THIS IS RELUCTANTLY CONCEDED The Senate's Action Taken as an In dication That the Treaty Will Be Shelved. Washington, Feb. 25.-The Hawaiian treaty is thought to be dead for this ses sion. This is reluctantly conceded even by its friends. The action of the senate today in refusing to go into executive session, though the action doubtless had some reference to Hanchett's circuit judge nomination, is also accepted as conclusive indication that the treaty would be shelved for the remainder of the session. The treaty matter can, of course, be taken up in the extra session, which will convene immediately after the present congress dies," but unless some marked change occurs, there is be lieved to be no prospect of action upon it during the life of the present adminis tration. A possible knowledge of its disposition on the part of the senate had reflex influence on the action of the house. There was to have been a meet ing of the ways and means committee of the house today to consider the resolu tion, but it did not take place. One re publican committeeman said his col leagues had united against the resolu tion. He predicted the resolution would be permitted to fall to the ground. The democratic members of the committee are still examining the subject, but it does .not seem likely the resolution will be pushed. More Session Laws. Salem, Feb. 25. Senator Gates' fish and game bill (No. 86,) was filed by the governor. It punishes the nae of sink boxes, batteries, swivel or pivot guns, either from shore or boat or raft ; blinds (except 100 feet from the shore of lakes) hunting between sundown and sunrise (except on grain and generally in Curry county); offering for sale or killing grouse, pheasant, quail, ringnecked, China, silver, golden, copper or green Japanese pheasant, bob-white, jack snipe or prairie chicken, except between October 15 and November 15, and except tnat prairie chicken may be killed in July, August and September, and except that no quail, bobwhiteor pheasant may be at any time killed east of the Cas cades by a fine of $15 to if 100 and costs, or equivalent imprisonment, The pen alty is extended to transportation of the birds, except alive for exhibitory or propagation purposes. Wild ducks, geese and swan may only be sold in November and December ; trout only in September and October. Deer must not be hunted between December 1st and August 1st, or from an hour after sunset until a half hour before sunrise of any day, or in any case unless the carcass is used for food. Moose, elk and mountain sheep may not be taken between Dec ember 1st and August 1st, or at any time for their skin, hides, horns or hams. These parts must at no time be sold or transported. The animals themselves must not be held in custody during their close season, and the possession of a hide or skin is prima facie evidence of having killed the animal. One-half of all fines go to the informer, and concur rent jurisdiction is given to justices of the peace. Senator Crosa' road bill, which pro vides as beforejfor working out road tax or paying it in cash.tadds: Every such male actually in said district shall be subject to such tax at any time from the first day of February of each year to the first day of the following February. And the supervisor may at any time assess such tax and collect the same ; and the presumption shall be conclusive that such road tax has not been worked nor paid unless such person so assessed show a receipt for road tax or road work for the same year, either in the same or another district or state ; and if an action be brought against any one for said per sonal road tax, and he should, after the bringing of said action, produce a receipt for the same, having failed to produce it before the action was brought, the costs of the action are to be taxed to him and enforced as a judgment for a fine in a criminal action. The supervisor must have two-thirds of the total road work in his district performed before April 1, in each year, unless the county court ex tends his time." County courts may in their discretion levy a tax upon all the taxable property in the county not to ex ceed 5 mills, and in addition a poll tax of $2. These taxes are to be collected the same as county taxes, and kept as a separate road fund used solely for such purposes. Bridges may be built or re paired out of the general fund. The county court is to apportion the road taxes to the road districts, and the super visors expend them under its surveill ance. County roadmasters, where they exist, do this work, and must file a re port on opening proposed roads before they can be located. This is the only section of the law affected. Senator Huston's fire-arm act, which the governor approved, makes it unlaw ful for any person over the age of sixteen years, with or without malice, purposely to point or aim any fire-arm, either loaded or empty, at or toward another person, except in self-defense, on