saved, unless perhaps one or two may
have been in the opening station and
struck by falling debris. No danger is

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-Senator Cullom, of
Illinois, did not lose his presidential aspirar
tions during his recent European trip, and
he has informed his Chicago friends that
he is still in tho race. He is expected in
Washington shortly to look after the post
mastership at Olney, over which there is
quite scramble. Olney is a democratic
district, hence Cnllom claims the privilege
Of naming the SUCCESSOR of Frank +. Giles
pie, who was forced to resign because tho
Farmera' alliance discovered that he was
5000 short in his accounts when county
treasurer several years ago. Mr. Gillespie is
a relative of Secretary Blaine, and at the lat
ter instance he Waa appointed postmaster
at Olnsy. The alliance raked over his past
record as comfy treasurer, and finding the
shortage above named, brought it out
against him, thus forcing him to resign.
There are four aspirants for the place,
which pnys salary of $l,7O0 per annum.
Under ordinary circumstances Senator Gull
lom'a Recommendations would have great
weight with the president in matters Of APP
pointment. He has, however, seen fit to
announce himself as candidate for the
presidential nomination, and naturally
President Harrison and those in sympathy
with his administration propose to place
only administration men on guard where
new appointments are to be made. II is
counter considerable opposition when he
attempts to induce the president to name
Mr.. Ferrymap. All of tho other candidates
claim to be loyal to the Harrison flag, and
they have entered n strong protest against
tbs selection of Cullom's man. @#&

Report Of tho Railway Commissioner ON
Their Condition.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 3-The third annual
report of Commissioner of Railroads Tay-
lor was handed to the secretary of the inte-
rior to-day. The report says Of the railroad
situation that for the past year there has
boon an increase in g.oss receipts, but Q
falling off in net earnings, owing to in
creased competition. The net earnings Of
roads indebted to the government show a
slight decrease over last year. The roads
are paying into the treasury each year al!
that the law requires them to pay. Full
detailed statements are made showing the
financial condition Of the companies, gross
and not earnings, give the requirements,
amounts paid in and total amount OF gov
ernment debt. The statements show that
the total gross receipts ct bonded roads Tor
made. were $28,O45, 900; net earnings, Sc
5000: government ntrequirenient. 81, 100000:
paid in, S1Gl6,O0o The total debts Of
bonded roads up to Dec. 81, 1850, amount
to $112,513,O0O. The increase in the debts
Of bonded roads is not owing to the failure
They pay yearly all the law requires them
to nav, The trouble is that the percent
ages required by law TO be paid do not crs-
ate sum equal to the interest the govern
ment has to pay on subsidy bonds.
Tho commissioner endorses the policy OF
the Union Pacific in aiding the construc-
ton of branch lines which shall be tribu-
tary to tho main line. He saye: Were it
not for thess feeders the Union Pacific
would yield no net earnings whatever, and
the property would not bc worth the
amount OF its first mortgage bonds" The
com M ssionsr urges very strongly. and ut
considerable length, the great necessity OF
some action being taken looking TO set
tlon,ent between bonded roads and the gov
ernment Regarding this he said: 4 have
little doubt of the ability Of the principal
bonded roads to eventually meet all
their obligations to the government, but
the sum Of these debts is apparently be-
yond ths possibility OF payment III money
at their maturity. Some plan Of refunding
must be devised in order to give them time.
The course of the government. should be
that which any practical business man
would pursue with private debtor in n
similar situation.''
The commissioner recommends the APP
point,nent OF commission of not over
three members, to be persons in govern
ment employ, to consider the situation,
confer with railroad companies. and report
their conclusions to congress. II such adj
iustment could be agreed upon as would
secure TO the government moneys due 1T,
and not seriously affect tho business or
credit of the railroads, or burden traffic and
hinder the development OF sections trihu-

accomplished Surely the magnitude of

q WASHINGTON, Got. 3.-Memberg OF the
Utah commission have filed with Secretary
Noble majority and minority reports Of tho
proceedings of the commission for the year
ended Sept. /, 1891. The majority report,
signed by Messrs. Godfrey, Robertson,
Saunders and Williams, says, in regard to
the Mormon church: ''In view of the fact
rhat the Mormon church has invariably in
the past dictated the political movements
of its adherents and presented united
front against amy and every party which
came in contact with 1t, those who now
doubt It's sincerity may we'll be excused
for doubling that the church has, through
the peoples party, strenuously opposed
every effort made whether by laws Of con-
Rress, action of the courts. or of the Utah
commission, to put down polygamy. 1t
has denounced the commission through all
these years that it has been administering
laws directed against polygamy, and kept a
united force constantly standing and ready
to oppose every effort to compel it's sub
mission to the laws of the land. When
disfranchisement stared the church
in the face, when the city and county
of Salt Lake, city of Ogden aud
county of Weber, and Park City had been
wrested from its control. and other places
were showing signs of becoming anti-Mor-
mon. then and not till then, did this change
come" The commission hope it is the be-
ginning Of better era. '"lho commission
ia glad" says the report, "to record the
steps already taken ON the road to n better
civilization, and will aid with all its power
in forwarding the good work, but cannot
recommend the withdrawal at this time of
any portion Of the safeguards thrown
around this people by the lawmakinR
power of the government, and is
most emphatic in expressing the
opinion that it would not at this
time be safe to entrust to them the RESPONSE
bilities and duties Of statehood they SO
much desire.
The minority report, which was signed
by John A. McClernand, states that poly
gamous marriages in Utah have decreased
to point of virtual CESSATION; that it
would not be just or politio to extend by
Law. the range of existing civil disabilities
indiscriminately to all Mormons. McCler-
land recommends that unreserved, unap-
proprlhted lands of the United States lying
in naturally arid states and territories
should be csded to them under proper stip-
ulations. @
