He then read the ordinance as revised. Ordimance as Revised. 1t provides for the issuance of bonds in the sum of $——— (probubly £300,000) to aid in the 1 of a union passenger depot with ¢ tracks anid terminals, and es for the settlement of existing diff between the Union Pacitic Railway and the city of Omaha, also for a the boud proposition and the ratification ot the proposed settlement and ordinance. It requires that the new depot shall be and all 1s now or hereaftor naving tracks or terminals here, or leasing tracks or ter- minals in this city and desiring to enter the said depot. The bonds ara to be datod July 1, 1804, running for twenty years and bear- i interest at the rate of 5 por cent to be aid semi-annually. It 1s provided that with the anoual levy shall be includea a levy to secure the payment of the interest, and that after ten years there shall be an annual levy to creato a sinking fund for the payment of the bond It is provided that on or before September 15, 1804, the Union Depot_company shall file its agreement and bond with good and s cient sureties that will secure the necessary grounds and construct and complete the depot on or before January 1, 1396, Ttis provided that the dépot shall be be- tween Douglus and Howard streets, adjacent to Ninth street, and shall be of modern architecture, and suoplied with all con- veniences and appliances used in the union depots of the country, the plans to be ap- proved by the city engincer and the mayor and city covneil.

Conditions of ffond Dellvery. On the execution of the agreement and bond exacted of the company. the mayorand comptroller shall1ssue the bonds of the city as follows: $—— (probabiy £200,000) when the grounds on the enst side of Ninth street from Farnam to Howard, and such other grounds as may be necessary shail have been not less than $100,000 shail have been expended on the new depot, the remainder of the bonds, (probubly $100,000) when the structure, together with all tracks, switches, tuvnouts, sheds and aporoaches, shgll have been completed. . With reference to the settlement with the Unton Pacific Railway company, the ovdi- pance provides that the interest of the city in the present depot site on Soith Tenth street shall be so changed as to release the depot company from tho necessity of main- taining it for depot purposes, but requiring the company to continue to use it for railroad purposes, thus allowing the company to abandon the present .siructures there and onter the proposed new depot and continue in possession of the land. The railrond Connell use company, on the other hand, is to quitelaim to the city the “Wspear triangle.” the water works lots, and carry out all the other terms of the original Connell compromise. Mention of Burlington Stricken Out. In providing that the new depot should be open to the Union Pacific and B, & M., to- gether with all other roads now or hereafter baving terminals in Omaha, it was the sense of the meetinz that the mention of the Bur- lington should be omitted from the ordi- nance, the Unioa Pacific to stand, “and two other representativo railways having terminals in Omaha” be substituted, on the that the Burlingtow's refusal to enter the depot would not defeat the pur poses of tho scheme, but that the Union Pa. cific’s co-operation was necessary 1o make it a success, When Mr, Connell reached that portion of the ordinance relating to the settlement of the Union Pacitie matters there was a hitoh ing up of chairs and closor attention given tho ity attorney as he outlined his theory for closer relations between the Union [ cifio nnd the ity of Omaha, Following the Saunders Deed. He stated that ne desired to follow the stipulations in the Saunders deed, and would invorporate into the ordinance the same stipulations as embodied iu tho Saun devs document relative to the maintenance of shops and headquarters at this pomt, re citing the cliuse word for word and attach ing thereto the safs ard that should the grounds now oocupied by the company for shopand other pucposes be sold for other than ratiway purposes, then the lands and lots revert to the grantor, He recommended the abrogation of clauses 8,4 aud 6 in the Saunders deed; clause 3 relating to the bridge ncross the Missouri and the making up of passenger and freight trains for the woest on the grounds of the com- pany at Omaha; clause 4 relauing to the building of freight and pnssenger dopots, and stipulating how much should be spent i their erection; clause 6, naving reference to the open ebaracter of the bridg all rail- roads desiring entrance into Omaha at reasonable compes Further Changes Suggested, Considerable discussion resulted over these Mr. Hamilton finally solving the problom by suggesting that the ordinance be changed 50 as to cover the new condition of affaivs, abolishing all that has bean made null by reasdn of the Union Pacific’s com pliauce with the Saunders deed. Aftor these suggestions were made M. Connell was asked to prepare the ovdinance aud submit it 0 tho officers of tae Union Pucific and then to the Jjudiciary committeo of tho countil for further sugzestions, the ordinanco 1 be aguin taken up by the in- corporators at 4 meeting to be held Friday at 4 o'clock ab the samo place. Roek laland's nings. Of twenty-four railroads that show in- g the year 1898, as compiled by the Financial Chronicle, it is luteresting to know that tho Chicago, Rock Island & Pa- citic stands fourth on the list 1 the United States, and the only railroad west of THE OMAHA DAILY se in nine roads slows o de Island’s in- shows any inc earn Pacific, with statistics, Rock Chicago that ings. The Union represented 1n_the s0 of §5.657.040, ase was $10,470 ES ON THE NEW BRID " Island OMciats Tnspect the Omaha Entrance to Omaha. Vice President H. A. Parker of the Chi- cago, Rock sland & Pacific, accompanied by W. K. McFarlin, superintondent of construc- tion of the same system, were in Omahu Tues and in company with General Superintendent Harris of the Omaba Bridge and Terminal company inspected the bridge company's tracks The visit, which was very quickly made, has given rise to many conjoctures on vhe part of railroad mon who were informed of the inspection For some time past the bridge people hav endeavored to make connections with tho Mitwaukee and Koci Island on the Council Bluffs