WASHINGTON , Jan. 19. Under a special
order adopted yesterday the whole day in
the house was devoted to the consideration
of private pension bills. Of the 900 onthe
calendar fifty-two were disposed of during

There was n pathetic Incident In con
nection with the first bill called up. It pro
posed to grant a pension of $12 a month to
Margaret O'Donncll , a volunteer army nurse ,
who devoted her services from 1SC2 to 1SC5
to the wounded of the Twcnty-aecond regi
ment of New York Light artillery. IIui
claim has been , pending before congress for
several yearn. Today , when the bill was
brought up Mr. Thomas , republican of Michi
gan , moved that It bo laid on the table.
"The-relief carried by the bill for this poor
woman , " ho said , "comes too lato. Our com-
mlttoo has Just"received word that the bene
ficiary ! i dead. "
Bills to grant pensions as follows were
paEsed : Thirty dollars per month to Richard

Mr. Turple .Sppiiloi AKiilimt the Mrnr-
nHiiun din it I Illll.
WASHING TON , Jan , 19. Tbo scfl lon ot
the Bcnuto today wan without Incident. Sen
ator Ttirplo spoke against the Nicaragua ca
nal bill , and the reading ot the legWatlvo
appropriation bill was completed , with the
exception of soctlunj making provisions for
the ioijrcsonal : ; ! library , which wcro passed
ovur temporarily , In the abscnco of senators
Interr.itcil In the subject.
Mr. Turple , In opening , mentioned the his
tory of concessions to conctruct the canal.
All ueh attempts had failed. There was
nutlilni ; extraordinary In this bill which
would Insure the success of the project. The
enormous profits to be gained from the suc-
ceitful operation of the canal had been
ajioken of. Not a financier < ln any part of
the world would consider the design. This ,
he ald , was an outcast , a beggar , a pariah
among enterprises. No private money would
bo Invested In It , although It has been widely
ndvprtlssd the world ovnr. The stocks and
bondu of the construction company , If the
appropriation were made , would have a com
mercial \.iluo. The stock ot the Nicaragua ! !
Canal company ( Commercial ) depending for
value upon the completion of the canal ,
would bo worthless. The funds of the Pan-
ania scheme of Do Lossepa were raised by
a't&vy upon the plain people of France.
Their credulity was followed by failure. ThU
wn.s the fourth American concession , but It
was peculiar In ono thing. Neither UoWltt
Clinton , Vanderbllt nor Kelly had asked
govorfiini'nt aid. This Is the first tlmo an
insolvent company has asked congress for
JIOO.OOO.OOO1 to carry on.a project which can
not bo completed. They wanted the money
on general principles. The projectors had a
schedule for an act of Incorporation from
rongi-cS ! . They had represented that there
would 1 3 no difficulty In disposing ot bonds.
London nnd Paris were thirsting for thorn.
Upon that understanding the company was
Incorporated. The government was to bo
In no wise responsible. This , Mr. Turplo
said , acted as an estoppel of the demand
for an appropriation now , or there was no
virtue In the English language.
From Its inception the project was dis
credited. The three signatory powers to the
concession distinctly disclaimed responsible
Ity , either directly or by guarantee. Ho
was not In favor ot making reimbursements
for money spent when It was shown that
four times the necessary amount had been
mink. It was robbery. He questioned the
right of the government to guarantee a note
of a citizen of the United States , as was
.sought to bo done now. The constitution did
not authorize such action.
Only once have we guaranteed the notes
of citizens , In the case of the Pacific Railway
companies , which owe us $100,000,000. Would
It not bo well , ho asked , to wait until AVO
received that before guaranteeing any other
bonds. There was a great similarity be
tween the two schemes , nnd he feared the
outcome would bo the same a loss to the
government. The canal , If built , should bo
built by authority of congress by the sec
retary of war. If It is ever constructed a
military force will have to be stationed there
to protest It from public enemies and private
malice. It will bo a military and strate
gic point. How could this bo reconciled
with private ownership ? Of the eleven di
rectors provided for , seven would bo directly
Interested In the canal , while the other four
in'lght bo Imnartlal.
Bcforo closing Mr. Turple stated that bo
had discovered that the government had not
guaranteed the bonds of the Pacific Railroad
company. The government had Issued Its
own bonds and taken those of the company
lu cxchanco. Mr. Turple announced that ho
would continue upon the subject of tha canal
tomorrow.
Unrln the afternoon Mr. Gordon , demo
crat of Georgia , announced that owing to
the absence of several senators the eulogies
upon ex-Speaker Crisp would bs .postponed
fiom Thursday to Monday next at 3 o'clock.
On motion ot Mr. Cullom , republican of
Illinois , the legislative , executive and judicial
appropriation bill was taken up. Thro readIng -
Ing of the bill , with the exception of-the pro
visions In relation to the congressional li
brary , which wcro passed over temporarily ,
was completed and committee amendments
acted upon. Mr. Cullom said he would take
the bill up at an early hour tomorrow.
Messrs' . Hale , Quay and Blackburn were
appointed as conferees on the army appro
priation bill , and at 5:45 : p. m. the senate
adjourned.

