Emphaticslly Denied.
SAN Francisco, Cal, October 16.-
e. p. Huntington denies emphsticslly
that the Vsnderbilts are negotiating with
him relative to acquiring a lease OF the
Central Pacific in order to use it with
the Union Pacific as an overland system
into this State and city. He further states
that he would not lease the Central Pa
cific to the Vanderb bilts or anybody else.
He wants to keep it as part OF his South
ern Pacific system. During converse
tion about the probability OF the Wander
bilts taking control Of the Union Pacific,
Mr.. Huntington said: "I would not be
surprised to hear of the Vanderb bits taxi
ing active management Of the Union Pa
cifc. They have plenty of money to en-
able them TO do 80 and are able men.
While i do not know II to be q positive
fact, understand they hold consider
able of the roads securities. They are
also supposed to be in control of the Chi
cago Il Northwestern. These facts may
or may not mean something. 1t is none
of my business, however, and / have got
work enough Of my own to attend to
without prying into other peoples affairs
The vanderbilts have not sought to lease
or get control o. the Central Pacific.
They have nothing 70 do with il and as
far es know do not wish the property.
am not anxious 10 part with the Central
Pacific. We have always been on good
terms with the Vanderbilts. II they get
the actual control of the Union Pacific l
see no reason why We should not be on
good terms with them. IL they want to
build into San Francisco that will be
their business, not mine. The Union Pa
ciio people have not asked US to come to
their assistance. IL they had we might
have endeavored to join them in some
scheme. That is all can say on the sub
ject."

TREASURY STATEMENT.
MEAT INSPECTION.
The Orders Are Postponed to January
4, Next.

An order from the Custom House re-
curing the inspection and marking OF
meats and live cattle which was to go
into effect on September II and was post
poned to October 16 is again put off till
January /, 1896.
This order was issued from the Depart
ment OF: Agriculture and pertained to
the meat inspection before leaving United
States ports for foreign export. Any
vessel having meat on board not inspect
ed and marked will be refused clearsge.
The reason Of the postponement OF the
order is to prevent the breaking of con-
tracts already made for the expectation
OF inspected meats, the identity of which
has been lost in the process of curing.
Also to enable the inspecting force to be
enlarged.

Lumbermen Of the Mississippi
valley confidently expect a better
price for lumber than they have
been receiving for the past few
years. Michigan used to be quite
a competitor in the Southwestern
market, but her cut sdecreasing,
and greater proportion is going
to the Middle states. Duluth and
other lake ports are now shipping
largely east, and the mill men of
the Mississippi are having less
competition in the West and
Southwest. With good crops in
all that district the demand will
largely increase, and the lumber.
men are apparently correct in be.
lieving that natural courses will
make better markets and better
prices. The late season at which
many mills started, and the failure
Of drives on small streams to get
out, will result in decreased cut.

A St. Paul preacher expresses an
opinion that the increasing en-
ployment of women in business is
national peril. He argues that
the women take the place of men,
and the latter have their salaries
reduced, that the men who are dis.
placed are unable to support fam
lilies; that the women who get
good jobs don't want to marry, etc.,
etc., till the people are not marry
ing fast enough to save the country.
It is cited that there were less
weddings in St. Paul in 1894 than
there were in 1884. Whether the
preacher was considering one of
his own sources Of income when
he formed his conclusions as to
the gloomy outlook, a perusal of
his remarks does not reveal.

Many complaints have been
made that the last executive agent
of the game and fish commission,
w. P. Andrus, left his accounts
in such shape as to encourage a
doubt about everything being
straight. He gave no satisfactory
report as to receipts and expend-
itures, and an investigation of his
conduct of the office will be made.
The commission has received q
good deal of abuse on account of
the methods of Andrus. The

Breyton Ives, the president of

will resist the reorganization plans
of J. J. Hill, and he will certainly

the courts, it may he that Hill
doesn't need their consent in the
deal he is manipulating.
