R0SEBAUM TALKS.
HAS SOMETHING TO SAY ANENT
UNION PACIFIC REORGANIZATION
Says 1t Can Be Perfected Without Great
ing The Additional S75, 100000
Preferred Stock.

New York, June 14.-H. w. Rose
baum, who went to Europe last April
in the interest OF some of the dissatis-
fled shareholders of the Union Pacific
has returned. He says that he was
more successful than he even hoped
for when he started.
Il fully realized" he said, the
great difficulty of opposing the power
full syndicate which is engaged now in
Ia so-caued reorganization of the Union
Pacific company. Some prominent
houses, however, have enlisted them
selves on our side, although for the
present they wish to have their names
withheld until the opposition is more
criticised.
The company can be reorganized
without the necessity of creating $780,
600 900 of preferred stock. think $780,
900, 900 can easily be saved to the share
holders. OF course all Union Pacific
reorganization plans are dependent on
being able to effect a settlement of the
government debt on about the basis
which the present reorganization COM
mittee contemplates but if such set
tlement can be obtained the creation
of this mass of preferred stock is alb
solutely unnecessary and wasteful.
There are still hopes, however, that
Congress might be induced to grant an
extension on the debt of fair basis
With "a sinking fund the whole gov
eminent debt could be discharged
within a reasonable lie and there is
no necessity of the Jernment to lose
one dollar.
The Union Pacific, not counting
the payments into the collateral trust
sinking funds and some extraordinary
items, such as losses on investments
which will not occur again, last year
had a surplus of $3S6,OO0 over and above
payments of the government of $1,244,-
900 and after having charged the full
interest on all it's direct Indebtedness,
except the various collateral loans
which are however, nearly self sup
porting There is not the slightest
doubt that the interest on about $751;
100000 first mortgage bonds can be re-
duced from six per cent to four per
cent without the necessity of giving
the first mortgage bonds millions in
preferred stocks as a bonus.
This alone would save to the COM
pany about $75O,O00 a year and would
have enabled the company to apply
last years 100000 toward the pay
ment of the government debt. OF
course, all financial men realize that
If the government wants to sell out its
claim and receive cash therefor, it
would be quite impossible to raise the
full sum ofs53, 0O0, 900 which is now ow-
ing to the government and the govern
ment would have to accept a heavy
sfecirac Anybenefit arising from this
sacrifice which should in all justice
and anything that is left after hav-
ing made settlement with the bond
holders by right and equity must re-
vert TO the present shareholders"

JUBILEE PREPARATIONS
LONDON STREETS LINED WITH RE-
VIEWING STANDS.
Landlords Evict Tenants And Will Rent
The Windows To The
sightseers.

New York, June IA dispatch to
the Journal from London, says;
Six miles of London streets today re-
semble the ampitheatre of a circus.
From Buckingham Palace up Consti-
tuition Hill to Picadilly. down Picadil-
ly to ST. James street, thence by way
of Pail Mall, the Strand and Fleet
street to st. Paul's cathedral and af-
ter that across the Thames by way of
Cheapside, King William street, Lon
don bridge and back to the palace,
around through Borough High street,
Borough road, Western bridge, Parlia-
ment street, White hall and the Mall,
the shops, the hotels, residences,
churches, parks and public buildings
are hidden from view behind miles
and miles of board seats.
Not one foot of available space along
the entire route for the jubilee pro-
cession is left unoccupied. The slop-
ing roofs of the churches, the tops of
the lower houses, the gaps between
the buildings down every conceivable
place where there is a possibility of
seating a human being, has its row
of seats.
Every carpenter in London is work.
ing along the route of the procession
and the permanent building trade is at
a standstill, while the artisans of the
hammer and saw are getting the un-
precedented wages of IS and Sc per
day.
Some of the stands which are wholly
or partly finished have been tempo
rarily decorated by owners, so as to
seen how they will look on Jubilee
day.
Some of them are the most attractive
sights, and if the other owners show
the same decorative capacity, this part
of London will soon look like a fairy
town. Real flowers are to be used in
decorations which will be profuse. At
one or two stands the box office has
been opened. gaily decorated and lit
with electricity at night. In the win
dows as a rule is a model to the par
ticular stand as it will appear on Ju-
bilee day.
At present the sale of seats is very
slack. People are waiting for the in
evitable slump in prices. If stand
owners only get couple of guineas
seat the profits will not be very
large. AS it looks now there will be
plenty of seats for sale Jubilee day at
a guinea, five shillings and one shil-
ling.
There are people in London unfeel-
ing enough to generate glee over the
circumstances that landlords all along
the route of the procession who have
evicted their tenants under the impress
sion that prices Of windows Jubilee
day would more than make up years
rental, will probably lose not only rents
but on money paid for the erection Of
stands.

there is no doubt that many foreigners
believe in it and have left London.
1 fancy that moreover many others
will be closely watched by detectives
on Jubilee day.
Some newspapers and their cores
pondents profess to trace the hand of
an anarchist in this latest affair, but
the majority see only the act of some
mailman and express general sympa-
thy with President Faure and the
French people and remark that it is
devoutly TO be hoped that the perpe-
traitor of the outrage he speedily cap
tured and severely dealt with for ex-
ample as well as punishment.

