sMACKs OF DISHONESTY.

The Union Pacific's Attem ut to Fore cl os o
the Gulf system.
OMAHA, Neb., Jan. 4.-There is more
general feeling prevalent among the
high officials OF the road that the Union
Pacific will be able 70 get possession of
the Denver and Gulf in the near future.
1t is we'll known fact that Receiver
Trumbull, of the Denver and Gulf, has
not asked that the interest on the con-
solidated bonds due In December and
January be paid, and in conse-
quence talk of foreclosure becomes of
significance at this time, in view of the
position the stockholders have taken
looking toward a united instead of a
segregated system.
An examination OF the annual report
shows that in 1891 the Denver and Gulf
failed to earn enough money to meet
the interest account by $466, ,069. "a,
and for 1892 failed to earn
interest charges by 1919. 9.454.90. These
amounts were made up to the Gulf COM
pany by the Union Pacific company
under the traffic agreement, which the
attorneys seem to consider not now
binding on the receivers of the Union
Pacific, and which, in consequence, re-
moves source of great revenue from
the Gulf people. With this traffic
agreement cancelled, as now seems
likely. Receiver Trumbull will be con-
fronted with problem that has
bothered wise heads for generations
how to get blood out of turnip.
About Union Pacific headquarters
there is a more contented feeling than
has been discernible for several weeks
past, and the officials will patiently bide
their time, willing to give Trumbull all
the latitude possible to realize the inter-
est charges above operating expenses.
DENVER, Jan. 4.-Ex-Governor John
Evans, when shown the Associated
Press dispatch from Omaha regarding
the Gulf system finances, said 1.-THE
idea of the Union Pacific attempting to
foreclose on the Gulf on account of its
own failure to pay coupons it contracted
to pay, moet certainly smacks of dishon-
esty. A contract to pay these bonds is
in effect, and we will show them so
when the court gets hold of the matter.
We will not only earn the fixed charges,
but much more, when we regain that
immense volume of business which the
Union Pacific admits in open court it
diverted from our system"

HAWAIIAN INQUIRY.

Professor Alexander Enlightens the
Senate Foreign Committee.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-The senate sub
committee OF the committee on foreign
Isiation5 resumed resumed investigation of the
Hawaiian situation this morning. Pro-
fessor Alexander was again the only
witness present, and his examination
was continued on the line begun yester-
day. He devoted much time to relating
the details OF the revolution of January
and explaining the active part taken
by the American minister and troops OF
the United States, and showed con-
clusively, to his own mind at least, that
the revolution was entirely independ-
ent of the official influence of this
country.
Senator Butler, who had not been
present at any previous meeting, was
especially interested in the narrative OF
Professor Alexander, and asked many
questions concerning the people of all
races on the islands. All were answered
to the apparent satisfaction OF the
senator.
The understanding now is that the
inquiry will be puahed to as speedy a
conclusion as possible in the interest OF
tnoroughness. 1t is possible that time
may be asked to send to Hawaii for wit
nesses, and it is limited that Jones, who
FASTENED away toward Honolulu the
afternoon of his appearance before the
committee, goes largely SIS messenger
OF the senate foreign relations commit
tee, to request the attendance OF persons
now on the ielands TO appear before the
committee. In that event the commit
tee will not be abls to report before
some time in February.

CHRIS EVANS MAY GO,

For Aught Wells, Fargo g. Co. Care About
Him Now.
San Francisco Report: Chris Evans is
not as valuable as he was before Hi Ra-
pelje used him as target. Then he was
worth several thousand dollars; but
now it is not probable that any price
will be set on his capture, should the
governor not offer reward. Detective
Hume, who returned from Fresno Sat-
urday night, said he did not believe
Wells-Fargo or the railway company
would offer any reward for Evans's re-
capture. They were already out about
$2O, ,OOO in expenses, and would leave it
TO Fresno county to catch Evans.
II think Sheriff Scott will make a
genuine effort to retake Evans" said
the detective. "He feels very badly
about the escape, which think was the
result OF carelessness and not collusion
with officers. l have no opinion as to
what Evans's future movements will be.
1t would not surprise me if he should
come to Fresno and take Mrs. Evans out
OF jail. The only thing in connection
with the escape that surprises me is that
Evans should have been 80 poorly pro-
vided with weapons on leaving the Jail.
There was nothing to prevent his hav-
ing pair OF Gatling guns. He was ac-
cessible at all times to everybody who
desired to visit him, and no questions
were asked. Whatever may be done to-
ward his capture, l am taking no more
interest in 1t. We gratuitously assisted
the law officers in running him down
once, though we were not in any way
bound to do 80. We are entitled to the
same protection as any other citizens,
and we will let the authorities furnish
US with it now."

