There IP a possibility of further delay In the forcclostiio proceedings against the Union Pacific railway. As announced In the tele graphic dispatches of The Hee , the govern ment Is considering the advisability of ap pealing from the several decrees entered In the federal court here. There Is , however , no tellable Indication that the government 'will ' make the appeal now under consideration. i In fact , there Is meal excellent reason to ' bcllexo that the appeals from the decieo of j I foreclosure now contemplated by the atloincy I general of the United States will not be taken. When asked concerning the report that the government might appeal from Iho de crees of foreclosure. General John 0. Cow In , special counsel for the government In the Union Pacific foreclosure eases , who returned from the east Wednesday , said' "It Is true that the attorney general Is considering the advisability of appealing to the circuit court ot appeals from the several decrees entered In tbc Union Pacific foreclosure cases , but the matter Is not yet finally determined , it appeals are taken , It will be from all the decrees entered , not only with respect to the decree foreclosing the subsidy Hen of the United StatCQ , but also the decrees In favor of the prior lien holdois. However , all pieparatlons are madn to appeal , and while In New York recently , Governor Hoadly and myeelf prepared petitions for appeals and assignment of errors. HAVE A RIGHT TO APPEAL. "If appeals are taken the execution of the decicro with respect to sales will be stayed ; this will be effected at the request of the United States and without bonds. "Of course the time of sale Is a matter of great uncertainty , because , while vvc will have the right to advance the cases , It will bo home time before a hearing can bo had In the court of appeals , but If the Judgment ot the court of appeals be ursatlsfactory wo will have the right to appeal from that coun to the supreme court cf the United States' No Information concerning the govern ments appeal from the dcciecs of fore closure bos been received at Union Paclilc headquarter. . ?

A icpresentatlve ot the Union Pacific salil yestciday. "It would occasion no sur prise at all If the bale of the road should not take place this year. It the govern ment should appeal from the decrees al ready entered , as the press dispatches say the attorney general Is thinking of doing , the sale may be indefinitely postponed. At any rate , there must flist be live weeks of ad vertislng , then there will bo forty days tor conllimatlon and several weeks more for the adjustment of other matters Incidental to the sale of such a big property. That It will bring matters pretty late In the year , and It Is not at all Improbable that the sale may bo held In ISO' instead of 1897. " That there Is something In the report that the government Is thinking ot appealing from the deciees entered Is again evidenced by the fact that all arrangements had been completed for proceeding to advertise Iho tale of the load , when suddenly word was received 1-oin the rcorganlratlon committee to hold the plates picparcd and to do no ad \eitising until further orders had been re- cclv cd.

A special train consisting of the hand somely fiirnVhed Wagner cars Viceroy and Marlpcsa left the union depot yesterday morning for New York city. The special contained the party of H.

During their t > tay on the coast they v tailed Alaska end took In the Aleutian Islands and other points of Intctcst After doing the const they visited Yellowstone park and en- joved the beauties of that natural piece of scenery for some two weeks. Mr Twombley Is very much delighted with the Bcenery which ho has noted all along the line of travel of the party , and declares when he gets home he will never worry In telling his friends of It. Inasmuch as he Is a man who stands high In society , . being one of the leaders of the " 400 , " there Is no reason for doubting that after this the west may expect a great deal of the travel which has hitherto gone to Prance and other European points. Mlsb Sloan Is enthusiastic over the many wonderb she has hee n and may write a book on the travels of the party upon her return. She declared that the Yellowstone park was the most magnificent creation her eyes had evtr rested upon and was worth a volume of description. Mr. Twombley owns a magnificent camp In the Kt Hegld region of the Adlrondacks , which ecu $00,000 , where ho is In the habit of spending the siimmei season , but this year he determined to see some of the country west of the Missouri Ho Bald1 "We- hid heard EO much of the beauties of a coast trip from Portland north to Alaska that we deter mined to take It. and have been amply ie - pald for our trouble The sccnciy In the west la so much more In'plrlng , you know , than In the etist There It was created , ono might i-ay , by the band of a landscape palntor , who nuts soft lines In It and subdued color , while in tliH west giants did tbo work and exag gerated oveiythlng.

