The i Brltlah steamship Dumbarton.

Ths steamer reached here this morning.
, "We left Karatsu, japan, on marcn

while we ' were passing through ths
Tsuruga - strait, near the island oi
Tcsso. we were signaled to stop by an

The officers asked me If -I warned to

Daners to that effect, and I could sign
them and -they would be forwarded to
the proper i authorities.' I replied that
I cared to make no complaint, and they
then bade ,me good morning and sailed

In ths afternoon of the same day the
steamer, wss again-overhauled, and the
samB. formalities were gone through,
but the commander of this craft, signed
his nam and the name of his-vessel
In the Dumbarton's logbook. Captain
Rettle says hs is unable to decipher the
oriental chlrography. As In the former
case he declined to enter a protest.
"The, officers. did not have much t

GREATEST CONTEST IN

(Jearaal Speelal Serrle.)
New Tors. April It. Ths Journal to
day says: Either J. P. Morgan. James
J. Hill and allies, or E. H. Harrtman and
the Rockefellers will be In sole control
of the. Union Paclflo after Mar S. On
that date the stockholders of the Union
Paclflo oompany -wUl vote upon a new
Issue - of. 100,000.000 preferred stock,
which has been approved by the board
of directors, and one of the most bitter
battles In the, history of ths war to
control the' railroads, which has been
going1 oi-for three years between tha
two. factions, will be decided. ' ' . -
Morgan men declare they own and
oontrol the system, and that Harrtman'a
purpose in asking that- 1100.000,000
stock be lasued is to give him a chance
to get' hold of enough new stock to get
hack the control, which Morgan bought
unknown to him. t .
- Wall street learned 'yesterday the
story of the recent developments in the
light Tor control of the Union Paclflo.''
Harrtman vtwo weeks ago discovered
his control wgs in danger, and called a
meeting of the directors. A (loo.ooo.ooo
stock Issus was then decided upon.. One
big Wall strset operator talking of this
tight, said yesterday i
"There la no doubt mis cob teat win
be the greatest that has ever ' taken
place, in flwall street"
At the annual meeting-of the stock
holders of the Northern Securities com
pany yesterday,' Amos T. French was
sleeted a director in place of E. H. Har
rtman. Harrlman's displacement Is the
culmination of the long-standing enmity
between the Hill and Harrtman parties
Jn the ' Northern Securities company.
Harrlman interests hold lel.ooo.ooo or
Northern Securities shares, which -was
not voted at the meeting, and which
has-been .denied representation In the
dlrectorv.' , . . r . , .,
- This indicates that Hill has defeated
Harrtman in his great light in which. he
la now. victorious for . the. control of
ths Northern- Securities company. It Is
evident that the battle is not to stop
here, bat is being aggressively pushed
on all sides by the Hill and Morgan in
terests and is a bitter fight to a finish.
At nressnt it looks as if the . Hill
forces stood a good chance not only of
holding their own with the Northern
Securities merger companies, but of
wresting control of the Union and
Southern Paclflo from ths Harrtman
faotlnn AnA diarradlttnv Harrtman in a
