EIGHT MILLION INCREASE.

Washington, oct 27-Although the
government officials decline either 10
affirm or deny the report of its accep-
tance of the new proposition OF the re-
organization committee OF the Union
Pacific railroad there is no reasona BILE
doubt of its accuracy. This proposition
Is understood to be an increase of the
original guarantee bid OF $50, 600, 900 to a
sum sufficient TO cover the full amount
OF the governments claim against the
Union Pacific proper. which on Oct 1
aggregated s5S,067. 1898. This includes the
principal of the debt, which amounts to
$27236.5l2, and the interest paid by the
United States, amounting to $50, 0,S90, ,Ss6.
This represents the full amount of the
Union Pacific's obligation to the gov
ernment. The sale of this line will be
proceeded with about Nov.1.

fishes the following: alfred s. Frank
lin, who was the interpreter with the
Wellman expedition in 1894. went TO the
navy yard Monday and inspected the
meteorite brought back from the frozen
north by Lieutenant Peary. Afterwards
he said he agreed with Nansen in his
doubt as to the celestial origin OF the
specimen. 1T is not a meteorite at all, ;
he said, but merely a mass OF telluric
iron. When j was with Wellman, on
June 70, 1894, Captain Petersen, Messrs
Dale, Noode. Bjoroig and myself started
out hunting. on Walsh island. formerly
known as the Inner Reps island, found