OMAHA , Sept. 2 To the Udltor ot The Dec : A recent IE&UO ot the Philadelphia Hccord contained a very flattering notice ot the Transmlsslsslppl Exposition. It pre dicted a successful show and gave reasons , why. One of them was that within a radius ! | i of 500 miles ot Omaha 5,000,000 people ro- i sided. This Is so glaring an error that I take the liberty of correcting It through The nee. I assert that within a radius ot 500 miles of Omaha there are moie people than ( hero are within 500 miles of Uoston. The ntwton circle would Include Maine , Now Hampshire , Vermont. Massachusetts , , Hhode Island Connecticut New York , New Jersey , Delaware , Maryland , UlstHct of Columbia and most of Pennsylvania and Virginia , which states in lliOO had a total population of 20,508,800. The 500-mllo circle around Omaha would Include all of Minnesota , Wis consin , Illinois , Iowa , Missouri , Kansas , Ne braska , North and South Dakota and most ot Arkansas , Colorado and the Indian Terri tory , which had a total population In 1SOO ot 1 ,037,047 , besides a largo part of Michi gan Indiana Kentucky , Tenncbsee , Te\as , Wyoming and Montana , the parts of which lying within the clrclo contained in 1800 more than 2,000,000 people , this gave the Boston district 2,151,703 more people In 1S90 than the Omaha district , but if we calculate the Increase ot population at the same i.itio from 1SOO until the picsent time , as was shown between 1BSO and 1800 , we should have nearly 1,000,000 moie people within the 500 miles of Omaha than within the same distance of Hoslou. No city In the county Is more accrs lhlo than Omaha. Twelve gieat trunk UncB of railroads center here , running upwards of 100 passenger trains In and out tot the city dally. When the liber ality of the western people- considered In comparison with the eastern and southern , there Is no doubt that the attendance at the exposition will tar exceed the expectations ot all but the most enthushstlc.

Leon kins G. Skllras and Constantine DC nmkoR , the two patriotic young Greeks o this city who left on April 24 , last , to ftgh for ' their fatherland In the late war betvveti Greece ( and Turkey , returned to Oman Wednesday i afternoon. They did not have t chance to fight , but they brought back vvltl them n countryman , George Demctros , wh took part In seven battles In the war. The- young fellows arrived In Athens vvltl a big contingent of volunteers from thl country. They at once offered their services but the negotiations which put an end to th war were alieady pending and the conftlc was practically ended. Even If their ecrv Ices bad been needed , It seemed as If they stood a small show of going to the front as the government was without arms o ammunition. Under the circumstances the waited , around awhile to sec what woill . turn up and when at last It became very ap parent that they would be given no oppor ( unity of shedding their blood for tbcl country , they packed up and came back t this country ngiin. "It Is not over yet , " they say , "If Greec docs not como out ahead In tbo negotiations there will be another war. Tint In wlm Prlmo Minister Halll believes. If the wa had been inn on tlui square we would hav whippet ! the Turks , anyway. There wer too many Greek leaders In the fight. " IT WAS A POLITICAL MOVE. The two Omaha Greeks think that the war was nothing more thin a political deal They hay they voice the opinion ot the blghc clrcle of Greece , too. Young Skllrus' fathe Is ono of the head men In Greek politics ami through him the Omaha contingent go In touch with what was going on. An It Is because of the opportunity thus affordei them of getting eloso to court secrets tha they know what they are talking abou when they say that the war and the in mine lit which It was concluded , was all a put u | Job between King George and the C/ar o Russia. "Tho klnn of Greece Is telling Ms peopli that he will gct back both Ihcssalv am Crete. " .said Skllras. "and this Is bwallovvet by the common people , but the more Intel llgcnt class think George Is talking througl his hat. As George , however. Is In a pc/il tlon where he can stand pat , be Is allowci to IIPVO his Inning , but It Greece don't ge Thosnaly and Crete , there Is bound to be another war If this bhould coino about George Is likely to be shl d out of his 111011 archlcal ehalr For members of the blghe classes aie dimly convinced that If Gcoigi and the other powers had not each hai ! some wires to pull , Gr ece would have won Their schemes , however , conflicted In Miel a way that different orders eminaU'd fron : the various departments ot government The r wilt was that there was no conceitei action on the part of the aimy and It was whipped. "Hundreds ot volunteers left this country for Greece. Some of the-se who got there early succeeded In enlisting In the army Some of them are still on duty on the frontier. The majority of them , howevci oamo back to Athens They nro dlssatlsfiet with the confused condition of aftalis there and are gradually coming back to America Some of them are bringing countrymen back with them. "There will be another war , you may be sure of that , and then the Greeks In this country will go to th3 atslftance ot Greece as quickly as they did bcfoic , and wo will w in.
