clared war on the horse thieves who have
been preying on them for years. A fund of

they have corralled in Wyoming, near the
Montana line, and scatter, big force will
be upon them and the result will
be pitched battle, for which
the stockmen will be prepared.
Detectives have been with the gang and

LABOR GRIEVANCES
Union Pacific Employees Present
Theirs to Dickinson.
ARE NO BAD FEELINGS
The Conductors and Order of Traipmen Petit
ton New Schedule Of Wages
PrObabIe-NO Strike.

OMAHA, Neb., Jan. 30.-TSpecial telegram
TO HE HERALD. The Union Pacific griev
ance committees have submitted their COM
plants and demands to the railroad com
pany and Assistant General Manager Dick
linton has them under consideration. The
two committees, one representing the con
ductors only and the other the Order OF
Iralnm On, have been holding secret ses-
slons for month past, and several days
ago agreed upon the propositions to be sub
mltted to the railroad officials. Although
representing two different organizations
the committees have been working in har-
mony with each other, and in fact have had
JOINT meetings to discuss matters of mutual
interest. This is due to the fact the Order
OF Trainmen has many conductors
among its members, more. it is
asserted, than the conductors order
Itself. The conclusions of the COM
mlttees were laid before Mr.. Dickson
several days ago. Among the most I'M
portant demands was for a revision of the
schedule of wages on several divisions and
the railroad men have submitted a new
schedule which they ask TO have put in
effect. In the new country penetrated by
the great Union Pacific system the condi-
tons under which men labor change from
year to year and the committees are asking
Tor REIMBURSEMENT to correct inequalities
which they deem to have arisen. The rail
road men also ask for the modification of
some of the rules now in force for their
government. On the southern end
OF the Denver & Fort Worth division
the trainmen complain that they
have not been getting all the extra time
they are entitled to and they insist upon
having redress. A well known railroad
man says this shortage may be due to the
efforts OF superintendent DESTROYS Of
making record for economy, but he is in
cllned to think it is the result of defective
system of reporting and recording time.
The trainmen also have number of
grievances concerning individuals of par
tlcular localities. Both employees and OF
hclals express the opinion that they will
reach satisfactory settlement of these
questions without serious trouble. Both
sides are disposed to be fair and there
is no threat or whispers OF
strike. 1t is thought that questions in
volvlng considerable money outlay will
be held in allegiance for the consideration
OF General Manager Clarke, who has lust
returned to st. Louis from the Transcon-
tinental meeting in New York, and it is
expected to reach Omaha next week. Mr..
Clarke long ago signitied his desire TO be
relieved OF the burden of minor details, and
1T is understood that Mr.. Dickinson has
ample authority to pass upon most Of the
grievances submitted to him. 1t is believed,
therefore. that the work of the comm ttees
will be concluded within the next week or
ten days at the longest, and that the con
ductors and brakemen of the Union Pa
citic will continue work without Interrupt
ton and on more satisfactory basis than
ever before.

cation by Judge of Grimes Foster, son of

ton may be arranged in peace; that the
GOOD VIII OF the American government and
magnamnity of the American people are suf-

having in charge the preparation of the
regular river and harbor appropriation bill
The purpose of the delegation was to Sc
cure the construction and maintenance of a
IWenty-one foot channel from the head of
Lake Superior through various connect
ing links between the great lakes and
through the Erie canal to the sea.
thompson said the total expenditures IN
the Improvement of the great lakes has
been less than $50, 000 600. The saving in
the last year, due to lake transportation,
was $50, 100000 more than the cost of the
improvements. Ali that has been accom-
pllshed in the past by giving sixteen feet
OF water would not only be duplicated but
enhanced ten fold, by the expenditure of
something over 100000 to secure
depth of twenty feet. He thought
very little need be added to
secure the appropriation desired.
canada spent almost $4,000, 900 upon her
waterways, and inside of q few years
there would be a clear waterway of
fourteen feet through Canadian soil from
the head of of Lake Superior to the At
lantlc. When Canada has fourteen foot
waterway and the United States only six
feet through the Erie canal we could no
more compete with her than wheelbar-
row with a freight train. Thompson said

interests were large and would be enor-
nous if they could get it to ocean and en-
gage in ocean voyages during the few win
ter months they were now idle. Firms on
the lake had underbid coast firms for the
construction of American war vessels and
the bids were rejected, not because they
were not responsible bidders but on &C
count of'our treaty with Great Britain.

priatlon of 100000 for complete survey

gram to THE HERALD That the credit of
Brigham City is a No. l, was proven to-
day by the fact that Blair & Co., bankers,
Wall street, New York city, have con-
tracted to buy the S27, 900 city water works

The contract was signed by George F.
Penhale for Blair & Co., and by Mayor
Joseph M. Jensen and Recorder George L.

with the result of the sale, especially when
it is known that these bonds were sold at
par and that the city did not have to paw
any commissions or allow any discount
The sale of these bonds has already created

Henry James as short story Writer.

