James A. Goodwin , treasurer of the
Pauldlng-Cralgon company , which has been
lying over In this city a" few days and U to
appear at Boyd's this ovenlnu , mysteriously
disappeared Wednesday night. Mr. Pauldlng
and Miss Cralgen are not angry , but alarmed.
They say It la Impossible that Goodwin went
off on a spree or that ho has turned em
bezzler , because ho Is a young man of sober
habits nnd of strict honesty. They fear that
ho has met with foul play.
Ho was to have gone to Fremont Wednes
day night to do some advance work for the
company , which was to have appeared there
last evening , but missed his train and said
he would go Thursday morning. Ho at
tended the play at the Boyd's In company
with Miss Crulgcn and Mr. Pauldlng and tlio
last they saw of him was at the conclusion
ot the performanca when they bade him
good night.
They chanced to learn Thursday morning
from Mr. Winter , Goodwin's room mate ui
the Murray , that ho did not return to the
hotel from the opera houso. The manager
of the house at Fremont was communicated
with yesterday morning and It was learned
that Goodwin had not gone there , and In-
qtilry at the railroad olllco In this city re.
vealed the fact that no ono answering Oooa >
win's description had purchased a ticket to
any place according to the rate contract
\vich | ( the company has with the railroads.
ftV. Loomls , program agent at Boyd's ,
tli.uks he saw Goodwin In the city Thursday
afternoon , but Mr. Pauldlng Insists ho must
have been mistaken.
Yesterday afternoon Mr. Pauldlng apprised
the police of the facts and asked their as
sistance In solving the mystery ,
Mr. Goodwin could not luivo had , Mr.
Pauldlng says , more than $100 In his posses
sion when ho disappeared.

WASHINGTON BUREAU OF THE BEE.
513 Fourteenth Street ,
WASHINGTON , March 16.
National Commlttceman Tobias Castor left
Washington this afternoon for Nebraska. Ho
does not soon expect to return to the na
tional capital. Ills stay of ten days hero has )
been productlvo of the appointment of seven
or eight presidential nnd ten or twelve
fourth-class postmasters tor Nebraska , and
the precipitation of the appointment of Dr.
George L. Miller to the office of surveyor of
customs at Omaha. Mr. Castor stated just
before leaving that ho had no Idea when a
United States district attorney for Nebraska
will bo named , or who the man may bo when
his name docs appear. The hitch Is at the
Department of Justice and the dilemma
seems to be similar to that which en
circled the selection o ! the Omaha customs
officer. The attorney general has recom
mended ono man , possibly ox-Mayor A. J.
Sawyer of Lincoln , nnd It Is understood that
Messrs. Morton and Castor have recom
mended another man. 1'osslbly the presi
dent will take the matter Into Ills own hands
nnd name a man of his own choice. Ho cer
tainly will 1C some ono will miggcst a good
compromise name.
Committccman Castor , as ho was taking
the train this afternoon , expressed con
fidence In the frultfulncss or his efforts to
land the Nebraska-Iowa pension agency for
his own state. He said the president had
received the mention of Judge J. C. Craw
ford of West Point with unusual favor ; that
he regarded thu man highly and seemed to
bo pleased with the proposition to give the
agency to Nebraska. Mr. Cantor stated
that If the McDIll vacancy on the Interstate
Commerce commission goes to Iowa again ,
Nebraska appeared to bo almost certain to
get the pension agency , but that It the
vacancy was filled by California or any other
state than Iowa the latter would likely re
tain the pension agency. Mr. Castor stated
In reply io an Inquiry that he could see no
Inclination here at this time to fill any moro
of the republican land office positions In
Nebraska with democrats ; that It looked as
though the Incumbents would servo out their
four years , and that where vacancies oc
curred there would bo no great haste to till
them. There are five or six republican land
officers In the state , whoso successors have
been strongly urged upon the secretary of
the Interior by Mr. Castor , nnd It was con- | i
fldently expected that action would be had i
some weeks ago. This Is especially true of | i
the McCook office. | i

Representative. Mercer In the house late
this afternoon offered an amendment to the
sundry civil appropriation bill providing that
the Missouri River commission should expend
$150,000 for Improving the river between
Sioux City and the mouth of the Platte. Mr.
Metcer , In support of his amendment , sub
mitted many facts and figures showing the
shabby manner In which Omaha has been
treated by the commission nnd the
necessity for protecting the work on the
Missouri at Omaha and Council Bluffs. Ho
pointed out the great Interests Involved and
the immediate necessity of the work , as has i
been mentioned by resolutions of the Omaha '
city council nnd the Board of Trade. Ho
pointed out the unnecessary expenditures
at Jefferson City , where there Is no commer
cial Interest Involved. Mr. Mercer's speech
covered the ground completely and was an
effective one. All the Nouraskans nre work

