WORKING FOR A DEPOT.
Commercial Club INDUCES in De-
bate About the Project.

The matter of a new Missouri Pa
cifc depot in this city occupied over an
hour of the time of the Topeka Com
mercia1 club at it's meeting last night.
Property owners living on Adams street
between Seventh and Eighth streets,
were there to protest against any ac-
ton being taken favorable to the con-
struetion of the additional switch which
the company says is necessary if a new
depot is built. Judge A. H. Horton was
present as a representative of the Mis-
souri, Pacific company.
Judge Horton stated that the COM
pany simply wanted the city council to
pass an ordinance similar to the ordi-
nances passed for the Santa F'e and
Rock Island, giving it the privilege OF
building an addition switchtrack from
Seventh to Fifth streets. He said that
unless the council was willing to do
this the company would not build an
extensive depot in this city and would
simply move the present freight depot
in South Topeka to the property at
Fifth and Adams street. He also stated
that the company was willing to pay
all damages resulting to property own
ers as a result of the additional switch,
but that it held the damages could not
be estimated until after the track was
built
Mr. o. w. Blood, who has four houses
on Adams street near Seventh, stated
the position Of the property owners He
said:
THE Missouri Pacific has now two
switch tracks up to Fifth street, and
if no switching is to be done l don
see that another track is needed. The
company now does all it's switching at
night, and it is great annoyance to
everyone who lives in the vicinity OF the
tracks. We believe we have to put
up now with all the damage we should
be called upon to bear. We simply don't
want a switching track, where trains

DOORS"
Mr.. Edward WiIder-I don't know
why there should be any argument
about this matter at all. For every
dollar the Missouri Pacific will make
running it's switch engines up and down
the city will be benefited two or three.
By the time Mr.. Blood would be tired
listening to the switching of cars his
property would have increased in value
as a result of the business done by the
road to such an extent that he could
afford to secure a home some where
else.
Judge Horton-I am informed that
the additional traekage will not increase
the movement of cars.
Mr.. J. 3. Billard-While this matter
is up, 1 want to suggest that the north
east corner of First and Kansas avenue
is the best location for the Missouri Pa
cific depot. I would like to see COM
mittee of this club present this matter
to the officials of the road. Such a loca-
ton would accommodate the shipping
interests of this city, and would do
away with the contention about the
Fifth street site
Mr.. r. S. Brigham don't believe
the portion Of the city where these gen
tlemen reside is suitable for residence

never will be in the future. Possibly
these gentlemen are standing in their
own light because their property might
become more valuable for other pur-
poses.

IN 20 MINUTES
The Pension Appropriation Bill
is Passed Carrying S145,-
233,S3O.

Washington. Dec. 15.-The house to-
day adopted the conference report on
the bill extending the marine extension
law to sailing vessels of 700 tons or
over and providing for the licensing of
second and third mates.
Mr.. Barney (Rep., Wis.), in charge
of the pension appropriation bill then
called up this measure and made a
general explanatory statement of its
provisions.
Mr. Allen, (Dem., AIiss.). of the ap-
preparation committee, in reply to Mr..
Barney called attention to the fact that
when he first came to congress fourteen
years a go the pension appropriation bill
invariably precipitated a bloody shirt
discussion. He congratulated the cOun-
try that congress had progressed since
then and that there would be no acrim-
onious discussion of this bill. Tn ecOun-
try at last had the gratifying infOrma
ton that the pension roll had reached
the maximum. And congratulate
the country for this said Mr.. Allen in
conclusion, that while one of the most
gallant and desperate soldiers of the
confederacy (himself) helped to report
this bill, the president of the United

to rejoice" daughter and applause).
There was no further debate upon the
bill. Tt was read through without a
word of criticism and passed. The whole
time occupied in it's consideration being
less than twenty minutes. This is the
shortest time on record for a general
pension bill. The bill carries $145, 1885,

Prof. tombstone Says ''Unc1e Dave"

Prof. Paul Alexander tombstone was
seen at his business rooms, $40 Harrison

phatically that State Treasurer Hef-

money which was stolen from the lock
boxes in the state house vault.

If one were to judge from the ap-
pearance of Prof. Johnstone's business
rooms, it is an easy matter to conceive
wherein he can find little if any time
to spend in running down thieves.

arms of the senate.
Mr.. Morgan presented a memorial
from the national board OF trade favor
able to the construction OF the Mica
ragua canal, asking that the document
be printed in the congressional record.
Mr.. Allen objected and the objection
proved the basis of an animated dis
cussion involving the rules of the SEN

structiOn OF the canal. Mr.. Morgan ac-
cepted the objection as an effort to OBJ
struct the legislation for the canal and
prevent the country's securing informa-
ton on the subject

SAYING that he was favorable to the
canal on general principles, though ad-
vocating government ownership. He
predicted that the canal would cost

Railroad From Chicago to Port Roy
al, South Carolina.

Knoxville Tenn, Dec. 15.-J. B. Harri-
son, vice president of the proposed Black
Diamond railroad, today received a pro-
posal from a New York financial syndi-
cate offering to furnish the s4O000,0O0 nee
essary to build the road. The route from
Chicago to Port Royal, S. C.. was recent
ly inspected by Sir Thomas Tancred, rep
resenting an English syndicate. 1t is un-
derstood he will make a favorable report
on the survey. Mr. Harrison believes this
has made the New York capitalists seek
the bonds. He declines to state whether
the offer will be accepted; but intimates
option, as they took the initiative. The
road is now sure to be built. It will
touch Knoxville and Cincinnati.
