Senator Sherman's speech ou the tiirllT this
morning was listened to with grout Interest ,
both by the members of the senate uud
crowded galleries. Republican senators pio-
noundo It ns a remarkably stlong ami abio
pi emulation of the arguments for protection
of American Industries. Senator Paddock
vrus seen by your coricsiondent | uud asked
for his opinion on the subject. "I consider , "
said he ' 'tlmt the speech was one of the
strongest which I have heard delivered hi
the Semite. Its arguments are practicably
unanswerable. Circulated among republi
cans and In districts where thutarilT question
is certain to be considered with more than
usual Interest In the coming campaign , I be
lieve that It will make many votes
for the rcubllcan party. " An
unusually l&rgo edition of Mr.
Sherman's speech will bo printed , nnd thu
demands for copies f i om senators for distri
bution among their constituents will bo un

Contrary to the expectation ns well ns the
dtled purpose of the" spuuhcr , at nn curly
iour this morning-tho Jiousocommittees were
not made public , When Mr. Carlisle went to
tie capital morning-he had the list pro-
i.ired for publication but he was so beset by
nembors who.had learned of their assign-
neiit und who we'ro dissatisfied therewith
lint ho was forced td i > est | > otio the publlc.v
Ion in the hope that' ho might bo able to
nuke u ievlslon daring tht > day that would
cud to produce a greater degree of harmony.
When congress tuljourncul for tlio holidays
t was orrangcd.thut Mr. Cox , of Now Yoric ,
hould bo u member of ways find means. Ho
rus anxious for service on that committee
uud his assignment "was uiado lu
ibcdicm-e to his own demands
mil the dcslro of the speaker tpjiavo a Now
York member on that committee , it seems ,
lowovur , that Uwu | returning to Now York
Mr. Cox discovered that the-vlows expressed
n the president's message did not reccivo
he hearty endo'rsenlent front the masses unit
Vom the leaders that-he hud been led to ex-
icet. Ou the contrary ho found that It was
he general belief that any effort to give
iructleal effect to the sentiment of the mes
sage would ha likely to endanger the success
at the democratic national ticket lu New
York state next fall and bring defeat to
hose representatives in Congress whoso
ifforts would bo devoted to passu blll'.frained ,
n accordance with the messago. Therefore
Mr. Cox telegraphed the1 speaker yesterday
hut ho hud reconsidered his determination ,
nul did not desire assignment to the ways
mil means committee. Mr. Scott , of Penii-
ylvuuia , was thereupon reflected to take the
ilaeo of Mr. Cox. Mr. Scott learned of
his arrangement ui m his return to Wash-
nglon this morning. Ho was wirprised and
> eggcd tlmo to consider the matter nud Mr.
Scott lias also been among the people slnco
ho issuance of ttie message and he also seems
-o have learned thattho proposition to reduce
ho annual revenues to the extent of $ bO,000-
500 or $100,000,000 without touching sugar or
obueco docs not meet with popular appioval.
L'hcroforo Mr. Scott hesitated about nccept-
ng a place on the majority cud of a commit-
eo charged with the revision of the tarift
on the basis of ttio president's message. Mr.
Seott would have cheerfully and promptly
.cceptod service ou tlio committee a month
igo. Ho now hesitates , but It Is believed that
10 will finally consent , rather to relieve ttio
speaker from further embarrassment and lu
obedience with the Wishes of the president
ban lu accordance with his own desires. „
There was trouble also over the constnic-
: ion of the appropriation committee. Mr.
lllss , of Now York , wanted to bo chairman
of the Pacificrailroads. . The speaker hud
good reasons for not giving him tlmt place ,
ilthough Dllss was on the eommlttre ti the
congress and is now first for promotion To
econeilo Hllss he wus assigned to appioprla-
lous. Other members of the Now York
Iclegatiou wanted Stalilneeker for appropria
tions , ami that gentleman and his friends In-
cud a vigorous protest against ttio profer-
nent of IJHss. There wcro several other
MSOS of discontent us great as these herein
lied , so that the speaker , who is u good-
nutuied man und desires to please ull the
numbers as fur us possible , was forced to
ake refuge in further delay. U is now stated
tlmt the committees will certainly be an-
lounccd to-morrow.

