' ' Land Bill Rejected. ' ' This was suspension day and the speaker recognised Mr. Bates (Pa,), who moved, the passage, nnder suspension of the rules, of a bill to provide for the "better separation and utilisation of public and private lands' within the limits of railroad land grants Id the arid region." - ' Mr. Bates explained, that th .'bill was recommended by the Interior depart ment,' and permitted the secretary ot the Interior to exchange arid, aqd semi-arid It permitted the secretary of the Interior, be said, to exchange arid and semi-arid lands within the limits, of rallroaC and wagon grants for public lands- of equal, value In order to assemble public and pri vate lands In mote compact bodies so as to permit them to be advantageously used. Mr. Jones (Wash.) protested vigorously against the consideration ot such an Im portant ' measure under suspension of the rules. He declared ' that the amount of land Involved was from 60,000,000 to 70,000, 000 acres. No man Could tell exactly how much land was Involved. The proposition, he said, was to pass with twenty minutes' debate a bill affecting one-fifth of the pub lic domain of the United States.
