The plan of reorganization of the Union
I'ndlic system as outlined In yesterday morn-
Ing'a HF.K lves general satisfaction at headquarters -
quarters , nssurinf nt it docs an Impartial
nnd fair consideration ol nil the Interests In
volved In a property whoso Indehtcdncss
touches nearly K'-W.OOO.OOO.
UutHio plan does not necessarily contem
plate any hasty notion on the part of the
reorRaimatlon committee In removing the
servants of the court from tholr positions as
receivers. In point of fact , the receivers
may hold ofllco Indefinitely , or uutll such
time as M the Indebtedness of the company
lias been taken can ; of.
The commltteo of rcariMtilration , in the
opinion of a well known lawyer , will only
attempt to hrltiR all tlio Interests of the road
together upon some general tilan of financing
the company. This may include the Issuing
ol now mortgages , the .scaling down of the
Interest , the 'extension of the government
Hen , and the satisfactory equlpmunt of the
L-ravo financial problem with the smaller
holders of Union 1'aclllu securities. A llrst
mortgage holds seniority over a government
Hen , while a government Hen holds priority
over a collateral trust note. Tlicso Inter
ests can ho united probably upon some
general plan of reorganization whether
the little follows who hold Union Vaciflc se
curities will ngroo to a compromise on a loss
i-.Uo of Interest , Is ono of the questions
which the committee must decide for itself
after the most careful canvass of the situ-
utlon.
' Herein lies the greatest danger of fore
closures,1' us the attorney remarked. "To
Keep the property from disintegration the
present interests would have to arrange for
the purchase of these claims or a now com
pany would have to ho reorganized for the
purchase , The govornhiont also might con
clude to ho a party to the schema of securing
a larger interest In the system , in which
ovcnt it would como in us a private parly and
take Us chances with the rest.

There is trouble brewing for the "low
joints , " as the local passenpisr agreement is
called , and something may bo hoard to drop
In the not remote future. Yesterday the
members of the local agreement held a meet
ing t the oftlco of the secretary , .lames W.
Miinn of the Klkhorn , and after reducing
the secretary's salary to a small pittance
proceeded to rearrange the manner
of voting under a. decision of Chairman
Caldwell of the Western 1'assengor associa
tion , who apportioned the rotes ns follows :
Northwestern , 3 ; Turlington , 3 ; Hock
Island , 1 j.Missourl Pacific , \Vabash 1 ; , 1 ;
Milwaukee , 1. In giving three votes to the
Northwestern the chairman held that the
KlUhorn , Chicago. St. Paul , Minneapolis &
Omaha and the Northwestern were each
entitled to ono vote , while the three votes
for the ; Burlington included the IJ. & M. in
Nebraska , tlio Chicago , Burlington &
Qmni.v and the Kansas City , St. Joe &
Council DlufTs.
1'ho Milwaukee and Itock Island seriously
object to this unfair arrangement , and it-is
understood will protest against the ' 'action
of Mr. Caldwt-11 in ducluing upon matters
whlolftidUborn the locaTagi-ccmeiit entirely.
Air. Charles Kennedy , general northwcsi-
crn passenger aecnt of the Hock Island , pro
tested vigorously against the injustice , stat-
iiiK iiiui , uniicr mo nrraiiKoment Ins road
could bo mulcted in itamages for circum
stantial Irregularities by the combina
tion of the Klkhorn aim Turlington ,
competitors of the Hock \ Island , for
Lincoln business. Ho regarded the
local agreement of little value , its the West
ern PassoiiRer association was fully capable
of righting any wrongs that might bo done
in the payment , of commissions or cuttmir
rates. Ho sahl "no didn't propose to submit
to such an Infamous injustice and would
bringthomattcr oefoic bis general passciiL'pr
ngent for correction.
"Mr. Caldwell has looked at this matlci
through tlio rose-colored spectacles of the
\ycstcrn Passniigor association , " ho con-
tinned , "and has. therefore , not grasped the
situation as presented from ii local stand
point. Ho has placed a club in the hands of
tnesp roads that misht. bo USLH ! with fatal
results wcro the systems so inclined. Uiwn
ts face there has neon the grossest favonto
Ism shown in the settlement of this ques
tion and 1 don't propose to stand it. "
Mr. l'A. . Nash , general agent of the Mil
waukee , was Just as outspoken as Mr. Ken
ncdy , but thought it would no foolish to
kick aguinst ttio decision , ns Mr. Caldwcl
would prohaDly bo sustained oy the Westen
Passenger nssooiation in his ruling.
"Just remember. " said he , "that the
bnlpn Pacilli- . the Klkhorn and the Omaha
roads , which havu nqV n imrticlo of interest
cast of the rlvor. might inuvo to cinch the
Milwaukee for some alleged Irregularity and
Imiwso the line. Now. that is where the
injustice of this new arr\ngemcnt lays. The

