UNION PACIFIC PULLING OUT.

Earnings Growing and 81 ZOO, 900 Of
Floating Debt Notes Redeemed.
The Boston Trdpelcy says of the condi ton of
the Union Pacific:
The statement has been made that the August
figures would make the best showing In the
history of the company. This Is somewhat ex-
travsgant, although there is Official authority
very satisactory The remittances from the
West for month or more past have averaged
fully 100000 daily, and all the reports as TO the
traffic that the road Is getting are of the most
encouraging character.
The trustees of the three years collateral note
issue have during the past month taken up
about 10000 more of the notes making an ag-
gregate OF $316UD1 OF them that nave been re-
deemed 70 date. And there are funds in hand
al the present time sufficient to take up 500,
advisable The money to redeem the notes has
come 10 part from sale OF the securities al good
prces, but tue larger proportion OF it has come
from other sources.
In this connection it is estimated that the
securities held ~ collateral have a market value
ranging from to 10 per cent above the vaiua-
ton placed upon them when the notes were
Issued The future REDEEM ption of the notes
will go forward just as rapidly a. the mar
ket conditions will permit, but the trustees
Can get what il in their Judgment a fair
pgice for them. The probability Is that a larger
portion of the notes will be taken up by or be-
lore their maturity, and such as are not can, it
Ii believed. be extended without any difficulty
1he management OF the road 10 now expected
TO secure some definite aud positive action by
congress at its coming session with reference TO
areiundlng OF the Debt due TO the government.
The administration Is known to be in favor OF a
long term, low rate bond, and although the
present Indebtedness does not begin to mature
until 1895. IL 10 proposed 20 get the matter all
liked up during the coming year.

OF the campaign in the Joy street schoolhouse
last evening Ralph Simon, the chairman Of
the club presided, and brief talks were given
by John Wiley and County Treasurer Byron
Phelps Both speakers dwelt almost exclusively
On the canal question and the tariff was not
mentioned
Mr. Wiley pronounced the scheme TO bond
King county 70 build the canal impracticab!e.
The government alone could secure right-of-
way for anything like a reasonable amount OF
money. II the county undertook the task by
the Smiths Cove route 1t would involve long
struggle with tho railroads, whose tracks cross
the needed land. He spoke highly OF John w.
Prat,s pamphlet on the canal, recently pub
ushed, and advised his hearers to read It care
fully.
Mr.. Phelps referred to the interest taken in
the canal project at Kent, Renton and through
out the country tributary TO those places, and
the amount of rich marsh land that would be
drainet by lowering the lake. The old-lirae
agitation, when every body was heart and soul
for the canal, was mentioned, and special refer.
ence made TO the sea aptalns who always prayed
for its completion.

tiers, died OF quick consumption yesterday
morning at AS O'clock at Providence hospital.
Dir. Holgate was born at Trenton, Butler
county, o., October 10. 1854. He was an Ameri-
can, his direct ancestry having been of the
earliest settlers of Pennsylvania and Connecti-
cut In 1853, being then about 10 years old, he
crossed the plains from Iowa, where he then
lived, by means Of an OK team, with his
brother-in-law, Edward Hanfort. his mother,
two sisters aud a brother and others. He fret
settled in Oregon, on the " llamstte river, but
In 1854 moved to Seattle, where he has ever
since resided. After coming to Seattle he
settled on q claim at Salmon bay. near what 10
now the city of Ballard, but after q short resi-
dence there abandoned IL and took up a home
stead on the west side OF Lake " Washington. In
the memorable battle of February, 1856, between
the white settlers of Seattle and the Klickitat
and other Indians, who then invaded the town,
Mr.. Hoigate took an active part. II was during
this fight that his brother, Milton G. Holgate,
was shot and instantly killed while standing in
the doorway OF the blockhouse on Cherry street
During the years of danger and hardship that
ensued. when Seattles outlook for the future
was discouragi Dg, his courage was of the best
and his heart the stoutest His first residence
In the city was on Columbia and Third streets,
where he lived for many years. In about 1868
or 1864 he moved to the White river valley, and
made that his home until 1873. when he returned
TO the city. About year ago he moved to Kent
Mr.. Holgate was one OF the founders of the
Baptist church in this city aud WAS always one
of the most liberal contributors TO Its support
and to the support OF other churches IN King
county. His life was always that Of con-
eistent Christian, aud he was good citizen.
His only surviving relative, aside from nephsws
and nieces, Ia his sister, Mrs. A. J. Hanford,
who resides in this city. His brother, John C.
HoIgate came 10 Seattle in the early "forties''
and il was his glowing description OF Elliott
bay that indnoed other settlers to brave the
trials OF making a homo in an unsettled eoun-
try. During the mining excitement at Silver
City, Idaho, about 1865 he went to that place
and was shot through the head in miners