1t is a commonplace of literature that the
short story, brought to so much perfection
by the French, has never fourished in
England. Half dozen causes might be
assigned for the fact, but it is probably
chiefly due to the inferior sense Of art as
art possessed by the English as compared
with the French. The short story is above
all matter of form, of proportion: and
the English sense of form, IN respect to
Literature, is apt to be eonspicuously want
ing. There are exceptions, OF course. and
notable ones but we speak of the rule.
MIR. James, whose particular genius and
method of work touch that Of the French
on more sides than one, is nowhere more
French than in this; he satifes our sense
OF form, of truth of proportion beyond any
other writer in the English language that
we could name. His shorter stories are of
length varying from a few pages to nine
or ten chapters; but in the best of them, of
whatever length, and that includes large
proportion, the form is perfect. -JIturays

General Satisfaction Over the Aceentsnra oF
the apOlogy-Their Vessels Were Ill
Prepared for War

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-Secretary Blaine
sent cable TO Minister Egan this morning
lnstructing him to inform the Gillian gov
eminent its proposition for the settlement
OF the difference between the two govern
ments made in response to the ultimatum
OF the 2lst inst. as satisfying to the Presi-
dent OF the United States as indicating a
good prospect that the controversy can now
be adjusted on terms satisfactory to this
government by the usual diplomatic
methods. The telegram makes no requests
or suggestion of any kind whatever for the
salute by Chill to the American flag. There
was nothing said at yesterdays cabinet
meeting on this subject and there is no rea-
son TO believe this government will require
such salute from Chill.

Effect of Harrison's Message in Chill

SANTIAGO DE CHILL via Galveston, Jan.
3d. Special dispatch to the Associated
Press. Late Thursday last very brief
synopsis of President Harrisou's second
message to the American Congress relative
to ChiIi's position in the dispute with the
United States was received and in a short
time the news spread through the city that
there was no further danger of war. The
tenor of the brief telegraphic reports show
Ing the United States was willing to &C
cept Chili's apology.
President Harrison's first message caus-
ed great excitement here, where its war
ike appearances were thoroughly discuss
ed IN cafes and other places of public re-
sort. But the second message caused a re-
vulslon of feeling and the people generally
became much calmer and expressions of
satisfaction was heard that the dispute was
amlcaoly settled through diplomatic chan
nels.
For the first time in four months the
Gillian press Is publishing respectful com
ments concerning Egan, United States
minister, and other American officials who
heretofore have been the objects of MANY
vltuperatlve attacks and it is thought the
Gillian newspapers henceforth will be
more circumspect in their utterances re-
gardlug America and Americans. Con-
gress adjourned today.
Several members of the Gillian cabinet
have stated to the Associated Press CORES
pendent the reason why the recall of Egan
was requ ested last week was he notified
Secretary Blaine the Gillian government
had issued a safe conduct TO the refugees
and afterwards withdrawn it. The news
papers here publish dispatch from Blaine
to Egan to-day in which the United States
secretary of state says Egg never in
formed him safe conduct had been issued
for the refugees. Sefou Pleriera. CHILEAN
minister OF foreign affairs, thanked Egan
warmly for giving him copy of the dis
patch mentioned.
Egan received tonight from Blaine dis
patch, the import of which is similar To
that of the message sent Congress by Pres
ideut Harrison Thursday. Blaine saws the
President is satisfied with the withdrawal
OF Senior Matta's telegram and request for
the recall of Egan, and hopes the affair of
the attack on the Baltimore's men NAV be
settled amicably. The contents Of this dis
patch will be conveyed to Minister Pieriera
by Egau Monday.

Three Tickets in the Field In Kaysyille.

KAYsyILLE, Utah, Jan. 30.-[Special tele-
gram to The HERALD. Late tonight a
third municipal ticket for Mondays cleo
ton made its appearance to the surprise of
almost the entire community. No one
seems to know exactly who is responsible
for its appearance, but the general impress
sion is that it is the work of a few dis
gruntled mugwumps who have not stamina
enough to affiliate with either of the ma
tional parties The ticket is composed of
Democrats, Republicans and Independents.
and it is expected that strong fight will
be made N its favor, as its instigators are
doubtless depending on the votes of those
who have not as yet declared treir party
utilization. Forwarned is fore-armed. and
the Democrats will be in the line of their
duty on Monday and will undoubtedly
score a great victory.
