Morley, Chiof Engineer of this divieion of tho road, which bas heen In- eorporated as the Bonora Unllway Company (limited), follows ‘by tomorrow's steamer, and building operations will commence at once, An English vessel, which Is frolghted with tho rails for tho road, is due ot Gunymus ina few weoks. A reporter of the Chrontele interviewed Mr. More Jey at his oifice yestorday concerning tho pros- pects of tho road and tho Intentions of the bulliders. Mr, Morloy stated that bullding on the Moxican Division -would somimenes ot Guayrins finmodintoly upon his Arrival thoro, Operutions along the Mo Grando, south of Atbuquerque, were boing pushed forwar@as rapidly ag possible, the track laying progressing at tho rate of amie and a half per day. "The rond would leave the ito Grande 160 tilles south of Albuqiterque and cut iu a southwesterly direction neross the south- easterly portion of Arizona, from where it would be -curried down in nn almost straight tne through Kanera to Guaymas. All the riils bad ntracted for in Lrvland, but the miseci- supplies would be brought from San. Francisco. Mr. Morloy atated that the Company: owned one of the most valuable franchises in the country; that anor. had plenty of capi- tal under command, and within eighteen months itwasexpected that tho whole line would bo comploted and the road open to triye sidy and a franchise for the Sonora 1 been eceured frum the Mexican Gay ut no Inne ernment, ‘ants had o8 yet. heen mado to the Communy, this question belhy still underthe cone aiderution of the Mexteah Congress, As soon ns tho iain line was completed, the Compnny would tttrn thedr cnorgics towards iukdtng wong tho thirty. tifth pitratiat, following the survey ai the Atlintic & Pavitls [allway Company, with which the Atchison, Tupeka & Banta 6 bad cone soliduted, ‘This arm of tho rond would be care ried to San Francisca, Mr. Morley. expressed somo doubts, however, whether a ‘branch lino would bo bitilt to Sar Diego very soon. ‘The Company would bulld wherever commerce nd trattiy would demonstrate a branch lane to be n good Investment. Ban Diego ¥as 8 youd harbor ad s road there might pay. But things were slightly mixed. Tho Sau Diego people thought themsctlyes badly used becatse the Directors did not push operations northwant with a single oye for their, town. When Directors Wilbur and Pratt were at San Diewo last full, thoy tad nego- ‘unted with the town for terminnl facilities, and. contracts had been made, but their ede des pended and was conditional upon the building of the road. The Company: had thorefore got. nothing fram Ban Dicxo. He tad reecived no information or inttmution from Boston concern ing tho effect which the action of tho Chamber of Commmeree fn this clty tuok fn the mutter of terminal facilitles for the rewh Me, Balen. then discoursed upon the prospects of the road, wanted thit tho detance from the Atlintle to the Pactiie would be shortened 600 miles by thelr rontd, and tho distance to Austratin from Guay- Tas 1,000 miles Iess than froin San Francisco. The mala trade of Guaymas at present was whent export. They counted lurgely on the cout trado of the whol Pacitic Coast.’ Sonora wus rich In authracite coul, and vessels would al- ways he sure of return freight from that port. They would thorefore control much of the ex- port trade to tho East, 08 shippers would always prefer tocome te a port where thoir vessels need not be lying idle waiting for pore Cn Itwas a question with the Company whether thoy" would run usteamer line to Sun'Franclsco ortot. The Innds of Sonora: within fifty miles of the cout were not fit tor agriculture, but they were good fov graziug nnd rich In minerals, ‘The in- terlor country, however, was gond farming land, North of Guaytias irrigtion was necessitry, but south of that place twa crops per yenr could caslly be ralsed without Irrigation. ‘Che valleys wero very fertile, and tho whent crop alone suse tulned tho comtnerce of tho whole province, Mr. Morley thought that emigration to Sonoran, might bo ‘udvisablo if tho emigrants could be brought to reilizo that hued work uwalted thom, To expect thut they would fall inte the arms of prosperity was folly, and colonles organiz- ing with such expectations would inevitably break up unter tho: consequent disappoint= ment. Tho Railread Company, althougn de- sirous of peopling the country in order to stimulate trade and“ to cultivate its re- sources. hid no direct interest whatever in semigration, On this hond his directions wero very oxplicit. He bud only just received 2 com- niubleation from the Company's attorney at Hoston, informing him that the Company ‘had noted with pleasure hig determinution to organ. ize bis forcy by keoplug.out all tilbusters. Tho Company owned two valuable, franchises | tn Mexico, that of tho Mexican Central and the Sonora Kallway’ Compatiica, and the manages ment hellove, that ib would he for their own interest as. well ng for tht of the United States that tho {nteyrity uf tHe Mexican Governinent should be maintained. It should be ‘tho con- dition under which all men should be bores, that no talk ngaingt tho Government would be vcountenanced, the utmost prudence must be maiitained, and everybody, no matter bow yatuable hia gervices tight bo, should be. Anineeiatahy Hipeatzed who violated this rile, Mr. Morley stated that ho would havo this lotter printed in clrewlue forin and posted up in Guaymas, The ‘country for 250 miles northwest of the City of Mexico was. thickly Populated, but further north tb beenne thinned, fo hnd spent soveral months among tho Sonor people. aud overybody wus favornbly inclined towards the railroad and tts projectors. ‘Tho leading men of Sonor know that the road would stlinulate trade immensely, ‘The country hud: been raided and robbed durtae he French Intervention by the Apaches and Mibysters, but tho Inhabitants were not animated by any antl. Americnn feeling, and if Americans wold but refrain from meddling with tho politics of tho country no difiicuitics or ill-fecting would ever arise. Nativo Inbor would be omployed for building the road, and, should that prove in- adequate, Chinese would bo imparted, In his opinion, Guaymas would) become an important commercial contro within a very fow years.

