THE UNION PACIFIC.
The Report Of President Charles
Francis Adams.

New YORK. Nov. 7.-charles Francis
Adams, President of the Tn on Pacific Rail
way. sent the following dispatch to Sidney
Dillon, explaining the financial condition OF
the company: During the months from
July to September we received just 81 ,0o0 900
a month"; net, from Omaha. BY net mean
over and above the Omaha draft. During
october we received si.s5o,0oo, and paid
$4,000 on Omaha drafts, leaving us net
profit of s.. .3O0. 900 for the month. Between
now and the first of January expect TO re-
eeive s2,000,00o, 10000 Of which will be
necessary to provide for coupons and matur-
ing obligations which must be paid off, but
| am confident we will have ia these two
months sl,500,000, net to apply to
.i%.,d the floating a. debt | may oyeres, oyyers
not think 'neSd DO afa'ss Tbe Pullman "s notes us
given. for our share in the contract are re-
duced now to $4,000. The company owes us
about $4,000, meanwhile our accounts at
Omaha are in better condition than they
have been for long time. There are no
arrears on vouchers and the auditor reports
everything well paid up. The reduction OF
| gross earnings for the past month was large
| ly due TO the fact of the changed method oil
keeping accounts. Last year we credited
ourselves with about $40, 900 to be paid OF
coal used for our own locomotives. o.
| course We never received this money and 4
/ went into subsequent expenses This yea-
the system OF charges in actual and appar

| during September, therefore we practically
/ received more In money than last year.
| propose to come on to New York next weel
ond take hold of the floating debt. From
this time forward the plan is to reduce |

until IL is extinguished"

Goats and ramines.

According to the IRdida Forester famines
in India are caused by goats. The goats OF
India appear as a rule, TO live always on the
brink OF starvation. as, indeed, goats almost
everywhere seem TO do, collecting scanty
livelihood out of the barrenest materials.
Especially, however. do they attack the
green shoots and topmost twigs of every
Sonng tree which they come across. A herd
Of goats, numbering say, from l5,0O TO
20 O0O animals, as is sometimes the case in
the desert tracts of Asia, is not likely TO leave
much Vitality in the sapllngs that grow
ia its line OF grazing. These saplings
therefore never grow TO trees. The
old trees, unless reinforced from time TO
time bya younger growth, die of, and whole
forests thus disappear. Without forests the
rainfall ceases; without rain the crops fail.
In spite of the enormous extent OF Indian
plains, 1t is altogether possible that the ae-
lion OF the goats must be thus indirectly re-
sponible for Indian drouths. 81. Helena. as
every one knows, has been converted from a
Garden Of Eden TO bowling wilderless
owing to the importation of the goat alone,
In Cyprus, too, the diminished rainfall and
consequent steriiity is attributed almost en-
tirsly to the herds OF goats which every
Cypriote appears to keep, and which have
long ago devastated the vegetation Of the
Island

NEW YORK, Nov. IA difference of nearly

between the Associated Press footings and

plurality by AL. An effort has been made to
get t.s election districtsreported separately.
The footing Of the districts as received in

having been incorrect at first namely favor

this: Several errors have been discovered