side of the river, but met with little encouragement. Last week, however, Gen- eral Agent Nash went into Chicago, and afte talk with President Miller recor wended to A. J. Earling, general manager of the Milwaukeo, that the connection desired on the part of the terminal compiny be made on the ground that should anything happen to the Uhion Pacific bridge the Mil waikee would still b able toget into Omaha over the new bridge. It is thought that Vice President Parker of the Rock [sland came west to look into the matter of the Bridge company's ter- minals and probably arrange for a like con- nection in Council Bluffs, But back of it all there may be a disposi- tion on the part of the Rock 1sland to break away from its contract with the Union Pacific, in which event the ‘Terminal com- pany would hold the key to the situation, as its traffic agreement with the Missouri Pucific would permit the Rock Island to get into South Omaha, and by a few miles of track could easily connect with its own line to Denver. However, this visit on the par’ of the Rock Island people may only have n accidental, the theory being that the Island is niov anxious to break with the Pacific, enjoying as it does entrances nsas City, Denver and Omaba over Union Pacific tracks. It is quite e to predict that passenger trans will run over the new briago before 1895 dawns, all the indications being favor- able to that conclusion. Whether it will be oune of the ronds now in Omaha or a new road is_shrouded in considerable mystery, but the Wabash is making a connection with the Omaha Bridge and Terminal company, and it is altogether possible that it wiil cun trains into Omitha. Messrs cker and McFarlin left on a special Tuesday evening for the west. HAVE Rook East RATE TEOUBLE SETTLED, ntal Koutes Finaliy Conciliate the Canaaisn Pacifio. Cnicao, Jan. 17.—[Special Telegram to 11 BEE. |16 was announced this evening that the Great Northern road, represented by Traffic Manager Finley and General Passenger Agent Whitney, and the Cana- dian Pacifie, represented by Trafiic Man- ager Olds and General Passenger Agent Me: Nicoll, had reached an agreement which is thought to be the entering wedge in settling nscontiuental dificulties, the Great n baving offered the Canadian road an all-rail route from New Whatcom (the Canadian’s Puget Sound terminus) down to Scattle and Tacoma, on_certain conditions, and the offer, after much figuring, it is said, has been accepted. I'he Great Northern, by granting speciai divisions on both freight and passenger traflic, has placed the Canadian road in a position to quote even rates with the Great Northern and Northern Pacific on all north Pacific coast business. Iu return for this important concession the Canadian road re- linquishes its long standing claim tfor differentials. ‘The question of the Canadian Pacific can- celing its contracts with the Pacitic Coast Steamship company and discontinuing its ocenn route to Seaitle. Tacoma and points south remains in abeyance, to be considered in further conferences. Another general transcontinental confer- ence is now likely to be called, in which the claim of the Canadian Pacifie, in behalf of its Soo-Pacific route, for differentials via Vancouver and the ocean to San Francisco against the direct all-rail routes and the rail routes through St. Paul and Portland will be further considered. The Southern Pacific railway with its Shasta route holds the key to the situation in setthng up this dfMoulty. The gross earnings of the Atchison road for November were §3,475,007, a decrease of $260.570 from the same mouth last year. The total net carnings were $1,246,103, a decrease of §7.000 from 1892. In the five months from July 1 to November 30 the surplus has fallen off $653,170. WILL MAKE A FIGHT. Transcont Chicago & Northern Pacitic Bogdholders Resolve to Get the Road Back.

Cutoaao, Jan. 17.—~The prosecution in the Coughlin trial, after weeks of constantly re- curring sensutions, rested its case today. The last few hours of the state's testimony were given up largely to the identification of the murderous exhibits which had been placed in evidence. The state's attorneys had delayed proceedings us long as possible, hoping for the arvival of Scott and Joe MecLaughlin, brother of Mrs. Andrew Foy, but today they decided that he would not be present to testify und allowed the defense to begin itd work. Among 1ts last witnesses the prosecution called W. C. Voss ot the United States weather bureau, who produced reports to show that May 4 and 5, 1850, were cloudless. The defense objected to the statements, as one of its witnesses had testified that it ined on the night of May 4, aud Judge Wing succeeded in making the witness say that it might have rained in the vicinity of the Carlson cottuge without having rained at the Auditorium weather oftice, six miles Gives fternoon Assistant Prosecuting At- torney Bottum announced to the court that the case was -pructically ready for tho de- fense, but he might ask to ntroduce one move witness tomorrow, There is conslder- able speculation as to-whether the possiblo wituess is tho missing Henry Owen O'Connor or McLaughlin, but the attorneys refuse to discuss the matter. It is estimated it will ta as much time to introduce all the evidenco for the defense as was required by the state. It took about six weeks. or from Decomber 6 until the present time, to introduce the state's wit- nesses, and_should the deiense consume an cqual period, the verdict of the jury may nou be looked for until after March 1. The defense, 1t is said. will introduce some seusational testimony. Therc is a story today ~ that Police Licutenant Stifit would, when called to the stand by the defense, make & serious charge against Captain Schucttler, Stifft testified at the last trial that he saw Coughlin at the Chicago avenue station av 10:30 o'clocic on the night of May 4, thesame nour Niemann swore 'to having seen him in the Lake View salion near the Carlson cot- tage. Stifft also suid certain records in the suation showed that Cougnlin was there, but the document could not be found. 1t is now snid Stifft charges that Schuettler de- stroyed the papers to prevent their bemg used in Coughlin's defonse, and ho will so state on the stand. - ‘The caso will probably o over until Monday. : e e TELEGRAPHIG BREVITIES.

