SUIUICT : TO A PHOTHST.
After Mailer In Clanccry Cornish had read
the motlco ot the Rile , ho read an official
protest against the writing of a strip ot two
mll6 of railway Included \ \ what Is known
us the Cheyenne & Northern railway. This
Btrlp Is claimed by the receivers of the
Union Pacific railway nnd by the receivers
of the Union IMclfic , Denver & Gulf rail
road. The protest was from Denver and vvaa
forwarded by Prank Trumlmll , managing re
ceiver ot the Union Pacific , Denver & Gulf
railroad. The master cinnounced that the
purchasers would take the property ofTcicd
for sale subject to the protest , This condi
tion waa accepted by the representatives of
the reorganisation committee , and that com
mittee having purchased thegovernment's
Interest In , the Union Pacific will settle the
protest over the two mile strip claimed by
( both roads as best It can
The nnater made no reference to the pro
test , further thnn the reading thereof. He
said the notice of the sale that ho had mid
. ihad been published In The Omaha Ueo and
other papers throughout the country for the
rcqulsilo period of time four weeks and
that ho would listen to bids first for the rail
way propo-ty of the Union Pacific , the de
scription of which had been read , amf ex
clusive of the bonls and the sinking fund
General Louis Fitzgerald , chnlrrran of the
rcorgiinlratlon committee , said that ho would
bid for himself and AlvlnV Krech , as pur
chasing trustees , the sum ot $31,851.281 87
To nnko sure that ho had the correct fig
ures the master took the slip of paper on
which the figures wcro written from General
Fitzgerald.
Ho repeated the offer , and asked If there
were any others No one appeared anxious
to separate himself from that amount of
money , and the master was about to an
nounce the railway property fold when General -
oral Cow In , on behalf of the government ,
asked the court to repeat the amount of the
offer fco that ho could hear It Up to this
time tlio proceedings had been sort of a two-
lianded game between the couit and the re
organization committee "but now appeared
the government to ask It it could learn
something about the transaction The court
compiled with the request of Uncle Sim's
representative , and the sale of the railway
property was complete
Thou came the sale ot the bonds , and for
these General Fitzgerald , acting for himself
nnd AJvIn W Krech , as purchasing trustees ,
made the bid of $13,615,2riO SD , and na this
waa the only one forthcoming. It wan
promptly accepted. With the understanding
thai thu same bidders also bid the amount ,
the principal and Interest of the sinking
fund bonds , the sale was complete , nnd the
United States government was completely
< llvorcod from an alliance that had never
proved profitable to It.

Mocked with carriages ot the ofilclals , and
there appeared from various points a do/cn
cameras to carry away the pictures ot the

VANDEIUULT IN'TEIIKSTS.
The presence at the sale ot Marvin Hughltt
and a number of other representatives of the
Vfnderbllt railway Interests Is olid to con
firm the opinion of msny that the reorgani
sation committee IB largely controlled by J
Plerpont Morgan and the Vanderbllla It Is
paid to bo a fact that the addition of the
Union Pacific to this strong syndicate of
American railroads puts J. Plerpont Morgan
In the premier pMltlro of railroaders Since
the death ot WlllUm II Vandcrbllt , the
Vnc-derbllt lines have been nearly completely
controlled by Morgan The lllncuj of Cor
nelius Vandcrhllt , the disinclination tor busi
ness of W. 1C , and the withdrawal from
actlvo business ot George has almost elimi
nated the Vandcrbllt family from active par
ticipation In the railway llno-j supposed to
bo In the confines of that Illustrious family.
J Plerpont Morgan Is now bucking the
Interests of the Garretts and ot Johns Hop-
klna university for the control of the Haiti-
more & Ohio rnlltoad Should ho secure
possession ot that , his sway of both eastern
and wester i railroads will toe undisputed
Thcro are those who firmly balleve that
within the rext five years there will bo a
foreclosure of the government's Hen on the
Central Pacific , and that , too , will fall Into
the hards of the man who Is fast coming
to be recognized as King of the American
railroads
J Plerpont Morgan , representing his own
Interests and the Interests of English bond
holders and such allied Interests In this coun
try an the Vanderbllts , dictates the policy of
the following railroads'

