In another house that we visited, also

CENTRAL PACIFIC OCTOPUS.
How it Holds the West in It's Deadly
Embrace.

Washington, June 1.-THE House COM
mittee on Pacific roads gave hearing
today to the Californians who are OPP
posed to refunding the debt of the
Central Pacific. Ex-Cengressman c. G.
Sumner said he protested, for the peo-
pie of California, against any fusing
scheme which would perpetuate the
present management, one which had
brought deplorable moral, political and
financial calamity upon that state. He
went into an exhaustive history of the
road, and declared it's cost had not ex-
ceeded $30,000,O00. Stanford. Hunting
ton, Hopkins and Croker had not been
worth 100000, all told, in 1861, and in
1863. when the road was finished, they
were worth ten millions each. Croker
had resigned from the directorate to
make construction contracts with the
others. Eight per cent. of the enormous
dividends had gone into the pockets of
Stanford, Croker, Hopkins and Hun
tnigton.
Mr.. Sumner explained the California
law, which makes stockholders respon-
sible for the debts of a corporation.
Representative Mcclure explained
the statute of limitations of California
did not apply to the government
Representative Boatner, of Louisiana,
repeated a statement made to him re-
GENTLY by President Huntington, that
he Huntington had never had more
than four or ten shares of Central Pa
ciffc stock, his stock being in the
finance and construction company.
Mr.. Summer held that it was mot
necessary for the government to take
control of the properly, suggesting that
1.-THE road might be turned over to the
holders of the first mortgages 1t was
probably true. he admitted, as Presi-
dent Huntington had said, that the
present traffic rates could not be re-
duced without impairing the value of
the property, as it had ito pay per
cent per annum ON an Indebtedness
double it's cost and three times it's
present value.
Mr.. Summer said Mr.. Huntington has
admitted having spent over a million
in past congresses for legislation. Incl
denGally, Mr.. Sumner charged that the
Central Pacific had corrupted judges.
! legislatures and had debauched the
politics of California.
| Representative Geary said he could
not subscribe to the charges that the
| judiciary of California. was debauehatl.
II do not mean to make wholesale
charges against the judiciary" respond
ed Mr.. Geary, "but l have challenge
from legislator from my own state,
land I accept it. l say the Central Pa
cific has corrupted judges, juries and
Legislators of California -
Representative Geary spoke briefly in
favor of a foreclosure of the mortgage
by the United States. Hopkins and
Croker had long since been dead, he
said, and it was question whether the
government could recover anything
from their estates. If the right of ac-
ton did not mature until the debt ma
ltured. there could be no action against
the Stanford estate until some Of tbs
bonds matured, and there was no mon
ley forthcoming to pay them. Mr.
lGeary said he did not wish to appear a:

Sir Walter Won.

New York, June 1.-THE chief interest
of the day at Morris Park was the
meeting of Sir Walter and Banquet at
a mile and a half. The result might
have been different had the boy on St
Anthony been able to keep him from
boiling, for he had clear lead of fif-
teen lengths, when the four horses
turned into the stretch, and it was a
big lot of ground to make up, as he
was running strongly when he made a
rush for the opposite side of the track
Sir Walter won finally by a scant
length from Banquet, who had been
driven with whip and spur for more
than a furlong, and stood it gamely.
There was an upset in the Ladies'
stakes for three-year-old FLIES at a
mile and a sixteenth Kentigerna, the
favorite, running third.

Viennese Artillery Put to Flight By
HaiistOnes.
Vienna, June THE worst hailstorm
that ever visited this city commenced
at o'clock this morning. Dense cop
per-colored clouds rose with alarming
rapidfty. The wind drove the dust in
columns to the height of four-story
houses. Then the hail began to fall,
and covered the city in a short time to
the depth of from six to eight inches
In less than fifteen minutes, the city
looked as if it had been bombarded. 1t
is estimated that 100000 windows were
broken. Five hundred panes of glass
were broken in the ministry of COM
merce building alone, and 600 in the
palace. In the upper floors of the en-
perorS wing of the palace hardly
pane remains unbroken. The hailstones
averaged the size of hazel nuts, and
descended in the streets with tremen-
dous force. Three deaths are reported
as due to falling trees.
Horses were frightened by the storm
and ran away, causing numerous ac-
cidents. Serious damage was done in
a field outside of Vienna, where a de-
tachment of artillery, with thirty-two
guns, was overtaken. The horses bolt
ed with fright in all directions and
thirty soldiers were thrown helpless up
on the ground. Several of them were
run over.
One was killed and three officers were
severely injured. The beautiful gar
dens of the city are ruined and tele-
graph and telephone poles were blown
down and the wires are stretched on
the ground like huge cobwebs, causing
death to thousands of birds. 1t is
feared that great damage has been
done to crops
Reports from Bressburg show that
place was also visited by disastrous
hailstorm, and vineyards We're almost
ruined. Violent storms have occurred
during the week at different points,
and immense damage is reported to
have been done.

teresting only from the fact that
favorites failed to even show. Caprivi
won handily by three lengths after an
