Tele- Railrond Men Meet to Situntion, For several years the railroads of the trans- missouri country have been engaged in an effort to do one another on coal rates, with the result that no uniform tariff could be agreed upon. Lines east of the river had their own mines to look after and protect, whilo lines west of the river were ambitious to give corporations operating mines along their properties the benefit of rates whereby they might be able to undersell eastern coals, Manipulations of declared tariffs be- camo very common, and usually one of the stable articles of consumption became & foot ball to be kicked about the street. As 1 result of the recent cut on Rock Springs coal made by the Union Pacific, which was promptly met by the Rock Island and Burlington on coal from their mines, the coal question began to assume a chaotic as- pect, and talks of conferences were heard in railroad circles. When General Manager ‘Trucsdale of the Rock Island was in Omaha last week he talked upon the coal problem with the Union Pacific people. He sug- gested that a meeting of lines be held in Omaha for the purpose of talking over the situation, with a view-of reaching an agree- ment. As a_result of this suggestion on the part of Mr. Truesdale a meeting was called yester- day at the Millard with the following lines represented: Traffic Manager Hughes of the Denver & Rio Grande, Denver; General Agent G. W. Vallery of the B. & M., Denver; General Frelght Agent Wilde of the Union Pacific, Denver & Gulf, Denver; General Freight Agent Crosby, B. & M., Vice President and General Manager Trues- dale of the Rock Island, Chicago; General Traffic Manager Biddle of the Santa Fe, Chicago; General Freight Agent Bartle, gen- eral freight agent for the Chicago, Burling- ton & Quincy lines In Missouri, General Freight Agent J. W. Johnston of the Rock Island lines east of the Missouri river. The entire day was devoted to discussing rates in the transmissouri country. In the afternoon the coal dealers withdrew from the conference to give the railroad répresentatives a chance to settle the matter among tnemselves, but they reached no agreement and adjourned to 9 o'clock this morning. At 10 o'clock another general meeting of railroad men and dealers will be held. The conference yesterday was private, but enough is known to cause the suspicion that no agreement will be reached at this time. 1k Over the ATCHISON REORGANIZ\T1O! Main Points of'the Plan Agreed Upon by the Jolnt Committae. NEW YORK, Feb. 27.—The joint reorgani- zation committee of the Atchison railroad has reached a conclusion upon the main points of the reorganization plan, which pro- vides that $10 assessments will be levied on the common stock, and $4 on the second mortgage bonds, for which an equivalent will be given in preferred stock. The existing general mortgage bonds will be exchanged for 75 per cent in new bonds and 40 per cent in preferred stock. For the A bonds preferred stock will be given at 115 per cent, and for the B bonds preferred stock will 'bo given at 120 per cent. The defaulted bonds of the St. Louis and San Francisco, the Colorado Midland, Atlantic and Pacific will bo taken up with new bonds and preferred stock at prices ranging from 25 to 90 per cent. \ The new securities to be issued under the plan are: $102,000,000 in common stock, $756,000,000 in preferred stock, $25,000,000 in prior gien bonds, $150,000,000 in general mortgages 4s and $50,000,000 of adjustment 5 per cent bonds. The provision for the issue of prior lien bonds has been put into the plan at the instance of the foreign members of the com- mittee who contend that the funds for the rehabilitation of the property could be ob- tained in no other way. Victory for the Unlon Pacific. TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. 27.—United States District Judge Riner has decided the big suf brought by the government against the Union Pacific Railroad company for ,$40,000 and thirty-three years interest in favor cf the rallroad company, The suit was brought to recover the price of the right of way of the railroad between Kansas City and Lawrence, Kan., which, when the road was bullt, was the Delaware Indian reservation.

About one year ago Mr. Mitchell received a copy of a matri- moaial paper, and it was only a few days later that he was in correspondence with a pretty southern girl, Miss Minnie Averton of Columbia, Tenn. Minnie was 21 years of age, educated, and her letters soon convinced Mr. Mitchell that she was the proper woman. to be his wife. Letters came thick and fast, and finally the two wero engaged. Tie wed- ding day was set for January 28, 1895, and was to have taken place at the home of Miss Averton in Columbia. This arrangement was set aside by Mr. Mitchell for the purpose of saving expense, and he advised his be- trothed to come to Nebraska, and they would meet at Valley and be married. Mr. Mitchell sent Miss Averton $60 the 1st of February, to pay her raflroad fare to Nebraska, and in due time received acknowledgment of the money, and that she would be here the 12th of this month. Dressed in his best Buit of clothes Mr. Mitchell was in Valley on the appointed day to meet the fair southern girl who was never to be his wife, but she Aid not arrive.
