LINCOLN , February 20 The house met at
0:30 : tkls morning , nnd nftcr.half on hour had
baon spent in preliminaries , went into com-
mtttco of the whulo , with Mr. Leo of Merrlck ,
in the chair , to consider the general appropri
ation bill. And then half an hour was spout
in discursing points of order , _ during which
tlmo much confusion prevailed. Nobody
ncsmed to know how things stood or whore
tha committee had to begin on the
bill they left unfinished yesterday afternoon.
It wa.s eventually decided that the ntnto of
affairs wn ) something like thin. Mr. Holt
had moved to amend the bill as follows : That
no moneys accruing from sale or loasa of agri
cultural college lunds aha 1 bo appropriated.
Mr. Holmes had moved an amendment that
the following appropriation for the university
bo made : Academic salaries , SI1OOJ ; inci
dentals S3.00J ; fuel and gas , S3OjO : perma
nent improvements , setting up chemical lab-
ratory , SlO.OOd ; library , ? 5,010 , ; horticultural
dopartmpnt , $5,000 ; tt nm hoitlng. $10,000 ;
repairs , 35,000 ; deficiency In stocking farm ,
50.000.
When It was understood that the above was
thn exact position nnd that these wcro the
only motions before Uio committee , Mr.
Thomas of Casg , took the floor , no thought it
extraordinary the 1)39 ) students nt Peru only

Ho Biid ho was ODD of tha finance committee
nnd they found it most difficult to get any
orttim.-Uos from the university ofliclaUi other
than they had worked bird for three weeks
trying to do so. When Homo slight informa
tion WAS given It was because they could not
kcoplt backnny longer. Ho said nowspiptn had
attacked him nnd the finance committee nud
charged them with making n trade of the
treasury , but seeing Mr. Gero in front of him
Mr. Thomas said "p.vpcrs ouUIda tha city "
Ho said the university authorities didn't
want to nppaar bo tore the committee , but
thought they would cet moro if they came
nnd lobbied in the house when the bill was in
committee. Ho had omitnred into the work
ings nnd management of tbo university nml
hou found that no three separate accounts had
been kept according to law , nnd that the ac
counts generally were kept in n very
slipshod and unbtisiness like manner
Ho was satisfied that there was something
wrong somewhere , when the university hov-
ng kept quiet upto now , hnn last night thrust
his sunn judgment upon the hous3.
Mr. King supported a liberal appropriation
and said Mr Hull's amendment would bo con
trary to organic law.
Mr. Butler said the university should have
presented Us estimate long ago. Ho thought
their action very mysterious. Ho was against
the medical school provision.
Questions as to how things stood nnd would
Htard if the motion of Mr. Holmes were
adopted , ciuacd him to withdraw it for the
prosout.
The question now was on the resolution of
Mr. Holt. Several did not eoi this andr > noke
for some tlmu on Mr. Holmes' motion. Very
considerable time was wasted in this wny.
Mr. Troup now moved as on amendment to
Mr. Holt's motion , that not more than § 15-
009 bo provided , and some of that sum to go
to the medical college. This was accepted by
Mr. Holt , nnd the amendment as proposedtby
him. carried ,
Mr. Holmes now brought up his motion
again , with the exception that the $10.000 for
tto medical school was stricken out. The
whole profoasioualstair and nil the students of
the university were on the floor
Loonvixa AND INSTKCCTINO JIEMBEM.
The gallery was full of their friends and
when ttio appropriation was made applauded
ns If in a theatre. Mr. Stevenson next spoke
nnd in an able manner showid up the under
hand dealings of the university. lie siidpro-
fefieora wcro no better tbau other lobyi&ts.
The students were the name , and tb.it if they
could put out nothing tuparior than this in n
university the sooner it was abaliohod the bet
ter. Mr. Henry said the university made its
estimate in a lump that people infant not see
how it vv.ts disposed of. They wanted to steal
a march on thn huuso Ho moved tha innort
of the financial committee bo adopted , which
was eventually loit by 40 to 4L votci.
Mr Holmes' omcndmont was then put and
carried. The commuteu rose and the hotuo
took n rccesd until 2:30. :

But now it is Javt-lopad that the hmiso mein-

This fabulous charge urn of onureo rightly re

It was no o. It ia a question whether the
Douglas county constituents , with the excep

thia effort to abolish a good law. Legislators

In a former letter mention was made of B

Special Correspondence to THE BKE ,
LiNCOLy , February 22. Ono of the most
important piecs of legislation to the tax
payers of Nebraska was tbo passage on yew-
trday of the general state appropriation bill ,
that which provides for the payment of the
expenses of tha state for the next two years
As wai to ba exported the economist s , headed
.by Miller , made ssveial objections to the passage -
ago of Ilia bill , but succeeded in doing nothing
towards reducing the expenditure.
The two items of which there was the lonpr *
est discussion was tbo state university and
penitentiary appropriations , The first of
these brought the whole professional stall
and their students into the 1 ibby and on the
floor of the IIIUBO. They worked assiduously
for their crime and stood around tbo Lancas
ter delegation prompting and instructing
them in theinanner they should fight.

even a moro disreputable clns.i , ia not very
edifying to say tbe least of it. If legislators
by their action compel this ntato of things the
oirlier it is rcmidied the better ,
The present htate of things only tends to
bring into disrepute the principals
of which Is Buppoved to bo
the chief educational establishment In th

learn by the experience of the priscnt session
to have thtir estiuatcs prepared and itemized

guarding against nil insinuations of underhand
work which have prevailed during the discus-
si ( > i > on tbu university voio.
As vvna to have boon expected the hunatt
haa repealed on second reading the raihoad
bill of tbo bouse which passed thU week.
It requires no very gioat foresight to have
fornrold thic.
Thu ptuilo was that any member of the
houaa thould have thought for n moment tha' '
the senate vvou'd pisa n railroad regulatioi

with railroad legislation , it Is conceded on nl
nidi's that nothing muni will ba done.

LINCOLN , February 22. A prominent stock
man of this city , in a recent interview , eayt
the repotted loss of cattle on the ranges In thi
west U exaggerated. He says the loss 1
great , but will not average higher than in
other yean. He has received letters from
Hevral eattle men , who say they have vliitert
their ranchru and found the cattle in much
better condition than waa anticipated from
the seveie cold and heavy enowi. About.
Dodge City , Kan. , there has been great loss ,
owing to the fact that many Texts cattle were
driven in there in the fall and were not used
to cold weather.

ALIIANY , N. Y. , February 22. A storm is
gntheilng about Manning' head vvhich
promircs to make his appointment to a cabi
net pontlon a great source of embarrassment
for Glovol.ind's administration from the statt.
Not nlono is the management of the Albany
penitentiary now under investigation , but the
inquiry into the stnto printirg which Mann
ing has controlled since Tweed first became n
power , has iilso been instituted by a commit
tee of the independent citizens' association ,
and in both cases , it is said , sensational de
velopments affecting Manning m&y Lo ex
pected. The committee has been working in
secret and their leportu nil ! not bo forthcom
ing for some d j8 , but enough hai leaked out
to explain Manning's evident reluctance to
admit of hi.s intention of going into the
cabinet. It is soid the investigation of the
printing contracts will establish Manning's
connection vvitutho Tweed ring , and the
penitentiary investigation will connect him
with alleged irregularities of the superin
tendent.
