Southern Pacific Has Difficulty in
Keeping It's Tracks Clear.


Sacramento dispatches say the scene in
the Sierras is one of surprising magnin-
cence. 1t seems as if the route of the
Central Pacific is laid through the line
of the greatest snowfall. With drifts

FIRE INTO THE CROWD.
Monday Day of Riot and BIOodshed

Violence and bloodshed marked the
eighth day of the Brooklyn electric street

men are in hospitals with broken heads,
two having suffered at the hands of riot
Gus men or women, while the other was
the victim of his own carelessness, hav-

A score or more of policemen are suffer
ing from bullet wounds or contusions Of

time being. TO what extent the strikers
have suffered cannot be conjcctured. If
they escaped punishment it was not the
fault of the militiamen, who, in accord
ance with orders fired as directly at their
assailants as dense fog, which complete
ly hid objects at thirty yards distance,
would permit. The strike is not ended
and order is not restored. The entire
force of 1000 soldiers. and all the police

OUTLOOK is POOR.
Big Revenue Deficit and More Heavy
Shipments of Gold.

Shipments of Gold.
X. c. Dun * Co.'s weekly review of
trade says:
There are some good signs, but they do
not as yet extend TO business generally,
which hesitates much as it has done for
months. Gold continues to go abroad,
$5,55O,000 having gone last week, and the
deficit of revenue is already over $9,J00,-
600 for the month. This state of facts,
with the failure of Congress TO make pro-
vision for borrowing or for increasing
revenue, still operates to retard whole
some recovery. The volume of domestic
trade represented by exchanges through
clearing houses is again about I per cent.
larger than last year, as ii was in the first
week of the month. but is 33.7 per cent
smaller than two years ago. higher rate
of decrease than for some time past.

To Beat the Government.

The first chapter in scheme involving
nearly $100,000,000 will open at Omaha,
whena petition will be presented to Judge
Sanborn, in st. Louis, for the foreclosure
of the first mortgage on the main line Cf
the Union Pacific Railroad. The petition
is supposed to have been prepared at the
instance of the trustees of the first mort
gage bondholdcrs in the Office of Winslow
S. Pierce, of New York. 1t is supposed
to embody the fact that as the accruing
Indebtedness of the company, due July !,
VIII be nearly $10,O00,O00, and the earn
ings are constantly decreasing, it is pro-
posed, in the interest of the first mort
gage bonds, that that mortgage be fore
closed. This mortgage represents about
So 900, 900, and the main line of the
road, which it covers, is not expected TO
sell for that amount. This will wipe out
all other Indebtedness including the Gov
ernment's claim of $33, $50, 900, which
will be dead loss.
