WASHINGTON , Feb. ! ! . [ Special Telegram. ]
People who read the Congressional Uecord
to-day were surprised at certain expressions
* Jiey found In the eulogy delivered by Ilcprc-
acntutlvo Hall of Burllmztoii ( Iowa ) In tbo
ioiise yesterday on the Into Vice President
Hendrlcks. Some members were so unkind
is to rcmnik that such observations would beastly
) astly more appropriate on a democratic
stump mid ( lilt-ins n campaign ( save the
elegance of diction ) than where they were
uttered. The following are some ot the
paragraphs which attract comment :
"If , In taking that last L'reat step In 18TO ,
ho seemed to stumble and falf , It may bo
doubted If unworthy hands had not tied
treacherous crass across his path ; but the
rectification In 1881 of that mistake or wrong
restored him In his com > e , and established
that there should bo no regression In his
career. JIow he was loved by the people of
his great and noble state ! In a long and
eventful life ho had been brought Into contact
with all of them. Again and again had
hecomeinto the midst of every locality and
community , anil talked , to them at the hust
ings , lie was 'Tom Ilendrleks' ami they
were 'the boys , ' not In any wild or unworthy
sense , but as friends and equals. I need not
recount tlio many political contests which
have agitated that great state to Illustrate the
marvelous hold ho had In the faith and
aircctlons of her people.
"In the lastgrcat quadrennial struggle wo
of Iowa watched the contest with nn anxiety
never to be forgotten. Clinging to the same
political faith after a quarter of a century of
obloquy and deleat , struggling like men who
hope when there Is no hope , wo knew our
battle must bo fought and won In other
Htatesaml by other hands than ours. Wo
felt sine of New Tork. Wo needed Con
necticut , but did not dwell upon
her vote. How was Indiana going ,
mid where was llendrlcksi' With an anxiety
which mere political contests ought not to
force upon a people , wo behold concentrated
and converging upon her every appliance
and every Inlluciico from without. Wo wit
nessed nn Invasion of her domain by the
Thuned Knight' and his retainers , and the
state practically taken possession of as Ohio
had been the month before. Hut when that
potent but unnatural event had passed , wo
learned that It had only stimulated into re
newed and moio tremendous exertion the
spirit of our party. Wo know that lion-
drlcks had analii come forth from self-retire-
nicnt , and had taken the old beaten path that
lay so near tlio homes andhearts of his i'ellow-
clth.cns , and , in the old familiar , persuasive
way. was summoning them for help once
more.
" 'i have pledged them the state. My name
nnd faith are Involved. It Is I that calls. '
We in Iowa heard the loud shout responsive
to the call. At night , by means of the tele-
tfraph and press , we saw the distant auroral
light gleam upward from city , town and ham
let , all ablaze with torch and zeal. We know
the spirit of Ilondrlckft was abroad in Indi
ana , and that as sure as the sun should rise
on that eventful November day , Indiana
would bo ours if human power could make it
KO. And when at last the result was known
who was there who did not comprehend that
while Mr. liemlrlcks was second on the
ticket , yet it was his to consider which were
the higher honor ami gicater glory to be or
to make the president. "

A well known senator stated to your correspondent -
respondent to-dny that It was very probable
that , the ssenntn would conclude to summon
before certain of its committees tlio nominees
for prominent federal positions against
whoso characters serious charges have been
filed. This will necessitate tlio summoning
ot a largo number of witnesses from almost
every purtoftho country , and will lead to
one of the most extensive investigations over
made by congress. It do\olops that the com

charges , aiid tho.-o who have made them for
additional information , simply complicates

WASIIINOTO.V , Feb. ; . [ Special. ] II Is
absolutely dligusllng the way army and navy
men , and those connected with other branch
es of the government service , work for favor
with the members of concrcss who arc in po
sition to assist them. At one of the leading
hotels hero reside two or three members of
the house. Their famalles are with them.
Kach of the monitors occupy a position on
the committee on military or naval alfalrs of
the li < > ii.e. . Constantly at the heels of the
wives or daughters of these members Is nn
army or naval ofllclal. Flowers , parties , the
aters , drives -nothing Is too expensive ,
troublesome or cheeky for these persistent
Individuals to bestow , lly being on favora
ble terms with the families of the members
these innti liopo for favors from the husbands
and fathers.
