the number of tickets sold during the
year, etc, ETC., are all shown, and the
report makes interesting reading.
Culling out some Of the totals which
are given in tabulated form below, in
connection with the detailed report, it
is shown by the figures Of Secretary
Morton that during the year 23O, ,413
cars end engines passed through the
union depot, increase Of over 10000 over
1895.
A total Of 40,587 passenger trains en-
tered and departed from the depot, an
increase of 1,468 over 1895. The road
moving the greatest number Of cars
and engines in and out of the union
depot was the Chicago, st. Paul, Min
neapolis & Omaha (Northwestern).
The Union Depot company trans
ferred 213,217 freight cars and engines,
an increase of 3O,507 over the proceed
ing year. The total number of cars,
both passenger and freight, and en-
gines which entered and cleared from
the union depot during the year was
443 $50, an increase of LOOP over 1895.
The table showing the movement of
passenger cars in and out of the de-
pot for the year 1896 is as follows:

3O6, a decrease Of 1926. The average
number of packages carried per day
was $50. The average number OF
trunks, packages, ETC., handled per day
was 1854, an increase of 100. In the
number of tons Of mail handled there
was a great surprise. The total num-
Der of tons handled for the year was
31,537, against 28,67O for 1895, an in
crease of 1857 tons, largely owing to
G. A. R. week. The average tons pei
day was 1854. The losses paid were
$114.75, an increase Of $10416 The SAL
aries paid in the baggage department
amounted to $19,310, increase $2,633.
The total receipts from sale of tick

sold was 285,977 against 277, ,023, an in

The total cost Of maintaining the
Union Station company, including ev-
cry item, was $151, 1919, against $780,

the expenses were: Interest on bonds,

His Star Rising.
HANNA TO BE SENATOR.

SPRINGFIELD, o., Feb. 20.-The
Gazette, which is regarded throughout
the state as Gov. Bushnell's official
organ, today publishes an editorial
which is construed by the governors
friends to mean that he will appoint
Mark A. Hanna tc succeed Sherman in
the United States senate. The editor
ial is not specific, mentioning no can
didates, but states the appointment
will be of such a character as to in
crease the harmony in the party.
Cleveland, O., Feb. 20.-A special
from Columbus tonight gives an inter-
view with Gov. Bushnell regarding the
senatorship. The governor declined to
discuss the question or to say what
his probable action will be. He said
he was not ready to announce his de-
cision and would not be for several
days perhaps. The impression at Co.
lumbus among those who have followed
the subject is that the governor will
probably reach a decision on Monday
before he departs for Cincinnati, where
he is to deliver an address From that
city he will go to Washington to at
tend the Inauguration. 1t is expected
that Mr.. Hanna will be chosen.

ProSperity's DaUn
NOT FAR AWAY.

NEW YORK, Feb. 20.-Tne Financier
says: The statement of the clearing
house banks of New York city for the
week ending Feb. 20 is in direct con-
trast with those of the two weeks pre-
ViCuS. After decrease Of over $6OO0,-
coo in the cash held by the banks dur
ing that period, there was a sudden
gain of S., 176,600, as reported by the
current statement for the week. The
heavy shipments of gold from the Pa
cific coast had a great deal to do with
the increase in specie, and perhaps
affected the legal tender holdings,
which also show a gain. The currency
deposited with the treasury to cover
retired circulation may also be return
ing to swell the idle cash in banks.
Then. too. the financing Of one or two
heavy railroad reorganizations has un-
doubtedly affected the several items of
the statement.
The falling off in loans is disappoint-
ing. The loans Of the banks in Boston
and Philadelphia have shown a ten
dency recently to expand and it was
hoped that the movement here would
continue in volume. The plethora of
idle money is not confined to New
York. A dispatch from Chicago states
that the banks there are seriously con-
sidering a reduction from to ~ per
cent on country bank balances. and
ed this week to decide definitely on the
matter.
Despite the accumulation of money
in the great centers, forwarded. for the
most part, to secure the small bank in
tereSt allowed on it, evidences of
general revival in business continue to
be received from different sections. The
south, especially. seems to be on the
verge Of a genuine recovery in trade,
and reports received during the week
are of a most encouraging nature The
opening Of the spring. season here. it
is believed, will be the most auspi-
cious since the panic. and the rest of
the country will witness a similar
awakening from the lethargy Of the
past few years.
The unprecedented orders for steel
rails the heavy foreign trade balances
which are being augmented now by
an enormous export of corn. all tend
to one conclusion-that the dawn of
prosperity cannot be long delayed.

Fate of D.. Ricardo Ruiz.
OLNEY DEMANDS EXPLANATION.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.--Consul
General Lee cabled from Havana to
the state department this afternoon,
that he had made a formal request Of
Acting Captain General Ahumada for
permission to eXhume the body of DR..
Ricardo Ruiz, an American dentist,
who was found dead in a prison at
Guanabacoa. The guards allege that
DR.. Ruiz committed suicide, but infor-
nation was conveyed to Gen. Lee that
he was murdered. 1t was desired to
disinter the body to determine whether
it was case Of murder or suicide.
Gen. Lee reported that his request,
in every way reasonable and made in
the usual manner was refused, and all
his efforts to have the refusal rescind-
ed had proved unavailing. He asked
instructions from the state department
as to the course he should pursue. At
the same time he expressed strong in
dignation and characterized the acting
captain generals attitude as without
justification.
Assistant Secretary Rockhill i'm
mediately laid the communication be-
fore Secretary Olney and in the next
hour and half three or four CONSUL
tatiCns were held on the subject. Gen.
Lee was directed to renew his request
for the exhuming of the body of DR..
Ruiz and to insist upon compliance
with his demand in less than two
hours after the receipt of Gen. Lees
cablegram. Secretary Olney went to the
executive mansion

ton of the dairy board became appar-
ent during the afternoon, when thirty
dairymen and representatives of
creameries in Southern Minnesota
agreed to become members and offer
their produce for sale here subject to
the rules to be hereafter adopted. AS
an earnest of the future Of the board
1t is sufficient to state that orders
have already been booked for five cars
of butter to be shipped weekly, begin
ming with May Is, and other orders
are pending. The local committee on
constitution and bylaws has been sup
plemented by the addition of three
members from New York, Boston and
San Francisco. This committee will
report as soon as possible and the final
steps will then be taken to perfect
the organization of the board.

Some Surprising Figures on the Number of Cars and

Twelve Months

The annual report Of the st. Paul
Union Depot company for the year
1896 was issued yesterday by Secretary
A. S. Morton and was presented to
and approved by President A. B.
Plough. The report includes also that
of Superintendent w. F. Mcmillan.
The report has some very surprising
figures, which show remarkable in
crease in the business of the company
over 1895. The9increase, however, is
almost wholly due to the immense traf-
fic in and out of the city during the
week of the national Grand Army en-
campment in September last. This
event caused the Union Depot company
to break all records. The report of

reached here late tonight of rumors in
Havana of a big fight in Santa Clara

which lasted eight hours. The insur-
gents cut down the Spanish forces first
