SENATE AGREES TO ADJOURN

'ItiiiK
LINCOLN, March 25. (Special.) In tho
senate today several Important matters
were up for consideration, probably the
j most Interesting event being tho action in
I concurring lu tho roport of the committee
j on adjournment, submitted last week, which
! fixes Thursday of this week as the final
day of the session. The report was adopted
by a voto of HI to 14, which was something
of a surprise to tho members who bavo
been contending that the report would not
bo adopted and 'that adjournment, would
not take place until some, time next week.
Tills action will, neeessit'ato tbo hardest
kind nt norlr during the balance of tho
week, owing to tho fact that enough Im
portant legislation yet remnlns unfinished
to keep tho legislature busy day and night
for more than a week yet. Tho approprlu
tton bills hae to go, and nn effort will he
made to get tho redisricting hills passed,
but asldo frqm these measures, It Is safo
to say that all other bills stand little chance
of passing both houses.
t tbo request of Ooyerncr Dietrich, who
Is determined that the clerk of the supreni"
court shall not be u Mowed to retain tho
enormous fees which will be paid Into hli)
office during the next, few years, a bill was
Introduced in tho senate this morning, the
object of which Is to place the clerk on
a salary. The bill makes it the clerk's
duty to collect tho fees and turn them Into
tho state treasury, his only compensation
being $1,500 per year, the amount fixed by
law. Tho bill was accompanied by the fol
lowing message from the governor:
I herewith present a bill, which I re
spectfully request bn Introduced and con
sidered, which provides for tho collection
of fees of the supreme court und the pay
ment of tlio samn into the state treasury.
On thu lowest possible estimate the salary
expense alone of the supreme court dur
ing the next two years will aggregato $7K,
Outi. Other expenses Incident thereto will
swell the amount to at least $1)0,000.
Hlcli tirnfl for thf Clerk.
The foes of tho court for the next two
years. I um reliably Informed, will aggre
gato $50,000. Under tho present practice not
ono dollar of this $50,000 will go to relieve
thu taxpayers, but every cent uf It will go
Into tho pockets of the elerk of said court.
Manifestly It Is unjust that the taxpayers
of this statu should bo exposed to such
burdens when relief may be afforded them
by passing a law lequlrlng the payment uf
these fees Into the state treusuiy
TJio fee system Is pernicious and In a
largo degreo lu statcfuud national affairs
has been abolished, 'ii this Instance It re
sults In oliii subordinate otllcer receiving
mure for his services than the combined
salaries of all three Judges of the court In
which ho Is clerk, together with the salar
ies of governor, auditor of public nrcounts,
state treasurer, land Commissioner and sec
retary of state. It Is nothing Hliort uf an
outrage and travesty im Justice that such
should obtain.
In behalf if the taxpayers of Nebraska
I appeal in your honorable body to enact
such legislation as will turn fills' money
Into tho state treasury. Tho constitution
tlxcs his sa'ury at Jl,5 pur year and ho has
no more right to retain the fees of the court
than the state treasurer has the taxes nnd
Interest received by him, or the secretary
in Hiiiie mm iiuiiiinr uie ires receiven ny
them. That su;li a thing has been donu
In the nust Is tin nrinuncnt In its favor, but
rumor noes ii empnusue mo injustice
thereof and make it all the more necessary

slonal reapportionment bill, which had
been inadu u special order for 2 o'clock,
was the tlrst business taken up at tho aft
eruoou session. Senator Martin moved to
strike Seward and York counties out of
the First district, replacing them with Cass
and Saunders, which was agreed to. The
next change uuggested was by Senator
Ilaldrlge, who wanted to tuko Washington
out of tho Third and place It In tho Second
with Douglas and Snrpy, whore It Is ai
tho preient time, This brought forth
protest from Senator Crounse. He was of
tho opinion that Washington should be
given a chance by placing It In some other
district. It had been In the samo district
with Douglas for a long time nnd the most
It ever received at a congressional conven
tlon was n teller. This thing of tying a
county up with Douglas In a congressional
district was something which should bo
passed around, but, upon a vote being taken
the motion of Uildrlge was carried, which
leaves tho Second district uudo up of
Dougtai, Wusblngtoa and Sarpy. York
county was placed In tho Fourth district
and Htiffaln was taken out of the Sixth and
dropped over Into tho fusion Fifth, much
to the gratification of Senator Miller of
nuffalo, who was presiding over the meet
ing. Tho fact was evident, that the bill was
being badly mixed tip, so a motion was
made that the committee arise upon prog
ress and ask leave to sit ngaln, which was
agreed to.
Ilnlr fur l'lnnl Adjournment,
Thu hour of 3 o'clock having arrived, the
chair announced that the report of the
committee on adjournment, which bad been
mado a special order, would be taken up.
Nearly every, member of tho senate made
some remarks on the question, the repub
licans urging the necessity of remaining
hero until tho Important legislation hns
been disposed of and It wan urged that
this could not be done It the legislature
adopted the committee's report and ad
journed on Thursday. After considerable
discussion had been Indulged lu the report
of the committee was adopted, n number
of republicans voting with the fusion Ists,
who voted as a body for an early adjourn
ment, regardless of whether tho work of
tho body was nnlshed or not.
Tho vote on tho question of adopting the
report of the committee, naming Thursday
as tho day of final adjournment, was as
follows:

