    THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : WEDNESDAY , JANUARY 18 , 1803. 5
Majority Report from the House Commerce
Committee Favoring the Bill.
MANY OBJECTIONS FROM THE MINORITY
JlrniM. Mint nnd Mrtllory Giro Their Urn-
ions for O | > | io lng H'o ' I'ropninil Memure
i Attending on thn
of Much a l.iur.
WARHINOTOX , D. C. , Jan. 17. Mr. Patter
son of Tennessee , In the rc | > ort of the ma
jority of the house commerce committee on
the bill allowing jwollng , says that on ono
Imnd It has been Insisted that to allow such
apportionment would enable roads to main
tain high rates. On the other hand it is
contended it would result In n more
equal ronauction of the business of these
trui.sK ; | > rtaticm companies ; would not in
crease rates and would liavo the effect to
prevent rebates and discriminations against
small shippers.
The committee Is of the opinion that
under the arrangement provided for pooling
no harm will befall the public , and an op
portunity will bo given to intelligently solve
a much mooted problem.
I'rolrnt from the Minority.
Mr Llnd of Minnesota nnd Mr. Mallory of
Florida represent the minority , and report
that thov feel In duty bound to protest
ngalnst the pooling section of the bill , and
call attention to the objections to
It. It proposes , they sav , to legal
ize "railroad wrecking" and stock specu
lation * bv authorizing not only agreements
for the division nnrt apportionment of net
and gross earnings among the carriers them-
nolvos , but also authorises the carriers to
dlvido and apportion these among other car
riers. Under thcso provisions stockholders
will bo ns much at the mercj of the railroad
managers as will bo the public. The Stan
dard Oil company , the dressed beef combine
and other mono ) > olics can obtain rebates by
contracts enforceable in the courts instead of
by stealth and concealment , as heretofore.
Ilnllroad transportation H n natural
monopoly. The clement , of competition Is
wanting. The bill takes aw.iy the only safeguard -
guard that wo have had heretofore ngalnst
railroad extortion. The coiiipotllloii of
water routes has always been a thorn in the
sldn of tr.inic associations and pools. It has
frustrated many well laid schemes to op
press the public. This embarrassment the
bill renames. The annual million dollar
bonus to the Pncillc Mail Steamship com
pany to refrain from competition may here
after bo paid in pursuance of law. In con
clusion , it is said to bo unfair to the Inter
state commission to subject them to the Im
portuning and pressure that this hill would
Impose upon them should it become a law.
To Incrcuso till ) Circulation.
In the house of representatives Brosius of
Pennsylvania introduced a bill to authorize
the refunding of the 4 per cent bonds to in
crease the circulation of the national banks ,
nnd to discontinue the purchase of silver
bullion It authorizes the secretary of
the treasury to issue , In sums not ex
ceeding in the aggregate $ r > 00,000,000 ,
registered bonds In demoninntlons of > ( ) , or
multiples thereof , redeemable in coin of
ntandard value at the pleasure of the United
States after forty years from the date of
issue , and bearing interest at the rate of"
per cent. Such bonds shall bo exempt from
taxation The secretary shall dispose of
thcso bonds by exchanging them for the
4 per cent bonds now outstanding. ISvery
national banking association that shall trans
fer to the treasury bonds authorized
under this act shall ho entitled to receive
circulating notes equal In face value to the
par value of the bonds so deposited , and
shall , In lieu of the tax assessed upon the cir
culation of national banks under existing
law , pay to the treasurer of the United
States on January 1 of each year a duty of
one-fourth of 1 per cent upon the average
amount of Us notes in circulation during the
previous year. The law providing for the
purchase of silver bullion Is repealed.
I'roposiMl Silver
The anti-silver men In the house have
made no active move 'toward gelling the
Androw-Cato bill up , and It may bo they will
now decide to wait on the senate. It is Mr.
Andrew's intention , however to able the
committee on rules for u day for the bill ami
free coinage men expect they will got It ,
Mr. Bland , Mr. Pierce , and others have re
jected all propositions looking to a
compromise , and profess they are able
to prevent any attempt to force a vote
by cloture or otherwise on the repeal of the
Sherman act , Many anti-silver men , how
ever , belluvo thatjiood will como of the con
sideration of the repeal , oven If it bo not
passed , by securing a test vote which will
show that u. majority I ? opposed to the free
coinage and that illllbustcring alouo pre
vented a repeal of the present law.
The canvass that is being made of the
house for the repeal of the bill Is very Im
perfect. The influence of Mr. Cleveland is ,
of course , very strong , and n great deal of
dependence is put in that. A great many
democratic partisans who arc in favor of the
coinage of silver , but whoso partisanship Is
stronger than their convictions uiwn finan
cial questions , are tired of the constant irri
tation growing out of the silver agitation ,
nud are ready to go a long way In most any
direction they are convinced Is most to the
party interest.
There is somewhat of a complication as to
the republican jiolicy. Some republicans
who nro opposed to silver think that the
question ought to bo loft open to nnnov the
incoming administration , but It appears that
most of them will votu their convictions if
the question is pressed and will not bo dis
turbed by the consideration of what will
most perplex Mr. Cleveland.
1'luns for the Nuiul Itotlavr.
The Navy department has practically out
lined its plans for the great naval review in
Now York harbor. Secretary Tracy has
ordered Ucar Admiral Bancroft Gherardi to

will bo temporarily discontinued until the
eloso of the review , when they will bo revived

