BUYING CP COAL AND RAILROADS
P. Morgan and Guggenheim Inter
cats Have Plan to Practically
Own Alaska's Industries.
Washington, Feb. 19. Senator Bev-
eridge, of Indiana, got his committee
on territories into action today and
within a short time had established the
fact that the Alaskan syndicate owned
by J. P. Morgan & Co. and the Guggen
heim brothers had a steel grip on the
natural resources of that territory.
The fast of significance brought oat
is that the Morgan-Guggenheim syndi
cate has an option on the celebrated
Cunningham coal claims through which
came the quarrel that resulted in
Gifford Pinchot being dismissed as
United States forester and' brought on
the so-called Ballinger-Pinchot inves
tigation now under way.
These claims, according to the testi
mony brought out by the Indiana sen
stor are now held in escrow awaiting
the decision of the government as to
whether they are valid. If they are
eventually approved, the Morgan-Guggenheim
syndicate will come into pos
session of them. The Alaskan syndi
cate is the general name lor the vari
ous companies operating in Alaska, all
being owned by the Morgan-Guggenheim
crowd.
It was shown that the syndicate was
formed in 1906 by the purchase of 46
per cent of the stock of the Northwest
ern Commercial company, which
owned the Northwestern Steamship
company and the Northwestern Fisher
ies company. The latter company
packs 300,000 cases of salmon annual
ly, as compared with a pack of 2,000,
000 cases by other interests. Last
year the Alaska Steamsip company
was formed by reorganizing the com'
panies in which the syndicate had
Dougnt large interests ana it now
operates 12 steamers, or rather 11, as
report) today indicate that one has
been lost A long list of steamship
companies in which the AlaBka syndi
cate has no interest was given in sup
port of its claim that it was not a mon
opoly. The railroad owned by the syn
dicate is now 102 mileB long, and is to
be extended to 199 miles.
Both Messrs. Steele and Birch in
sisted that there was no truth in the re
ports that the syndicate had. or was
seeking, a monopoly of railroads,
steamship lines,fisherieB, copper mines
or coal lands in Alaska. Tbey denied
with great emphasis that they were
Utrying to "gobble up" Alaska.
ROOSEVELT HUNT OVER.
Party Leaves for Khartoum All Are
In Perfect Health.
Gondokoro, Soudan, Feb. 19. With
the departure of the Roosevelt party
down the Nile, the eat hunt of
BwanaTumbo through the wilda of
East Africa closed today. The story
of the "portly mapter," replete with
stirring incident and full of admiring
praise for his prowees as a mighty
hunter, will now take its place in the
lore of the native who worships him
as a king from a foreign land.
It is probable that there will be sev
eral little aide trips for bunting on the
way to Khartoum, but these will be of
little comparative importance and it is
rot expected that any big game will
be found. The members of the party,
all of whom are well and apparently
have thrived upon the outdoor life of
the jungle, consider that the big hunt
is over.
Conboy Jury Disagrees.
San Francisco, Feb. 19. Although
ngly rumors of jury fixing, perjury and
police inactivity are in the air follow
ing a disagreement by the jury which
heard evidence in the ease of former
police captain Michael J. Conboy,
charged with killing Bernard Lagan,
no direct charges are made against
anyone concerned. The Conboy jury,
when discharged late last night, stood
10 to 2 for conviction. Two of the
jurors maintained that the evidence
did not warrant conviction, and refus
ed to change the views.
Finds Buried City in Gautemala.
Belize, British Honduras, Feb. 19.
Count M. Deperiguy, a French arch
aeologist who has arrived here, reports
the discovery of an ancient buried city
in Guatemala, two miles from Bonque
Viejo, near the frontier of BritishHon-
duraa. He declares that the ruins in
dicate that the inhabitants of the city
bad attained a high degree of civiliza
tion, even approaching that of the Ro
mans. The count will ask the consent
of President Cabrera to excavate.
.Khartoum Prepares for Roosevelt.
Khartoum, Feb. 19. Although for
mer President Roosevelt is not expec

city is rapidly filling with visitors anx
ious to greet him. It is estimated
jthnt Khartoum will entertain the
I greatest crowds in its history when the
' distinguished American reaches here.
