BUSINESS TROUBLES.
The Los Angeles Cable Road Failure
A Lexington Bank in Difficulty.

CHICAGO, Dec. 2s.--Charles B. Holmes, ex pres
ident of the Pacific Railway Company, today filed
an answer to the various banks and petitioning
firms who are creditors OF the company aud seek
TO hold the stock holders thereof liable on their
stock subscriptions. The answer denies
the allegations OF the petitioners; denies
that there were representations made
that the Pacific Railway Company and the Los
Angeles Gable Company were identical; denies
that the petitioners were induced to renew
loans or accept notes by any fraudulent scheme.
and admits that there was an intention To incor-
porate the Pacific company in Illinois to prevent
personal liability of stockholders for debts that
might be incurred by the company, but there
was no intention 10 avoid any existing debts
and obligations The answer AYERS that what
ever has been done by the company has been
with the full knowledge OF the petitioners, and
that the property and franchises Of the COM
pany, when properly managed, are sufficient TO
paw all indebtedness, its present financial en-
barrassment being due entirely 10 great unior-

SPOKANE. Dec. 2S-[special. lone of
the worst storms so far experienced this
winter occurred throughout the entire
Palouse and Cnur d. Alene country on
Saturday. Deep drifts delayed trains on
both of the railroads, and a snow plow
had to go TO Garfield to liberate a train
stalled there. A chinook set in during
the night and melted the snow rapidly,
doing much damage at Colfax through
defective roofs. The following losses were
sustained: CoIfax Club rooms, $500;
Smith Il Balaka, $500; Charles Platt,
$1,000: K. J. Shafe, $500 Charles Kennel,
$3.50. The buildings in which the goods
were damaged were all of brick, but care
lessness on the part of the owners allowed
the roofs to become leaky.
DUYsMUIR. Cal, Dec. 28.-Wet, drizzling
snow has continued since last evening,
and it is still showing very hard. The
cyclone plow was taken out today, but be-
fore it got out of the yard a steam-pipe
burst, and it is now back in the shop for
repairs. The snow is too soggy for the

over the Central Pacific route, the snow
fall not having been excessive for this sea-
son of the year, and the same may be said
of the northern and southern routes, the
only delay having been at point near
Dunsmuir, where a west-hound passenger
train was delayed by a landslide about six
hours.
PORTLAND. Dec. 2s.-[Special Land
slides at Cow Creek canyon have delayed
trains each way several hours. This after
noon small washout at New Era, the
other side of Oregon City, necessitated the
transfer of passengers and mails. The
storm has been constant and heavy all
day, extending over all the western part
of the state, and greater damage is feared
Tonight the rain is pouring in torrents
and the river is rising rapidly. There is
heavy snow all over Eastern Oregon, but
so far the Union Pacific has kept its track

The continuance of rains for twenty
four hours longer will cause the William

damage will result along the lowlands.

commander Chadwick, and lastly Charles
tramp, the ship builder. Notwithstand@e
ing this sign of official activity and the re-
ports printed of unusual work at the navy
yards, the officials of the navy department
deny that there is the least speck OF a war
cloud on the diplomatic horizon.
Assistant Secretary Soley said he had
already expressed his views as to the navy
yard. When asked where the San Fran
cisco was bound, he declined TO give a
dehnite answer, but when reminded that
the last time she went out for
gun practice" as reported by
the department. she had next been
heard OF at Valparaiso, he said the vessel
mad no orders for Chile. Naval officers
VINO should know, when asked if the
cruiser was bound for Acapulco, replied
that she would not go as far south as Mex
leo. lie also stated that the Baltimore
is now possibly north of Panama, on
her way to San Francisco. Commodore
Folger, chief of the ordnance bureau,
added to the general denial by saying that
there was no unusual activity at the naval
gun factory. Cramp also insisted that his
force was not working faster or longer
than usual on the vessels now building
at his yards. Commodore Wilson, chief
instructor. who had gone over to Phila-
deiphia to inspect the progress of naval
work on Saturday, had not found single
man of the 5000 employees at work More
over, Cramp did not believe half of his
force was at work today, as they are keep
ing the holiday season.
AT the war department neither Acting
Secretary Grant nor Major General Scho-
field, who would certainly be in position
to know, had any information of the in
tention to appoint General Miles
to the command in the event of
war with Chile, in fact the
only sign of warlike preparation visible at
the executive department consisted in the
order issued on Saturday for the i'm
mediate preparation of the new Finch
gun, just completed at the navy yard here,
for transportation to California, together
with 1900 pounds of powder and II 900
shells
CHICAGO Dec. 2S.-An officer of General
Miles staff received a telegram late last
evening from his brother, United States
soldier stationed at San Francisco, telling
him of the arrest there yesterday of two
foreigners, one Spaniard and the other a
Chilean. who had been there for the past
three weeks and acting in manner to
cause suspicion. They were arrested on a
charge of yagrancy, though they are
strongly suspected of being Chilean
spies, as several times they were
surprised while in the apparent act of a
surreptitious survey of the harbor with
compass. They have also endeavored per-
sistentlv to get information rs to the loca-
ton and plans for exploding torpedoes To-
Gated in the harbor.
