A Suppressed Senate Report—The House Bill in the Senate, From the New York Times, Wasmsoron, D. C., July 30,—The unparalleled history of the relations be- tween the Union Pacific Railroad and the Government, its contempt of law, and the inside history of last winter's work, are worthy of being connectedly written 80 that the public may understand them. The road was given by the Goovernment 120 square miles af land for every mile of road, and an average of $32,000 per mile in Government bonds. In addition it was authorized to issue an equivalent amount of first mortgage bonds, The original owners of the road put into it only $218,000. From that investment they all become multi-mill- ionaires. The list included Oakes Ames James B. Alley, Thomas C, Durant, Sid- ney Dillon, Benjamin E. Bates, Oliver Ames, Grenville M. Dodge, and others whose names are alinost as well known. This $218,000 was a ten per cent sub- seription upon 21,800 shares of stook, though by the charter it was required to aid tor in full. The first contract to build 246 miles of road at $60,000 a mile was given to H. M. Hoxie, an irrespon- sible employe of the company. A month later he assigned it to Durant and four other directors of the road, who were thus negotiating the contract with them- selves. That it was an advantageous one is shown by tho fact that Peter Dey, then chief engineer estimated that the outaide oost would be $30,000 a mile. Director Reed came to him and ordered him to make the estimate $50,000. When the Hoxie contract was made, rather than to appear to approve it Dey resigned his place. Durant and his friends then bought the Credit-Mobilier franchise, and that company took their $218,000 stock, They were now mana- gers of both concerns, and the Hoxie contract was made over to the Credit- Mobilier, to be paid for in bonds and stock, the latter to be considered as worth thirty cents on the dollar, though the charter provided that none of it should be issued at less than par. This contract cost the railroad company $12,- 974,416, 1t cost Credit-Mobilter to build the road 87,806,183, leaving for the direstors from their own contract a profit of $5,168.263, Thus 246 miles were finished. Mr. Durant then con. tracted with a man named Boomer to build west at $19,600 a mile. He did so for fifty-eight miles. The directors made nothing out of this. So they again con- tracted with themselves to build the fifty eight miles now completed at $50,000 a mile. This was done. The neat differ- ence of $22,600 a mile, after paying Boomer and the equipment, they put into their Eockeu, amounting to $1,345,000. At this time 138 miles had been built west of the one hundredth meridian at a cost of about $28,000 a mile. Then an- other stroke of financiering was made. The company contracted with Oakes Ames; who turned over the contract to seven trustees for the benefit of the Cre- dit Mobilier, still identical in personnel with the road. It was for 667 miles west from the one hundredth meridian, in- cluding 138 miles already built, at prices ranging from $42,000 to £96,009 per mile and aggregating $47,025,000, These trusteos were all directors of the Union Pacific. Before this was consummated the stockholders were obliged to give proxies cn their Union Pacific stock to these seven trustees, so that for two yoars they irrevocably controlled botk corporations, On this contract the direc- tors of the Union Pacific made for them- selves from the road, as Credit Mobilier books showed, a neat profit of $20,854,- 141, Shortly afterward this contract was extended over the remaining 1256 miles of road, on the same terms, and the profit therefrom wus 87,802,084, Taking these contracts together they stood something like COST TO RAILWAY COMPANY, .§12,974,416 - 7,140,102 3,481,768 ..... 208,546,280 L T BRI e e .

In the winter of 1872.'73 this great swindle was investigated. The commit. toe ascertained these facts and reported that moneys borrowed by the corporation to meet the necessities of construction have been divided in dividends; that the s.0ck was issued, not by men who paid for it at par, but at not more than 30 cents on the dollar in road makiog; that of the government directors some have neglected their duties and some were in. terosted in these transaotions; that at least one of the commissioners apvointed by the president has been bribed to be- tray his trust for $25,000; that the chief | engineer (Grenville M. Dadge, now a director) bas been largely interested in the contracts for its construction, and t MAHA DAILY BEE- TUESVDAY, AUGUST 5 Ithnt there has been an attempt made to influence the reserve power in congress by inducing influential members of con- gress to become interested in the profits of the transaction. The committee re- ported that these abuses warranted a ro- peal of the charter, but recommended that suits be brought to deprive these stockholders and ofimn who heid stock issued at less than par of their holdings. Thin terrific report was signed by Jere M. Wilson, of Yndilnl. S. 8. Shellabar- ger, of Ohio, George F. Hoar, of Massa- chusetts, H. W. Slocum, of New York, and Thomas Swann, of Maryland, the entire committeo. Tho last is dead. Slocum is now in the house and Hoar in the senate. Does it seem strange to any one that the law firm of Shellabarger & Wilson are now the heavily retained at- torneys at Washington of the Union Pacific, with all their knowledge and ex- perience/ After the Wilson investigation in 1873 congress passed a law that no further is- sue of stocks or bonds should be made oxaopt with the express permission of congrens, save for refunding bonds which might become due. This was regarded as a complete barrier to any further “‘watering” of the company's debt. Some time after this Jay Gould obtained an Interest in the road, and finally a con- trolling one. , He also bought up the securities of the bankrupt Kansas Pacific, whose bonds was way below par and the stock hardly selling at 1 per cent. Union Pacific securitios were all dividend paying. Gould’s fine mine saw that by consolidating the two roads and making Union Pacific responsible for the Kansas Pacific i s they would rise to par and give him % handsome profit. In 1880 this job was consuammated, and Union Pacitic was londed with $14,000,000 Kansas Pacific bonds, $10,000,000 Kans- as Pacific stock, and $4,000,000 Denver Pacific stock. The stock of Union Pacific was thus increased from $36,762, 300 to 66,702,500 Then, to complete it, Gould and his _ directors issued $10,- 237,600 more, making a total of $61,000,- C00. Further, in direct defiance of law, in 1870 and 1883 over seven millions of Union Pacific bonds were issued, and an- other mortgage of fifteen millions on Kansas Pacific, a total of forty-seven millions of illegal indebtedness on which interest has been paid at government ex- pense, ‘What was boing done by the govern- ment ia this case? An inferior official of the interior department, and auditor of rai'road accounts, was nctified of the issue of new stock. He replied that no exceptions would be taken, and that ‘‘this additional capital must undoubted- l{l result in increasing the value of all the company’s property and thus fadd to the security of all its creditors,” No other officer, neither secretary nor_attor- ney-general, acted. Auditor French was then receiving a meagre salary, To- day he enjoys a large income as the reg- ular sgent of the Union Pacific before the government departments. When called upon last winter to explain why the law was broken by these issues, Mr, Dillon answered by ignoring the Thur- man act and referring to laws prior to and superceding it. While the road was thus growing so rich and dividing money little was done to pay the interest in the government bonds or provide for their principal when due. As this indebtedness in- creased the lawyers in congress began to see that unless something was done the bonds would mature and the road have absolutely nothing set aside with which to meet them, So, in the first winter of the Hayes administration, Senators Thurman and Edmunds set to work, and the result was the Thurman act, which provided, under heavy penalties and ab- solute forfeiture of the charter if not obeyed, that 256 per cent. of the net earnings and the whole of the receipts from government transportation on the subsidized lines should be turned into the sinking fund, in addition to the b jper cent demanded by the charter, and that no dividend should be paid until these requirements were duly satisfied.