Iist year on Thanksgiving day there wns
a great battle fought and when darkness
closed in upon the field neither sldo wns
victorious. The foot ball teams of Mobraska
and Iowa.struggled dcsnoratcly In the cold
nnd sleet , hut neither could win. Tlio score
was 10 to 10.
Tomorrow afternoon that battle will bo
continued and victory will rest with ono
aldo or the other.
Nebraska has chartered a special train and
her partisans , with colors Hying and In full
panoply of arms , will make n descent upon
us on the morrow. The boys nro saving up
their rolccs and-thoro will bo yelling galore.
'Milton , the flaming rod r.nd whlto bull
terrier mascot , will bo there In nil his glory
nnd make his presence and powers foil.
Nebraska is said to bo In fair condition for
a hard light. The personnel of her team is
ns follows :
IIopowcll , Iho fearless and experienced
center rush , will line up against the giant
Kopers , and although ho Is much inferior in
weight , ho will perform his duties In his
own peculiar ami masterly wny.
Dorn will play right guard. Ho is a very
light man for that position , but ho has mot
nobody yet who has overmatched him. Dorn
is a now man. but ho plays like a veteran ,
nnd by many ho is called the best uiati in the
eleven.
Whipplo , the Omaha boy , will play right
tackle. Last year he played on the Omaha
High school olovou. Ho has played n re
markable game this season , and when ho
lakes the ball it is a auro gain.
"Wiggin will play right end. This Is his
first gauio , but ho has had lots of practice
on the second cloven , and ho is & hard and
sure tackle.
Wilson will play loft guard. Ho also is a
light man , but ho plays low and Is a hard
man to move from his tracks.
Oury , of last year's Omaha High school
team , will play left tackle. Ho is n strong
man and makes steady gains around the
end and through the line. Ho will play a
hard game in the presenceof his Omaha
friends.
Johnston , last year's captain , will hold
down loft end. This wiry little man is a
great taeklorund a good blocker. Because
of Captain Pace's resignation Johnston will
act as Held captain.
Harry Frank Is another Omaha boy who
is on the team. Ho will piny quarter back.
This Is his llrst game , but ho will astonish
his Omaha friends by his tackling and
blocking.
Flipp.in , the good-natured , famous colored
half back , will play with his old tlmo force
add Imoetuoslty. Ho has had hard luck
this scasou. Ho has been in bad shape
every game , but plucky man that ho is , ho
would let no injury , however serious " , keep
him out of a gamo. Today ho is" in his best
shape and ho xvill surely puncture holes in
Iowa's stone wall lino.
A. li Yont , called little Yont , is right half
back. Ho bus done most of Nebraska's
ground gaining this year , and ho is a dandy.
He can buck the line or circle the ends with
equal facility.
J. G. Yout , yclept Big Yont , is Hko a bull
behind the line , llo is u remarkably fust
runner , skillful blocker and good punter.

