sage of the Conger lard bill, for
the reason that it would inflict
great losses on the cattle industry

which was agreed to, calling on
the president for correspondence
in reference to the conduct of
Naval Ollicer Iteiter on the occa
sion of the arrest and killing of
General Barrundia and the action
of the navy department.
Morgan addressed the senate in
support of a bill reported ftom the

IN THE HofSE.
McKinlev asked unanimous con
sent to present for consideration a
bill providing that nothing in the
tarm act filial' he hell to repeal
or impair the reciprocity treaty
with the Hawaiian lslan ls. Bland
thought the bill should be consid
ered in a committee of the whole,
and JlcKinley moved that the
house go into a committee for thai
purpose, but withdrew his action
when he found it was impossible
to limit the time for the debate.
The speaker laid before the
house a sena'e bill amending the
land forfeiture act of Septembei
L".i, 18!H), regarding the period
within which settlers, purchasers
and others, under the provisions
of said act may make applica'ion
for the purchase of lands forfeited
thereby. When such period be
g ns to run from the passage of the
act, it shall In-gin to tun from the
dale of promulgation by the com
missioner of the general land
office of instructions to officers of
local land oliiccs for their direction
in the disposition of said lands.
The bill passed with v rbal
amendments.
In the committee of the whole
to-day the house considered the
paragraphs in the sundry civil ap
propriation bi'.l, relating to
Chandler's substi'ute for the
world's fair bill. Wilson, of West
Virginia, questioned the efficiency
of the national commission in the
expenditure of government money
and criticized the salaries paid to
the otlicials. The total amount of
the salary list, he said, was $08,
540, and under the authority given
the commission to Increase the
number of appointees as the fair
grew, the salaries would swell
until they swamped government
appropriation. Breckenridge, of
Kentucky, defended the action of
the appropriation committees.
It was the duty of congress to
make the fair a success, n t a
fadure, and he, as a member of
the appropriation committee, had
felt it his duty to concur in the
recommendation of the appropri
ations which have leen made.
Vaux, of Pennsylvania, made a
constitutional argument in opposi
tion to the provisions of the bill.
ISutterworth, of Ohio, iu opposi
tion to the substitute, said the
United States was committed to a
certain thing, no matter through
what instrumentality, the laitu
of the country was pledged. The
fair would not only result in an
advantage to Chicago, hut it
would also result in the glory of
this republic, The centennial ex-
Cosition had been of the greatest
enefit to the country. IJutter
worth appealed to the gentleman
whether Chicago had not fulfilled
all she had promised and more;
whether Illinois had not met,
every requirement of the law.
Chicago had raised $11,000,000.
This was a United States enter
prise. Had Chicago been liberal
or not, was she to be censured be
cause she deemed it proper to pay
a director general out of the na
tional treasury. Chicago had done
well. There was not an example
of the kind in history, where a
city had done so much for a na
tion, and he asked for Chicago
fair treatment. Replying to Wil
son's strictures uixrn the board of
lady managers, Butterworth cre
ated much s pplause by his gallant
allusions to the women of the
world. He proceeded to argue in
support of the st laries provided
by the bill, End warmly supported
their retention. Chandler then
offered his amendment. Mason
raised his point of order. Pend
ing the decision of the committee
the house took a recess.
Representative Morrill, chair
man of the Rauin investigation
committee, has made a report
which has been agreed to bv his
republican colleagues. The demo
cratic members of the committee
will piesent a minority report
with regard to the refrieerator
branch investigation. The report
says : "There was an entire ab
sence of any evidence showing or
going to show that any refrigera
tor stock ever bad been offered for
sale to, or purchased by any of
the employes of the pension office,
or that there was any stock held
by any one for the benefit of the
employes or any of their families,
the only exception being Bradley
Tanner. The committee finds that
Tanner ppent fonr days while he
was on his yearly leave of absence
on the company's business and
wrote a few letters for the com
pany ; but that he was never inter
ested in the universal refrigerator
compaiiynnd his promotion was
due to Commissioner Tanner, who
appointed him. The committee
finds there is no evidence to show
any favoritism to Lemon or any
other attorney and no truth in the
charge, that- Lemon- proenred the:
situation in the permoo-office lot
ms tormer employees. -
The action of the house to-day
in sustaining the decision of the
chair (Payson) by which Bland's
free coinage amendment to the
sundry civil bill was ruled out of
order, is thought by many to mean
that no free coinage bill can paw
this congress. There were prob
ably some republicans who voted
to sustain the decision of the chair
who, himself is a silver man, be
caused they believed the decision
was in accordance with the rules.
-Silver men have given up all hope
of getting any sort of a report from
the committee. Bland and Bartine
left the committee, refusing to
take any further part in the pro
ceedings, since it was evident to
them it was not the purpose of the
committee that anything should
be done. In doing this they placed
all their faith in their ability to
force an issue before the bonse,
by attracting provisions for the
free coinage appropriation bill. To
do this it was necessary as they
all appreciated to over rule the de
cision of the chair, which neces
sarily would be in accordance
with the rulee. To-day's vote was
a test of their strength on this sort
of a motion and the result makes
it apparent that the free silver ap
propriation bill in the house can
carry. The leaders of republicans
do not propose to let the tree coin
age bill go to the president as a
rider on appropriation, if they can
help it, as this would make his
position particularly embarrassing
and would probably result in the
failure of the appropriation bill,
making an extra session necessary.
TRAIN ROBBERS.

The Express Messegner Blew Out

PELtxo.Cal., Feb. 6. The pas
senger train was loarded by rob
bers at Alila this evening end
undercover of pistols the engineer,
Thorne, and fireman, Kadliff, were
forced to pull out to a point a mile
this side and halt. The engineer
and fireman were taken back to
the express car, the messenger
saw what was up, blew out his
lights and, instead of opening the
door commenced firing at the rob
bers. Many shots were ex
changed, one of which struck
Messenger Hasswell in the fore
head, causing a slight wound and
another striking the fireman in the
side, producing a fatal wound.
The robbers were beaten off and
abandoned the undertaking. The
train pulled to this point and Rad
liff's wounds were examined and
are pronounced fatal. The train
men say there was either two or
four robbers engaged, nnd from in
dications they are the same par

former robberies committed near
that oiiit.

M arysvii.i.k, Cal. Feb. 6.
Charles Kewcom, a well-known
rancher of Sutter county, was vic
timized out of $1500 yesterday by
confidence sharps. A man called
on turn, claiming be was looking
for land for investment, and ob
tained Newcom'o confidence, and
both got in a buggy and started to
look at the country. They were
met by another man, claiming he
was traveling in the interest of the
Louisiana lottery. He said he
wanted to overcome the prejudice
against the lottery by having sev
eral prominent men win large
prizes, and said he would have the
two new acquaintances win as
much as they would show coin.
Stranger No. 1 offered to put up
$8500 if Newcom would show
$15)0. Newcom agreed and both
came to town where Newcom got
his money, btranirer No. 1 pro
duced a tin box in which he said
was his $8500. He offered New
com another box to put his in.
The coin was put in locked up.
Stranger No. 2 said he bad re
ceived a telegram calling him to
Tehama and asked the men to
meet him at Marysville next Sat
urday. They agreed and Newcom
was handed his box and went
home. On opening the box next
morning be lound two Girt clods
and some shot in the box. The
confidence men had changed
ooxes ana sKippea witu the coin.

largest effected for many years.
The inspectors who mace tne

Eazleaton. who held a conference
with the general traveling inspec-