cators.
At 4 p. m. Cardinal Gibbons , In his scarlet
robes , headed the procession across the unl-
vcrsltv crounds to McMabon hall. Ho waa
accompanied by Monslgnor Martlnelll , the papal -
pal delegate , and a number of visiting cler
gymen. Following tluse came the faculty
and students of the university. McMahon

The ceremony opened with the reading of

CARDINAL GIBBONS' ADDRESS.
Cardinal Gibbons then delivered the open
ing address. Ho referred to Pope Leo XIII
and Bishop Keano as tbo founders of the
university , and also paid a high tribute to
Vlco Rector Garrlgan. Ho heartily con
gratulated Dr. Conaty on the auspldous cir
cumstances of Ills appointment , and re
ferred to the high ostconi In which the new
rector was held by men of high station at his
former home.
Proceeding , ho said : "Let the watchword
ot the Catholic university bo 'Revelation and
Science , Religion &nd Patriotism , God and
Our Country. ' If I had the pi'lvllcgo of modi
fying the constitution of the United States ,
I would not expunge or alter a single para
graph , a single line , a single word of that
Immortal structure. The constitution Is ad
mirably adapted to th& expansion of the Span
ish religion and the Catholic rellgt'n Is ad
mirably adapted to th genius of the con-
Btltutlon. They fit together like two links
In a chain. "
The cardinal referred with satisfaction to
the fact that the university did not have to
look to the government In order to shape Its
action , the only restriction on It being the
limits of Us o-vn purse.
Ho added : "Hero , thank God , our govern
ment holds over us the arm ot Its protection ,
without Interfering with our God-given liber
ties as expounders of the dlvlnf law. "
The cardinal clcaed with an eloquent pica
that nil of thiso connected with fho uni
versity bo vindicator , not only of religion
and sdonco , but also Oj ! the civil and polltl
cal Institutions ot our beloved country.
At the conclusion of the cardinal's address.
Vice Rector Garrlgan stepped forward and
presented the now rector with the constitu
tion and seal of the university , adding on
earnest welcome to Dr. Conaty. The latter
acknowledged the long-continued applause ,
and then began bU Inaugural discourse ,
speaking In a atrong , pleasing voice.
DR. CONATY'S ADDRESS.
Dr Conaty , after expressing his deep gratl-
tudo to the directors of the university who
had designated him to the 'honor ' of the rec
torship , said that ho had been called to hU
new post from the busy sphere of parochl.il
duties , and felt unable to annoirnco any defl-
nlto plan of work until he had opportunltj
to study the needs of the great Institution
over which ho had been called to preside.
Hu paid a warm tribute to the ability and
Integrity of his predecessor , BUhop Keano.
who , he said , had been called by the pontiff
to a field of greater honor and wider In-
-uenccs.
Speaking of the scope and catholicity of
the university's teaching , Dr. Conaty said-
"Truth Is one , as Cod Is one , whether It
bo sought for in the moral or scientific order.
There Is no secret In nature which can
offer danger to truth. The church has al
ways bletaed true science and bless 3 It
every day. "
As Dr. Conaty closed ho was greeted with
hearty applause , while the cardinal and other
l.'Igh churchmen extended warm personal
congratulations. The new rector proceeded

he received the long line of guests who were
anxious to grasp his hand and express their

