KENNEDY HAS LIVELY TIME
Battle Royal with Mann of Illinois Over
Bill for Relief of Joseph Crow. !
MEASURE FINALLY PASSES THE HOUSE
Bnliroinnilttee Ordered to Draft Land
Lease Bill W hlch la to He Appli
cable Only' to the Matt
of fhranks.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON. March 2.-(Speclnl Tele
gram.) Congressman Kennedy today en
gaged In a battle royal with HcprcaenM
tivc Mann of Illinois over Kennedy's bill ,
appropriating $l.fi'0 to Joseph Crow, er.- 1
postmaster of Omaha, In order to
straighten out his account with the govern
ment growing out of the Olscn emlielile-
nient.
By reason of collecting a $J,'iO fine and
$l,0ut bond the government Is ahead n
the affair $971. This bill came up today, be
ing claims day, and met with decided op
position from the Illinois congressman.
Mr. Mann contended that the postmaster
should be held absolutely responsible for
the defalcation. 'Mr. Kennedy argued that
the postmaster did not select the stamp
clerk and could not discharge him; th-tt
the bond given by the clerk was to tho
government and not to the postmuster.
Mr. Mann asserted that the rule of tho
Omaha postofflce was that the stamp clerk
was only entitled to $7 In stamps at -any
one time, and that If the rule had been
enforced the defalcation would not have
occurred. Mr. Kennedy read from an In
spector's report that the rule referred to
by Mr. Mann had reference to the Kansas
City postofflce, and that it wns the inspec
tor's opinion had a simllur rule been
adopted in Omaha It might have prevented
the defalcation. Ho further Insisted that
an the government was ahead nearly $l,Co0
that It should not make u prpllt out of
the postmnster's misfortune. After this
lively exchange, Mr. Kennedy showing
himself an exceedingly ready debater, the
bill was passed.
, Dividing Judicial District.
Representative Hepburn today Introduced
a bill to amend section 1 of an act to cre
ate the southern division of the southern
Judicial district of Iowa, as follows: "That
the counties of Lucas, Clarke. I'nlon,
Adair, Adams, Fremont, Page. Taylor,
Ringgold, Decatur and Wayne shall con
stitute the southern division, and a term of
the circuit and district court for this dis
trict shall be held in said division when
created at Creston, L'nlon county, on the
fourth Tuesday in March and the first
Tuesday In November of euch year. The
bill provides thai till causes now pending in
the southern division of the southern Judi
cial district from Appanoose county shall
be transferred to the southern Judicial dis
trict of Iowa at Keokuk, in I.ce county.
Ijind for Indian gehnnl.
Senator Kitlredge today offered an
amendment to the Indian bill providing for
an appropriation of $h,050 for the purchase
of l.'W acres of land and springs and water
right for a permanent water supply for
the Indian school at Rapid City, S. D.
Lease Bill for Nebraska.
Messrs. C. H. Cornell of Valentine and
W. H. Reynolds presented arguments this
morning before the public lands committee
of the house In behalf of Cornell's land
leasing bill. As a result of the arguments
heard today, on motion of Congressman
Murtin, a subcommittee was appointed to
draft a land leasing measure solely ap
plicable to Nebraska, the consensus of
opinion of the meiu'oers being that such a
measure stood a fair chance of getting
through cc ngress, but that a general laud
leasing measure had not a ghost of a show
to become a law at this time. The follow
ing subcommittee wns appointed: Lacey,
Iowa; Martin, South Dakota; McCarthy,
Nebraska; Rucker, Missouri. They were
ordered to make a report at the earliest
possible time, the next meeting of the com
mittee being on next Wednesday. There is
a feeling that the Lacey bill, adapted to
the needs of Nebraska, would be more ac
ceptable than any of the five measures now
pending, and it Is expected that Major
Lacey's measure will be UBed as a basis for
the new bill. ,
Humphrey Favors Mneadani Rond,
Quartermaster General Humphrey today
sent to the mtliiray affnlrs committee of the
house a favorable report on Congressman
Kennedy's bill for macadamizing the mili
tary boulevard between Fort Crook and the
southern limits of South Omaha. General
Humphrey says that this work is a mili
tary necessity.
Minor Matters at Capital.
The geographical survey reports the min
eral products of Nebraska last year
amounted to $l,Soo,000, clay products and
limestone leading the list.
Congressman Mondell'a bill appropriating
to Edward F. Stable of Cheyenne,
Wyo., for expenses in connection with the
survey of the boundary between Wyomlrjg
and South Dakota, passed the house today.
Anlce DeMoss of Omeha has been granted
a widow's pension of pt from September 1,
19o4, on the solicitation of Congressman
Kennedy. She was also allowed the ac
crued pension due her hushnndr J. W.
DeMons, who was killed on a railroad near
Monmouth. 111., in 1!M. The widow was un
able to satisfy the department as to proof
of death. Through Congressman Kennedy,
however, who roinniunkatwl with the cor
oner of Douglas county, proof was secured
and tho pension issued today.

