Union Pacific Enjoys a Boom on Bier
Dividend Prospects.
NEW yORK, July 10-The depression caused
on foreign exchange by the rlnlster reports
from China bad no effect In the local market,
and Indeed -did not hurt the American securi
ties in the foreign markets, Good advances
were established in London for Union Pacific
tand for Baltimore & Ohio before the opening
here, and international houses bought freely
on this market of those and other stocks. The
total purchases for London account in this
market wero estimated at 40,000 shares. The
movement in Union Pacific was the main
spring of this market all day, and Baltimore
& Ohio was also an active feature. The
movement in these stocks was primarily based
on the estimates for tho year's earnings now
made up. t ,
A statement of Union Pacific earnings having
tho appearance of authority, states that ne.i.
Teeufts for the year, exclusive -of land sales,
amount to over $20,000,000, which would indi
cate a balance of something like 0 per cent for
the common stock. This statement and tho.
fact that Inside Interests were avowed buyers
of the stock, gave color to the reports that it
is toxbo placed on a 4 per cent basis,
The,Amount-of speculation which has been
based on supposed damage to the corn crop
was made obvious by the violent break In the
prico of that certaL and tho rapid advance
in th6 stocks of corn-carrying railroads. This
helped, the Union Pacific movement, and that
stock rose aa extreme 2ft. Other gains ran
from 1 to 191 for the corn grangers, Burling
ton being conspicuous. Rock Island was

disappointment 'that no ..action on the divi

held today The extreme decline of 1.
coupled with the weakness in Brooklyn Tran
sit and the disposition to take profits, caused
reactions of about a point in a number of
stocks. The closing was heavy at the reac
tion. Outside of the grangers, the Pacifies and

WILL IT BE BUILT?
Fears .That Southeastern Oregon Is
Not to Have a Itailroad.
PORTLiAND, July 12. (To the Editor.)
It is a praiseworthy act, and much to
bo desired, for any railway company,
whether O. R. & N., Southern Pacific, or
A. B. Hammond's Corvallls & Eastern
road, to open up Southeastern - Oregon,.
provided Portland gets' the trade, in
stead of San Francisco. But the obstacle
seems to be, as Mr. Hammond's letter
says, to prevent other lines "building"
therein. In 1S76, when I traveled through
that country- with C P. Huntington and,
his chief engineer, ilr. Montague, I felt
that the Southeast "Oregon country should
be carried to Portland and connected at
Wlnnemueca. with the Central Pacific-, so I
organized the Oregonlan Railway of Scot- J
iiuiu in jxiou, lur iuul opoviiu yurpusc, ou
anxious wero capitalists for Its bonds
and stock that they were "Issued at HO,
or 10 per cent abovo par. But It seems
then, as now, every railway In existence
in Oregon did not 'want it built, and con
sequently the Oregon & California Rail
way, the O. R. & N. and Northern Pacific,
entered into a combination to oppose its
construction, and after 163 miles we had
built, to the McKenzIe Blver, they suc
ceeded in so sickening Scotch capitalists
as to take 6 per cent on then Investment
for 9? years and quit, much against my
strenuous opposition to the O. R. & N.
Co. lease, Which that company repudiated
In 2 years afterward, and the Scotch
lessors got left (as I predicted they would
before the lease), the xns!deratlon of
which was not to go to Portland or to
Eastern Oregon. The golng-to-Portland
part, however, I carried through after
ward, against all of their opposition, in
cluding that of the Scotch company, too.
Now it occurs to me the same game. Is
about to be played over again (although
I hope I am mistaken), in an attempt of
the Corvallls-& Eastern and Astoria & Co
lumbia River Railway Companies to sell
out to the O. R- & N. on the same old
conditions, that they do not extend to
Southeastern Oregon. I therefore sug
gest that the Chamber of Commerce and
Board of Trade prevent such a dog-in-the-manger
policy. How? By asking the
O. R. & N. and Mr. Hammond's com
pany the time when each proposes to
reach Eastern Oregon, and giving to the
first lino that will satisfy the people of
Portland that it means business the
unanimous co-operation, moral backing
and tho entire support of Portland there
to. If. this is not done, Portland may
find she Is making "a stick to break her
own back," as she did when she support
ed the O. R. & N. Co.'s opposition to the
Oregonlan Railway in-lSSO, the result of
wbch was the 39 years lease o tho for
mer company and the stoppage of the
Oregonlan Railway from over entering
Southeastern -Oregon. "Burnt bairns
dread the fire": so with its past experl
enco should Portland avoid any entangle
ments that may causo delay or moke
(through nonconstructlon) the Southeast
ern Oregon trade go to 6an Francisco,
as we all know there is a railroad now
building from Southeastern Oregon down
the- Klamath River for that very purpose,
to carry that trade to the Southern Pa
cific lines In California,
Nevertheless Portland should prefer tho
Oorvallis & Eastern Railway (Hammond's
line), extended to Southeastern Oregon,
seeing it Is the shortest and nearest to
Portland, provided guarantees arer given
that the company is in earnest and in
tends to build early. It needs grit, per
severance, determination of character and
staying powers for any syndicate of cap
italists (despite opposition) to build any
independent railway In Oregon, as tho
lines therein jealously guard the country
from outsiders. Why cannot tho Cham
ber of Commerce and Board of Trade pro
cure eome assurance that the Corvallls
& Eastern Company's promoters are not
using tho threat of extension of their
lines to Eastern Oregon to compel the
Union Pacific or O. R. 4 N. Co. to buy
out their present railways in Oregon, as
tho O. R. & Nv Co did when it leased the
Oregonlan Railway In 1JS1 for no other
purpose than to stop its extension to 1
Southeastern Oregon and to Portland as I

TVITJL-IAM' REED.
NEEDN'T FEAR LIGHTNING.
Only 312 Out of 80,000 People Struck
In & Year.
Theodore "Waters in Ainslco's.
A reference to lightning brought out
the fact that the "Weather Bureau is using
Its ponderous organization for the col
lection of lightning statistics. The offi
cials are less concerned with the Identi
fication of tho thunderbolt than they are
with its disastrous effects. According to
lightning statistics, 312 inhabitants of the
"United States, on an average, are struck
by lightning during each year. Twenty
five hundred were struck during the last
nine years. Farmers suffered most, prob
ably because of their exposed occupation,
for the danger from lightning Is found
to be four times as great In the country
as in cities. January naturally is the
least dangerous month, and July Is the
most dangerous 123 persons were killed
during July, 1S93. During the eight years
ending with 1S97, 755S buildings, valued at
517iff72,7r2, were destroyed by lightning;
4S91 of these were harns. Comparatively
few churches were struck. In 18SS bulld
ings. valued at $1,441,830 were destroyed.
New Tork State headed the list "with 393.
There were no disastrous strokes in Ida
Tip, Arizona, California, Oregon, Nevada
or Utah. In the same year 1S42 animals,
valued at 8.000. wero killed by 710
strokes of lightning. This mortality was
unequally divided among cattle, horses,
mules, pigs and sheep, whole flocks of
the latter being killed by single bolts,
There Is. no means of finding out the ex
act number of trees struck,, but it Is in
teresting to know that the Hat of liabil
ity is htaded by the oaks. Firs, beeches,
pines, larches, ash and birch trees are
most liable to be struck in the order
-named, on account of their conducting
qualities. The record show an Increase
in the number of damage-dealing Ught
Slng strokes, especially In Europe. But
the cause of this has not yet been discov
ered. The only definite fact observed by
the bureau Is that these violent manifes
tations seem to occur In connection with
the movement of sluggish cyclonic areas
across the country during tho warmer
months.