In the same way do all classes of govern
ment employes curry favor , and In some In
stances It becomes annoying and a source of
scandal. The wonder is that the ladles do
not see for what purpose these attentions are
bestowed.
NO JIAXKnt'PT LAW.
"There will be no bankrupt law enacted by
( his congress , " said an influential member of
the senate committee on judiciary to your
correspondent.
"Why ? " I asked.
"llecause , " said lie , "there Is too much op
position to a bankrupt bill J'rom the country.
Only the wholesale merchants of the very
largo cities want It , and those of the smaller
cities and they carry the bulk of influciicn
oppose It. The wholesalers of New
York , or Plttsburg , sav , poll goods
ns far west as Kansas , N ebraska , Iowa ,
Indiana , etc. AVhen one of their
customers get Into a financial straight they
do not learn of U until he has assigned. Then
comes the preferred creditor work. Now
tbo wholesaler In the small city has a clreum
scribed Held. He is near his customers , hears
from them frequently , and docs not suiter by
the preferred creditor system when an as
signment Is made. He has less failures , too ,
under present laws. There is n great deal of
opposition to a bankrupt law now , although
i think we should have one. "

To every newspaper man who has called at
the white house during the past fortnight , it
Is stated , the president has brought up the
subject ho reeent'y ' treated , in which ho said
newspaper men were liars. Mr. Cleveland
may as well bo rightly understood first as
last. He did not mean that the profession of
journalism was represented In this country
by a school of liars.
" \Vhatevcrtliefaccofniyletter \ may indi
cate , " said ho to a journalist yesterday , "I
only mean to call attention to the largo
amount of lying there is done by a largo num
ber of newspaper men in the columns of their
journals. There are as many honorable men
in the profession , I suppose , as any other.
In fact , I am personally acquainted with
hundreds of them , representing all political
parties. I wish It understood I intended no
thrust at the general class. "
WOHK OK TJ1K COMMITTEES.
WASIIINOTOX , Feb. 3. The Dunn bill to
amend the Tliurnian bill was further consid
ered by the house committee on Pacitic roads
to-day. Chairman Throckmorlon laid before
the committee a letter from C. P. Huntlngton
In regard to the indebtedness of the Union
and Central Pacitic railways and the benefit
they nnd been to the country. He says that
the various bills before congress Impose ob
ligations greater than the ability of the com
pany to perform , that any unfriendly action
must necessarily put the debt In greater
peril , and that the stockholders are willing
to submit to arbitration.
Gen.lames 15. Weaver of Iowa , and Hon.
Sidney Clarke , ex-member of congress from
Kansas addressed the hou.io committee on
territores to-day In behalf of the organiza
tion of the territory of Oklahoma. The gen
eral stated that tne lands are now In illegal
possession of foreign and other cattle syndi
cates No Indians had occupied them for
twenty years and It was not now the policy
ot the government to settle any more In
dians In the territory. Kvery consideration of
good government and fair dealing with the
Indians and the people demands , ho said ,
that this unoccupied laud should bo opened
to settlement under the well
guarded provisions of the bill.
Clarke ngued that the only remedy
for the disgraceful state of art'alrs now exist
ing in the territory was in congress , and he
urged the committee to come to the relief of
the people as against the rule of illegal
monopolies and syndicates.
The civil service commissioners to-day had
an informal conference with the house com
mittee on reform in the civil service. In
reply to Mr. Dlanchard of Louisiana , the
commissioners said they thought It would re
quire an amendment to the civil service
law to allow the commission , in
making appointments , to take into conslder-
ation the number of employes alrcadv in
ollico from tbo various states. They did not
consider an amendment wise , however , as It
would tend to render the whole civil service
unpopular with the north and west , because
under It the south would get nearly all the
olllees , and thus open up a sectional question.
Under the law the south was now
getting its share of the offices ,
and would in time have Us proportion. The
commissioners did not think It wise to do
anything which should make the law un
popular In the north , where Its strength now
principally lies ,

DBS MOINI : . " , Iowa , Feb. f ! . [ Special Tele
gram.J It Is news to a great many people
that Iowa has n Moating deliclt. of nearly a
million dollaRi , which now rises like a ghost
before the general assembly whenever extra
appropriations are prouosed. Up till quite
recently It has been the boast of the state that
It did not owe a dollar. But the last general
assembly had poor mathematicians , and In
computing the piobable receipts and expendi
tures for the last two years they made the
former too large and the latter too small , con
sequently they made annual appropriations
for n million dollars more than the current
Income , and the state treasurer has been ob-
Heed to endorse the auditor's warrants and
let them go on Interest.
