THE RECEIVERS AT WORK.

Their Policy Will be Conservative
The newly appointed receivers OF
the San Antonio and Arkansas Pass
railroad have by authority of decree
of the 45th district court taken posses
sion of all the property of the road
and have actively entered into the
discharge of their duties. This event
has formed common topic Of CONVEX
sation on the streets of both the re-
ownership and the appointees to this
position.
Messrs. Yoakum and Mcnamara
were busily engaged this morning in
entering upon their positions and the
work presses upon them so much that
they have little time to attend to any
thing else. A LIGHT reporter, how
ever, succeeded in having few mo-
ments conversation with Mr.. Yoakum
this morning.
In response to an inquiry as to the
policy of the receivership Mr. Yoa-
KUN responded. ave will devote all
our energies to the recuperation of the
road, and satisfying the claims
against it, but in all things we will
be under the direction of the court
We have no authority to enter upon
any new construction, but we
can upon the direction of the
court take up and complete such
parts of the road, as in the judgment
of the court are necessary to advance
the roads interest, and in general to
see that the interests of the road and
the public are taken care of. AS to
changes I'm the employees OF the road

resources of the country tributary to

A Queer Combine.

CINCINNATI, July 16.-A Licking
ton, KY, dispatch says: B. P.
White, wanted in Washington city
for forgery, left last evening under ar
rest for that place. The story Of his
arrest is peculiar. He had telegraph
ed to Miss Black burn, daughter of
Senator Black burn, at Versailles,
that he would be in Lexington Satur-
day evening, on tour through Ken-
lucky. He sent similar telegram to
the senator's secretary, Mr.. Rogers.
In the mean time the Lexington chief
of police was directed from Washing
ton to arrest White on his arrival.
When the train reached Lexipg-
ton White was dressed as described.
in Washington. The dispatch was
recognized by Miss Black burn, who
had driven in from Versailles, and by
Mr.. Rop srs. But when the chief of
police asked him if he was the White
of Washington he answered quickly,
to the amazement of Mr.. Rogers and
Miss Black burn: "No, my name Is
Francis White, from New York"
This misled the arresting of the
officer and he allowed White
to go with his friends to hotel.
In 1.-THE meantime the conductor
satisfied the chief of police that
this was the man he wanted, but
White had excused himself to his
friends and flown. He walked to
Midway, sleeping that night under a
tree, but he was finally caught at
Frankfort in an express car, where he
was personating an emplOye of the
express company, He admitted he
had forged a check for $1,000. He said
his name was Morgan johnson, from
Boston.

be of help in bringing some of the I'M
recovered bodies to the surface. Coun-
try people who drove in from all
