Belief that the Railway War is Settled
Gould's Operations at the West-Stock

Belief that the Railway War is Settled
Gould's Operations at the West-Stock
Rumors.
NEW York, Jan. 1S-Wall street reports
state that there are indications that the trunk
line war has really been settled, and that the
terms of settlement are not intended to be made
public. 1t is certain that meeting OF the
trunk line managers was held Saturday Uni
form rates on both east and west-bound freights
were established on Monday. The schedule OF
west bound rates was made low on account OF
the necessity of meeting time contracts on west
bound freights. 1t is believed that west-bound
rates will rule low until July, but that east
bound rates will be quietly advanced as fast as
practicable.
A Baltimore dispatch reports Mr.. Garrett
disposed to ratify the action of the other Presi-
dents, and it is understood that another
trunk line managers meeting will be held to-
day.
The fact that Vanderbilt houses are bull
ish on Reading in the face of heavy offerings
strengthens the suspicion that the stock is
being sold down preparatory to great ad-
vance.
ST Louis advices state that Mr.. Gould has
come TO terms with the Denver and Atchison
people in regard to road from Laredo to the
City of Mexico, by which only one road will be
built. There is a very bullish feeling in DeD-
yer, outside the circle of its especial friends.

1t is reported that the Dominion Government

The Judge Thinks Year will be Con-
sumed on Them.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The hearing in the
straw bond Star route cases was resumed in the
Police court to-day. Col. Bliss opened the pro-
ceedings by handing to the first witness, Louis
Watkins, contract Office clerk, a pile of pa
pers, about two feet in height, which the wit
ness was asked to identify Objection was made
by the counsel for defence to what they de-
scribed "Wholesale Identification of papers,"
and the witness was directed by the court to
step aside and examine them separately. Crois-
SAINT, another clerk, was recalled apd some
time consumed by defendants counsel in cross
examining the witness with view to making
him acknowledge he could not positively iden-
tify the papers as belonging to the official
records of the department. Further discussion
ensued upon admission of the papers in bulk,
the defence demanding their contents be read
before admitted as evidence. Judge Smell
finally directed that Identification of the papers
in bulk be proceeded with, remarking modem
tally that the course proposed by the defence
would consume the time of the court for
year. At go the court adjourned without
having made any substantial progress.

The spuyten puyvil Disaster.

Ano OPQytcA Ouy VA 1ioc1o10A'
New YORK, JAM 1S-The Governor sent
message to the New York Senate to-day rela-
tive to the late railroad disaster, in which he
says: The tragic fate of your late associate, and
the fact that the lives of many members of
both branches were imperrilled, are calculated
to impress on your minds with peculiar force
the vital and urgent need of prompt considera-
ton of the subject of railroad disasters and
means to prevent them. That an accident that
was absolutely inexcusable could occur on the
line of the chief railway of this State and with
in the limits of the great metropolis demon
strate most painfully the importance of some
careful statutory provision with adequate PEN
alties to enforce obedience and responsibility
in all necessary precautions for the conduct OF
railways Trains should be required by law to
be supplied with all available appliances for
breaking into wrecked cars and for the extin-
guishment of fire.
A bill was introduced in the Senate to-day
providing that every passenger, mail and ex-
press car shall have at each end one good fire
extinguisher and serviceable axe

Murphy who claims that during the presiden-

Reported Desire of MIR. Gladstone to Sc
cure Papal Interference in Ireland.
NEW YORK, Jan. 1S.-The Sun prints the
following:
Rome, Dec. 30.-In spite of all denials by the
official organs of the English Government
can assure you that Mr.. Gladstone has really
turned toward the Vatican, asking for help in
the Irish question. He would make almost
any concession to persuade the Pope to send
secret agents to London to pacify the country
and to direct the influence of the clergy to
that end The mission of Mr. Errington has
not been successful thus far. The Pope is not
willing to supply spiritual constabalary for
the furthering of Mr.. Gladstone's purposes.
