A Plot TO Burn st. Louis.

lrTOHi tuc Ct. LOUIS 1tmesJ
For sometime past the police officials
have been on the alert for incendiaries and
thieves who we're privately reported to
be making St. Louis rendezvous for a
bold stroke. Those who have had occa.
sion to notice the Toice court docket for
several weeks cannot but have noticed the
unusually large number of suspicious
characters who have been brought before
the terrible judge, and sent out Of the
city forthwith under penalty of six
months in the work house. Some of
these parties, we'll known to the detec
lives as desperadoes and professional
thieves, have, in passing through the
hands Of the officers, let drop certain hints
and threats Of an impending evil to the
city in the form of conhagration. AL
though these threats were not relied upon
to any great extent, yet tho force have
been vigilant and watchful to detect any
concerted movement.
About week ago the chief of police
received tho following letters, which
seem to throw more light on the plots.
The dates on the envelopes are correct,
aud the whole appearance Of the letters
indicate that they are genuine and not
intended for a hoax:

value to the United States, while ttt

The Lincoln County herald., 1873-01-22
What the "Credit MObilier" Is.

The affidavit of Thomas G. Durant,
one Of the original members and organ
izers Of the Credit Mobilier combination,
gives fair idea Of its character and in,
tentions, a subject concerning which
many readers are no doubt imperfectly
Informed. MIR. Durant says: "Wben
the Union Pacific road was under con.
struction o ring was formed inside the
direction, embracing, as such o sombi
nation always does, the shrewdest, mos,
active, aud least scrupulous of the board
for the purpose of making large fortunes
for its members in an illegitimate man.
ner, at the cost OF the road and of the
uususpscting stockholders. As usual
the object was to be achieved by mea ms
Of constructing contracts. Through the
votes Of the ring tho work was to bt
awarded in lump to some dummy con-
tractor, at price double or more than
double the cost, with fair profit added
for, as a great many cupacious appetitcs
had to be satisfied, an ample margin wa!
necessary. The contractor was then tc
make over the contract to the ring di
rcctors. in the capacity IF stockholders
of the Credit Mobilior, the prctense being
that the Credit Mobiier had the meanl
to push the work vigorously forward
aud would be better able to do SO thar
any single individual. In pursuance o
this conspiracy for it was nothing els
the contract for the construction Of {
large portion of the road at fifty thou
sand dollars a mile was awarded and dul,
assigned to the 'riug'-a price which
according to DR.. Durants's statement
was more than double the legitimate cos
of the work. This, however, was no
enough. BY the votes Of the conspira
tors many miles Of the road which hat
already been constructed and accepted b,
the United States government as com
plete, aud which had nearly all been pai'
for by the Union Pacific company, wer
included in the contract at fifty thousan,
dollars a mile, and thus an euormou
amount Of money was taken bodily. as i
were. out Of the pockets of the stock
holders, without shadow of justification
and transferred to the greedy grasp of tn
ring. The shares Of the Credit Mobile
were thus made at once worth from eigh
to ten times their face value that is t,
say, a single thousand dollar share wa
worth from eight to ten thousand dollar
IN cash."

Tribune
Tho remarkable polar hurricsne whicf
swcpt southwafd over this state on Tues
day last, has left behind iss sad rccorc
Of casualties, hus fsom information nov
| reaching the city the number Of DEATH
will not sustain the early estimates. Th'
history of the hfst appearance OF 'h'
lamentable consequences may DC briehj
stated as follows: Tuesday vas milo
damp day, and those having occasion tt
leave their homes had little reason to On
ticipste the fierce gust which set in dur
ing the afternoon, and, in many instances
no adequate provisions had been made
for such an unexpected situation. The
weather continued mild until about 4
O. clock in the afternoon, the hour when
its approach was observed by the resi-
dents In the frontier settlements, in sud.
denly increasing sloudiness and q heavy
roaring sound in the distance. For a
few moments the earth was swept by q
tremendous wind, and the temperature
fell with wonderful rapidity. People
living 10 the sparsely populated sections
of the state we're taken entirely by sur
prise. Many we're at q long distance
from home and without sufficient cloth.
ing. 1t is not surprising, under the cir.
oumstances, that SO many fell victims in
its path, each struggling, ice-bou nd
laocoon. The storm continued with only
temporary lulls until Thursday morning
when 1t gradually abated its fury. The
velocity Of the storm is reported between
New Ulm aud St. Peter, travelling FROM
point to point in thirty minutes, dis
tance Of twenty.eight miles. Had the
cold been great, the number Of deaths
would have been fsarfully increased but
while it wss at its height, the mercury
stood from five to eight degrees above
zero. 1t is entirely without precedent
in the history of the state, and only finds
parallel in a polar storm which swept
over the state of Illinois in 1886, de.
stroying many lives, and leaving an i'm
perishable record in the minds of those
who experienced its fury and terrific
power.
1t is impossible to mako On accurate
estimate of the number who have beer
frozen to death or seriously MANNED or
the line of the ST. Paul and Sioux City
road. The number Is variously estimated
at from seventeen to thirty four, with the
probabiliti in favor of the number frs,
gwen. The authenticated deaths thu.
far do not reach seventeen. In that sec
tion of the state, many reported lost have
returned home safely. On the line of the
St. Paul and Pacific the number of deaths
will net vary greatly from the estimate
for the region traversed by the Sioux
City road, that country also being thinl,
settled. and owing to the difficulty in th'
way of obtaining reliable information th'
estimates are larger than the facts viii
warrant. But tho real fatality is sufi
GENTLY depressing, Notwithstanding th'
more hopeful news brought here to nigh,
Few names accompany the reported losse
of life. A large number Of cattle ant
horses must also be included 10 the state
mert of tho destruction which has char

Ex Treasurer Hays, in his report
thinks that the action of the Twenty
sixth general assembly, in passing an act
directing the payment Of certain state
bonds in currency, the face of which
stipulated that they should bo paid in
coin, has seriously impaired the credit Of
the state. lie says the full consequence
must be realized shortly. when the state,
unable to discharge its obligations Us they
become due from current revenues, shall
again become a borrower it will then be
made manifest, unless. as is hoped, tho
policy be reversed by the present general
assembly, as tis much moro economical
to rigidly adhere to and fulfil contract
than to avoid it through technical plead.
