BIG FORECLOSURE SUIT.
Five Million Dollars the Amount In
VOIyed,

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 15.-One of
the largest suits ever instituted on the
Pacific Coast was flied late this after
noon IN the United States Circuit Court.
The Farmers Loan and Trust Com
pany seeks to foreclose mortgage ex-
ecuted py the Oregon Improvement
Company of Portland in 1889 for $15,-
0tN.s~},, tnolgh the amount actually in
volved is only a little over $5,0000OO.
When the institution of the suit be-
came known it created intense excite
ment in railroad and financial circles. 1t
has been generally understood for some
months past that the Oregon Improve
lnent Company was in a bad way finan-
ciaily, but on the other hand it was be-
lieved they would pull through.
The present litigation arises from a
mortgage executed by the defendants
in 1880 for $1,000 600 to cover bonds for
a like amount, and which We're guaran-
ieed by the Farmers Loan and Trust
Company. The bonds in question We're
1900 in number. of q par value Of 81 900
each, with 6 per cent. interest, the same
payable semi-annually.
The mortgage given by the improve
ment company included 1864 shares of
the Seattle Coal and Transportation
Company and the stock of the Columbia
and Puget Sound Railroad Company,
that corporation being owned entirely
by them. In addition to this, the mort
gage embraced all property owned by
the defendants, including sundry rail-
roads contemplated and the franchises
herewith.
In 1889 the Oregon Improvement
Company desired to refund the first in
debtedness of So,000,00O, issuing for
that purpose bonds to the extent of SD
oO0,UO0, with interest payable under the
same conditions as the original execu-
ton. After paying off the mortgage the
balance of the sum realized was to be
used in building new roads, extensions,
and such other improvements as the
Board of Directors deemed proper.
These bonds were in turn indorsed by
the Farmers Loan and Trust Company,
the old mortgages being renewed, such
other property as was owned by the
company being included
On June /. 1895, the Oregon Improve
ment Company defaulted in the semi
annual interest, and again in December.
Formal demand was made for the
money, but all the New York company
received was promises. In June of the
present year the defendants defaulted
in payment Of interest for the third
time. wfereupon the Farmers Loan and
Trust Company determined to institute
q suit for foreclosure.
The first suit was accordingly begun
in Oregon in July last, and now the
surety company covers the entire situa-
ton by instituting proceedings here. 1t
is alleged in the complaint that the Ore
gon Improvement Company is insolvant.
hence the desire on the part of the
plaintiff TO foTeclose the mortgage.

WRECK INeCOLORADO.
The Engineer and Fireman Killed and
Many Passengers Injured.

PUEBLO (Col), Aug. 15.-The second
section of train No. l, west bound, Den
Yer and Rio Grande, was wrecked eight
miles west of Pueblo about l o'clock this
afternoon. The special was made up
of an engine, day coach and three tour
ist sleepers, and was occupied by party
of Judson excursionists, who came in
this morning over the Missouri Pacific
and Rock Island roads. The train con-
tanned about seventy passengers.
Near the little station of Vegas, the
entire train left the track, and the en-
gine turned completely over. Engineer
Charles f. Davenport of Pueblo, aged
40 and Fireman William F. Reppert
of Burlington, Ia, aged %, were ms
family killed. Davenport has a wife and
four children in this city. Reppert was
unmarried. About twenty passengers
were injured, but none seriously, the
injuries being confined mostly to bruises
and cuts.
1t is the opinion of railroad men here
that the accident was caused by spread
ing rails, due to the intense heat. This
has been an extremely hot day in this
vicinity, and the thermometer has reg
sitered 102 degrees in the shade.

CHICAGO, Aug. 15.--Chairman Han

Before leaving Mr.. Hanna said to a

ports / have received within the week

INDIANAPOLIS. Aug. 15.-The In

kind in the world, employing | 800 men
when running full handed, shut down
to-day until after the election. Charles
F. Smith. President of the company,
said in giving reasons for closing:
The uncertainty of the future is a
sufficient cause. We have half a mil
lien dollars out now, and we want to
know what we are to realize on that
before we put more money at the pres
ent value into stock.
1T is ordinary business sense, and not
politics, that causes us to suspend work
until we know what the result of the
election is to be. We cannot risk in
further manufacturing until our none
tary contest is settled. If it is deter
mined to maintain the soundness of the
present value of our money at the polls,
those who are boarding it will let it go
