" Siberia" at Cordray's,

Holiday amusements will be ushered in
at Cordray's tonight with production of
BARLEY Campbeh's spectacular drama,
Siberia" The management has pro-
vided a treat of superb excellence and
merit for patrons of the house, and there
is no doubt that they will signify their ap-
probation by filling the theater nightly
during the run Of Siberia Every Access
sorry necessary to an artistic production
has been provided down to the smallest
details. The display of costumes, illustra-
tive of Russian dress in all ranks. will in
itself be instructive and entertaining. The
coryphees will be resplendently attired,
and their graceful movements, as they
execute difficult figures with dextrous
ease, will afford pleasant entertainment.
The serpentine dance of Miss Julie Kings
ley will be an important feature Of the fete
specialties, as will the appearance of Miss
Laura Ashby in dazzling feats of jugglery
and equipoising. Mr.. Coote also will give
his inimitable exhibition of the Carmen
cita dance.
The auditorium bill will be commenced
tonight at us sharp. and the theater will
be opened at Sis. These hours will be OBJ
served during the run of Siberia"

SEEKING FOR A PASS.
Burlington Engineers at Work
in the Cascades.
PROBABLE ROUTE FROM HELENA
More Slides Delay Great Northern Trains
Need OF More Car Building
Works In the Country.

The statements that the Burlington
company Is preparing to extend its lines
TO the Sound is confirmed by the fact that
it has had five parties of engineers in the
Cascade mountains within the last few
weeks, and they are probably still there
unless they have been driven out by snow.
They have been working all along the
range. looking for the best pass and the
easiest route down to the Sound.
Railroad engineers and others familiar
with the best lines from Helena to the
Sound have been specializing on the most
probable route for the Burlington to adopt.
Helena being the point at which the road
Is now aiming, it is expected that it will
then go on to Butte and from there run on
up the Missoula river and up the Lolo
fork, then cross the Bitter Root mountains
and run down the Clearwater river to
Lewiston. then down the Snake to Pasco.
From there it would cross the Columbia
river, run up the Yakima. up the Matches.
over the Matches pass and down the Green
water and White rivers to Seattle. This
route, it is claimed. would be the most di-
rect. and would carry the main line
through the mining district around Butte,
through the Palouse country, the Yakima
valley and develop the resources at the
headwaters OF the White river. 1t would
have the advantage over the Northern
Pacific of avoiding the long detour to the
north through the CBur d'Alene noun
tains, and would be at least as short and
have as easy grades as the Great Northern.

The tXoOsier Poet,

The coming of James Whitcomb Riley to
this city under the auspices OF the Chau-
tauqua Lyceum bureau is an event eagerly
looked forward to by all who love refined
humor and poems that appeal TO the sensi-
hilities. He will be here two evenings,
Thursday and Friday, December 80 and 81,
at Plymouth Congregational church. The
Scranton, Pa, Truth says of him:
And who can do Riley justice? From the time
he appears and recites his first dialect poem 70
the last word he utters III delneating the school
instructor, he is simply perfect. Everything is
natural. nothing overdrawn. We recognize, in
all he initiates, people we have known or seen.
He is short. homely, with a nasal twang that is
peculiar, yet we'll adapted to his dialect poems
And as he speaks-at least when he says: Good.
bye, JIM take care OF yourselfi'--we forget he
is homely; his face begins 10 look like the face
of friend; for the faces of those We love grow
beautiful TO us, no matter how homey they NAV
be. And moment later we are convulsed at
his expression as he takes off the UNIQUE old
story teller intent on ''that wounded leg that
needs medical attendance"

SHOT BE THE CONSTABLE.
Serious Result of a Saloon Row ~
SnOqualmie.

SnOqualmie.
J. n. Mott was shot and dangerously
wounded at Snoqualmie at Q O'Clock on
Saturday night by Peter Kennedy, the con-
stable, as consequence OF saloon row.
short time before Mott and J. Burn
side, who had both been drinking, had
had fight in Fowler's saloon, and,
though Kennedy witnessed it. he made no
attempt to stop it. After the fight Mott
went to Miller's store, and was met just
outside il few minutes later by Kennedy,
who had paid a visit TO George Elliott
saloon in the meantime and been Joined
there by his brother. AS Mott stood on
the porch OF Miller's store he saw Ken
nedy coming and said: ''Is that you, Ken
nedy2" Receiving an affirmative answer,
he added:
.'You are the man who hit me in the
back while ago and. bad as l am done
up. can whip you now"
Kennedy replied: "I'il fix you." and,
drawing his revolver. took deliberate aim
and fired. The bail entered three inches
above the heart and lodged Just beneath
the skin of the shoulder. Larry Desmond
was standing directly behind Mott, and if
the revolver had been good one, ne
might also have been injured. and other
men were standing near. Mott was I'M
armed. Kennedy walked away after firing
the snot.
A doctor from Falls City extracted the
ball and dressed the wound. He pro-
nounced the wound serious.

