10 the Public Domsin-Ciroumstanc OF

= WASHINGTON, CITY, Noy. 2.-Commis-

which, II not reverssd, will restore to the
public domain nearly 1900 square miles, or
4 s64, 900 acres, of land, equal to the whole
state Of Massachusetts,. now claimed by the
Atlantic s. Pacific Railroad company. The
company fled with the secretary Of

fssssH the commissioner says the
questions are raised: Was the company

stats reached the Pacifici Did congress in
tsnd that the company should select San
Francisco as the western terminus of ths
-roadf The first question he at once decided
In the negative. - .--4-----.
On the second question Commissioner
Sparks says congress made a land grant to
the Southern Pacific: from APPOINT near the
western boundary of the state Of Calitor-
MIA, where it crossed the Atlantic &
Pacific road to San Francisco. If con-
gress meant the Atlantic & Pacific road
lhould go to San Francisco it made
two grants to two corporations in the aid of
two railroads to be constructed between the
same two points in California, and this the
commissioner deems improbable. He there
fore decides that when the railway once
reached the Pacific at San Buena Vent ura
it exhausted its rights.

An Unruly Engine.

An accident occurred on the Rome g.
Dalton road, near Selma, Ga, the other
day, which will confirm old engineers In
belief that their big machines are
endowed with intelligence. The Atlanta
Constitution tells the story thus: An
engineer was running a switch engine,
when he encountered a freight train.
The men sprang from the cabs, and the
engines went at each other. No serious
damage was done, but the switch engines
lever was reversed, and as soon as she
steadied she began to back. Being light,
she moved off quickly, before the enein.
Ger could get on, and In a moment the
astonished man of the throttle saw his
machine whizzlng out of sight In the di-
rection of Selma. Six miles out an an
gineer of q north-bound freight saw the
runaway engine bearing down on him
flying down q steep grade with a foil
head of steam on and making about fifty
miles an hour. He reversed and sprang
from his engine, saving his life, but re-
ceiving some painful bruises. Thus
three engines were damaged. The en-
gineer of the switch engine was dunn
founded by the freak of his engine.

there is no crookery in the house which
she can break, and no friendly policeman
with whom abe can share the cold NUT

keep a servant girl as it Is to

Railroad Autocracy.

Springfield Republican.
The lease of the Central Pacific rail-
road to a new credit company called the
Southern Pacific, chartered by the state
of Kentucky, is an extraordinary in
stance Of the autocralic management of
railroad properties. Here is e lease
overnight by the managers of a great
railroad system, sustaining $3.50, 600, 900
of stock and debt, and operating
thousands of miles of railroad. The
Central Pacific i, the western half of the
frat and original Pacific railroad, cores
ponding to the Union Pacific or eastern
half. 1t was built by the California men,
Huntington, Stanford and Crocker, who
pushed its construction with great en-
ergy, but resped enough from the gov
ernment subsidy practically to pay its
cost, notwithstanding the property paid
for some years 6 per cent upon $G0, 900, =
600 of capita! stock, mostly water. These
dividends have been suspended the past
year, although the read has earned some
millions net, on the ground that floating
debt and the dues to the government
required attention. The same
capitalists built the Southern
Pacific railroad in California, extending 1t
across the continent to meet the Texas
Pacific. Now they suddenly float a vast
credit company, called the Southern Pa
cifc, like the Oregon Transcontinental,
and transfer to 1t the Central Pacific and
Southern Pacific and their collateral
lines, In all eleven companies. The les
see pays In addition to the running ex-
penses government dues, and fixed
charges at least 81, 200, COO a year to the
Central Pacific, which Is considerably less
than it earned net the past year.
or courde Stanford, Huntington and
Croker all regard the lease as "a good
thing, and answer all questions with the
statement that they are the largest hold

assurance has, however, become some

A "Reminiscences of Appomattox.

