UNION PACIFIC PATENTS,
An Attempt to Secure Some In
formation Relating 10 Their
Suspension.
Members of the Committee Not Yet
Ready to Be Known as
Land Agents"

WASHINGTON. D. c., Jan. 1.-THE
House Pacific Roads Committee to-day
heard E. Ellery Anderson, Government
Director of the Union Pacific Railroad, and
Wheeler H. Peckham, an attorney of New
York City, in advocacy of a resolution
calling on the Secretary of the Interior for
information as to why land patents have
been suspended.
The committee took no action, it being
understood that Anderson would, in the
meantime, prepare bill on this subject to
be presented to the committee when it
meets again on Monday, the Goth inst.
Ex-Representative Payson of Illinois,
representing the Central Pacific Railroad,
will appear before the committee on that
day and oppose any such resolution or bill
as proposed by the Union Pacific. lie does
not wish the impression to get abroad that
the Pacific Railroads Committee is acting
in the capacity of a body of Gland" at
torneys for the Pacific roads, but that they
are fair and impartial body of men.
Mcguire said tonight:
81 heard a report tonight that the Pa
ciic Roads Committee had adopted
resolution asking Secretary Smith why he
had suspended land patents to the Pacific
ROADS,. was aStonlSneu tnat this
committee would do such pre-
posterous thing. They have no
business looking after their land patents,
and the adoption of such a resolution
would have made them appear as land
agents for Pacific roads. | learned to-
night that the report was erroneous, but
that Union Pacific Director Anderson will
prepare a bill looking to the resumption OF
land patents. The Central Pacific people
are smarter, however. Their attorney,
ex-Representative Payson, will oppose
adoption would place the Committee on
Pacific Roads in the attitude of railroad
land agents."
Chairman Powers also stated to THE
CALL correspondent tonight that no such
resolution had been adnnted

FEARS WERE WELL FOUNDED.
Mysterious KUrder of Non Who Was
Refused Protection BY the
Authorities.

FORT SCOTT. KANs., Jan. 1.-two
days ago Quill Burger, ell-known baker,
who had just returned to this city after a
long absence, sent to Sheriff Allen and
asked for protection from a man whose
name he gave as DR.. Munyard Of Eureka,
Utah. He said he had been conducting a
bakery at Eureka and that the doctor had
sworn to kill him, for which reason he
tied. Upon arriving here he discovered
that the doctor had followed him. Burger
was closely questioned by the officer, but
would not tell the nature of the trouble
that caused his apprehension of being
murdered. The Sheriff believed it an hall
Iucination and assured him that nobody
would harm him.
Last evening Burgers dead body was
found in an isolated cave in the west part
of town. His throat was cut from ear to
ear. There was no sign of struggle, nor
could any evidence be found to indicate
that he had been killed at that spot. The
body was in a sitting posture, leaning
against the wall of the cave, and life had
evid emily been extinct twenty-four hours.
No weapon could be found TO indicate sui
eide.
The city and county officers were noti-
fed and have as yet been unable to learn
who could have had any motive to murder
him. The body is in the Morgue and SEN
sational developments are expected.

MANY FIRMS INVoLVED.
Some Extensive Failures Occur in Phita-

Some Extensive Failures Occmr in Phita-
deIphi0.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Jan. 1.-THE
Keen-Sutterle Company. extensive i'm
porters and dealers in glazed kid, against
which executions for $67, ,730 were issued
in favor of Mrs. Mary G. Forepaugh, made
an assignment to-day to the Equitable
Trust Company. Subsequently the latter
company was appointed by the court as
receiver of the embarrassed concern. Mrs.
Forepaugh also entered judgment against
Frederick w. Sutterle, the head OF the
company, for a similar amount. The
failure also involved John NJ. Fenlin, an
extensive morocco manufacturer in this
city. 1t is estimated that the liabilities of
the Keen-Sutterle Company will exceed
half million dollars. Fenlin's liabilities
are about $4,000.
The assignment of the Keen-Sutterle
Company produced furry on the Stock
Exchange to-day by the offering OF large
block of shares of the Choctaw, Oklahoma
and Gulf Railroad Company, which were
carried on margin for syndicate COM
posed chiefly of the members of the Keen
Sutterle Company. The price fell rapidly
from 11T to S34, but it recovered point
before the close.
James 8. Keen, the vice-president of the
company, is reported to have stated to-
day that nine houses in the leather trade
will be involved by the failure. Another
merchant is said to have expressed the
opinion this afternoon that four firms
would be involved.
Following this failure the embarrass-
ment of John A. Duncan & Co., local
morocco manufacturers, was announced.
Executions were issued against Duncan &
Co. for $35. 600.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. Jan. 11.-Senator
Hawleys bill to arm the militia, which
authorizes the Secretary of War to furnish
the National Guard Of the various States
with Springfield rifles of 45 caliber in ex-
change for any other type of rifle now in
use has been referred to the War Depart
ment for an opinion as to it's merits, and
Assistant Secretary Doe, who is in charge
of military matters and thoroughly ex-
perienced in them, has, after careful
consideration, given the bill strong in
dorsement, but has suggested that itwould
be of even greater benefit to the militia if It's
provisions were extended so as to author
ize the exchange of new Springfield rifles
of 45 caliber for arms of the same make and
caliber already in possession of the militia,
but which have become worn out and use
less as the result of continued use.
After passing the bill as it stands it
would have been impossible to exchange
the old Springfield rifles held by the
militia for new ones as the exchange is
confined to arms of other make. Accord
ing to General Doe good gun is desider-
atum to milltlamen and the Government
should see that all are properly equipped
in that respect. In view OF the main pur-
pose of the bill it is believed that it will be
amended SO as to meet the point raised by
the military authorities.

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Jan. 11.--A special
to the Standard from Oneida, N. Y, says:
1t has been learned that the English
Government has Just entered into con-
tract with the officials OF the New Y FORK,
Ontario and Western Railroad for the de-
livery of one million tons of coal to points
along Lake Ontario and the Canadian bor-
ders.
The contracting for coal in such large
quantities is thought to have some signih.
canoe when the strained relations of Great
Britain and the United States over the
Venezue Ian question is taken into consid-
Grafton.
II is thought to mean that England is to
supply her coaling vessels at Canadian
ports, if not to establish and supply new
ones in case war should ensue between the
two countries.
The New York, Ontario and Western
road is largely controlled by English capi-
talists, and the placing of the contract
with them is sort of national affair.
The railroad is now making preparations
for filling the contract, and many cars and
engines are being repaired and built.
