In the house Breckenrldge reported the urgent defi ciency bill with the senate amendments. The latter were not concurred In and the bill was sent to the conference. McCreary, of Kentucky, asked unani mous consent for the; passage ot the senate resolution for the appointment of a commission to represent this govern ment at the Antwerp exposition. Bailey, of Texas, objected to the bill to make Bonner's Ferry, Idah, a port of entry. Passed. After one or two more attempts to get things passed by unanimous con sent, the house took up the rejulnr or der of business. Delegate Josephs Introduced a bill' for the admission of New Mexico. The house then went Into committee jf the whole on the pension bill. Hepburn, republican, of Iowa, declar ed that the late Confederate states, con tributed not one dollar to the payment of pensions; of the $160,000,000 of inter nal revenue- taxes the south paid less than $9,000,000; of $177,000,000 of customs receipts the south paid but $4,000,000; of miscellaneous receipts, less than $2,00, 0000. "South," said he, addressing the southern members, "you contribute less than $15,000,000 to the revenues of the government. How do you get that back? Nine millions returns as sugar .bounty; $5,000,000 In pensions and $5,000,000 as deficit In postal receipts. You, there fore, receive hack $3,000,000 more than you contribute; you contribute not a cent to northern pensions. What differ ence does It make to you what we do with our money?"

President Ives' Request to the Bond holders of the Northern Pacific. New York, March 6. President Bray. ton Ives, on behalf of the directors of the Northern Pacific, haa officially asked the bondholders of the company to withhold their acceptance of the agreement promulgated by the commit tee claiming to represent the consoll dated bondholders, and states four rea sons for his request. Those are that the publication of such an agreement Is premature; that the scope of the com mittee Is too limited; that the constitu Hon of the committee Is unfortunate, and that apart from the foreign interest hitherto represented by Mr. Villard, the committee owned and controla but limited amount of bonds. Ives urges that while the Northern Pacific earn lngs continue to decrease, and In the absence of a full, accurate financial statement from the receivers, no basis for a plan of reorganization can. be presented. The directors, Mr. Ives says, own personally large amounts of bonds and represent millions belonging to their friends. He finally urges that a new committee representing all Inter ests be formed, or that the present com mittee be enlarged. A SMUGGLER CAUGHT. ,.Waatcom, March 6. At 1 o'clock this morning, on the Seattle, Lake Shore and Eastern railroad, three miles south of Sumas, Customs Inspector Flanagan arrested the notorious "Cowboy" Terry and two Chinese whom he was trying to get through to Seattle.

' Associated Press. Portland, March 5. Owing to the re cent attacks upon the Roman Catholic church, Rev. Archbishop Gross has Is sued a circular letter of advice to the Catholics of this city. The letter says; Of late there has been begun an as sault upon the Catholic church In this country similar In Its methods and aim to that of the 'Know-Nothing' party, which was so quickly and completely rejected by the American people. A number of speeches and lectures full of animosity against our holy religion have already been- made, and many more will be delivered. We hereby make known to you our advice and heartfelt wish that Vou will remain away from such lectures and speeches. The mis representations and calumnies which you would hear on such occasions might arouse you to say and da things that are Improper, and which in cooler mo ments you would repent of. It Is sad to see men endeavoring to stir up a strife between citizens of our common republic- who have- been living In social harmony, notwithstanding the differ ence of creed. Let us love our enemies, return good for evil, and pray for those who persecute and revile us. Let us trust to the good sense of the American people to discern the' slanders and false hoods 'uttered against us, and Imitate the splendid clvir virtues of Charles Carroll, of Cnrrollton; Commodore Bar ry, Gen. Sheridan and ai host of Catho lics who have won universal esteem by their excellent citizenship." McREAVY'S CASE. Argument Before the Washington Su preme Court Yesterday, Olympla, March 6. The case of the state, on complaint of John McReavy, vs. Thomas Burke was heard In the su preme court today. . The proceedings grew out of the removal by the govern or of McReavy as capltol commissioner. The contention was that it Is well es tablished that where the power to re move an officer for cause Is repoBed In a tribunal or officer, that power cannot be exercised without notice and hear ing, and that the exercise of such func tion Is judicial in character and con trary to our Idea of government, thaf any citizen should be prejudiced In prop erty or reputation without notice and opportunity to be heard. Respondent held that the principal universally rec ognized was that the power of the legis lature over the removal of an Individual was unlimited except when proscribed by the constitution, and that In the ex ercise of such power the legislature may clothe any official with such power and prescribe the manner In which such power shall be exercised. When the constitution or legislature gives the governor the power to remove an offi cer, and Is silent as to the modeto exer cise, It follows that the governor may determine whether any cause exists for removal, and courts cannot dictate how he shall perform his duty. MR. COLEMAN DEAD. Eugene, Ore., March B. D. H. Cole man, who was wounded In Thursday ight's tragedy, Is dead. hold themselves In readiness for a gen eral strike for higher wages at as early a date as the national convention, which meets in April, may determine.

