GREAT JOY IN SEATTLE.
New Steamship Compact Is a Big
Ae-- Thing for 1t.

SEATTLE, Wash, July 1s.-The an
nouncement from st. Paul that a con-
tract has been signed between repre-
sentatives Of the big Japanese steam
ship line, the Nippon Yusen Kaisha,
and President Hill, of the Great
Northern, whereby Seattle is made the
American terminus of the steamship
line, has caused great rejoicing here.
The Nippon Yusen Kaisha is the Royal
Mail Steamship company Of Japan, and
has In the neighborhood Of fifty YES
sells, representing $4,000 tons carrying
capacity. They are building in Eng
land ten ships Of 5000 tons each, bring
ing their total carrying capacity UP to
about 100000 tons. The first ship to
come to this port will not be one of the
regular vessels, but suitable ones de-
signed for this trade are being built in
England.
The coming Of this line to Seattle
settles for all time the dispute as to
what city will be the Pacific coast
terminus of the Great Northern. The
steamers of the Northern Pacific. line
will also come here, and enlarged
docking facilities are already under
way. The contest to secure this prize
was between Seattle, Tacoma, Port
land, San Francisco and San Diego.

NOW THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

In May last, when 1t was known that
the Republican city ticket was elected.
among other rumors circulated was one
to the effect that John 7. Black, ex-
chief of the fire department, was to be
brought back from Duluth to resume
his old place Little attention was
paid to the report, for the reason that
the present fire board is Democratic,
and will remain so for some time to
come. That there may be something
more than wind in the report is. indi-
Gated by the following special dispatch
to the G b e received last evening:
Duluth, Mimi, Special, July 1S-A St.
Paul man who stands close to the city adj
ministration was in Duluth today, and said
that a deal has been fixed up by which
Chief Black, Of the Duluth fire department,
Is to be again placed at the head of the st.
Paul department soon as the term of
Chief Jackson expires. Mr. Black was at
the head Of the St. Paul fire forces for sew
eral years.
Chief Jackson's term does not expire
until next spring, unless he should be
summarily removed by the board,
which is anything but probable.

ONE OF THE UNION PACIFIC RE-
CEIVERS IN ST. PAUL ON
BUSINESS,
K. C. & OMAHA SALE COMES vi
FOR CONSIDERATION BY JUDGE
SANBORN OF THE FEDERAL
COURT THIS WEEK.
HE THINKS THAT BETTER TIMES
Are Coming and the Union Pacific
Will Profit But Not Through
Free Silver.

E. Ellery Anderson, Of New York,
one of the receivers of the Union Pa
cine railway, accompanied by w. r.
Kelley, general counsel for the re-
ceivers, is in the city. The visit of
these two gentlemen at this time has
no special significance in connection
with Northern Pacific affairs, except
that an application will be made for
continuation of the sale of Kansas
City and Omaha railway, which was
sold on July Sth for s15OOOO This line
is 1913 miles in length, and has a bond
ed indebtedness of 50, 700, 0OO This mat
ter will be placed before Judge San
born, of the United States circuit
court, early next week.
They will also present an application
for the payment of interest coupons
on the Oregon Short Line, and Utah
and Northern, and If approved interest
will be ordered paid in thirty or sixty
days.
1t is also conceded that the Oregon
Short Line will pass out of the hands
OF the receivers as soon as reorganized,
In conversation with Mr. Anderson.
regarding Northern Pacific affairs, he
stated to the Globe that a reor-
ganization of the Union Pacific would
probably take place sometime in Sep
TENDER, and that it would be on some
basis commensurate with the earnings.
Although there is no Improvement in
the earnings of this road, it is ex-
pected that with good crops. cheaper
good from the East, and not free
coinage, that there will be a return of
prosperity. Mr.. Anderson expressed
profound sympathy for the people Of
the South and West, but hardly agreed
with them as to the proper remedy
which would bring about better condi-
tons. Mr.. Anderson was of the opin-
ion that the present condition of af-
fairs throughout the West and par
ticularly in the state of Nebraska.
where during the past two years their
population had shown a decrease Of
something like one hundred thousand.
and in the city of Omaha, where a
decrease of possibly forty thousand
was shown, was due to poor crops in
past years and the unsettled business
conditions incident to a presidential
election.
Mr.. Anderson is domiciled at the
Ryan, and will remain In the city until
the middle Of next week, returning
direct to New York

GRAIN RATES CUT.
Slash Made by the Illinois Central
RaOd.