of the team. Ho played sub full back last

Born of the tribulations of the Puritan
nnccstors , Thanksgiving day has como down
to the modern civilization Invested with a
wealth of associations which have been
largely lost sight of In the lapse ot centuries.
The original Thanksgiving proclamation
promulgated by Governor Witillirop amid
the perils of n now world meant lar more to
Iho scanty dwellers on that rugged , coast
than President Cleveland's manifesto docs
to the millions of American people today.
With the Puritan * it carried with it
nb joyful anticipations of feasting and
reunion. U was but the recollection
of continued hardships nnd disaster
over which but n feeble ray of light beamed
from the tlTt iu the still gathering clouds.
Just emerging from n night of nflllctlon , Iho
Puritans hailed Iho llrst gleams of sunshine
with grateful hearts nnd on bended knees
returned thanks to the God who had led
them safely through the darkness. Perils
of war and famine and dlspaso had all but
compassed tholr destruction , but pluck and
enterprise had won the day nnd with the
tlrst Thanksgiving dawned the future of the
American republic.
Observance In Omniin.
Tlio pratso that will ascend from human
hearts tomorrow In Omaha will not cele
brate dcllvurauce from such perils as encom
passed our forefathers , but may bo none
the less sincere. U will be thanks for con
tinued national prosperity , for life nnd
health , for family circles left unbroken in
the passage of the year. It is but natural
that with the changes wrought by time , Iho
usages ot Iho day should nlso receive the
Impress of moro modern times. The undent
Thanksgiving of fastlne and prayer would
not bo u popular holiday in these later timos.
It is still a day of worship , but also nn occa
sion -when old associations nro renewed
nround the festal boara when the scattered
links of the family chain nro welded once
moro together , nnd happy faces and buoyant
hearts reflect moro' Htly the spirit of the
day.
Thankful Hearts nnd Full Htomnchi.
The Thanksgiving dinner is essentially the
fcaturqpf thu day. Around it cling the ten-
dorcst associations and most joyous mem
ories. Kvcry dish with its grateful fra
grance represents the care and forethought
ofxsoino member of the household. Every
glass ana plate upon the table is arranged
with a tender thought for the convenience
6f the guest. The preparation ot this dinner
is iho center around which the domestic life
revolves for days before. The fattest
turkey must be carefully selected and fat
tened to just the right degree of succulent
sweetness. The mince.pies must be flavored
just as the absent members of the house
hold will like to have thorn , and every detail
of the repast must be perfection.
Turkey * liy the Ton.
Of course the turkey is the central figure
of the repast. It Is 'difllcult to estimate the
number of turkeys that will bo offered up on
the altar of Thanksgiving in Omaha this
year , but a conservative gucsa would put tlio
number at not less than 10,000. The average
weight is about ten pounds , so llfty tons of
turiioys will congest the digcstivo organs of
Omahn epicures tomorrow. Tons of these
birds arrived in the various commission
houses.ycsterday and many more will come
-today. Mostof , , them are shipped in from
central and eastern Nebraska , where they
are fattened especially for the Thanksgiving
niirknt. Prints nrn liixf tn II , font. * fiir tlin
ohoico turkeys , but U is safe to say that by
tonight a good turkey can bo purchased fo *
10 cents. Cranberries of the best variety
may be had at 10 ecuts per quart , while the
other accessories of the dinner will vary
with the means of thu purchaser. Chickens
arc 8 to 10 cents , ducks \y/t cents and goose
10 cents. Venison steak is 25 cents per
pound and 'possoms are iu the market at an
even dollar each ,
Fowl 1'luy JCvoiy Year ,
Probably not ono in twenty of those who
will assist ) n demolishing these turkeys
tomorrow have anv idea how they uro pre
pared for the market. This has become n
Jlno art , and the process of plucking must
be performed just so or much of the attrac
tion of the naked bird is lost. First thu
turkey Is hung up by the fcot. An incision
Is made in the roof of the mouth , and the
feathers are plucked whllo ho bleeds. Care
must bo taken not lo tear the skin , and the
plucking process is supposed to bo com
pleted before the bird is dead. Then the
throat is cut to hasten death , after which
the fowl is plunged Into water which is
hcatod to nearly the boiling point. Before
the lle.sh has had tirno to cool it is dnsbod
into cold water , and then the fowl presents
the fat Juicy appearance that makes it at
tractive on the market.
Kond for ICfilloctlon.
After the repast of the day has been dis
posed ol the religiously inclined will have
abundant opportunity to attend to the more
serious functions of the day. Most of the
local churches have arranged services for
either thu nf ternoon or evening , at which
the program will bo especially adapted for
Iho occasion. The Unitarian. Univorsallst
nnd Jewish churches of the city will unite in
a Thanksgiving service , which will bo held
at Temple Israel on Harnoy street nt 10 : 0
o'clock Thursday morning. The sermon will
he delivered by Rev. P. lx Ilosmer , an emi
nent dlvlno of Chicago , who has chosen for
his theme , "Tho Compensations of LIfo. "

