PROPOSED REORGANIZATION.
D Pacific Railroads Committee Listen
to Arguments.

Washington, May To-day the ses-
sion of the House committee on Pa
cific railroads was given up to hear
ing on behalf of the reorganization
plan of the Union Pacific in consid-
Grafton of the payment of the debt of
that road to the United States. These
gentlemen were present at the meet
ing: A H H. Boissevain, of Holland;
T. H. Coster, of New York; Colonel L.
VI. Higginson, OF Boston; Louis Fitz-
gerald, OF New York; S. Carr, of Bos-
ION, members of the reorganization
committee; F. L. Stetson, w. Simpson
and Victor MorrowetZ, counsel OF re-
organization committee; 0. W Mink,
z. r. Anderson, F. r. Coudert and
Mr.. Doan, receivers, and S. H. H
Clark, president Of the company.
Mr. Boissevain, of Holland, repre-
senting the holders of Union Pacific
securities in that country, first adj
dressed the committee. The interests
he represented believed that prompt
action was necessary and imperativ
so that the reorganization committee
would not have TO wait too long be-
fore beginning its work. He could
not endorse the proposition in the at
8orney- generals bill concerning the
Men proposed to be given to the gov
eminent in the reorganization state
I7lent, and said that he thought the
branch lines should be left out Of such
Zen. Mr.. Boissevain said he repre-
sented between $50 000,00 and $40 000,-
900 Of the company's securities. Mr..
NorrawetZ, one Of the counsel for the
REORGANIZATION, said the counsel for
the committee were not entirely salts
fed with all the provisions submitted
by tie attorney. One was that max
ing appeals to the District OF Column
lJia. tribunal for settlement of litiga-
ton arising as a possible result of the
proposed legislation. Mr.. Morrowitz
submitted the form Of bin which
had been prepared by the reorganiza-
ton committee, and which he said
was identical with the bill prepared
BY the encouragement, with the eX-
ception of section 8, which provides in
detail for the manner in which fore
closure proceedings shall be taken in
case Of default in respect of any obi
cation or condition for which any lien
now exists in favor of the United
States upon any property OF the COM
pany.
Following Mr. Morrowetz, the COM
raittee heard statements from number
of members of the reorganization COM
mfttee and counsel. during which the
history OF the steps taken to bring
about the reorganization was gone over.
There seemed to exist in their minds
the belief that the extending of the
government lien over the entire sys-
fem of the Union Pacific as proposed,
would prove a serious obstacle to the
carrying out of the plan Of reorganiza-
ton.
The committee adjourned until to-
morrow when counsel for the Central
Pacific will appear.

THE POOLING BILL.
1t Is Reported Back with Some I'M
portant Amendments.

1t Is Reported Back with Some I'M
portant Amendments.
Washington, May 1.-The sub-com-
pittee on interstate commerce, con-
sisting of Senators German, Camden
and Cullom, to which was referred the
bill to permit railroad pooling, today re-
ported the bill back to the committee
with important amendments.
By one of the amendments, that por-
ton Of the bill authorizing the inter-
state commerce commission to issue an
order requiring that a pooling contract
between railroads, which, in the opinion
of the commissioners are unreasonable
rates, or unjust determinations, be
modified and giving the commission
power to enforce such order is stricken
out and a substitute suggested instead
/ of this provision, which provides that
such an order shall be made only after
/ inVestiga ton. Instead of giving the
commission the authority to proceed to
enforce the order, the amendment au-
thorizes an appeal to the circuit court
of the United States, either by the COM
mission or any person interested. The
court is authorized in such cases to
grant a temporary injunction and is
required to hear and determine the mat
ter as speedily as possible, giving it
priority over other BUSINESS of the
court. An appeal to the United States
Supreme Court is also provide for. A
new section is proposed to the inter
state commerce act as follows:
That a common carrier affected by
any recommendation, decision or order
Of the commission, may at any time
make applicat ton for a rehearing of
the same, or any matter determined
therein, and it shall be lawful for the
commission, in &ts discretion, to grant
such rehearing if sufficient reason
therefor be made to appear by such
! carrier. No such application shall ex-
cuse any carrier from complying with
or obeying any recommendation, decis-
/ ion or order of the commission or oper-
ate in any manner to stay or postpone
/ the enforcement thereof, without the
/ special order of the commission, and if
IN their judgment, after such rehear-
ing ii shall appear that the original
recommendation, decision or order are
IN. any respect unjust or unWarranted,
! the commission may reverse, change
or modify the same accordingly. Any
order made by the commission sus-
/ pending in any respect its original de-
termination pending a rehearing, and
any recommendation or order after
such rehearing. reversing, changing or
modifying its original determination.
shall operate to suspend, reverse,
change or modify accordingly any
! judgment, decree, order or proceeding

lnal determination, but shall have no

extraordinary occurrence

shoulder and right hand.
Chief Engineer Mcclure interfered
and was wounded seriously in the leg.
Ng Buck then rushed Wiciously at a
fellow passenger, Lee Shong, and
nearly severed his head from his body.

Queen Victoria was asked to pur-
chase the necklace, earrings and

jewels which had belonged to Mary.

clined, as Queen Mary was rot one of

portrait Of Charles II. came into the

refused, and then an elaborate mem

which. the reasons for buying the pie

MoUNET-SULLL
The French Tragedian Spends Most
of His Time in New York
Restaurants.

Mounet-Sully, the French tragedian,
plative air He is not profoundly de-
voted to rehearsals, and he spends
much of his time during the day in
such restaurants as Delmonico's, the
Brunswick, the Hoffman, or the St
James hotel, sitting near window and
gazing pensively at the passersby.
Few people look al him second. time,
and he is never taken for an actor by
and dresses with great simplicity Like
most French actors, he is very shy of
drinking and smoking. Usually mem
bers of the French colony seek him out
in the afternoon and attempt to make
his stay in New York agreeable, but
Mr.. Mounet-Sully has not the interest
in the new world that Coquelin for in
stance, always displays. His recent
tours under Mr.. Graus management
shows the ups and downs of theatrical
managers. In order to bring the great
French tragedian to America, it was
necessary for Abbey and Grau to en-
gage him for a number of months
though they wished to present him
only two or three months in this coun-
try. They mapped out a tour through
Europe for him, and a short season in
London. In figuring it out, they de-
cided that the European tour would
not be profitable on account of the
heavy travelling expenses and the an
tagonism of the Germans and Austrians
to French artists. But they looked for
a very great pecuniary success in Lon
don. The result exactly reversed this
expectation. The London season was a
fiat failure, as the English did not like
Mounet-Sully's violent style, while the
tour on the continent was the most
successful, from a pecuniary view, that
the French tragedian had ever made

BoNDHoLDERs NOT SATISFIED.
O. r. & n. Bonds May Be Foreclosed

Omaha, May 1.-The Bee will say in
its railroad column tomorrow morning,
that there is an extreme probability
that the interest on the Oregon Railway

This will bring about foreclosing pro-
ceedings.
This is based on information privately
received concerning the nature of the
report made by the representatives of
the foreign bondholders of the Oregon
Railway & Navigation company, Messrs.
Daugherty and Cook. These gentlemen

dedication of the December interest,
so that foreclosure proceedings may be
begun Immediately.
There is good reason for stating that
a petition will soon be filed in the cir

ceivers pending the foreclosure of the
mortgage on the Oregon Railway &

Every effort, both on the part of the

the mines, but in vain. The Centralia
miners admit that they are satisfied
with the work and pay, but the infiu-
