UNION PACIFIC FINANCES
The Officials Say They HaYe $500, 200
Ana Are Ready to Liquidate.

BosToN, October 9.-It is reported that a
hitch has occurred in the Union Pacific
Railroad negotiations whereby 100000
was to be borrowed from trust company
in New York, which has 100000 in land
grant trust funds on deposit. The collat-
eral is understood to be St. Joseph and
Grand Island stock, and certain parties in
power are understood to have objected to
the transactions as involving too much
risk. The Union Pacific officials here, how
ever, deny all knowledge of any hitch and
say, in fact, that they have had no negotia-
tions with any trust company in New York,
excepting to endeavor to induce one COM
pany to allow of an advance payment On
certain claims, comprised in the floating
debt. 1t is officially asserted that the
Union Pacific Company now has in bulk
fully $1,5OO,OOO, which it will use with
other funds whenever it can do so to ad-
vantage in making advance payments OF
outstanding claims

After the ceremony she took the down
train and atte .ded school as usual. The
Young man vent on his way rejoicing, but
being rather top-heavy, told the good news
and it soon spread. The young lady spent
the day at school and returned home Ii IN
the evening. Her parents were none the
| wiser. She went to school as usual the
| neyt morning, but was soon taken home by
her parents.

and vineyard at La Messilla. In shipping
his fruit he employed assistance, and one OF
his helpers was very ordinary young Mex

Wood, the Judges daughter, a pretty girl
and graduate Of Vassar College, and the
young Mexican took fancy for each other,
and they determined to get married. Last
night the girl left home, joined her sweet
heart, who was waitingfor her with buggy,
and they went to Doanna. They called
upon Justice OF the Peace, but the } Jus-
tice refused to perform the ceremony unless
they had witnesses to Miss Katie's age or
her fathers consent and the young couple
separated for the night. This morning
Judge Wood went for his daughter, but she
refused to go home with him. He then pro-
cured a warrant for both of them and they
were brought before Justice Butschofsky,
of this place, who continued the case.

PILLS DOWNED By HYMNS.
SaIyationists and a Venter Of Quack ed
icine Cause Scene.

NANr1coKE, Mass, October 9-The rivalry
between a travelling vender OF quack medi-
cines and the Salvation Army here last
night nearly caused a riot The quack,
armed Wit license from the Mayor and a
flaring torch, established himself on a trian-
gular space generally used for public meet
ings, and held forth to large crowd upon
the virtues of his pills and potions. His
wares sold rapidly until the Salvation Army
marched down to the triangle with band
playing and hymn chorus in full swing.
The quack, recognizing rival attraction,
shouted his loudest, and melted his negro
banjo player to vigorous action, but the
quack's voice and the negro's music were
drowned by the sounds Of praise. Then the
pll-man stopped praising his wares. and
hurled bilingsgate at the Salvation Army.
Friends OF the latter replied in kind, and in
five minutes the crowd OF thousands was
ripe for riot. Someone notified the police;
and a moment later the quack, standing on
his license, demanded that the disturbers OF
his business be arrested.
The police seized Captain" John Lyon,
Sergeant David Williams and Sergeant
William Good and carried them OFF to jail,
amid the threats OF the crowd. The latter
were quieted, however, by the promise OF
George T. Morgan, OF the Susuueha coal
Company to bail the prisoners.

sided-no one knows what effect the NOV
ing OF the gases and the action OF the
water might have upon the lower portion.
The surface of the rock appeared to me to
be cracked and fissured. This is what was
expected. Big Niger Head still shows his
crust above the water. He may drop out
of sight tomorrow, or he may require an
other blast. Little Niger head has disap-
peared, but new rock appears above
the water. This must have been thrown
up by the explosions. 1t confirms my be-
lief that the explosion has accomplised its
purpose. Yes, leaving all these things aside,
l believe it is a success, both from scien-
tific and engineering point Of view.

RIOTOUS RAILROLDERS.
A Peaceful Day at st. Louis---T;le Cars
Running.

ST. LOUIS, October 1O.-This mornings
developments in the street car strike are
much more quiet than had been expected,
after the tumultuous proceedings OF yester-
day. There has been no rioting or trouble
during the night, although there has been a
double platoon of police in waitingall night
at the station. This morning the business
men. a committee appointed to arbitrate
between the strikers and street car presi-
dents, met at the mercantile club at 8
O'Clock. At $50 they were met by a COM
nlittee of five men from the Knights of
Labor. The Knights of Labor committee
stated that no street car strike had been
ordered until the men tried in every way
to meet the street car presidents and failed.
If the street car officials had met the men
there would have been no strike.
WILL ADHERE TO ~ HOURS.
The committee went on to say that the
men would adhere to the demand they
made. especially demanding the twelve-hour
rule and the payment OF twenty cents an
hour for extra work. They further stated
that the Knights OF Labor took no account
of the earnings OF any road, street railway
or otherwise, and that they demanded .liv-
;ao wages for employees under all circum-
showing the wages paid on all street
lines in the town; it showed men worked an
average OF 164 hours per day and that
drivers were paid an average OF $l.5O per
day and conductors $1.75, and they now
demand twelve hours for days work and
that conductors be paid SO and drivers
$1.75. The committee then took a recess.
The lines are all running at noon, most OF
the striking lines having about two-thirds
OF the usual number OF cars in operation,
each being manned by two policemen.
There has been no rioting to-day.
THE POLICE FORCE.
The Mayor and the Police Board held a
called meeting at noon to-day to swear in
500 special policemen, who were ordered to
report this morning. While the Mayor was
talking, Charles Green, President of the
Peoples Railway Company, came in and
reported that a mob had gathered at his
barn on Park avenue, and thatthe drivers
were being intimidated. Chief OF Police
Harrigan Immediately telegraphed to run
the cars through no matter how many po-
lice it required. A number Of special police
men were sworn in and sent out on duty.