by Its venerable president , Frederick Fraloy
of Philadelphia , who has been president
since its organization. Mr. Fraley is now
past IK ) years of age As ho came in leaning
on the arm of an attendant the delegates
gave him a round ) f applause.
In calling the bo.ird to order President
Fraloy congratulated the delegates on the
long continued uxlstenco of the board , and
said that the general interest felt in the pro

further continuance of the body with con
stantly increasing usefulness.
Several nowmcmbersweroadmitted. Then
came the election of oftlecrs. Mr. Fraloy was
unanimously elected president for the twen
ty-fourth consecutive time.
A vice president from each organization
represented was announced. Maiiy delegates
desired to hear the anti-option dcbato in the
senate , and an effort was made to secure ad
journment , but opponents of the bill wanted
some action taken at once in order that it
might have some effect on the scnato , if
possible , before a veto is reached in that
body. With that object in view the follow
ing resolution was adopted without a dissent
ing voice :

LINCOLN , Neb. , Jan. 17. [ SpecialTelegram
to Tun Ben. ] The annual mooting of the
Nebraska State Board of Agriculture was
called to order In the University chapel nt 4
o'clock by President Jensen. The attend
ance was good. Chancellor Cantlcld wel
comed the board In n neat speech , which was
responded to by Mr. Jensen. The president
did not have his report ready , but the treas
urer and secretary submitted theirs.
Secretary Furnas reported receipts for the
year ISM , Including the $3,000 annual appro
priation from the state , of 11,71.1.15 ; ex
penses , premiums , etc. , { 20.374 2fi ; other pur
poses , $22,7'i2.CO. The report also contained
an interesting summary of the crop statis
tics , which show 13/Jr.l,443 acres under
cultivation in the stato. The increase of
products of the two beet sugar factotlcs was
placed at S'.H,000 pounds.
The matter of holding a fair this year was
dilated upon by the secretary In his report
of the Western District Fair association.
Illinois had tried the experiment of uasslng
a fair for a year with her fat stock show ,
and It was a disastrous experiment. Ho
recommended that one bo held.
The auditing committee handed in Us re
port showing everything in good order , and
a number of committees were appointed ,
among them being ono to impress upon the
legislature the necessity of providing a hall
at Lincoln where the various state societies
could meet. Pending the report of the com
mittee on credentials , an adlournmont was
taken until 9 o'clock tomorrow morning.
The board of managers was in session the
greater part of last night closing up the
business of the previous year. The secre
tary's report shows that the fair of last year
failed by a little over $ : i , ; )0 ) of paying ex
penses. This , In spite of the fact that the
attendance nnd receipts were much larger
in IbW than the year before. Secretary
Furnas explains that this paradoxical con
dition of ulTairs as duo to the fact that the
speed premiums were greater by $4,000 , en
trance fees smaller , and that fully 00 per
cent of the premiums offered were paid ,
whereas the average is only about 75 pet-
cent , that being the percentage of exhibits
to premiums offered. Again u number of
improvements were made in the stock pens ,
and additional accommodations provided in
other departments.v
Sugar beet premiums were awarded as
follows for the best quarter acre : Jacob
Weber , Orleans , f , " > 0 ; Fred Hoby , Grand
island , ? 45 ; J. M. Armstrong , Greenwood ,
W2.0 ; James Loghrey , Geneva , MO ; Alonzo
Sherwood , Nonpariel , $37.50 ; John McConnell -
nell , Somerset , SB ; F. McCoy. Alliance ,
S32.M ) ; Francis Jones , Hampdcn , 530.
The talk which was prevalent yesterday
of dispensing with a fair this year lias about
died down. Nearly all of the members who
arrived today are emphatically in favor of n
fair , and Secretary Furnas says that there
will bo ono without any slip.
The corn show in Grant Memorial hall is a
big success. Ne.irly all the exhibits were in
place this morning , and the hall presents a
pretty sight. Among the exhibits is ono
prepared by Secretary Furnas for the na
tional congress of fanners. Others repre
sented are W. H. Arburn , Cumlng county ;
Leo Smith of Washington , C. M. Snoko of
Richardson , L. Spelltnau of York , Bob
Aleeso of Lancaster , J. H. McLanhan of
Clay , John Lyons of Lyons , A. A. Hard of
Elmwood , W. M. Colcman of Hcd Willow , G.
W. Hawkins of Kearney , besides a number
from Saundcrs. That shown by Hawkins is
ono of the most extensive and consists of
over eighty varieties of corn.

In the Supreme Court.

this evening in the hearing of the applica
tion of G. F. Belts , ono of the indicted
asylum contractors. The argument was
opened by W. B. Price for Belts , followed by
Attorney General Hastings and ox-County
Attorney Sncll for the state , C. O. Whcedon
closing for the plaintiff. The point made by
the plaintiff's attorneys was that the Judge
could not call a grand jury during a term of
court , but that it must bo calico under the
statutes twenty days before the opening.
Judge Post announced that the court had
practically decided to deny the writ before
hearing arguments , but at the request of the
attorneys would listen to them and write an
ODlnion to servo ns a precedent.

stick and thu woman was discharged.
Charles Williams , who was accused of
having robbed Andy Bayllss' house , had his
case reconsidered after getting an attorney ,
who proved that It wasn't quite night tlmo
when the net was committed and
therefore ho couldn't bo guilty of burglary.
The court thought so , too. but gave Williams
a sixty day sentence hi the county Jail for
assaulting Bayllss.