The Oregonlan Retracts the Statement Made Regarding Dr. Candlanl. Portland, Ore., March 5. On Thurs day morning last the Oregonlan. pub lished a long story In behalf of Ermlno Glonlnl, an Italian who is serving a Hfe sentence In Walla Wralla peniten tiary for the murder of a man named Rlcco ten years ago. An effort was be ing made to secure a pardon for Glo nlnl, and in a published article which was printed with a good motive and out of sympathy for the prisoner, there was a serious reflection on Dr. C. F. Candl anl, of Cascade Locks, a man of good standing. It was Intimated that Glo nlnl was a victim of Candianl's cun ning, Candlanl being virtually charged with the crime. The Oregonlan was misled In the matter, and has published a full vindication and retraction to Dr. Candlnni as an act of simple justice to him. DECLARED CONSTITUTIONAL. The Case of Shlvely vs. Bowlby and Parker Finally Settled. ' Washington, March 6. The constitu tionality fo the tidewater laws of the state of Oregon was affirmed by the supreme court today In passing upon the sultof Charles W. Shlvely, plaintiff In error, against John Q. A. Bowlby and W. W. Parker, which was a contest over wharfing privileges on the Colum bia river at Astoria, Justice Gray af firmed the decision of the supreme court of Oregon, and asserted that when lands were granted under general land laws bordering on navigable waters, no rights to the land under water were given, and such rights depend on local laws. Congress never acted on the pol icy that tide-water lands could be given away piecemeal, but held them for pub lic purposes under regulations which the states might make.

The Wilson tariff bill was the subject of earnestcon- sultatlon among the senators today. It reached a certain stage of complete ness, and It la generally understood that If a definite agreement could be reached on sugar It would then be possible to agree upon everything slee. It Is under stood that the demands made by demo cratic senators who opposed the bill In the form In which It was first presented have been met and tentatively agreed upon; but even these agreements are subject to the approval of the treasury department and the needs of the gov ernment In the matter of revenue. It appears, also, that the proposition for an increased tax on whiskey Is mixed up with the proposed duty on sugar. SURPRISED OFFICIALS. Tacoma, March 6. The decision of Justice Gray, of the United States su preme court, today, vs. the claim of the Northern Poclflo Railroad Co. to con trol the tide lands and harbor line along Its land grant near Tacoma, was a sur prise to the officials here. The conv pCny had spent $250,000 In making Im provements by which over a mile of made land was added along Its tracks. When the state harbor line commission attempted to establish harbor lines a. year ago the company secured a re straining order. The state appealed to the supreme court. AN IMPORTANT DECISION. Washington, March 6. The claim of the Northern Pacific to control the tide lands and harbor line along Its land grants In the state of Washington, near Tacoma, was denied by the supreme court today In a decision In the case of Prosser et al. vs. the Northern Pacific.
