Including darl and , tiled to gel congressional
ondoiMMiient toi theii scheme , and evidence
in cited when1 it touehis upon the eltmt to
Reeiiro the appointment ot Hogeis as house
electilcian. it is tillered that Senatois ( ! ar-
land and HaiiisamKieneial Johnston busied
themselves pctsonallv to accomplish this.
The icport then lemarkson thofale of stain
rights to sub eonipanhjs , nnd sas : "The
Hell company sued the sub-companies. 'I ho
P.in-Klcctile company declined to defend on
tlio giound th.it It had no mono ) . Tlieiofoio
they determined to becuic the money ot the
United Slates to bling suit against
the Hell company to fiiglilon it
and drive it to hti ) peace. So thej obtained
j > ei mission , when they wanted It , as
the ) wanted it , without any piellmlnaiy
examination woithy ot tlio name , without
the usual investigation , and In dciinncc of all
tliuiulus and nraeticub of tlio dopai tinent , and
in dlieotdlsicgard of decisions made within
a month bv Its head. Had all the tacts de
veloped before the tommlttco been known

i inent ot justice would h.ivo then diiven these
jiotltioneis fiom its doors , toi public sent- !
tj inent would luv < ' coiibtialned It to do so"
' The lepoit , In commenting upon tioode's
share In the transaction , declaies that it
had made the Inquiries he ought to ha'
made , he couldn't have panted the appllc ,
tiun within twontjioinhouis and without
/ icleunce. Jt It , alleged that so far Irom
making a caieful o.Mimination of the sub
ject , ho never even irnd the petition.
'Taking all these things to ethei" says tlie
report , "It does not admit ot doubt that the
solicitor gcneial , acting as attoiney general ,
was by some means incited to ciant this ap
plication without tlie usual leteienco or in
quiry , without any uietensc of competent
examination , with unexampled speed , and in
violation of the piactlco of tlio dcpaitmcnt.
In an oulinat v case uch action would be
Bald to have been moot ot liand at least a
proof of gross negligence which , In a person
of Ids position , is equivalent to trand. Upon
( these facts , no ono ol which can be disputed ,
no jur ) would hesitate. It is onomrh , hovv-
. It cannot bo tolerated that
\ \o business of the government can be so
, Nulucted. It cannot escape observation

{ luA just as men would act If. already as-
I'Ybt led of what was being askeil , and that the
conduct ot the solicitor gcncial Is most easily
accounted lor on the assumption that ho
nndeistood tlio matter In advance nnd had
piodotciinlnedupon hlseotnsool aitlon. "
'Iho rcpoit then rccins to the subject of the
opinion tuinlshed by the attorney general.
it chaites it was wiittcn with a view to de
ceive the people in the southwest and sajs
that it was a sinew d view that the people so
believed. 15ut ho ( thoattoinoy L'oneial ) did
not. The best tliat can bo slid of
him is that ho lent hlmselt to

associate , ho hail not the boldness to do per-
( Minally vv Hat they thought was fair service

\ dopaitinent as smii thing was never done
bofoie. The pleas \ that the n.utics con-

giain to the Hi i . ] Tlio senate today dem
onstrated tint tvvo-thiids ot Its memheis do
not uiopose to allow the president to aibilia-
rll ) decide , after a casual glance at the facts
tliat the deliberations ot longtess extending
over many years are valulcss. The bill to
quit tltic to seltlcis on DCS Moines rivci
lands , which was vetoed uy the piesident
some tlijio ago , was taken up on motion of
bonatoi WlUon , nnd attcr a vigorous debate
was passed over the veto bv a vote of .11 to
P5. Tlieie is a great deal of jubilation among
the Iowa nieinheis ot congiess in cense
quence. and the opinion among them Is al
most unanimous that the house will follow
the lead of the senate , and b ) even a
laigei eompaiatlve majoiity , enact the bill
into a law In spite ot the opposition ot the
chlel madstinto.
Ciencial It. V. Ankcney , of Des Motnes
was sitting In a recess at the enhance to the
house , and when the news vvasbioucht ovei
tliat the bill had pissed the senate ovei the
veto , to your coiicspondeut General
Ankenov said ! "i'ho senate novel did a
more just act thin It has pel toi mod this alt ei-
noon. That bill ought to have been passed
) e.us ao , and although It seems to have a
fair chance now of becomlmr a law , Its
passage can novel undo the wrong which
congicssdid in the past In legislating awa )
these Des Moines nvei lands. "
"Have yon an ) personal intetest in the
mallei V inqiihed your eonespondent.
"No ; not in the least , " icplied General
Ankenoy , "but I was United .States deputy
maishat foi Iowa dining three ) ears w hen
the tionblts ovci these lands vveio at theli
height. In the course ot those tluec ) cais I
served titty two wilts ot ejectment , by which
tlio com ts , upholding tlie acts ot congress ,
legal l/ed the stealing away ot homes horn
men who had , in many instances ,
lived there for lit teen or twenty
) eais , and had tiled theii original
entries before tlie land was granted to the
navigation eompuiy. 1 remember some cases
wlieie men who had cone on those Ian Is In
the piimeot lite and had complied with all
the requiicments ot the law , who ha I built
homes and sunounded themselves with or-
chaidsandall the othei appuiteiiances ot a
well equipped lann , weie. b ) the act of the
couits , deprived ot the savings of a lifetime.
Gi.iy headed men , who had icared theii
children on the places they supposed they
owned as completely as any one man can
own real estate in this woild , wcic ousted
and robbed of their all by the stupid acts of
congress. The excitement along tlio lands
at one time was so high that I feared that
each call up > n a settler would bo in ) last , and
1 can assnio you that 1 could not have blamed
those poor people it they had killed oveiy
law othcci who entered their places to do-
piivo them of their lights. The piesident's
action \etolngthebiH was unaccountable ,
and the passage of it in the senate to day in
spite of tliat veto , cannot be too highly com
mended. "

The speech of Mr. Wilson ot Iowa today
favoring the passage ot the vetoed bill quiet
ing title to Des Moines tivci lands , and which
passed by moie than the lequiied two-thiids ,
vas ono of the most convincing lesral argu

"And then they shook theli goiy lists out
