the Union Pacific Railway company
will begin one Of the heaviest auction
sales of public lands ever held in the
country The lands aggregate 100000
acres and are covered by the sinking
fund mortgage given by the company
Dec. Is, 1873 TO the Union Trust COM
pany of New York as trustee. The
lands are located in Nebraska, Wy
oming, Colorado and Utah. The dispo-
sition of the property and the corfir1na-
ton of the same will practically wind
up all the financial difficulties of the
road incurred previous to the taking
control by the present management.
The number of acres and their loca-
ton is approximately as follows; Me-
braska, 10000; Colorado, $4,000 Wy
oming, 100000, and Utah, 425.000 acres.
Sherman r. Day, as special master,
will make the sale, and he will offer the
various tracts separately and then as
a whole, disposing of the property in
the manner which brings the most
money. The upset price is $4.605,0 600 for
adj the land in the four states, which
is 6,131,5 59 acres.
1t will probably requlre about thirty
days after the sale before it will be
confirmed by the United States court,
but after the confirmation the Union
Pacific company will put the land on
the market without delay.
There is little question that the prop
erty will be bid in by the Union Paci-
fic company, represented by Vice Pres
ident Cornish, who arrived in the city
today. After the sale tomorrow Mr.
Cornish will go to Colorado, Wyoming
and Utah to attend the sales of the
lands in those states. which win be held
during the week. The officials of the
Union Pacific company anticipate an
almost unparalleled influx of settlers to
these lands during the coming year.

Springville. March 5.-Springville farm

prosperous outlook for the coming sea-

have filled the natural reservoirs OF the

for the fruit and beet crops, as well as
and hay. 1t is expected that the water
master this year will be model citizen,
in consequence of natures bounty.
The season is opening well for Spring

source alone a great deal OF money will
be put in circulation. Springville mer-
chants and tradesmen will furnish most
of the supplies needed in the work on the
Provo canyon line, the contractors being
connected principally with business houses
in this city.

THE WEIsER ROAD.
Bates Has Sold Out to New York
Capital-Work to Begin.

There is report that work on the
railroad from Weiser to the Seven
Devils is to begin at once, says the
Statesman. Just what the foundation
for the report is proves difficult to de-
termine, but 1t appears that change
has been made in the directory of the
company. Some of the parties whose
names were used for the purpose of eff
fecting the organization have resigned,
to give place to others, and it is as
serted that the new men are financially
equipped to push the work.
One story is that T. w. Bates. the
promoter of the enterprise. has sold out
to a gentleman named Hail of New
York. The latter is. said to be the rep
resentative of a party of capitalists
who have taken hold of the enterprise.
Mr.. Bates, it is said, is to get the money
for his interest as the work of construc-
ton progresses
One story is that a contract is to be
let at once to build the road to. the
Weiser canyon, and that the line will
then be carried on from that point

Cheyenne, Wyo., March 5.-There is a
serious condition of affairs at Iron
Mountain, on the Cheyenne & North
ern, as the result of many billiards and
deep SHOWS in this section during the
past month. The train which left Chey-
enne week ago yesterday. and which
stuck in the snow at Iron Mountain,
forty miles north of here, on the return
trip last Thursday, is still snowbound.
Today Superintendent Rasback, who is
on the train, sent in an urgent appeal
for aid. There are forty persons on
the train, five of whom are women, and
several, including Superintendent Ras-
back, are i'll. The supply of provisions
at neighboring ranches has been eX-
hausted and there is nothing left on the
train but few beans and a little coffee
for the now-famishing passengers. OF
seven men who left the train Friday,
three reached Cheyenne last night and
another arrived this afternoon. The
last one to come in is in an almost
helpless condition, having walked the
entire distance here without food. The
relief train which left here this morn
ing with 100 shoVelers and a supply of
provisions had not reached the impris-
oned passenger train at 10 o'clock to-
