LINCOLN , Feb 19.-Spe ( Telegrnm.-
Colonel J. I Ager held one of his justly
celebrate senatorial caucuses tonIght nt time
Hotel Llnlel , In the senate this afternoon
% s'imenVatson's bill substituting time national ,
law for the state law requiring the equipment
of raIlroad cars wih automatic couplers was
UII for consideration , the trend or time debate
between 'Vnlon and Caldwell Indicated that
there was a sad lack of unity ot action and
purpose As the debate progressed It was
scout that the railroads wee likely to bo
knocked out In their efforts to practIcally
give the State Board ot Transportation power
to nulry the nct. After some difficulty '
Watson succeeded In havIng the bill laid aside
for future discussion Then It was that
Colonel Ager passe the word for a "con-
ference " The republican senators gathered
first In the rooms at H. D. Schneider but
afterward adjourned to nn upstairs room
Colonel Ager himself was present for 1 short
tme , but afterward withdrew. For halt nu
hour the conference progressed without any
head , and then ( Pope , regular chairman of
the republican caucus , took the chair and the
conference Iersed Into 1 caucus , After n
free-ror-nl discussion , It was generally agreed
that time provisions or time railroad b:1 : gIvIng
thE State Board ot Transportation power to
extend the ( lose for Its going Into effect should
b retaIned , and other provisions about which
thl railroads carD but little knocked out ,
There were also 1 few references to telegrnllb
and sleeping car legislaton ,
The dIscussion then drifted Into n general
talk In regard to party acton over time prop-
osiIon to take nil appointments out of thc"
hnnls at time governor and placing them In
the ( hands oC a beard , ot state omcrs , The
bill taking the alJpolntment ot the Omaha
Fire ant Polce Board away train the gov-
c/or ale came In for Incidental discussion.
I was felt advisable to cal 1 Joint house
and senate caucus , and a commitee consist-
hug at Senator Pope , Sloan Ind McKesson
was appointed ! to arrange the matter. The
JoInt caucus w1 bo held at nn early date ,

LINCOLN , I eb , l9-Special-Timo ( ) house
has passed the bill to provide for purchasllg
seed grain on tme and to create a len on
time crops grown from time same. The bill
was Introduced by Representative Judd at
Boone county by request On Its face It Is
1 bIll designed entrely for time beneft of
the destute farmers In the drouth stricken
distrIcts of the state , and It leems to meet
the exigencies of the present crisis In some
of the agricultural counties at time ltate , I
prescribes the Corm of u "special seed grain
note , " which glvUJ the man who sells the
see,1 , a len upon time crop oC graIn raised
theretrom , and It provides for severe imemmaitlea
for the violation of any part ot the nct.
It provides , for tnstance Ihat when time
"speclnl ee grain note" Is fed In the
proper coulty office II the county In which time
grain Is to be sown the owner at the
10te shall thereby be vested , wih all thE
l'lghts of the holder at a chattel mortgage
UpOI time CrOIJS grown trom such seed , nn,1
time fame shal bo n first hiatt upon such
crops , whether they are growing , matured or
galhered and stored
Time bill Is really more In the Interest
of the men who sell the seed grain. In
time first place I nowhere limits the rate of
Intere/t which may bo charged to the farmer
who 'purchases the seed , , In the Judgment
of mummy time law shoull &peclfcly : fix the
Interest rate. Saie favor a rate as low
IS 6 per cent. Oher claim that good seed
woull not b3 turnlbee nt so low a rate oC
Interest. These later urge lint the rate
should be fixed at 1 per cent wIth an Iron.
clad Ilrovlslon to the effect that I moro than
10 per cent bhll he either exacted or obtained ,
either directly or indirectly , the whole loan
shall h forfeite&
The passage or this bill by the house calls
out some Interestng information concerning
the methods of certain firms and Individuals
who are taking advantage of time present
distress In Nebraska to enrich themselv at
the expense of the tarmer For the purpose