At the close of the last fiscal year , Juno r > 0 ,
1SS5 , the outstanding warrants of the state
amounted to 50Tr > .Viii..V ) . The cash on hand
amounted to 50,147,151.01 , leaving a net
deficit of $018,3i .fi9. At the close ot busi
ness hours last Saturday night the outstand
ing warrants amounted to SO.OTij.C'JT.Xl , the
cash on hand was SO.ias.O-JO.OT , leaving a
present indebtedness of 5831,090.80. This Is
a pretty good slx.cd sum for Iowa to bo carry-
lug , many of tlio legislators think , and so
they propose that it shall be paid off from the
general revenue during thu next two years ,
before any new enterprises are undertaken.
There Is no complaint that the deliclt was
caused by cxtravavant appropriations , for it
ins gone largely for now buildings and other
mprovements In the various state Instltu-
lons. But there is much criticism that the
last general assembly should make such
! argo appropriations without providing
iieans for meeting them. The treasurer of
itatc says that with economy mid prudence ,
making ample provision for the usual needs
of the state , and moderate allowances for
necessary repairs to state Institutions ,
ho whole deficit can be wiped out in
he next two years. This seems to be
lie policy of tlio legislature , and retrench
ment and economy arc hurled at every prop
osition for an unusual or extraordinary ap
propriation. Iowa pioposes to get out of
: lebt by the shortest road , and as the constl-
ution foibids the funding of any debt ovc.r
§ 250,000 , the only way to do it is to pay the
ilclicit from the current revenues.
In the house to-day a bill was introduced
making It unlawful to paste the names of
candidates on the election tickets of an op-
loslng party.
In the senate a bill was Introduced to
provide for local or county boards of arbitra
tion to settle disputes between employers
and employes. It provides that a district
judge may , on application , appoint a board
of four , wno may choose a fifth , If necessary ,
and their findings shall be entered on the
court records with legal force. It Is substan
tially what is known as the Ohio law on this
subject.
The senate concurred in the house resolu
tion memorializing congress to favor the
Ucniicpln canal.
There was a long and heated debate In the
senate over Mr. Button's bill to grant n
change of venue on application of a district
attorney or the attorney general. The
judiciary committee reported that it bo in
definitely postponed. Mr. Button thereupon
advocated his bill , which was opposed by Mr.
Uolter ( dem. ) and Mr. Clark ( rep. ) A motion
to postpone indefinitely was carried with
only one dissenting vote.

The Union Pnalllo's Case.
WASIII.VOTOX , Feb. n. The report of the
Covcrnmcnt directors of the Union Pacific
tallway company wns received by Secretary
< amnr this afternoon. Under thu head of
'Isolations of the Hallway Company to the
iovernmeut , " the report says :
The salient feature In the relations of the
Union Pacillc to the government Is that the
oad Is debtor to the government to a very
arge amount , the debt being secured only by
i second niottgage upon a portion ot the
iroperty of the company. Under these cir
cumstances there has grown up an uneasl-
less on the part of congress lest the debt to
bo United States mluht finally bo lost , and
eglslation has been had with n v ew to pre
vent that result. But the legislation had so
'arseeni- * admitted on all sides to have failed
if Its object and to have brought about a
state of all'alrs which calls for early ac-
lon. 'For some years every sccre-
ary of the treasury , every com-
nlissloncr of railways , ami every
mard of government directors has reported
o congress that the Thurman act , under the
conditions changed since its passage , is
. early locking up In comparative Idleness ,
argcsumsof moneyto the mutual loss and In-
nry of the debtor and creditor. U Is probable ,
herefore , andj certalnlylseems desirable , that
early congressional legislation be had upon
this subject. In the consideration of the vari
ous measures that will doubtless bo proposed ,
lothlng can be more Important than that the
government should have as clear an estimate
ns possible of the real value of the property
ipon which Its debt rests , of tlio load which
ts debtor carries , and of Usability to bear it.
