Cedar Rapids Republican: THE Chica-
90 and Northwestern railroad company
require every man in their employ to
subscribe to the following pledge before
entering into the services of the company /:
Il hereby agree and promise that while
am in the employ of the Chicago &
Northwestern Rail way company, l will
entirely abstain from the use of intoxicat-
lug liquors of every kind, including ale,
beer, and wine, and that l will not fire.
quent or visit dram SHOPS, billiard saloons
or other places where such liquors are
sold, and that l will refrain from the use
of profane, abusive or improper language,
and will endeavor to treat everybody
with all due respect and courtesy. Fail
ing to keep these pledges l shall expect
to be discharged from the services of the
company"
That is all right and is commendable
on the part Of the Northwestern COM
pany, but it seems to US as though some
thing about handling baggage ought to
be tucked in somewhere in that pledge.

A Crash Expected in Consol.,

NEW YORK, November 81. A special from
New Orleans says the following exact figures show
a crash 10 the State consos is imminent, and will
probably take place to-day. The amount due
January lst, for coupons, is 1913 AS the appro-
pration to pay parish assessors is SIS 900; appro-
pilatlon to ply clerks aud contingent expenses,
$780, board of liquidation appropriation, $500 /;
commission to tax collector is estimated on the
rolls of 1877, ~ $780, interest due fiscal agent for
money advanced, $500; total due by the interest
fund, January lst 1852 ,99j; cash on hand S35l
I35; probable collections outside are estimated at
10000, leaving deficit of S26l $50. Coupled
with this Is ring which holds 1850 one thou sand
dollar bonds, and the margin has been carried by
the Citizens' bank.
All summer one of the ring men was receiving
certified checks TO as high an amount $l00, 900,
with no funds in the bank. The hacker of thi,
ring Is heavy exporting house and large stock
holder in the bank, but even these enormous re-
sources are exhausted, AID yesterday the ring
stopped buying
The foregoing figures show conclusively that
the State will be compelled to default ON interest
in January. The fiscal agent, already largely her
creditor, cannot advance, and heavy deeliue in
Stale cOnsols to-day seems inevitable. II a tum-
Bile should occur it viii ruin a number of nstita-
tons IN this city, as transactions in bonds have
been altogether speculative.
