Lincoln dispatch: With the advance
of the maximum rate cases in the su
preme court of the ('nlted Mates for a
hearing early neat spring the attorney
general hoped also to have the ease
which is popularly known as the Kim
1 wood elevator case also advanced and
decided
While the principle involved In the
maaitnitm raic cases la conceded to be
of the first importance, that involved
in the elevator case is scarcely less Im
portant, This, if the contention of the
railroad company is upheld by the
courts, will give U1 railroad companies
the power to control a monopoly of tin
grain trade on their lines and farm It
oul to favorites or use it for the pur
pose of swelling the revenue of the
company.
The caae originated from the Mis
souri I’utdfic declining to grant to an
applicant privileges necessary loanable
him to put up and operate an elevator
at the station of Kim wood. The ground
on which the application was restated
by the compuny was mat tin-re wn*.

in the hill.
Mr. Parker, Kept) Id lean, of New

Mr. i aitnoll, Republican, of Illinois,
in support of the uieuMire, declared
that It was a hill to maintain specie
payments, which ha<i been resumed
under tin- wise direction of the Repub
lican party in i873. For the 13 year*
following the resumption the revenues
had always exceeded the expenditure*.
Twelve hundred million dollarsof the
interest paying debt hud been dis
charged .since Mr Cleveland'* elec

ness und punic hud followed. Instead
of paying Ido million* a year on the
public debt the Democrats hud bor
rowed 103 million*. They could tear
down and criticise, but they could not
build up the reserve. (Republican
applause,)
"We will not abridge the power of
the (Secretary of the Treasury,'’ he
continued. "We will give him more
power. fie cannot have too much
power if it Is used wisely. You, on
the other side, will vote against this
bill— those in favor of silver at 10 to 1
—because you want to impair the
credit of the couutry und force us to a
silver basis; those who support tiie ad
ministration, because it wants gold

Irish Manufacturers Alarmed.
London, Dec. j0. — Although the
general opinion is expressed In the
cable dispatches from the United
Miates that the tariff revision bill la
not likely to pass the Senate, the
measure has caused quite a flutter in
commercial circles. An Irish indus
trial organ points out that the pro
posed Increase in the duty on woolens
will inevrltubly cheek a growing
trade, and tiiat Irish industries will
suffer in consequence. Owing to the
greut Interest excited in Irish goods
by the exhibits made at the world's
fair, large orders have been placed
with the mills and hand loom weavers
In remote districts of Donegal. All
this development would be stifled by
the adoption of the turiff revision bill.

siderable feeling und indignation over
the matter is expressed ami trouble
may yet occur. A stormy meeting of
the board was held last night. The
colored people declare that they will

court.

wit held between Speaker Heed and

result was un agreement for a vote on
the bond hill ill '\ o'clock to morrow,
Instead of 9 o'clock lo-day
( A further arrangement was made ;
that the waya uml inruns committee,

a clause showing (hut it is not the
purpose to retire the green bucks. It
I wun also ai runged that there shall he
separate vole, -one on the proposition
I for a #90,000,i)0b bond Issue and uii
! other on the unlimited issue. The
conference was sal isfactory to ail eie
merit, and the concessions mu le over
came the protests against huste, which
led Inst Might to the appointment of a
committee of Republican mem hers to
wait on Hpcuker Reed
'I lie ways and means committee
adopted the amendment to the bond
bill suggested by Mr. Hopkins of
Illinois to prevent the accumulation in
the Treasury of the greenbacks und
their practical retirement without can
cellation. The amendment provides
that nothing in the act shall be con
strued to repeal or modify the act of
JH7M for the reissue of the greenbacks
when redeemed.
\ Another amendment was adopted
milking the bonds issued under the
act puvublc within fifteen years. The
second amendment was suggested by
Mr. I.ucev of Iowa und met the up
fruvul of the Republican members.
u the origlnul draft of the hill it was
provided that the bonds should he re
deemable at the pleasure of the gov
urn iiiisttf n flue linn tfnii as t . i.. i iu.ia
dale. It wui thought best to make a
| definite termination of them. The
amendments were adopted by a strict
party vote ami the bill will he report
ed to the house as amended,
| Mr. Tarsney of Missouri offered an
amendment to repeal the act of 1*7*
for reissuing the greenbacks, hut failed
to get any support for it.
The amendment agreed to by the
ways ami means committee providing
tliut the greenbackssiiouid he reissued
is considered a great concussion to dis
satisfied ones.

