JUDGE LACOMBE,S ORDER PUTS
MATTERS IN AN AWKWARD
POSITION.
N. P. BOOKS IN NEW YORK.
THERE IS ALSO CONSIDERABLE
MONEY THERE THAT WILL
BE NEEDED.
OBSTACLES FOR BIGEI,Ow.
Obligations That Cannot Be Met
Unless Judge Lacombe
Changes Front.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Oct. 5.-The
order of Judge Lacombe in the Unit
ed States court at New York, in re-
straining the former receivers of the
Northern Pacific from turning over
to their successors any of the moneys
or properties of the company within
his jurisdiction, is not apt to be
fully appreciated, but it is a most
important one, not only from the fact
that there is considerable money de-
posted in New York, but because
the books of the company are in that
city, and if the new receivers, espe-
cially Receiver Bigelow, who has
charge of the finances, are not to
have access to them, there will be
almost 1nsurmountable. obstacles to
overcome. There are two obliga-
tionS which must be met on Nov. /.
One is the interest on the mortgage
bonds of the Missouri division of the
road. This division lies wholly with
in Judge CaldwelPs jurisdiction, and
the amount due is over s57, 900, while
sinking fund charges to be paid on
the same day amount to something
over $4,000. But these amounts are
Insignificant in comparison with the
other obligation. Interest to the
amount of more than $500, 900 is due
on the collateral trust gold notes,
and it is imperative that this obli-
cation be promptly met. The col
lateral trust fund is one of the most
important that the receivers are
charged with looking after, and de-
fault in the interest would be almost
fatal to the interests of the bond
holders.

the stand. Fitzherbert, who was
looked upon as a certain winner,
trailed for half the distance, but
when he reached the club house he
spurted and passed Wade. Richards
then made q desperate effort to
catch the leader and closed on Lew
in rapidly in the last fifty yards.
Levin won by about two feet, while
Richards beat Fitzherbert by two
yards. Wade was, several yards in
the rear at the finish. 1t looked
Ike a dead heat, and when Lewin's
name was stated the Englishman
received AN ovation, as he broke his
own record by three-fifths of a sec
ond.
The last race was the 10-yard muir
die on the turf. The Englishmen
are much more at home over the
hurdles on the field, while the Amer
leans use the cinder path. When the
pistol shot sent the men off Hatch
and Cady, both Yale men, were seen
to be in the lead, which they main
tanned for more than half the dis
tance. Fletcher overlook Cady at
the eighth hurdle, but he was un-
able to reach Hatch, who made a
beautiful finish, beating Fletcher by
six feet, while Cady was nearly a
yard behind the Englishman- Hatch
beat his own record by two-fifths of
a second, notwithstanding that the
hurdling on the turf was new to
him. The crowd swarmed in on the
field when Hatch crossed the finish
line and he was carried to the club
house amid the cheers of the spec
tators.

adjourning shortly before noon to
hear the address of Hon. John w.
Foster at the Lyceum
In the two hours which the house
of deputies spent in business session
some very important matters were
put under way. No progress was
made in the way of constitutional
revision. The Biddle amendment to
the first section of Article l was on
the table when the house resolved
itself into committee of the whole,
and when the committee rose it was
still undiSpoSed of, with an amend
ment and a substitute attached to it.
The amendment of Mr.. Biddle at
tached to section 1, a provision
which is part Of Article III of the
present constitution, providing that
all legislation sent from the house
of bishops to the house of deputies
! must be returned in three days, with
! approval or disapprova1, and if the
latter, with the reasons for such dis
approval attached in writing; and
that in failure of such action, the
! measure shall have the full opera
! ton of the law. DR.. Harrison, of
Springfield, took the floor first, and
after asking for the reading of the
amendment, offered another amend
ment, extending the provisions to
both houses. E. T. Wilder, of Min
nesota, offered a substitute, insert
ing in the Biddle amendment the
words, provided, that as long as
the house of bishops holds it's ses-
sions with closed doors,'' etc, The
DEBATE WAXED WARM.
on this amendment, and several of
! the speakers wandered from the sub
stitute to a discussion of the entire
topic. Judge Fairbanks, of Florida;
DR.. Lindsay, of Massachusetts, and
DR.. John Fulton, of the Church
Standard all spoke against the
! pending amendments from one stand
! point or other, but before calling to
a vote motion to rise and attend
the Lyceum meeting, made by DR..
Elliott, Of Maryland, carried by a
vote of 157 to III, and the discussion
was dropped for the time being.
| Early in the session an attempt was
made to force an adjournment, but it
failed. The committee on admission
then made it's first report, through DR..
Richards, Of Rhode Island, the chair
man. The report favored the division
of three dioceses, all of which had on
Thursday presented memorials asking
for the division. Maryland, California
and Kentucky were so divided, and the
report was adopted in each case by