OTHER LINHS IN THE DEAL.
To these roac's may now bo added the

NHW YORK. Nov , 2 The Herald this
morning says : Opposition to Union Pacific
plans developed yesterday from anew source
T.io Kansas Pacific bondholders object to the
treatment of their securities under thu modi
fied arrangement and they propose to block
thu reorganization If possible. Those
bonds received under the original plan
50 per cent of 1 per cent bonds
and CO ner cent in preferred
stock , but tlirsD terms v/ero modified so as tn
issue $75.000 000 bonds in 1 ac < ording to the
amendment Kansas Pac.'Ij consols received
30 per cent 4 per cen' bonOa , 110 per rent
preferred stock The opiwuloi. to the plan
which Is largely Intcrjitaa In Kai sa Pa
cific consols claims that tlie agreement on
which deposits of tlio'r ' consols under the
plan wts obtained hca bi > en broken. It Is
said that store wl'l ' be InkJii In the federal
courts to test the mattet If the plan pro
ceeds 01 Its present lines
The plan for dealing with the payments
to the government by the Union Pacific culls
for the appointment ot several national banks
as depositories. It is alleged that the
Natlctnl City and Chase banks will bo two
of the tanks selected because they have large
holdings of government bonds which have to
bo deposited In Washington Such deposits
of bonds have to bo made amounting to the
government funds held by the tanks.
It is stated that the majority of the Now
York banks have disposed ot the b-ilk of the
government bonds by reason of the high
premium they command and hcnco If they
take any considerable amount of govern
ment bonda ihey will have to take govein-
mcnt bonds to cover the amount of the funds
and few of them rare to do this.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 1. ( Special Tele
gram ) The contract for the Govcrnmeat
building at Omaha line been awarded to
Gcorgo Moore & Sons of Nashville , Tenn. ,
for $ J3,937. The awarding of the contract
vvas only accomplished Try soiling down the
sbo of the building , three bays on cither
side telng taken off to br'ng the contrsct
price within thj government's appropriation ,
At the supervising architect's olllce It was
asserted -that the reduction would In no
wise Injure the symmetry of thcf building ,
which vvculd In all particulars be constructed
ns planned , with the exception of reducing
the length of tht , wings , thereby reducing
the floor space. The reduction of these bays
vvas iln alternative proposition In the npccl-
flcatlons , and vvas considered by each In
tending builder. When supervising Archi
tect Taylor came to this feature , hocry
readily saw that none of the Omaha con
tractors were to be considered , their b'dd
being very much higher thrn the eastein
bidders , consequently the award wcat to
Moore & Sons. iven as It Is , the bid will
knock out the life diving station , unlejs
congress comes to the. relief next winter by
passing a Joint resolution appropriating at
Icaet $5,000 for the erection of such n station
en thb lagoon. While the bid Is lower by
$ C,000 than , the sum appropriated by con
gress , the plaster casts must come out of
this balance , alee the expenses of Designer
Crane , who made a special trip to Omaha
to get the lay of the land , and the salary ot
the Inspector. This will leave about $1,500
for all incidental expenses , a very Insignifi
cant sum as viewed by treasury officers.
Bids for the plaster casts were rejected to
day , it being asceit'ilncd thnt the lowest bid
was Informal Bids will therefore be re-
advcrtlsed at once. The award for the con
struction ot the Government building went
to Assistant Seeretnry Spauldlng of the
Treauury department late this afternoon for
his approval , and It is expected it will bo
bulletined tomoriow.

