A couple Of weeks ago Atty. Jas. P. McMah-
on started for Fargo, on important legal
business. The train was late-as usual in de-
parting from this place, and with the work
the crew had to do on tho way down, made
the train very latp getting into Ca:selton-too
late for Mr.. McMaho3 to catch his train for
Fargo, compelling him to remain in Cassclton
until next day, AID putting lin to unnecessary
expense to the extent Of several dollars. Mr..
Mcmahon put iu bill for the amount to tho
Great Northern road, and also wrote to the
chairman Of the railroad commissioners, Mr..
Geo. H. TTa'sh. He has received no answer
from the railroad company, but we give be
low the answer from Commissioner Walsh:
1t seems from thR lptter that the railway con-
pany have made promises Of better accommo-

but took their own good time as to the man

TriDlet /, evidently aware that the Pres-
dent was about TO receive distinguished citi-
zens on Monday last, made his bow to the
world few hours before the Palace Hotel
reception, while his two brothers delayed
their advent full twenty-four hours, max
ing their debut almost simultaneously with
that of the war-ship Monterey.
All three were chubby little fellows at
birth, but the youngest succumbed yester-
day forenoon, after an eighteen hours eX-
perience of the hardshps of life, while the
other two are as strong and hearty as any
babies of their age.

Condition Of the Union Pacific Civil
Service Reform Movement

BosToN, April 90 - The Union Pacific
issued its annual report to-day. 1t is not as
unfavorable as expected, the deficit for the
whole system being only S275,000. This loss,
President Dillon says, due to the large in
crease in the operating expenses, is in part
accounted for by the fact that larger
amount Of freight was moved at lower rates
in 1890 than in 1882 The mileage of the
Union Pacific was increased January l, 1890
by the addition of a mum Der of lines, bring
ing il up to 6075 miles. On this the gross
earnings were 81, 538 600, an increase Of
So, 597, 600; the net earnings were Sl2, 339 600
a decease of 81, 3S4, 600; the total income was
SIS 10000. decrease of S93000O; the total
expenditures were S13696,0O0, an increase
of $500 coo. The proceeds OF land sales sub
ject 10 this mortgage Will be sufficient
eventually to retire all the bonds and leave
a surplus 10 the company of S., $50 900. The
net decrease in the Union Pacific Company's
funded debt for the year Is S8,122,OOO. The
balance to the credit of tie income account
December 81, 1890, was S9,474,000, against
S7,714.000 the previous year. The net float
ing debt is S6,675, 900, an increase of .395, 900
over the year before.
At the Union Pacific stockholders meet
ing to-day 1t was voted to approve the COM
pany's acquisition of S13250.000 Union Pa

approve all the Directors acts and to annul
aud declare ultra wires the famous Rock
Island and ST. Paul bridge contract with the
Union Pacific, which it was declared never
has been admitted to the Board OF Directors
of the company or to the Government Di-
rectors. The guarantee of Si3, 900, 600 of the
Oregon Short Line and Utah Northern 8 per
cent bonds was approved.
Jay Gould's mortgage scheme was
adopted. IL provides that the Directors
should issue collateral trust mortgage on
any securities in the treasury to pay the
floating debt or for any other purpose The
vote did not name any specific securities or
the amount Of the mortgage This mort
gage viii be drawn for S25. 600, 900, and will
be secured by several of the best class OF

Gould will take S5,000,000 OF the bonds.
The following officers were elected; Pres
ident, Sidney Dillon; Vice-President S. ii.

Controller, Oliver W. Winki; Treasurer,

adjourniDg the meeting, President Dillon
said: During the few years | have left to

Pacific prosper, and If with my feeble voice
and health [ can make it l will. During
the past year something has been the mat
ter; | can't say exactly what. With dry
weather and poor crops, the road has been
like man cut in halves and one has been
trying to do the work of two. l think, with
the present outlook for large crops, the road
will show large earnings this year"
jay Gould, in an interview. said the pro-
posed new collateral trust 5-peT-cent mort
cages will be limited to S25, 0G0,00 but not
more than S10,000.000 will be issued now.
1t may not be necessary to make any stock
bonds with the issue, as the Union Pacific
credit is improving rapidly. "We ought 60
realize S9,0O0,000 cash from these bonds.
We cannot. under the law, mortgage the
main line to Omaha, but the new bonds will
cover the Kansas Pacific main line to Kan
5d5 lily, as well as the Kansas racine SyS-
tenn and Denver Pacific. 1t will ultimately
become first mortgage on the Kansas Pa
cifc main line. 1t will also be secured by
Union Pacific, Denver and Gulf ConsoIi-
dated 5-per-cent bonds, by Oregon Short
Line and Utah Northern Consolidated 5-per-
cent bonds and the collateral trust 5-per-
cent bonds, as we'll as by other bonds in our
assets. OF course l shall take some of the
