Supt McMiIlan's Annual Shows an
Increase at the Onion Depot.
Supt. Mcmillan of the union depot, is now
preparing his annual report which will be
submitted to the Union Depot company about
Jan. 15. 1t will show, by comparative tables,
that the business OF the union depot in 1888
was greater than for similar period in Its
history. More passengers passed through the
depot than ever before, more baggage was
handled than was ever handled within
year and there was a heavier freight traffic
than ever in the history of the Northwest.
The United States mail was larger than
The klondfke fever was responsible In the
early part of the year for an unprecedented
volume of travel and for the immense amount
of baggage that passed through the depot;
later the rate wars between the transconti-
mental lines and between the st. Paul Chit
cago lines created an unusual desire In the
public to travel. Every, one who could afford
to took advantage of the low rates to visit
the West, ard those in the West went East
The travel in both directions last year was
exceptionally heavy. q
And all this travel and traffic was handled
at the depot without mishap. Even during
the PAST five months, while the depot has
been torn up and disfgured with scafolding
and danger spot there has been no acct
dent to a passenger. This is a matter upon
which MIR Mcmillan, as well as others, may
congratulate himself.
The depot is taking shape and within a
month the workmen will have finished their
labors and the depot will be turned over to
the company complete and In good order.

FAST MAIL FLYERS.


Contest Between Burlington and
Northwestern Is Now On.
CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-SteeI and steam fought
steel and steam In the great fast mail contest
tonight. How the race from Chicago to
Omaha ended cannot be told until morning,
for Northwestern and Burlington trains do
not reach Omaha until then. But when last
heard from both fast mail trains were in
Central Iowa, flying westward at better
rate than mile minute.
The Burhngton's fast mail left Chicago at
$780, The new flyer OF the Northwestern
road left Chicago one-haH hour later. The
Burlington is due in Omaha at 1856 and the
Northwestern at 8:15 tomorrow morning. AS
the government makes no mail contracts with
the railways for any stated period, under the
rules and regulations the Northwestern has
only to give faster service to Omaha for seven
days than does the Burlington, to demon
strate that 1T is entitled to half of the mail
contract, if not all of it. But If in the seven
days the Burlington maintains its fast sched-
ule and does better than the Northwestern,
then the latter has no right TO demand a
change.

coast to Omaha within the time planned, both

Grip Has a Strong Hold Upon Resi-.
49, dents of Washington.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-The grip
and the ailments attendant upon 1t
that are now included in it's train Of
ills has Frustrated an unusual number
Of residents Of Washington. At all the
drug stores, which are the real barom-
eters Of the state of public health, the
records are the same. that there were
never SO many prostrations or so many
calls for remedies which are supposed
to be specific for diseases of the mu-
cous system. An observant pharmacist
estimates that 10 per cent of the dis
trict's population is suffering in one
way or another from the now generic
grip. Three members of the senate
committee on appropriations are now
SO i'll that they will not be able to leave
their homes for several days. These
include Senators Sewall and Cockrell,
both of whom have been sick for two
days or more, and Senator Allison, who
has the grip, and is keeping to his room
to avoid more serious consequences.
Senator Turpie, of Indiana, is recov-
ering from an attack Of pneumonia,
and for several days has been able to
sit up. 1t is not likely he will go to
the capitol for at least two weeks.
or the justices of the supreme court,
one, Justice Gray, Is sick with grip; Of
the United States court Of claims, Jus
tice Weldon Is afling; Of the district
court Of appeals, Chief Justice Alvry
and Justice Morris are both afflicted,
and Of the justices Of the district SUI
preme court, Chief Justice Bingham
and Justice Cox are sick
The present freezing spell, 1t is hop
ed, will have a benefcent effect in
stopping the effects of the grip.

WILL HANDICAP SANTIAGO.
Order to Transmit Entire Customs
Receipts to Havana.

Receipts to Havana.
SANTIAGO, Jan. 2.-An order has
been received from Havana which, if
enforced, will mean, in the Judgment of
the commercial classes here, meal
culable damage to the province. 1t is
direction to transmit the entire GUS
toms receipts each week to Havana
Compliance with such instructions
would involve the abandonment of
many necessary public Improvements,
especially in the matter Of roads and
water works. Since the American oc-
cuFation began these funds have been
used for such purpose, and have been
the principal means Of meeting the
necessary expenditures. The Heraldo
says that to carry out this order would
rob 10000 Cubans of employment most
OF whom would probably take to the
hills and become bandits, having no
other recourse. Robert T. Mason, Brit
1sh consul at Santiago, says it was
SPANS practice of monetary centrali-
cation which caused most of her
troubles in Cuba
Gen. Leonard Wood, United States
military governor of the department,
on being asked to express his opinion
on the meaning of the order, declined
to be interviewed, but, it is reported,
without offering any criticism of the
policy which dictates the order, he has
shown his annoyance at the POSSIBLE
ity of a stop being put to the good
work being done in the province. The
local taxation fund is barely sufficient
to meet the expenses of the city. There
is nothing over for important improve
ments, and the customs receipts are
considered by competent judges to be
absolutely necessary for the successful
management of the province.
Popular excitement among all classes
over the order is increasing The
chamber of commerce. the Sons of Vet
Grams, the supreme court and the San
Carlos club have called meetings to
take action; and each organization will
cable Washington an earnest protest
against what is described as the sui
c.dal policy Of centralizing money at
