THE JOINT LEASE NOT TO BE Numbered.

PORTLAND TO THE UNION AND
NORTHERN PACIFIC PLAN NOT SERIOUS
The Joint lease Of the Oregon Railway and Navlga-
don Companys property by the Union Pacific and the
Northern Pacific Railroad Companies is not likely to
be hndered by the violent opposition which II has
aroused IN Portland. Under the laws OF oregon a
majority of the directors resident in the state.
At two recent meetings there the action Of the New
York directors, who compose the Executive Com
ultee has failed Of approval by vote OF four to
three 1t would be easy enough 10 overcome this
opposition II Il was considered necessary for two OF
the New-York directors 60 TO Oregon for that pur-
pose. The ground of the hostility of the Portland
people the belief that the Joint lease dscrminates
against the business of that port The recent meet
ngs Of the Board Of Trade and the report Of its COM
mittee were filled with these forebOdings
President Harris, of the Northern Pacific, said yes
terday: "Our friends in Portland apparently Of
he opinion that that city cannot maintain its CONNER
cal supremacy unless there two or three railroads
running into Trey to base their success on
railroad petition forgetting that the East has out
grown that notion There IL nothing III the JOINT
lease that is 10 the detriment Of Portland We have
been expecting rather that Tocoma might complain,
for II has an equal right to do but have not
heard whisper ia opposition from there. The trafdc
Will 90 to the best market, suppose and nothing IN
the lease viii prevent it,"
Another officer Of the Northern Pachn remarked:
Portland is complaining simply because II Is not
protected against all competition 1t does not nAe

he in Canada, and it is claimed that he
cannot be in his right mind. His in
come was $4,000 a year and at his
fathers death he will inherit 81 600, 900.
F. A. Cauchsis & Co., coffee and tea
importers on Fulton street, New York,
have failed. Liabilities about $40 900.
The Conway Manufacturing Company
of Milwaukee assigned with liabilities OF
$3.50 900, assets unknown. The failure
is directly due to the destruction OF the
company's extensive plant by fire.
There has been an extensive wheat
deal in Chicago, forcing prices up far
above the Liverpool market. AS a re-
suit. Williams, Black & Co. of New York
have failed. With two exceptions, the
most prominent and most influential
firm on the New York Cotton Exchange
has for years been the house of Will
liams, Black & Co. They have been
credited with the control OF millions OF
dollars.
c. Marsh & Co., brokers, of New
York, have suspended. They claim they
are not indebted on the stock exchange,
but the liabilities are believed to be
$4,000.
At Chicago, on the application Of
cashier Talman of the Traders Bank,
11lTdm hCSuGSIlCy was cpEO1AAICN ~
ceiver, in bonds of $500 900. The failure
is attributed to the illness of its presi-
dent who since died.
The banking house of Shanklin &
Austin, the oldest bank in North Mis-
souri,. has closed its doors. The cause
was the failure of the Traders Bank in
Chicago.
The Union Savings Bank at Fall River
has failed with losses of $240 900.
Joseph NJ. Paul of Hume, Allegheny
county, director of the First National
Bank of Angelica, has been indicted for
devoting the funds of the bank to his
own use and making false entries on the
books.
One of the biggest swindling schemes
worked in New York in many years has
been brought to light by the disappear
ance of William H Ingham of the brok
erage firm of w. H. Ingham & Co. The
losses to the victims of the speculative
mania will run we'll up into the thous-
ands, and may aggregate more than

THE DAILY
THURSDAY, OCTOBER Is, 1888.

THE Board of Tax Appeals sat yester-
day. There are but four appeals this
year, remarkable difference from last
years work. Three of these are Chinese
planters of bananas and kalo. The diff
ference of opinion between the owners
and the Assessor was sharp. In one
instance it was shown that property
taxed at one thousand dollars could not
be sold for one hundred and fifty. In
another the property was taxed for two
thousand, and a few months ago a half
interest was bought for thirty-fve dollars.
Some fearful discrepancy there. 1t shows
the great difficulty of a correct and fair
assessment of such uncertain values as
leaseholds.
