satisfaction was expressed by members Of
the advisory board of the Western traffic
association, when they met at the windsor
hotel this morning for their second days
session, about the way matters were drag
gi1g along. Leeds statement at yestsr-
days meeting, so far as he YVES allowed to
proceed with II, was not hat the nemoefs
of the advisory board wanted. II has not
touched upon the vital point. that Of cutting
the rate As one of the members of the
board put the matter this morning: Leeds
statement was one Of those beautiful con-
coctions of generalities that touched every
thing but the matter it ought to-"
Immediately after Gould's arrival it went
into session. The Southern Pacific had no
representative present this morning. All
other roads were represented. The board
took recess at l p. u. for lunch. Before
that hour Russell Sage and Sidney Dillon
left the meeting and went down town.
After recess Chairman Hughitt said the
board had considered the Leeds matter, and
their finding was that the Missouri Pacific
railway, through the action of its freight
traffic manager. had violated the agree
ments substantially as presented by the
commissioners. In the afternoon it was
learned that Traffic Manager Leeds Of the
Missouri Pacific had been dismissed by
Jay Gould and that he leaves for the West
tonight.
Gould, when spoken to about the matter,
would say nothing other than that he had
discharged Leeds. He referred his in
quirers to that gentleman for any further
news. Leeds, on being questioned, stated
that he only was to blame for the cutting
and that he did not do it under Goulds in
structions. He did what he thought best
for his road and just what other roads were
doing, but in different manner. He de-
clared that Gould had not offered him any
Other position and that he intended to stay
in the railroad business. At present Mr..
Leeds had no plans. He didn't know where
he was going or what his prospects were.
1t was rumored that Leeds had been offered
the position of traffic manager on the
Uuion Pacific railway, but of this he had
nothing to say.

NO RECEIVER NEEDED.
The Arkansas Pass Stockholders' Petition
Brought Up in Court.

Special to the Gazette. -
SAN ANTONIO. Tx, May THE cases
Of the original petitioners for receiver for
the san Antonio and Arkansas Pass railroad
and the many intervenorS were called to-
day in the Forty-ffth district court The
first question to be argued was the classih-
cation of the claims in their order of
priority.
The most distinguished are the Hon. Asa
Il. Willie of Galveston, who is an eX-chief
justice of the supreme court of Texas and
ex-congressman of what is now called the
Shoestring, representing the Farmers loan
and trust company: Judge Baker of the
Houston law firm of Baker, Bolts i Baker,
representing the Central trust company !:
Mr.. Miller of Leake, Sheppard i Miller of
Dallas and 7. H. Platt of New York, repre-
Senting the Armour syndicate.
When the case was called this morning,
Mr.. Baker and A W. Houston, represent
ing the Central trust company and the rail-
road, urged the court to postpone until
after May "A, as it was probable that by
that time it would be a complete reorgan-
ization of the railway, and al the claims of
all the parties settled. Mr.. A. w. Houston
read the following telegram:
NEW YORK, May 9, 1891
Houston Bros, San Antonio:
Messrs Mindrez, Winston and myself
propose leaving for Texas SATURDAY, fully
prepared to adjust and settle all claims now
before the court in accordance with the re-
organization committees plan. We hold
over 80 per cent of all securities outstand-
ing as a settlement of present claims. To
relieve the court from further trouble, We
are justified in asking postponement from
May. Mr.. I. Olcott, president of the Cen
trail trust company and chairman of the
committee, has been i'll for several weeks,
which has delayed negotiations for neces-
sary funds until this week. l shall myself
only be able to travel by Saturday, after a
three-weeks' illness. [Signed.
Q. LOTT,
President S. A and A. z Railway.
The court declined to postpone the case,
agreeing, however, to hear arguments and
reserve his decision.
If the road is reorganized there will be
nothing to decide. The claims amount to
about three million dollars and viii be ad-
justed and paid within two months and the
road taken out Of the hands Of the re-
ceiyerS

Tho Arlington Tsves sayst that the largest
tree In Snohomish County, Cal, probably
is cedar which stands little way from
the Kent's prairie and Stanwood road,
about six miles from Arlington. A party
Of nine went down from that place lately
to satisfy themselves of the truth of what
by them were regarded as exaggerated
reports Of its size. The measurement
taken shows it to be So feet, being nearly
% feet in diameter. If measured around
the roots and knotty protuberances the
tree would likely measure 80 feet. The
measurement was a. close to the body of
the tree as line could be drawn. About rs
feet from the ground the tree forks into
four immense branches. Just below the
forks is big knothole, and five of the
psrty-Jack Howard, J. II. Shannon, A.
Engberg, Ralph Norris, and Harry Patter-
son-climbed up and made an exploration
of the inside Of the tree, which Is mere
shell, though still green. They went down
some As feet in the tree, and claim that
there is standing room for at least 40 mon
there. A peculiar feature which, they
noticed was that the tree is barked on the
inside the same as on the outside.
