Willard a Pessimist on Northern Pacific

NEW YORK, Dec S--The E'dJ Street Nous says:
The impression prevails that Willard is bear
on Northern Pacific, and this creates some IN
easiness. His reported utterances in the West
during his recent trip have been used to convey
this impression. A friend Of Willard says:
whatever bearish feeling Willard may have on
Northern Pacific grows out of his views onEthe
general situation so far as it is controlled by the
silver question. His views on this subject are
very strong. and antl he sees clearly a souuder
financial policy ahead he is not prepared to bull
anything. He is not over-sanguine on Northern

The Seattle Democratic organs Port Townsend
special on Sunday denied the etory told by the
crew Of the Governor Wilmot, which led the
msltreated sailors and first and second mates of
the ship to tell the whole story of the horrors
board their ship. They say the crew were half
starved and were not given enough water TO
drink The suffering men begged in vain for q
drink of water, while the captains wife was
given tubs full to wash clothes in. No lime
juice was given the men, They had to subsst
on salt meats, which produced terrible blood
disorders. Some men had large sores The feet
of sorno vera swelled so that the shoes had TO
be cut off While in this condition the men
were hauled out of their berths by Captain
Morris and forced to work and
stand watch, and were beaten kicked
and cursed. The ship was bound for
Victoria, but fearing trouble the captain put
into an American port and kept his ship at
Port Angeles. The crew were taken off by two
hotel runners and were then branded as de-
serters by the captain and their wages with
held. The Morning Leader will publish state
ment tomorrow of these hotel runners to the
effect that they took the men off the ship Gov
ernor Wi!mot by permission of Captain Morris.
1t looks like a scheme of the captain to get rid
of the crew, who were weakened by disease and
unfit for duty. The people here very indig-
nant because of the captains cruelty to these
men, who are turned loose on the town penni-
less and helpless Two are in charitable hos

Electric Carmen Changed Around.

The motormen and conductors on the lines of
the Consolidated Electric Railway Company
have all been transferred from one route to an
other, none being left in their old accustomed
places. This is one of the periodical changes of
the employees, the object being to familiarize all
OF them with every line in the system and thus
make them competent to take car on any line
on short notice. The change has given rise to
complaint by some passengers that it incon-
venisa them, as some of the conductors do
not know the streets on their new lines and
those who do are unfamiliar with the stopping
places OF different passengers The managers,
however, CLAIM that this difficulty vsnishes in
a few days, and is Offset by the advantage of
having all the men familiar with all the lines.
