HELD STANFORD'S BONDS
Upon an Understanding With
Their Owner.
WILL RETURN THEM ON DEMAND
Mrs. Stanford Not Likely to Move
for the Disruption of the
Southern Pacific.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1S.-C. P. Huntington
was not in town to-day. but his counsel,
Charles w. Tweed. said: 1.-The story that
securities are withheld from Mrs. Stanford
is utterly false. and you may deny it as
emphatcally as you please. There is a
perfect understanding between bunting
ton and Mrs. Stanford. She has made no
demand for securities and will bring no
suit. 1t is true certain stocks and bonds
were put into the Pacific Improvement
Company by Stanford during his life, to
be used for certain puri oses, under agree
ment with other gentlemen who contrib
uted like amounts. among them Mr..
Huntington. When these purposes have
been fulfilled there will be an accounting.
and the securities or their proceeds will be
returned to the Stanford estate. The fact
that Mrs. Stanford. as executrix of her
husbands estate. mentions these securities
In her inventory as part of the estate
which has not yet actually come into her
possession probably led to the report that
they were being wrongfully withheld from
her, which is not true"

Yenerating the Holy Tanic.

PARIS, May 14.-The festivals in honor of the Holy Coat at Treves are this week to be equalled by the revi- val of veneration for the tunic of Ar genteuil, which, from time immemor- ial, has been looked upon as the inner garment worn by Christ when he was scourged at the pillar. The relic has always retained it's local celebrity, but the Bishop of Versailles having referred the matter to Rome, the Sacred Congregation of Relies has declared that the authenticity of the tunic if more than sufficient to authorize the intense reverence due to the accessories of the passion of our Lord. The last festival of Chris tendon in it's honor was in 1880, when the tunic was transferred to magnificent reliquary presented by the Duchess de Guise. That of this year will be honored by the presence of several Cardinals and Bishops, in- cluding prelates from England, Ire land, and the United States, and will last from today to June 10.

Ii evidences the fact that sou are alive to the interests of your progressive city; that you are be lievers in the doctrine of reciprocity; that you recognize fully that the de- Yel0pment and prosperity of this road goes hand in hand with the growth of your beautiful city. 1t is not strange that Pine Bluff should take pride in everything that per tains to the welfare of this road when it is remembered that one of her own honored citizens, Mr. N ] T. White, then a State Senator, passed the bill which made it pos sible for the road to be built through the State.
 It was here that the headquarters of the Chief Engineer were established thirteen years ago. It was here that the first substantial aid and encouragement were given. Your public-spirited citizens donated the right-of-way through your city and county, and in addition grounds for depots and this beautiful land on which these yards and costly build ings have been erected. It was here that my first official acts as Vice President were performed. And from that time to this, l am pleased to SHY that nothing has occurred to disturb the hefriendly relations existing between the city and the road.
 This beautiful building, erected by your philosophical citizens, donated to this company for the purpose of increasing its capacity to rebuild and manufacture its own cars, will, it is confidently believed, add much to the growth of your city. AnX- iously awaiting the return of more prosperous times, thecompany hopes to be able to give employment to an increased number of men The lib- eral policy inaugurated by YolIr city towards public enterprises is an eX- ample, which if followed by all of our counties, cities and towns, as well as by our State legislative and execu- tive authorities, will result in the building of many new lines of rail- way. Manufacturing industries of various kinds will follow; and thus will Arkansas. 70 rich in undeveloped resources, be placed in the front rank with her older sister States.
 Sincerely rcgretting my inability to be present on this interesting occas- ion, to share with you in celebrating the completion of this grand building. and confidently hoping and believing that the day will be an enjoyable one for all l am very sincerely yours,
