NEw YORK, January 26th-A. M.-The
Worlds Washington special says of the con-
solidation: 1t is thought that the managers
of the California trunk lines have resolved
not to abide by the legislation inaugurated
by Thurman. The design is to throw the roads
upon the hands of the Government with
worn out rails and rattle-trap rolling stock,
they having festhered their nests by pur-
chases of stock at low rates and selling it at
par, and never bending their energies to put
up the Kansas Pacific and Denver extern
siOns. IL is said here that bona tide holders
of Union Pacific stock will contest the fusion
as unjust to their properly, AID that
the so-called unanimous consent of the
Directors of the road lacks the confirm alton
proceedings nor resigned his position as a
Director. keene is a large holder of Union
Pacific, and has only an inconsiderable guam
tity of Kansas Pacific, which was selling a
year ago at from 12a5 to q, and which these
contriving manipulations have raised to above
par. Rats are said oquit sinking ship, and
this may account for Gould's disposal OF his
Union Pacific and his Identification with the
Kansas Pacific.

adds: The fact that Jay Gould, who fought
the Western Union with the Atlantic and
Pacific Company, until he traded it off to
that company. is the moving spirit in the
present company, has suggested belief in
Wall street that the present enterprise was
undertaken for the same purpose, namely, to
sell out.

SAMUEL BRANNAN's CLAIM AGAINST THE
MEXICAN REPuBLIc.-The following is from
the San Francisco Bulletin of January 9th ::
The press kilograms from New York yes
terday reported that there was recorded at
the Registers office in that city, the previous
day, chattel mortgage, given by General
Sanchez Ochoa, individually and as agent
for the Republic of Mexico, to Samuel Bran
nan of San Francisco The instrument was
made, the dispatch stated, in September,
1865. in consideration of loan for sixty days
of 1913, AIS %, and was lien upon 10000
coo of bonds of the Government of Mexico,
and that these bonds had been deposited in
the Bank of Commerce in New York. When
Macmillan landed at Vera Cruz. in May,
1864, he found the Royalist party in posses
sion of the Government the Republican
troops were scattered, and Juarez and his i'm
mediate followers were fugitiyes In the fol-
lowing spring, Samuel Brannan was pas
senger on one of the Pacific Mail steamers, on
his way from Panama to this city, and met
Juarez and other well-known Mexican officers
who were on their way to the Gulf
States of Mexico. 1t was in Northern Mex
leo that Juarez formed the nucleus of an
army which overpowered the Imperial forces
and captured Macmillan. At that time
Samuel Brannan was a man of considerable
wealth, and sympathizing warmly with the
Republican cause, offered to aid the move.
ment with money. ,Juarez accepted the
proffered assistance with alacrity. Imme-
diately upon his arrival here, Brannan sent
sum of ready money to Juarez, and set about
raising company of men to go to his sup
port Soon afterward General Gaspar San
chez Ochoa arrived in this city, and arrange
ments were perfected by which detachment
of men and supply of arms were soon after
ward dispatched to Juarez. They succeeded
in joining him and aided materially in his
future successes. 1t is not believed by friends
of Brannan in this city that any funds were
given him at this time, but the Republic al
ways recognized the justice of his claim, and
promised pecuniary reimbursement. The
well-known want of funds, which is char
acteristic of the Mexican Treasury. has, how
ever, up to the time, not resulted to the
financial benefit of Brannan. When he left
here several months ago he visited the City of
Mexico and it is reported that the Govern

Homicide atUkiah.

UKIAH, January 24th.-At about o'clock
this morning the quiet people Of Ukiah were
startled by the double report in quick sue
sion of pistol and all instantly rushed to the
street. The cause was the shooting of John
Corder bya party named Logan. A moment
before. Corder, crossing the street to the
hotel, was about to shter the house Just as
Logan stepped ont of the saloon of Wal
Hogan. Seeing Logan, Corder drew his
pistol and shot at him, but missed his mark.
Logan then ran up to the door and fired a
fatal shot The officers ran to the Ukiah
House, and in a short time the room, side
walk and streets were full of anxious in
quirers. Officer Jamison turned the custody
of Logan over to he care Of Sheriff Moore,
wHo conveyed him to his office. On entering
the hotel JaInison found Corder seated on the
floor with a cooked pistol in his hand, and
wound in the right side, about three inches
above the nipple. As the officer wrer che1 the
pistol from his grasp, Corder exclaimed:
Take it. He has killed me-" and in about
thirty minutes breathed his last on the floor
where he fell There is but one opinion as
to the shooting and that it was justifable, as
Corder had been hunting Logan with shot
gun around town all the morning. An in
quest is now being held

New YORK, January 26th-A. M L.

regular correspondent at Washington, be-

advanced Blaine's prospects as a candidate
for the Presidency. He writes long letter
to-day, giving his reasons for the belief.
The Times Philadelphia special says of the
Blaine boom in Pennsylvania: AS matters
now stand, there will be a strong but not
effectively led delegation for Blaine in the
Convention which meets at Harrisburg on
Wednesday of next week. Out of 251 dele
gates, perhaps one-ffth will be instructed for
him. Instructions have been given in his be-
half in Delaware county, which sends three
delegates; Montgomery, 6 Lehigh, 4 /; Craw-
ford, 8; and in one or two districts of Luz
zerne, making, say 20-and instructions are
likely to be given in Chester, electing dele
gates, with the chances good of similar action
in Bucks, 8; Northampton 4, and perhaps
one or two others.
The Times dispatches show that at least
half of the Ohio Republicans are for Sher-
man, while Blaine stands second. The Penn
sylvania Democrats favor Hendricks.
