RAILROAD INTERESTS.

AN IMPORTANT NORTHWESTERN SUIT.
st. Paul, Nov. Z (SpcciaD.-Judge j. NJ. Thurston
general solicitor of the Union Pacific was in ST. Paul
to-day With John G. Bullitt, jr., counsel for the
Northern Pacific, he devoted the day to taking testt
mOny in the Of the Oregon Short Line and the
Utah and Northern against the Northern Pacific. This
Of the important railroad cases now before
the courts, and involves what might be termed a
cardinal principle of ralroading The point at issue
is the refusal Of the Northern Pacific to accept from
the Union Pacific freight In carload lots, without break
ing bulk, TO points Puget Sound reached ex-
clusively by the Northern Pacific. The case
has been in the courts for some time.
Judge Deadly, OF Oregon, some time ago
issued a preliminary injunction restraining the North
ern Pacific from refusing such business. The point
made by the Northern Pacific is that business to the
territory mentioned belongs exclusively to 1t and the
Canadian Pacific, not only because other companies
have lines reaching the Sound but also because OF the
fact that the business Of this territory was coded to
them some time ago by the Transcontinental Associa
ton, of which the Union Pacific then, and is
now, q member
The local road, before the Injunction was granted
by Judge Deadly insisted upon the local rates from
junction points with the Union Pacific, upon all busi-
ness received at these junction points This made the
cost of shipment TO Sound points so much higher
than if the shipment had been made by way OF 81.

BROOKLYN PHILHARMONIC SOCIETY.

The Brooklyn philharmonic Society began it's thirty
third yesterday with the public rehearsal for
concert which in several particulars showed the bene
fits which will to the good people Of our sister
city the East River from the rivalry which has
sprung up between the Philharmonic and Seid Societies
One change from the regime Of last year was noticeable
even before the music began. glance at the stage
showed that the band had largely been increased.
When the wind instruments had been augmented to
meet Mr. Thopass ideas of proprety in the Wagnerian
selections whish ended the entertainment, the band
numbered about 10 men. That was one respect in
which the public benefited another was the Increased
vgor care earnesness and intelligent zeal with WHICH
Mr.. Thomas conducted and the men responded to his
demands The net result entertainment OF rare
excellence though the composition Of the programme
did not invite unqualified commentator.
The list consisted of the overture, entr'acte
and the two songs composed by beethoven for
Goethe's "Egmont," Tschakowsky's symphony in II
minor Saome's Air from Massenets "Herodiade"
(sung as were the Egmont' songs by Miss De Vcre)
and some excerpts from Wagner's "Parsifal' music
The symphony was novelty in the Brooklyn schemes
Mr.. Thomas brought it forward at one of his popular
concerts in Chickerng Hall in March, 1889. 1t is
manifestly work of serious intention and there is
something interesting in the manner in which the
composer strives give it unity by recurring to the
subject Of his introduction in each Of the four move
ments. On the whole however, its extreme prolixty
and the unentertaning character Of its third move
ment waltz sadly weighted with the lead of Russian
melancholy, make it tiresome Its andane is noble
fight and rendered especially beautiful yesterday
by the way in which the first horn played his part.
Miss DE Vere's voice is overweighted trife by
the music with much feeling. Her intentions with
failure to enter at the beginning of the second line
wrecked the first stanza and she never seemed quite
must know something Of Goehe's tragedy Thoroughly
10 enter into tho spirit Of Beethoven's music

gravel near the bedrock will yield S1o,oOo'ooo
to the English stockholders, who have invested
about S75O,000 in the dam and fumes IL Is
unique scheme of divertina river-bed. as the
Feather is powerful stream, so feet wide, anu
in winter carries an immense volume of wafer.
ALI previous attempts to dam and divert I's
waters have been failures, as the Big Beho
Company, just above this, sunk $2,00O,0OO III d
tunnel, fumes and dams, only to meet with Iaii-
ure. Major Mclaughlin, manager of the uoiden
Gate mine, last week had the water all drawn
off from 5000 yards of the river-bed Inns
work took several days, and it was not unth
two days ago that the work of cleaning up pay
gravel yielded % cents per pan, ana
little deeper it panned out one dollar
Such richness at the top would indicate richness
at the bedrock far exceeding the expectations OF
the most sanguine gold mrer. Pan after pan
was worked and it was the same everywhere, GOLD
in everything and plenty of il. When the richest
of it is being worked it will simply mean $500
and upward to pan. At the present time 1t Is
hard to estimate the amount of wealth that VIII

gravel will be shovelled up into sluccs and car

use to save gold. SO rich are the gravels now
known to be that much of it will be worked by
rockers

that every man lifts ten shovcls n minute, with
500 men at work. $4,000 per minute will be
taken out in gold. This gives some idea of the
immense returns which come to these successful
river-miners. The Golden Gate is now being
worked for all it is worth in order to make the
cleanup before the winter rains set in 1t is merely
question of weather, and every clear day is
invaluable At the first sign Of q rise In the
ricks, pumps and sluices will be removed, the
waste gates opened and everything placed in rcadi
ness for the mountain floods which for several
months will send Niagara over the heavy deck
apron which shields the big dam from the tor
rents. AS the water subsidies III the
summer the work will be begun early prob
ably July, and the work Of removing the gold
will be more carefully and 81 Systematically done:
Just below this mine is the Golden Feather.
The water there will be carried in fume carved
out of solid rock. The two claims are expected to
yield 81 100000. The Big Bend claim, Just
above, is believed to be equally rich but the work
is at standstill because of huge powders en-
countered in the river.

association with actresses is improper, and, by in
situation, immoral.
