UNION PACIFIC ACCOUNTS MIXED, Court Orders thut Leavenworth, To Sonthern Business e Separate ollowing the lead of the Orezon Railway & Navigation company in asking that a sep- te account be kept on the part of the Union Pacific system, the Leavenworth, To- a & Southwestern has also been granted separate account by Judge Dundy, but upon totally different grounds. The Leaven- worth, Topeka & Southwestern extends from Leavenworth, Kun., to Meridan Junction, adistance of some forty-six miles whoily within the state of Kaunsas. This voad, op- crated by the Sante Fe, in Judge Dundy’s opinion did not come within the operation or control of the receivers, and not desiring to make his agents responsible for moneys and rolling stock over which they had no control, issued the order granting the Leavenworth, Topeka & Southwestern a separate account- ing. The road has hardly paid operating e: penses, and has been a weight of consider: ble proportions upon the Union Pacific, as in the case of the Gulf system, But the chanees ordered by the court in the manner of keeping :\cco\mls,rn‘-‘ A source of constant worriment to the suditing de- partinent, although thoroughly nformed as to the necessities of each of the cases where- in separate accounts have been announced. When the order came for_a separation of the Oregon Railway & Navigation com- pany’s account the svstem of keeping the ccounts was changed from the “invoice plan to the *bill” manner, dealing with all matters originatiug on the Union Pacitic for the Oregon Ruilway & Navigation company as if intended for a foreign corporation, as the Burlington, in the matter of repairs to cars and other features which constantly occur on & big rail- road system. The embarrassments in the accounts are clearly descornible when 1t 18 recalled that prior to October 13, when the Union Pacific passed into the hands of the receivers, the ‘“‘invoice” feature ob- tamed, which is edingly simple as com- pared to the “bill’ manner with voucher attachment, which followed immediately after the appointment of receivers by Judge Dundy. The accounts under these circum- stances are decidedly mixed and, in the language of onoe of the men in the auditor's oftice, “we donot know where we are at.” Yesterday Mr. Young kept the wires hot be- tween Oma id Boston over the complica- tions that ave coustantly occurring uader the *bill” system, and he asked Mr. Mink to issue a supplemental order changing back to the “invoice” plan, a circular to that effect having been practically agreed upon. ok & COLORADO hr\\l‘"()lyhn RATE: Their Demoralizatio to Arrange Matters, KANsAS CiTy, Jan. 19.—A general demoral- ization of the Colorado east bound rates is threatened and Secretary MeCullough of the transmissouri passenger committee today iscucd a c1ll to the general passenger agents of the lines intercsted to mect in Kansas ity Monday in order to adjust affairs be- fore they gone too far. Colorado rates have been somewhat trou- blesome for some ‘Time. the action of one or wwo of the transcontinental. lmes m - with- drawing from the association has made it very dificult to adjust consequent differ- ences. For several weeks past it nas been known that the brokers of Denver huve pracucally been muking the rate to cer tun Missouri river poiuts, and therc is danger that Denver agents may meet the reduction over their counters if something I8 not done to rectify the matter, According to present rate sheets, the rate from Colorado common points’ to St Joseph, for example, is the we via Kunsas City a8 vhe rate is to Kan- sas City.

The leader of the train robbors enjoyed the joke and aliowed a streak of benevolence to flit through his heart. “There i in it for you, boys, he replied, ‘out I'll give you each a drink.’ Suiting the action to b s e drew a round shoul- dered bottle from his hip pocket, placed it on the platform step of one of the e and invited the train crew to take a drink, oneat a time and rest their arms, The crew demurred and said that ‘it was agamst or- ders to drink while on duty, but the train robber smiled quietly and said: ‘Well, you fellows can cousider yourself off duty just at present.” The robbers never lowered guns once during the conversation, and the train crew concluded o )t the theory in order to getfan opportunity to rest their weary arms.” Church Howe is at_the Paxton and has settled the union depot controver: concludea to_have the structy the foot of Farnam strcet. “That i only place for the depot.” remaried the pro- spective congressmatefrom the Firstdistrict, ve furmers will then have no dificulty in bringing our cggs uptown in a basket The way it is now weare liable to brealk them in traversinz the alleys and groping around under the viaducts' trying to- get somewhere, and it has necessitated doing our shipping by freight, but with a depov on a level with the rest of the world, at Ninth and Farnam, we can come in with' a_basket of fresh eggs on our’arm and get them to market while they are still warm,” Mr. Howe is seheduled toappear in Lincoln, Feb- ruary 21, and subwit to the ordeal of being elected state commander of the Grand Army of the kepublic, “The convention of the Congregational Home Missionary society to be held in Omaha is of greater importance than gener- ally anticipated,” said A.

A Mississippi planter has discovered an effective method of dealing with Eng- lish sparrows. Finding that their dep- redations on his cotton crop threatened 10 be serious he took some wheat, soaked it in sweetened whisky and strewed it along the rows. The sparrows soon found it and in a few minutes theve was alot of drunken English sparrows in that cotton vatch. They rolled about on the ground, falling on’ their sides and backs and kicking their heels into the air like a parcel of drunkards, all the while uttering the most comical squeaks, They did not have long to mgllenk hLow? ever, for the boys gathered them up and threw them into bags. The first day they gathered two bushels of drunken sparrows. Three or four days later the experiment was repeated with almost equal success and from time to time since. They made excellent potpie, but the survivors have evidently come to re- gard the plantation as hoodooed, for now very few come about it e e Rallie Me \lister Welghed 750 Pounds. Sallie McAllister, a colored woman, died recently at her home in Springficld, O. She was, doubtless, the largest woman in the world, and in early womanhood soon “‘outgrew” the position of cook. A showman, who had an eye for money-making business, hearing of her avoirdupois, made an engagement with “Fat Sallic,” and together they traveled from land to land. He dressed her well: in fact. did everything for her comfort and enjoyment except to divide profits. At one time Sullie weighed 750 pounds. She was conveyed from depot to depot while on_her tours in an arm- chair of large dimensions which was placed in a wagon, and as she was en- tirely too large to get through the door of any passenger car she was taken through the sliding doors of the baggage car, and rode there inher own armehair, She was a kind, amiable and good woman., The coffin in which she was buried could not be got into the body of a big two-horse farm wagon. il Niearagua Canal Keorganizition, NEW Youk, Jan. 19,—A meeting of the re- organization committee of the Nicaraguu Canal company was held toduy at the ofiice of the committee.
