A Strange Proceeding.

SpeCihl DlspaLCu 10 IL 1SltdeEs
OMAHA. Neb.. March l9.-The Bee
saws it has it on the most reliable author
ity that when s.. Ii. III. Clark was general
manager of the Union Pacific 400 new
freight cars and 200 fat cars were received
bearing the Union Pacific name. This
was about eight years ago. These cars
were used by the Union Pacific but a short
time and when the Oregon Short Line. a
road at that time under a separate corpo-
ration and management from the Union
Pacific, opened up these cars were
brought TO the shops in this city and re-
painted. The Union Pacific brand was
wiped out and replaced by Oregon
Short Line and the cars placed in the
service of the Oregon Short Line where
they remain at present.
The paper further asserts that nearly
all the first-class engines owned by the
Union Pacific company proper are being
overhauled and put in service on the pro-
p~rietary lines. At the present time itsays
ten standard locomotives are in the shops
al lHlS pldCc Ludb nave TeCCnliS Dttu
received by the Union Pacific and are
being repaired and will fly u of Omaha
with Oregon Short Line and Colorado
Central branded upon them. 1t states
further that no mark indicates a lease of
the rolling stock.
A reporter instituted a diligent inquiry
among the Union Pacific officials, but
none seemed inclined to speak on the
subject, but the propounding of the in
quiry as to why their work was done in
this way appeared to have a somewhat
startling effect.
Several employees in the shops were
questioned, and while they were reticent
concerning the matter, they admitted that
a large number of engines and cars had
been handled as above stated, but as to
the reason for it they manifested their ig-
no-ance They stated that numerous box
cars had been brought to the shops almost
fresh from the paint shops and repainted
and the name of the company marked out
and that of SOM other painted on the car.
Whether. says the Bee, this is a plan
devised by certain officials OF the Union
Pacific who are stockholders in the pro-
prictary lines to provide tkeir road with
rolling stock at the expense of the Union
Pacific stockholders, or whether it is a
scheme TO divest the Union Pacific of its
valuable rolling stock in case the road
passes into the hands of a receiver, is
what is regarded as an open problem.

ANOTHER PosTPoNEMRNT.
No Sale of the Steamers Advance and
Progress esterday.

NO sale OF LQe SU06Ln9rS AoVdnC6 anu
Progress Yesterday.
The receivers sale of the steamers Ad-
vance and Progress, which was to have
come off yesterday at Augusta, was post
poned by order of Judge Roney of the
superior court to Tuesday. May Z and there
is much Indignation among the crews of the
two boats, most of whom live in this CT ty,
some of whom, it is claimed, were un-
able to get pay for back wages due them
and had to go to the mayor and get passes
to bring them home.
The receiver of the Augusta Steamboat
Company when he discharged the crews, so
some of the men say, told them they would
have to get their money the best way they
could. During the fifteen days the men
were at Augusta their rations were cut off
and they had to board them selves. In pre-
senting their claims they included theil
board which was rejected as being ex-
cessive.
The men, when they came home, ibeled
the steamers in the United States ccmmis-
sioner's court, Commissioner Lamar allow
ing the seamen for the wages and board,
but as the property of the Augusta Steam
boat company was in the hands of a re-
ceiver nothing has come of the finding.
The boats were to have been sold March
5, and the sale was postponed until yester-
day. and now a delay of another month in
the sale will keep the seamen out of their
wages that much longer. Some Of the men
think that the policy is to starve them out
and compromise the claims, and already
they have been rendered their wages, with
out any allowance for board. This they re-
jected.
1t is reported that a well-known river
man of this city visited Augusta with a
view to purchasing one Of the boats, but
had to return without a purchase.