WASHINGTON. March 25. The answer of
the British government expressing Its In
ability to accept the Hay-Pauncefoto treaty
In the form .amended by tho United States
senato was made public today. It Is In tho
form of a communication from Lord Lans
downe, British minister of foreign affairs,
to Lord Paunccfoto and asks the latter to
rend tho dispatch to the secretary of state
and to leave a copy In his hands,
Lord Lansdowne begins by showing thot
there was no desire on the part of tho
British government to change tho Clnyton-
Bulwer treaty. Hut somo of Its provisions,
he says, bad been regarded with disfavor
by tho government of tho United States
and in tho president's message of Decem
ber, 1808, it was urged that the nntlonnl
policy called mora Imperatively than ever
for the "control" of the projected highway
by the government of the United States.
ord Paunccfoto made Inquiry of tho sec
retary of state as to this attitude of the
president, the result being summarized by
ord Lansdowne as follows;
"In reply, the views of tho United States
government were very frankly nnd openly
explained. You were most emphatically
assured that the president hnd no Inten
tion whatever of Ignoring the Clayton-
Ilulwcr convention nnd that ho would loy-
Ily observe treaty stipulations. Hut In
view of tho strong national feeling In favor
of the construction of a Ntcnragua canal
and of the Improbability of the work being
accomplished by prlvato enterprise, tho
united ctates go eminent wns prepared to
undertako It themselves upon obtaining
tho necessary po.wera from congress. For
that purpose, however, they must endeavor,
by friendly negotiations, to obtain the con
sent of (lieat Britain to such a modltlca-
ton of the Clayton-llulwer treaty as. with
out affecting tho 'general principle' therein
declared, would enable the great object In
view to be accomplished for the benefit of
thu commerce of tho world."
SiillHlmry Think II One-Milctl.
Tho result, however, of thu discussions,
ord Lansdowne says, was tho treaty
which Mr. liny hundod to Ixird Paunccfoto
In Jnnuary, 1SH9. Tho British government
was not yet prepared to nccept tho treaty,
as serious difficulties had arisen In seeking
to arrange affairs then pending before the
Joint high commission, nnd Lord Salisbury
"did not see how her majesty's govern
ment could sanction nny convention for
amending the Clayton-llulwer treaty, as
the opinion of this country would hardly
support them in making a concession which
would be wholly to flip henellt of the
United States nt a time when they ap
peared to be so little Inclined to como to a
satisfactory settlement In regard to tho
Aluskan frontier."
Later tho introduction of the Nicaragua!!
canal bill In congress revi'vd attention to
the treaty and It wns accepted, Lord Lans
downo saying-
Her majesty's, government, after due
consideration, determined to accept the
convention unconditionally, as a signal
proof of their friendly disposition and of
their desire not to,lmpedo the execution of
a project declared to be of national Im
portance to tho people of tho United
States.
Lord LaiiHdowne then discusses the rlchl
nf the United StMnii to annul the Clayton-
nuittor treaty, iwying:
The Chiyloii-Bulwer treaty Is nil Inter
national contract 'of tinipiestlonnble valid
ity; a contract which, according to well
established international usage. Ought not
to bo abrogated or modified, save with tho
consent of both the parties lo the con
tract." Lord Lansdowne then considers the sen
ate amendments declaring that tho Cluytou-
Bulwor treaty Is "hereby superseded," op
posing this contention, lie lays most
stress, hnwover, upon the other senate
iniendmcnts. and says they present more
formidable dllTlciiltle.s. On these be sas:
I.iiiiniIiiii lie DInciinhcn A ineililllien In.
The tlrst of them, which reserves to the
United States tho right of taking any meas
ures which It may find necessary to se
cure, by Its own forces, tho defense of the
United States appears to IiIh majesty V
government to involve a distinct departure
from tho principle which has until now
found necoptunee with both governments;
the principle, namely that In time of war
as well as In tlpie of peace the passage
of the canal Is to remulii freu and unim
peded, nnd Is to bo so maintained by tho
power or powers responsible for its con
trol. With this amendment udded to the con
vention, tin: United States would, It Is pre
sumed, bo within their rights, if at any
moment, when It seemed to them that thulr
safety required It, In view of warlike
preparations not yet commenced, but con
templated or supposed to be contemplated
by nnothor power, they resorted to war
like acts In or near th rannl acts clearly
Inconsistent with the neutral character
which lb has ulways been sought to give
It, and which would deny tho free use of
It to the commerce nnd nnvlcs of the
world."
Ho takes lssuu with the proposition that
tho senate amendment is analogous to a
provision of the Suez canal convention and
ho also points out that some of tho articles
of tho Sue, convention seem to huvo es
capod attention, and ho quotes those pro
viding that permanent formication are
prohibited, and for ths dispersion of as
semblages near the canal likely to Inter
fere with Its use.
Proceeding, ho sas: "If the new clause
wero to be added, the obligation to respect
tho neutrality of tho canal In all circum
stances, would also, as far as Great Britain
Is concerned, remain In force; tho obliga
tion of tho United States on tho other
hand would bo essentially modified. Tho
result would bo n one-sided nrrnngement
under which Orcat Britain would be de
barred from any warlike action In or around
the canal, while thu United States would
be nblo to resort to such action to who
ever extent they might deem necessary to
secure their own snfety."
LnilKIIUKI' III1IKC-IMI1 VllKUl-.
Hcspoctlng the contention that thero Is
a specific prohibition In the Hay-Paunce-fotc
treaty against the erection of forti
fications nnd that this would sufficiently
Insure tho free use of the canal, Lord
Lansdowne says this contention Is one
which his mnjesty's government Is quite
unab',0 to admit. After calling attention
to the dangerous vagueness of tho lan
guage employed In the amendment, he
says:
"Kven If it were more precisely worded, It
would bo Impossible to determine what
might bo the uffect If one clause permit
ting defensive measures und another for
bidding fortifications wero allowed to stand
side by side In the convention. To bis
majesty's government' It seems, as I have
already fcild, that the amendment might
be construed as leaving It open to tho
United Slates at any moment, not only If
war existed, but even If It were antici
pate I, to take nny measures, however
stringent or far-reaching, which In their
own Judgment might bo represented as
suitable for the purpose of protecting thdr

