FAIL i'm santa Fe stock.

Fail i'm santa Fe stock.
A recent number of the Rail,0ay A0e
has this to say about the recent raid on
the Santa Fe stock, which it is believed
was engineered by Jay Gould If half the
stories that have been told in Wall street
OF Atchison during the past week were
trne 1t would pay the stockholders to
sink all evidence of their investment in
it twenty miles beyond Sandy Hook. In
the first place statement was made
with much circumstance of detail that
Mr.. Morrison, Chicago engineer, had
made an exhaustive report to Messrs.
Barring Bros, of London. on the property,
and what he had discovered after
a most careful examination was
OF such an unfavorable nature
that the Barings as business men would
be compelled to decline to have anything
further to do with the company. When
the story was first whispered the stock
was enjoying little boom, having ad-
vanced from 30 to 387s, at which latter.
price it was in excellent demand. But
instantly the cold blast of calumny was
felt, and its effect was to break the stock,
3 points before the close of the day.
When it was explained that the report
was not SO bad as represented there was
quite good recovery, but the break in
sugar came, and it carried Atchison down
with it. Then the pounding process was
continued, and to help the decline along
1t was given out by the bear rumor-
mongers that there was to be an
assessment on the stock of at least $40 a
share. Although promptly denied, the
price went on declining until it reached
81. Atchison is one of the most valuable
stocks on the list, for there is no CLIQUE
supporting it against the attacks of the
bears. Not satisfied with their success,
they added another rumor, this time
that the October interest would be
passed. OF course this was not true, for
although, as every one knows, the inter-
eet has not been earned, the money was
long ago provided by the great banking
interests back of the company to pay it.
This course was necessary in order to
prevent the property going into the
hands OF a receiver, something which
will not be permitted. As is
we'll known, q committee has been
at work for some weeks considering the
possibility of reducing the interest
charges within $S, 900, the figure the
company is able to pay. This commit
tee will have its plan ready for presents-
tion to the public about November Let,
and until such presentation is made all
statements as to it's probable course will
be the merest guess work. One of these
guesses is given out today. It is that
blanket mortgage for 5000, 900, 900 is to
be issued bearing per cent interest, and
that the difference between the value of
the old and new bonds for which they
are to be exchanged will be made up by
the issue of an income bond. In the
Atchison stock has recovered
a point and there is good buying at pres
ent figures.

WANT THEIR PAY,
Heavy Arrears of the l.. A. and p.
Wage.Sheeas.

Aeavy Arrears of the L.. A. and p.
WaEe-Sheets.
To those who are on "the inside" of
the Los Angeles and Pacific it is known
that there is pretty tight financial cor
ner regarding labor arrears. For many
months past it is said the company has
been unable to comply with the demands
of the payroll, and the men have been
stood eff with few dollars occasionally
Just enough to keep them going. The
arrears in each case have therefore been
mounting up at a lightning rate, and
there is now said to be due to the track
men about 500 each, and to the trainmen
individual amounts ranging from $3.50
to $500. Such q situation is q
very distressing one for the en-
ployees, for many of them have
households to sustain, and but
for good creditors they would be
in extremes. 1t was naturally imagined
that when the road went into receiver
ship everything would be cleared up,
and Mr.. Spilman let it be known that
there would be payday on the first of
the present month. His removal, how
ever, changed this arrangement, and the
men are said to be on the anxious seat
regarding the matter.

Attempted Escape.

About half-past l O'Clock yesterday
afternoon Bill Roberts, under a ninety
days. sentence for vagrancy, made an
audacious but futile attempt to escape
from the City Prison. For long time
past it has been customary for the jailers
to appoint men to help them in keeping
the interior of the jail in order. These
men are termed "trusties," and among
other privileges accorded to them is that
of going out in charge of an officer to get
the meals for the prisoners twice every
day. Roberts, who has served forty days
of his sentence, has acted in the capacity
of ''trusty" for about half that time, and
has always done good service. Yester-
day, however, he was sent out to pur-
chase some rice for the injured China.
man who was hurt at the Downey-
avenue bridge, and on his return he
stated that he had expended so
cents of the money entrusted to
him, whereas he had only brought
back 10 cents worth of rice
as the result of his expedition.
Jailer Lenox, who was on duty at the
time, noticed that Roberts had been
drinking on his return, and determined
to keep close watch upon him. Rob-
erts very soon began to exhibit nervous
restlessness, and complained about the
heat of the Jail. In few minutes time
he asked permission to get out on the
roof and open the skylight, so as to adj
NIT of better ventilation. He left the
Jail and went up the private stairway in
the Police Station, and out on to the roof,
and on concluding his mission pulled q
coat from under his vest, and putting it
on quickly, came stealthily down the
front stairs on to Second street, and
walked rapidly towards Fort street. In
the meantime, however, Jailer Lenox,
whose suspicious had been aroused, mo-
titled Officer Huston to keep watch in
front'of the Station in case Roberts did
attempt to get away and as the "trusty''
got as far as the HERALD Office he was
recaptured and taken back to the Jail.

Could Not Agree.

After being locked up all Saturday
night and up to noon yesterday, the jury
in the See case came in and stated that
an agreement was out of the question,
and were discharged. They stood as
they we're on Saturday night, eight for
acquittal and four for conviction. In the
first trial the jury stood seven for acquittal
and Ave for conviction. This last jury
was out nearly forty-eight hours, and
only one man changed his view, that one
going over from the innocent to the guilty
theory side. Sees bail was reduced by
the Court to 5000.
