THE UNION PACIFIC ROADS.
Mr.. Harmon Explains His Agreemeu,
With the REORGANIZATION committee

Mr. Harmon Explains His Axreem.nt
With the RcorEn nixntion Committee.
Attorney General Harmon has made a
staten ent in regard to the agreement rnale
with the reorganization committee Of the
Union Pacific railroads, as outlined i'm yes
terday's Star
Upon the defeat Of the funding lill i'm
the House., says the Attorney General.
the President directed me to commence
foreclosure proceedings against the Union
Pacific Railway Company, first making The
best arrangements obtaina5le for the pro-
tectlon OF the governments Interests Ne
EQUATIONS were opened with the reo.cani-
zation committee. and Thursday an agree
ment was made which will result in inn
mediate steps to foreclose. The chief SUBJ
)ect OF the negotiations was the protection
OF the government against the risk of sac
r.hce of its claim by a sale at a price
which would leave nothing substantial
after paying prior liens. This protection is
now assured by guarantee that the GOV
ernment shall receive On is lien on the
aided portions of the Union Pacific and
Kansas Pacific lines including the sinking
fund. not less than $45. 15I,00o The sale
Will be public. SO that the government VIII

signed by the Attorney General and Mr.
George Hoadly, special counsel. and for
warded to st. Louis, where they will he
presented to Judge Sanborn, who has tIris-
diction IN all the districts and whose con-
sent to their filing is necessary because
the receivers in charge of the property are
made parties defendant. They are original
bill and not cross bills in the pending suits
Whether they will proceed as independent
bills or to be ordered to stand as cross
bills in the pending suits will be determined
by the judge, but, In either event, the re-
suit will be practically the same, viz, the
sale of the property under the govern
ment's lien as well under that of the
first mortgage. Separate bills for the fore
closure of the lien on the Kansas Pacific
are in course OF preparation. The proposed
arrangement was indorsed by the govern
ment directors before IL was closed.
1T is believed that there will be higher
bids, but, IL not, an estimate shows that,
CT editing amounts already received from
the company. the government will at least
realize a sum equivalent to the principal
of the subsidy bonds with interest at about
1-3 per cent from their issue to the aver
age date Of their maturity, or about 3.45
per cent from date of issue to January 1,
1897
THE minimum of A5 1J4, 900 guaranteed
the government is in cash, SO that all re-
lations with the property win terminate
upon the confirmation OF the foreclosure
sale. The course to be pursued with
spect to the Central Pacific has not yet
been determined"

SIR ISAAC PITMAN DEAD.
The Inventor of Shorthand System
PASSES Away.


Sir Isaac Pitman, the inventor of the
system of shorthand writing which bears
his name, Is dead. He had been suffering
from complication Of diseases for some
time.
Isaac Pitman was called the Father of
Shorthand" His phonetic system, publish
ed in 1887, was not a pure invention. but
he undoubtedly did more to extend and
popularize the art and to bring it into use
than any other man.
Sir Isaac Pttman was born at Trow-
bridge. England, In 1913. and was educated
for pedagogue. 1t was while teaching
that he made his phonetic alphabet and
he then began business as a bookseller
and made a fortune. His brother. Ben
Pitman, applied his system TO the prac-
teal reporting of speeches
At the instance of Mr.. Gladstone Queep
Victoria conferred the order of knight
hood on Isaac Pitman on her birthday
anniversary. May "a. 1895. in recognition
of his genius. This was after he had been
honored at the jubilee of photography.
For nearly seventy years Pitman worked
ten to fourteen hours a day, almost With
out q vacation. He was o vegetarian a tee
total temperance man and never used to-
bacco.

A police call was turned in, and after the ami

through tho streets. that Keeper William
Worthington had been hurt by the elephant,
and that several other persons had been bruised,

FOR A SQUADRON TEST
Several Battieshipa and Cruisers to he Sent to

Assistant Secretary OF the Navy Theodore
Roosevelt made o statement yesterday regard
ing the intention of the Navy Department to
send feet of our battleships and some of our
armored cruisers out to soon, there to be
put to tests Of all Sorts When Mr.. Roosevelt
made the statement he was aboard the torpedo
boat Porter on his way back from inspecting
and reviewing the Frs. and Second Battalions
of the New York Naval Reserves. He had
also just left Secretary of the Navy Long
aboard the despatch boat Dolphin.
"It is desirable" Mr.. Roosevelt said, ''that
these war vessels Of ours should be put to tests
which will develop any faults or weaknesses
they may have, whether OF hull, machinery or
guns. To test them even TO the point of failure
they were all right and then have them fail
when came to put them into actual service"
Mr.. Roosevelt said 1t was the present inten-
ton of the Navy Department to make up feet
of Ave at least, and perhaps OF seven, Of our
new ships, and to send them for q cruise
which might last month: The vessels which
he said, might be included are the battleships
diana and the armorcd cruisers New York and
Brooklyn. The cruise might begin In about
a month, he said and would proba bly, be from
here to Hampton Roads. At the same time,
no added, the torpedo boats would also be put
to equally trying tests. These may be sent on
cruises up and down the coast, and around into
the Gulf OF Mexico and up the Mississippi
at is not enough" he said, that our vessels
should be tested BY individuals cruises. What
we need to prove their good and bad qualities
is to send them out in a squadron"
