( ) ' There will bo firing all along the line In the house next week against the McKlnloy tariff law , " said Mr. Bryan of Nebraska to TIIK Ur.n correspondent this afternoon. Mr. Uryun is a democratic member of the com- ailllco on ways nnd moans , is the author of Iho free binding twluo bill , and says he Is eager for the fray. ' At Iho meeting of the commlttoo thli morning , " continued Mr. Bryan , ' * the majority iotod to report the three bills pro viding for free binding twlno , frco wool and free cotton ttos and cotton hanging , and to urgotholr adoption. The bills will bo re ported to thu house as soon ns the republican members of the committee got their reports ready. All of the measuras will bo reported nt ono ttmo and all will coma up for discus- nlon nt thosamo tlmo , hut each will stand upon Its feet and will bo voted upon * cp- nratclv. Mr. Springer wrote the report on frca wool , 1 wrote that upon binding twlnu and Mr. Tumor of Georgia wrote the report upon free cotton tics nnd frco bagging. Uach , you see , took ns his subject that which Is of most Interest to his local constituency. Will Tiilut u Wlilo Hunter. "We turned over our reports to tbo repub lican members of the commlttoo today and only await the completion of their minority reports.Vo certainly expect the bills to go to the house by next Monday and probably this week. " "When will they oomo up for debate In the lioasei" was asked. ' No tlmo has yet been fixed , but there will bo not moro than two or thrco days elapse nflor the mensuroi nro reported before they \\M bo taken up for consideration. " "Will the appropriation bills take prcce- dcncol" "Iso , sir ; although Iho tariff dcbato may bo temporarily hud nsidoul any time to take up the upnropriallun bills as they nro reported. ' "will the debate take a general range , or Vlll It bo con lined to Iho specific subjects In Iho bills ! " Oh , every speech is expected to take a Wldo range and cover the ontlro catalogue , otherwise nearly every member would make a dozen or moro speeches. When binding twine is befool the house , for Instance , you will hoar about steel rails , sugar bounty. clothing nml every other article mentioned in the t'arlff law. The debute upon the tbrco bills now ready for the report of the house may lust a month , but there will bo no un necessary delay , nor will any extraneous matter be admitted. Wo oxpcct to pass tbo bills just as they will bo reported and force the flghtto a liulsn without any other propo sition interfering. In ether words , when my free binding twluo bill goes to tbo senate wo will know whether that body dares suppress or vote It down just ns it stands without re lation to any other item in the tariff law. \Vo do not expect any misunderstanding or dodging. " Whcro Nchriiilcn L'nmrs In. "What do you expect to do with the pro test , which will como to you from the great binding twine industry which has just started at Fremont , lu your state , nnd which promises to supply the entire country by the aid ot its offsprings within a vcrv short tlmo I" This question was evidently not expected by Mr. Bryan nnd evidently was not wel come , but ho mot It by saylnc : "If you will notice , uiv bill does not affect tiomp twine , the kind mndo now in my state , but simply makes frco twlno manufactured from jute , mnnlln , sisal grass and other foreign grown libers. 1 novice that of the M,0U ) ( ) tons of binding twine nianufucluicd in this country the lust year , but 7,000 tons were manufactured from hemp. " In this position Mr. Bryan completely over looked the matt'jr of labor nnd held to thu nrgumont that as long as hemp wus protected thcro should bo no complaint. lie then udded Incautiously that It It wcro not for the fuel that It would necessitate an over hauling of the schedules in the tariff law re lating to ether articles made from hemp ha would Imvo cone further and not oxcoptcd hemp twlno from the bill. "I think hemp twine should DO on tbo list also , " ho said. Mr. Bryan takes the position that the farmers , oven though the manufacture from hemp will give ifiom n good market foi another of their homo products , prefer imme diate lower prices for the twlno tfiov must buy nnd that the time necessary to place the binding twlno Industry upon a" footing sufll- ciontly formidable to reduce prices to a level Tvlth the urticlo which may bo Imported free Bf duty will not lustlfy present "sacrifices" in the matter of increased prices to con- Him.ors , They Will Kiptiriiuunt ut Any Cost. llo says ho Is willing to try the experiment oven in the face of the fact thut in his owi state thoru is n binding industry of immense proportions which is just getting on Its feet , It has always been the invariable ruloof thi ways and moans committee for the majority , alter preparing a tariff bill und agreeing upon their report to accompany it , to ullou ttio minority members of tbo commlttoo r reasonable tlmo to examine in confidence the bill and majority report , so as to prepare n statement to the houso. The state ment wns current nt the copitol todaj that Chairman Springer and follow democrats on the committee had decided tc rloluto this precedent und send tbclr bills and reports to the huuso without allowing Iho republicans an opportunity to prepare n minority report fur prosoutatlon at the same timo. In fact early In the day Chairman Springer did sny that the minority of the commit too had no rliht to demand so mucli consideration or to bo given any opportunity to delay the report of Iho bills to the house , Later , however , Mr. Springer was persuaded Hint It would bo wiser to extend the usual courtesy to the minority. Sjr.ntor Merrill , the veteran tariff oxuort of the upper branch of congress and chair man of the pen n to finance commlttoo , expressed < pressed tbo opinion today that no tariff bill A would pass the senate. Ho thought the free binding twine bill might have been danger ouslv likely to roach the president had i practical uxporlonco In Nebraska shown that the McKlnloy bill cheapened binding twlnu to tbo farmer.