The following statement exhibits the en-
ire mileage system , including all Its fml.shcd
tranches , on September 'M , 1885. and Its lla-
) illties in bonds and stock In the hands of

The directors speak of the value of the
branch line system , and say that without It
the main line would to-day uo bankrupt prop
erty. They consider it of the most impor
tance to the-road , and to the government as
Its creditor , that the Union Pacific should bo
as free as any ot Us competitors to build or
acquire branch lines or valuable connections
by any of tlio usual arrangements auionir
railways for such ends. Otherwise It would
bo at a fatal disadvantage for territory and
future business , and the develovmcnt of the
country tributary to it must languish. As
matters now stand the debt of tlio road Is
growing larger from year to year , and the
time of Its maturity is not far distant. The
uncertain attitude and intentions of the
government are calculated to im
pair the credit of the company nnd
not only hamper It In efforts to secure its
present and future- business on n n.ifo
loundatlon , but even In case of a serious
financial crisis to tin eaten grave disaster.
This Is'soclear'and sonlmplo that no argu
ment seems necessary to enforce. It. Tlio
government Is the principal creditor of the
company , and lias thu power to precipitate It
Into bankruptcy should It choose to exercise
It. To let matters nlono Is practically to
cxerclso the power , for every year that settle
ment is postponed tlio position of the
company is weakened. The course of
the government should bo that
which any practical business man
would pursue with a private debtor In a sim
ilar situation. It Is for congress to apply
those principles to the cnso ot tlio Union
Pacific road.
The report stales the provisions of two
bills reported from the senate judiciary com
mittee last session , and after discussing the
various plans proposed for adjusting the
annual payments to bo made by the company ,
the board commends the plan of equalized
payments which has been adopted by the
honato judiciary committed In framing tlio
eighty-year bill reported this session.
The report continues : It has been sug
gested that the government should reserve
the riitht to take up the underlying first
mortgage bonds of the company when they
fall line , and acquire the lien which their
bonds have upon the property. The arrange
ment would seem 'o be a desirable one on
both Mdes. It would make the lien ot thu
government upon the whole system absolute
and entlro. and as the government can bor
row money at ! l per cent , It would raise the
fixed charges upon the property about § looo-
( XX ) per annum below the present require
ments. This'saving would reqiilie nn Issue ot
bonds of about SJi-'i.OOJ.OOO.
It Is most desirable , says the report , that In
any now legislation thu amount ot annual
payments should bo definite and a fixed hum
to bo paid absolutely , without regard to net
earnings , gross earnings or any contingency
whatever , and when this change Is made in
the present laws , tlio lestrictlons upon tlio
financial operations of tlio companyimposed
to protect tlio annual net earnings , should bo
removed , that tlio company may ho unembar
rassed In the use of its credit. The govern
ment cannot undertake to manage Iho com
pany In the whole , und should not assume
any partial responsibility , but may feel , en-
tlrecontidencethatitis in no danger ot los
ing the debt.
r As has been shown above the entlro issue of
bonds and floating debt upon the whole sys
tem is but about S2.jXX ( ) per mile. Should it
become necessary for the government to
foiecloso and take possession by any default
of the company , it could put a blanket niort-
gago'upon the whole at 3 i er cent , which
would make the annual. Jixcd charges only
S750 per mile on n line now earning nn nvcr-
ago of about $5,500 per mile gro s nnd
S'AOOO net. It Is understood by the
government directors that the company
Iocs not wish to bo considered
ns Itself MifrscMIng or advocating nny spe
cific measures which may bo brought before
congress further than to point out to the
best of Its nbllltv the probable results of their
operation. It claims thnt If It had been left
o Itself It would have been in n position to
ncet all Its obligations to the government nl
heir maturity In Its own way , which wns to
julld up n large system capable of raising
he amount necessary by n blanket moitgnge.
The present and future niinl now be dealt
with , nnd some early action Is a pressing
icocssity , and as some action Is a necessity ,
t Is most desirable it may be at once com
prehensive and final.
For this reason the government directors
confidently recommend early action , and
lint It should bo based upon the principle * of
the Hoar bill , the period Mug fixed at eighty
years. Under continued operation of the
J'hunnnii bill , some further legislation would
still bo absolutely necessary before maturity
of the debt. This would keep the company
iml Its nll'alrs In congiess for twelve years
onger , and under any bill renuliinir pay-
ncnts contingent tmon net earnings , ( lllllcul-
les and questions will continually arise be-
ween tlio company and the depni I incuts.
