BISMARCK?S PLANS.

Il G,o,ring Goodness Bet,ceen Germany and
England apparent.
The growing GOODNESS between Ger
many and England is attracting much atten-
ton, and is beginning to be looked upon as
serious. The general opinion is that Bis
marck is sorely irritated at Gladstone's
contemptuous and semi.hostile attitude
toward the schemes Of German colonization,
in western Africa, in which it Is notorious
that Bismarck is greatly interested. It is
hoped, however, that Bismarck will re.
train from making any such open manifesta-
ton Of his dislike to the present govern
ment as it would result in alternating that
large and powerful body Of Engiishmen
who sincerely desire to maintain cordial re-
lations with Germany. Much depends upon
the coming parliamentary election. 1t is
certain that II the tories come into posses
sion of the government, England will speed.
ily become member OF the Austr0- German
alliance. In the meantime there ia great
curiosity concerning the import to England
of the conference at VarZin between Prince
Bismarck and Count Kalnoky, the Austro.
Hungarian premier. 1t is freely asserted
that the German chancellor is disguised
with the failure of the Egyptian confer.
ence and Gladstonien policy generally. He
is planning Joint note from Austria and
Germany to England demanding the prompt
settlement of the Alexandria indemnity
claims and the enforcement of proper SAM.
tary regulation in the Egyptian allies.

DISPUTED ACCOUNTS

For the Settlement Of Which Proper Steps are
Notr Being Taken.
The Omaha Herald says that Mr.. John s.
Blair, assistant attorney of the department of
Justice, and Judge Wilson, of the firm of
Shellabarger s. Wilson, of Washington, have
been taking the dispositions of various Union
Pacific officials, in the action brought by the
company against the United States, for set
Element of disputed accounts. This action
has a two-fold object, first, to find to what
amount the government is indebted to the
railway for the transportation Of supplies,
mails, etc.; and, second, to find what is due
the government from the railway under the
Thurman sinking fund act of 1878. The facts
are about as follows: The Union Pacific has
been doing transportation work for the Unit
ed States ever since 1871, under the supposi-
ton that when presented its bills would be
audited according to the charter, Eat fair
and reasonable compensation" which was
mot to be more than paid to private parties
into the treasury per cent. of its net earn
inCS as q sinking fund to provide for the pay
ment of the debt due the government. In
1878 the Thurman act increased the payment
net earnings. When the company presented
its accounts, the bills for transportation were
thrown out by the United States officials, who
alleged that they were not based on fair
and reasonable compensation, and the claim
of the company that the cost of certain items
Quoted from the earnings of the road before
the % per cent. was taken out, was disputed.
To settle the matter the present suit was
commenced but when or how it will be deter
before the court of claims at Washington in
November.

When Napoleon talked of invading

insurmountable, but Napoleon respond

So the famous Simplon pass was made.

Competing Insurance Companies
have been circulating unfavorable re-

State Insurance Company, of Des
Moines, Iowa.
Auditor Brown, of Iowa, has just

all Iowa Insurance Companies) and
publishes the follow ing in his official
statement: "The Company has an &C
tual paid up Capital of 100000, is
financially sound, and reliable, one of
the strongest Companies in the State,
and is justly entitled to the confidence
of the public. This Company has a
surplus as regards policy holders of
S2O0,S12. 49," This is after ruling out
overdue farmers notes, judgments and
interest, Office furniture and supplies,
$685., 900. These assets are good for at
least IS cents on the dollar which would
give the Company surplus of about
100000. You can rest assured that
the Company is solid, and these I'M
favorable stories told and published by
competitors are told and published to
