ANOTHER BIG HITCH.
Minority BondhOlderS Make a
Protest in the N. P.
Cases.
THE RECEIVERS OPPOSED.

HOVE OF THE IVES FACTION,
Which the Loan and Trus
Company Syndicate Will
Vigorously Fight.

MINIATURES. Oct. TO- Another big
among the owners of bonds of different
classes of the Northern Pacific Railroad
company. This morning Clerk Kurtz.
of the United States court. re-
ceived from Chicago two bulky
petitions which had been presented
to Judge Jenkins by committees
representing the second and third
mortgage bondholderS. the allowance
of which will be vigorously contested by
the Farmers Loan and Trust Company
of New York. 1t is not believed that
the receivers of the company will make
any active opposition 10 the petitions,
although they are undoubtedly The re-
suit of the concerted action of minority
bondholders who are friendly to the
Ives side of the \. =. controversies.
This is the situation: The Farmers
Loan and Trust company has acted as
the trustee OF the first, second. third
bonds. 1t is also trustee for large
amount of colaterals on which loans
were made, and is besides creditor OF
the company. The interest on
the S4O,OOO,oOO fist mortgage bonds
has been paid, but default
has been made on the in tsr-
est of the other bonds. Naturally
interests of the different bond issues
are conflicting, and committees repr =
senting some of the owners of the 5, .
Ond ana third mortgage bonds now ask
to be made defendants, so that their
interests may, as they think. be properly
looked after. Owing to the conflict OF
the various Interests represented by the
Farmers Loan Il Trust company, they
believe that is impossible that their i'll
terest should be properly looked after
by the trust company.
The petitioners object to the graft ng
to the receivers of the power to sell or
redeem any of the securities to be de-
posted as collateral to the certificates.

HOGAN AND GOODWIN HERE.
Men Who Gained Fame in Strike
Matters.

Men Who Gained Fame in Strike
Matters.
There arrived in this city yesterday
two gentlemen, the name of one of
whom. particularly, was very prominent
throughout the Northwest not many
months ago. These were James Hogan
and r. NJ. Goodwin, directors of the
American Railway union. 1t was
Hogan who was chiefly instrumental in
starting the Great Northern strike.
They have not been here since that
noted event. These two have been
working in the interests Of their Organi-
cation in the East. on the Pennsylvania
lines. They both left last night. Mr..
Goodwin went west over the Cheat
Northern. Mr.. Hogan will 90 out on
the line of the Union Pacific. They
ate that the A. r. U. is now working
on different plan than formerly. Now
those desiring to join can do SO directly
through the headquarters of the organi-
cation at Chicago. rather than through
the local branches.
Messrs. Goodwin and Hogan were not
disposed 10 talk much about the present
status of the A. r. u, though they ell
phatically stated that it is stronger
than ever" They acknowledge that
they have learned some valuable les
S onS from their recent experiences.

Entitled to n Pardon.

Many anecdotes of General Sam Hous-
ton are told which show that his tongue
was by no means slow or his wit dull. As
General b had been financial agent
to the penitentiary for number of years
and warmly opposed General Houston's
last election as governor of Texas, he
feared he would lose his desirable Office.
He therefore presented petition in due
time, asking that he might be retained,
his "long and faithful services" being
urged as reason for granting the request
of the petitioners.
SIT appears from this petition, general, Z"
said the governor, THAT you have been in
the penitentiary eight years"
"Yes, sir"
Sand you say that you have performed
faithfully each and every duty imposed
upon you during that timer"
"Yes, sir"
"Then, SIR" said the governor, with q
twinkle in his eye, sit seems to me ought
to pardon you out. "-Youth's Companion
