MORA CLAIM FINALLY PAID.
Now There is Prospect of Litigation
Regarding Its Disburse-
meNt.

Washington. D. c., Sept. 14.-Senor
de LONE. the Spanish minister, at noon
today delivered to Mr.. Adee, acting Sec
rotary of state. a draft for the equiva>
lent Of LAO. 900, drawn on the Spanish
financial agent in London, in settlement
of the Mora claim
There was no ceremony about the pro,
ceedings. They marked the close of an
international question that has dragged
along for twenty-siN years, giving rise to
fiery debates in the Spanish cortes ailt:
protracted committee inquiries in both
branches of our Congress.
Having settled the international feat
ure of the case. the state department
is now likely to encounter some difficulty
at home in disbursinS the money. Mucf,
litigation is threatened, as was evidenced
by the taking out of an injunction by one
of the assignees yesterday to restrain tho
state department from paying over all OF
the money to the claimant Mora. Dur
ing the years of the tendency of this
great claim. Mr.. Mora has been obliged
to make assignments of part of it. the
larger items being on account of legal
expenses. Some of these assignment.
have been recorded in the state depart
ment, but their number and aggregate
amount cannot be learned at present.
OF these the department must take Ito,
tice in settling To- claim. and it is proDa.
bic others are outstanding of which the
department has not yet been informed.

Jim" HILL GAINS 4 POINT.
No Temporary Injunction Against
the Northern Pacific Console
datiOn.

st. Paul, Mimi, Sept. 14.-The Great
Northern Railway company and J. 7.
Hill. its president, have won the first
preliminary battle in the contest precipi-
tated by Thomas w. Pearsall in his APP
plication for Il preliminary injunction
against the proposed consolidation of the
Northern Pacific and Great Northern
railroads. The decision was fled by
Judge Sanborn today. the court denying
the motion of Pcarsali, the complainant.
The next step win be to hear the case
on it's merits, for it must be tried accord
ing to the procedure vouchsafed to every
regular issue that comes before the court.
The case will be tried as q court case
before the Judge and evidence will he in>
trOduced by the court on behalf Of either
party, and another decision by the court
will be the end of that issue.
While this proceeding is a preliminary
one the victory is none the less an impor>
tant step towards the consummation
sought by President Hill. Thorough in>
vestigation of the subject WAS given by
Judge Sanborn and his deductions seem
to point to clear right to continue the
plan that has for so long occupied the at
tention of the business world. Judge
Sanborn says the final adjudication lies
with the Supreme court.

THE PARIS OVERDUE.
Rough Weather Has Been General
and no Fears Are Entertained
for Her Safety.

New York, Sept 1.-THE American
line steamer Paris. Capt. Watkins, had
not been sighted up to 11:3O this morn
ing. The Paris sailed from Southar '
ton on Saturday last, September Z, pass
ing the Needles at 1:35 in the afternoon,
and to have equaled her own record of
days 8 hours and 81 minutes, she was
due at Sandy Hook lightship at II min,
utes past yesterday afternoon. She il
therefore about seventeen hours behind
her record.
The Cunard line steamer Etruria,
which sailed from Queenstown on Sun
day last, the day after the Paris left
hampton, arrived this morning and
reported that on September IL at 2:3O
a. ma, in latitude 4S.44, longitude 39OS,
she passed an American line steamer
bound west. which was supposed to be
the Paris. The Etruria had a very
rough passage, encounter ng strong south.
west and northwest gales throughout the
voyage, and the Paris is no doubt having
the same experience, which would &C,
count for the delay. No anxiety is felt
for her safety, as she is as well known
to be a staunch vessel as Capt Watkins
is cautious navigator.
