THE PACIFIC RAILWAYS.

Their Obligations to the United States and the
Ease with Which They May Be Evaded.
Special to the indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, May 5.-There has lately been
q great deal of criticism growing out of the action
of the Pacific railroads committee of the House
In reporting bill for the settlement of the &C.
counts of the Pacific railroads with the United
States The criticisms however, all bear the
ear marks of one hand, and 1t seems evident
Mat some master mind controls the editorial
columns Of most of the newspapers which have
given this subject attention. The point in the
bill which calls forth the greatest adverse COM
ment is the clause which provides that the Pres
hent may, at his discretion. at any time that he
thinks necessary to protect the interest OF the
United States order the Secretary of the Treas
nry to take up the first mortgage bonds, which
are prior lien on the railroad companies prop
srty. 1t seems to be forgotten that it is the
easiest thing In the world for these companies to
hefraud the United States out Of every dollar of
Indebtedness by simply defaulting in
che interest on these Arst mortgage
bonds, and thereby creating the power
Of the holders to sell the roads and leave the
United States in the lurch. Unless some action
is taken now there will be great deal of howl
Ing eleven years hence, when the United States
bonds fall due, as there is at present no method
possible by which the United States can be pro-
tected. In this connection curious fact in
figures was pointed out by Representative
Outhwaite, OF Ohio. who is q member of the
Pacific railroads committee The committee
were unanimous in agreeing that some method
Of extension must be adopted If the United
States is ever to recover the monies guaranteed.
The only difference of opinion was as to the
time which should be allowed. The periods
proposed ranged from fifty to one hundred years,
when Mr. Cultivate pointed out that any pro-
posal looking TO an extension beyond the period
of seventy five years would mean loss of
the principal TO the United States. This
would seem strange, and yet it can
be easily demonstrated il we will take
D moot case. For instance, q loan OF 81 500 to
run seventy. five years, at 3 per cent interest,
would amount to 81, 900. principal and interest.
in round figures. If this amount was divided up
Into seventy five equal payments, the amount to
De paid each year would be about $38 so. The
interest on $l,500 at 3 per cent, would amount
TO S45 year. II. therefore, the bonds Of the Pa
cifc railroads should be extended for seventy
i've or more years. at an annual interest Of
per cent, and the amount found to be due divided
PIP into seventy-fve or more payments, the
United States would receive less than the inter-
est on the debt each year. If seventy years is
taken as the time OF the extension, the compa-
mics will pay the interest each year and por-
tion Of the principal. which would begin at about
1920. 900 year, and gradually increase az the
proportion Of che interest decreased

CRUSHED TO DEATH.
Four Men Killed and Number Of Others
Injured by the Fall of a Building.

ST.. PAUL, Mimi. May 5.-Shortly after 2
o'clock this afternoon one of the walls of the
Bracket Block, in Minneapolis, fvestory
building. to which an addition was being made.
fell out and crashed into the basement. which
had been excavated for the new portion, bury
Ing dozen workmen beneath the ruins. Eleven
have been taken out, four of whom are dead, and
the others more or less seriously injured. OF
the dead, at this hour but two have been identi-
fed. Connolly, unmarried. and John Janisch,
who had wife and six children. The fire and
police alarms brought force of rescuers to the
scene, and the work of rescue was prosecuted
under the direction Of Mayor Ames. Besides
the killed mentioned above, the others in the
ruins are
S. Arverson, j. Carlson, J. Polum, - Eyern,
s. Erickson, o. Wickstrund, Ole Erickson, A
Jufrene, G. Blair and - Boswell or these
the two others killed have not been identified
Most of the injured will recover.
The building was located on the northeast
corner OF Second street and First avenue, South.
1t was composed of retaining walls, with floors
supported by two parallel rows Of heavy wooden
columns resting upon large square timbers run
ming from the front to the rear of the building
Near this wood work was the weak spot There
were no cross ties and when the inner wall was
removed the weight Of the accumulated mate
rial on the floors caused them to sag outward
ward until they literally pulled cut and toppled
over into the adjoining hole. F. Dorh, archi-
tect, says he thinks the fall was caused by work
men digging under one of the lines of the wooden
suuports which were nut in as fast as the wall
was taken out.
