UNEQUAL CONTEST.
NORTHERN PACIFIC IN NO CONDI-
TIoN TO MEET COMPETE
TION.
so THE RECEIVERS REPORT.
NINE MILLIONS ARE NEEDED TO
PUT 1T ON AN EQUAL FOOT
ING.
EXPENSES ARE BEING REDUCED
Strikes, Floods and Endless Lit
ig;..i ton Interfere Seriously
with Operations.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Sept. 20
The general report of the receivers
of the Northern Pacific railroad
showing the condition of the proper
ty, which was ordered by Judge
Jenkins, was filed in the United
States court late this afternoon. The
report is a voluminous document,
comprising nearly forty pages of
printed matter, together with the
trial balance sheets and the rec
ords from the comptroller's office.
The report deals largely in gener-
alitieS, as it would be impossible,
the receivers say, to present de-
tailed history of their administra-
tion in SO brief a space. Tables are
adduced, however. to show that in
the two years of the receiVership
the operating expenses have been
decreased. The troubles of the re-
ceiverShip, embraced in the strike,
the conflicts with the COXeyiteS, the
floods and the endless litigation, are
pointed out. The receivers say fur
ther that the condition of the road
is not such as to enable it to COM
pete on an equal basis with its riv-
ais, and that to remedy this will re-
quire the expenditure of SO, ZOO, 900 in
the next five years.
AT the outset the report states the
condition of the road at the time the
receivers took hold. The total in
debtedness, including the mortgages,
nd hn ,o1
fixed charges $40, ,421 ,O25.96. For the
years ending June 80, 1894 and 1895,
the report states that the expendi-
lures under the head of mainte-
nance of way and structures We're
decreased 1927 per cent, while the
maintenance and equipment ex-
penseS were increased but &c per
cent. The expense of conducting
the transportation department has
decreased 1856 per cent The operat-
ing expenses for the year ended
June so, 1894, decreased $236, ,464. 80,
against a decrease of $251, ,745.75 for
1895.
The earnings for 1895 were ST.
434, ,9S0.S0, against 1854. .2O9. 81 the
year DeIOre. Inc operating eX-
penses for 1895 were 81, ,S19, ,6S2. Al.
against $11,S16,1 ,12O.17, while the net
earnings for 1895 were $6,115, ,29S. 80.
against $4,731. .OS9.34, the net earn
tngs per mile for 1895 being 81, ,360.32.
against $1,052.26.
MUST EXPEND MILLIONS.
During the next five years, the re-
port states, it will be necessary to
relay about $4,000 miles of steel rails
at cost of about $4,000. 900. IT
would be also advisable to continue
the replacing of temporary wooden
structures with permanent earth
fills or steel bridges. This will cost
about $3,600,0OO. Summed up. the
report continues, provision should
be made for extraordinary expendi-
lures in the next five years of So
100000, in order that the property
may be placed on an equal footine
with its rivals for economical oper.

SAM FRANCISCO, Cal, Sept. 20
The steamer Gaelic, which arrived this
morning from Hong Kong and Yo-
kohama, did not stop at Honolulu. She
brought eleven cabin passengers from
Hiogo, the worst infested cholera dis
trict in the Orient. No sickness was
reported on the trip across and no
alarm was felt by the ships officers.
Since last advices there has been an
increase of the cholera plague in the
Oriental ports. During the two weeks
preceding the sailing of the ship there
had been six deaths from cholera in
Hong Kong, fifty-one deaths out of
fifty-four cases at Nagasaki, 256 deaths
out of S29 cases at Hiogo, and twenty
seven cases, with nineteen deaths, at
Yokohama. After inspection by MEM
bers of the board of health the passen-
gers and mails were landed, and the
steamer returned to quarantine. The
postmaster today received instructions
from Washington, in response to his
suggestion, directing him to fumigate
all mails received from infected ports.
