This conference preceded the meet ing between Mr. Perkins and Mr. Belmont, at which It was decided not to issue the Morgan-Belmont statements until lata at flight. Edwin Hawley, who had not figured n the Louisville ft Nashville matter be fore the previous day, was also among tbe lata .callers at Morgan ft Co. Haw-ley's Part Not Clear. Mr. Hawley's Interest In tbe situation has not been made clear, but he vouchsafed the atatement earlier In the day that be was a large holder of Louisville ft Nash ville stock, and .a firm believer In Its fu ture prosperity.

PAYNE FACTION IS HOPEFUL Advocates of Twenty Per Cent Redac tion Believe Their Cuban Bill Will Pass. WASHINGTON, April 16. With the close of the ' CUban reciprocity debate in the house today, tbe leaders announced tbat all danger of the bill being weighted down with undesirable amendments was over and that they felt assured the bill would pass in the shape In which It came from the committee. At the bill in Its preaent forui hi SUM to command three-fourths of the vote of each aide of the bouse. Its passage was certain If It successfully passed the stage when amendments could be offered. Ths only cause of anxiety heretofore has been the possibility that enough republic ans would join wtth the democrats to over rule the chair and tack ento the bill an amendment to abolish the differential on refined sugar. All the energies of tbs lead ers have been directed, therefore, to bring ing pressure to bear on the recalcitrant re publicans to Indues them to refrain from aiding thia plan, and this evening at the close ot tbe session of tbe house It was sn aeunced that the enttre republican delega tions from Michigan and California,' who constitute ths bead and front ot the oppo sition, had agreed not to vote to override the ruling ot the chair. Mr. Watson ot Indiana, who Is aleo act as ths 'whip .for the majority, does not believe over a doren republicans at the out side will join the democrats on this propo sition. It would require more than twenty republican votes to place on the bill the amendment which might endanger its ulti mate paassge, as several democrats. It It understood, also have declared their inten tion to stand by tbe ruling of the chair. An unsuccessful effort was made again to day by Mr. Payne to secure an agreement to limit the general debate. When tbe house adjourned . today there remained thirty-five members who desire to speak.

KNOX ON THE BEEF TRUST Attorney General Replies to Letter Written to Him by Congressman Bay. THOROUGH INVESTIGATION IS ORDERED Answer Is So Satisfactory that the Home Judiciary Committee De cides to Take No Farther Action at Preaent. . ' WASHINGTON, April 15. A letter from Attorney Oeneral Knox relative to the so called beef truBt was made public today by Representative Ray of New York, chair man of the house committee on judiciary. In view of the attorney general's letter, the judiciary committee ' decided without di vision to recommend that the resolution of Representative Thayer of Massachusetts, asking the attorney general what Steps bo had taken against the beef trust, He on the table. The' attorney general's letter Is glved In Chairman Ray's report on the reso lution. !-'. The report quotes Mr. Ray's letter, dated April 12, to the attorney general, in which the following questions are asked: 1. Has your attention been called to the matter alleged In house resolution 203, a copy of which is annexed? ;s. Have yc lave you been requested to take any official action In the matter? S. Have vou anv evidence of tha axlatenca of such a combination . r Tbs attorney general la a letter' ot ths same data answers ths questions, follows:, 1. It has not, except so far a -it is a matter of general notoriety, k' I. I huve not, ' ' ' I. None that could be classed 'as legal evidence. . . . , Continuing tha letter says ; , It is proper, I think, however, to add that, owing to the positive, official, re peated and circumstantial nature of the allegation that the law is being violated, I directed some time ago a thorough investi gation to be made by one of the district attorneys of the United States for the purpose of ascertaining whether in fact such combination existed and whether. If so, its operations were in violation, of any federal statute. Continuing ths report says: i It Is apparent from thla correspondence that there la no necessity for the adoption of the resolution. By reason of the wide spread notoriety of the matter, the attor ney general of the United States has al ready ordered a . thorough Investigation. There Is no doubt he will perform his duty and prosecute all offenders, if offenders there be. - - 1 It Is evident that he should not be re quired to give in detail the steps already taken, as this would be to forewarn thou who are violating the law and enable them to conceal evidence. t ' ' It is also evident that this officer Cannot state whether or not there, has been an Infringement of the law, as no evidence haa been presented to him upon which to base an opinion, and no intelligent opinion can be given aa to whether or not there haa been an infringement of ths law until the facts are fully ascertained. It Is also evident that no legal steps can bs tsken toward a prosecution of the parties violating the law until a thorough investi gation haa been made. In short, the letter of ths attorney general above quoted an swers the resolution as fully at.lt can be or ought to be at this time. WAITING ON SUPREME COURT Taxpayers Defer Actlea la Regard to Conatr and State As sessment. After conference between several of ths leading property owners of ths city and W. H. Green, president of the Real Estate ex change, it was decided to do nothing In the way of forcing ' county assessors to assess at full value of the property until after the supreme court haa passed upon the report of Referee Ryan. This action waa In har mony with ths advice of Attorney Mcintosh, who, when tbs matter, was called to his at tention, said: 'The supreme court may not follow the advice of ths referee. There is a decision handed down by that court. In which some of tbs present members concurred, which says that when ths majority ot property haa been assessed at 25 per cent of its value a taxpayer may compel boards ot equalisation to assess his property at that rats. This gives judicial recognition to tbs fact that in Nebraska assessments may be legally mads at leas than full value, and it this bs still trus action on ths part of tax payers to tores tbs assessors to assess at full valus might bs unwarranted."

