The nppilntmcnt of two additional re ceivers for the Union Pacific system is now n certainty , General Co win said last evening that the petition would bo filed In the United States court today. Hoyond thU statement ho de clined to talk on the subject. Kceeiver S. II. II. Clark arrived homo last evening from the east , but refused to bo in terviewed. General Solicitor Thurston reached homo yesterday morning nt 10 o'clock , directly from Now York , nnd went on to Denver to participate In the argument of the cnso in which ox-Oovcrnor Hvans of Colorado is sccklne to secure independent iceoivcrshlp tor the Union Puslllc , Denver & Gulf company. Mr. Ttiurston said : "As the result of friendly negotiations between the onicors of the government and the parties interested in the receivership of the Union Pacific Bystoni a satlsfautorv agreement lias been reached under which the government will ilia Its petition Monday morning in the United States court , In effect ratifying the receivership and asking for the appointment of two additional receivers. Agreed Upon. "Tho ncrsons agreed upon are J. W. Doano of Chicago and F. K , Ooudcrt ot Now York City , both of high standing nnd reputation throughout the country. Mr. Donne is one of tlio principal hankers of Chicago , and Is nt present a government dlrontor of the Union Pacific company. Mr. Coudcrt is ono ot the leading lawyers of Now York City , nml rnnrpflontntl thn pnvrcriiniRIit of the United States before the Bering Sea Inter national tribunal. The entire personnel of the receivership as thus constituted fur nishes abundant evidence that all por- AQDS Interested in the stocks nnd securities of all the different roads in the Union Pacific system , including the interests of the government , will be fully protected and fairly dealt with and the properties will bo operated and ad ministered In a reasonable and conservative manner. This action looks toward the re organization of the properties in such n man ner as to deal fairly and justly with all bond holders nnd in a way to protect the best in terests of the government concerning its debt. Such a reorganization could only bo effected bv help of congressional legislation , the details of which have not yet oven been considered. Blmlliir Act Inn I > l nnherc. "Similar action will be taken In nil of the courts whcro receivers have been appointed nnd undoubtedly within a very few ( lays all live of the receivers will bo prepared to act together. "I ain not prepared to make any official statement , but it has been tlio general understanding that Mr. S. II. II. Clark wouid contlnuo to direct his practical man agement and operation of the lines , and that Mr. Oliver W. Mink would contlnuo to direct nil accounting matters. In fact , the petition of the government states that the entire time and services of , one receiver will bo necessary in directing'tho management of the property and the 'Cntiro time and services of another in administering the ac counts , and that thereby a necessity arises for the appointment of addition ; . ' . ! receivers in order that the work rif admlnistorini ; the trust may bo fully provided for and the in terests of all parties , ihcluding the govern ment , protected. Tlio live receivers will really act as a board of directors for the Administration of the properties. TliliikH U Will Satisfy "Tho receivers have opened ah ofllco at 30 Wall street. New York City , whom Mr. K. Cilery Anderson will probably remain most Jf the time. I think this action , assented to bynll the parties In interest , will thoroughly satisfy congress and the countrv that it is the purpose of the Union Pacific and its niDcillnri' coninnnlps tnrlnil : with t.hn nrnhlpm of the government debt in the fairest possi ble manner , and It is hoped that this receiver ship will finally result In n com pic to re organization of the entire system In such a manner as to deal fairly with all the bond holders and with the government without compelling the owners of the different mort gages on the different lines to foreclose their liens , which would undoubtedly result in disintegration of the property , the destruction of a very large part of its value as n whole , nnd'in all probability thu loss to the United States of nearly or iiulto Its entire - tire debt.

" said tlio fcon- oral attorney Of ai great railroad system , to a St. Lotus Globo-Uomocrnt man. The conversation loading up to this remark had been upon the subject of the enormous amounts tlio railroads of the country had paid out , 'anil would still have to pay , consequent upon tlio unparalleled series of disasters by rail that occurred during the year 189i ; , and especially within the past six months. "There are all sorts of jokes about our claim agents being surgeons , who coihproinibo witli the victim while hotting a broken limb , and the purchase or Indemnity waivers from passengers at the depot bdtoro the train pulls out. Those are , Inwovor , American plca an- trios , that have no weight with any one. Seriously , however , this ilom of per sonal damaged is ono of the heaviest expenses that n railroad company lias to moot.

As a matter of fact , wo no longer run over as much ' 'blooded stock" as for merly. Time was when the most valu able boara in the world wore allowed to forage in the swamps of southeast Missouri , but I think that the Iron Mountain killed all the $1,500 hogs , and they are now raising the plain razor-back , rarely worth $20 each. There is a better feeling between the farmer and the railroad nowadays.
