SHORT LINE TANGLE
The Union Pacific Is Making a
Hard Fight.
MATTERS ARE COMPLICATED
An Appeal From Judge Gilbert's Order
Concerning the Issue of Re.
ccivers' Certificates.

Portland, Or, June 15.-As the Ore
gon Short Line recevership case pro-
crosses it becomes more entwined with
legal technicalities. Yesterday Mr..
Snow who Is one of the attorneys of
the Union Pacific receivers, secured an
order from Judge Bellinger permitting
an appeal from the decision of Judge
Gilbert concerning the issue of certifi-
Gates to the amount of $764, 1886 by the
consolidated mortgage bondholders of
the Oregon Short Line and Utah
Northern company. This would have
sent the case to the court of appeals at
San Francisco, but after Judge Bellin-
gen had given the order yesterday he
revoked it. remembering that he had
promised to permit the attorneys for
the separation to argue the question.
Mr.. Snow came into court this morning
to again move for an appeal. Senator
Dolph was on hand for the American
Loan and Trust Company and the two
came together In very spirited argu-
ment. Judge Bellinger took the matter
of appeal under advisement.
The Union Pacific did not desire to
appeal to the circuit court of appeals
from Judge Gilbert's order appointing
Egan receiver, for this would be an ad
mission that the American Loan and
Trust Company could appeal from
Judge Merrltt's order appointing Mr..
Bancroft, so the Union Pacific is en-
deavoring to get the case into the cir
cult court of appeals on the question Of
receivers certificates.

A Tiny Book.

One of the smallest books that have
been printed has just been published
in Paris. 1t is the story of Perraut,
Little Hop O. My Thumb. There are
eighty pages of printed matter and
four engravings. The book Is thirty
eight millimeters long, twenty-eight
wide and six thick, and its weight Is
only five grammes. The little volume
is a complete book in every way, the
binding being perfect, the pages duly
numbered, and the title page appear
ing with all the formality of the most
dignified volume, The pages can only
be read by the use Of a microscope, but
then it is found that the printing is
clear and that the prOOf-reading has
been excellently done. Several men IN
France are carrying these volumes in
side their watch covers. A copy pre-
sented to a French library has been
duly entered in the catalogues and
placed on the shelves.

AMERICAN STREET RAILWAYS.
Immense Sums Invested in These
Meaus Of Urban TRANSPORTATION.

Immense Sums Invested in These
Means of Urban transportation.
The great Importance Of the street
railway interests Of this country Is
shown In a striking manner by some OF
the statistics. While incomplete, the
figures are believed to be accurate with
In psr cent and are surprising In many
respects. New York has the greatest
amount Of track, 1858 miles, or more
than In all New England. Ponnsylva-
mia comes next, with 1,422 miles; then
Ohio with LOTT miles, Massachusetts
with 900 miles and Illinois with Dol
miles. The order of States arranged
with regard to the number OF cars Isl
New York, 0,115; Illinois, 5,0l0; rem
sylvania, 4,021; Massachusetts,, 3,o9o;
and Ohio, 1854. But this order Is en-
tirely changed when the number OF car"
per mile of track is taken into consider
alton, for on this basis Of arrangement
the District of Columbia heads the list
with $40, followed by Illinois with O.lZ,
New York with $40, Missouri with 4.64
and Massachusetts with 4.O2. The great
est capitalization per mile of track Is
Sill, 200 in New York 1t is $S1, 700 in
Pennsylvania, $73,4O0 in Rhode Island,
$4,000 in Illinois and SOS, 100 in Louis
lana. The funded debt per mile of track
Is largest in New York, where it is $685.
700, and other high figures are $72, 400
In Rhode Island, $61, 800 in New Jersey,
S5S,S00 in Illinois and $51, 800 In both
Missouri and Maryland. The total cap
ital liabilities per mile of track are
1907, 100 in New York, $146S0O in
Rhode Island, $129,40 in New Jersey,
S12S,500 in Illinois, $116,T00 in Missouri
and $113, 400 in Louisiana. The banner
States in the matter of capitalization
are Mississippi, Florida, South Dakota
and New Hampshire, whose combined
capital stock and funded debt amount
to less than $4,000 per mile of track,
while enormously valuable metropOli-
tan properties in New York naturally
give that State its leading position

Advertising is not an outcome Of mod,

collection of old Greek advertisements
printed on leaden plates. The Egyp-

An Upright Man.

There is certainly some slight fe ceiling OF
humiliation in being bent down and obliged
to creep along for fear of snap in the
spinal column. 1t is such a plain show of
dlscrepitude that we feel embarrassed. 1t
is seen every day when lumbago takes a
good hold on a stitch in the back. There is
very little sympathy for one in such q
plight, for it is so well known that st.

neglect is the cause of so much disability.
Why not keep the remedy always on hand
