Special to Thf. Astorian.1
Washington, June 3. Major
Powell, of the geological survey, was
before the house comtnittee on ap
propriations to-day, urging an oppro-
priation of $700,000 for surveys. Sen
ator Stewart and representative Van-
dever were also in attendance.
Stewart opposes the appropriation, if
Powell is to have charge of the irri-.
gation work, and fears that the money
will again be diverted from irri
gation surveys and applied to top
ographical purposes.
Stewart believes that Yandever has
forsaken him and his irrigation bill,
and gone over to the Powell crowd.
In regard to this Gen. Vandever said
"I simply introduced Powell's bill, as
chairman of the irrigation committee
as I did senator Stewart's bill and
several others. I am inclined to
agree with senator Stewart, that irri
gation work should be performed un
der the department of agriculture,
but some points in senator Stewart's
bill would make irrigation work inter
mediate. The house irrigation com
mittee will soon be ready to report on
its own accord."

ANOTHER BIG DEAL.
Atchison and IWexiean Central.
Special to The astorian.
Boston, June 4. Railroad circles
here to-day are excited over the
rumors of another gigantic consolida
tion which puts the St Louis and San
Francisco deal in the shade. It's
again the Atchison and this time it is
believed that Boston's two great in
vestments, the Atchison and Mexican
Central are the principals.
Director Magoun of the latter com
pany originated speculation on the
subject by saying that his road would
shortly follow up the policy shown in
the St. Louis purchase by another and
still more important deal. This after
noon at the closing hours the
street was startled by a story
of Mexican amalgamation. This
was added to by the knowledge of
president L. C Wade of the central's
election as a director of the Atchison.
The fact that Atchison paid Mexican
Central securities to-day has been ctt
plained on various bases but the Atch
ison deal is the only one accepted.
Financial articles in the afternoon pa
pers all speak seriously of the deal
and point out how easy it would be to
bring the two great Boston properties
together.
Mexican 5s would be retired and
it would be Atchison 4s against Mex
can 4s, and Atchison incomes against
Mexican incomes and stock against
stock.

MARRIED ON VERY SHORT NOTICE.
Two
Montana Misers Who Came
Chicago in Search of Wives.
to
The next Montana miner who regis
ters at Gore's hotel, says the Chicago
Tribune of May 23rd, will be under
surveillance from the time he enters
the house until he goes away. Tues
day afternoon two plainly dressed
men, with pronounced western man
ners, registered as "H. B.Swan and
W. Cotton, Butte City, Mont"
They were assigned a good double
room and stated that they would be in
the city for a month at least
"We are on a powerfully impor
tant errand," said Mr. Cotton, "and
we can't just tell when we'll get
away."
That afternoon the miner stopped
one of the hall maids and asked where
a "general" employment agency could
be found. After a few words, Mr.
Cotton confided his errand in this
city to the girl, and in that way de
scribed what ho meant by a "general"
employment agency.
"It's like this' he said. "Henry and
I have been in the rough west for
nigh onto twenty-five years. We got
a little money, but it don't do us any
good so long as we are lonesome. We
live alone. See?"
The girl blushed, and throwing
down her broom told the stranger to
go on with his tale of woe.
"You ain't interested yourself, are
you?" asked Mr. Cotton. "I reckon
I not, but you are just hearing me as a
f part of your "Work to make the guests
feel at home. O, this is not the first
time I've traveled. Well, to go on,
Henry and I have good homes near
Butte. We have a few thousand dol
lars and there is more coming. Now,
we made up our minds we would come
to Chicago, round up these employ
ment agencies that I heard so much
of, and each bring home a wife. If
she can't love as at first perhaps she
can cook. There, I've told you what
I came here for. Now if you can send
us to an employment agency, or, bet
ter still, send us two girls who are
willing to try a go at marriage, why
I'll stake yon to a Cue dress for Sun
das." "I think I can find two girls," an
swered the maid, a3 she stooped to
pick up the broom.
"When?" asked the AVesterner.
"To-morrow morning at 10 o'clock
in the parlor down stairs."
"Bully."
The hardy old timers felt chagrined
tne next morning when they went into
the hotel parlor, but they had gone
too far to back out They had been
in the room only a few moments when
the maid to whom one had talked the
previous day and her companion en
tered. Without using a line of poetry
the maid declared that she and her
companion were ready to take a new
lease of life. The matches were made,
