WANT MORE MONEY.
Readings Receivers Ask the Court to Let
Them Borrow $5,5OO,OOO.

The expected application of the re-
ceiyers of the Reading Railroad to the
courts for permission to issue certificates
was made at Philadelphia on Tuesday,
when Thomas Hart, Jr., counsel for the
receivers, appeared before Judge Dallas
in the United States circuit court and
presented the formal application. Judge
Dallas, after carefully examining the
application, made an order referring the
petition to George l.. Crawford, master
in the case, who is to report to the court
upon the advisabiIity of authorizing the
issue.
The Combine" newspapers have been
telling their readers all along that the
Reading was all right and the receivers
would straighten everything out in
few months, but this application puts at
rest all reports of the condition of the
company. 1t is bankrupt, and all the
columns of ''press bureau" articles that
McLeod's free puff editors can publish
will not prevent the public from believ-
ing it bankrupt.
In their petition the receivers ac-
knowledge they have been unable to
make any very substantial reduction in
the Indebtedness that was due February
20, when the company passed into their
hands, and they state that the indebted
ness at the present time is 81, ,053, 600.
The receivers go on to say that they
"beiieve if they are authorized to issue
certificates to the amount of So, 500, 600,
they will be able with the current
receipts to meet the current liabilities
of the company, as the same will accrue
during the year ending the 1st day of
March, 1894, including all interest char
ges, rentals and guarantees, including
the outays required to be made for
equipments, notes and car trust INSTALL
ments maturing during the year on con-
tracts made prior to January l. 1898"
They only "beleve" they can do all
this, and make no guarantee that it will
be done. 1t is expected, however, that
the application to borrow the money
will be granted without any opposition,
as nobody but the public must suffer the
consequences-and that is too small a fac
tor to consider when the interests of the
p. & r. financiers are at stake.

German residents of town assembled
at the Cottage hall with their ladies.

dancing was INDUCED in until eleven

dent, al. Geoppert; secretary, Philip

having during the four hours of its session
come to the determination to nominate the
elective officers. The ticket so nominated
is composed of William r. Cox of North
Carolina, an ex-representative, for secre-
tary of the senate; Richard j. Bright Of
Indiana, ex-sergeant-at arms, for sergeant
alarms; Rev. w. H. Milburn, present chap
lain of the house of representatives, the
chaplain of the senate.
This result was not reached without a
protracted debate, for there was a consid-
cradle element of the party that opposed
the idea of doing anything that would be a
violation of the precedents of the senate
and give cause 10 opposition on the part of
the Republicans.

That Town Wants to be a County Seat.

The streets of our city are certainly in
frightful condition when fourteen dead
animals are found within one square.
This does not speak well for those who
reside in the Immediate vicinity. If
the old proverb, Cleanliness is next to
godiness," was practiced more frequntly
by our citizens, our city would be in a

cabinet decided to send only one represent

commission would serve the purpose better
than commission.

Austin Ladies On Guard.

The following resolutions, adopted
by the Woman's Silver League of
Austin, have been received by the
INDEPENDENT with request that
they be published:
WHEREAS, We the members of the
Woman's Silver League of Austin
Lander County, Nevada, fully reali-
zing that tho signs Of tho tunes de-
mand our ablest thoughts and efforts,
not alone in the Industrial aud edu-
cational, but also in the financial
world OF to day; consequently, we en-
phatically declare ourselves in favor
OF the restoration Of silver to that
standard waich was for so many
years acce pied as the settled policy
Of the world. We firmly believe that
the present depression in business,
and in all industries is due to the
characterization Of silver in 1873. BY
that covert act, the miner is deprived
of the just reward for his labor; his
Inability to purchase the products of
the farmer and manufactures, has
caused depression in trade, which
largely effects the self supporting
women in the silver producing States;
hence we deem 1T the duty OF the
women of these states, to CO operate
with allother Womans Leagues who
are seeking to wrest themselves and
future generations from the remorse-
less grasp Of the political, and the
monied manipulators, who contin-
ually and presistently violate those
constitutional principles freedom
and equality which have made us
the most practical, and the most pro-
gaessive people in the worlds history;
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, that this League unani-
mousiy declare themselves ia favor
of the Tree coinage of silver at the
ratio of 16; to and that we condemn
the action Of our government in
adopting and following the financial
policy of England--a government
run in the interests of mobiles. land
lords, bankers and capitalists for
their own class exclusively, while ours
is a government, "of the people, by
the people, and for the people,"
Rcsolved, that this League favor
the use of silver, and that We insist
on its being paid to US in all business
transactions, thus giving practical
evidence, that as Americans we have
! confidence in the products of oul
mines, thereby throwing the lie in
the face Of the foreign tinancers,
who claim that, while we hoauL silver
we will not use it.
RESOLVED, that this League consid-
ers the action of President Cleveland
on the silver question, to be in direct
contradiction Of those sacred princi-
Piles, which has placed him in the
higest Office in the gift of the people
of these United States.
ResoIved, that copy Of the pre-
amble and resolutions, now adopted +,
with letter calling attention to the
same, be sent to our Representatives
in Congress, also to Mrs. Cleveland,
Mrs. Potter Palmer, the Woman's
Industrial League Of America, and TO
