WASHINGTON , D. 0. , March 4. The
house passed the bill establishing a
term of United Statoa coiirt at
Wichita , Kansas , and extending the
district of the United States court
oyor parts of Indian territory. The
bill provides that portion of said ter
ritory west of the civilized tribes and
north of the Canadian river and now
in proximity to a railway and accessi
ble to the courts at Wichita and Fort
Scott , is attached to that jurisdiction ;
that portion west of the civilized tribes
and south of the Canadian river contingent
tingont to Texas , to the jurisdiction
of the court at Graham , Texas.
The bill authorizing the directors
of the mints to exchange standard
dollars for trade dollars was called
up and unanimous consent asked for
its passage , but under objection by
Mr. Randall it was passed over.
The house took up again the con
sular ahd diplomatic bill , and Mr.
Hiscock spoke briefly in reply to Mr.
Hewitt's speech last Thursday , saying
credit should bo given Mr. llcbinson
( N. F. ) in regard to the act of 1868.
Mr. Cox ( N. Y. ) spoke briefly , say
ing this act was duo to the- support
of both parties. The record of the
democratic party , however , had over
been that of the kindest relations to
naturalized citizens.
Mr. Rdbeson ( N. J. ) said ) thorp had
been a good deal said in the discus
sion of this bill abut the relations of
the political parties of this country
toward foreigners , and proceeded to
argue that the history of the 'repub
lican party showed it had been the
friend of' foreign-born citizens. Ho
referred t'j the treaty of Ghent as
the creation * of men whoso principles
decided the republican party , men
tioning among them the iiamo of
John Quincy Adams.
To this Mr. McLean replied Adams
was a democrat.
Jtfr. Jtobcjan replied thnt at least'
ho did not represent modern democra
cy. There is a difference between
democracy as it once existed and de
mocracy of to-day. Grant was a
democrat , but fought theu > rinciples
of modern nomocracy upon fields
made glorious with the blood of mil
lions. Regarding the question of
American citizens imprisoned abroad
he said it was the duty of this country
to see that speedy trial is granted
them , and he believed it would bo
done.
done.Mr.
Mr. Cox in reply asked the gentle
man who had ao kindly referred to
Grant and who was a member of his
cabinet , if he would favor us with
some extracts from his message upon
the question of expatriation.
To this Mr. Robeson replied that ho
could not.
Mr. Cox , requesting permission to
nsk Mr. Robeson a question , asked if
Mr. Hoar's bill , the predecessor of
the Bancroft treaty , which wronged
our Gorman citizens , came frovn Grant
and if the , Bancroft treaty , which
caused the naturalized German citi
zens of this country returning to Ger
many to lese their American citizen
ship after two years in that country
unless reporting to certain oflijials for
permission to further remain , was ap
proved by that administration ,
Mr. Robeson replied that the author
of the Bancroft treaty was a domociat
and had always been.
Mr. Hazleton ( Wis. ) , who sat near
Mr. Roboson , also volunteered a
rather vociferous reply to Mr. Cox , to
which Mr. Cox replied that ho was ad
dressing Mr. Robeson and it was not
courteous that Hazleton should inter
rupt in this manner.
Mr. Hazolton replied Mr. Cox was
iiimsolf interrupting.
Mr , Cox responded , it was only by
the consent of the gentleman to whom
lie had put a question ( Roboson ) that
he had interrupted. Ho had a right
to his interruption ,
Mr. Roboson , continuing , said the
cause of oppressed American citizens
in British prisons had lost much by
the inconsistency of the loaders who
had championed it. There had been
too much of sentiment and gush and
too little of dealing with facts. A
real statesman deals with facts as he
finds them. Foreign born citizens
and tlw interests of labor generally
must look for protection to the party
which has indicated its sympathy with
labor and with the laboring man and
not to the party which had for many
years held laborers in chains and de
graded labor by associating it with
slayery.
Mr. Cox replied that Mr. Robeson
does not dare defend this legislation
which camp from his party the Ban
croft treaty and all its injustices , by
which the rights of American citizens
were withdrawn in this unjust manner -
nor , So far as the opinion of the for
eign element regarding that party and
the gentlemen , who had just spoken
in regard to its relation to them , is
concerned , a lesolution of the land
league which recently denounced him ,
reply. This is an old subject over
again , .the federal deviltry of the time
of John Adams and alien laws. The
man who embraces the democratic
party as other than as a friend to the
Foreign population of the country ,
falsifies history and will bo convictut
of it by the people.
The entire afternoon was spent on
the bill , and U was finally reported to
t > > o house without material ohango.
Mr. Springer ( III. ) offered an amend
ment , reducing the number of foreign
representatives of the government anc
enlarging the field of these remaining
accordingly , but it was voted down.
The report of the ootnmittoo 01
elections , dismissing the caseof _ Smitl
against Robertson , Sixth district o
Louisiana , was passed.
The house adjourned at 8:15.