I simply want to put i stop to this practice of udvortUing luiuU foi ialo In remote parts of liebraika , for In stunco.

Mr. Hamilton HUH 111 * Innings , Mr. Hamilton , superintendent of buildings for the Board of Education , says that the committee appointed by the Board ot Educa tion will find paper under the floors of the Kollom school , but If ho had not Interfered In the work done by Mr. David I , Huyden the job would nava boon a very poor ono. Hu says ho happened to bo in the now building one day when Hayden , who wns a subcontractor tractor , and his mon wcro putting down the floor. Ho noticed that thorn was no paper under the boards thov were putting down and asked Hnydoii how it happened , llavdou said thut it wus simply a mlstaito nnd only a couple of boards hud baon put down with no paper under them. Mr. Hamilton says bo had Hayden tear up these two boards and still no paper was un covered. They continued to rip up the floor and nearly a dozen boards had boon torn up before fore the paper was reached. Mr. Hoyden now has. a bill for 14 before tbo board for tear * iu ) ; up and roiayingtbat section of flooring. Superintendent Hamilton state * that Hay. don has uo just claim against tbo board on that seoro because bo knew that the specifications called for paper under the floors , and ho had no right to lay the floor without it , uo mattar what the instructions ot tbe original con tractor might have been. Speaking further upon the paper question Mr. Hamilton said that Cady & Gray had In. formed him tbat they had delivered a.X'S pounds ot paper at the Kollom school. "There uru about " 'M squares ot floor sur face la the ICollom building , " said the super intendent , "and it requires about fourteen pounds of paper to thu iquaro.

The city council took another turn at the Union Pacitlc Knlhvny compnny last ntKlit. No portion of the railway compnny was pres ent to witness the twisting process , Mr. Blsasscr was the first man to plnco violent hands upon the corporation , nnd as ho stood up to Introutioo an ordinance ho stnlod that ho wns not talking through his lint. Ills object wa * simply for the .purpose of Riving the people some benellts to repay thorn for the inconveniences thai they had exporloncoJ. The ordinance provided for the erection of two viaducts over the Union I'aclflo and the IHirllnpton trucks , ono to bo built nloni ; the line of Flftcontfi nnd the otljcr along the line of Sixteenth street. The ordinance declares ghat the building of the viaducts Is neces sary for the safety and protection of the public. They shall ho eighty foot wldo with a roadway sixty fet wldo und ton feet on each sldo of the roadways shall ho used as walks for footmen. Tno Sixteenth street viaduct shall have the sumo terminal points /is the present structure , but for the purpose of determining the height , length and general character of the viaduct nnd approaches , the material to bo used nnd tno exact locution , the city engineer is hcrobv orJorod and directed to niaka all necessary surveys for such purposes and to submit to tno Hoard of I'uullo Works unit ' .ho mayor such plans , drawings and details , together with such specifications as may bo necessary for sueh uurposo. Tno ordlnanco providing for the construc tion of the Fifteenth street viaduct contains tno sntno conditions nnd both provide ttiut the expenses incurred by their construction shall bo homo by the two railroad coin- panics. The ordlnanco went to the committee on viaducts nnd rallwu/s. As soon as Mr. Elsasser sat down , Mr. Monroe introduced this resolution , which was adopted : Kesolvod , That the city attorney Is hereby ru < | iinsted to draw an imlliiiincu providing fur the construction of un Iron and strol vlniluct In llio place of the wooden ono at iirrai'nt on Kl.xti'untli struct over the Union Pacific und Ilurllncton trucks.