A COMPROMISE, Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Wasitnotox, D, C., April 10.—Tho Demo- cratle Senntora were in catcts again to- day for four hours, and the result of the three days’ conference Is what 1s called a com- promise, The Senators have deciied not to vote to postpohe the Spofford-Kellosg ensa until the next session, and have agreed that it shall be taken up this session about the 20th of April, It {3 not so clear, however, that the decision of the caucus ta to be regard- ed as an affirmative declaration that tho Kellogg case shalt be considered now. On the contrary, the decision appears to be that the regular business {s to be followed until the 20th of April, within which timo final action Is to be taken upon the Geneva Award DAM, and that on tho 20th discusston of tho advisabtiity of proceeding with tho Kellogg ease mny be revived In caters, THE AnGUMENTS to-day are sald to have been very animated, and In the general line of argument of the Preceding caucuses. It was to-day made more clearly apparent, however, that thero areanuimber of Demovratic Senators who. on constitutional grounds are opposed to the reopening of the ense.’ In the course of this debate it was made definitly to appear that the following Democratic Senators do not dvelleve that’ the case can con- stttutionally bo reopened: Thurman, Bay- ard, Lamar, Pendicton, Ransom, Hampton, and Butler, of South Carolina, These Sena- tors all expressed themselves to that effect In caucus to-day, Thoy did not, howover, go so farastosny that If the Domocratiy mn- jority should decide to unsent Kellogg that thoy would . MOLT THR CAUCUS DICTATION. It would be very extraordinary, however, for some of these men to take the position that they have taken, and yet, If n final vote does come, to vote with the faction led by Ben Ill, Saulsbury, and Jonas, Should tho Democrats press this case to a vote it would only bo necessary for four Democrats to vote with the Republicans to prevent the success of Ben IIill’s plan to unseat Kellogg, and fully twice that number are known to be opposed to such action, To: this number must be added David Davis, who, although he does not attend the Democratic caucuses, for once 18 VERY OUTSPOKEN, declaring that if any caso was ever res adjud- feata or n settied matter In the Senate, then the title to Kellogg's sent is one, Probably one of the most amusing speeches in the caucus to-day was that of Saulsbury, of Delaware. This fussy old gentleman is Chairman of the Elections Committee, and his notions of the dignity of his Chairmanship and of the importance of his Committes ara only equaled by the intensity of his parti- snnship, At all thesa cateuses he has re- sented the interference of Democratic Sena- tors with the Elections Committee. Santi bury to-day asked the caucus how they wera to regard the money expended in the Investl- gation of the Kellogg case as an investment if ‘the cnse was ngt to be heard. A great deal of money had been spent, ho sald, and ‘was that ALL TO BE THROWN AWAY? The decision probably amounts to a post- ponement. The ndyoentes of immedinte consideration of the case, led by Hill, Sauls- bury, and Voorhees, were numerically In. a majority ond might have carried thelr point, ns it soomed yesterday thoy would, but the conservatives, who are opposed to reopening the case, togethar with others who aro utterly opposed to taking up the caso now, made a threatening demonatra- ton which sbronght the majority to terms, it Is understood that there ata at least. ten Demveratic Senators who, rather than allow tha cnso to_be precipitated on the Sen- ate, will support Kellogg. This amounts to A DEFEAT OF THE OTHER PANTY, who, in such a contingency, would find them- selves in a hopeless minorily.