Pterif. bv reiusine to vote to 20 into

tariff, BY refusing to vote to go into
5mmittae of the whole for considera-
/tion of the Wilson bill.
It is almost certain the Democrats
will have quorum present tomorrow,
but two days have been already wasted,
and this will probably necessitate the
extension OF the limit Of the debate be-
STesa January 18th. on which day the
programme contemplated final vote.
There is some talk of carrying out the
original programme to vote January
18th, and reducing the time for general
debate to four days and debate under
fve-minute rule to seven daye. With
this idea in view some Democrats, who
desired to speak, were asked il they
would consent to speak very briefly with
the privilege of extending their remarks
in the record, but several threatened to
vote against the bill unlesR they were
given an opportunity TO tell the house
in open session why they opposed it in
part or as q whole. It is likely that the
debate will be extended at least two
days to make up for the two days that
have been wasted. The committee on
rules will consider the question tomor-
row morning.
Although an order was passed yester-
day, recalling aD6enteeH, only 9S MEM
bsrs were on the floor when the house
was called to order.
Boutelle precipitated the Hawaii fight
by moving consideration OF his resolu-
tion thereon.
McMillin, on behalf Of the ways and
means committee, raised the question of
consideration.
Boutelle was sarcastic and McMillin
contemptuous in an exchange of shots
which followed. Finally. by rising
vote (58 to 124) the house decided not to
consider the resolution. The ayes and
nays were demanded.
A call of the house developed the
presence of 240 members. The vote
then recurred on the question of consid-
Grafton raised by McMillin against the
Boutelle resolution. The Republicans
again remained mute and again the
quorum disappeared, the Democrats
again mastering but $50 votes. This
time four votes were cast in the afir-
NATIVE.
After consultation the Democratic
leaders decided it was useless to con-
tinue the effort to secure quorum to-
day, and on motion of Wilson, at l 40
p. m, the house adjourned.

Democrats to Take Council on the
Tariff Bill.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-Chairman Hol-
man OF the house Democratic caucus has
issued call for q caucus tomorrow at 7
p. m. Forty-seven Democrats signed
the request for the call. The purpose OF
the call ia to consider the merits of the
tariff bill, and is accepted as the fret
open demonstration OF opposition to the
bill in its present form. No mem
ber of the ways and means COM
mittee signed the call. The internal
revenue feature and income tax
will receive consideration. Chair
man Wilson and his associates express
their willingness to go into caucus.
Wilson said his understanding was the
customs features and all other sectione
Of the bill will be considered. Many
Democrats deprecate the caucus, AS
they see in it prospects OF disagreea able
clash within the party.

The End of the Lesry Murder Case al

SALINAS. CAL, Jan. 4.-The case of the
People vs. W. NJ. Leary has at last been
disposed OF as far as the superior court
here is concerned. Leary was tried and
convicted of murder in the first degree
for killing NJ. Bonetti in September last.
The attorneys for the defense moved for
a new trial on the ground of errors in
the instructions by Judge Dorm to the
jury, and that the jury had secured and
read accounts of the trial from day to
day in daily journal. The argument
lasted three or four days, but the Judge
denied the motion, and Leary was asked
to stand up. Then Judge Dorm SEN
fenced him to be hanged at San Quentin
on March 30th, next.

masked men. The tram was stopped by
torpedoes being placed on the track and
red lanterns swung across the road in the
regulation custom. As soon as the train
stopped three robbers boarded the engine
with drawn revolvers and ordered the en-
gineeT and fireman TO accompany them to
the express car and order the express
messenger to open the door. This they
did, aud when the express messenger
opened the door the three robbers, with
reyolvers in each hand, entered the car
and the messenger was ordered to open

took all that was in the safe.
The amount, It is claimed By the rail-
road officials, did not exceed $50. This
statement is not credited here, however.
Tho trainmon think the robbers were
amateurs, as they were nervous during
tho affair and appeared much excited.
When the train stopped, n brakeman
went back TO flag the 81. Louis train fol-
lowing, and when several hundred yards
down the track he heard the shots fred
and saw tho train suddenly pull out. He
says the robbers entered the mail and ex-