AVIint I ) l.nliorurH C.ct ? The salary ordlnpnco carne up with an amendment to allow laborers $3 per day and men with teams J3.no per day , Mr. ChntToo said that ho favored allowing the laborers $1.7.1 per day. Tnoro were 1,000 man In the city who would Jump at the chance of getting $1.75 for an eight-hour day. The poor men who owned little homes were the men who were paying the bulk of the taxes in proportion to what they owned. Mr. Uonxvay did not bcliovo in cutting the laborers to f 1.7S from $ 'J per day. Mr. Monroe was In favor of reform , but ho said that ho would not vote to cut the salaries of the laboring men. If other cor porations wanted to crinrt down the laboring classes they could do so , but the city of Omaha could not afford to sot an example. Mr. St < 'ol stated that under the old rule thcro were a lot of pensioners hanging around the strcot commissioner's ofllco. Mr. Lowry nroso to a question of privilege. The remark was an Insult to all of the old members of the council. Mr. Prince did not think that the city de manded retrenchment by taking the broad out of the mouths of the laboring men. Mr. Stool replied tnat the men worked on the streets but eight hours per day , nnd that for the tlmo they worked 51.73 per day was good wages. Mr. Cnaffoo know that It was popular to vote for $3 per day , but ho did not propose to vote for popularity. Mr. Specht spoke In favor of 12 a day. Men at $2 per day could not earn nioro than $40 per month , as they could not average moro than twenty days per month during the working season. Mr. Lowry declared that ho would not gc back on the laboring men. Mr. Brunor bolloved the laborers should have at least t'J per day. Men who worked upon the streets were poor mon and If they were too poorly paia their children would have to bo taken from the public schools. They would bo ground Into the earth to sucli an extent that It would bo Impossible to be lion031. Ho thought if thera was to bo a cut it should bo In tbo ofllcos. There the mon were paid fancy prices and did not have tc put in as long hours as the mon upon the streets. THO Slilfs to till ) Qiiotttlon. Mr. Edwards thought there were two sides to the question. It was of more benefit to tin laboring men to reduce the salary of the few who would bo em ployed by the street com missioner than to hold wages up at $2 porday , To allow thorn 81.75 per day would glvo more men employment , and employment was whnl the laborers wanted. Mr. Stcol thought to ho a good Joput ] placed the man In the professional line whore good salaries were puld. Mr. Klsasser bud scon men employed b.i the street commissioner. They never won able to work morn than twenty datrs during the month and oven at $2 per day then was nothing moro than a bare living in work Ing upon the streets. Mr. McLoario took the stand that lauoi was worth its market valuo. Men In othoi lines of employment worked for loss than $ . ' per day ana there was no reason why the city should pay moro than the market value .for any commodity. Mr. Berhol Insisted that the reform wo ; started at the wrong end. The clerks in tin employment of the city were paid from 15 tc 25 per cout moie than in ether ofllcus In tlu oily. oily.Mr. . Prlaco said that private ofllco clerk : were an roof their positions for years , while with the city they were usually thrown out after the expiration of two years.

On my way to the capital of Mexico I stopped off along the route and often took in branch roads , vUjtlng such places In , Texas and the republic as I desired. I hero took particular pains to find out about Garza and his so- called rebellion. I can assure you It is the gi on test fake I have heard of. On and along the border in Texas and Mexico it is trcatod as a grand cad and is never mentioned unless in commenting on the fabrications published In northern papers. I have boon in the places where Gnrzu has lived und talked with candid and unbiased Americans and Mexicans who know Car/.a personally and were conversant with his lifo and history from childhood. Garza was born on a small ranch In Mexico near Matamoras , where his mother now re- sides. Ho attended public school in Mata moras , entered a grocery store as clerk nt the ngo of Ifi , coming to" Brownsville , Tex.when 20. Ho clerked in a .storo tbero for several years , whonho , wont Into business for himself - self which ho continued for some two years , during which time ho married an excellent ycung lady. Ho then went into the sowing machine business as agent and moved to Corpus Christ ! , Tex. , got into n difficulty about money matters with his employes and quit. Ho was next heard of as editor of a newspaper. llo left bis wife and ono child at Corpus Christ ! and some two years ngo obtained a dlv'orco nnd married another woman residing In Duval county , Texas , whoso father is reputed rich. llo moved his paper to Duval county and com menced bitter denunciations and attacks upon the Mexican government , and espe cially upon the Mexican governors of Leon and Coahuila. He especially espoused the causa of the Moxicnn residents north of the Rio Grande and did all In his power to preju dice the Mexicans against the Americans and to create discord and animosity. The course ho pursued gave him great Influence with the Mexican residents of Texas. In thu fall ol 18SU , no turned up in Star county , Texas , as sisting in fomenting trouble thoro. His bit ter attacks on nil who did not coincide with him and endorse his course brought on an encounter with an Inspector of customs whom ho had outrageously abused and vlll- Hod in his papor. Uurza was shot , and for a considerable time it was doubtful whether he would recover. This quieted him down until a few months ago. Then commenced tbo troubles on the border , wbicb have boon magnified into a rebellion , Uurza has no property , money or friends ol any character or influence to baok him. I am told a lot of Mexican horse and cattle tbloves , criminals , cutthroats and despera does , smugglers and refugees from Mexico who have fled across the border to the United States art ? nls congenial spirits on tlu American Ride and to the extant of n few hun dred rallied around Garza for a short time , but dissolved Into their own original ele ments , and fled as soon as the Mexican and American soldiers got after thorn , and U IE thought the fiasco | s at nn end.

