NO CONSOLIDATION.

Great Northern Merely Making Traffic
Arrangements with the N. p.
ST. PAUL, Aug. Ex-senator Davis
continued his argument in the Great
Northern injunction case in the United
States circuit court Thursday, occupy
ing the entire forenoon. He was fol-
lowed by G. A. Severance and E. P.
Sanborn for the defense. In closing his
argument Senator Davis referred to the
right Of consolidation granted by the
charter, and read from authorities as to
the meaning of consolidation in legal
sense. There had been a great deal Of
talk to the effect that what was pro-
posed was AL amalgamation of the two
systems, but this was not true. All
that was proposed was a traffic agree
ment for mutual advantage. Neither
road would lose its identity. But even
if one should be swallowed up by the
other there would be nothing illegal in
it, according to the terms Of the charter.

HARRISBURG, Pa, Aug. 29.-The Re-
publican state convention met here and
unanimously agreed upon the following
ticket:
State chairman-M. s. Quay.
State treasurer-Ben J. Haywood of
Mercer.
Superior court judges-James A..

Developed Into . 'Love Feast"
The convention, which started out
with every promise of being one of the
most exciting ever known in the state,
developed into Glove feast" and
wound up about as tamely as any ever
seen here.
The first battle between the factions
came on the election of temporary
chairman. The Quay candidate won by
a majority of 20, and after this the SEN
ator had his own way completely.
Although there was an outward indi-
cation Of harmony and forgiveness it is
said that this extends only to Governor
Hastings and his friends. Those on the
platform observed that Senator Quay
did not look at or speak to c. L. Magee,
David Martin and Senator Porter, the
men who have led the fight against
him, and it is predicted that the
wounds now partly healed will be opened
in a very short time.

LONDON, Sept. "A Dispatch from

have taken place at the palace on the
three successive evenings lasting until
midnight to discuss Armenia. It is re-

been asked to intervene, but declined
on the grounds that the porte had al
ready disregarded his advice to intro
duce reforms. Then President Faure

Cup Committee Formally Selects the

New YORK, Aug 31.-The third So
called trial race between the Defender
and Vigilant, which took place during
the day, was good deal of farce. The
Defender won over a course of 10 miles
to windward and return by Minis and
- Secs, when she could have passed the
finish line anywhere from s to 10 min
utes ahead of the Vigilant if she had
been sailed for all she was worth.
The Vigilant on the other hand was
sailed, as she always is, in the most
sportsmanlike manner. White caps ap-
peared here and there, but there was no
sea that could be called heavy, or even
choppy.

Governments Expenditures Greatly in Ex-
cess of Receipts.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 2.-The treasury
statement shows that the excess of ex-
penditures over receipts for this month
was but $3,69s, 103, as against deficit
last month Of 30, 800, 600. The customs
receipts are steadily growing, reaching
this month $l5 1888, O47, with total treas
ury receipts of $2S,952 1896. The aver
age expenditures Of the treasury are
about $50, 900, 900, and treasury officials
believe that for September receipts will
equal if they do not slightly exceed the
expenditures. Still, the best informed
treasury officials do not believe that the
receipts for the year will reach the ex-
penditures by $20,OOO,OO Last year
the deficit was 81, eco, 900, and the year
before $40, ZOO, 900.

AN INJUNCTION.ASKED
QUESTION OF NORTHERN PACIFIC
REORGANIZATION IN COURT.

StO~khOlder Pearsall of the Great North
eru Opposed to the Deal-Arguments
by Prominent Attorneys Before Judge
Ssnborn at st. Paul,
ST. PAUL, Aug. 29.-One of the most
important railroad law suits that has
been tried here in some time was begun
during the day before Judge Sanborn,
sitting in the United States circuit
court. It is the injunction suit of
Thomas w. Pearsall, a stakeholder in
the Great Northern railroad, to restrain
the officers of that road from carrying
through the deal for the control of the
Northern Pacific. As far as the direct
interests Of the parties to the action are
concerned the suit is not of material
consequence, but the final outcome is
expected to be 80 far-reaching in its ef-
feet and the public interest in the reor-
ganization scheme is so great that the
action becomes of the utmost import
ance. The public interest is shown by
the large number of leading attorneys
who are spectators at the hearing.
Asks an Injunction.
Pearsan is the holder of 500 shares of
Great Northern stock, the face value of
which is 800 per share, and he asks for
the injunction on the ground that his
interests are likely to suffer if the Great
Northern is permitted to guarantee the
interest ON the bonds of the Northern
Pacific, as the reorganization scheme
proposes. The Great Northern officials
have maintained that the suit was only
a friendly action to settle the legal diff
culties in the way of carrying out the
proposed consolidation, but the manner
in which the plaintiff and his attorneys
are fighting the case seems to prove the
contrary.
Attorney General Childs is an inter-
ested spectator from the jury box, being
present to look after the interests of the
state. President Hill himself is also
present, and seated all around are
number of leading attorneys of the city,
who drop in occasionally to watch the
proceedings.
The Argument Begun.
Attorney Kellogg read the answer to
the complaint in which defendant holds
that the contamination of the deal with
the Northern Pacific would result most
advantageously to the Great Northern
and would not depreciate the value of
the stock as plaintiff contends. At
torney Horn then began his address for
the plaintiff, going into the history Of
the roads at some length. He declared
the two systems were competitive lines
and the proposition to consolidate was
in violation of the statutes.
Colonel Grover followed Mr. Horn in
a brief statement Of the case for the de-
Tense, leaving the main argument to
Senator Davis The senator began
speaking just before adjournment and
the bulk of his argument was confined
to quotations from decisions i'll cases
involving points similar to those raised

Treaty With Indians Paramount to wy

WASHINGTON, Aug 31.-It has been
definitely decided by the Indian bureau
that no attention will be paid to the
game laws Of Wyoming where they
come into conflict with the treaty of the
United States with the Banncck and
ShoshOne Indians.
The attorney general, after consider
ing the matter, has informed the secre-
tary of the interior and the commission
er Of Indian affairs that the rights of
the Indians to hunt on unoccupied lands
in his opinion are unquestionable, and
that he considers that the State of Wy
oming has no power to limit this right.

opinion in the case Of the First National
