SAN Francisco, CAL, October 26.-The
steamer Arabic arrived from Hong Kong
and Yokohama this afternoon. The Hong
Kong Gazette has a statement published In
the Chinese Times to the effect that the &C
ton of the Chinese minister to the United
States IN the matter of the treaty which was
recently rejected by the Chinese govern
meut, excited great luminosity against him
in Owantum, aud endeavors were made by
an angry mob to wreck the minister's
house. The Chinese Times also contains a
letter signed by the Pekin officials written
just after the news had reached China that
the United States senate had passed the
Chinese exclusion bill. Following is an ex-
tract and is taken from the letter:
cit Is an obnoxious American bill, and
other course open for China, CO8si- taut with
her dignity as a nation, than to adopt retail
iatOry measures by prohibiting the citizens
of the United States from coming to China.

and Make a Few ApPointments-EO
Change ln the OrEaniza-
zion Contemplated.
The Financial Standing ofthe Eoad-The
Eesumption OF the Dividends by the
Company was not Mentioned
The Debt Decreasing.

Boston, October 24-Atthe Union Pacific
directors meeting to-day William H. Hol-
comb was chosen director. vice Mr.. Hol-
gate resigned. Subsequently, Mr.. Holcomb
was chosen vice president. Thomas
L. Kimbau was appointed gen
eral manager, and Q. S. Nil
Ter assistant general manager. The presi-
dent stated that no changes in the organiza-
ton in the Union Pacific were contemplate
ed. Mr.. Helsomb is the present general
manager Of the Oregon railway, to which
position he was appointed On the
recommendation of the late Thomas J.
Potter. He had previously been connected
with the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy road
and later with the Chicago, Burlington &
Northern.
The question Of paying a dividend was
not raised, nor was there any discussion as
to the resumption of dividends by the CON-
pany, either now or hereafter, and the mat
ter was IN no way alluded 10. The company
now has a floating debt, for which its pro
vision in cash has not been made. Funds
to the amount Of S3,OOO,O9C haVs also
been provided to pay for q large amount Of
new equipments recently ordered, only a
portion Of which has yet been delivered.
The company has no work Of construction
now going on. The extension OF the Salina,
Lincoln q Western road, about IT'S miles,
was completed on the Goth inst. Money
needed to pay for this work has been pro
Yided.
During the four years between June so,
1884, and 1883, the surplus income Of the
system to the amount of 81, SOC, 600 has been
put into the property. About So ,OOl
tons of steel have also, during the
period named, been put into the tracks OF
the system in place OF iron. A table show
ing the condition of the fund and floating
debt Of the company, its mileage and its
debt per mile accompanies the statement
From this it appears that the entire funded
and floating debt has been reduced since
June sc, 1884, from SI55, 446, 666 &C
$l4S, 626, l59, Including ell accrued in
terests to the government, and thai
in this same time the mileage has
been increased 4, 419 to 4, 764. The debt pei
mile stands at S31, 19I against $50, 10
There has been a slight increase in the deb
since December, 1887. The increase
amounts to 81, 436, 937.

THE STEAMER ATLAS.

Steps VIII be Taken Soon 60 Raise the
Wreck-Statement of Captain Curtis.
NEW YORK, October 24.-The steamship
Alias, which was sunk by collision with a
ferry boat last evening, has settled consid-
erabIy IN the mud since she went down. Her
smoke stack, which was visible last night at
high tide, has disappeared from view this
morning. Small boats are in the vicinity of
the sunken vessel, watching for any thing of
value that may drift from her. The captain
OF the Atlas IS positive that he gave the
proper signal for the ferry boat to 60 astern
ana says the pilot of the latter must have
been drunk or crazy.
The ferry boat 10 laid up in New Jersey.
No steps have yet been taken looking to the
Merit Wrecking company viii get the con
tract and proceed to work without delay
The official statement of Captain q. f..
Curtis, of the ferry boat Central, which
sunk the Atlas, was made to-day to the
steam vessel inspectors.
He states thet he stopped on receiving
two whistles from the steamship, and gave
the signal to the engineer to back, followed
at once by jingle bell to back strongly, and
not going back, two Jingles to back extra
strong. Under these signals his boat came
into collision and sunk the steamship. de
states that the weather was very fOzgy and
he could not see the steamer until they left
the slip.
The engineer has made a report Of the
signals sent him, which is said 70 be Gs0l-
dedly at variance with the report of the cap
tain and quartermaster. The misunder-
and engineer will probably explain the col
iisiUn.