THE BADS RlllI * RAILWAY.
WASHINGTON , March G. The senate -
ate commerce committee devoted five
hours yesterday to the consideration
of the Eads ship railway project anc
instructed Senator Yost to report the
bill with Bomp amendments to the
senate. The bill gives the guarantee
of the United States for C per cent ,
dividends of $50,000,000 of the $75-
000,000 stock of the company , the
guarantee , to attach as the work pro
gresses , and $5,000,000 when a vessel
of 4,000 tons is carried inward ton
miles and return from ono terminus
and $5,000,000 when the satno is done
at the other terminus. In default for
the nonpayment of interest the amount
paid as the government guarantee
is to bo good for the payment of tolls
aft or fifteen years. For the guarantee
thus given by the United States ,
mails and vessels are tOpass free , nnd
American merchant shins are to pay
but half the tolls paid by other na
tions except Mexico. There was no
dissent on the resolution for the bill
to bo reported to the sonata , but
some of the members of the committee -
too reserved the right to offer an
amendment to or dissent from certain
portions of the bill when it comes up
in the senate. This was mot eon ac
count of a desire for a more careful
examination than actual hostility.

CONKLINO.
The president's mail has as yet
brought no reply to his letter inform
ing ox-Senator Conkling of his con
firmation as associate justice of the
United States , and the president
stated to-night that ho had no thing'to
communicate 011 the subject Ho
had a long conference with Senator
Jona , of Nevada , to-day , after -which
the latter said ho ( the senator ) knew
no moro about it than the reporter
who had applied for information.
Still later this evening one of' ' the
president's household said if , President
Arthur has , received Mr. Oonklipgs |
declination , as reported , it did not
coma by mail. The last letter to the
president from Conkling was on
another subject two weeks ago. The
president said last week that when the
matter waa settled he should t lot
it bo known , and when ho
says there is nothing to bo said
it is generally looked upon as fair to
think that Conkling intends to wait
until ho receives his commission signed
in duo form before making any sign
It is rumored bore to-night that the
correspondence between the president
and Conkling has been carried on by
private messenger , and that the final
result will known officially to-morrow.

KANSAS Crrt | March 5. A sensation
tion has boon created hero among po
lice and county officials by the fac
that George Snenpord , ox-guerilla ant
bank robber , Kho claimed to have
shot Jesse Jnmos. the notorious ont
law , at Joplinj Mo. , just after the
Glondaio train robbery of 1879 , luu
proved a traitor through all that trou
ble. Shoppcrd know the James
Brothers well ; nnd offered t <
go among them and lotu
them into ambush , whore they
were to bo killed or captured. Iji *
offer was accepted , and for sovora
weeks ho wrote loiters to the detec
tives , and at last n special train over
the Fort Scott .rail way carried n posse
of mon to Galena , Mo. , whore R bank
was to bo robbed. The day previous
to the talked of robbery Shopporcl
came tearing into Galena on horseback -
back , claiming to have killed Jesse
James , saying the tang became sus
picious of him. ' Ho vra himself shot
clear through the loft leg below the
knee , and said two .members of the
band followed him n mile ; Cummings
hit hit him. The report wai believed ,
and every paper in the country
sounded Shopptrd'a praise But it
has become public that all the time
Shopperd was standing in with the
robbers , aud thKt a Bcliome was en
tered into whorcby the olllcors were
to bo made to think that JCBBO was
killed , and thervtho lareo reward for
his body dead or alive could bo
obtained by Shopperd anddividod with
Jesse. In ordov to square himself with
the officers , Shoppord had to bo slight
ly woundoo and.no deliberately hold
out his leg nndallowed Jesse James
to shoot A ball tnroiigh it. The plan
to got the reward failed and Shepperd ,
who has boon hinging about Kansas
City over since the reported shooting ,
has admitted the . 'wholo thing was a
put up job and shys ho would no more
shoot Jesse Jamon-than ho would his
brother.

WASHINGTON , March 5 Col. Cork-

bo impatient if the counsel for this
government took n reasonable time to
examine it. They ought to agree upon
a bill between themselves , as questions
might arise which would require

some days will elapse before there is
an'argument as to the bill of excep
tions.