SAT the surrender of Lee" said a sur
geon of this city in the hearing of 8 re-
porter a day or two ago, writes an Erie,
Pa, correspondent to the Philadelphia
Times, 81 was serving as medical direc-
tor of the second division of the Twenty
fifth army corps. After the surrender
the division was ordered to Join the re.
msinder of the corps near Petersburg,
and we left Appomsttox court house on
the 18th of April, following the South
Side railroad. The general commanding
directed mo to take an orderly and pro-
coed to Prospect station and there select
a camping ground for the division, and
also a place to pitch cur headquarter
tents. / proceeded as directed, and
after selecting a suitable camping ground
crossed the tields to o large white house
near the station. AS l rode up to the
gate a most venerable ahd noble looking
gentleman of probably 60 years, came to
the front gate, and | asked him If he
would have any objection to our pitching

should be very glad to have you do it, as
1t will be a protection against the van
dalism of the ~stragglers of the army He
asked me to come in, but / told him |

Finding him to be a Methodist minister
and a most polished gentleman, / became
interested In him, and we at once began
to discuss the unfortunate division of the
church in 1874, and then | switched off
on the war.
HE took the extreme southern view,
whilst took as extreme a view of the
other side, but the discussion was friend
ly, and exceedingly pleasant to me. |
found that he really felt that the south
had been badly treated by the election of
Lincoln and that secession was In his
view an act of self preservation. After
the discussion had continued for about
half an hour he said: Il take 1t that the
war is now over, 80 what will your gov
eminent do with Gen. Lee?' and added,
Il suppose Mr.. Lincoln will follow him
with all the vindictiveness Of his ma
ture.'
81 replied: IF he gets no punishment
only that which originates from the vim
dic%tiVeness OF Mr. Lincoln's nature, 1t
will not kill him, as Mr.. Lincoln Is one
OF the kindest hearted men born into
this world He gave me a lok full of
skepticlsm and asked me what l meant.
l told him that there was much more
danger of Mr.. Lincoln offending the
north by his leniency than to punish out
of revenge, am. then told him who and
what Mr.. Lincoln was, dwelling especi-
ally on the merciful side Of his nature.
He replied: IF that is Mr.. Lincoln, the
president Of the United States, he Is not
the Lincoln described to us by our
papers. He Is not the man of whom we
have read and of whom we have heard.
The Lincoln described to us is q man of
blood and full of venom,
who cares neither for the lives
nor the rights of the people, and from
whom we have no mercy to expect. This
is the demon whom our people nave been
fighting these four years. After thus
delivering himself. he said in a subdued
tone: If you have properly described
MIR. Lincoln to me, then | have been
most shamefnlly deceived and have as
shamefully mis- judged him; but said he,

the corporations they assume to manage.
1t remains to be seen whether this new
arrangement will discover the relations
of the Union Pacific and Central Pacific
at Ogden. The former would have an
outlet to the coast through Oregon, and
round by SEQ. The Central Pacific
would control absolutely every rail- in
California and every landward approach
to San Francisco. The Central Pacific
has no natural geological relations with
the Southern Pacific, and will have no
valuable connection to the east unless it
acquires one across Utah to Denver,
where II might unite with the latest ri.
walls to the Union Pacific. The only road
now connecting Salt Lake and Denver is
the Denver and Rio Grsnde, narrow
gauge. The advantages of the new ar
rsngement for the Central Pacific, either
in operation or competition, srs not ap.
parent. To be sure, the lease places un-
der one management the Southern Pa.
olic line from the Cult ports, and ever
from Norfolk, Va to San Francisco,
but even the California syndicate can
scarcely afford to let the Central Pacific
lie without business, In order to carry
freight much farther around. The
Southern Pacific company, by the way,
Is said to have 500, 00O, 600, but that is
easily made up on paper by adding to-
the stockholders holdings of
and bonds.

Their dimensions will be 500 feet In

far as comfort and decorations were con-

constructed would be something that had
not been seen here before. The steam
