Richmond and West Point Terminal
Road to be ReorGanized.
New YORK, Jan. IA local paper to-
night prints the main facts regarding q
railway scheme Of unprecedented magni-
tude, the details of which win not be
made public for some time. 1t is the
financial and physical reorganization of
the Richmond and West Point Terminal
Railway and Warehouse Company, as ar
ranged by the Olcott Reorganization
Committee.
Briefly stated new company will be
formed with a charter empowering it to
act as general proprietary company like
the present terminal company, but also
with power to operate and manage it's
own lines. 1t will issue securities in eX-
change for those Of the present companies
composing a terminal system.
Terminal securities as representing the
control of subordinate roads will also be
exchanged. 1t is estimated that a COM
plete exchange can be effected by the is
Suance by the new company of SlS9, 000,-
900 bonds and Sl30,000,0 coo in stock. These
figures at first seem staggering, but
when the capitalization is adjusted to the
mileage it will be seen that the rate is
less than $4,000 mile.
No other section of the country can
show similar proportion. as the figures
vary from Sl2l 900 per mile in the mid
die States to SIS, coo in the northwestern
States. 1t is believed the scheme will 90
through with as little friction as can be
expected of plan of such magnitude.

a crazy mar to-dsy. This morning. when
he first entered his chambers, a strange
man approached the Judge Familiarity,
asking if some one, giving q name the
Judge does not remember, had arrived.
Being told no, he left. About 3 O'Clock
this afternoon the man entered Judge
Gresham's room again, and told him the
Marshal had that money locked up, and
would not give it 10 him.
mot yet realizing that the man was
out of his mind,' said the Judge, Il
asked him what money he referred TO-
and he said the 5000 Jay Gould paid him.
l then observed wild expression on mis-
countenance, and told him to go with me
to the Marshal, but he declined, saving
anarchists We're after him, and wanted TO
XIII him. | then told him to take a seat.
and went to the Marsha's office, and told
the deputies to inform the proper authori-
ties OF the condition OF the poor man, so
he might be cared for.
deputy Hayes returned with me, and
when we entered the room the presence
OF the deputy excited the man, and he de-
clined to go with Hayes. | directed the
deputy TO leave the room for q time,
which he did. The man then closed the
door, and went to door leading from the
chambers to the courtroom and locked it.
L told him to sit down. He did so. He
again said he was in danger from an

lars, and claimed my protection. | as
sured him that he should not be hurt.
After little he again became quiet. but
in the meantime some of the deputies
had sent for the police, and they were
outside. The man in some way learned
of their presence, and again became ex-
cited. l had him take seat again, and
told him [ must go soon. He requested
that protect him until the military ar
rived. | told him he had better demand
protection of the Marshal until the ar
rival of the soldiers, which he said he
would do. l went out and requested
Marshal Hitchcock to go to the room. He

Dies MONIES Ia.), Jan. 12.-The House
this afternoon effected a permanent
organization, electing W. O. Mitchell
Speaker, as well as other Republican
caucus nominees for minor offices. The
Governors message was received and
placed on file.
In his message Governor Boies speaks
of the prosperity the State enjoys; recon-
mends liberal appropriations for State
institutions and the Worlds Fair, and
suggests laws looking to the maintenance
OF rights OF workingmen and the better
ment of their condition be enacted. No
mention is made of prohibition.
In the Senate Engle independent
voted for the Republican caucus nomi-
nees, and the Democrats refused to vote
Engle'S vote gave the Republicans lust
half of the votes, and Lieutenant-Gover
nor POyneer declared that there was no
constitutional quorum voting, and there
fore no election. The Senate adjourned
without effecting an organization.
1t is asserted this evening that some
Republicans are in favor OF counting the
Democratic Senators tomorrow if they
are in the chamber, whether they vote or
not, thus obtaining quorum. Other re-
ports are that more conservative men,
bers are against such a plan, saying the
Democrats have a majority of the two
parties and are entitled to the minor
offices; furthermore, they propose to
break the deadlock and get to work at
once.

REVENUE MARINE SERVICE.
DISCUSSION IN THE SENATE OVER
DOLPH'S BILL.
Measure Finally Passed for the Con
struction of Two New Cruisers
for the Pacific Coast.
Special to the REcoRD-UN1oN.

special 10 the hECORD-UNTON.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE feature OF
to-day's Senate proceedings was the de-
bate on the Senate bill appropriating $685.
600 for the construction of two revenue
cutters of the first class for service on the
Pacific Coast, one of them at least of 45O
tons displacement, and the other not less
than 600 tons, and each of them so con
structed and equipped as to secure speed
of fifteen knots per hour.
The original BILL as reported from the
Commerce Committee by Senator Dolph,
appropriated only $4,000. 1t was
amended in the Senate so as to raise the
amount to S325, 600. Senator Allen of
Washington and Senator Dolph ex-
planned the merits of the bill going into
detail concerning opium and Chinese
smuggling, and the urgent need Of addi-
tional swift cruisers to patrol the Pacific
Coast.
Cockerell of Missouri, who bears the
same relation to the Senate that Holman
does to the House. opposed the bill in a
rasping speech, in which he declared that
the revenue marine would no doubt soon
be transferred to the Navy Department.
and that money spent at this time for
revenue cutters would only be wasted.
Mcpherson of New Jersey followed in
the same strain. lie declared that the
revenue service should be under the
Navy Department, and that no doubt it
would be by Act OF Congress soon. In
this case the revenue cutters would be of
an entirely different pattern from those
now employed. They would have to be
of a character to withstand the attacks of
hostile war-boats, and the light-draught
vessels proposed by the bill before the
Senate would be useless in naval service.
Senator Frye of Maine. Chairman of
the Commerce Committee, and who was
for long while Chairman of the Naval
Committee, declared that the armored
gunboat of heavy draught would never
do for revenue service. Vessels for this
class of work must be very swift and of
light draught, capable of turning sbarp
corners and of running over shoals. etc.,
in pursuit of vessels engaged in contra
band trade. The armored gunboat for
this work would be an absurdity. he de-
clared. He contended that even if the
revenue marine should be transferred to
the Naval Department, revenue cutters
need not be any better protected than
they are now.
Mitchell and Dolph spoke in support
of Frye's statement.
Senator SquireS of Washington
offered an amendment providing that the
speed of the two vessels should be eigh-
teen knots an hour instead of fifteen.
The opposition to Squires' amendment
was so pronounced that rather than jeop-
ardize the bill he withdrew his amend
ment, and the bill was then passed.
SqUires says that he intends to make
an attempt to have his amendment
adopted on the House side and acceded
TO by committee of conference between
the two Houses.

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 1.-THE street-car
strike situation is growing ominous. The
company has declared its intention of
running ears to-day and asked the Board
of Public Safety for protection. The
strikers say they will not allow a wheel
to turn. This morning salt car started
over College-avenue line with an escort of
police. A crowd of strikers attempted to
stop it, and row only was quelled by
the arrest of eight strikers. The strikers
Immediately telephoned 500 employees of
the Atlas Engine Works for assistance.
The strikers who were arrested were
afterward bailed out.
The situation tonight is practically I'M
changed. This afternoon the Brother
hood made a proposition of arbitration,
but President Frenzle promptly declined.
An attempt was made to run another car
on College avenue later this afternoon,
which resulted in slight disturbance
and the arrest of about a dozen strikers,
who were Immediately bailed ont by
