BUYING DP COAL AND RAILROADS
P. Morgan and Guggenheim Inter
est Have Plan to Practically
Own Alaska's Industrie.
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 fact of significance brought out
is that the Morgan-Guggenheim syndi
cate has an option on the celebrated
Cunningham coal claim 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
ates are now held in escrow awaiting
the decision of the government as to
whether they are valid. If they are
eventually approved, the Morgan-Gug
genheim syndicate will come into pos
session of them. The Alaskan syndi
cate is the general name for the vari
ous companies operating in Alaska, all
being cwned 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 bad
bought large interests and it now
operates 12 steamers, or rather 11, as
reports today indicate that one has
been lost. A long list of steamship
companies in which the Alaska 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 miles 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, fisheries, copper mines
or coal lands in Alaska. They denied
with, great emphasis that they were
trying 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 great hunt of
BwanaTumbo through the wilds of
East Africa closed today. The story
of the "portly mapter," replete with
stirring incident and full of admiring
praise for his prowess 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 side trips for hunting on the
way to Khartoum, but these will be of
little comparative importance and it is
1 ot 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
ugly rumors of jury fixing, perjury and
police inactivity are in the air follow
ing- a disagreement by the jury which
heard evidence in the case 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 lata 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.

to man the sense of amazement. They
teach us that the world Is a wonderful

has no self-love. I am certain that nc
man can love his neighbor unless h
