[ bpcclal Tele gram ] A California- genius named Dr. Phelps , lias presented to congicss nnd thu officials of the tieastny department dcslcns for tjur paper cmrency which aio unlqucaiid which he is trying to have adopted. The purpose of the new designs Is to pievent "laislng" and to enable Ignorant people who cannot icad to icadlly distinguish one bill from another and know its denomination. It Is proposed to make the one , two and live- dollar bills of one color ; the ten , twenty and fitly of another color , and the one , two and live hundred-dollar bills of still another color. Then the first seiles each have a uniform style of lettcilng , nnd have bars on which no the figures and Ictteis telling the denom ination In bitch a way that it Is Tmcossiblo to laiso the face value , and any child or illller- nto poison could icadily learn their value. It has been along ttino since thcio was a change made in tlio general design of the paper or silver cmreneyot the goveinment , and tlicpiescnt style has pioum so satis factory , and people ha\o grown soused to the conventional green and black that any new pioiKHltion will bo consldcicd cau tiously. The bankers and people who handle n great deal of paper omrency and who have toconteud with counterfeiters and the er- tors ol Ignorance have universally endoised the new designs pioposed , but it will icqniie nn act of congicss to atithoiiru a substitution , ind as congicss will baldly legislate on fi nance now theio Is no piospect of a change. After all thowoikln committal's and the Hurry of the lobbyists over land foifcltuies , it comes down to another point of lailmo when an effort Isnmde to foilelt. For many years concu-ss has woikcd up bills and elab orate favoinbleiepoits for foilclting the mil lions of iincai ned lands planted laihoads by the government to aid in their construction , but theio has been nothing tuither done. Some influence has repeatedly woiked to defeat - feat the final consideration of thubills. Thcio are now on the house calendar bills tavoi- ably rcnoited , which propose to foiteit seven ty or eiclity millions of acres of lands , tint . it Is said by those who ought to know that there Is not the least show of their passage. These rcuorts represent the woik ot fifteen good lawycis for months , and the work has been repeated every two yeais dining the past decade. It seems that thoiallioads ha\o the lands and will keep them , whether eained or not. Van AVyck and Anti-Monopoly. NKW Yoiuc , May 19.

Tlio house then went Into committee of the vholu on the senate amendment to the post- olllco appropriation bill , Mr. Mlllard briefly advocated tlio foreign nail scrvico amendment , contending it \ouldliavoabcneflclal effect on American commciec. Mr. Phelps said the amendment and vote ij" which It was adopted In the senate \MTO encouragement to Amci lean shipping. Ho was Ho was proceeding to make a summary of ho vote when ho was Intel runted by Mr , Blotint with the point that It was not hi older to refer to thu action of the sonalo. Mr. Phclps suggested that the gentleman ihotild be proud that eight democratic sena- ors had the com ago to vote for the amend- in-lit. Ho had rend from public prints that eight , democratic senators had voted to gi\o now steamships to American commerce and new ports to Ai.icilcan manufacturers. Thu senate having performed Its duty , the house piescnled to ittlicoppoituulty to pass iiioasuios full of advantages to tlio cotmtiy. What the country needed was new steam ships and foreign maikcts that this measure would glvo them. Thu country wanted its sea coasts defended. This measuio would do It by giving thu country a merchant marine , which was a militia of the seas. This measure was advantageous ami ought to bo passed , and It would bo passed unless the membeis weio filuhteiicd because some gentlemen had called It subsidy. Subsidy was a gift or excessive payment. Mr. Hlscock maintained thattno amend ment was not subsidy when the gen tie- man Insinuated that the lobby was lull of men pushing the senate amendment. He might as well leport that as stioiiK Inllueiiccs were at work emanating fiom thu other side of the ocean to stilkc down Ameiiniti steamship lines , mcasmcd by prices which were paid for cariylng our domestic malison the railioads , steamships and star ionics , the United States would bo paying under this senate amendment theory \ory lowest of compensation. Measured by the lates paid by eveiy European power , ft would bo paying a very small compensation Indeed. It theie was a governmental worthy of support it was contained In this amend ment. Mr. Spilngerfavoicd the policy of compel ling vessels that carried tlm American flag to cuiry the mails ot llio couutiy at a reasonable rate and was against the pioposltlon of voting ing a subsidy into the pockets of Jay Gould , Sidney Dillon and Unsscll Sage. Mr. llolman eainestly opposed the policy of subsidies and contended that that policy would not have the clfcct of building Amcil- cau commerce. Tills closed the geni'ialdo- tiate , and the committee rose and the house adjourned. Telephone InvcHtifjntlon. WASHING ro.v. May 19.

[ Special Tele gram. | The much-talked-about twenty-live mile loot race between Ilourllian , or Omaha , and Tufllcld , of Lincoln , for a stake of § 200 , came off at the Diivlhg park to-day In the presence of a small audience. Tullleld was in line condition , having been in training for three weeks , while Houlihan was soft from want of work , ana it was a foigone con clusion before the word was given that-thc race , bailing accident , would bo won by the foimcr. The match , as Is well-known , gicw out of the quarrel between the Thuis- ton and Fltzgciald lioso teams , the men being picked as the best long distance runners in the respective companies and capable of doing uattlo for locality supiemacy. Councilman Leader , the backer of Ilourllian , explained belore the Ftart that ho had been caught on the bet In making a bluff , and that lie did think his man could give Tuflield two miles and beat him , as the agicement called for. It a match on even teims was deslicd , however , Leeder .said ho would match Houlihan against Tut- hcldforSSO. After a little talk the men got the word and went oil at a lively gait , Ilou rllian leadinc. His tactics were to run Tnlllclcl down In the first ten miles , and ho made the pace a hot one. The Hist live miles were run in 20 minutes and 21 seconds , Houlihan be ing a halt mile In the lead. At the ten milo maik which he passed in fi8 minutes and 45 seconds , Ilourllian had Increased his lead tea a full mile. Fiom want ot training the iapd ! gait told on him more seveiely than it did on Tullleld , and the latter from that J hue on began to gain. When seventeen miles were scored Houlihan sei'lng that ho had no chance to make up the two miles handicap In tlio icmaliiing eight gave up the stmgcle , and the stakes wcro awarded to Tufllcld. Stiango to say the lace was HIM on the srjuaio , and , so tar as it went , ga\o satisfaction to all who saw it. Houlihan established the fact that ho has most speed tor any distance tij ) to ten miles , but Tullleld's lasting poweis woio too much for him. J. A.
