Mayor Monroe OF Monrovia.

Los ANGELES, April l0th.-In regard to
the reported absconding of w. \. Monroe,
the Mayor of Monroyia. Z. f. Spence,
President OF the First National Bank, gives
| the following:
mir. Monroe left here for Mexico some
time ago, for the purpose of obtaining rail-
road contracts. and his family were
fully aware Of his departure. Also, there
are no unsecured debts of importance that
he, Spenee,is aware ofand furthermore. the
statement that be purchased eleven thou
sand acres of land in connection with other
parties is altogether wrong. Mr.. Monroe
purchased from Baldwin originally ninety
| acres, at Sl25 per acre. This is part OF his
home place. and his purchases since that
time have been small. 1t is TO be regretted
that Monroe's absence has given cause for
unf.vnrahia remarks ~

IAN important deal is being considered
BY the Union and Northern Pacific roads.
1t is lease by the former Of $50 miles Of
road, the property of the latter. This &C
ton hassgrown cut of the dispute regard
ing Puget Sound traffic.
About ten years ago, before the Union
Pacific had acquired control of the Orc
gon Railway & Navigation system. the
Northern Pacific obtained lease Of the
track belonging to that system between
Walnut Junction and Portland. The
NorthernPacif has another, out cir
citous line, to the north Of this. which is
coast outlet, To run over this requires
twelve hours more time than are required
via the Union Pacific line. To. reac h
Puget Sound the Union Pacific is COM
pelledIto use $50 miles of track of the
Northern Pacific, which is that portion
between Portland AMI Olympia and Tia
coma In this way both lines have &C.
cess to the Puget Sound points: but &C.
cording to reports, neither has been sat.
isfied with them. Some time ago, the
Union Pacific which is lessee of the Nav
igation line. made proposition to the
Northern Pacific for the cancellation of
the present and the entering into of a
joint lease of both companies. This
subject was under consideration for some
time. but the request by the former was
more the latter cared to grant, in conse-
quence. the deal has fallen through.
Following this came the issue on Puget
Sound traffic, which is now an important
issue before the railway world. The &C
ton Of the Northern Pacific is regarded
as final and the collapse of the associa-
ton is consequently anticipated. In view
of this fact the Union Pacific has conclud-
ed to lease that section of the Northern
Pacific between Portland and Tacoma.
which will give them a continuous and
easy line to Puget Sound points.
This was decided upon Wednesday
and will be tho object of the visit of Vice
President HolcOmb, General Attorney
Thurston, and Messrs. Kimball and Mil
lard, to that point today.
1t is also stated that the Union Pacific
will endeavor to have the track lease of
the Northern Pacific between Wallula
junction and Portland cancelled. In
the event of the deal being consum.-
mated, that company will open up a genr
eral western department at Olympia OF
Portland on an extensive sca.e.-Ex.