TEST ON EXCLUSION TODAY Final Debate is Fraught with Series of Heated Expressions, SHARP FIGHT WILL BE MADE TO LAST Senator Turner Accuses Republicans of Draaalnst Politics In Contest Spooner Stoutly Resents tha Assertion. WASHINGTON, April 15. The debate on the Chinese exclusion bill wat practically concluded today and voting on the bill and amendments will begin at 1 o'clock tomor row. By general consent a vote was taken today on two important amendments, of fered by Mr. Fairbanks of Indisna, striking out the definition as to Chinese students and teachers and they were agreed to with out division. These changes were made with a view to reconciling some ot the opposition to the measure, which has been directed against the rigid restrictions on students and teachers, and tbe necessary inconveniences this would Impose on the educated Chinese classes coming ts this country. The debate was participated In by Sena tors Heitfeld of Idaho, Penrose of Penn sylvania and Turner of Washington, in favor ot the bill, and Senator Prltcbard of North Carolina and Spooner ot Wisconsin In opposition. rolltlcs Creep In. Mr. Turner made the assertion that poll tics bad crept Into the discussion and that most of the members of the majority were opposed to tne bill. This brought out a sharp rejoinder from Mr. Spooner, who maintained that politics had not figured in the discussion, and tbat the oppo-'tlon to the present bill was due entirely its conflict with the treaty end not because of any opposition to Chinese exclusion, which was an established doctrine of tbs government. Mr. Hansbrough, from the committee on publfc lands, today reported the house bill legalizing the manual of surveying in structions of the general land office and the bill was passed. Tbe senate then resumed consideration of the Chinese exclusion bill. There was a mass of telegrams from the cities of the Pacific coast, urging the passage of the Piatt substitute re-enacting the Geary law. Many of tbe dispatches expressed the opinion that the Geary law had been amply sufficient for'the protection ot American interests ami -that the pend ing bill la too severe. Not the Voice of People. Mr. Perkins of California submitted a large number of dispatches supporting the bill. One of the telegrams was from ths mayor nnd Board of Supervisors, or legis lative body of San Francisco, declaring that the opposition of the Chamber of Com merce did not represent the opposition ot the people of -the Pacific coast, who ssked the passage of the senate' bill. Mr. Penrose spoke In support of the bill. He maintained that osr commercial ' ex. paoslon In the Pacific would in no way be retarded by the exclusion of a non asslmllatlve people like the Chinese. Our commerce had steadily increased during the period of exclusion, and in 1897, when ths regulations were most rigid,, it .was double the amount of the period preoedlng exclu sion, Mr. Turner of Washington, answering the contention of Mr. Foraker, declared theirs was nothing In the "bill inconsistent with our treaty. The bill had no politics in It when it came from the committee. Mr. Turner said- It was a measure for 4hB protection ot the people of our land. Says Corporations Oppose It. From the time it was reported, however, sentiment had been crystallizing on the re publican side of the chamber until the measure hardly had a friend on that stde save among the mombers of the committee. Politics had crept In, the senator declared. In spite .of the effort to keep it out. Tbe powerful corporations had been beard from: the "business interests" had been heard from. The great transcontinental railroads and the steamship companies were opposed to exolusloa, and, in his Judgment, their opposition had taken the form of the pro posed Substitute for ths extension of the present law. Mr. Spooner of Wisconsin expressed dis satisfaction with the pending bill and with ths substitute. He waa astonished to bsar from tbe Wash ington senator (Mr. Turner) an imputation of unworthy motives on the part of tbe tenatort on tbe republican side. Mr. Tur ner disclaimed any attempt 'to impute un worthy motives to senators. Throws Blame on Turner. Not a brsatb ot party division occurred on this measure, said Mr. Spooner, until the senator from Washington bad interjected it into the discussion, evidently with tbe be lief that when bs left the republican party all its virtue departed with him. The re publican party needed no defense, said Mr. Spooner, on, the charge tbat It opposed ef fective Chinese exclusion. Strike from the statute books what ths party had enacted for the protection of the American ware earner and but little would remain. The senator declared that ths time would never come when our peole would admit tbe Chinese, no matter what steamshln com pany or what railroad company desired it. The exclusion of the Chinese waa a definite and established policy, and he and his as sociates on the republican side of the cham ber did not yield to the aenator from Wash ington in the determination to keen the Chinese from our shores. But Mr. Spooner said be believed in keeping treaty obligations, and either there should be exclusion consistent with our treaty obligations, or else, if necessity re quired, there should be an abrogation of that treaty.

A severe dust storm In southern Minnesota on April 10 and 11 un covered much of the sown grain. Warmth and moisture are much needed for germina tion. Oat seeding is well advanced in the states of the Missouri valley but has made less favorable progress in tbe Ohio valley. The early sown is looking well In, Oklahoma, Kansas and tbe southern portions of Ne braska and Missouri, but germination has been slow In tbe Ohio valley and the crop has sustained some Injury by frosts In Indiana. Cotton planting Is well advanced to the westward of the Mississippi and tbe early planted it coming up to satisfactory stands In Texas. Eastward ot the Mississippi planting, although late, is well under way over the southern portions of Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina. But little planting has as yet been dohe in Missis sippi. Except in North Carolina tobacco plants are generally plentiful and healthful, al though small. The fruit outlook, except for peaches In some districts, is promising. Frosts have caused injury to peaches in Kentucky, Ten nessee and the Carollnas. ORDERS AN INQUIRY (Continued from First Page.) 4- man being for any reason favored or shielded.
