UNION PACIFIC DEAL.
Attorney General McKenna Talks at
Length About 1t.

Attorney General McKenna Talks at
Length About 1t.
WASHINGTON, Oct 30.-Attorney
General McKenna, in speaking of the
present Union Pacific situation, said:
There has been a great deal of mis-
apprehension in the matter of the sep
ardtion of the sales of the Union Pa
cific and the, Kansas Pacific properties
The fact is, we have not separated
them in any sense in which they were
not separated, except that the time
between the sales has been heightened
out. Formerly the Union Pacific prop
erty was to be sold November 1 and 2,
which rule will now go on, and Kan
sas Pacific on the Sd, 4th and 5th of
November. That sale has been post
poned until December Is.
The reorganization syndicate did, it
is true, guarantee, if the government
would proceed to fOreclose, that bids
on the two properties aggregating $780,
100000, would be made; but there was
no statement as to what part of that
sum should rest on the Union Pacific
and on the Kansas Pacific, respectively.
Now we have been assured our full
claim On the Union Pacific and beyond
that point the government can not,
of course, bid.
On the Kansas Pacific property, the
sale of which has been postponed, there
must be bid of S12 100000 or no sale.
That upset price was made by Judge
Sanborn's division of the interests.
This sum will give the government
about S5,000,O0O and the bid may run
very much above that figure.
The government will get dollar for
dollar of it's debt on the Union Pa
cific. and in consequence of that re-
suit the Central Pacific must, in settle
ment of its Indebtedness, pay the
same. 1t can not escape from that
now, and this administration thinks it
is entitled to the credit for bringing
about this condition of affairs.
. Who would have thought, even as
late as month ago, that the United
States would ever get out all the mon
ey she had put into the Union Pacific?
venture that nobody except the p~esi-
dent and myself. I think we have
done very well. We started with prop
osition from the organization commit |
tee to pay s45, 100000 for the road. Now
it has agreed to pay s58,0O0,0 1000 for the |
Union Pacific alone, leaving the Kan |
sas Pacific line to be disposed of sep |
arately. At most, if the Kansas Pa
cific be sold at it's lowest possible |
price, under the terms of Judge San
born's decree, the government stands |
to lose s7,000,000 But the government |
will get every dollars of it's debt on
that line. as well as that on the Union
Pacific. The road is a good one-a
profitable local line if nothing else. and
well worth the $50 1000, 900 necessary to
clear off the government debt. The
committee in it's pros
pectus provides for the placing of over
$50, 100000 Of securities for the Kan
sas line-a fair indication, certainly, of
their idea of its value

cabiegram From Minister woodford.

Cablegtam From Minister woodfOrd.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 28.-The event
of the day at the Statd Department
was the receipt of the long-expeeted
cablegram from United States Minister
Woodford at Madrid transmitting the
answer of the Spanish government to
his representations in the interest or
peace in Cuba This message began 10
come in installments at O'Clock this
morning, and 1T was nearly noon today
befI-e 1t was all in. 1t was not the
length of the message that occupied
the wires all the time. but the fact
that ii was all in groups OF figures ann
that it was probably being filled IN.
small patches as it was turned into the
complicated State Department cipher
in Madrid All of this work had to be
undone at the State Department, and
the message translated from the ey-
pi,sr back again into good sEnglish.
This occupied nentrly all day, so thai
it was $3.50 o'clock before the first fair
COPY of the messgae was turned out.
1t was not so long in fact, there be-
ing a little less than 900 words in tho
message, for Mr.. Woodford, instead Of
cabling the whole of the Spanish an
sTwer to his note, had contented him
self with reducing the mater to brief
outline. The first copy was taken at
once to the president, not being en-
trusted to a messenger. but being de
livered by Chief Clerk Mickaels in per-
son at the white house.
After due opportunity had been
allowed the president to read the mes
sage an application was made for a
statement of it's contents Or nature.
This was declined by Secretary PCr-
ter and it was said that under no cir
cumstances would the correspondence
be made public before the cOnsidera-
tion of the cabinet. From official in
formation that has reached certain Of
ficers in advance of NJ. Woodford's
message it is evident that in neither.
language nor subject matter is the
message likely to be taken as oftens-
ive 1t may be, it is true, regarded
as insufficient to meet the issues pre-
sented by Mr.. Woo1f0rd In his note,
but officials Of the State Department
say that in view of what has already
been accomplished by the new Spanish
ministry and cabinet in reforming q
basis in Cuba, in removing Weyler and
in projecting what appears to be lib
eral measure of autonomy, our govern
ment will certainly rest, at least until
congress assemblies and afford the new
Spanish government time to carry out

WASHINGTON, Oct, 3O.-Chief

of $l044,050 for the next fiscal year