[ jtiiiuir'0 Confirmation Very Doubtful.
WASIIIXOTOX , Jan. 4 , { Special Telegram
o the Lint : , ] Until to-day the confirmation
of Mr. Lamar as associate justice of the su-
in-ome court has been looked upon as u fore
gone conclusion. To-day there is talk of re
jection. It is said that there bos been a
strenuous effort made to keep tlio republican
party iu line. Senator Evurts , who was ex
pected to vote for L'amar's confirmation , has
ilcolarcd his intention to vote with his party.
There will bo a republican caucus upon this
question , and Senator Sawyer says that ,
while ho is-inclined to vote for Lamar , he
considers his first duty to stand by
his party , nnd that ho will abide by
tlio caucus. It is now asserted that tlio only
senators who are lu doubt are Mitchell , of
Oregon , and Uiddlcbcrgor. The latter will
vote for Lainur. and republicans generally
believe that Mitchell will bo peisuaded
to vote witti his party. This would produce
u tie , which wpuld be. a virtual rejection.
Lamar may bo rejected after ail , and in that
event Senator Sawyer will not report tlio
nomination of Mr. Don M. Dickinson , the
judiciary will not report the , nomination of
Mr. vilas , and there will bo no cabinet jiist
yet unless Lamar should conclude to retire
voluutui ily from the cabinet.

C.MIIIIKF , Jan. 4. [ New York Herald
Cable Speclnl to the Hnu. ] The three
Americans nnd the one Englishman among
the exhibiting pugilists showed good judg
ment in selecting this town of coal and Iron
for their shows. All day special trains have
iicen arriving crowded with minors , farmers
and idlers Intent upon .seeing Sullivan nnd
Ashton , Kllniin nnd Mitchell. At nil adja
cent stations were tlio flaming bills nnnounc-
ng Sullivan and Ashton nt Philharmonic
.lioatro nnd the other two nt the Star music
tall. Sulllvnn Is not much admired by the
jrnwny Welchmcn because Vulcatis like him
ire common lu the Hhoda valley nnd moun-
: alns. The reception given to-day to Kllrnln
nnd Mitchell on their arrival was equally
re-arm with the one to Sullivan described in
yesterday's dispatches. A fondness for the P.
[ { . is seemingly as strong among Wolchincn
ns In the olden times. Kllraln and Mitchell's
nudlenco was very much the largest. This
, vas perhaps partly duo to the fact that Sul-
Ivan made his first appearance last evening.
Ho and Ashton gave nn exhibition similar to
; ho descriptions already many times cabled.
The Herald correspondent , who hod seen
iliem in London , noticed , however , that Sul-
Ivan greatly panted after his exertions. The
rounds were so much applauded that nn
encore round was given entirely of light
sparring nnd scientific attack und defense
alternated by either , us an arrangement of the
wogramino at both places allowed. A large
number of Sullivan's audience loft for the
other exhibition.
Kllrnln and Mitchell , botli nttircd nil in

ENDORSED THE ACTION.
The Efforts of the Freight Bureau
Delegation Ilatlflcd.
A public meeting of the board of directors
of the Omaha board of trade was held last
evening nt the chamber of commerce to hear
tlio report of the delegation of the Omaha
freight bureau which appeared before the
inter-state commission at Washington. Com
mlssloncr Griflltts read first the complaint of
the Omaha freight bureau , which charged
the Chicago , Burlington & Quiticy , Chicago
& Northwestern , Chicago , Milwaukee & St
Paul , and the Chicago , Hock Island & Pacific
with making the city of Chicago their initial
point for west-bound traffic nnd since July 11
last , making unjust discrimination against
Omaha on the first five classes of west-bound
merchandise from Chicago to Lincoln , Fre
mont , Wuhoo , Beatrice nnd Blue Springs ,
stations on the Union Pacific railway system
In Nebraska. This was followed by tlio
reading Of a number of replies from these
railroads , which were mainly distinguished
for the manner iu which they evaded the
charges.
Messrs. Gray , Griflltts , Gibbon nnd others
cited instances not named in the complaint in
which Omaha was discriminated against ,
one of which was that the rate per hundred
from Minneapolis and St. Paul to Omaha v/as
IS cents , while from the sanio points to Kan
sas City , which is 200 miles further south , it
was only 15 } cents.
Mr. uosewutcrMiid thot the great trouble
would bo to convince the commissioners tlmt
the laws had been broken. He thought that
the best remedy in tlio case was to appeal to
the Union Pacific for lower rates. Ho advo
cated the unity of the Omaha business men
in this present fight and was strongly In favor
of patronizing only such roads as did not dis
criminate against them ,
Ho was followed by Mr. Griffitts , who
warmly endorsed the course of action out
lined by Mr. Koflowutcr. Mr. Grlftltts also
gave some other cases of discrimination , as
did Mr. Eason. Mr. Kiison was in favor of
taking steps to secure the best of legal talent
to help present the claims of Omaha in pre
senting this matter before the national com
mission.
Messrs * . Hitchcock and Griffitts also advo
cated such action , Mr , Hosowater was op
posed to such expense , as the matter was not
ono of law but of fact. Mr. Gray and Colonel
Chase botti agreed with Mr. Uosewnter.
A flora few other" speeches the following
resolution was passed :
Kcsolved , That this meeting fully endorses
the report of its delegates , and pledges itself
to do all in its power to further the interests
of our city as indicated therein.

