mittee on finance.

that It lie on the table so it might be
called up at any time. After consider
able discussion this was agreed to, with
the understanding that It be laid before
the senate tomorrow.
Stewart Introduced an amendriient to
the Bland seigniorage bill providing for
the free coinage of silver. ky
HOUSE PROCEEDINGS., -Washington,
March 5. 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?" (Republican applause.)
The diplomatic and consular appropri
ation bill was presented to the house
today by Chairman McCreary, of the
committee on foreign aafflrs. It ap
propriates a total of $1,513,738.70, which
is $46,706.24 sles than the amount of the

Col. Wyantv under a guard of a full

looking dynamite bomb In his posses

FOUR URGENT REASONS.
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

arrested the notorious "Cowboy" Terry
and two Chinese whom he was trying
to get through to Seattle. Terry was
In the customs service under Collector
Beecher, and later a deputy sheriff In
King county. About two years ago he
was shot twice near Sedro In a fight In
which ..several officers took part while
attempting to arrest Chinese smugglers,
and In which Deputy Sheriff Poor, of
Seattle, was killed. Terry has been un

border for a month past. He Is now In
Jail here. ,

business buildings.

im WW ENEMIES'
So Says Archbishop Gross to the
Catholics of Portland.
HE ISSUES A CIRCULAR LETTER
Deploringr the'Attacks Made Against
the Catholic Rellgrlon-Excellent
Advice. '
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.

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. It also
calls upon all mino owners now on
strike to adjust matters to the end that
all may be prepared to strike together
when the time comes.
THE AMEND HONORABLE.
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. I

The Wilson Bill Almost Ready For the
Senate. -..'.
Washington,- March B. 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.
