About Railroads.

Chicago, 4.-The Burlington &
Quincy declines to enter into the
new western railway alliance or
the terms accepted by the four other
Iowa lines This is the result of Z
two days conference between al
the roads in interest, which closed
this afternoon. The session to-day
continued from 10 am. till pm
Ali the roads are being represented
by their general managers. The
proposition advanced TO the Burling-
ton was that it should go
IN the new pool on the same
terms as the North western,
but this general manager Potter. of
the Burlington, said he was pre-
pared to absolutely decline. This
emergency had apparently been
guarded against. and the Burlington
will be requested to state on what
terms it would negotiate. A counter
proposition was then suggested,
that, IN order to maintain the rates
and thus prevent war, two distinct
pools cover ali competitive business
on the line of the Union Pacific
road as far west "a Denver. The
Union Pacific and its four present
allies - the Northwestern, Rock
Island, Milwaukee and st. Paul,
and Wabash forming one pool. and
the Burlington and its branches
forming the second pool. To this
the Burlington was not prepared to
return an answer, and adjourned to
the 18th inst, to receive the Bur-
lington's ultimatun.

Denver, Col. AT o'clock this
afternoon the Tabor Grand Opera
House was discovered on fire. In IN
incredibly short time the flames
burst from the roof, and the danger
of total destruction to one of the
finest theatres in this country

and concerted action Of the FIRE de-
partment and the Opera House bri-
gade, the fire was soon under
control. The damages were con-
fined to the fifth floor of the north
west corner. It is estimated that
the loss is 5000, distributed among
fifty companies. The cause was
defective f1ue. There were no seri>
Gus accidents. The theatre proper

Arctic Affairs.

Washington, 4.-Several Arctic
explorers appeared by request before
the Greeley relief board to-day, and
gave their views in regard to the
equipment and management of the
expedition which it was proposed
to send to Smith Sound next spring
DR.. Byrnes, who was chief of the
scientific corps of the Arctic
steamer POlaris, expressed himself
in favor of an expedition up TIE
coast of Grinnell Land in small
open boats, in case it should be
found impossible for ships to get
through. Mr.. Norge Kinnan, of
this city, whose Arctic experience
was gained in Siberia, described the
travelling and carrying methods of
the natives of that country, their
sledges, snow shoes, dress, sleeping
bags, etc., and recommends the
adoption of many of them by the
leaders of the projected expedi-
ton. He also made a number
OF general suggestions concerning
relief for Greeley's party, among
them the following: First, that the
government offer reward, as other
governments have done in similar
cases, to the officers and crew of the
whaling vessel which should find
and relieve Greeley and his men;
second, that the board make official
for advice and sugges-
tlons to DR.. George Mares, Captain
Stephenson and Commander Mark,
ham, of the British Arctic expedi-
ton OF 1875, who are probably the
best living authority on Smith
Sound or its neighborhood; third,
that the leader for the proposed ex-
petition be selected at once, that he

Important to Gamblers.

Chicago, Judge Smith. of the
superior court, rendered decision
to-day declaring unconstitutional
the act of the legislature under
which damages could be recovered
from the owners of houses in which
money had been lost at gambling.
The decision is an important one
the principal reason given by the
court is that the Constitution pro-
vides that each act of the legisla-
ture shall have title, and that only
one subject is to be embraced in
one act.
