NV York. July 16.-It is stated
o by the Northern Pacific Railroad
Company that the rapid develop
ments In Washington Territory
and the demand for railroad facil-
tiles have determined them to COM
mence the construction of II road
from the Columbia River eastward
10 Pen d'Oreille Lake, a distance
of seven hundred miles. They have
accordingly issued a circular call
ing for an additional $2,o00 COO.
The subscriptions closed yesterday,
The entire amount having been
taken by the stockholders, and the
construction will begin as soon as
the line can be located. Ten thous.
aud tons of steel rails were pur-
chased to-day for this road.
fine Darien snip Canal.
NEW YORK, July 16.-The 3rib
une says: The active part which
Lesseps is taking in the Darien
Canal project naturally inspires
considerable confidence and awuk-
ems general interest. Having ac-
complished great work of the
same kind under adverse circum-
stances he oug ht,it is assumed, to be
qualified to determine the feasibili-
ty of this enterprise. But the
influence of his example is
necessarily limited. Already it
is suggested in France that
careful estimates, based on a
thorough survey, should be made
before Lesseps asks for suDscrlp
ton of $S0,000,000. People will
also desire to know what profits
the canal may be expected to yield.
Toe Suez Canal cost about S90,000,-
900. For the first two years its eX-
peases exceeded its receipts and
profits. Since then they have been
very small, the net earnings hav-
ing been only $967,395 in 1877.
Lesseps is entitled TO attentive con-
siderntiou, but when the enthusi-
asm of the moment has sub
sided his appeals for capital will be
met inevitably by the inquiry,
"Wll it pay ?'
A sad Case.
NEW YORK, July 16.-John ID.
Sloat, well remembered by old
Californians as being the sou of
Commodore Sloat, who captured
California ports and raised the flag
in 1916, applied to the station-house
for shelter few nights siuce, hav-
ing wandered around the city all
day. 1t is believed he is deranged,
and friends have taken him in
charge. He has been lawyer
and notary here for many years.