wniihl proceed In an orderly and legal way,
und not In a way that would create greater
clls than It w Mild eliminate, .
Messrs. Military. Patterson and Newiands
also found legal difficulties In accepting the
prohibition put upon the holders of stock
In railroad companies, although professing
sympathy with the puriose of the resolu
tion. Mr. Newiands charged that the great cor
porations practically control all the coal
lands In Pennsylvania nnd West Virginia,
and snld they were rapidly extending their
operations In Colorado, I'tah, New Mexico
and other states and territories.
Mr. Teller took exception to some of his
statements, declaring that there was no
monopoly of the coal lands In Colorado,
and he defended the rights of the people of
the west to control their own resources.
He criticised the too great extension of the
forest reservation system and said It was
done In pursuance of "the Insane notion
that the government must hold the lands
for the unborn."
Mr. I.n Kollelte'a Second Speech.
A somewhat general discussion of forest
reserves follow d and at Its dose Mr.
Lfl-Follette again took the floor to reply to
the speeches germane to his amendment.
He said that nil the senators who had
spoken had professed sympathy with his
motive, but had contended that his pro
vision went too far In Its application to the
stockholders In railroads.
"What will It avail," he asked. "If the
railroads are cut out, and their stockhold
ers are allowed to own the coal lands?"
He suld that experience for thirty years
In Pennsylvania und for twenty years in
West Virginia had shown that such a
course might result in the control of the
mines by the roads. Appeals had been
made to him to nccept a modification of
the amendment, but he could not see his
way clear to do so, for his experience had
taught him that It was better to go down
to defeat in supiior'. of a righteous meas
ure than to compromise It nway.
Mr. LaFollette said he did not desire to
pose as a prophet, but he would make the
prediction that unless congress addressed
Itself presently to dealing with the ques
tion of the control of the public utilities
in a way to prevent their further control
by centralized capital the country would
soon be compelled to face the problem
of government ownership In a way that
would not be put aside.
Mr. I.aFollette admitted the probability
of the supreme court's holding some of
the provisions us unconstitutional, but he
added that he was anxious to at least
permit the court an opportunity to pass
on the questions.
Mr. Hacon said that Mr. LaFolletle's ob
ject could be accomplished by a slight
change and suggested a provision pro
hibiting any persons from having an in
terest In the coal lands for the benefit of
a railroad.
Mr. Knox usserted that the amendment
would accomplish the confiscation of the
property of Innocent owners In coal mines,
and Mr. llacon replied that his amendment
of the amendment would meet that diffi
culty. 10lls of Itallrond Control.
Mr. Heyburu spoke. In general terms of
the evil of permitting the railrouds to enter
Into other lines of business than that of
common carriers. He charged that the
ownership of thi coal mines of L'tah by
the railroad companies was having the
effect of standing In the way of the de
velopment of coal mines of Idaho- and
other western slates.
Mr. Spooner suggested filial all the diffi
culties of the situation might be overcome
by accepting the house leasing system,
making the leases nonassignable.
Mr. Heyburn would not agree that the
substitution would accomplish the result
and he predicted that without restraint
the railroads would soon control the coal
business of Indian Territory.
After the debate had proceeded for about
four hour Mr. McCumber said that it
had become apparent to him that the sen
ate did not at this time desire to provide
for the sale of the coal lands. He there,
fore moved that the committee amend
ment be laid on the table. The motion pre
vailed by a vote of 38 to 7, Senators Ha eon.
Rlackburn. Clay. Dubois. LaFollette, Mili
tary nnd Peltus voting in the negative.
The effect of the vote was to lay on the
table not only the committee amendment,
but the LaFollette amendment , and ull
amendments suggested to tho section and
to leave the house provision standing. Mr.
Clark ( Wyo. I moved to amend the house
provision ho hs to make it read as follows:
That all coal and asplmlt lands, whether
leased or unli aseci. shall lie reserved .'oni
sale under this act until the existing
leases for coal ind asphalt lands shall
have expired or until such time as may be
otherwise provider! by law.
After several other amendments were
made the bill was passed.
The S'-nate then, at S:&! p. in., went into
executive session and at 5:4o p. in. ad
adjourned until Monday. .
PR1VATK CLAIMS

Twenty-File Hills Appropriation"
Small Amounts Passed.
WASHINGTON. March 2. The firsts-private
claims session of the Fifty-ninth con
gress occupied the house today, twenty-five
bills iKiug wsd. All these measures car
tied small amount for the relief of private
individuals who are precluded under the
laws from obtaining their rights. Opposi
tion to many of the bills was made by Mr,
Mann (111.) and Mr. Shackleford (Mo ).
Thus Is accounted for the small number
of measures considered. The committee
which reported the bills failed In oqly one
instance In securing the favorable report
'n the committee of the whole necessary for
consideration in the house. Five bills fa
vorably considered in the committee failed
to pass the house by reason of a failure of
a quorum.