No 1 today fined Geoigo Buckley of the
Anacostla Drug company $50 for violating an
Injunction granted several weeks ago by the
court In which the Anacostla Drug company
was restrained from preparing and using a
certain label In Imitation of ono need by
the Centaur company of Now York. Conrad
Wcls , the other member of the Anacostla
Drug company , wns relieved of any respon
sibility for the Infringement the court hold
ing that ho had purged himself of contempt
by showing that ho withdrew from backing
Buckley in the matter In disposing of the
matter today Judge Cox remarked thnt
Buckley after discontinuing the ueo of the
label first complained of by the Centaur
company prepared and used another which
later on made It Impossible for the general
public to distinguish between It and that
wed by the Now York company , H ap
peared to the court that out of twelve
features of the label used by the latter com
pany the ono last complained of contained
all but two Its uce was , therefore , said
Judge Cox , a clear violation of tbo Injunc
tion granted by him and also of the rights
of the Centaur company and one which de
ceived thn general purchasing public.

fined to a few parties.
The United States district attorney has

WASHINGTON. Nov. 1. It Is expected
that n treaty or convention between Kutuh ,
thp United States nnd Jnpin will be form
ally signed ami executed at the State do-
partmonl during the week , carrying the
proposition before the llorlng SM conference
for a suspension of pelagic sealing. The
present understanding Is that the slgn'ng ' of
this document will occur within the next
few days. H will represent the completed
efforts ot the conference nnd with the signIng -
Ing conclude-j the conference will adjourn.
The terms of the treaty or convention will
follow the lines proposed by the conference
and referred with favorable recommendation
to thp authorities at St. Petersburg and To-
klo. The essential feature of the treaty or
convention is for the suspension ot rclaglc
sealing tor such a pcrlol an will permit the
seal herds to revive. Tim period of this sus
pension Is not dlsclcoed One report Is that
It will bo for cue year , subject to oxtonslon ,
another Is that It will cover a term of years ,
but the exact duration of the suspension
cannot be verified.
The ccnfcrcnco resumed Its sessions at the
State department , but no official statement
was made mi to what had been done or the
plans In view.
GREAT BRITAIN'S ATTITUDE.
The attitude which Great Ilrltnln will as
sume toward the proposition and the treaty
which Is to take ltd place Is awal'ed with
much Interest. Thus far the British a tthorl-
tles hnvu not been Informed as to what the
conference propcses doing , At the same
tlmo thu Uiltlsh export , Prof. Darey
Thompson , has had seveial long talks with
Mr Tcatcr and Mr Manilla and these have
beei1 of such a satisfactory nature t'i ' it It
was believed an amlcablo understanding
would bo reached by all parties concerned It
Canada showed a disposition to assent to the
agreement Uut Canadi still stands In Iho
way and the continued absence of the Cana
dian expert Mi Maroun , Is regarded In the
light of a diplomatic discourtesy not only
to the United ISites but also to the Urltiuh
government Tlio foieign office named him
with PreT Thompson as an expert to tome
to Wcolilngton Prof Thompson came at
once but Mr Maconn has remained away
The Ottawa government hns sent no ex
planation of ill's aetlon nnd apparently Is
oblivious to all Inquiries It Is thought the
prcaenco of Mr Ilam'ln ' as the American ex
pert in the British \mcrican meeting liny
bo the cause of Canada's Imctlon Lord
Salisbury ppecillcilly stated In accepting the
proposition foi a mooting that It was to be
ono "bctv\ren experts" To this end the
British expert Thompson and the Canidhn
expert Macotin wcro named. It being ex
pected that tha United States would name
Its o\prt , Piof Jordoi. Mr Hamlin waa
nnmed , however , and it Is understood that
this is viewed inther In the light of naming
r cou-aellor or a dlplomit as the United
States representative rather than an expert
While no official objection Ima been made
to the appointment It Is believed to account
In part for Canada's do ay In Bending its
expert to Washington.
No mention Is made In the convention of
the killing of the neals In caio Great Brltiin
and Canada do not co-opcratu It Is pointed
out that RuEs'a ' and Japan could not adopt
ic'allatory steps against Canada , np they
have no border Interests with that country.
Any actlo i against Canada , therefore , muit
bo taken by the United States alone The
plan of Killing the seals has been embodied
In bills , now buforo congress but It hna not
come bcforo the conference as a step now
to bo taken by the a'llcd powers
Mr Tester gave a reception tonight to the
Russian Jipancso and British delegates and
experts Prof. Thompson was present but
the Brlt'jh embassy officiiH were not vop-
rtbentod , owing to the month of mourning
Imposed by the death ot the duchess of Teck