that the rolling-stock of the roiid had

All this work required extra men. Thatwoik

COLONEL SMITH'S PLUCK.
How He Persuaded Jay Gould to Tnko
801110 Tribune Stock.
Townse-ml In Uoston Glebe : In Kuw
York during Chrintmnrt week , J spent
almost n whole dny with Nleholns Smith
who mnrrlud the oldest iltuijrhtliors of
lloraco Cti-ooloy. Colonel Smith hns
boon Mjvoroly treated , or 1 urny pay nit-
Hod , for aomo time piist on account of
iipparaut llnnnclnl dilemmas. JUit U 'is

or iittueks h , goiitlonnui fortiispocunlury
straits.
Much tlmt ImppoiiH in this world becomes - '
comes confused in our minds by confus
ing the Unit's , which often explain oc
currences in their Hfquonco and cutn-
uory. Snid I to Mr. Smith :
"How Ion j ; nftor Mr. Grcoloy tiled did
you niiirry thu daughter of Mr. Groo-
" '
loyi"
'Mr. Cirooloy hud boon douil almost
three years , " tuiil lie. "It was about
three yours after Hint when I Bold the
Tribune slock Mr. Greeley owned. " '
"How much did you got for that
stook'i1"
"It may be Interesting to you , " wild
ho , "to know the circumstances under
which 1 ( li iHsed of Mr. Grooloy's Inter
est in the Tribune. When I married
his eldest iluughtor she had been re
ceiving nothing whatever from that i
stock for about three years. Finally n
iiotiliciUion was received that they w'oro
about to double the Tribune stoolj and
make it liOO instead of 100 shades. Tlio
penalty upon thoau who owned the un
fortunate btouk was to pry $ . > ,000 v sha.ro
in order to como In on the
now distribution. I then called upon
.Iny Gould at his house , and told him
that the family of Mr. Greeloy would'
not pay this assessment ; that they
had to bo kept out of their duos long
enough ; that I would go anil heo nobody
else who represented this stock. In- ,
iine , I told him that I had como to see
the matter and not the man. Ho said
tlmt ho had nothing to do with buying
Mr. Greely'rf stock. Said I : 'Yes'you
have got everything to do with it. You
have paid $10,000 a share for tlio con
trolling interest in this stock , but have
been very careful not lu buy the stock
of Mr. Ureely's family uud his children.
The stuck of all other kinds of people
has boon uUondoil to , but not the dtoclc
of the man who created this newspaper.
I tell you that you shall not play any
fiu'lhoi * tricks upon this family ; wo olTor
you our slock , and expect you to buy it. '
" 1 wont to Mr. Gould's house the next
morning. Soon after I arrived there
two mfll.inly-looking men made their
appearance. I understood the meaning ;
of their bohi brought in ; it was notu'o
to me that Mr. Gould would have mo
whipped if 1 preyed conclusions upon
him. They made no impression , how
ever upon me. He then said ho did not
see how ho could buy this stock ; that ho
hud all the stock he wanted in the paper ,
enough to control it , and that ho was
not obliged to buy Greoly's block. 1
said to him : 'Air. Gould , you will have
to buy that stock of Air. Greely's family.
\\ra are not coming into this new ar-
riingiiiiMit. You huvo no alternative
but to buy this stock.
"He then siid that he owned some
bonds in the Northern Central railroad
of Pennsylvania , which wore worth CO
cents on $1. He said that he would take
the oiglit shares belonging to Air. Greo-
loy , provided tlio Greeley family would
take ttio Northern Central bonds for 60
cents on $1. This would make th6 oiglit
bhures ut5,000 como to . ' 0,000. I said.
'Air. Gould , wo will take your bonds. '
And that is all the Greoloy family re
ceived for Air. Greeloy's eight shares
out of 100 in the New York Tribune. "