It is understood that should the troops be massed in this city, which now looks prob: ble, the Duval club will refund the money aid in for tickets and decide upon the price to be paid for tickets to the new weeting grounds after the crowd has been “sized up.” ’ The club has evidently explained their plans to the two pricipals, for tonight Cor- vett issued the following Itako this opportunity of informing friends throughout tho country that I huve received assarance from the Duval elub te v that warrants me insaying the contest be tween Mitchell and myself will positively tuke place in Jacksonvilic, or in the ims diate vicinity of that city, on January 25 viding both principals appear in the ring.

The fact that the Duval people have negotiated for a large tent leaked out, couvled with the fact that the work on the arena has been practi abandoned. This seems to indicate the battle w ke place outside the city. Governor Mitchell ad- mitted that should the contest come off out- side Jacksonville it would be impossible to prevent it. The militagy will be here on the th, however, and they will probably be unable to find the battleground and the governor will have the satisfaction of hav- ing done everything in his power to prevent the fight. A dispateh from St. Augustine tonight | says that Sheriff Perry of St. John's county has announced his determination to prevent the Corbett-Mitcnell contest. He will call upon the governor for troops if ueccessary. Noalarm is felt nere over the sheriffs declaration as iv is not believed he will know where tte battle will take plac Ofmcers Consuiting.

State Treasurer Collins Is reported as say- ing tonight that there is no money at the disposal of the state militia for the purpose of transporting troops, and if Governor Mitchell wishes to send them out he will have to foot the bills himself.

The governor listened complacently to what Mr. Boaden had to say. Then in bis quiet way he said: “Florida 1s not a rich state, but there is some money in the treasury. There is no necessity for lorida to enter into a compact with the so-called Duval club, an organ tion without a charter.

B Paso, Tex., Jan. 17.—It iy still impos- sible to get further detailsof the conflict between the soldiers and revolutionists, but 1t is certamn that there has been a battle near the Mexican Central road between here and Chihuahua. ‘Trains that reached Chihuahua today from the City of Mexico brought 600 rurales from that city. These are the favor- ite troops of President Di: nd are nous as fighters, especiaily fitted for mountain warfare. Just where these troops are bound for can not be learned. It has developed late tonight that a party was organized in this town to go down_the Rio Grande into Mexico to capture Victor Ochon and bring him to this side. The party returned today and the leader told a reporter that they found he and his band have gone to tho western side of the Mexi- can Central railrond. This man reports aiso that the whole country where he has been is ready for revolt, the people needing only some mun of force to furnish them with arms and lead them.” The reason #for the excitement in Chihua- hua, it has been learned tonight, is that Santana Perez nas been aporoaching the city from the west and Ochoa from the east, capturing several ranches and_small towns, including Santa Clara ana San Andreas, both within fifty wiles of the city. Whether an attack has been made on the city or not has not been learnéd. No mes- sage can be got over the wire giving any particulars of an engagement, should one oceur.

Wicnita, Jan. 17.—The question whether the mortznge redemption law, passed by the last Kansas legislature, is constitutional as applied to pre-existing mortgages was decided in the United States civeuit court today. The case was that of Woodman against Kreius. Judge Williams held that as to all mortgages made before the passage of the law of 1804 there 18 vo redemption, that such mortgages are governed by tho ola law, and he rendered judgment accord- ingly, Tiis is the first federal courtde ou this law Lt is a povular belief that the sta preme court has decided this question, but in all cases argued before that tribunal the court did not pass upon the real point at issue. In thoso cases judgment had been rendered by Kansas district courts befor the new law was passed, and the supreme court merely held that the logislature could not alter the terms and conditions of districy court judgments once rendered. In other words, that tho new law did not affect old contracts which had passed into judgment beiore the law went into effect. The de- cision of Julge Williams is important as in- dicating the position of federal courts on the question. § st LOUK OUTPUT, cnpolis L Smallest in MiNsEAPOLIS, Jan. 17, Miller says: ‘T'he Hour output last week was the smallest in four and a half years.