The following thrilling and romantic incident is epitomized from the dairy of Sergt. Rice, one of the Greely Arctic ex. plorers: In one of the preliminary sledge parties to Hull's rést on the Gireenland side, every match but one in the party had been exahusted. The shivering “group had no hope of life save in the ability to strike a spirit lamp from the remaining match and the man now dead wrote this description: “Tho mateh snapped, crackled and showed a little flame which by dexterous management was communicated to the wood and triumphantly applied to the wick of the spirit lamp. But, great Heavens! the wick is wet from the fall- ing moisture of the tent! It sputters— fizzles—the match itself is hurned up to the benumbed fingers of the holder, when one of the agonized spectators springs from his bagjand with admirable prosence of mind, withdraws from his breast pocket & document which he holds to the expiring match in time to &’uputm ateits fire, oy 'are saved! Wo must show that the action was heroic. The paper so promptly sacrificed in the inter- THE MONITOR INVENTOR, Somo Things of Interest About Oap taln John Ericsson. The New York Herald says: Captain John Ericsson, the distinguished engi- neer whose fame has been established for a full generation, to.day completes his 81st yoar, Heis, as he has been for many years, one of the most eccentric as well as one of the most brilliant men in New York, but personally is not as well- know as he certainly would be if he did not lead a life of almost absolnte seclu- sion. It is safo to say, that to.day he wiil spend his time as usual, with head and hands on some preposter- ously audacious invention that will possi- bly in time astonish the world. From the time when his little turreted ironclad, the Monitor, engaged and des- troyed the formidable confederate iron- clad, the Merrimao, Captain Ericcson’s name has been almost a household word, but comparatively few have a notion of what he looks like or how he lives. Buried in his work, hs spends his time in his old-fashioned houss at No. 36 Beach stroet, opposite what _was once St. Johw's park, and seldom goes out to re- ceive visitors,' The house is plainly furnished, almost without ornamente, but containing numerous large working models of his many inventions. Among these aro caloric engines, the steam fire engine, astronomical instruments and ironclad war vessels. Captain Erickson looks like a page |} from one of Maryatt's novels. His voice is louder than an ordinary fog horn, and his earnest way of talking makes him seem to be gredtly excited at almost all times. When a Herald reporter called on him recently to learn something about the Destroyer, the inventor came into the parlor after some delay, and explain- ed matters very courteously. His bushy whiskers are brushed forward, but the face is shaved clean to the margin, The day was very hot but Captain Ericsson wore in his own parlor a heavy overcoat and a black silk hat with a tremendious- ly wide brim, His cravat hid his collar and shirt front completely. On the coat were brass buttons, He seems to be and says he is in the prime of life. He works incessantly, lives temperate- ly on vegetables and bread and practices strictly regular habits. So far as indi- cations go, he is likely to work for thirty or forty years longer. His latest per- fected work is the Destroyer, which he claims will demolish any other tron-clad vessel afloat. He is now engaged in solar observations by which he proposes to improve beyond question that Sir Isaac Nowton was right in his calcula- tions when he asserted that the tempera- ture at the sun’s surface was several mil- lions of degrees Fahrenheit. L —— Typhoid Germs in Intected Milk, There was great alarm recently con- cerning the milk from some of the dairy districts in the state of New York. Milk cans had been returned without washing, and in consequence there werea number of cases of low typhoid fever.

He was lookingth§ a new house on Cass avenue the o day and rubbing his hands and chuckling so gleefully thac some one asked him if he had saved $500 under the architect's estimates. *‘Oh, that isn’t my house, but I was planning how I'd get even.” ‘*With whom?" *‘The owner. I've known him twenty ears. We used to be the best of friends, {ut for the last seven years I've thirsted for revenge on him.