SENATOR MORGANS IDEAS
Interviewed On His Pet
Subject.
HAS A LENGTHY BUT SENSl-
BILE TALK ON THE
CUBAN WAR.
Says Cuba Under The Complete
Control Of A Well Organized
Civil Government And
Deserves Recognition
By Uncle Sam.

New York. June IA dispatch to
the World, from Washington, says:
Senator Morgan in an interview last
night said:
'I have, information from the most
reliable authority that Cuba is under
the control of a complete organized
civil government, stronger today than
it ever was and so well established that
it is impossible now for the Spaniards
to overthrow il. The. Cubans have by
the natural resources of that part of
the island in which they are dominant,
sufficient food SUPPLIES to sustain them
to the end. The tactics of Gen. Go
mez in the meantime battles the
Spaniards effectually.
In the meantime, the situation is so
grave in Spain that the trained, sea-
soned disciplined troops, as many as
so, 900 men, $4,000 of whom might have
been taken on the island and swept it
from one end to the other. But that
is now out of the question. These
trained soldiers are wanted at home to
meet dangers that are threatening the
throne. The Spanish government is
afraid to put in control a man not in
accord with it's past policy so they re-
tanned Canovasto secure his influences
over the army and the forces that
will stand by the throne. They feel
safer in the pursuance of this policy
with Weyler in Cuba pursuing his own
policy of destruction and exterminat-
ion.
1t is impossible for me even to con-
lecture what President Mckinley will
do. But whatever this government
may do, am satisfied that this is one
revolution which will not go backward.
Work has already been accomplished
and established which must result in
the independence of Cuba. The Senate
action Of the Senate of the United Sta
ties defining the relations between
Spain and Cuba is firm and irrevoca-
BILE declaration of the truth that there
is war in the island of Cuba.
The administration is subjected to
the pressure of two classes of Amer
lean citizens concerning themselves
is that which is said to have between
$50, 900 900 and $100,0OOO00 invested in
the island. The other is the class
which in this case, as well as in ev-
cry other like it, avail themselves of
the opportunity to make money out
of the dilemmas and distresses of
others. They would have as the ba
sis of ouch an independence the is
suance of $5O,OOO,0OO of bonds, one-half
to be Devoted to replacing the losses
sustained by the Americans and the
other half to go into the pockets of the
bondholders and the bond placers.
This government, 1 think is now in a
state of contention with these infiu-
ences. No matter how earnestly the
President may believe in doing justice
to Cuba, or how great his desire to
promote her independence or his zeal
to take care of our people and the
rights in the island, he is handicapped
by the crowd that are only seeking to
make money out of the misfortunes of
others

AERoNAUT DROWNED.
Made a Descent From His Balloon In
to a River.

Chattanooga, Tenn, June 4.-Mrs.
Edith r. Bruno, an aeronaut, met a
terrible death by drowning in the Ten
nessee river. The basket which she
had relied upon as a buffet against
the water overturned and like a mill
stone around her neck, dragged her
under. Her feet became entangled in
the ropes and she was unable to ex-
tricate herself. Henry Bell, a fisher
man, put out from shore and recover
ed the body, which showed feeble signs
of life, but death soon ensued. The
tragedy happened at Riverside park,
five miles north of the city. Mrs. Bru-
no was a skilled aeronaut and acrobat
and a crowd went to witness the as
cension. When three thousand feet In
the air the parachute was set adrift
and began to fall rapidly. Tossed and
beat about by the cross winds, it fin
ally struck the water. A boat at once
went to her rescue. In seeking to get
her feet free from the parachute to

Civil prisoners here will shortly be

ground that they consider them deser-

San Antonio, Texas, Friday, April IT, 1897.

two Frenchmen living here told
story of the disappearance of a friend
of theirs named Joanes Cashel at Salt
Lake, during February of 1898. No
trace of him has ever been found.
Cashel was a native of Lyons, France,
and was well to do. The two men
identified the body as being that of
their friend and strongly maintained
that they pointed to consequences that
he had been murdered for his jewels.
He always wore a collection of great
value. The second theory was that
the body was that of Oliver Pike, and
that he had been murdered in Seattle
Wash. His relatives identified the
body and had it taken to Fayette for
burial. He disappeared from Seattle
on July 8, 1892 and was never heard of
until few days ago when he wrote
to his relatives.
1t was thought that Pike had been
murdered for some damaging knowl-
edge he possessed concerning the OPP
erations of an insane asylum at Stella
COON, Wash. An investigation was
made but no definite proof was ever
established that Pike had been done
away with by the suspected persons at
the Steilacoom asylum and the matter
was dropped.
Mrs. A. T. Mosher and c. G. Goriott,
cousins of Pike, were seen last night
in Ravenwood. They have been in
communication with the missing man
some time and stated that they believ-
ed he was still alive and that mis-
take had been made in the identifica-
ton of the body found in the trunk at
Austin. Presents had been received by
Pixies sister purporting to come from
him and he had also sent photograph.
Still the strange actions of the missing
man in the past year have made many
of his relatives doubt whether he is
really alive.