Nnw YOIIK , Nov. 38. A report reached
this city this morning from Fire Island that
a ship went ashore last night off Smith's
| Xlnt ) , opjioslto Uello point. It Itirns oul
Iho vessel was n fourmastcd topsail
schooner. She has n crew of nine mon
nnd women who are clinging to thu rlgglnir.
The life saving people hnvo tried to teach
her , but failed , owing to life Hues not reachIng -
Ing the vessel nnd the .surf is now so heavy
that they are unable to go off in their
boats. The vessel Is four foot under water.
Loan Hill station says that if the wreck
age boat Mcrrltt , absent down the coas.1 ,
was there , they could got them off. As it Is
It Is doubtful If they will bo able to get off
before night on account of the heavy surf
running.
The name of the ship nshoro nt Smith's
point Is the Jxmls H. Knndall , Captain Haw
thorne , from Iloston , November 15 , and
Hynnnis , November 20 , for Coldport.
The wrecking steamer I. J. Morritt has

SWAMP SCOTT , Muss. , Nov. 2-.1. An un
known twomastod schooner foundered In
deep water two and a half miles off hero this
afternoon. The wind was blowing n
gale in shore nt the tlmo and the
vessel completely disnppoarcd from
sight. Np trace of the vessel
could be discovered. She was llrst sighted
off ICehoo's fish market through n glass nnd
a largo number of liorror-stviokon spectators
saw the llual not in the tragedy. A lifeboat
from the Humane society's station has nut
oft to the scene in the hope of rescuing some
of the vessel's crow if any remain above
water.
The lifeboat which put out to the scene
has returned und reported having found a
small boat bottom sldo up containing a coat
ana hat. In the pocket of the coat was a
cai-d upon which wns printed the name of
' C. Hints , Banger. Me. " This was the only
traca of the ill'fatcdischooner that could be
found. The man who watched her as she
went down reports having soon some four or
ilvo people on board n moment before she
was ougulfcd. and among thorn there ap
peared to bo fluttering of the skirts of n
woman. The unknown vessel Is supposed to
bo a coaster. The cause of the disaster is
attributed to a squall which struck her , n a
few moments before she scorned to suddenly
careen to port and went down with a mighty
swirl.

judge has no control over Indictments and It
Is manifestly Impi-oper for him to seek to In-
lluenco the grand Jury for or against nny
person nccuscd of crime. The district n -
toriioy slates the law to the Jurv ,
which decides for Itself , lifter an ox-
parto hearing , vrhollior to indict. It 11
only when tlio facts have been developed
upon trial that Judgment may fairly bo pro-
nouneed upon tlio merits of the case.
"The trial of President Graves developed
the facts hi tlio case of Cnshlor Harris. It
showed that ho wns not without fault nnd
for this ho entered a plea of guilty , wliloii
to any gcnsitivn man Is a severe penalty. H
was not a fault which should condemn htm
to five years Imprisonment In the pcnttnn-
tlnry. tlio minimum nounltv provided bv
statute. This was the Judgment of the
ofllccrs 01 the court , and of the community
gcner.illy , as was attested ny the signature's
to the poiltloii for pardon , and later events
Indicate it was nlso the Judgment of the
president. "
