Pacific railroad company, is substan-
TALLY as follows:
The sale of the entire property and
franchises of the company, under the
foreclosure suit, will take place accord
ing to the order of the Court the first
week in August. 1t is now reasona-
bly, assured that the committee, OF
which Mr.. Johnston Livingston Of
New York is chairman, appointed by
the bondholders in March last, will bid
in the road, land, and charter as an
entirety, for the benefit of the bond
holders. The company will then be
reorganized, with the present bond
holders as preferred stockholders, on
a basis substantially like that present.
ed by the Livingston committee,
This basis has now been concurred in
by a large proportion of the holders
of the bonds, and the committeeantic.

reorganization will be Immediately
followed by vigorous effort to push
the road 500 miles further west into
the mineral and cattle-raising region
of Montana, as a means Of making the
whole property availableand remuner-
alive. The court has been asked to
modify certain features of the decree
of sale which were misunderstood by
some of the bondholders, and this
modification, it is understood, will re-
move the only objection that has been
urged against the pending measures
for resuscitating this great undertake

new plan of operations are strong. in

with the company wholly freed from
debt as it will be by the approaching
change, the work of construction can
speedily be resumed and the invest.

made good.

A DEADLOCK between the city au-
thorities and the insurance men in
Kansas City, on the subject of the
water works, resulted Monday in the
destruction of about $40, 900 worth Of
property. The flames originated in
the explosion of q stock of fireworks
in fruit store, and thence to a ware
house. Owing to some dispute about
the water-works, the city authorities
refused to allow the water to be used
in putting out the fire.

Another dispatch was received at
the Indian bureau Tuesday from Pro
fessor Janncy, in which he reiterates
his former statement that so far he has
not found gold enough in the Black
Hills to warrant any extended min

teen miners near where heis encamped,
who claim that they obtain from five
to fifteen cents, worth of gold to pan
full of earth. The Professor states
that he has tested it several times,
and cannot make an average Of over
half a cent per pan. He describes
the character of the formation, and
says it does not indicate gold.

richer in gold than has heretofore
been supposed. The earth down to
bed rock in every direction is filled
with particles Of gold, and the quartz
