Winding Up Union Pacific Affairs,

New York, October 21-A bill of COM
plant has been filed In the United States
Circuit court by George Hoadley, special
assistant to Attorney General McKenna,
in a suit brought by the United States
against the Union Pacific Railway Com
pany and Frederick P. Coudert and 9TH
ers as receivers, and ]. PierpOnt Morgan
and others as partners, under the firm
name Of ]. Pierpont Morgan & Co.
Mr.. Hoadley in his complaint makes
request that he be furnished by the de-
PENDANTS with statement showing the
amount Of assets and property turned
over by the Union Pacific Railway Com
pany to DreXel, Morgan & Co. and ].
PierpOnt Morgan & Co. He also asks
that defendants furnish a statement
showing all the dealings of these two
firms with the assets, and that they be
required to show who is now in posses
sion Of the assets and property of the
railway company, and what portion now
remains In the possession Of these two
firms or other defendants.
In the bill it Is further asked that the
defendants be required TO show what
amount Of money or other property has
been realized by j. Pierpont Morgan &
Co. from the sale or other dispositions
Of the assets Of the railway company
and in whose possession these proceeds
are at the present time. 1t is further
asked that orders of the court may be
issued making persons or corporations
which have received such assets or prop
erty, or the proceeds thereof, from ].
PierpOnt Morgan & Co., and who are
now possessed Of any part Of such as
sets or property, parties to the suit.
Mr.. Hoadley further asks that an aC-
counting be held to determine the claims,
rights Of the cOmplainants when such
claims are due and the amount of these
claims, after giving legal credit for all
assets and property held as security
therefor to the extent available there
from as security for the complainant.
1t is also asked that final decree be rem
dered against the firm of J. PierpOnt
Morgan & Co. and other defendants.
subjecting the assets and property of the
Union Pacific Railway Company or their
proceeds which may now be in possess
sion OF DreXel, Morgan C Co. or ]. Pier
pont Morgan & Co. to the lien OF the
United States as security for the residue
which may be due the government on
such an accounting, because of the issue
OF subsidiary lien bonds issued in aid
OF the construction Of the Union Pa

Topeka, KANSAS, OCTOBER q, 1897.

while the average monthly payroll
amounts to between $4,000 and $4,000.
The daily balance sheets and the book
keepers books also show that for some
reason amounts were received and paid,
and registered upon the ledger, but car
ried ahead for several days, sometimes
to the next month, before any record was
made of them upon the daily balance
Sheets The fact is, and the books show
it, that during the last few months of
the Morrill, 'redeemer" administration
the treasury was in very deep water, and
had to resort to these unsual methods
in order to prevent warrants being
stamped Not paid for want of funds,
and to keep the public in ignorance of
the actual condition of affairs.
AS to the charge that the depletion of
the general fund is due to POpulist ex-
travagance and incompetency, COM
parisOn Of conditions under the last two
administrations will prove Of interest.
January 19, 1898, when Biddle (POp) be-
came Treasurer, there was $662, ,439.10 in
the general fund. He received during
two years $2,614, ,92S.O1, and paid out
81, ,659, ,84OS9, leaving Mr.. AthertOn (Rep)
a balance of $617, 7,521.20. Mr.. AthertOn
received in taxes and from other sources
$2,616, ,557.17, paid out $3,140, ,211.25, leav-
ing balance to his successor (Mr Hefle-
bOwer) of $93,86714. In other words,
the expenses paid out Of the general fund
increased 1S per cent, or $4S0, ,370.36
during the two years Of Republican rule.
These figures show that during Biddle's
term the expenses exceeded the receipts
$44, ,9l7.0S, while the expense Of the Nor
rill administration during AthertOn's
term exceeded the income by $523, ,65408
This Republicans try to explain by point
ing to State House improvements, but
these were paid for out of an entirely
separate fund and are not included in
the above figures. The question is,
What did Republicans do with that extra
half million dollars?
The books also show that for the first
nine months Of the Morrill, administration
the expenses paid out Of the general fund
amounted to $1,262,S93, while during
the first nine months Of the present ad-
ministration but 81 ,O65, ,46325 was paid
out, showing a difference in favor of the
POpulists of $197, ,429.75
These figures disprove the charge Of
extravaganza and incompetency on the
part of the present officers. Hon.
R. H. Semple, deputy Bank Examiner,
makes affidavit that the above figures
are as shown by the records in the State
offices. The more carefully the records
are studied and examined the more fully
is it demonstrated that the original state
ment made by the Advocate that the
present condition is due to Republican
recklessness and extravaganza is abso-
lutely true.

Potato Crop Short.

New York, October 21.--NOt since 1892
has the potato crop of the United States
proved so nearly failure, says the
American Agriculturist in it's final report
OF the yield of 1897 Compared with the
liberal crop of last year there is an ap-
parent falling off of nearly 30 per cent.

is greatly deficient The average rate
of yield per acre is placed at GA bushels
Of yield per acre is placed at 64 bushels,
taking the country at large, against So
bushels in 1896, SO in 1895, and 81 in 1892.

POLITICS In NEW YORK.
The Quadrangular Campaign The Liveliest
One Ever Held.

Last Thursday, the forces of the sew
eral candidates, excepting those of Van
Wyck-Tammany's man-had fairly got
under way. A dispatch, after referring
to the disputes among Tammany men
over the importation Of speakers from
other States, says: The announcement
that Mayor Harrison, of Chicago, Is com
ing here to speak in behalf Of Judge Van
Wyck, the Tammany nominee for Mayor,
is not received with favor by the Tam
many sachems. From the outset, the
Republicans have been criticised by the
Democratic managers and leaders and
by the newspaper supporters of the Cit
izens Union movement for importing
campaign speakers, notable among
whom were Senators Foraker and Thurs
ton. The acceptance of Mayor HarrisOn's
tender Of services is regarded as a stul-
titicatiOn of the Democratic position on
this subject.

A great demonstration In favor OF
Seth Lows candidacy for Mayor took
place in Carnegie hall tonight. A tre-
mendous throng that filed every seat
in the pit, crowded the boxes and from
thence swept up to the topmOst row of
the big gallery was present. The most
remarkable feature Of the meeting was
that it was not billed as a Citizens but
as a Republican, meeting, being held
under the auspices of the Republican
organization of the city of New York
The first glimpse of the candidate set
the house wild. The women scrambled
up into their seats and waved their hand
kerchlefs and fairly shrieked with de-
light.
In calling the meeting to order the
chairman addressed the audience as
Fellow Republicans" and this evoked
cheers. Mayor Strong was introduced
and could not speak till he had endured
another burst of cheering Mr.. Strong
began by declaring that the real genu-
inc Republicans of New York were sup
porting Seth Low"
Seth Low was then introduced Such
a storm as arose has rarely been heard
in Carnegie hall. Mr.. Lows speech was
an amplification Of the addresses that
he has been delivering throughout the
campaign. He referred to Mr.. Platt as a
citizen of Oswego and to Mr.. Croker as
a frequenter Of the English race track;
and called on his hearers to vote for
home rule.
