WASHINGTON nunr.AU Tun OMIIIA. BEB , 1 613 FOURTEENTH STHKKT , > WASIIINOTOX , U. 0. , Jan. 8. ) From n canvass mndo today among demo crats and republicans of the house a very strong feeling was shown toward investigat ing the alleged silver pool among members of congress. The resolution for this Investiga tion was Introduced some tlmo since , and has been ( tlumborlng before the committee on rules , Siwakor IJcod docs not think there is anything In the alleged pool , nnd ho has been opposed loan Investigation. But from the expressions today It Is evident that an invcs- vlgatlon will bo forced unless the commit tee on rules reports In favor of nn Investigation by the early part of next week. Representative Dockery of Missouri will move that the investigation bo taken out of Iho hands of tbo committee. Ho is assured of sufllclcnt support to carry through such a move , Messrs. Illount and Crisp being among these who will assist him. This step promises to make a lively scene next week. COMSIHNT ON" Tlin CEXSUHK OP IlEITBIt. The severe ofllcial rensuro which Secretary r > Tracy has administered to Commander Kcltor of tbo Thetis for not giving CJuneral Barruu- dia nn asylum on board the government steamer Is attracting much comment hero. Captain Boutcllc , chairman of the house committee on nnvnl affairs , nnd himself an old navy ofllcor , said today that ho had much doubt as to the wis dom of the censure. Ills idea was that when the captain of a naval vessel was in a foreign port , where there was a United States minis ter , the captain should take no active steps In an International complication except under the most extreme circumstances , but should leave nil such matters for the government ministers. In short , Captain Doutello would have done Just about us Commander IJeltor did. Captain Boutclle , therefore , says that thcro Is much popular misapprehension con cerning the protection which a government's Hag Is supposed to give those under . It. The government Hag even on a war vessel docs not protect men from police regulations. lie had himself , while In com mand of a United States vessel at Havre , seen the local authorities coma aboard and take off sailors who had offended against local laws. The Havre calabooso was fre quently full of these American tars. JUSTICi : TO JIII.1TA11Y TCLROItAt'IieiiS. Tbo house of representatives todny did an act of long delayed Justice In passing a bill rccognlzltu. the services of telegraph oper ators who wcro with the union army during the war of the rebellion. Although these operators performed services moro use ful than those of any soldiers and often endured dangers and hardships equal to any suffered by privates in the ranks , they have never until now been recognized as hav ing any part lu tbo suppression of the rebel lion and have been raf used nil recognition for their services. Upon the motion of General Osborno of Pennsylvania , however , the bill -Vas pnsind today and there will bo no trouble ' in getting it through the senate. TUK SACKVII.LE-WEST INCIDENT HP.VIVCD. Senator Cullom received a letter this mornIng - Ing which recalls that diplomatic comedy which ended with the sudden extinction of Sir Lionel Sackvllle-Wcst ut the close of Cleveland's administration. An old friend of tbo senator wrote him introducing Mr. George Osgoodby of Pomona , Cal. Mr. Os- jroodby wanted some documents concerning the Saclcvlllo-West dismissal. It was explained - plained that ho was the clever Callfornlan who entrapped Sir Lionel Into the bad break which secured his retirement. There has al ways been KOIUO doubt ns to who got up this trlclc , but the letter to Senator Cullom today put the questions nt an end. Ospooduy and the alleged Murchlson uro ono mid the same. Senator Cullom sent Mr. Os- goodby bulf a dozen copies of the correspon dence between Secretary of State liayard and Sir Lionel Suckvillo-Wcst , in which the secretary of state courteously but emphat ically Invited the English minister to pack up bis traps and get out of the country. ALMOST A BTAMl'EDE. Quito a nmro's nest was stirred up today over the shipping bill. It was alleged that the result of the passage of the bill would bo to so encourage the ships which bring iron ore up from Cuba that thulron ere industry of the Grrat lake region would bo annihilated. This seemed so plausible that there was a stampcdo from the shipping bill by all tboso northwestern men who have Iron Industries In their locality. The representative of the American iron interests who Is here took the viuw that the increased bounty given the Cuban ere would bo very disastrous to the American article. Koprcsentatlvo Stevenson of the upper peninsula of Michigan set about examining this charge nud found that It was quite groundless. The figures which have been produced to show that American iron would bo Injured wcro entirely In accurate. As it result of the In vestigation the twenty-eight representa tives of Iron constituencies who had threatened to bolt the shipping bill were brought into line once moro. Ueprcscntntlvo Stovonaon himself said that ho would vote for the bill and had no fear of the Cuban ere scare , and as Mr. Stevenson represents the biggest Iron locality lu the country his load will undoubtedly bo followed by all the others. tllSCEU.ANBOUS. Secretary Proctor has written the follow ing to Ucprescntntlvo Dorsoy in reply to the hitter's Icttiu' transmitting a petition from the citizens of Kovn Palm county relative to retaining the garrison at Fort Kniulall , S.

