A LONDON SENSATION.
Diamond Stocks Among the
Rothschilds Securities.
PREMIER RHODES DECLARATION
He Claims That Secretary Carlisle Prom
Used That the Senate Would Modify
the High Duty Put on Diamonds in
the Wilson Tariff Bill.

the High Duty Put on Diamonds in
the Wilson Tariff Bill.
LoNDoN.-Senator Teller's proposed
high tariff on diamonds is causing a sem
sation here, where the Rothschilds have
recently bonded four and half millions
sterling (nearly $40, OOO, O0O) of bonds for
the South American Diamond Trust.
Besides these bonds the Rothschilds are
known to be very largely interested in
the stocks of the Diamond Trust. The
proposed high tariff would produce a
great fall in the value of the immense
stock of unsold diamonds on hand and
greatly reduce the dividends to holders
of the trusts stocks, which for years
past has been 25 per cent. A cable re-
ceived by the officials OF the trust from
Premier Rhodes of Cape Colony, it is
stated, declares that Secretary Carlisle
promised last March that the Senate
would modify the duty put on diamonds
when the Wilson bill passed the House.
Teller's amendment increasing the duty
to 30 per cent is regarded as blow
aimed by the leader of the American
free-silver men at the Rothschilds, the
leading bankers in Europe, who have
done so much to maintain the single
gold monetary standard. The Colorado
Senator and ex-Speaker Reed have con-
sidered various forms of discriminating
duties against those countries which OPP
pose an international agreement for free
use of silver.

CHRIsTIAN1A.-The Storthing has con-
cluded the debate upon the report OF the
committee appointed to examine into
the conduct of several high military and
civil officers, who, it was charged, had
at the height of the conflict between the
Crown and Liberal party, which resulted
in the impeachment of the Conservative
Cabinet, acted in a manner prejudicial
to the safety of Sweden and Norway.
The House adopted the report by vote
of 81 to SO. In substance the report says
at the time of the difference between the
Crown and Liberals the officers in ques--
ton deliberately ruined 80, 900 rifles and
got the guns at Christiania ready'for
service. In addition they had the war
ships at Norten, the chief naval station
of the kingdom, cleared for action.

ASTORIA'S RAILROAD.
II is Again to be Brought Into
Great Prominence.
prRTJC ATTENTION is OCCUPIED.

Ar Intimation That Another Effort VIII
be Made by the Stanton Campbell
Party to Come to Terms With the
,storians-COast News.
ASTORIA. OR.-The railroad question,
which has been quiescent for some weeks
most is again to be brought into promi-
nepce, and will occupy public attention
for time. When Judge Brown left here
for the East month or so ago, it was
Understood that he had a verbal under
standing with a majority of the subsidy
committee that no contract should be let
until such time as he could confer with
fine New Workers represented and learn
what arrangements could be made with
them TO enter into a contract for the
completion of the railroad by way of the
VpbaIem route. Before his departure
and after the refusal of the committee to
give him mortgage on the subsidy in
consideration of a deposit of $500, 900
Mr.. Brown stated that he believed he
could make such arrangements as would
he in all respects satisfactory to the As
toria people, but could make no definite
statement until he had an interview
with his principals. A week ago Mr..
Brown telegraphed the subsidy commit
tee that he had completed his arrange
ments in satisfactory manner and
would be in Astoria in few days.
Later a dispatch was received from Mr..
Browns son, saying his father was i'll in
Denver and would not be in a condition
to travel for some days. This latter
communication is interpreted by some
parties as an indication that Mr..
Browns plans had possibly miscarried.
Whether this view of the case is correct
or not, the StantonC Campbell party will
asaip be in the field, and will make an
amended offer. q. R. Campbell, the
Chicago contractor, has returned from
Portland, and intimates that another
effort would be made by his people to
come to terms with Astorians.

ATCHISON AND TOPEKA
Reorganization of the Com
pany Proposed.
THE PLAN OF SAME SUBMITTED.

New Company Will Create an Issue OF
Fifty-Year Income Bonds Secured by
Mortgage Covering Same Property as
New Second Mortgage.
New YoRK.-The plan of reorganiza-
ton of the Atchison and Topeka has
been submitted by the reorganization
committee. The plan contemplates q
foreclosure either under the general
mortgage dated October Is, 1889, or un-
der the second mortgage dated May 1,
1892, securing the so-called Atlantic and
Pacific, and the formation by the pur-
chasers at such sale of new company,
which will be freed from all obligations
of the present company except such as
are prior to the mortgage foreclosed or
are assumed by the new company. If
foreclosure is had on the general mort
gage, the company will provide for the
payment of the past-due interest on the
general mortgage bonds, and will issue
new bonds to the holders of the general
mortgage bonds, such new bonds to have
the same lien and to be the same in
terms as the old bonds. The new COM
pany will create an issue of fifty-year
income bonds secured by a mortgage
covering the same property as the new
second mortgage. The total authorized
amount of such income bonds shall be
limited to $11 100000. Such income
bonds shall be entitled to per cent in
terest per annum, payable annually out
of the net earnings. The stock of the
new company, less such amount as may
be required to qualify the. directors, is to
be held by a trust company until inter-
est at the rate of per cent shall have
been earned and paid on the new income
bonds for three consecutive years, and
negotiable trust certificates will be issued
by such trust company against the stock
held in trust. The asserting holders OF
the stock shall receive negotiable trust
certificates representing one share OF new
stock for each share so deposited upon
which the assessment has been paid
in full, together with income bonds for
the assessment.

SUNDAY IN THE ARMY.
1t is Day of Rest SO Far as the Service
Will Permit.

Will PERMIT
WASHINGTON, D. ca story coming
from Omaha, Neb., that Charles Ceder-
quis, private in the Second Cavalry, is
under arrest waiting court-martial for
refusal to participate in the target prac-
tice Sunday, met very prompt denial
at the War Department. The officers
say the man has undoubtedly assigned
a false reason for his arrest, as Sunday
target practice is unheard of in the army,
and it would decidedly be in violation of
army regulations. The United States
soldier has always been exempt from
any unnecessary toll on Sunday, and in
that respect has much the advantage of
European soldiers. Even in time of war
this rule has been observed whenever
practicable, and during the late civil war
President Lincoln, quoting the words of
Washington, made general order en-
joining observance of Sunday on the Of
fcers and men of the army, and the
spirit of this order still pervades the
service.