REASONS FOR THE ROADS' REFUSAL srilt of All tlic l.lnrs lntrrr trd Ku < t anil \Vril Siitil tit lie Ncrci nr.v to Spell nn Amtiigrmrnt Lincoln LINCOLN , Nob. , Fob. 15 ( Special to TUB HUE.I It Is n generally accepted fact horu In Lincoln that thu Omaha grain merchants are doomed to disappointment In their efforts to secure milllng.ln.trnnslt rates. The efforts ol tlio State Board ot Transportation to secure - cure the desired concussions have boon en tirely fruitless , at least so fur ns the results already apparent are concerned , Tlio tlrst request of the bo.ird preferred last November was hardly an swered by the railroad mutineers. A second request made curly In the present tnont.li has been moro successful In eliciting replies , out for nil the concessions that have been made the gentlemanly managers mictit ns well Imvo saved their postage. A loiter was received today from Gonornl Mn.ingcr Burtof the Fremont. Klknorn & Missouri Valley railroad , but It nave the members of tlio board no more satlsfaotion Ihun tbo ro- piles that Imvo heretofore ueen received from other managers. In his letter Manager Butt says ! "As the question of establishing 'stoppage' privileges nt the MIs ouri river on Interstate grain shipments Is one whluh largely concerns - corns llio lines east uf the Missouri river , your letter of November J4 was referred to these lilies for consideration and such sug gestions ns they might deem proper to mnUo. 1 nm informed'that nn Omaha committee hurl UK the matter in charge had a confcronco with these lines in recant to It but 1 urn not advised as to ivlmt conclusion , If any , was reached thereat. However desirable or nec essary such arrangement may appear lobe In the interests or the Nebraska dealers or pro ducers , it must bo clearly apparent to the board that tlio Nebraska railroads of them selves have not thu power to bring It about and that it can only bo accomplished by the consent and co-operation ol all the lines Interested terostod , east us well us west of the river. The question of interfering with the con tinuous transit of interstate grain shipments is a moro serious ono than on the surface it would appear to bo. From our standpoint It seems to bo surrounded vitli serious diffi culties , and from whatever standpoint it maybe bo viewed It appears to bo ut sufficient im portance at least to demand the most careful consideration and mature- deliberation on the part , of vour honorable body. " Itcprcsoiitutlvo ( iiilii Tallin. Kopresci.tntlvo Gale of Kock county wasnt the state houss today , having remained ever from the demonstration of yesterday. To n Bii : : representative he talked quite freely of the political situation as it bus been nfTectcd by tbo reinstatement of Governor Boyd. Ho said bo believed n combination hud been ef fected between the loaders of the democratic and independent parties , but was positive that the rank and lllo of the independent , party of the state would repudiate the bar gain. "The radical loaders of the independ ent party , " said ho , "are desperate. They must do something or 'orover lose their pres tige among the people. They have deter mined upon n combination witti the demo cratic party , but it won't work. The masses uf the independent voters will not bo led Into the democratic party by any sucb arrange ment. * ' Heforring to nn extra session bo said : "I believe thcro will be an extra session of the legislature. The independents will bo split into two factions over the railroad uuostfon , Some of the members those who honestly represent tlio rank and llle of the party will bo willing to uuree to u railroad bill that will bo fair and uqultablo to all interests ot Iho state. The radicals who are bent on a rule or ruin policy will insist upon the Nowborry bill , which can never bo passed. " Hoprnsontutivo Gale did not hesitate to express - press his conviction that tbo Independent strength is waning in Nebraska. Cosslp at the Stutu House. Attorneys Webster and Estabrook were today iiotitiod by Attorney General Hastings that the question of tip Jurisdiction of the Nebraska supreme court in tbo matter of ap pointing receivers for banks under the bank ing act of 1SST would bo nrguod before the supreme court next Tuoaday.