[ Special Cablegram to Tnn BKB.J Anolher day In the history of the great Scotch railroad strlko opened with out any signs of definite Improvement in the situation being shown. The railroad dlroc- rsliiu'o repeatedly announced the strlko practically ovt-r ; thnt the strikers nro beaten , nnd that the usual t radio upon all lines has been resumed. This statement was believed nt first , but now It seems that the utterances of railroad officials were not correct. In and about this neighborhood thcro are still about six thousand tncn out on strlko , nud , in spite of the statements made by representatives of the companies , freight traflluls nollmprovod. On the other band , the strikers are continu ally receiving financial nnd moral support from the vnrloui trade unions throughout Great Britain. Though the sum received by each striker is small und far from suflletent to keep their families from suffering , the aid received enables them to keep up tbo light against the rnllro.id companies. Tbo gen eral public Is longing for some kind of a set tlement to bo arrived at between the compa rt JA'.T/.t.KC/C ItKTfllED. Tlio Origin of Ills Dlnpnto with the I'mpcror , BEni.t.v , Jan. 8. fSpecInl Cablegram to THE Bin : . ] The Hallcscho Zoltung claims that the origin of the dispute between the ompcror nnd Prlnco Bismarck Is as follows : Dr. Slmson , president of the Lclpslctribunal , Is said to have emphatically represented to the emperor in January , 18SO , the danger to Gorman prestige If the prosecution el Prof. Gcfllckcn for high treason is continued. lr. ) Slmson protested ngnlnst the efforts attrib uted to Prlnco Bismarck to Influence the public against the professor , thereby , the doctor claimed , exercising pressure uoon the supreme tribunal's ' decision. The public prosecutor , It will bo remembered , la Janu ary , 1SSU , served upon Prof. Gofliekon in this city nn Indictment for high treason In con nection with tbo publication of portions ot the illary of the late Emperor Frederick. The Indictment , a voluminous document , traced the entire working- life of Prof. Gonickeu In trying to provo that ho bad boon a persistent enemy of German unity , THE VJAOUCT BONDS. ' They Are the Subject of Two Injunc tion Suits. An amended petition has been filed In tbo district court In the matter of the request of Ernest Stuht restraining , the city comp troller nnd Stnto Auditor Benton from turn ing the Tenth street viaduct bonds over to the Union depot company or to the Union Pa cific. John IX Howe is made a plaintiff In the amended petition , which is considerably en larged In Its scope. It inukos the mayor , comptroller and nil oflicials and employes of the city , State Auditor Bcntou , Thomas L. Khnball und Hon. Alvln Saunders defend ants. In addition to the order concerning the bonds , the amended petition asks that the transfer of the property to the Union depot company bo restrained nnd thnt all transactions between nny of the parties to the action , touching In any way with the bonds or the docds to the property bo estopped pending a settlement of tha case In court. The viaduct bond ? are reposing peacefully meanwhile In a safety vault to which Comp troller Goodricti carries the only koy. EXPECTING A. SliXTIjIISl K.\T. A Prospect that the Ilrhl-o Embargo May be liaised Soon. The railroad situation regarding the Union I'adllo bridge controversy remains practi cally unchanged. The I ock Island is waiting quietly to sco ' what will-bo the outcome of the Milwaukee's Injunction case , and the Milwaukee is mix- iously looking for the decision of Judge Dundy , who has the case under advisement. Neither road Is mailing any further attempts to got trains across the bridge , nnd it is probable that everything will remain .quiet in that direction until the decision of the court Is announced or a settlement agreed upon. The local oflicials disclaim any knowledge of the settlement reported to have been made in New York , but are Inclined to think that there is something in It , and there Is a gen eral feeling that tbo ofllcial announcement of a settlement of some kind will bo rnudo with in a day or two , by the terms of which the Milwaukee ami Hook Island will bo allowed to cross over Into Omaha. Sentoiiri ; Day In tlio Federal Court. A number of United States prisoners who had boon confined in the county Jail awaiting sentence , were brought before Judge Dundy yesterday afternoon. The first ono to bo called up was E. P. Graham , tUo Fremont school teacher , who had used the United States malls for the purpose of informing gullible people that bo possessed tha secret to the road to wealth via the "green goods" route. Graham had been convicted under two indictments ami had been ir. the county Jail about six months , most of that time hav ing been slnco his conviction. Ho was lined $ W ) and committed to the custody of tbo mar shal until February 