Jnder the principle * of the Hoar bill thu
natter may bo settled at once and forever ,
and no longer bo a trouble to congress or the
courts. Tlio company would simply have to
nake Its annual payment or lose all its prop
erty , and the amount at risk by the govern-
iicnl would grow less , and its security
greater year by year.

Prohibition Platitudes.
li : Moi.\i : . , Iowa , Feb. .T , [ Special Tele *
grniii. ] There was a premature explosion ot
prohibition oratory In the senate this after
noon , which was quite Mottling fora llttlo
while , but not serious In Its effects , Senator
Sutton's bill providing that the state may - ,
take n change of venue In cilmlnal cases on
the single motion of the dlslrlct attorney or *
attorney general , was repoited back by the
judicluiy committee with thu recommenda
tion that It bu liidellnltoly postponed.
Senator Sutton thereupon asked for the
reasons lor this recommendation. The chair
man of thu judiciary committee , Senator
Itobluson , said It proposed to do away with |
one of the fundamental rights which every jj ,
man claimed , thu right when accused to bo
tried by n jury of his vicinity.
Senator Sutton forthwith launched Into nn
exciting argument for his bill , nnd the
friends of Mngun Chartn put the old instru
ment on dial. Sntton maintained that
whereas , he alleged was the case In sixty-
six cities and towns of the state , the pro
hibitory law wns openly disregarded nnd
violated , nnd it wns n shame that law
breakers could , not bo convicted ot their
crimes , that the state should In order to vin
dicate itself bo allowed to transfer the cases
to communities where a fair Jury could bo
obtained. Ho said that some of the
prohibitionists were so full of zeal
that they screamed lustily from
the house tops for the enforce
ment of prohibition , but when effectual
means were proposed they drew back and
refused to take hold of them , llu said ho was
sick and tired of so much talk that seemed
to bo only for political effect. Sentimental
talk about enforcement was very pretty , but
it did not go far if it .stopped with talk.
There were cities defying the law and noth
ing was being done about It. If tbo temper
ance people were really sincere In their de
mand for enforcing the law , they would adopt
some such measure as his bill proposed.
Senator Clark of Page , one of the strongest
prohibition republicans in the state , opposed
the bill , claiming that it would work in
justice In many cases. If it had been con
fined to violators of the prohibitory law , ho
thought ho would have favored It , but when
It proposed to take away the natural rights of
all citizens lo bo tried by a jury of their
peers of the vicinity , ho thought that was
going too far.
Senator Bolter spoke for the democrats ,
and made a violent attack upon the bill , call
ing it diabolical , infamous and worthy only of.
a despotic government. He warmed up an
old stump speech haranKe.ngnlrist prohibi
tion , and closed by saying that when the
measure to whIcli-lhlftl > IU. < wnt * . only an ad
junct came up for discussion , he should make
a set speech.
His attack upon prohibition called up Mr.
Clark , who Is the Patrick Henry of the sen
ate. Ho poured out a torrent ot eloquent
words In defense of the non-partisan idea
of temperance. He said that the democratic-
paity was responsible for bringing it into
Iowa politics , for the lirst prohibitory law
overpassed In this state was passed by a
democratic legislature. If , as the senator
from Harrison had said , the prohibitory law
bad created crime , then every law
on the statute books had created
crimes instead of being ordained to suppress
evils. He replied to Sudan's statement th.it
n change of vcnuo was the last resort In law ;
defending the communities by saying that
injunction proceedings were always open ,
and deprived no innocent man of his per
sonal rights.
Sutton made a vehement reply and said
that though ho had often heard the demo
cratic cry about "personal liberty , " this wan
the first lime in bib life he had heard It from
a prohibitionist republican. He wns
not surprised to hear such talk from
Senator Bolter , for the democratic
paity had made it Its chief business to op
pose prohibition and hinder its enforce
ment. A saloon victory had always been
claimed as a democratic victory , but ho
couldn't understand how republicans fcbould
take the po-utlon they were in.
bo the debate waged for nearly two honis ,
but Senator Sutton's arguments failed to con
vince , for his bill was Indelinltely postponed
with only ono dissenting vote.
