LEGISLATIVE LACONICS.
The senate has been doing busi
ness with twentv-one employes in
excess of the statutory limit, and
as a compromise tne auauor ubt
Fridav issued warrants in full of
mi
claims to that date. At the same
time he informed the lieutenant
governor that the whole list would
be denied thereafter unless the par
ing down process was inaugurated
and the oav roll cut to the legal
limit. A looomg-olt committee is
l V9
getting in its deadly work and there
will be grief when the employes file
in to receive the sentence.
In committee of the whole, senate

The lower house of the state

He fired a th.rd shot at Jim French, but

CHICAGO, Feb. 7. Judge Grosscup
appearen determined today to find out
whetheGeorge M. Pullman evaded the
service1 et. the -subpoena issued for him
by the .defense in the Dob3 conspiracy
case. ,AKtne opening of tho court Will
iam B. Johnson, the colored doorkeeper
of. Mr. Pnllman's private office, was
called bafore the judgo and said that he
saw Mr. Pnllinan enter his office on Mon
day morning at 10:30, an hour after
Deputy Jones ' called. The doorkeeper
asked for his namo and business. Jones
wrote his nSsriQ and official title on a
card, which Johnson said he gave to
C. S. Sweet, Mr. Pullman's private sec
retary. The secretary entered the inner
office, and returning said Mr. Pullman
was not in. Johnson said he did not
see Mr. Pnllman come out of his office,
nor did he know if Pullman was there
at the time the card was sout in. Judge
Grosscup asked for Mr. Sweet, and was
informed by the counsel for the defense
that Sweet had disappeared also.
"Never inind, then," said the judge.
"We will.postpone tho iuquirv until Mr.
sweet is found and brought before the
court."
After the Pullman matter had been
continued Jennie Curtis, an ex-Pullman
employe, took the stand and told of the
poverty of many of the Pullman com
pany's employes previous to the strike.
Debs w&3 then called for cross-examina-
bitration of the president of the United
States and stated at length the exact
measures to be determined by the arbitrator.
The substance of the president's de
cision is contained in the following par
agraph: "That the boundary line be
tween the Argentine Republic and tho
United States of Brazil in that part sub
mitted to me for arbitration and de
cision, is constituted aud shall be es
tablished by and upon the rivers Pepiri
(also called Pepiri-Guazu) aud S.ia Au-
tontio, to wit: The rivers which Brazil
had designated in the argument and
documents submitted to me as consti
tuting the boundary, and herein before
denominated the wosterly system."
The territory involved covers an area
of 31,000 square miles and has a popula
tion of about 7,000 inhabitants. The
situation of the disputed territory is of
no little interest, not only from a politi- ;
cal.'but from a military standpoint. Its
loss to Brazil would almost have cut off
the rich and populous Brazilian state of i
Rio Grande do Sul from the remainder
of the republic, leaving only a narrow
tongue of laud something loss than 50
leagues wide as a means of connection.
Thus the territory of Missiones, if held
by a foreign power, would be a contin
ual menace to the peace and progre.53 of
Rio Grande do Sul.

The democrats used to - say that
the establishment of tin plate works
in our country were a foolish
undertaking, that they could exist
only through a high protective duty
and would double the price of tin
in this country. Through the Wil
son tariff they hoped to ruin our
American tin works, and restore
the tin works of Wales, and onr de
pendence on importations from that
county. And in England they had
the same hopes. But the results
has disappointed bur democratic
patriots as well as their patriotic
English friends. Our tin works
have in the short time of their exis
tence gained such strength, that
they can stand the competition of
the Wales works, all the Wilson
tariff not withstanding. Our Con-
a discount, even with them bearing
seven per cent. Whether or not
they can always be disposed of at
par appears to be a question de
pending more or less upon tempor
ary conditions. At the present
time they are bringing two percent
premium on all sums exceeding
forty dollars.

charges came np in the house Tues
