The special committee - mittee of the United States senate , investi gating tha subject of Inter-state commerce , continued their hearing to-day at the railroad commissioner' * office , i William II. Lincoln , by invitation , addressed the committee IIo did not think shippers could complain of the present ont rates. Which are lidicutously tow ; they were too low for the interest of railroad stock holders. The railroad business , he said , was the worst and most absurdly managed of any in the country. Ono would expect trends to lower their rates when the water route competition was felt but ho had known the roada to raise their rates fre quently at such season ] and lower the rates when business was more than cculd be handlecd. He thought n minimum rate should bo fixed by law. Fluctuating rates unsettled busimess greatly. Stability of rates was more important than the rate Itself , Mr , Lincoln believes that favoritism was shown by roods by giving knowledge of a change In rates to shippers. Ho thought a general law requiring at least ten days notice of a change of rates would be equitable. Ho believed in n na tional board of railway commissioners. He protested against the double tariff system of railroads. IIo believed In basing the tariff upon mileage. The pool system of the coun try Mr. Lincoln regarded aa a farce. In any legislation on the subject of rates carload should bo the unit , and no reduction should be made inrates for large quantities. E , 0. Kimble , n commission man , com plained that New England shippers hod tc pay an extra charge of 33J per cent , on shipments to Chicago for an additional dis tance of only GO miles 1,000 miles. Ex-Governor Claflin favored a national commission to regulate railway rates. The Presbyterian Assembly. CINCINNATI , O , May 20. At the session ol the Presbyterian assembly , a resolution sym < pathizing with Gen , Grant was unanimouslj adopted. The standing committee on home missions reported. The board ia S 110,000 in debt , although it has received in contributions more than ever before , The deficiency cornea from the decrease In legacies. The total re ceipts are 8499,000. The ministers supported wholly orj in part by the church , ,1,400 ; In the past year 200 now churches and 300 new Sunday schools have been organized ; 7.000 members have been received in the churches. Of seven overtures acted upon by the Presbyteries during the past year , all but one answered in tbo affirmative. The action on the latter gives the church the privilege of dropping the nair > e from its roll of mem bers who refuses it because of changed views , but who is not chargablo with any immoral conduct. Overtures pertaining to book dis cipline from the Presbyteries of Los Angeles , Washington City , West Chester nnd Hudson were answered In the negative. Dr. G. P. Hayes , of Colorado , opened the debate on ths regulation declaring that the Roman Catholic church had apostatized , and its baptism was therefore invalid. He said : "Tha plea ia made that the minimum of truth being retained the corruptions that overlie it do not invalidate the minimum.

Ho did not know what the author- .ics would do with him. Ho'.wai Authorized to ct , ho says , by the police nnd the Hudson bay uthorlttes , who tyrannized the half breeds nd abused their power. Speaking of the mttlo of Batnucho , Riol said ho had BOO men ngajod , of whom eight were killed and two rounded. During tbo fight he was among ho men in the pit. He spoke of the priests na opposed to any attempt on the part of the half-breeds to Imvo their wrongs righted , and denounced them ns tyranlcal , oto. IIo said The priests were against him , not because 10 rebelled , but bocanso ho did not succeed a helping thorn , The people forced him to ight , nnd would not lot him go back to the mountain. Ho was on his way to give him- elf up to Middleton , ho said , when the couts captured him. Un the subject of his oligious views he was very communicative , lo declared his opposition to the church of tome , nnd said its priests had too much to do with civil affairs , A council at Batouchc , ho ; ald , adopted n rollgious creed of distinct doc- rines which they wished to tench the people. "Wo believe in o form of church govern- nent , " he sa'd. "Wo prefer the episcopal. Vo would like to see a head bishop fur the dominion , or for the New World , who would > a independent of Rome. Wo do not think affairs of church can bo rightly administered o far awav. This country will never be free until she shakes off Rome. " When asked why ho rebelled in order to mvo claims of halt-breeds granted , he said : Wo did not rebel. This matter Is not re- ellion. " Ho referred to the treaty between hogovernment and half-breeds of Manitoba , and said as no treaty had been made with bis ollowers they had never tranigressed their ight. They simply defended themselves. They desired to have an aanoablo arrangsment nada for their interest. Asked what would IB his answer if charged with treason , ho said hat as ho was o citizen of the United States 10 could not be a traitor to Canada. Ho said 10 wont to the United States ot the soiicita- ion of a rich bishop , Tacho. He returned , iras declared an outlaw , and then went back : o the states to which he was banished for five years , "How much did the Canadian government give you , " was asked , "It gave mo SOO , " he murmured. 'GCO to mo and to my wife 230. " In addition 0 his abavo named defense , if charged with reason , ho said he should rely on his loyalty while a subject of the English government , tie concluded by saying : ' -Ihavo been true to half breeds and have not rebelled ogatnst the Canadian Government. I have my papers all right. A citizen of the United States can rMy ba a traitor to the dominion.

Ho says they are selfish and meddlesome and caused the present trouble , He had BOO men at Batoucho and 1EO on the lorth side of the river. Ho said eight were rilled and two fatally wounded. Riel says , he half breeds did not rebel ; they ware nol Teated fairly , and hoped for a treaty similai , o the ono made with iho half breeds of Mam < oba. Riel claims to be a citizen of the Jnited States and hence not a traitor to Can ada , and this , probably , will be his line of do- onso. A British Discovery. LONDON , May 20. The press awociatioE publishes the following , which , it says , wae btained from a reliable source : Early in January Alfred Aylward arrived n London _ from New York. He was ex- ; romely reticent In regard to tha object of hie rieit , but ono reason told friends was that jefore long ha would again prove n sharp .horn In the sldo of the British gov- irnment. Ho went to Paris and remained here a fortnight , staying at the American lotel in the Rug Dnnora , and doscriping him- iclf asa surgeon dentist.

Our informant says that Aylwards' ' visit was connected with Riel'e rebellion and the furthering ol , he movement among the Frencb imputation of Canada for their separation from Great Britain , The Riel affair was simply an experiment designed to ac < custom the French Canadians to the fo- nlans.

The present week will sea all crops for the growing season of 1885 in the ground. As wo approach the harvest of winter wheat wo cnn eeu nothing at all in the general situation by which wo desire to change any statement made with regard to this important crop , and wo have eaid , and now repeat , that the coun try does not realize fully the widespread de struction of tills crop ; that every bushel of spring wheat now in the ground will bo needed , and that farmera will get a coocl price for it wo have not tha slightest doubt.
