WHAT JESSE SPALDING THINKS. His Views on the Union Pacific Rail- road Problem. Cutcaco, April 14.—A lengthy report made to the Secretary of the Interior py Hon. Jesse Spalding, a government director of the Union Pacific railway, is printed here this morning. The report is the result of personal observations made during a trip over the Union Pacific system. Referring to the alleged hostile feeling toward the compeny in Nebraska, Mr. Spalding says: “T place my opposition to the extreme views of those who appear to be bent upon embarrass- ing the present management of the system upon the broad ground that the good of the public will not be subserved by the threats they make or the course they are pursuing. The inability of the Northern Pacific to meet its obligations precipitated the panic of 1875. Let not Congress follow out a line of policy which will make it impossible for the Union Pacitic to remain solvent and which may shock the financial world in 1897. “This question ought to be settled by Con- gress at once and for all time. The company should be placed in the position of a debtor solely, and be permitted to manage its own af- ‘airs without let or hindrance from the govern- ment. National interference in its management has resulted only in embarrassing situations heretofore; it is bound to result so heresfter.” “To sum up. the Union Pacific railway sys- tem is at this time not only wisely and pri dently, but profitably managed. ‘The branches and extensions which have been constructed andthe new improvements made during the past five years have been of direct and incul- culable benefit to hundreds of thousands of people in the west and Pacific northwest, as well as tothe business of the nation in gen- eral, As @ property it is certainly far more valuable today than it was in 1835, It cannot pay the $52,000,000 or 80 which it owes the government, however, this time, but it is able to offer security equal to $34,000,000 more than the government holds now for its indebtedness, It asks an extension of time and a lower rate of interest, both of which the gov- ernment can afford to grant rather than see the property imperiled, for to imperil it would threaten the financial ruin of the thousands of people who have invested their money in the enterprise, and more than that the probable impoverishment of the hundreds of thousands who have settled upon its lines during recent years and whose interests are 80 closely woven with the prosperity of the road that they cannot be separated. The question resolves itself down to this: What is best, not so much for the Uniow Pac Rail- way Company as a corporation, but for the country at large? It seems to me that there can be but one answer to this—let Congress deal as fairly with the Union Pacitic as a business man would with a creditor who was willing and able to pay his debts if he were only permitted to attend to his business without interference or embarrassment.” a is ARCHER BAILED. He Will Not Respond to the Governor’s Summo Beare, Mp., April 14.—Ex-State Treasurer Archer was today admitted to bail in the sum of 25,000, He will not, therefore, appear be- fore the court in Annapolis tomorrow as cited by the government. ees FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, D.& H.

In the Conrt of Claims this morning Judge Richardson delivered the opinion of the court in the claim of Chas. P. Howell, passed assist- ant engineer in the navy, for longevity pay. The claim arose from a difference in the dates of the officer's examination for promo- tion and the crestion of a vacancy for him. The court decided that an officer takes rank from the time that the law entitles him to that rank and not from the date of re- ceiving his commission, In the present case the examination for promotion did not take place for four years after the vacancy was cre- ated and the oiticer was ready to be examined.

The weather crop bulletin of the signal | office says: ‘The week ending April 12 was warmer than usual in all districts, except in | northern New England, in Florida, southern Texas and on the north Pacific coast, where the | temperature for the week was about normal. | The rainfall during the week was in excess throughout the lake region, the upper Ohio Va over the greater portion of New Eng- land and in eastern Minnesota and northern New York. There was jess rain than usual in all other districts; and over a large area, in- | cluding Kansas, Arkansas, Tennessee, southern | Missouri and northern portions of Texas, Lonis- iana and Mississippi there was a total absence of rain during the week. The weather duriug the week was the most favorable of the season for growing crops and general farm work throughout the central valleys and ‘northwest, the favorable conditions extending southward to Texas and the guif states, and seeding is | progressing rapidly as far north as Minnesota | and Dakota, where the conditions were very | favorable. The dry weather in Kansas bas not unfavorably affected crops in that state. Crop prospects have improved in the south, | ‘The ight frosts which occurred in the south At- | lantic states on the 11th slightly injured tender | vegetables, bat caused no damage to staple crops. In the middle Atlantic states the weather was generally unfavorable, farm work being much retarded by continued rain and wet ground. In Virginia, however, the weather was more favorable for wheat and grass and the seeding of oats.” ALEXANDRIA.
