Railroad Notes. Judge Joseph Buflfington in the United States circuit court, Monday, appointed Thomas M. King, second vice-president of the Baltimore & Ohio railway, as re ceiver for the Pittsburg it Western rail way. He will give a bond in the sum of fco ,000. This action was taken after two I bills in equity had been filed by the Mer cantile Trust Company of New York city. The plaintiff's claim that in July 1887, the Pittsburg & Western company issued a mortgage for $10,000,000 to secure t>onds which have lieen hypothecated. In IS9I another mortgage for $3,500,000 was issued, The outstanding indebted ness is placed at $3,000,000. The second suit was on a promissory note for SIOO, 000. This would SAell the entire indebt ness to $16,600,000. Judge M. W. Acheson made an order confirming the appointment for the west ern district of Pennsylvania of receivers John K. Cowan and Oscar G. Murry, as receivers for the Baltimore Jt Ohio. A number of other papers were also filed in the matters involving the Baltimore & Ohio troubles. A copy of a promissory note given to the Mercantile Trust Company for sl,. 000,000 was also filed. In answer to this Thomas M. King confesses judgment for $929,470 03. The Baltimore & Ohio railroad went into the hands of receivers, last Saturday. John K. Cowen, its president, and Osgar G. Murry, its third vice-president, will operate it for the benefit of creditors and stockholders. The company was unable to negotiate loans to meet interest and other payments due and als>ut to liecome due. The line was chartered in 1X27, and included in its system 2,06s miles of railway. The New York, Pennsylvania Ohio railroad was sold for $10,000,000 at Ak ron, 0.. 011 last Tuesday, but the receiver and Master Commissioner John Tod, of Cleveland, under order of the courts of Summit county, Ohio; Crawford county, l'a., and Chautauqua county, N. V. The purchase was made for the first mortgage bondholders. As won as the deeds are filed the road will be reorganized as the Erie Railway company. A Uill Granting a pension to Elizabeth Martin.

On Friday the Senate, by a vote of 64 yeas to 6 nays, toot the first decisive step toward the recognition of the Cuban in surgents as belligerents. The resolution, which is a concurrent one, does not need executive sanction, but becomes operative immediately upon adoption by the other branch of the Congress. The section offering the friendly offices of the United States to Spain fcr the recognition of Cuban independence is the amendment offered by Senator Cameron. In the first section of the resolutions strict neutrality between the contending parties is speci ficallv mentioned. The resolutions mean much to Cuba, and are exjiected to I*.* of great value to the people who are fighting for freedom from the rule of Spain. The resolutions in full are as follows: "•Resolved, By the Senate the house of representatives concurring) that, in the opinion of Congress a condition of public war exists between the govern ment ot Spain and the government pro claimed and for some time maintained by force of arms by the people of Cuba; and that the United' States of America should maintain a strict neutrality between the contending powers, according to each all the rights of belligerents in the ports and territory of the United States. "Resolved, That the friendly offices of the United States be offered by the presi dent to the Spanish government for the recognition ot the independence of Cuba. " The six senators who voted in the negative were Caffery. Chilton, George, Hale, Morrill and Wetmore. The an nouncement of the result was greeted with great applause in th? galleres. The first Presidental veto of this session of Congress was overridden by the House Saturday, by a vote of 198 to 38. !22 more than the requisite constitutional two thirds. All the Republicans and 32 Democrats voted for the bill, while the votes to sustain the President were all cast by Democrats. The' bill authorizes the Governor and local officers of Arizona to lease the edu cational lands of the territory for school purposes. The President's objection to the bill was that it did not give the Secretary of the Interior power to disap prove the leases, and did not throw proper safeguards about the timl>er on the lands. The" statement was made on the floor that the bill was identical with a similar bill passed by the last Congress relating to Oklahoma Territory, at the request of the Secretary of the Interior, and that the present bill had received the written approval of both Secretary Smith and the commissioner of the general land office. The statement was also made that the lands proposed to be leased were now in the possession of cattlemen and others, rent free. The house on Monday passed the fol lowing resolutions on the Cuban matter: Resolved, By the House of Representa tives the Senate concurring that in the opinion of Congress a state of public war exists in Cuba, the parties to which are entitled to belligerent rights and the I'nited