THE UNION PACIFIC.
In conformity to an editorial appear
ing in Tin: Ciiuoxiclk yesterday relative-
to the condition of the Union Paci
ilc, wo subjoin today the following dis
patch from Omaha :
An extraordinary meeting of the
board of directors of the Union Pacific
has been called for next Tuesday at
Boston. Comptroller Oliver V. Mink
has been on the ground for several days
here doing everything in his power to
cut expenses to the lowest limit. Ow
ing to the sickness of President S. II. II.
Clark, Mr. Mink is the executive head
of the committee. Speaking of the sit
uation today, he said :
"Physically, the Union Pacific is in
excellent condition, but financially we
are compelled to retrench in every de
partment. We have met our August
interest and tho other obligations falling
due on that data and have money to
spare, but so gloomy is the outlook that
our attention is wholly directed toward
cutting down our expenses. When 1
was in Omaha several weeks ago,
things looked more hopeful than they
do now. Nebraska and portions of
Kansas promiso magnificent returns,
but the enormous trackage of the Union
Pacific west of North Platte gives little
hope of yielding satisfactory returns' for
90 and perhaps 120 days. The western
Htction of this continent is in a condi
tion that absolutely requires from us
the most aggressive attempts at re
trenchment. The movement of the
commodities from these western sec
tions has completely stopped, and our
yards are full of empty freight cars and
our engines are lying idle in the round
houses."
"Then you have reached bedrock?"
"Bedrock has been reached, but we
must have something more than bed
rock at this time to counteract the in
fluences at work. We will be compelled
to reduce our forces still further and
may possibly have to cut salaries to
meet the present exigencies. This last
is a step which we will discuss very con
eervatively before taking action, but it
will probably have to be considered.
Mr. Clarke's well-known sentiments re
garding the men in his employ will post
pone this action to trie last moment, but
when other sources fail to meet the re
quirements then the last resort must be
accepted as inevitable.
"As to a receivership, it has not even
been thought of. We are meeting obli
gations as they fall due. Our credit is
first-class, and physically we are in good
condition."
Following up the order for tetreneh
ment, some 1,000 miles of passenger ser
vice will bo discontinued Sunday next,
trains between Ogden ana Portland be
ing taken off. This will give only a day
eervice, the night service being aband
oned As an example of tho somberness
that exists in railroad circles, it is stated
by a gentleman who knows that 150
telegraph operators have been discharged
from the service of the Union Pacific.
Gov. Altgeld to Gor. Waite "My
frendt, the only time you vill efer ride
in blood is when you are in a cable car
and it runs over a dawg."

Washington, August :. Minister
Blount's report on tho Hawaiian (situa
tion has been received. It is long and
very comprehensive. Tho annexation
plan is discussed in all details, and tho
conclusion drawn that Hawaiians do not
want annexation. Minister Stevens' act
in raising the American flag and lauding
tho marines is referred to at length, and
the report puts that individual in any
thing but an enviable light. The
idea of an annexation is shown
to have been the desire, not of the
people, who, according to the
principles of this government, have
tho right to govern, but of the
few. Tho report will probably not bo
made public until sent to congrese.
When published the popular feeling
bere in favor of annexation will, it is be
lieved, bo allayed. The result of tho
report, so those who have seen it say,
will be that tho government will permit
the Hawaiians to govern themselves,
and no other government will bo al
lowed to interfere.

The coming woman
can be healthy. She will be,
if she's wisely cared for. As
she enters womanhood, Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription
builds up and strengthens the
system and regulates and pro
motes the functions. It's a
supporting tonic, and a quiet
ing, strengthening nervine. It
corrects and cures all those
delicate derangements and
weaknesses peculiar to the
sex. In every case for which
it's recommended, the " Favor
ite Prescription " is guaranteed
to give satisfaction. If there's
no help, there's no pay. It
does all that's claimed for it,
or the money is refunded.
It's a risky way to sell it
but it isn't your risk.