pain of $10 to $500 fine or ten days' to six months' imprisonment, or both. Senator Weatherford's school district bill merely reproduces the existing stat ute, except that it substitutes the word "four" for "ten," thus extending the operation of the law to towns of 4,000 inhabitants. The arrangement is that such towns must consist of one school district with boundaries identical, ex cept that any portions of a district pre viously not in the city limits is o con tinue in the district. The county' clerks and sheriffs of Grant and Crook are to receive for their services an additional compensation of 33 per centum, except in the case of tax collections made by Grant's sheriff.. By Dr. Dodson's bill, Baker, Union, Jackson, Lake, Umatilla, Wasco and Klamath are now exempt from this sec tion (No. 2,343) of the code. Victory at Liii. Topeka, Kan., Feb. 25. In the su preme court this morning, Chief Justice Horton rendered a decision, Justice Johnson concurring, and Justice Allen, populist, dissenting, which sustained the Douglass, or republican house, as the legal and constitutional house of representatives of Kansas' legislature, and incidentally declared the populists had no standing. The decision was on the case known as the Gunn habeas cor pus case. The republican house caused James C. Gunn to be subpemei to testify in the contested election case. Gunn ignored the summons, claiming the re publican house was not the constitution ally organized house of representatives. The republican house ordered its ser-geant-at-arms to arrest Gunn and take him before the bar of the house to re ceive punishment for contempt. Gunn at once commenced habeas corpus pro ceedings in the supreme court. In the decision today the court denied the ap plication for the writ, deciding the re publican house was legally and consti tutionally organized, and that it had the right and power to enforce its mandates. Pooling Contracts Void. St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 25. Today in the United States circuit court an important decision was rendered in the case of the Central trust company, of New York, et al., versus the Wabash, St. Louis & Pa cific Railway company et al. It came before the court in the shape of an inter vening petition of the Milwaukee fc St. Paul against the receivership, to obtain possession of certain profits which were accrued to them in a combination of railroads under contract. Judge Thayer decided against the petitioners on their first maintenance, holding that pooling contracts are void, because opposed to public policy, and also against them on their second because the partnership issue revolved entirely about the ques tion of pooling.

Another Place for Mr. Harrison. New York, Feb. 26. Considerable correspondence has been going on be tween President Harper, of Chicago uni versity, and John D. Rockefeller, con cerning the best methods of promoting th,growth of the university. From a hint dropped by the millionaire, it is be lieved a chair of constitutional law will be endowed in connection with Chicago university, the salary to he $25,000 per year, and that President Harrison will be invited to accept the position, and to lecture at least twice a week to students of the Chicago educational institution. Democrats Will Resort to Cloture. Washington, Feb. 26. After de nouncing the republicans for two years the democrats are to go back on their record and resort to cloture. They will confine it to the sundry civil bill for the present, because it iupon that bill the filibusterers are blocking legislation. It will cause a merry row, but the demo crats realize that something must be done to get the appropriation bills through. Miners Will Liberate Convict. Nashville, Tenn., Feb. 26.

Mr. Albert Favorite, of Arkansas City, Kan., wishes to give our readers the benefit of his experience with colds. He says: "I contracted a cold early last spring that settled on my lungs, and bad hardly recovered from it when I caught anotherAhat hung on all summer and left me with a hacking cough which I thought I never would get rid of. I had used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy some fourteen years ago with much suc cess, and concluded to try it again. When I got through with one bottle my cough had left me, and I have not suf fered with a cough or cold since. I have recommended it to others, and all speak well of it." 50 cent bottles for sale by Blakeley& Houghton, Druggists. Joseph V. Dory, of Warsaw, 111., wb troubled with rheumatism and tried a number of different remedies, but says none of them seemed to do him any good; but finally he got hold of one that speedily cured him. He was much pleased with it, and felt sure that others similarly afflicted would like to know what the remedy was that enred him. He states for the benefit of the public that it is called Chamberlain's Paist Balm. For sale by Blakeley & Hough ton, Druggists. NOTICE.
