BRING THE SYSTEM TOGETHER.
Effort Being Made to Reunite For
mer uninn Pucific Lines.

IhoEt being MADE To Reunite For
mer Union Pacific Lines.
Information from the general Offices Of
the Union Pacific at Omaha goes to show
that the policy of the re-organizationists is
to reunite the former great system at
present the oregan Short Line and the
Union Pacific. Denver and Gulf are the
objects of attack. There will be a strong
opposition made in Denver to the latter
effort. as with the Gulf tackled on the Union
Pacific system that city would lose the
mcst valuable line OF Rad it has,
The Union Pacific, Denver and Gulf is
the rate equalizer for the whole State of
Colorado. At the time the late Governor
Evans had it cut off from the Union Fa-
cific it was not nearly earning the interest
upon its bonds. Frank Trun'bull was then
appointed receiver for the road and under
his management 1t has met all its charges
and is making money. Its passenger busi-
Eess has increased something like 600 per
cent, while its freight business, both local
and through, has grown to such propor-
tions that the road is recognized as com
petitor of lines running directly cast. For
the reason that they would lose railway
lraI ager whose every interest is in the city
and besides it would lose a rate equalizer
the Denver people may be expected to
stubbornly oppose, even in the courts, the
reunion OF the Southern line with The
Union Pacific

| Washington. March lS.-The house spent
another day on the postoffice appropriation
bill, but only disposed OF two pages of tho
bill. Most of the day was devoted to the
merits Of the pneumatic tube mail service
IN New York, Boston and Philadelphia and
the advisability of continuing 1t. An
amendment was adopted providing that no
additional contracts shall be made. Also
one making it a nitsdemeanor for any
persons to pad the malls during the
period when the mails are being weighed
to determine the compensation to be paid
the railroads for their transportation.
Washington, March 1S.--The house to-
day agreed to the conference report on
the agricultural appropriation bill and then
went into committee of the whole and re-
sumed consideration of the postoifice APP
preparation bill.
MFR. Cooper (Dem., Texas. offered an
amendment providing that the star route
contracts should be made only with per-
sons residing In the States and Territories
through which the routes pass. He said
the practice of making contracts with star
ment was ruled out on point of order.
Mr. Moon Deni., MIMI made point
of order against the appropriation OF $780,
900 for pneumatic tube service. The point
of order was overruled and the approprla-
ton was retained
Mr.. McEwan (Rep., n. J.), offered an
amendment to the appropriation of $780,
100000 for railroad transportation provid-
ing that the dates when the mails should
be weighed to furnish a basis for the COM
pensation of railroads should be COM
municated secretly to postmasters.
General Grosyenor (Rep., Ohio). made
point of order against the amendment
and 1t was sustained.
After reading n letter from the postof-
fee department concerning the stuffing
of the mails during the weighing period,
Mr.. Loud submitted the draft of an amend
ment drawn at the department. 1t made
it misdemeanor for any one to place or
cause to be placed in the mails anything
during the regular weighing period with
intent to increase the weight of mails and
compensation paid therefor. 1t made the
offense punishable by fine of not less
than $500 nor more than $50 900 and i'm

Special Dispatch to The Call.

SEATTLE, Feb. 15.-The steamship Alliance sailed late tonight for Port Valdez, Alaska, via Dyea and Skaguay, with 250 passengers. Her return to this port may be expected in about twenty five days.
 The Keystone Company, made up principally of people of Braddock and Beaver Falls, Pa, and acquaintances in Seattle, left on the Alliance, intending to go into the Copper River country There are a number of prominent men, including lawyers, one doctor and other professional gentlemenr as well as me chanics and civil engineers. Colonel Creighton, a. war veteran, who cOm- manded a company of cavalry during the civil war, and who took party of explorers and miners into the interior of Alaska eleven years ago, is in charge of the party. They purpose if gold is not found in paying quantities upon the tributaries of the Copper River to pass over to the headwaters of the Panama.
 Colonel Creighton says that the talk of the hostilities of the Copper River Indians is simply nonsense; that they are the most inoffensive of people and that in all parts of the territory the natives are kind and hospitable He thinks it unfortunate that so many are going north without being advised of the conditions, privations and hard ships that they will have to encounter. Many will blunder around for more than year before they will know as much about the country as they should know before starting.

CERTIFICATES
 FOR MINERS Lewis Mission to Ottawa in the Interest of
 Klondikers. Will Ask That Licenses Be Issued by All British
 Consuls.
Present Regulations That Are a Great Hardship to Many of the Gold
 Seekers.
Copyright, 1898. by James Gordon Bonnet


 OTTAWA, Ont, Feb. 15-Represent- ative James Hamilton Lewis of Wash ington had a conference on Yukon matters to-day with Sir Wilfred Lau- rier and the Minister of the Interior. Speaking of his mission, Mr. Lewis said: The object of my present visit to Ottawa is connected with the diff culty which has arisen over certain regulations compelling all miners to take out mining licenses personally at Victoria. Vancouver or other Canadian ports. This works a very great hard ship upon all American citizens who may be going to the Klondike. I con- suited with the Departments of State and the Treasury, calling attention to my proposal that we should ask Can ada to permit the issue of free miners certificates by any British Consul or Vtce-Consul in the United States. or at any rate at such ports in Alaska as might be designated by the Domin- ion. Since arriving here the Chamber of Commerce of Seattle, my home city, has suggested Tagish as a convenient point where license might be issued. I realize that Tagish Is one of the points in the disputed territory This is the proposition that have to submit tothe Canadian Government. I have every confidence that our request will be granted"

ARRESTED WHEN ABOUT
 TO LEAVE FOR ALASKA,
Resident of San Jose Charged With the Robbery of His Business
 Partner.

SAN JOSE, Feb. 15.-J. R. Young, who was arrested in San Francisco yester- day on a charge of felony embezzle- ment as he was about to depart for the Klondike, was returned to this city this evening by Deputy Constable Benja- min.
 Young and E. R. Mundelius were, until a short time ago, partners in brass foundry works located on North San Pe- dro street. Business became dull and Mundelius proposed to Young that he (Young) run the business while Mun- delius would go down and look after his; ranch, located near Hollister. Young con- scented and matters were arranged that way. Soon afterward, Young disposed of the entire plant and left for San Francisco, preparatory to starting for the Klondike. Mundelius, not having re- ceived any accounting from Young, took a trip up here to see how things were getting along, and then made the uis- covery. He immediately went before Justice Kirkpatrick and caused the war. rant to be issued, upon which Young was arrested.
 Mundelius claims that among other things contained in the foundry there were valuable gasoline engine. lathe, metal and tools, all of a combined value of not less than $500. He says that every article was sold by Young, who pocketed the proceeds for the purpose of getting uuiet- ly away to the mines
