SAN Francisco, July 6th.-Among well
informed officials at Fourth and Townsend
streets, the belief in Huntington's refusal
to build the coast road is well nigh uni.
versal. A high official of the Southern
Pacific Company, in answer to question
concerning the closing of the gap between
Santa Margarita and Ellwood, to-day said:
why, of course the road will be built
That was decided by Mr.. Huntington some
time ago. 1t is on the books, and if the
Southern Pacific Company shall continue
to build and operate railroads there can be
no doubt OF its construction"
will the matter be expedited or in any
way influenced by the action of the Con.
vention which recently met at San Jose ?''
II do not believe the action of this meet
ing or any other meeting which may be
held in the future for a similar purpose
will have any effect of hurrying the con.
struction OF the road in question. When
Mr.. Huntington is convinced that the
venture will be success financially, then
and not until then, will this road be built
IF the conditions of Cooper's contrac,
are carried out, would not the financial
success of the scheme be an assured fact
In other words, would not the Southern
Pacific Company be amply secured and
insured against loss ?"
mo; the sum of $315, 900 has been Offered
the company, together with depot facilities
and rights of way. This seems to person
on the outside as very large sum Of
money-a magnificent gift. But how does
1t compare with the cost of construction
which is estimated at $5OOO,OOO? Though
the amount was twice that offered, do no
believe Mr.. Huntington would accept it
He has often expressed himself as opposed
to accepting subsidies. That is not rail
reading. and is sure to entangle the com
pany receiving the subsidy in. an endles:
controversy and difficulty. If the people
contribute one dollar toward the construc
ton of road, they think they own it, anG
are always interfering in its operation"

Measures Which They will Probably
Discuss This Week.
WASHINGTON, July 6th.-Frye's shipping
bills are the unfinished business of the
Senate calendar for tomorrow, and he
hopes TO have them disposed of without
further delay. He will then ask to have
the river and harbor bill taken up. This
bill, with the amendment which the Com
mttee on Commerce has authorized FRYE
to otier, carries an appropriation OF about
S26 10000 and he says il is the best bill
of the kind ever prepared
morrill,, Chairman of the Finance Com
mlttee, Will endeavor to have the tariff bill
made the order of business after the shin
ping bills are out of the way The tariff
bill, ii is understood, will be in charge of
Senator Aldrich. If the river and harbor
bill gets the right of way II is then more
than probable that the tariff debate will
not be begun in earnest until next week. as
there are three appropriation bills TO come
before the Senate this week, one OF which
the sundry civil, is likely to precipitate a
debate of some length.
Among its provisions as il passed the
House is an approprition of $40 900 for
geological and irrigation surveys, TO be ex-
pended under the direction of Director
Powell, and this will be antagonized by
Stewart and possibly by other Western
Senators, who want the irrigation survey
to be conducted by the Agricultural De-
partment. The other two appropriation
bills are the Indian and Consular and
diplomatic.
The report of the Conference Committee
on the silver bill, which is privileged
matter, is likely to be presented before the
| close OF the week, and it will probably
give rise to debate of some length.
A caucus OF Republican Senators is ex-
pected this week to decide whether or not
TO take up the election bill, which will
probably be received from the House to-
morrow, at this session.
The proceedings in the House promise
TO be comparatively uninteresting. Proba-
bly, the general deficiency bill, the last of
the appropriation bills, will be acted upon
before the week is ended. The Election
Committee is desirous of securing consid-
Grafton for two contested election cases

North YAKIMA (Wash.) July 6th.-The
East-bound Northern Pacific freight train
was boarded at this place yesterday by two
men who had noticed the conductor get his
time check cashed. When the train was
fifteen miles from here the conductor asked
the men for their tickets. They stated that
they were railroad men, and placing their
hands into their breast pockets as if to get
their credentials drew pistols. and covering
the conductor and brakeman, relieved
them of their combined capital of $12O.
When the train slowed up at crossing
they cropped off and took to the brush.
AS soon as the news reached this city
Sheriff Lesh and a large posse started out
and found the robbers in an Indian camp
about two miles from Simcoe Station.
Deputy Sheriff Simmons covered the men
with Winchester, and they were quickly
secured. The money was found in their
possession. The captors earn a reward of
$3.50, which was offered for the apprehep-
sion of highwaymen.

Should be Made.
VIcKsBURG (Miss.), July 6th-In letter
from Senator George formulating his plan
for revising the Constitution of Mississippi,
he indicates among the cardinal principles
that must govern the Constitutional Con-
vention the following: Good government
in Mississippi can come only from pre-
dominance of influence and political power
in the white race; that such predominance
should be formed on the essential truth of
the equality and voting power Of all who
are entitled to suffrage; that the civil and
political rights of the colored race, as guar
anteed by the Constitution of the United
States, are not to be denied or abridged, but
protected. Their incapacity must be ac-
knowledged again, to the end that their
rights and the rights of the other race may
be prQtected y

BANGOR tMaine), July 6th.-The ordi-
narily peaceful town of Orono, eight miles
above this city, continued celebrating yes
terday by having regular Western fight,
and throwing the whole town into an up-
roar. A riot occurred at the Main Central
Depot, which company had been trying to
get rid OF the presence of set of town
loafers who have been accustomed to make
the place their rendezvous.
10 day SIX or seven roughs more or less
under the influence of liquor, entered the
station, and, breaking in the door of the
ticket office, grappled with station agent
Neal, who was sitting at his desk.
The sudden and furious onslaught took
him from his feet, and they commenced
kicking him and dragging him toward
the door. He regained his footing, caught
up short piece of gas pipe lying in the
waiting room and went at his assailants.
He laid two of them out before help came
IN. the person of baggage master Charles
Buzzell, who rushed into the waiting room
with revolver in one hand and heavy
club IN the other. Just as he arrived
three or four more roughs came in by an
other door,
The two railroad men went at the
crowd, and wicked fight followed. The
superior numbers of roughs told, however,
at once on Buzzell, and he opened fire with
his revolver, but aimed high, hoping that
the smell of gunpowder would Gisperse
them. At the first shot of his revolver,
three or four revolvers were drawn on the
other side and Buzzell received probably
fatal wounds
At the hight of the fight train rolled
into the station and the men on board

When the neighbors tried to arrest Cum-

DISCUSSING Co-EDUCATIoN.
Proceedings of the National Council ,
Education.


ST. PAUL. July 6th.-At Yesterdays
session of the National Council of Educa-
ton the report of the Committee on the
Education of Girls was taken up. Chair.
man John Hancock, of Ohio, gave report
on the subject of the co-educatlon of the
sexes. Mr.. Hancock is strong believer
in CO education, and he advanced many
reasons for maintaining his position.
The report was followed by lively and
interesting discussion, in which some diff
ference of opinion was expressed. E. E.
White, of Ohio, was fearful that CO educa-
ton might often result in serious inlpro-
priety on the part of students.
The most prominent feature of the dis
cussion was the reply of Miss Conway, OF
Memphis, Tenn, who has private school.
She argued that exclusive education was
best, as in such colleges it was easier to
preserve and foster that essence which we
call manliness.
Mr.. Hancock, in his closing remarks,
said the ordinary rules which govern soci-
ETY. will govern boys and girls in schools.
The Oberlin College was cited.
AT the afternoon session the report was
on the subject, 1.-The Professional Function
OF Polytechnic Schools" 1t was made by
Langdon S. Thompson.
