Chicago. JAM 26.-The Union Pacific
has taken a stand that will cause the
other western roads no end of trouble,
and it is possible that a hot fight will
result between it and the lines in the
western trunk line committee. When
the agreement was formed it was the
understanding that the union should
make no demand for any of the Puget
Sound business. This was agreed to by
the Union Pacific and the rate sheets
We're made UP ON that basis. Now comes
the Union Pacific and, without a word
of warning. asks that it be given a
portion of the Puget Sound business;
the other roads will have no option but
to refuse the demand of the Union Pa
cific, as it was promised to the North
ern Pacific line, when that line came
into the agreement, that it Should have
the Puget Sound business. If the Union
Pacific begins any decentralization of
rates, it will have on it's hands about
the biggest fight that any road in the
country ever stood up against The
are in no way responsible for any de-
moralization if it should come, and
which is very likely to come, as the
Union Pacific has animated very
plainly that if it gets no share Of the
Puget Sound business, it will take
steps to prevent the advance in rates
which the other lines had agreed should
take effect on February Is.

fraught with serious consequences to
the republic and with results far reach
ing and in the end injurious.
In case of the failure of these plans
they suggest that the only alternative
would seem to be to refund the Union
racine DEBT Tor considerable period
of time, at a rate of interest COM
mensurate with the earning capacity of
the road.
This" says the report, 'fs the plan
which has the most favor with finan-
ciers and those who have given this
subject much attention"
AS to the period for which the debt
should be extended and with respect
to the rate of interest, no special rec
ommendation is made.
THAT" says the report, ''will be q
matter for future adjustment, when
the details of the plan shall be more
fully developed. AT present our recon-
mendations will be confined generally
to the matter of refunding of the debt
for such a period and at such rate
of interest as shall enable the COM
pany, under ordinary circumst ances
and business conditions, to meet the
current interest and a portion of the
principal Of the debt each year, SO that
at the expiration Of the period for
which the extension is granted the debt
may be wiped out. In this arrange
ment two plans have been suggested

fund and the payment into it IF a
larger share of the net earnings thar
are at present paid into it.

They Have come Back.

Douglas Hughey and BARNARD Van
Ander alias Bartlett, who started out
with Sheriff Mcdaniel for Pocatello as
his prisoners and came to the conclu-
sion not to go further than Ogden, re-
turned to this city yesterday and the
sheriff went on his way alone. The men
were wanted in Pocatello for forgeries
alleged to have been committed there
in conjunction with J. H. Walker, who
is now in Jail here awaiting the action
of the grand jury on a charge of for
gerry, alleged to have been committed
in Salt Lake. Sheriff Mcdaniel had no
Tequisition papers for the return of
Hughey and Van Ander. They agreed
to go back without the formality of a
requisition.. but changed their minds
when theyn got as far as Ogden and
refused to go any further and came
back to Salt Lake.

Superintendent Bancroft and D. E.
Burley, of the Union Pacific, returned
yesterday from a trip over the Short
Line
A 'Home Seekers !" excursion from
all points east will leave on February
Il, arriving via the Rio Grande/ West
ern. A rate of one fare for the round
trip has been made. The Western is
trying to get some additional dates in
March and April for these excursions,
and is demanding the same rates as
those made from Texas and the south
west.
Passenger travel was quite heavy
yesterday. Among those who went out
over the Union Pacific were Mrs. Z. B.
Wells. Mrs. Daniels, of Provo, and Mrs.
Aurelia Rogers, of Pennington en- route
| to Atlanta, Ca, to attend the Woman's
Suffrage convention. Captain Middle
miss took the same route for Chicago.

MORE DRIED FRUIT MOVING.

Another, and probably within one OF
the last, shipment of Utah dried fruits
was made yesterday AFTERNOON by zfon's
Cooperative Mercantile Institution.
consignment being made to st. Louis
and Chicago. The receipts of fruit from
the southern part of the territory hav-
ing been somewhat heavier during the
past week than was anticipated would
be the case it is more than likely that
still another shipment will be made
within the next few days. This will
make fourteen carloads of dried fruits
which have been sent out of this terri
tory during the past year and make the
1894 movements fully as heavy as were
those of the previous year, although
prices were not so satisfactory.
Tt is understood that there are still
some rather heavy holdings of fruits in
Utah county not under contract, but
the chances are these will be retained
at home and there consumed in prefer
ence to the imported.

AND SUBMITTED.

The territorial supreme court was in
session yesterday, an unusual occurrence
for a Saturday. Associate Justices
Smith, Bartch and King occupied the
bench while the chief justice worked in
the Third district court. Three cases
were argued as usual and taken from
under advisemenit.
The first was that of Warren Barn
hart, plaintiff and respondent, VS.: Cassie
Foley, defendant and appellant. The ap-
peal was from the Third district court,
Hon c. S. Zane, Judge. Attorney Saw
yer, of Putnam. appeared for the appel
liant and Sutherland & Howat for the re-
Spondents.
The appeal was from an order of the
district court overriding the motion OF
the defendant to dissolve an attachment.
The writ was issued TO the United States
marshal on September 6, 1893, recft1ng
the commencement of the action by
plaintiff against defendant for the recoy-
cry of $1,000, with Z per cent. interest
from June II, 1892 and commanding the
marshal to attach ali property OF the
defendant within his Jurisdiction not eX-
empt from execution. The return showed
a proper levy The ground upon which
the motion to discharge the writ was
based was that the affidavit for attach
ment, and on which the same was issued,
was untrue in certain particulars.

San Francisco, Cal, Jan. 26-A traffic
war is being Waged between the Pacific
Coast Steamship company and the
Meyer Aclzmann line, both owning
steamers which ply Between San Fran
cisco and Puget sound ports. The
Pacific Coast Steamship company has
reduced its cabin fares to Victoria,
Seattle and Tacoma to SIG a cut of $4,
and it's Storage rates were also reduced
$3.50. The opposition line met this cut
with a further reduction of 81, so thai
