New York, October S.-The Tribune
this morning publishes the translation
of two reports of the Union Pacific
Railroad. From the 1ribune's state-
ment it appears that two years ago the
U. =. Railroad attempted to negotiate
the sale OF large quantities of its bonds
in Europe. Applications was made to
the Union Bank of Vienna, and also
to capitalists in Berlin, aud tho result
was the appointment Of two Commis
toner's, who came over to America and
made a personal examination OF The
road and part of the region through
which it passed. Two reports we're
made, one to Berlin capitalists, and the
other to the Union Bank of Vienna.
The reports presented in pretty strong
| light the advantages of the u. L.
Railroad, and tho extent of traffic the
road must ultimately obtain. They
concurred in the opinion that for some
years after its completion the Company
would be unable to pay interest on it,
bonds, and agreed in advising Euro,
pean capitalists not to invest in it
The advice of the examiners wa.
adopted and the negotiations at Berlin
and Vienna fell through.
