CHICAGO, September 10. S. a. Galloway,
vice president and general manager Of the
Union Pacific, arrived in the city last evening.
lie said the statements in regard TO the con.
tcmplated changes of officials of tho Union
Pacific are entirely unfouuded, and were owl
dently coucocted with u view of making
trouble between his predecessor and himself.
The late general manager, Mr.. Clark, had
the entire confidence of the board Of directors,
and no Galloway had tho highest esteem for
him officially and personally. Clark's retire.
ment was due entirely to i'll health, and was
considered by all II great misfortune to tho
company. If any changes would be deemed
necessary hereafter by tho board of directors,
they certainly would not he made, MS had been
stated, because the present incumbents were
appointees of the former administration.
MIR. Galloway stated business on the road
was good, and that in consequence of the eX.
cellent condition which the road had been left
by MIR. Clark he had no doubt reductions
could be made in the operating expenses the
coming years, as the whole of the main line
was now laid with steel rails and was well
equipped. In regard to the tripartite troubles
Galloway stated the position of the Union Pa
citic was for peace, and it was willing to make
any reasonable concessions to bring about am.

partitc combination. lie thought this could
he done without going back on tho po-
sition heretofore taken by tho Union Pacific
regarding the carrying out of the tripartite
contract. He was aware of the fact that those
troubles had to be adjusted in some way or
another before the difficulties about trans.con-
tinantal Utah und Colorado pool scould toe def
tinately settled. lie entertained great hopes
that the meeting in this city next week would
be able to surmouut all difficulties, and that
peaceful relations between the various roads
would bo restored. Galloway said cropS in
Kansas and Nebraska had been reported to
he better than they had ever been before and
he had great faith in tho future of tho road,
feeling confident it would in time again he.
come an excellent property, as 1t had
been in the past. 1t was expected the Ore
gon Railway and Navigation company's por'
ton CT the Oregon Short Line would he com
pleted to Harrington, where connection is to
be made with the Union Pacific line, by next
November, when trains will he run over the
Union Pacific through to Portland, Oregon.
The completion of this limo would insure TO
the Union Pacific a large portion of the Ore
gon, Washington Territory and the Northern
Pacific coast business, and help to largely in
crease its earnings.
