General passenger ngcnts for the roads
with headquarters at Omaha nro In Chicago
attending a meeting of similar officials from
ether western roads. This meeting may bo
the romaklng of the Western Passenger ns-
Boclatlon , as It Is understood several mat
ters which n few weeks ago seemed Insur
mountable hnvo 'been ' amicably adjusted , and
whllo It appeared then that the association
was on the verge of collapse the change
which has been affected during the lost few
day has put a now phase upon the situation.
As wns announced Saturday , there Is
every likelihood that the Union Pacific will
withdraw from the position It has held dur
ing the last two years nnd become a mem
ber of the association. If this Is done It Is
nlso posslbln that the Great Northern and
the Northern Pacific may also come In. How
ever , Uio membership of these latter roads
Is not considered necessary to the success
ful operation of the association , although
with tholr help the field could bo widened.
Whllo It Is not certain that the chairman
ship o' the association will be brought up
at this meeting , it is possible , nnd that
brings forward a local Interest , for one of
the leading candidates for successor to Mr.
Caldwell will bo J. II. Buchanan of this city.
Ho will be backed by some of the strongest
roads In the association. A few weeks ago
It was thought that his friendship for the
Union Pacific might Interfere with his elec
tion to the position , but as that road has
had Us difficulties adjusted without the aid
of a chairman this handicap for Mr. Bu
chanan Is believed to be largely removed.
Seven years ago Mr. Buchanan was ten
dered the place. At that time ho oould not
sco his way clear to leave Omaha nnd ho
had to decline. Mr. Caldwcll was then
chosen. The action of the association at
that tlmo Is apt to have considerable In
fluence Just now , and may aid Mr. Bu
chanan's candidacy. But It will take a
unanimous vote to elect.

On account of the fourteenth annual con-
vcntlou of the National Editorial associ
ation , to bo hold nt Portland , Oro. , July 5 , G
and 7 , a special train carrying tno delegates
will pass through this city en route to the

Delegates from the eastern states will ren
dezvous at Chicago on Friday , Juno 30 ,
leaving there that evening. The newspaper
men will bo the gucsto of the railroads over
which they ride. They will travel In a
special train of ten Pullman sleepers. From

Pacific. Delegates from the western states
who nro unable to Join the special train will
bo provided transportation by the western
roads from their homes to Portland. The
eastern men will return by way of the Ca
nadian Pacific as far na St. Paul.
Abandon Double Trulii Service * .
ST. PAUL , Minn. , Juno 19. The Northern
Pacific and Great Northern have changed
their train service so that hereafter the
Great Northern will have a morning train
out for Seattle and Washington points and
the Northern Pacific an evening train to the
( Coast. The double dally service to the coast
on the Northern Pacific and Great Northern
Is thus abandoned and the roads , by agree
ment , have decided to try Uio plan of send
ing out tholr overland trains from St. Paul
twelve hours apart. JIow long > this arrange
ment will continue Is a matter of conjecture ,
for If either line becomes convinced It Is not
getting Its share of the business It win re
peat Its through train schedule.

Recently the Baltimore & Ohio road has
TIKI do another change In Its opnrating rules ,
whereby It has materially extended the runs
of the passenger locomotives on through
trains. Formerly engines wcro changed on
an average of every 100 or 150 miles. It was
thought th.it the mountain grades on the
road would prevent an extension of the
runs , but nn experiment has proven success
ful. The now rule has reduced the number
of locomotives required by twenty-four ,
which nro to bo used In other branches of
the service. Under this plan the engines
have double crows , and make from 7,000 to
8,000 miles a month as against 3,500 to 4,000
under the old method. "

HIP Terrible Ao Stiliae-
v Die.
CIIICLR CITY , Alaska , May 29. ( Via
San Francisco , Juno 10. ) A Btory of pos
sible cannibalism and death on the Yukon
trail has Just reached here. Three men
who left Dahl river on December B for
Jlmtown were not heard of again nnd they
wcro supposed to have been lost. Nothing
was heard of thorn here till the steamer
Hideout , which arrived today , brought n
terrible tnlo of suffering nnd horror.
The men wcro Michael Daly , Victor
Kdlar nnd M. I'rovost. They wcro from
Providence. H. I. , Woonsocket , 11. I. , nnd
Brockton , Mass. , respectively. Their bodlca
were discovered seventeen miles from the
mouth of Old Man's crock , they having lost
the trail and bpcomo bewildered. Having
left Dahl river with only thrco weeks' food ,
but which was amply sufficient for the 150
miles to Jlmtown , the poor fellows wcro
soon reduced to starvation.
Daly's body was found , partly eaten , In a
tent , Just as It WAS left when death over
took the others. Some ncraps of moose
hide nnd moccasin were found , of which
they were cndcavorlnR to make n stow ,
Daly's bbdy was Identified by the clothes.
The ether two men were found Icad flvu
miles away from the tent. The fact of the
tent flaps being shut down when found
would seem to preclude the possibility of
Daly's body having boon eaten by animals.
The other men doubtless were driven by
hunger to the awful extremity of cannibal-
Ism. Four hundred dollars were found on
the bodies.
The seven boats which wintered at Dahl
river are nil safe. They are the St. Michael ,
Reindeer , ( Monarch , Evans , Mary Graff ,
L-ucm and Uldcout.
