Chicago, 4.-The Tribune. this morn
Texas Pacific land grants. It's Washing
ton correspondent telegraphs as follows;
The index TO the Interior Department
files showed that in 1873 @. P. Hunting
ton, Of the Central Pacific, filed letter
sharply attacking the Texas Pacific
grant, but the letter could not be found
in the files. It has been foun1. 1t had
been mislsid and could not be found IN.
til the return Of the Gle clerk. The text
OF the letter follows. 1t will be teen that
IN February, 1873, Huntington described
the Texas Pacific road ss having no more
substantial existence than could come
from drawing line OF pegs and scratch
ing up furrow OF sand; yet in 1858 the
Southern Pacific company claims that
the Texss Pacific road, although still
slime Of pegs and furrow in the sSnd, "
earned, or WAS entitled to 5000, 600 Of
acres, of which by assignment che South
ern Pacific is now the rightful owner.
Then follows letter addressed by Mr..
Huntington to Carl Schurz, the
Secretary Of the Interior. Hunt
ington wrote in the capacity Of
agent and attorney for the Southern
Pacific Railroad company. The letter
has special reference to one written by
Vice President Brown, of the Texas
Pacific, IN which the latter seeks to pre-
vent the Southern Pacific from bridging
the Colorado river and entering the Ter
ritory OF Arizona. Huntington says
whatever claim the Texas Pacific had
has lapsed, aud the letter continues: "The
Southern Fscific hes its road actually in
operation to Fort Yuma, and by con-
tinuous line Of nearly 900 miles connects
with the road Of another company, 30 as
10 afford direct and unbrokeE Oommuni-
cation With San Francisco. and the exist
ing network OF railroads all over the
country. The Texas Pacific hiss no read
nor pretense Of any nearer than eastern
Texas, more than 1000 miles swSy.
Moreover, at the very moment when this
letter purportS ito have been written by
Vice. President Brown, his company WAS
not constructing any road, but had
suspended its construction, and was,
instead, declaring before Congress its
inability to continue the construction,
unless aided further by the Endorsements
Of government upon Its fifty year old
bonds. With what show of justice, I
ash, can it Get up claim to the exclusive
right Of crossing the Colorado river by
bridge, when it has no road nearer than
1900 miles as against the California
corporation with its road and locomotives
on the spot? The Texas company seems
to have moderated the intelligence and
determination of the California company
By supposing that all that was necessary
to bring our trAcklAyers to . halt could
be done by driving q line Of pegs and
scratching up furrow Of sand ct what
it was pleased to designate as point of
junction, and they seem to have over
rated their own powers to make the
executive department believe they had
more right to the reservation ground and
to bridge the river with not G rail nor
locomotive within 1900 miles, than we
had our continuous road there and our
trains at one end on the BRIDGE"

A Stand AGAINST Crashon,

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.-Capt. John b.
Furay, late Post Office Inspector at Oma-
ha. Neb., has taken issue with the Post
master General in behalf of 81 post office
inspectors in the country, and intends to
contest the retroactive force of Judge
Gresham's decision fixing the per diem
allowance for expenses at the actual daily
expenditure while travelling. Furay
claims that the change was made in No
Vember, and therefore could not affect his
October account. The Post Office Depart
ment held the reverse and asked Furay to
send in his bill on the new basis. Furay
wrote very sharp letter to the depart
ment, denying the right to change the pay
of an emplOye without his consent, after
the service had been rendered. Upon re-
ceipt of this letter he was removed. Fu
ray intends to bring the matter to an issue
by an appeal to the courts.

THE GROWN PRINCE IN SPAIN.
\ Royal Bull Fight. Banquet and Re
view in Madrid

\ Royal Bull Fight. Banquet and Re
view in Madrid.
Addrid cable to PhHddeIphid Press, Noe. e5.
Prince Frederick William, the German
Prince Imperial, was this afternoon en-
tertained by King Alfonso with a special
bull fight. The bull-fghting season closed
on October 80, but. when the Princes
visit to Madrid was arranged, King AL
fOnsO ordered the Plaza de TarOs kept
open, and started arrangements for
a fight of unusual character. Great
pains were taken to secure
a young and powerful bull of uncommon
ferOcity, and the matadOTe's fee for killing
this beast IN the presence of the German
Crown Prince was increased from the
usual one of 81, 200 to $1,000. The uncOm-
mon spectacle of a royal bull fight so late
in November drew an immense crowd to
the amphitheatre, and over 10000 specta-
tors secured admission. The bull, when
led into the arena, set the audience wild
with enthusiasm over his condition and
mettle.
King Alfonso took great pains to make
clear to his guest all the fine points of the
different attacks made upon the bull to
produce in him the proper state of rage to
make his encounters with the picadOres,
and, finally, with the matador, who, on
this occasion, was the greatest in Spain,
as savage and sensational as possible.
Inc two earlier stages of the fight, in
which the bull is angered with the Grim
son cloak and then maddened with small
darts, were made UncOmmOnly interesting
by the marvellous deXterity enforced upon
his tOrmentOrs by the saYagery of the
animal. When the bull was at length
sufficiently wild for the third stage of the
hight the scene became one of eXtraOrdi-
nary excitement, every one of the trained
horses being thrown, and one of them ter
ribly gOred, although none Of the plea
dOres was injured.
Prince Frederick showed intense inter-
est in this, the snowy part of the fight.
The last portion of the battle was con-
Quoted so skillfully on the part of the
matadOr that its effort was lost upon the
Prince. The man at once faced the en-
ragged animal with the beasts sharp horns
almost touching his body, and with sin
gle thrust delivered the fatal stroke. The
Spaniards went wild and declared the
killing the finest that had been seen in
Madrid for years.
The Crown Prince has expressed him
self as delighted with his trip to Spain.
and has promised King Alfonso TO come
back, bringing his family with him.

STUNNING THE SHENANDOAH.
Officers and Sailors Say the Vessel Is Top
heavy and Refuse to Sail in Her.

heaVy ana hetuSe TO sail in Her.
Boston, Nov. 27.-The advertiser SAYS
the United States steamer Shenandoah,
which is now awaiting orders to sail, is
not likely to secure her full complement
of officers, for almost every officer who is
ordered to her at once endeavors to be re-
lieved. Seamen do not like the prospect
of going around the Horn in this vessel,
and their feelings are greatly intensified
by the actions of the officers. 1t is, of
course, without thorough investigation,
difficult to say whether this aversion to
going off in this vessel is due to the pro-
verbal superstitiOusness of seafaring
men, or has its origin in tangible things
that could and ought to be remedied.
Sailors claim that the vessel is top
heavy and that they are crowded together
like sheep. Yesterday the executive
officer of the ship, Lieutenant Com
mander E. b. Thomas, and Lieutenant
Lucien Flynn were surveyed by medical
officers, and on his report will probably
be relieved from duty on the ship. They
have only been aboard for about week,
and their probable removal only makes
matters worse in the minds of the sailors.
