SIOUX CITY COMPANY WANTS TO
INTERVENE IN PROPOSED
FORECLOSURE.
PETITIONS JUDGE SANB0RN.
INSISTS COURT IS WITHOUT POWER
TO GRANT A DECREE ASKED
FOR.
THE REAL QUESTION INVOLVED
Is Whether the Concern Has Inter-
est That Entities 1t to Hear
ing In Foreclosures.

The Credits Communication company,
of Sioux City, Iowa. presented a petit
ton to Judge Sanborn in the United
States circuit court yesterday for
leave to intervene in the cases involv-
ing the foreclosure Of the Union Paci-
tic railroad and the judge granted an
order for hearing upon that question
at the court room in St Paul, on the
goth day Of May, 1897. The Com
mutation company claims to be the
owner Of a bridge across the Missouri
river at Sioux City and of some rail-
roads extending from Sioux City north
and west, and to be entitled to connect
those railroads with the Union Pacific
at some point west of Omaha. In its
petition it insists that the court is
without power to grant a decree Of
foreclosure sale of the Union Pacific
railroad, either upon the first mort
sage, or upon the government lien,
and that in case such a decree could be
made, it should impose upon the pur-
chaser all the conditions and servi-
tudes that were imposed upon the
Union Pacific Railroad company by the
acts Of congress under which it was
constructed.
At the hearing in May, the trustees
for the first mortgage bondhoIders,
the government and all other parties
interested in the foreclosure will have
an opportunity to be heard. The real
question that will then be presented
is whether the Credits Communication
company has any such interest as en-
titles it to be heard at all in these
foreclosures.

ENDEAvOR RATE ACCEPTED.
lEOuthern Pacific Approves the West
ern Roads Plan

CHICAGO, April 2S.-Western pas
senger officials are rejoicing over the
settlement Of the troubles regarding
rates for the convention Of the Chist-
ian Endeavor society at San Francisco
in July. The Southern Pacific has
held out for a round trip rate Of $50,
while the other Western roads would
not consent to round trip rates, be-
cause they feared manipulation by the
scalpers. Last Saturday a proposition
was telegraphed the Southern Pacific
that a one rate fare of $25 from
Chicago to San Francisco be adopted.
To this proposition, a reply has Just
been received from General Passenger
Agent Goodman, of the Southern Paci-
fic. accepting the $25 rate Of the West
ern roads. This gives the Endeavor
people lower rates than they would
have had otherwise
All the business for the convention
at San Francisco will be routed through
the Missouri river gateways. No re-
duced rates will be allowed through
any other gateways and, going to San
Francisco any delegate to the conven-
ton, taking any other route than
through the Missouri river gateways
will be compelled to pay full fare. In
returning, however, the tickets will be
good via the Missouri river gateways
or through the Northern gateways via
st. Paul. The dckests will be sold at
$50 for the trip via the Missouri gate
ways and $3.50 via st. Paul