THE SIOUX AND GROWS.

Tho Threatened Conflict Between the Two
Tribes not Credited.
CHICAGO, Ill, October 24.-General VII
Iiams, adjutant general Of division Of the
Missouri, was shown a dispatch from Stand
ing Rock agency, regarding the threatened
conflict between the Grows and Sioux. He
says: Gin my Judgement the information
did not come from the military authorities
at the agency, but from the people there
who live among the Indians, whose interests
are there. My view Is that they have heard
the talk OF these Sioux and have become
alarmed over what they consider to be i'm
pending danger. The absence Of their
chief, no doubt, hsightens their fears. The
Grow Indians have never sought 70 fight
with the Sioux. and axe naturally afraid Of
them. I do not believe that they have any
hostile intentions row. Perhaps they have
started on a horse stealing expedition.
The reason disersdit tbs report IS, l
have received no intimatiOn of IS from the
military authorities Of st. Paul. They would
hear from Ft. Custer. which is only twenty
five miles from Standing Rock agency or
YanktOn. 1t would be telegraphed to me
immediately. 1t Is clear to me that the
military do not share the fears of the lead
ing Sioux, that the Crow warriors viii de-
scend upon them. 1 believe that 1t is sZ-
tremely impossible, that there have been
any movements OF the Crows, without the
military authorities here receiving some
notifications

they had been VOOd0oed. She had a doctor

AN OPINION DELIVERED.
The Examination of the New Transconti-
mental Tariff Made Public

The Examination of the New Transconti-
mental Tariff Made Public
WASHINGTON, D. c., October 26.-The
interstate commerce commission, by COM
missioner Walker. has made public the
result of its examination of the new trans
continual tariff which were put in effect Sep
TENDER !, 1888. The opinion states the diff
hculties which arose at Chicago, st. Louis
and other interior points, from which rates
are established to the Pacific coast higher
than rates from New York City, are exp ain
ed TO have arisen from series of com
modify tariffs, which named articles on
which, Low rates were made from specified
points, leaving all other articles and points,
subject to the class rate under the western
classification. In respect those special
tariffs the commission rules as follows.
Rates that aregjust and reasonable from
selected manu- featuring points, through the
entire territory east of the Missouri river
and west Of the Atlantic ssaboard are prime
facie, Just ana reasonable from all other
points IN the same territory. A tariff naming
a rate from one locality lower than the
enjOining by its neighbOr, when the circum-
stances teLders as preference of advantage
to the first, and when any shipper Is dam
aged by the enactlOn of any additional bur-
den the preference becomes undue and uu-
reasonable, unless it can be justified upon
some sound and substantial ground. Com
mon carriers ara under obligations to take
all descriptions of ordinary traffic from all
points, and 1t IS right that the rates should
be known and announced publicly in ad-
vance of the offerings of traffic.
Under the act to regulate commerce, ship
pers are not to be put in a position Of sub
servienCy to common carries, nor required
to ask for rates but are entitled to equal
and open rates at all times. Discrimina-
tons are made and undue advantages are
given by special tariffs in question, in Civ
ing different rates to places named, and
those not named, to jObbers at places
turers and to jobbers and other dealers.
The opinion further states that these con
illusions we're made known on October is,
to representatives Of the transcOntinental
lines at an interview arranged for that pur-
Pose and were at once aCceded to. The
modified arrangement suggested by the
commission as to west bound business baV-
