Berlin. May 1S.-For the past four
days the meetings of the United Ger
man North Pacific committees have
been considering the proposals of Mr..
Adams, the representative OF the Deut-
sche bank Of Berlin. for the reorgani-
zation OF the Northern Pacific railroad,
and they have finally authorized him
to carry out his plan which the bond
holders will be recommended to ac-
cept. The first point of the Adams
reorganization plap is the foreclosure
of the old company and the formation
of new company, under special ar
rangemnts for this purpose.
Second-The new company is to is
sue shares to the amount of 800, ,O00,-
900 and a maximum of $500 000. .000 gold
bonds, free of taxation. A sufficient
amount OF these bonds is to be reserved
in order to. replace the present first
mortgage bonds later. and $1,000. 900
of bonds are to be reserved in order to
acquire the independent branch roads.
and for new construction. at a maxi
mum charge of $4,000 per mile. The
new bonds will be secured by a mort
gage lien on the whole Northern Pa
cific system. including the st. Paul and
Northern Pacific railway line. and will
bear interest partly at and partly at
per cent. all under the same mort
gage.
Third-The capital and interests of
the new bonds are to be guaranteed
unconditionally by the Great Northern
company by endorsing each bond, the
Great Northern receiving in return
half of the stock of the new company
Fourth-The board of directors OF the
new company is to consist of nine di-
rectors. four of whom are to be nomi-
mated by the Northern Pacific reorgan-
ization company.
Fifth-In accordance with this
scheme. there should be given for each
$4,000 Northern Pacific second mort
gage bonds a $1.125 new per cent
guaranteed bonds. and for a $1,000
third mortgage bond a $4,000 new 8
per cent guaranteed bond and at least
$3.50 in shares; c, for each $1,000 per
cent consol at least $500 3 per cent new
bonds and $500 in shares.
sixth-That the overdue coupons of
the second mortgage be paid in cash
at the rate of per cent annually
Those of the third mortgage are to be
paid at the rate of per cent and those
in consols are to be adjusted at the
rate Of 21z per cent in new per cent
bonds.
Seventh-The floating debt of the re-
ceivership is to be paid by the assess
ment of about $11, 100000 on the old
stock.
Eighth-The reorganization and the
raising of the necessary working capt.
al is to be secured by a syndicate
headed by Messrs. ]. Pierpont Morgan
md the Deutsche bank.

but shot from shelter whenever they
could see the suggestion OF a soldier
The position chosen by General Maceo
was strong. and he was able to place
his vastly superior force in secure
cover.
The Spanish authorities assert that
General Maceo actually had 5000. The
portion OF the Simancas regiment with
Lieutenant Colonel Bosch. the same
authorities say, numbered only 400.
After desultory firing had continued
the entire day, a detachment of vol
unteer cavalry formed In Guantanamo
by Major Garrindo made a vigorous at
tack on the insurgents. striking them
on the flank. This discouraged many
of Maceo's men. The Cubans seem un-
able to meet a sudden change in the
situation. This was shown at Christie
when the pilot engine at the head Of q
train of soldiers upset the insurKents'
plan of attack. Major Garrindo's
squadron drove the insurgents from
their sheltered position. infiicting a
considerable loss. A Spanish regiment
from Porto Rico which has Just arrived
at Santiago was dispatched In haste
to Guantanamo, Maceo's force, It Is
said. probably changing their base.
The loss of Lieutenant Bosch is unfor-
tunate for the Spaniards.

MR.. HILLS RETURN.


He Talks without Saying What He Has
Done or What He Expects to Do.
New York, May 1S.-Among the pas
sengers on the steamship New York.
which arrived this morning, was Presi-
dent Hill of the Great Northern rail-
road, who has been talked of very
much of late in reference to the pro-
posed control of the Northern Pacific
He said:
"The reorganization committee of the
Northern Pacific railway has a major
ity of each class of bonds and is ready
to push the reorganization of the road
quite vigorously"
Are the Great Northern people in
terested in the natter"
'I am one of a number of gentlemen
who are interested in the Northern Pa
cific reorganization, and our company
will be ready to do anything II can to
facilitate the matter. We shall be glad
to see the Northern Pacific reo-ganiza-
ton on a basis which can carry it's
financial burden. The three failures Of
the Northern Pacific. commencing with
Jay Cook, have marked three financial
crises, or panics, in America, and
think the placing of the company on a
sound financial basis, as at present
proposed, will do as much TO restore
the credit of securities at home and
abroad as anything that could be done
anywhere
'will the Great Northern take any
part In the reorganization?"
II am not prepared to say what the
Great Northern will do. further than to
state that you may depend on the
Great Northern looking out. to the best
of its ability. for its own interests. 1t
will be most glad to cooperate with
the bondholdeDs OF the Northern Pa
cific to secure the desirable results that
I have stated. and thus put that COM
pany on sound basis. don't care
to go into the matter any further at
this time" continued Mr.. Hill. for
reasons that must be apparent to
you"

the Thames yesterday with matches
under the auspices of the New Thames

ued with races to-day. The races,

TO the appearance of Hershofrs new

expected to make matters rather warm
In this class. The Importance OF the
match in the Leviatha class more es-
pecially would be small but for the
fact that the meetings of Ailsa and

