THE PACIFIC MAIL SUBSIDY.
Secretary Lamar to Demand Payment of
the Subsidy Claims.

WAsHINGToN, Feb. 17.-One of the lead.
ing officers of the interior department
says that the delay in taking up the de-
mand on the subsidized railroads, for rs
per cent Of the money they have paid to
the Pacific Mail company, is temporary.
He expresses the opinion that the demand
is already determined upon, and if the
roads resist, the case will be carried to the
courts In that event, the government
will show that the competition Of the Pa
ellie Mail company amounts to very little
ana that with the low rates prevailing
now on the transcontincntal railroads, the
steamship company could not hurt them
any. With The subsidy taken away, the
officers think that the steamers would
have llard WurN to earn their ruuuiug TX
penses. 0ome of the representatives. ul
the railroads who hclp to pay the subsidy
are quoted as saying they would he clad
to see il stopped. These -idcratinn.
are expected to influence Secretary Lamar
and the prediction is made that he will
make demand for the payment 10 the
government Of its claims ON the amount
Of subsidy already paid, to be followed by
some action intended to put an end to the
subsidy, 50 TAR as the | Mon and Central
Pacific roads are concerned
The course of the administration in re-
latiOn to the ocean mail service was sus-
tanned by the committee on possibilities
and post roads. After spiritual discus
sion of two hours, Mr.. Dockery's motion
to re-enact the law compelling American
vessels to take on board the mails of the
United States before getting clearance
papers was adopted by Il vote of II to 81
Republicans, Messrs. Wakefield of Mime
sofa and Guenther of Wisconsin-vOting
with the Democrats. The repeal Of this
law, now recommended by the committee
for re-enactment, has occasioned the de
partment some embarrassment because
of the refusal of certain lines to carry the
mails The attempt thus made to cOerce
Congress will fail.

Congressman II. G.. Burleigh and his
brother, b. w. Burleigh Of Ticonderoga,
have pushed their negotiations for the old
fort property so far as to feel sure OF sue
cess. The chief representative of the
Pell family has agreed to effect direct
sale by all the heirs, or TO bring about a
partition sale The tract consists of more
than 500 acres, and is valued at more than
$50, 900. The Addison junction station is
on the tract, the Addison railroad enters
it and the Delaware and Hudson Canal
company's road crosses it, after crossing
Ticonderoga creek and passing through
the large and expensive tunnel. 1t is di-
vided into alluvial lake shore ground, now
used for farming ground which has been
used for that purpose, but now covered
with timber, which has grown up through
a magnificent sod, and uncleared forest.
The Fort House, quiet summer resort,
standing in beautiful spot ON the shore
OF Lake Champlain, is part of the prop
erty There are many charming villa
sites scattered over its surface. The gos-
