THE UNION PACIFIC INSISTS ON ONE TC
OMAHA AND COUKUIl , BLUFFS.
Special Telegram to The BEE.
CHICAGO , May 28. There is some difficult }
between the western roads regarding freight
rates from Chicago to Council Bluffs and
Omaha , Tha agreement adopted by the gen'
era ! manar/ers last week provides that tlu
rate to Omaha shall bo the amount of th (
bridge toll higher than the rate to Council
Bluffs. This would make the Omaha rate
about three cents higher than the rate tc
Council Bluffs. At a meeting of the general
freight agent ] of the western roads at Com
miesioner Faithorn's office during the last tw <
days , to arrange the now tariff , a represent
ative of the Union Pacific took the ground
that the rates to Council Bluffs and Omaho
should bo the same , and that his road coulc
not , under Us charter , allow a higher rate tc
be made to Omaha than to Council Bluffs ,
He could are no reason why the southwesteri
lines should make the same rate to Kansas
City as the Western Freight associa
tlon makes to Council Bluffs , whet
the same amount of bridge toll applies tc
Kansas City as to Omaha , He said hii road
was willing to make a concession as regards
the payment of bridge toll aud pay its share
of that expense. The peneral freight agent
of some of the other roads strongly opposed
the pronosition of the Union Pacific , and in'
aisled that they had no right to go back ol
the managers' agreement. After considerable
talk it was decided to refer the matter bach
tn the general managers to take such action at
they maty deem necessary. The reason as
signed for the Union Pacific's objection to
make rates higher to Omaha than rates tc
Council Bluffs , is the jealousy between the
Council Bluffs and Omaha merchants. The
latter , it is stated , have lately been holding
indignation meetings protesting against the
action of the managers in making a highei
rate to Omaha than to Council Bluffs , Ontario
people claim that under such an arrangement
Council Bluffs merchants , as well as the mer
chants of Kansas City and other Missouri
river points , would have a great advantage
over them. The Union Pacific people do nol
with to incur the enmity of the Omaha people
ple , aud for this reason they are now insisting
that the rates to Council Bluffs and Omahi
should be the tame.

POSTMASTERS SAIAHIE3.
WASHINGTON , May 28. The attotnoys for
certain postmasters having complained to
Postmaster-General Yllos that the construc
tion placed by Postmaster-General Grotham
upon the act oE March 3,1883 , providing for
tbo readjustment of the salaries of postmast
ers of the third nud fourth classes , was arbi
trary and extremely unjust to the postmasters ,
in whoso behalf the act was passed. Assist
ant Attorney-General Bryant , of the post-
office department , baa carefully examined the
complicated statutes boating upon this sub
ject , and as n result of his report the postmas
ter-general has decided that , while the matter
of construction is frno from doubt , and that
while it ii absolutely certain that the con
struction of Postmaster-GeneralGceaham was
right in the prcmites , yet the rule having
been followed for two years , and something
over § 200,000 having been appropri
ated by congress for the payment of
salaries on the old ba is , ho ddea not deem it
proper in tbo strength of hia own individual
opinion , even if it were adverse , to change that
ruling. The remedy of the claimants ie
through the courts or by additional congres
sional enactment.
There was a full attendance at the cabinet
meeting to-day , Including Secretary Lamar ,
who has partially recovered from his recent
attack of slckneis. The question of author
izing n continuance of the world's exposition
at Now Orleans was again considered. The
result is shown in a telegram sent by the
president to Senator Gibson later in the day ,
of which tbo following is a copy :
"Tho question of reopening the exposition
has been considered by the cabinet and they
are unanimously of the opinion that there ie
no warrant of law for it and that It would be
inexpedient on other pronnds. "

NBW YOIIK , May 28-The steamer City ot
Koino , of the [ anchor * line , reached hero to.
day , having on board 1,821 , regular passengers.
Two French fisherman , the only survivors of
a crow of the French fishing bark , George
Jeanette , which was sunk by the City of
Homo in a collision oil the banks of New
foundland May 25. The names of the rescued -
cued are Huburt Albert and Fraz Alphoiiso
Mario.
The ill-fated vessel , after sha was struck ,
sank in Icsi than a minute , carrying down
with her twenty-four men. Capt. Munro , of
the City of Home , was too much broken up
by the remouibr.uco of the scena to glvo
inoro than u brief statement. Ills steamer
loft Liverpool on May 20 , The weather was
fine- until Monday , when , nftcr n bright
morning , n dense fog came on , It was so
thick that from the bow of the boat It wns
difficult to too a hucdrod feet ahead. A great
many icebergs were passed. Between 10 a in.
and 4 p. m. fifty-eight ucro counted.
The captain aiscrrs that the vessels
pace was slackened to half fpsedf and fully
realizing the danger , every precaution Was
taktn. Bolls were tung and whistles founded
coutinuouily. At 4:30 : when the fo # was
thickest the iccn forward saw the spars and
ma&ta of the birk appear In the mist buely
twenty feet away , 'Iho bark lay at anchor
and atcqrdlng to the captain's story was not
tinging its bell or keeping look out. Signals
to reverse the engines wore given , but thn
the steamer struck the little bark and
the iron bow cut. her through with
as little rcsittauco as If she had been a piece
of cheese. The peopla on the City of itomo
saw a few barefooted Frenchmen in fiaher-
mcns" blue blouses rushing frantically forward
on the bark. The murky air was filled with
their affrighted tries , exclamations of horror
from the deck of the steamer and the hoarse
sounding of the steamer's foghorn , and then
the bark went ont of eight. A few epars
floated on the sea and four men could be ob
served struggling in the water. Life preservers -
servers wore thrown to them and soon the
powerful steama was stopped and
backed to where tbo bark had been. Two
boats were lowered immediately. By this
time , of the four fithoimeo , ono had sunk ,
two were clinging to buoys , and n third j J
floated alongside the steamer , supporting j
himselfon a spar. Fourth Officer Turner
rigged a rope around his body , and taking
another rope had himself lowered to the man.
Turner succeeded ID getting a loop .
about the Frenchman's arm and nock.
Strong arms pulled him half way up
the side of tbo boat , when the loop
slipped over his bead and ho foil back into
the water and sank ont of eight. This man
was Captain Joseph B , Londin , cf the Ill-
fated bark. Meantime Albert and Marie
were picked up by the boat.
The steerage passengers who landed from
the City of Itomo at Castle Garden declare
with one accord that the steamer wes making :
at least fourteen knots an hour whoa the col' , ' ,
lision occurred. Every ono on
the lost vessel except Marie
was below. Marie sat near the stern keeping
a lookout. He heard the whistle of the Rome
for eight minutes before she appeared. He
rang the bark's bell and kept it up , and was
ringing It when the Home crashed into her.
Tbe lost fisherman were all married.
Charles Morgan , a steerage passenger , de
clares that the officers on the bridge were
watching the oassengers leaping and jumping
and were not keeping a proper lookout. The
official log of the steamer states that on Monday - >
day the steamer made 40S miles. A memp-
rial was presented to Capt. Munro , signed by
the cabin passengers , praising his efforts to
save the survivors ,
