HARE AND BANHOLZER
Expected Appointments to the Board
of Public Works Made.

Mayor Smith made the expected ap-
pointments to the board of public
works yesterday when he named Aid.
Robert Hare and William Banholzer
to succeed Commissioners Fairchild
and Warren. The appointment of Aid.
Hare was a settled fact two months
ago. but it was the mayors original
erode. The latter. however, notified
his honor last Saturday that he did
not desire the appointment, and &C
cordingly the mayor gave the place to
Mr.. BanholZer. Mr.. BanholZer has
served in the common council, and
was once a candidate for city treas
urer, but was defeated by Conrad Mil
Ter.
Robert Hare was elected alderman
of the Sixth ward at the last city cleo
ton, and has served in the board of
aldermen for over tWenty-one months.
During that period Aid. Hare has Ia
bored earnestly and honestly in behalf
of his constituents in particular, and
the laboring classes in general. The
records will show that the alderman
has never absented himself from a
single regular meeting, or, for that
matter, from any of the special meet
ings. He has been equally faithful in
his attention to committee work, and
has, in fact, manifested the closest in
terest in municipal affairs.
1t would be an eXaggeration to say
that Aid. Hare has invariably voted
on the right side of every question,
but his record while a member of the
board has been such as to commend
him to the people.
In the first place, his position in the
matter of public improvements has
been unasSailable. When the final or
ders for street paving created such a
bitter feeling a year or so ago, be-
tween interested property owners and
certain aldermen, Aid. Hare was al
ways on the right side. On the lighting
question also, Aid. Hare made no mis-
takes In the matter of improvements
for the West side levee, the alderman
indicated his attitude clearly, as he has
not only favored them, but given his
hearty support to worthy enterprises
looking to the establishment of manu-
featuring plants calculated to greatly
improve the property and give employ
ment to labor

ENTIRE SYSTEM PRESERVED
In the Proposed Reorganization of
the Oregon Short Line & Utah
Northern.

NEW YORK, March 9.-The plan
Tor reorganization of the Oregon Short
Line IL Utah Northern Railway COM
pany, which has been agreed to by all
the contending interests, will be official
~ issued tomorrow. 1t calls for a FORE
closure, and a new company, to be
known as the Oregon Short Line Rail-
road company. 1t preserves the entire
system, and also control of the block
of Oregon Railway e. Navigation stock.
which secured the $4,000, 900 collateral
trust bonds, the new Short Line COM
pany paying the assessment upon the
navigation stock. There are 1 4S0 miles
in the Short Line system, and prior
liens of $21, 755,000 upon about 1,1So
miles will remain undisturbed but
the total indebtness will be only about
Sl25,OO0 per mile. The annual fixed
charges of the new company will be
Sl,S5S,2IO, as compared with S2,7SS575
for the old company. This reduction
In charges is accomplished by convert
ing one half of the present $40, 1874 900
consolidated fives, into non-cumu-
half of the $3,476,O00 Utah Southern
general and extension per cent mort
cages, the other half to get new per
cent bonds, and by converting the $13,-
100000 collateral trust per cent bonds
into non-cumulatiVe "B'' bonds, to re-
celVe interest II earned, per cent for
three years, and 4 per cent thereafter.
The "B' bonds have two directors in
the company. Any income from the
Navigation stock to secure their own
or per cent income, and no lease
OF the new company can be made with
out their majority consent, or a guar
antee of their income. No lien ahead
of the "a" and "B' bonds can be Gre
ated without the consent of majority
of each. The present $26, $50, 200 com
mon stock pays $12 per share, in four
installments, and receives therefor the
new consolidated per cent gold bonds,
and so per cent of stock in the new
company, the other half of the stock
going to the holders of the $14,S7O 900
consols and Utah Southern bonds in
the ratio of 100 per cent of their hold
ings, making the total stock of the new
company $27, AGO, 100.

WASHINGTON, March 9.-Senator
Morgan today introduced in the senate
q long document in the shape Of res
oIution embodying his ideas Of plan
for the reorganization of the Pacific
railroads. 1t instructs the committee
on Pacific railroads to report the bill
introduced by Mr.. Morgan giving juris-
diction to the court of appeals of the
District of Columbia in cases brought
by the United States involving liens
on railroads. The resolution also in
structs the committee to report q bill,
either as an original bill or an amend
ment containing provisions for refund
ing the outstanding government Pa
cific railroad bonds held by bona fide
owners who are not indebted to the
United States, and also the first mort
gage bonds; the refunding bonds to run
for thirty years at the option of the
government, and subject after ten
years to b. called in and paid by the
United States and to bear interest at
the rate of per cent. The refunded
bonds are to be held by the United
States treasury, and be eXchangeable
for the old bonds. They are to be Sc
cured as the present bonds are. A
sinking fund is provided for, to be de-
posted by the companies at the rate
of per cent per annum, to pay the
interest of the bonds If not paid by
the railroad companies Direction is
also given for taking possession Of
the roads by the government under the
provisions of the act of 1896. In that
event, the United States is to operate
the roads as it's property, the present
board of directors in each road to be
superseded by others consisting of nine
citizens to be appointed by the pfesi-
dent. No person now an officer or
stakeholder of the roads, or of any rail-
road or transportation or TELEGRAPH
company, or a member of congress, or
an official of the government is to be
appointed on these boards. The board
of directors is to manage the Central
Pacific and Union Pacific and branch
roads as one line, and have power to
fix rates. No dividends are to be paid
on unregistered stock, and the stock
is all to be reduced to correspond with
the. value of the property, The func-
lions of the present officers OF the roads
are suspended, and the books, papers,
contracts, deeds, etc, are to be turned
over to the new board of directors on
penalty Of fine and imprisonment for
refusal to turn them over.
The document closes with a declara-
ton that the government is possessed
in it's own right Of all the property of
the Pacific railroads; that it holds it
as the means and instrumentality of
national government and of interstate
md into
necessary that the roads should be con-
solidated as one through line; that the
government will preserve the property
as far as it Is consistent with justice
for the payment of all lawful demands.
and when the roads are freed from
debt will permit the owners of stock
to share in the ownership according
to the value of the property.