ItucllryliiR of tiflrtitlii A1ni r .
WASHINGTON , Marpl ) 16. For a number
of years It has been the , desire ot the house
judiciary committee t jjecure legislation re
ducing expenses and reforming tbo methods
of the administration of justice In the United
States courts.Vltri that object In view In
vestigations have been coml icloJ , with the re
sult that serious abuses have been found to
exist In several of them. Efforts to remedy
these abuses have not-to any extent proved
very effective. During the present congress
the house has passed n bill to change In
some respects the methods now In vogue In
some of the courts , but It has not yet been
acted on In the senate. It has been deter
mined , therefore , by those Interested In se
curing the needed legislation to have the
propositions added as amendments to the
sundry civil bill now pending In the house.
j These amendments have been prepared by
Representative Wolverton of Pennsylvania ,
at the Instance of the judiciary committee ,
nnd by agreement they will bo offered to the
sundry civil bill today.
All the amendmenta have the approval of
the Department of Justice. They provide
substantially as follous : United States mar
shals are prohibited from charging moro
than the actual traveling expenses for pris
oners and guards , instead of 10 cents per
mile , as now allowed by law. No fees are
to bo paid to marshals for executing any
warrant from a United States commissioner
unless the same shall have been executed
within fifty days after Issue. No person
who- holds an olllco or employment under
the government shall receive compensation
for discharging the duties of nny other
office or employment. Tlio fees of clerks of
coutts are limited to $3,000 , and ono person
may bo clerk or the circuit nntl uisir i-i
courts at the same time at not exceeding
$300 per year. Commissioners' fees
are limited to $1,500. Naturalization
fees are fixed as follown : Filing declara
tion of Intentions , $1 , and final papers , $2 ,
and clerks of courts are required to retain
as part of their emoluments all fees for
naturalization. The fees of commissioners
are limited by making some changes In
existing laws. For all services where
there Is no arrest $1 Is to be charged ; for
a hearing and binding over on a criminal
charge and all services In the case ? 3 , and
no more. A fco of $5 Is also fixed for hearIng - .
Ing and deciding In the case of persons
charged with an offense under a treaty , In
stead of $5 per day as now.
Another amendment prohibits the filing
of "Informations" by private Informers for
violations of Internal revenue laws and re
quires such Information to bo made by the
district attorney , collector or revenue agent.
Only such witnesses are to ho subpoenaed
bcfora the court as shall bo directed by tlio
district attorney , Instead of allowing the
deputy marshal to subpoena and take to
court any persons who/dcslro to moko the
trip. Jurors are t/j , bo paid for their
actual days' attendance and the necessary
time consumed In gotng to nnd from the
court. No bill for iwltness fees is to be
paid until the district attorney certifies
that the witnesses wtjre regularly sub-
poenacd , vere In attendance and were neces-
sary. In hearings before commissioners
only two witnesses shall be subpoenaed un
less directed by the district attorney , and
the fees are not to tie paid until the dis
trict attorney certlflc's 'that the witnesses
were properly summoned. Bailiffs and
criers of courts are to bo paid only for the
days which they actunHy served , and which
does not Include any days when there was
actually no session of the court.

WASHINGTON , March 16. Senator 11111
has Joined forces with the western senators
In urging the earjy consideration In com
mittee of the territorial admission bills. Ho
brought the question up at the last meeting
of the senate committee on territories and
said that as considerable tlmo had elapsed
since the Utah and Arizona bills had passed
the house , and as there seemed to bo no ob
jection to the admission of Utah on account
of lack of population or wealth or for any
other legitimate cause , ho thought the Utah
bill should , at any rate , bo taken up by the
committee.
Senator Faulkner , chalrmun of the com
mittee , replied , reiterating his desire to have
Utah admitted , and saying that the admis
sion bill would be taken up In due course ,
but as the tariff bill was to soon bo reported
to the senate and would , when once under
discussion In the senate , necessarily consume
almost all the tlmo of that body , there was
nothing to be gained by haste In consider
ing the bill In committee and reporting It.
Senator Hill Is chairman of the subcommit
tee on Arizona , and has not yet called the
subcommittee together to consider the
Arizona bill.