+ CHICAGO, July 18.-There was an
other tumble in grain rates today, the
Illinois Central being the road respon-
sible for the cut 1t announced that
from all points where the old rate to
this city was 6 or 7 cents per hundred,
1t will make q rate Of cents, thus
making maximum reduction of two
cents on all short haul business. The
Illinois Central has been making a
fight to keep the rates to New Orleans
on parity with those made to this
city by the Missouri river roads and
the latest cut was to make the reduc-
tons that have been put into effect
heretofore reach the points from which
the grain would have to pass through

"TRILBY" COMING HERE.
COoper's Great Painting to be shown
Here Next Week.

Ashley D M. Cooper's masterpiece
'"Trilby' the painting recently exhibit
ed at the cycle show in Minneapolis,
and later on Nicollet avenue, will be
placed on exhibition in st. Paul at AIT
Wabasha street, beginning Tuesday
next. This great painting has been
constantly on exhibition for nearly a
year in the different large cities of the
country and has been visited by over
$780, 900 people. The attendance in Min
neapolis was $4,000 and among this
number were a great many st. Paul
people who can testify to the merits
Of this celebrated painting.
The picture represents the heroine Of
Du Mauriers famous novel posing for
the artists of Paris, and SO true to life
Is it that the visitor can hardly believe
it a painting. Art critics everywhere
agree that the effect produced in this
picture has never been equalled on
canvas. Cooper has painted several
pictures that has attracted world wide
attention, but "Trilby'' is his master
piece. The picture is valued at $4,000.
1t will no doubt be largely patronized.

Of the tickets to the annual convention

THURSDAY. APRIL 30. 1896.

Party organization, party alllliation,
party likes and dislikes will doubtless
greatly interfere with forming the line
of battle, but the conflict between
those who favor free coinage OF silver
and those who favor single gold
standard for the currency OF the
United States is irrepressible and will
not down. Under present conditions
there must be gold standard, or IA
silver standard. In an able speech re-
Gently delivered ut Cincinnati, Hon.
James II. Eckels, comptroller Of the
currency said:
~ trust that in the contest that is
now being waged between the forces
of free silver and llatism on the one
side, and those who take their belief
in monetary affairs from that which
the world of business and Of com
merce holds to be controlling princl-
pies, the outcome may be definite and
the settlement conclusive. There Is
now no room for compromise or means
Of avoiding % definite issue. Today,
the American business world stands
eager and eXpGcLant, prepared, If
doubt and indecisIon come 10 an end,
to set ut work forces which will make
this country again the home OF new
and greater prosperity. It's resources
are ample, the energy Of ITS people
unbounded, its opportunities would be
world wide. 1t only needs such Iinan-
cial and monetary laws and policies as
will again inspire the worlds conf.
dence and again draw it to the worlds

tial to the return Of prosperity to the
American people the complete elImi-
nation of the free silver ialIacy and
equally emphatic and uncquiyocal re-
Affirmation of our adherence to
the single gold standard of value.
AS u part Of that work ] deem it
necessary that the outstanding de
mand obligations Of the government
shall be ut the earliest practicable
moment pald IN Eold ana Cancelled,
and that assurance thus be given that
we have entered upon an era of llnan-
ciering that Is based upon correct and
sound monetary principles. An Il con
tribution to all this, every note Of
issue to circulate rs money should he
issued by tho banks, and every bank
that issues such a note should stand
ready and capable to redeem the same

The duty at hand for the American
citizen Is to take right stand on the

polls. The position Of the nationSl
