THE CANADIAN PACIFIC.
Progress of the Construction of the Road.

San Francisco Chronicle, Dec. J..
Andrew Onderdonk, to whom the contract
for building the western end Of the Canadian
Pacific Transcontj Dental Railroad was award
ed, returned TO this city few days ago from
the scene OF operations. The length of road
required to be built under The contract is 1876
miles. The route offers very serious obstacles
in SO far as speed of progress is ce,ned,
on account of the high precipices which have
to be crossed and the general rocky nature of
the country, requiring for the g, eater portion
to be sheived and gallefied. About sixty
miles Of the line have been graded and at
least twenty miles j,oned. The cost of con-
structing mile is $4,000. The force of
white laborers employed IN the works num-
bers about 1900, with like number of Chi
nese. This win be increased IN the spring
to 10000 men. The whites receive 81 day,
the Chinese being paid half that amount.
Along the road stores have been opened,
where the provisions and clothing needed By
the laborers can be obtained. Boarding
houses have also been opened, at which
whites are charged $40 mouth aud Chinese
$40. The explosives are manufactured at
the scene Of operations, all other supplies
being received from this city, England, or
Canada. The contract price FOR building the
section Of the road for which Mr.. Undertook
is the contractor is slo,O0o,00O. He expects
to complete bis contract in about three years.
The road, thsrgh originally naugarated by
the Dominion Government, has been recent
~ turned over to the Syndicate. The entire
distance Is $500 miles, and the road, when
completed, will be the longest unbroken
line In the world. IL will be completed In
1890, st cost Of seo,OO0.o00. nefort will
then be made to control the Oriental trade,
and with this end In view Hue Of steamers
will b placed on The Pacific, with the proba-

Small Pox Localities =.

CHICAGO, Dec. 5.-A dispatch from St.
Louis says 7. w. Hatch, said to be Secretary
Of the California Board of Health. writes TO
the st. Louis Health Commissioner, that that
State has quarantined against Chicago and
that trains on the Central Pacific Railroad
have introduced small pox in five counties
along the line in California, and in every
case the disease can be traced to Chicago ar
rivals. in st. Louis there is great deal of
small pox, twenty-six cases being reported
from quarantine. In relation to this dis
patch the Chicago authorities say they have
no official information of the fact and are In
clined to doubt it. They say, however, that
if San Francisco guarantees against
Chicago, then they will quarantine
against New York out of necessity.
The small pox is indeed very
prevalent here and has broken out III many
first class localities of late. Two thousand
people were vaccinated at the Health office
to-day and there were 40 deaths from the
horrible disease last week. A smallpox
epidemic is feared and there is a genuine
scare.

The Pay OF the DoctoTs.

New YORK, December "A Washington
be brought up in Congress is the settlement
of the bills incident 10 the late Presidents
illness. General Garfeld's friends will sd
vocate tho appointment Of o commission to
audit all bills ana make statement to the
Secretary of the Treasury, whom they will
ask to be given power to pay the arount
from any money in the Treasury not other
wise appropriated. 1t is thought in this way
the matter may be quietly settled without
any undignifed squ.bbling in Congress. The
physicians have been asked b. the financial
agent of Mrs. Garfield to send in their bills,
but they have refused to 90 so. DR.. Bliss
said he would net think Of taking anything
from Mrs. Garfield, what would be p mere
bagatells t. the Government. DR.. Agnew
has figured up his direct loss through his
connection with the case, and it amounts, 1t
is reported, to $500. BLISS loss IF prac-
tice and expenses incident to bis devotion to
the President, amounts also to semc $40 ,0oS.
This shows nothing for constant service, any,
iety and labor as nurse and physician nigh:
and day for the long weeks Of the Presidents
illness. Agnsw and Hamilton did not give
ell their time TO the case, or their loss would
have been much greater; but DR.. Bliss sur
rendered bis en:irc practice OF necessity.
Drs. Agnew, Hamilton, and Bliss, 1t is ez-
pected,' will consider $4,000 apiece about
fair compensation for their work. DIS.
Barnes and Woodward are officers of the
government, so that they suffered no pocani
airy loss from their connection with the case.
The physicians hope that the matter will be
settled before the holidays, and Gen. Gar
fields friends desire it settled before the eu-
logies are pronounced.

U. S. Supreme Court has affirmed. The
point decided is that relocation Of mining

located, and the right TO which has not pre-
yious TO such relocation been lost by aban-
donment or failure to do The necessary work

WE notice that Judge Wade has rendered
a decision in the application of the indie
pendent for writ of mandate on the terri
torial auditor requiring him to issue war
rant to that paper for the full balance
claimed by them as due for printing 300
copies of the Comfy engrossed bill known as
the codifed statues. The Independent had
the contract for doing for two yeGis the
printing for the territory at the rate allowed
by the Treasury Department Of the United
States at the time such contract was made.
The territory ordered 800 copies Of the
Comfy codifcation printed but limited the
compensation TO $500. The Independent
did the work and put in a bill for the
amount at their contract rates. The lrgis-
lature refused TO allow the excess over ST.
500 and Messrs Voolfolk, McQuaid d La
Croix carried the issue to the courts. They
have been adjudgsd the full amount claimed.
IL always seemed to us that as legal propo-
sition the case could have but this result and
1t was best the publishers sought determine
ton by the courts. The balance awarded
was 81, 3S2.7s.