leries again to-day. As soon us tiie
Journal bail been approved, Mr. Ding
ey. chairman of tiie ways and means
committee, reported tiie bond bill us
amended by the ways and means com
mittee to-duy, and ft wns referred to
the committee of the whole on the
state of the Union.
Mr. Daniel, Kcpublican, of New
York, chairman of the first committee
on elections rose to a question of priv
ilege and made a unanimous report in
favor of seating Hugh II. liulkimp in
place of l.awreticc K Medium from
the Third Illinois district. Mr. Me*
Dunn had decided lie was not entitled
to u seat und there wus. therefore, no
contest over the matter. The report
was adoptud ami Mr. Helknup was
•worn in.
Mr. Henderson of Iowa, from the
committee ori rules, presented the rule
for the consideration of the bond hill,
Mr. Crisp opposed the adoption of
the rule. Yesterday, said he, a gen
eral turiff bill, the exact effect of
which on particular industries, and on
tiie revenues no one knew, iiad been
rushed through the House. To-day it
had been proposed to rusli through u
bond hill in the same suininary man
ner. hut tiie murmuringsuf discontent
on the Hepuhlieun side had forced the
sulocrut of the House und the so
called leaders to yield a little more
time. He admonished the other side
that it was only by resistance that
they could obtain their rights.
Mr. bailey, Democrat, of Texus,
•greed in u general way to the propo
sition that there could not be a great
abuse of the privilege of debate on
public questions and that the prime
factor was u vote; but, lie said, while
um-ichs ueuuie nnmiiu ue rei-uncico,
full and fair debate was essential.
Yesterday, with four hours' debate, a
bill which would burden the people
witli 940.000,000 of additioual taxes,
was ptiHcd. To-day the performance
was to lie repeated, hut this time pos
terity was to tie saddled witli an In
terest beariiitf debt of no one knew
how many millions. The country, he
•aid. would no mure tolerate precipi
tate haste Until it would undue delay.
Mr. McMillau, Democrat, of 'J'enues
Me. asked wiiy the Republican leaders
propo-ed to cut their associates off
without oppori unity to otfer amend
ments. Were those in authority afraid
of their associates? Would they not
tie trusted to do anything but vote?
When the twenty minutes allowed
the IteuiiM-rutic side had liern eon
turned, Mr. Ilemleraou. who was in
tharfro of the rule, without makiatf
toy reply to the criticisms from the
ytto-r side, demanded a vote on the
adoptiou of the rule, which waa taken
by yea* aud nays.

Washington, Deo. 2S—The Presi
dent and Secretary Carlisle hare de
termined upon an immediate issue of
bonds to be in the form of a popular
loan. It will make no difference
whether Russian gold is available or
not, as it will not be called for or ac
cepted. Congress will not be depend
ed upon, for President Cleveland is
satisfied that no bond legislation will
gel through that body In time to re
lieve the present urgent situation.
Tile issue will lie announced in a
very few days. Tho amount will be
Si00,000,000 for a period of thirty years
nt 4 per cent, hut the sale will be fixed
at such a premium ns will make the in
terest 3 per een» Hut, Tho denomina
tions will he small and the bonds w ill
be put upon the market in the United

made with the iiolmoot*Morgan syndi
cate, representing the Rothschilds,

the bids of general and private sources
in tills country have been received,
take the residue or surplusafc the same
rate of interest. Tills the syndicate

Washington, Dee. 28. -Chairman
Dlngley of tho ways and means coin
Tiittce lias received a private letter
from Secretary < arllsie which fur
bishes some information concerning
(lie condition of the treasury. Mr.
Dlngley will not make the letter pub
lic, Imt says tlie Secretary offers to
furnish the House with all data that
nay be needed. Tim condition of the
■reasury is represented as very scri
ms, uud Mr. Carlisle urges legislation
for a gold bond.
Mr. Dlngley has informed the Sec
'clary that a gold bond is out of the
question ami count not he conslde r< (I,
Secretary Carlisle did not say to Mr>
Dlngley that a. 2 per cent bond cannot
be floated and did not dlscii n this
feature of the ease. This latter denial
was made because reports to this
meet concerning tnc Secretary • letter
were In eiretilution.
President <Cleveland and tils advisers,
It Is learned, are strongly opposed to
the House bond bill, nmi this feeling
caused Secretary Carlisle to write to
Chairman Dingley. Aside from the
very Important objection that the
bonds are to be redeemed In coin. in
steud of gold, ms recommended by the
President, It Is understood that the
requirement that the bonds be sold by
subscription meets with disapproval.
OUTLAW BILL DOOLIN.
II* I* Tlreil of lining a Criminal and
Wants to Hurramlar on Conditions.
Pr.KItr, Ole I a.. Dec. 28 —Considerable
excitement was created here yesterday
when It was announced that Hill
Doolin, formerly leader of the noted
Dalton gang of outlaws, was in Perry
and that his mission here was to mo ke
peace with the officer* ami give him
self up, provided a sentence could be 1
agreed on. It is said that Doolin was
accompanied by Hill Carr, who is an
escapee from Oklahoma City. Carr
lias a big reward hanging over him,
an<l has skipped a $15,non bond. He is
charged with being an accessory to the
murder of Chief of Police .Jones, which
occurred some months ugo. Doolin, in
an interview, says he is tired of an
outlaw's life and wants to atone for all
his misdeeds by working it out in a
short term in the penitentiary.
Dooiiu was leader of the Dalton
gang for years, and is said to be one
of the most desperate men that ever
lived in Oklahoma. Ten months ago
he was shot through the leg by a dep
uty miirshal, and the wound came
near killing him. He lias made many
overtures of late to Oklahoma officers
for a compromise sentence for his
crimes, am) it is thought that it will
be effected soon.
