Opinions and Findings.

Omaha, July Especial Master Cornish
returned from New York this morning.
He filed a report in two Union Pacific
cases Edward Sheldon, attorney for the
Denver extension trustees, prayed on jan
uary rs for an order for the receivers to
pay certain interest on that roads bonds.
Judge Cornish heard the testimony and
filed a report asking that the petition
be denied on the grounds that there
was not sufficient funds to the credit of
that mortgage division to pay the inter-
est in default. The second report refers
to the non-payment of taxes on the Kan
sas City & Omaha road which has never
made operating expenses according to the
yearly reports. Taxes were due for 1884
in February and the bondholders filed a
prayer with the court calling upon the
receivers to pay the overdue taxes Judge
| Cornish denies the petition for the reason
| that he finds no funds available for the
| purpose as prayed for by the hondholders
Many other Union Pacific matters were
taken up, many of which reports will b'
| probably filed later on.
