A Victory for the Union Pacific People.
Evans Faction Defeated.
DENVER, April 10.--The annual meet
ing of the Union Pacific and Gulf sys-
tom resulted in victory for the Union
Pacific people. The following directors
were elected: Oliver Ames, represent
ing the stock of the late f. L. Ames,
Edwin F. Atkins, Samuel Carr, S. H.
Clark. F. Gordon Dexter. Il. NJ. Dodge,
James g. Harris, Morgan Jones, Oliver
M. Minks. Harris vas elected in place
of Ex-Governor Evans. Evans friends
did not vote and failed to protest against
the Union Pacific officials voting prox.
les, and the matter will probably go to
the courts. The directors have not yet
met to elect officers.
The Evans faction refused to vote
their stock. Ex-Governor Evans said
that he had filed a protest which would
be included in the proceedings OF the
meeting, against the Gulf line being in
corporated into the reorganization OF
the Union Pacific.
Union Pacific Attorney Carroll smiled
st the action of the Evans faction and
intimated that it was another case OF
the tail trying to wag the dog. He said (:
"Our people are in no hurry to get the
Gulf back, but as soon as the case gets
into the Jurisdiction of the circuit Judge
it will be settled our way"

authority OF the court. Mr.. Hendricks
had not told the receivers OF this state
of affairs, aud Mr.. Spooner advised him
10 do so at once. The next Mr.. Spoon
or heard OF the matter was telegram
to come to Milwaukee to meet Receiv-
erH Payne, 0akes and Rouse. Mr..
Hendricks was there, and they consult
ed about the new schedule and the ne
cessity for an injunction.
The new schedule Mr.. Spooner had a
hand in preparing for submission to the
court. He dictated part of it and Mr..
Miller part. He presented the matter
to Judge jenkins in chambers and called
his attention to the portion which might
be open to discussion, but which be
(Spooner) told the Judge was sustain
able, and referred to Judge Pardee's de-
cision to fortify his position. He told the
judge of the threatened trouble by men
along the road because OF the new sche-
dule. The judge took the matter under
advisement, and on Tuesday issued the
order as prayed.
Mr.. Boatner asked if it was the COM
mon practice in western courts for
judges to issue permanent iniunctlone,
ex parte, in chambers. and Mr.. Spooner
replied that it was not the practice any
where, and that the injunction allowed
was not permanent nor was it meant
to be.
Mr.. Spooner was in the chair for
more than an hour. His explanation ol
the order and what 1t was meant to ac-
complish put a different phase on il
from what the labor chiefs expected.

HEAVEN AT HAND.

A Contemplated Change of Name for the
Industrial Army.
RENO, New, April l0.--When the Sec
ond section OF the east bound passenger
train. made up of baggage, express,
mail and four cars OF fast time freight,
arrived this morning, the Reno regi men
of the Industrial army boarded the tops
of the freight cars and refused to get off.
After consultation by the railroad
men, a yard engine slipped down,
coupled on the hind end. and the pin
was drawn between the mail and freight
cars. Before the army realized what
was going on, the two sections were fly
ing in opposite directions. The mail
section stopped west of town. The
freight section backed on a siding east
of town. The regular engine which took
a run west, coupled on the mail and
went through town at 40 miles an hour,
leaving the army on their perch.
Lieutenant White, who left on the
first section with ticket for
.Wadsworth, when told OF the action Of
the Utah court, said they would over
come that difficulty easily by changing
the name OF the army to Heaven at
Hand" calling it a religious body on a
pilgrimage to Washington, as the con-
stitution of the United States provides
that no one shall be interfered with in
the performance of religious duties. and
a conflict with the laws be thus avoided.
Nj. German OF San Francisco, who
was appointed to succeed Lieutenant
White, was arrested at O'Clock on a
charge Of leading a riot. While ma
jority Of the army was following him to
the court house. another train pulled
out with only eight of the Common
wealers aboard. The balance were or
dered to disperse, and went into cam p
on the outskirte OF the town.
Major General Hubert and Lieutenant
White passed through ON the Westbound
train tonight from Wadsworth with
tickets for Sacramento. A number oi
the army got wind of it, boarded the car
and told the leaders what they thought
OF them in no complimentary language,
claiming that they were getting away
with the money collected in Reno,
leaving the army to rustic fol-
themselves. The leaders only replied
the money was all used for expenses
that they had to 20 to California to
bring the balance of the army through
and take these men with them.
All is quiet tonight and there was NO
attempt to board the east bound passen'
ger train.

UN1oN PAoIFIo AFFAIRS.
RumOr That the Receivers win
Resign.

"A RumOr That the Receivers VIII
Resign.
OMAHA, April 10.-A sensation in
Union Pacific affairs is the report that
Receivers Anderson, Coudert and Dosne
will resign in consequences of Judge
CsldwelPs criticism, aud possibly also
Judge Dundy's delay in fixing their SAL
aries, until he should see what they
earned. Another thing that causes un-
easiness is the reorganization scheme.
None OF the different interests will con-
cede anything. The officers are begin
ming to think an agreement will soon be
effected between the Union Pacific and
Gull roads. Mr.. Mcconnell went to the
annual Gulf election today to look after
Union Pacific interests.
None of the receivers of the Union
Pacific are in the city, but it ia positively
asserted at Union Pacific headquarters
that there is no foundation whatever in
the report that the receivers intend to
resign. General Manager Dickinson
was emphatic today in his denial of the
rumor. Mr.. Dickinson also said that to-
morrow he would restore the salaries oi
the man whose pay was reduced last

New YORK, April 10-E. Ellery An
derson, one of the Union Pacific receiv-
ere, denied that there had been any res-
ignation, and said; THE receivers OF
the Union Pacific system, however, have
been somewhat shaken up over the re-
cent decision of Judge Caldwell, and it
has been question in our minds
whether or not our relations to the com

Opponents of the Measure Hope to De-
feat 1t.
WASHINGTON, April 10.-The oppon.
ents of the ratification of the Chinese
treaty are decidedly encouraged over the
prospects. Since the treaty was taken
up in executive session Satur-
day, they have been led to
believe many Republican senators
will assist in opposing the ratification,
and are not without hope of assistance
from the Democratic side. The fact
that two-thirds vote is necessary to
secure ratification of treaty is favor
able to the opposition. They will
first try to defeat the treaty,
and if they fail in that will then
seeks to have it amended. Senator
White of California, quoted as favorable
to the treaty, is expected to reach
Washington this week. His position
will probably have influence on the
Democratic eide. 1t now looks as if the
opposition could delay consummation
until the tariff is disposed of.

He possessed in high degree those
