cison in the mandamus case brought by

Union Pacific Bonds.

WASHINGTON, February 15lh.-Windom
this afternoon, in reply to bis request, re-

ion on the application OF the Union Pacific
Railroad that the Government . per cent.
bonds invested in the sinking found OF said
road be sold and the proceeds invested in
the first mortgage bonds OF Que Of the roads
mentioned in the Act of March 3, 1887.
The question in doubt was authority for
such sale of bonds by the Secretary and
the investment of the proceeds as sug-
gested.
The Attorney General, in his opinion, re-
views the whole question and sums up as
follows: "The Secretary has discretion to
invest the sinking funds in question in
first mortgage bonds OF any Of the railroad
companies mentioned in said Act as hav-
ing received aid from the Government in
bonds"
Window has not yet decided whst action
he will take, but will probably make this