waited on Speaker Reed and presented a pe
tition of 203 members of the houao asking
that tlmo bo given for the consideration
cf twenty-two bills on the house calendar
providing for public buildings In various
parts of the country. This committee pointed
out the necessity for these bulMlnga , and
alil it was evident a majority of the house
desired their consideration. Speaker Reed
"V'eJ limn If they were aware that the
government was running behind In the matter -
tor of revenue ct tint rate of $58,000,000 , It
was a question of the government to nice ,
and pay Its obligations. The comrr.Cttoe re
plied that the bills did not appropriate a
dollar , but only fixed the maximum of cos'
of the buildings , the appropriations being
left In the hands of the future congresses.
Mr. Reed said that ho did not approve of
this method of mortgaging the revenue of
the government , to which the committee rc-
p''led that they could not mortgage what did
not exist , and thought the subject of making
appropriations could bo safely left to future
congresses. The committee came away feel
ing that It wca not a cheerful outlook.

Despite ofilclal denials , the Impression In
political and diplomatic circles and In the
Madrid prcs.3 Is that the government has In
structed the Spanish representative at Wash
ington to Inform the American government ,
Itilto unofficially , how far It Is disposed tu
go In colonial reforms , Including tariff and
commercial concessions to the United States.
The Imprctslorr Is also that President
Cleveland and Secretary Olnoy are now dls-
pcsod to leave the settlement of the Cuban
question and all American claims arising
out of the Cuban Insurrection to their auc-
rcasors , Messrs. McKlnloy and Sherman.
Spain will , nevertheless , carry out the re

IIHIST SIIC3AH INDUSTRY OUTLOOK.
Factory nt Fremont Thought to He
Certain , v lth Two OthcrM 1'rolinlilr.
Prof. IH. II. Nicholson , from the State uni
versity , was In the city lost night. The pro
fessor lias devoted so much of his tlmo to
the sugar beet problem In this state of late
years that the future history of the Industry
will hardly be complete without mention of
Ills name In that connection. He was there
fore asked last night If he was still hopeful
for the beet sugar Industry In this state. Ho
replied :
"I devoted a great many years to the ad
vocacy of the cultivation of sugar beets In
Nebraska before the project WOT undertaken
at all , and will not abandon the work now
that success la almost In eight. I am ( Irmly
of the belief that It Is destined to be the
greatest Industry In the state. Like a great
many other things , It requires tlmo to de
velop , and In these times the people dUUko
to devote time to anything. They want
something which will bring Immediate re
sults ,
"I think wo will sec some new factories In
the state before long possibly before an
other year. I think that at Fremont the
project Is already to pick. They have been
aiding beets there since 1S90 , and are cer-
; aln of sufficient acreage to warrant the IB-
tablUhmcnt of a factory. Nellgh Is also In
a fair way to have a factory , and also West
[ 'oint. The only contingency upon which
lie establishment of a factory rcits Is the
cultivation of a sufficient acreage of beets to
supply It. For that reason In the localities
where the farmciu have been educated In beet
culture the sentiment In laver of a factory
3 the strongest , and there Is where they arc
more apt to secure such an Industry.
"The capital for the factories at the points
mentioned will be furnished by Interests out
side of the state. Thcro Is not enough Idle
capital In Nebraska for It to be profitably
invested In such an enterprise. No , I don't
icllovo the Oxnarda will put another factory
n the state for a while yet , although I un-
lertsand they have organized what they call
their construction department.
"Tho masse cultc proccra of reducing the
beet to raw sugar Is a success so far as It
; ocs. Its future practicability depefldj en
tirely upon the Invention of . : omo method
of preserving the raw sugar for a coiuldcra-
lilo period. The lie ; of the ma&c cultc
process la that small factories shall bo oa-
.abllslied In numerous localities to bo opera-
led during the beet season , the raw sugar to
bo shipped to a central rcflneiy. It would be
necessary to.tore It somewhere for a time
if enough was to be secured to run the rc-
Ineiy all the year ns proposed. If It Is
stored , then It must be so treated that It will
{ cop , for raw augar ferments very rapidly.
I think some method of overcoming that
llniculty will be found before long. I think
t could bo worked out at the university If
wo had the money to use for the cxpcnae ;
jut we have so many calls upon our funds
.hat this aeen-o to be out cf the question at
he present time. However , It will bo found
jy some one some time , and then the masse
culto Idea will be of practicable use and a
valuable acquisition to the beet sugar In
dustry. "