1. if ho Is unable to pay the line ha will bo retained In the custody of the marshal until ho has worked out his line nt the rate of 1 per day. llclng committed to tno custody of the marshal is a polite way of committing the victim to the county Jail. A. A. Stewart of Grand Island , another "preen goods" man , was the next victim , lie Informed the court that ho had been In the county Jail flvo months. Ho received the same sentence as Graham. Frank Ker and Charles Mount , the two boys who stole a boat at Nooraska City belonging - longing to the government , were lined $50- nnd costs each. Charles Paulson of Lincoln had been con i- victed of making nnd passlnir counterfeit inonov. He had been In Jail six months and told the court that he bad a wife and baby in Lincoln who needed his protection. Ho was lined $50 nnd committed to the custody of the marshal until the 20th lust. John Fitzgerald , the soldlor from Fort Omaha who appropriated a kit of barber's tools from the tonsorlal department of the fort , was lined f.25 nnd costs nnd given into the custody of the marshal until Monday , Fred "Wiggins was convicted nt this term ' of counterfeiting , but sentence was with hold until tils partner , Kdward Hcdmond , has had his trial , which will take place at Lincoln during the January term.

CARING FOR DESTITUTE SETTLERS. Measure ! ) Tnken to Supply the Needs of Those Who Deserted Their Ilotiien Cheerful News from A.II the Companies. Nob. , Jan. 8. [ Special Tele- gram to Tns Br.n.1 Special orders were Is sued this morning by General Colby , who returned from Clmdron last night , forwardIng - Ing additional supplies of clotlil'uy , pro visions , etc. , to the bravo boys now on the line of the reservation guarding tbo lives nnd property of the settlors. Although a snowstorm is raging , not ono murmur or complaint has been hoard from them , nnd some of the companies remaining in thu towns seem to envy the ones chosen to go to the front. Lieutenant Lyon of the First regiment , no- eompanlod by two scouts , was dispatched to the front to Inspect the condition of the cunrds and move thosonearest to town closer to the line of the reservation. The Indian chief Younp-Man-Afrnld-of- His-IIorscs and a f < nv other Indians departed this morning for the agency hi charge of a detachment of regulars. Lieutenant Colonel W. R. Dlsboft of the Sccotld guards arrived hero this morning from Ogden , Utah , and reported to Colonel Bills for duy. ! The needs of the settlers who have boon driven into the towns by the Indian scare , nro today being looked nftor by Lieutenant Tnylor nf the regulars from Fort Hoblnson. Ho found hero only twenty-six families that were positively destitute , but the fact Is thnt many loft for their homos on the urrivat of tbo national guards , so that unless the investigation is carried into the country the relief will bo but partial.

The boys spend their tlmo at writing , reading , mending their already worn outgov- crnmeut clothing , cracking jokes and spin ning yarns. It has boon reported here by some of our scouts that the settlers Quartered at the court house are dancing every night nnd wo nro expecting orders to compel them to stop or move our company to the scene of the trouble. Wo have lots of bravo boys who nro anxious to either take part In tbo dance or put to rout the dancers. General Miles nnd stntt arrived yesterday nnd our orders are to move this morning to a point on Heaver crook ton or twelve miles north of this place and no doubt more interesting events will follow. Many of tbo citizens nro quite Indignant to think that the companies are ordered away from the town and the boys are sorry to go , owing to .tho fact that wo were promised n banquet by the citizens. Otherwise the boys are all willing" to go nnd do their duty as soldiers. .Hopes uro enter tained that nn opportunity will bo offered to give the boys a chance to show the stuff of which the national guards are made , and let mo promise Tint BEB readers that the boys will aqult thomsclvos in a way that will bo a credit to themselves and the organization. In the way of rations , wo still have a box of candles and six pounds of soap loft.Vo will probably take the entires supply wltb us to the front , and no doubt that after the legislature meets wo will receive another issue of rations. Lost night the company was busy getting ready for today's ' movo. The tents were mended and and all necessary preparations made to make the boys as comfortable us possible. Our com pany quartette were out last evening nud as it was generally conceded that It would bo the lost tlmo wo would hear such soul-inspir ing music until wo hoar the roar of the canyons ( in our now positions. The boys will miss the kindnesses showered upon them by the citizens of Chadrou nnd many of them fool they are leaving a place of which there is no better in tbo state for hos pitality.
