand Ualtimore. Robert Gar rett wanted it for the Baltimore and Ohio. Tliomus A. Keott wanted it for the Pennsylvania railroad. That railroad was tho Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore. Just ut that time it wns naturally the most desira ble thing in the world to tho Baltimore and Ohio und to tho Pennsylvania. Robort Garrett generally got anything he wanted. Wanting tlio Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore, he looted arouud to see how he could get it. Ho learned thut several of tho largest own ers of the stock lived in Boston. They owned almost half tbe stock, and with thut in his possession Robert Gartett could easily get control of tho majority. So ho went to Boston. His negotia tions were eminently successful. His oiler for tho stock was accepted. Robert Gurrett went to New York. Already in his niiud's cyn lie now the Baltimore aud Ohio trains rolling into the Phila delphia, Wilmington und Baltimore de pot at Broad and Prime streets, Phila delphia, for all that remained was to sign some pupers. Now, bo it remembered, Robert Gar rett was nover a self contained num. Ho drank deep. Arrived iu New York, ho went to a dinner party with some of his old friends. Some corporation lawyers were among them. At thut ilinner tho bottle of chum pngne that cost millions was opened. Robert Garrett drunk it. Flushed, ho could not keep his triumphant secret. 'Congrutulateme,"hocried. "Drink to the U. aud O. and her nutlet to Phil adelphia. Iu two (lays I w ill control tho P., W. aud B." More corks popped. But ono man, whose logs wore under tlio mahogany, did uot drink. Heexcused himself ubout 10 p. m., pleaded a pressing engagement and left the table. Ho took the first train he could catch to Philadelphia. Thero ho was driveu to the house of Thomas A. Scott, RittenhouHii square and Eighteenth street It was long aft er midnight. Ho aroused Mr. Scott, a plain man. Mr. Scott went down stairs with his nightgown tucked in his trou sers and his st king less feet III slippers. Tho limn wiio hud dine I w ith Kohort Gurrett told S-ott of Gurtett's tsstst, "Iu twoduys?" mused Scott aloud "We'll sen." Instantly Scott sent for his asislnt, Captain John P. Green, now vn-o presi dent of the Pennsylvania railroud, and for some of the diteeitom. The confer ence lasted until daylight That morn ing Captain Green took the first traiu to Boston. Other men t-ltwe to Scott went flying in the directions where they knew P., W. und B. st.s-k was held. By 2 o'clock the next day the papeil wero signed that gave the Pennsylvania control of the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Tho stock was to be de livered in Xew York thut night. Cap tain Green went to Philadelphia, and in stantly returned to New York carrying a big satchel. The satchel Itsiked aa if b was going on u long Journey. It was fut aud heavy. R D- Barkl.y. assistant to the president of the Pennsylvania, helped Captain Green carry It. That sutchel contained more than IV COO, 000. Captain Green paid it down on the duiI spot cah, aud the P..

The Pennsylvania road, (hiding that Robert (iarrett could get iuto Philadel phia, determined to patch up a truce with him.

Perhaiw lie had heard thut Robert , Garrett, ut that time, owned 140 pairs! of trousers. It is extremely improbable that old John W. Garrett ever owned two pairs of trousers ut one tune. ! Whether or not ho knew ulxuit tho : trousers, Mr. Morgan surely know of I Kobert Garrett's eccentricities. In a word, Robert Garrett's mind was un balanced. Ho was a paretic. Samuel Silencer, who was vice presi dent of the Baltimore and Ohio, becamo president in Mr. Garrett's steud. Mr. Spencer is of tho firm of Drexel, Mor gan & Co. , and he is a flue railroad man. Ho began to economize rapidly, no up set all tho traditions of the Gurrett management Ho smashed Baltimore's gods. All the Garrett family, all Mary land, rose in protest Miss Mary Garrett, who, of course, inherited n great fortune from her fa ther, old John v, put her hand in her pocket.

And it is said Stephen Little, tlio ex pert accountant who went to Baltimore to examine the Baltimore mid Ohio's books, found the books doctored. There are hints of Journal entries that bear the initials of tho odlc-er requiring thorn to be mutlo, thus to relieve the accountant of the responsibility. Enhancement of tho market prices ot securities is inudo on the btxiks to uppeur as income, and no chango was mado wheu the value of the securities again declined. It is understood, too, thut Mr. Littlo found 150 engines laid up, use less for want of repairs. John K. Cowon, who resigned his seat iu congress to become tho Balti more and Ohio's president, is now made a receiver of tho property for tho United States courts. Ho will coutinuo to oper ate the railroad much as though nothing had happened, but the creditors of the company will lie told wheu they press theirclaims: "Yon can do nothing.