ORGANIZING TO PREVENT STRIKES.
Association OF Trainmen Will Amalga-
mate Once More.

CEDAR RAPIDS, Ia. Dec 25.-All the rail-
road organizations. with the exception of
the swltchmen, are, it is said, to once more
form themselves into an amalgamated as
ISOLATION. A meeting for this purpose will
take place here on December 26. and be
composed of the following brotherhoods
of railroad employees: Locomotive en-
gineers, locomotive fremen, trainmen,
conductors and telegra piers.
1t is said that the object OF the amaga-
nation is to prevent any railroad strike
that might occur during the time of the
Worlds fair. 1t is feared that if the va
rlous brotherhoods are left to their own
discretion, and in view of the dissatisfac-
ton already existing among the organiza-
tons, strikes would ensue on many prom
inent roads of the country. Such conser-
vative labor leaders as Arthur, of the loco
motive engineers, and Ramsey, of the tel
egraphers, who held conference on the
subject some time ago. agreed that if any
organization went on strike during the
fair public sentiment and prejudice would
be SO strong that it would END IN the dis
solution of these organizations. Every
state in the union will send one delegate
from each of the five orders.

0 From the above il Will be seen that for nearly
thirteen years there was an average addition to
the freight car equipment OF the country of 81
BOO annually. or an average percentage of in
crease of per cent. This must be understood
10 be III large part new cars, many railroads
replace worn out numbers and thus this class of
construction does not appear in the record of
additional cars. The year 1887 is seen to have
been OF great activity in car building, but from
that booming period there was a rapid decline,
until in 1890 less than IL 600 were added to
the equipment of roads in the United states
The year 1891 saw q moderate car construction.
aud In 1892 larger one, but not up to the an
ticipatons of those who speculated on such
matters.
1t would seem, therefore, that. with the pro.
nouneed car shortage OF the last year. or wear
and hall, aud with the prospects for large
demand for cars next year, car building must
be actively pushed for some time yet to coma
For months the Car factories have been very
busy with work, and it is estimated that now
the orders on hand will keep all the shops in
the country actively engaged until the first of
March. or perhaps longer, while at the same
time many roads are anxious to get cars, but
cannot place contracts for any early delivery.
Ii during the next year the additional eouip-
ments should equal the average OF the thir.
teen years ending with 1890, there must be an
addition OF between 10000 aud 100000 freight
cars, or greater amount than for any
preceding year except the two extraordinary
ones. 1881 aud 1857. The fact is that for the
last four years up to 1891, car building was
much below the average, and. while some have
fesfed that after this apparent rush OF orders
partly brought about by the prospective Worlds
fair demand, the amount of car building would
fall Of IL is rather to be anticipated that build
lug must be kept up st high point until the
average of construction has been brought up 10

The past week has been the dullest of
the year in the building line. Twelve per-
mits were issued from the building in
spector's Office. but the aggregate cost Of
the work represented was only 500. There
are number of buildings in contempla-
tion. however, mostly expensive resi-
dences, and the return of fine weather will
bring greater degree of activity than has
been witnessed the past two years. Nearly
all the leading architects have several
plans to prepare, on which they will begin
work after the close OF the holiday season,
but as yet they are not prepared to give
out any information regarding these pro-
posed buildings.

NEED OF MORE CAR WORKS.
The Existing Factories Not Enough to
supply the Demand.


The recent discussion in regard to the es-
Enlistment of railroad car factories on the
Sound makes OF interest the following ar
ticle from the Timbermnn on the made
quacy of the existing car works to supply
the demand:
large class OF the sawInil owners Of the
country are very directly interested in the con-
struction of railroad equipment, rs there are
thousands OF mills whose chief customers are
the railroads and shops. TO such lumber
men 1t Is of interest TO know something of the
plans of railroads in this respect. There is very
little positive information given out in regard
to the plans Oh foot or even in regard to the
work actually under way.
The RuiiwGy Master Mechanic published in
Chicago. has given special attention to this mat
ter in the past, but its records do not come down
since the year 1890. However, the following
table. showing the equipment of the railroads as
far rs freight cars is concerned and the additions

MACON, Ga, Dec. 25.-Judge Emory
Speer. of the United States court, rendered
decision yesterday in the case of the
striking telegraph operators against the
receivers. Judge Speer said that the fact
that a man was member of a labor organ
ization was no reason for his discharge.
On the motion Of the strikers asking the
court to reinstate them in their positions.
Judge Speer decided in. their favor so far
as to order the receiver - replace all men
except where their positions had been
filled. In one sense this is a complete vic
tory for labor organizations inasmuch as
it establishes precedent that laborer
cannot be discharged for the sole reason
that he has allied himself to labor.
