MR.. WINSLOW S. PIERCE

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 23-Two Indianians
were right down before the Washington
footlights to-day-Col. John w. Foster and
Winslow S. Pierce. Colonel Foster, as
noted in the press dispatches, has been
made presiding officer at the seal confer
ence, which began business to-day, and Mr..
Pierce was here to represent the Union Pa
cifc reorganization committee in the clos
ing negotiations preliminary TO the fore
closure sale of the Union Pacific system.
Mr. Pierce was born and raised in Indian
apolis. studied law there and many years
ago moved to New York. He was fortu-
nate enough to form connection with the
law firm of which Judge Dillon, the late
Jay Gould's legal adviser, is the head, and
to-day he ranks as one of the leading cor
poration lawyers in the country although
only just past forty years of age. He has
made a speciality of the Union Pacific for
several years, and has had the almost I'M
divided management of the interests of the
security owners in the Washington field
end in the courts. He conducted the. Union
Pacific end of the negotiations with the
Cleveland and Mckinley administrations,
and the government officials, without re-
gard to politics, agreed that he has dis
played magnificent ability throughout. He
was two hours in consultation with the
President and Attorney General McKenna
to-day, and two hours with the attorney
general subsequently. leaving on a late aft
ernoon train for New York. The magnitude
of the interests Winslow Pierce represents
may be directly realized when it is stated
that the reorganization committee will have
to start the bidding with an offer of $685.
100000, that amount being the total of the
first mortgage bonds-$33, 900 O0G-plus the
guaranteed bid of $50, OGOO 900 for the govern
ment equity. The reorganized system,
when all collateral roads are finally taken
in, will have a grand total capitalization
approximating $24O 100000.
