The Great Splegelt the man
BEAVER BEFORE
who
- soils Beaver Oil. is making a hit with
that great remedy. and there are a
number of our people who are singing
Its praises. ills nightly talks at the
corner at Washington and Water
streets last week drew his audiences
and were very interesting, and espcc»
iaily us they relate to the beaver and
the habits and characteristics of that
peculiar animal, several of which he
exhibits. It is remarkable to know
the great number of people who had
. never seen a beaver until they saw
those. owned by Mr. Spicgcl.
.. (treat. cures have been effected by
him which attract considerable atten-
tion. Nightly he has the opportunity
at demonstrating the marvelous force
of this great discovery, Beaver Oil, for
many of. our citizens were relieved of
their pains and achos Inside at a tow
minutes in the presence of a largo
crowd. which congregate to cm the
free entertainment. while others n'io
have purchased his medicine are
banding in their testimonials full of
praise for the great. work done. It
seems that Beaver Oil has cured citi-
zens of this city of rheumatism, back-
ache. sprains and earns where the
medical profession has failed.
The beavers are now being exhibited
uptown and upon request Mr. Splegel
will give. one more performance Mon-
day night. so it you have not seen
their nightly pranks, do so at once.
for it is a chance of a lifetime to see
these curious animals.
A flour contest is announced for
Monday, an not causing considerable
fun and laughter for the audience.

RMLROAD INVESTIGATION.
Reports Affecting New Haven and
Boston a. Maine Not Regarded
Seriously.
NEW liAVlGJ. August 2-i.——ln rail-
road olrclos here. the report that the
government is making an investigation
at the alleged illegality of the proposed
merger of the New York. New Haven
and Hartford Railroad Company. and
the lionlon & Maine is not regarded
as serious. except as such investiga-
tion might be followed by positive
steps to prevent the merger. In that
case the result. might bu grave, not
only to the New Haven company. but
to other grout railroad Interests of
the country which have absorbed conr
pctitive roads. in the meantime the
policy of the New liavon corporation
is simply susponaive and awaiting
new developments, and also awaiting '
the next meeting of the Massachusetts
Legislature, when the merger is likely,
alter election, to ilgurc loss actively
in Massachusetts politics.
A high railroad authority referring
to tho general subject today. said it
bad a three-fold aspect. As regards
the element of competition. bringing
the proposed merger under the anti-
trust law. the factor at ctmipctition in
the iiouton & Maine cans in reduced
to very low terms. it applies practical-
ly only to Fltobbury. and tho Fitclllml‘g
lino oi the liostoll & Maine as u re-

tlvo territory cxciumulng with each
other a grant volume of trailic. For
all practical purposes the proposed
mother in one of non-computing syn.
toms and very different from the acute
competition affected by the Northern
Becliritlcs decision.
The second aspect of the situation
is the fact that in the Northern Securi-
tioa case a New Jersey corporation
acting as a holding coinpuny. carried
through a kind of railroad non-contact
itlvc trust in direct: violation of the
law oi the state of Minnesota. in the
present case by contrast there in tho
simple and direct absorption of one
railroad system by another withpro-
aumplivo lmaont oi atmokholders. and
as the New Haven hits claimed. with-
out any violation of state law. liven
in the. case of the acquired Massachu-
setts trolleys. the New Haven corpor-
atlon has claimed to be within the law
as a Connecticut corporation.
A third phase of the case is the din
rent bearing of the proposed merger
upon the question of public convene
tattoo and necessity. The New Haven

dation; and to it can be added the com-
parison of rates and fares for the last
ten years show greater reduction by
the New Haven than by either the'Bos.

. The foregoing may be taken as rep-
resenting in substance the railroad
view here of the suggested interfer-
ence by the. government in the New
Haven and Boston & Maine merger.
if such interference should come, it
scents possible it might apply in force

latter of the Central New England, and
to mergers in the past actually rail.
