C2) ASTORIA, OREGON: SUNDAY- JULY 29, 18S3 THE LATEST NEWS. Railroad Completion. San Francisco, July 2G. "With the ad vanccment of the Northern Pacific Railroad the transcontinental war is assuming greater proportion than ever, and though the fact is carefully dis guised, it is certain that the street commisions being paid at present are larger than have ever been paid heretofore. And the war is not to be confined only to passen ger business, but the freight ques tion is also being drawn in. The Union Pacific yesterday appointed a freight manager in this city and a careful watch will be placed up on the Central Pacific people to stop their diversion of freight over their Southern route. ilIf the Central people cut on the rates in favor of the Southern," said a gentleman immediately con nected with the Union Pacific 3'esterday, "the Union will make a like cut and go them one bet ter.' "Where will the cut be taken from?" "From the Union Pacific, and U necessary, the connecting lines will .stand part of the loss. There are great interests involved, and if necessary, a bold stand will be taken against the Central by all the Eastern and Middle roads.. Let the Union Pacific see that a cut has been mado and the music will begin. It will at the worst take but a -ear or two for them to build an independent line from San Francisco to the coast and then it will be good-by to the Central and Southern. I understand that Dil lon is now contemplating such a measure and laying plans for it. By the way, the United States Railroad Commissioner has re ceived a formal complaint from Dillon on the subject of diversion of traffic, and as. it closely affects the government, the matter will, no doubt, be looked into by him at the present examination." Another significant circum stance is that President Villard of the Northern Pacific has, it is authoritatively stated, bought the property formerly owned by the Clay street Bank at the gorn of Post, Market and Montgomery streets, and a large building will be erected there for offices of the company. The Central Pacific, not to be outdone, will, it is saidj also build a new office, centrally located, for the transaction of freight and passenger business, their present offices being loo far removed. Off fur llio Yellowstone. New York,. July 25. Ex Governor Boutwell of Massachu setts, ex-Senator Roscoe Conkling and a few friends started yesterday on their Yellowstone Park trip. Rufus Hatch will take a part' of about eighty persons on an excur sion to Yellowstone Park, starting August 10th and returning about September 15th. They go over the Northern Pacific railroad to Livingston and thence by railway, which is partly completed, south ward to Mammoth Hot Springs. The route homeward is not yet fixed, the courtesy of a number of railways having been extended to the party. About twenty distin guished foreigners are now on their way from Europe to join the party. Henry Villard will take a party of probably 200 or 300 peo ple to Yellowstone Park, starting August 2Sth. BcccIu-rVs UclUT. CniCAGo, July 21. Last Sun day Rev. J. Spencer Kennard, pastor of the Fourth Baptist Church, took the occasion of the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher's presence in this city to deliver a pleasantl- turned sermon combat ing the views of the great Brook lyn divine. To-morrow the papers will publish a breezy brotherly letter from Beecher to Brother Kennard. It is, perhaps, the most unequivocal statement of Beech er's views ever made public. He says he knows he is orthodox and evangelical as to the facts and the substances of the Christian rclif ion, and knows equally well that he is not orthodox as to the phi losophy which has hitherto been applied to these facts. He calls himself a cordial Christian evolu tionist becauso he docs not agree with the agnosticism of Spencer, Huxley and Tyndall. He believes the animal part of man has been evolved from beings below him, while in his spiritual nature he is the son of God. Man, he says, is not sinful by nature, but volun tarily. He does not believe in the fall of Adam nor in the inheritance of his guilt. The ortIiern Pacific -Chicago, July 24. The North orn Pacific road is gradually re ceiving all its rolling stock nocjes" sary for the opening and proper operation of its Hues. A few days ago two great mogul engines from the Baltimore Locomotive "Works passed through here and are now at Brainard. Heretofore the company has shipped its engines needed on the "Western Division to San Francisco and Portland, going by wajr of the Union Pacific roiid. It is under stood that the latter company charged, the Northern Pacific road $10,000 for the shipment of each engine. This charge was so large that the company decided to keep all the new rolling tock ut ! Brainard until it could be sent over the completed line. The Northern Pacific has addressed a circular to connecting lines, directing them to prepare and place on sale, in anticipation of the opening of the road Sep tember 1st, coupon tickets, read ing from St. Paul, Minn., and Du luth to all points on the Northern Pacific, Oregon Railway and Nav igation Company's lines, the Ore gon and California and the Olvin pia and Chehalis Valley railroads. The Northern Pacific yesterday commenced shipping Montana cat tle from Miles City to Chicago. The first shipment consisted of fifty-six carloads from Miles City. Sixty IVonlc !rovncil Xcnr Baltimore At an excursion on the Patap sco, near Baltimore, Md., on the 23d, the morning boat took down 300 persons, the 2 o'clock boat 120 and the G o'clock beat 75. This latter boat reached the pier at S:20 i. m., and prepared to take all hands back to the city at once, as requested by Father Starr. The excursionists, know ing that this was the only boat, dashed along the pier until they were stopped by a gate near the steamer. Some youths tried to climb over the gate and a man and boy seated themselves on the rail, with their legs hanging down. A too-sudden movement caused the raii to break and the two were thrown into the water. A com motion followed and there was a sudden crash and a chorused shriek . Splinters flew in all directions and about 200 people were struggling among broken timbers in eight feet of water. " Their cries weie so loud that watermen heard them two miles away. Those who wit nessed the accident stated that it was sickening. The moon had gone down and the only light was that shed by two feeble coal-oil lamps. Some of the rescuers took the barge lanterns and set them on the wharf, where two of them exploded and added fresh terror to the scene. The people on the barge threw life-preservers, stools and benches into the water. These struck a great man' persons and knocked them insensible. Others let down planks and ropes. In describable hopelessness and ter ror reigned. The shrieks, curses, groans and prayers for relief were heart-rending. Sixty were drowned and many dangerously wounded. Hon. Montgomery Blaik died at his residence in Stiver Springs last Thursday morning. NEW TO-DAY TO-NIGHT ! This Sunday Evn'g. July 29th Extra rerforniaucc by Request.
