The report shows a deficit on the whole
system of $2.595, S41, compared with a sur
plus In the previous year of 81, Uep, I57. The
heavy decrease was due to the silver crisis.
the failure of the Kansas wheat crop, and

Reorganization Plans Adopted.
Thu Boston News Bureau understands
from authoritative sources that the execu-
tive authorities at Washington and the
Union Pacific reorganization committee
have agreed upon Attorney General Olney's
plan for an adjustment Of the Union Pacific
debt to the government.
Judge Headley of New York, as the rep
resentative Of the Attorney General. has
been at work upon the details Of the
matter, and tomorrow Attorney General
Olney, 1t is understood. will submit his bill
to the government, to which all parties In
interest. II Is believed, will readily assent.
1t will then remain with Congress to say
II 1t will take up the question Of a settle
AtStS a. ShiS SSSStoh, dttQ NdSHl1ktOn au-
vices are to the effect that under the leader
ship Of the Pacific railroads committee, the
measure will be taken up and passed, pos
sfbly before the tariff legislation is finished.
Attorney General Olney's bill, IT Is said,
provides for the full payment of the gov
eminent and accrued interest. The govern
ment lien will remain unchanged, and be
improved by the cancellation of 81, 800, 900
of the first mortgage bonds of the railroad
sinking fund In the U. s. treasury, which
will reduce the first mortgage to $26, 900. 900.
This will be extended by the railroad
company for seventy-ive years, with an
annual sinking fund of s45, 900. The re-
mainder of the U. S. treasury sinking fund
will be used for the benefit of the property.
Until 1905 the Union Pacific will pay 2
per cent per annum upon its debt to the
government, and after 1905 it will pay prin-
cipal and Interest, adjusted upon a 2 per
cent interest basis, by means Of 100 annual
payments to the government of 81, $50, 900
each. 1t Is provided that the total fixed
charges OF the company hall rot exceed
IS, 5000 900 per annum.
To accomplish this, 1t is understood. the
reorganization committee has agreed Upon
a 4 per cent general mortgage bond for the
absorption Of the Junior liens of the COM
pany, but many of the prior liens will not
be interfered with.
This government settlement and reorgani-
cation Of the Union Pacific will be without
reference to the Gulf, Short Line and Navi-
CATION systems.

ANOTHER CANA MANIFESTO.

fe1XOtO Charged With Putting ILLEGAL
Devices ON the Currency.
NEW YORK, Jan. 1O.-A special to the
Herald from Montevideo. Uruguay, says:
Admiral Saldanho Da CANA In his second
anifesto charges President Peixoto with
ordering the issuance Of paper money
which will bear the in print of imperial
figures that were ordered to be DESTROYED
when the republic was formed.
The manifesto also appeals to the citi-
Gems Of Rio and all Of Brazil to rise against
the military tyrant and declares he is In
favor Of a republic with civilian and not
military head.
With the words viva Revolucon, Death
to Jacobinism." the manifesto ends
Thus Da Cana endeavors to explain,
away the charges that he favors a mon
archy. -
The government has received in the last
two days protest from the dean Of the
diplomatic corps against the danger the
war ships of several nations are exposed
to by the explosion of shells and shots from
the rival combatants. In commentin on
why the foreign ships remain in exposed
positions. The anchorage they select af-
fords an opportunity for the rebel ships to
lie behind them, thus bringing the foreign
ers directly In. the line of fire. 1t Is sug-
gested that the foreign vessels should move
their positions and give the government
an opportunity to fire on the rebel fleet
Stray shells and shots for several nights
have fallen in crowded parts of the city
Many persons have been wounded and
much property damaged.
1t Is reported that the commanders of
foreign war ships have notified Admiral Da
Cana that he must not use his big guns
on the city. This procedure is farcical, as
the missiles from the machine guns are
more harmful in action.