be the boat TO contest in the Americas

Berlin. May 1s.-Things are once
more in chaotic condition In Germany.
The two chief government bills, anti
revolution bill and tobacco tax meas
ure. have been crushingly defeated,
and there is no talk of substitute
measures. 1t Is an open secret that
the views of Chancellor Prince Hohen-
Iohe and Prussian Minister of Interior
Herr Won koeller clash on most SUBJ
5ects of Importance. and the existing
situation cannot endure. The latter's
position is so shaken that his term Of
office may end any moment. Prince
Hohenlohe. who has been much wor-
ried for months past, offered his res
ignation Immediately after the defeat
of the ant.-revolution bill. but was
persuaded to remain in office on the
urgent solicitations OF the emperor and
his own family. Herr Koeller's hand
ling of the anti-revolution bill is con-
demned on all sides. hut he has dis
played a total disregard OF their dis
satisfaction. and in fact. strongly
urged before the council of state the
Introduction of another anti-revolu-
tion. bill. directed particularly at the
socialists. Prince Hohenlohe quietly
disproved his arguments and showed
the futility of continuing the fight In
the present reichstag. The chancellor
was supported in this contention by
DIR. MIGUEL. minister of finance: Baron
Marschall Won Bieberstein. minister of
foreign affairs. and DR.. Won Booths
Choir, imperial secretary of state for
the interior. while DIR. Schoenstedt,
minister OF justice, sided with Herr
Won Koeller. Prince Hohenlohe's
views also met with favor in the bun
dezrath. with the result that no new
anti-revolution bill or labor tobacco
tax bill will be introduced. and an
early closing of the reichstag session
is therefore expected. According to
anticipations the reichstag VIII ad-
journ at the end OF the month.
Members of the center party to-day
introduced a motion in the lower
house of the Prussian diet for the res
toration Of the clause IN relation to
tbe Christian church. repealed In 1868.
but only the Poles supported II. The
speakers of the remainder OF the par
ties declared themselves in opposition
to the motion and declined to enter
into its discussion. The bill was re-
jected.
The revenue officers having discov-
cred that American bacon has been
imported into Germany in large guam
titles under fraudulent declarations, a

been indicted at Cologne, Dusseldorf

THE PRESDYTERIANS
They Meet in Pittsburg and Do Much
Important Business.
IN REGARD TO sEMINARIEs
Hon. e. e. White and Others Make
Some Pertinent Suggestions
Which Are Acted Upon-An
Interesting Meeting.

Pittsburg. Pa. May 1s.-In the gen.
eral Presbyterian assembly to-day the
debate on the proposed assembly con-
troll OF theological seminaries connected
with the denomination was resumed.
Doctor Mckinney. whose speech last
night was interrupted by adjournment.
answering the objection that the plan
proposed will act as barrier to union
with the Southern Presbyterian church.
claimed that the church had taken
more extreme action than that now
under consideration. 1t was also
claimed that the plan was fully In ac-
cord with the policy OF the Presbyte-
rian church. and those who object were
characterized as super-spiritual advo-
Gates.
Hon. Z. f. White of Columbus, pres
ident OF the board OF directors Of Lane
seminary. asked the assembly TO come
TO clear understanding Of the condi-
ton OF affairs. 1t was urged that the
assembly had sent down overtures to
the seminary directors. and the an
swers that came back have been re
garded as final and conclusive, and
should be treated with respect. On the
contrary. the committee has asked the
assembly to accept their Judgment and
ment OF the directors OF seminaries
under advice of legal counsel thor
oughly acquainted with the facts This
was called a large contract"
After reviewing the positions of the
seminaries and showing the plan is i'm
practicable In regard to some, Judge
White urged that the matter be drop
ped. He asked what the cause OF the
distrust in the church had been and a
voice from the audience called out:
Union seminary"
Yes" replied the speaker. "and be-
cause Union did IL. therefore Princeton
must give bonds. but; for this reason.
discredit should not be thrown upon
the other seminary boards"
DIR. White stated there had been
changes in the constitution of Ohio
which makes an alteration in the SEM
mary charter impossible without af-
fecting all educational institutions In
the state. A strong objection was
made TO the appended statement of Dr.
Young made yesterday that no semi
nary is a Presbyterian institution
which cannot make changes proposed
by the committee.
Thomas MacDouga OF Cincinnati
was introduced as a member OF the
committee. Answering a question how
the conditions proposed by the commit
tee could be adopted by seminaries. he
cited the case OF the Omaha seminary.
whichhad put them into its articles
of Incorporation. He asserted the
funds of Union seminary in New York
are held under charter as free from
control of the courts OF the Presbyter-
ian church as the Standar oil company
Is. and any type OF theology can be
taught there which Is not repugnant
TO the laws OF the state OF New York
The general assembly was not a legal
entity. and can have no standing In
courts OF the country. unless the right
Is given by seminaries through changes
In charters.
After MacDougal finished the floor
was given to DIR. w. o. Thompson.
president OF Miami university at OK
ford, Ohio.