Dyspepsia Cure
In speaking of Indigestion, Dr. Lewis srtys: "It Is deplorable
that so many hundreds of thousands of. Americans suffer from
indigestion. It means that tho blood of tho nation is becoming
impure; for undigested food poisons thoblood. Unless a method
is deriscd for overcoming this malady,our race must deteriorate."
Many persons use soda tablets to neutralize fermenting food;
this only makes a chemical receptacle out of the stomach, and
injures its sensitive structures. Others feed on pepsin, which is
better, but not sufficient, for it digests only albuminous foods.
Tho preparation best fitted to relieve and absolutely euro in
digestion is Kodol Dyspepsia Cuhk. It contains every known
dlgcstant and digests every kind of food. Its use Is & common
Bcnso method of treating all stomach troubles, and the results
are always certain.

which the Clayton-Bulwer treaty was based
and which was reaffirmed lu the conven
tion as drafted," '
The third sennte amendment struck out
the provisions Inviting tho adherence of
other powers. As to this, Lord Lnnadowno
snjs:
"Thu nmendment not only rfmnves all
prospect of tho wider guuranty of tho neu
trality of tho cnnnl, but places this coun
try lu a position of marked disadvantage
compared with other powers whlrh would
not be subject to tho self-denying ordi
nance which (Ircnt Britain Is dculred to
nccept. It would follow, wero his majesty's
government to ngree to such nn nrrannn
mciit, that whllrt the United States would
have a treaty right to Intorfero with tho
canal in time of wnr or apprehended war,
nnd while other powers could with a clear
conscience disregard nny of tho restrictions
Imposed by the convention, Great Britain
alone. In splto of her enormous possessions
on the American continent, In spite of tho
extent of her Australian colonics and her
Interests In the cast, would solely be pre
cluded from icsortlng to any such action
or from taking measures to securo her In

Having thus expressed his objections to
each of tho three senate amendments, Lord
Lnnsdowno concluded as follows:
"I request that your excellency will ex
press to the secretary of state the reasons,
ns set forth In this dispatch, why his
majesty's government feel unable to ac

to them by the American ambassador, and
why they prefer, us matters Jtand nt