States should observe a strict neutrality between the belligerents. Resolved, That Congress deplores the destruction of life and property caused by the war now waging in that island and believing that the only permanent solu tion of the contest equally in the interest of Spain, the people af Cuba and other nations, would be in the establishment of a government by the choice of the people of Cuba, it is the sense of Congress that the government of the United* States should use its good offices and friendly influences to that end. Resolved, That the United States has not intervened in struggles between any Euiopeon governments and their colonies on this continent, but from the very close relations between the people of the United States and those of Cuba, in consequence of its proximity and the extent of the commerce between the two peoples, the present wir is entailing such losses upon the people of the United States that Con gress is of the opinion that the govern ment of the United States should l>e pre pared to protect the legitimate interests of our citizens by intervention, if neces sary. Spaniards Attack A Consulate. Dispatches from Barcelona state that an attack has been made upon the Unit ed States consulate in that city, on Sat urday, notwithstanding the fact that the building was guarded. During the day a procession comprising 10,000 persons, headed by four Republican members of the Chamlier of Deputies,paraded through the principal streets of the city as a dem onstration against the action of the American Senate. A strong guard had been placed about the American consu late in anticipation of trouble, As the procession passed it there was some de risive whistling, intersjiersed with eat calls. The crowd tried to fore:: their way into the building, but the police and gendarmes succeeded in driving them away, but not until Itaey had been forced to charge the mob with drawn sabers. While this trouble was going on, the main body of the procession continued its march to the town hall, where the leaders of tile demonstration handed to the mayor a strongly worded protest against the action of the American Sen ate, and also against the speeches that had been delivered therein on the Cuban question, it being declared that some of the speakers had grossly insulted Spain and the Spanish government in defend ing Cuban bandits and outlaws. Subsequently a great crowd assembled in the I'laza Cataluna, and a numt>er of patriotic speeches were delivered. The crowd became greatly excited by the burning oratory of the speakers, and af ter the meeting had broken up, a large number of those who had listened to the words glorifying Spain and denouncing the United States, proceeded to the American consulate, where they gave vent to their patriotism by stoning the building, much to the damage of the windows. 111 the evening there was another out burst of disapproval of the United States and all things American. This time it took the form of publicly dishonoring the American flag. The rioters had pur chased somewhere a large American flag, which, after it had been dragged through the streets, was pulled to pieces amid cries of "long live Spain" and "down with the Americans." There is still much excitement in the city. After this outrage on the American flag, the mob became more violent, and a proposition to make a further demon stration against the American consulate was speeilily acted upon. The mob pro ceeded to the consulate, in the meantime arming themselves with stones. Arriv ing at the consulate, a perfect volley of missiles was directed against the shield over the doorway bearing the American coat of arms, which was battered almost to pieces. The mob in some way became possessed of several American flags, which were destroyed amid ribald jests and expressions of contempt for the na tion they represented. The situation was becoming more and more threatening, when reinforcements for the guards at the consulate arrived in the shape of a detachment of mounted gendarmes. The crowd was ordered to ilisjs rse, which they sullenly refused to do, whcreution the gendarmes charged them with drawn swords and put them to flight. Sev.:ial of the rioters were in jured by being trampled upon. Until a late hour the boulevards were thronged by an excited crowd singing "Marseil laise" and patriotic Spanish songs. Popular feeling is bitter against the I'nited States because of the action ofthe Senate in adopting a resolution favoring the granting of belligerent rights to the Cuban rebels. The sto:k market yester day responded to the excitement and there was a material decline in purely Spanish and Cuban securities. In view of the financial difficulties under which the government is lalsiring this is a most unfortunate time for Spanish securities to decline in value. Tlic true Americans will throw up their hats for the Cubans. Let us have an end to the dominion of the abomnia blc Spanish in this continent. MiI.LER STOW N M USINGS. Walter H Ho/t of Geo. A.
