UNION PACIFIC 1N CONGRESS Steps to Beonre the Olaims of the People Against the Gompany in Progress. MEASURE BEING PREPARED IN COMMITTEE Senator Faalkner Gives Reasons for the Actions that Have Been Taken by the oteet 1ts 1 ts in the Road. Government to WasiiNaToN, Nov. 15, —It is evider fntention of the administration to jea protect the interests of tho government in the Union Pacific railroad, and the commit- tee of the two houses which has this matte in charge is already giving it earoful atten tion, with a view to proposing new legisla- tion on the reconvening of congress. ‘I'he senate committeo on railronds, of which Calvin 8, Brice of Ohio is chairman, 1s hold- ing conferences with Attorney General Olney with the hope of perfecting a bill which can be introduced in December, and which will protect the grovernment's intc nts that might ship. Senutor Faulknor »f this commit- tee, said toduy: “Wo are preparing a bill af- fecting the matter, which wall be introduced at the beginning of the session, but the de- tails of which wo have not by any means agroed on. I think that wo all feel that the interests of the srnment should be care- fully guarded, and as to the present re- ceivership wo beliove that the majority of receivers should by all means be appointed by the governtent. This is the only way in which the iuter- ests of the government can bo preserved, be cause receivers' certificntes, it must be re membered, are a prior loan over everything else, even the time honored claims of the government. S0 of course if ivers' cer- tificates are to bo d to run the road y should be issued by men who will nov ht of the interests of the government. “This can only be done by having a majority of the receivers government men, Tt is the intention of the committee to see that the rights and claims of the govern- ment shall be respected at all times.” ests from any embarrassi grow out of the late recei Tn regard to the matte: GIVING THEM TROUBLE. Lines East and West of Chicago Bothered Over Time Schedu] Cntcaco, Nov. 15.—The lines east and west of Chicago are just now having a deal of trouble over the time tables of their through trains. Beginning next Sunday the Michigan Central and Lake Shore trains will run from New York to Chicagoona schedule of twent hours, ono hour longer than at present. This will land their tnrough trains in Chicago at about b p. m., too late to make good connection with the through trains westbound from this city. The western roads declare if they 1 n hour off their running time, waiting for the New York trains, it will disarvange the transcontinental scheaules, which can- not for & moment be thought of. The only out of it for the western ling funore their connections with the Vander- bilt lines and run on their present schedules or leave Chicago at the same hour as at present and run through in one hour less t1ime. To the latter alternative the western lines object on account of the increased ex- pense it will entail. ( ral’ Passenger Agent Ruggles of the Michigan Central declared today that the new time table on the eastern roads will surely go into effect Sunday and that the western lines must make the best of it. All the western lines have announced their intention of meeting the action of the Umon Pacific in paying issi round-trip business from California points. At a meeting of tho Western Freight asso- viation today the most important matter under consideration was the division of rates between Chicago, Peoria, Mississippi river points und stations on the line of the Wyoming Transportation company. The divisions will be based on the local rates from Chicago, Peoria_and St. Louis to the Missouri river. g DY A NEW YOKK TRUST COMPANY, Suit to Foreclose Certuin Northern Pucific Mortgages Heard in St. Paul, i . 15.—Before Judge Henry C. Caldwell of the United States circuit court yesterday the Farmers Loan aud Trust conpany of New York, as trustee of the bondholders, filed a petition against the Northern Pacific Railway company ou com- nt of Willia Shelton et al. for the losure of what are known as the “sec- ond general” and the “consolidated gencral” mortgages. all made to the Farmers Loan and Trust company, and upon which inter est became due and was defaulted October 1, 1803, The first general mortgage, securing bonds of the Northern Pacific to the amount of #3,000,000 on the entire Northern Pacific property, is held by the Cenwal Trust com- pany of New York and is prior to all the other mortgages sought to be closed in this fon, and is not in default. The Central 18t company is ot party to this suiv and its mortgages are not inuny way affected, “I'he bill of complaint asks the foreclosure of the three first mentioned mortgazes and for the appointment of recelvers to take posses- sion of and operate the road until such time as it may be sold under the foreclosufe pro- ceedings. Judge Caldwell said he would make an order appointing the same receivers hereto- fore appointed in the previous suit and under date of August Ordered to K KaNsas Ciry.Nov. 15, State Board of Raulroad Commissionor: torday made an order commandiog the Missourl Pacific to restore its passenger train service betwoen “Topeka and Fort Scott, Some months since the road ook the passenger trains off and substituted mixed trains, giving as its r sons that tho line was not paying operatio expeuses and that it was nec Yy to practice ccono; Then the people along the lue potitionod the board to compel the company to restore passenger trains, It is not probable that the company will submit to theorder without & test of the ¢ise in the courts. Snould the company maintain its case in the courts other ro which are doing u losing business on bran lines will also take off their passenger trains.
