Wakhingtov June I The ecnnrb resolution
offered yesterday by M r Edmunds appointing
EdwinK Valentine sageantatarms of thesen
ate was taken up and agreed to an amendment
offered by Mr Harris substituting the name of
Henry W Wall of Tennessee having first been
voted down
Mr Paddock said he had received several tele
prams froifiNebraska in regard to outrages by
Chevcnne Iidians in that state and asked the
chairman of committee on Indian affairs whether
any action was being taken b > that committee
relative to the matter
Mr Dawes had begun to respond to the ques-
tion but on suggestion of Mr Plumb that there
were only a few hours left for the discussions
the silver bill the matter was allowed to go
over till tomorrow
The senate silver bill was then taken up and
Mr Morgan resumed the floor but suggested
that the time of senators in discussing the
amendments after the close of the general
discussion should be extended from five to
ten minutes or fifteen
Mr Jones of Nevada in charge of the bill
thought it might be better as several senators
still desired to speak on the subject to extend
the time for general debate tilt i oclock on
Monday next and he asked the unanimous con-
sent for that proposition
Mr Hoar said lie had no objection but
thought there should be a larger attendance of
senators before unanimous consent was asked
Mr Teller suggested that Mr Morgan should
go on with his speech and said he had no de-
sire to cut off any senator who might wish to ad-
dress the senate on tho bill When tho time
came limitation be had no doubt wonld oe ex
extended
Mr Morgan therefore went on with his re-
marks
His speech was mainly an argument for free
coinage He objected to the proposition to limit
the continuance of the act to ten years
M Aldrich next addressed the senate He
defended the amendmont as reported
by the finance committee to tho house
silver bill and asserted that in-
stead of demonetizing 6iiver the system pro-
posed by tho finance committeo would more ef-
fectually monetize H than tho system now in
force under the law of liTh Gold was today an
universal international money silver was not
Congress could not make it an international
money That had to be done by concurrent
action of all the great countries Until that
action took place there could be no equality be-
tween the two metals That was the fact of ail
facls and it was useless for the senators to en-
deavor to persuade therasehes or others to the
contrary The legislation proposed by the
silver extremists would he said be
disastrous to the business interests of the coun-
try
Mr Stewart was on the floor replying to some
of Mr Aldrichs statements when the presid-
ing officer Mr lngalls called attention to the
agreement that the general debate VA to
close at oclock It was 515
Various propositions were made and
finally it was agreed bv unanimous
consent that tho senate bill should be laid on
the table and the house bill as amended by the
finance committee substituted for it the gen-
eral debate to be extended till 3 oclock on
Monday the session tomorrow being for con-
sideration of bills on the calendar Sir btewrt
then resumed the floor and after further debate
the senate wont into executive session and 60on
after adjourned

Washington June ltTTho house committee
on commerce lias ordered favorable reports on
the bill to make Eagle Pas Tex a port of de-
liver instead of Indianola
The house after the reading of the journal
went into committee of the whole on sundry
civil appropriation bills
The committee on reform In the civil service
which during iho ppscnt session or conrress
conducted an lnestigation into charges filed
against the cml service commission had a
meeting today and finally acreed upon the re-
port which will be presented to the house It is
said it has bevn signed by ull the members of the
committee except tuo Messrs Stone and Ander-
son Chairman Lehlbach of the committee will
present it in the house at the first opportunity
In concluding its report the committee says
With regard to the coudect of the civil service
commissioners in matters submitted to your
commission ue find first that Commissioners
Itoesevclt and Thompson have dischared their
duties with entire fidelity and integrity Sec-
ond that tho official conduct of Commissioner
IiVintm has been characterized by a laxity of
discipline in the administration of affaire of the
commission and is therefore censurable Your
commission will proceed at once to investigate
tb workings of the system and
present a subsequent report when said investi-
gation shall bac been completed together with
a renort of the conclusion We submit the fol
lowing resolution
Itesolv6d that a copy of the report and testi-
mony taken before the select committee on re-
form In civil service in investigation of tho
charges preferred against the United States civil
service commissioner be forwarded to the presi-
dent
After debate and the adoption of some amend-
ments but uithout completing the considera-
tion of tbe bill the committee rose and the
liousc took nTeccss the evening session to be
for consideration of private pension bills
CHICAGO UNION STOCKYARDS
Suit Begun to Frcvent the Consummation of
the Proposed 20000000 Ealeof
the Property
Chicago III June 13 The antici-
pated suit to prevent the consummation
of the proposed S20000000 sale of ibe
Union stockyards and transit com-
pany of Chicago to an English
syndicate was commenced betore
Judge Tuley this afternoon
Decidedly sensational charges are made
hi the bill mid tlio court is asked to re-
move the pieseut olhcers of the big cor-
poration appoint a receiver and issue an
injunction restraining the proposed
Issue of bonds and tho salo of
the plant and stock Tho complainant
In the bill is Frank It Raker a dealer at
tho stockyatds and tho owner of
over 150 shares of the capital
stock of the company Mr linker
makes the defendants Nathaniel
Thaver of Boston the companys presi-
dent John It Sliermnn general mana-
ger George It Williams secretary and

tary and six of the best known railroad
magnates in the United States John Xew

pany to which u mortgage was to bo
Riven nnd Win IIVanderbiltCornelius
Vanderbilt John It Iloxieof Texas and
James II Ashler who with President
Thayer and Mntiager Sherman own a
majority of the stock The bill charges
that it is with no legitimate aud lawful
motive that tbe defendants are seeking
to carry out the scheme of
selling the property but that on the con-
trary they are inspired with the sole in-
tention of selling it for a little over half
its valuo That they then propose to de-
preciate tho value of the
stock aud run tho property
down in value until it reached a mini-
mum then when the small stockholders
are frozen out the manipulators will buy
the plant and good will in it for
a mere sons Mr Daker de
clared that the compauys stpgk
is intrinsically worth S200 a shar
whereas tbe proposed purchase
price Is 150 of which only
the par value 8100 is cash Ho
then answers tho question himself
A further objection U hat tb e London
contract company and the Central trust
company are alien corporations over
which tbe courts here can exercise no
jurisdiction It is said that being a

It is not improbable that the agitation

up considerable discussion of the matter

prevented are to be found
The ordinance against tho burning of

We have just read and read again
Gustave Cooks the railroad and corpor-
ation candidates opening campaign
speech delivered at KyleTexas ontho
7th inst and just as might have been
expected his whole argument is based
upon the assumption that the adoption
or the amendment to the constitution
the oreation of a commission and tbe
election of Hon J S Hogg governor of
Texas would be a confiscation of every
railroad now In the state its
property and every other company
and corporation and the suppression
and prevention of any further rail-
road progress In the state This seems
to be the assumption upon which bis
whole argument is based He fails to
suggest or in any way explain why tho
railroads mako so muob discrimination
in freight rates in favor of peo-
ple of other states and against
our own people He falls
to offer any remedy to correct tbe evlU
and abuses now practiced by railroads
aud corporations against tbe people of
our state
Mr Cook does not reply to nny of Mr
Hoggs speeches nor try to refute his
arguments nor to contradict his
statements he does not deny anything
said or done by Mr Hogg but be seems
to think that the people in Northwest
Texas are lighting the commission and
olamorlng for railroads as their only bopo
of salvation and pretends to be in sym-
pathy with us The truth is Northwest
Texas and every other part of the state
desire railroads but tbev also de-
sire them controlled Wo will do
as much for the encouragement
of tho building of railroads in this sec-
tion or the state at in any other but we
realize the very great danger in too much
capital concentrated in tbe hands of a
few unbridled aqd uncontrolled and we
want tbe commission or other remedy to
protect the interest of the people North-
west Texas does not believe
that the establishment o f a
commission will check the progress
of tho country nor hinder tbe Lru ilding of
railroads The peoplo of the stafe are
not yet ready to succumb to the diotates
of a few railroad and corporation attor-
neys composing tbo seven county com-
bine who meet and of their own voli-
tion and in response to the demands of
Gould Huntington and corporation mag-
nates nominate and bring forward a man
in total sympathy with them and against
the tJTeat masses and labor and produc-
ing classes of tbo people and their inter-
est Hogg Is tbe peoples choice their
can diduto no Has shown him-
self to be a man worthy
of their confidence and suffrages
wfcp looks to their interest and Is not
afraid to dobis dutyin office or out of it
and the West and tbe Eastern and South-
ern part of this state it Is firmly believed
will see that Hogg Is nominated on
tho first ballot at tbe San Antonio
convention in August Mr > Hoggs
privato and official record is before bis
opponents for investigation from his
oradle to tbe present timo in all the va-
rious positions he has held and he has
publicly challenged an investigation of
the samebut bis opponents have thus far
failed to find anything in him or his rec-
ord to condemn save and except
that be looks to tbe Interest of the state
and people and proteots tbe
same West Texas does not
want Hall neither as governor
nor any other position nny mpre Wheeler
may bo n good man and a homo man
but in thi3 crisis tho West prefers Mr
Hogg Let the people of the state who
feel an interest in this matter
attend the primaries and county
conventions and send their dele-
gations to San Antonio instructed
for J S Hogg for governor nnd there-
by secure his ominntion Messrs Cook
Hnll and Wheeler nro good menbut
under tho issues presented the people
want a man who can and docstvgtand
squarely on tbe issue and not ona ivho
attempts to straddle the fence
If there is anything the people of
Texas and especially West Texas
want moro thnn Hogg it
is more Hogg for governor of this
state She wants no man who will pander
to corporations and monied Influences
but a man whose sterling honesty and
bravery Is such that he can not be ap-
proached nor swerved from his official
duty but who Mhews to the llno fet the
obips fall wheJ they may Such a
man is believed to bo J 8 Hogg

Judge A T Watts in his Weatherford
speech is reported to have said that bo
was prepared to say that since 1884 not a
single railroad In Texas has paid running
expenses By being prepared to say
he must havo meant prepared to
prove and It suoh be the case hi3
evidence Is most respectfully solicited
Concerning rnilroad Investments and
the profits thereon prior to 1888 we are
not posted but since that time they have
yielded a large profit on the actual
amount invested in the roadbeds and
equipment The Texas and Facilio
being tbe most important in
Texas and passing over a greater
diversity of country may be taken as a
fair illustration From tho annual re-
port of this company to its stockholders
for tho year ending December 31 18S9
the same being signed by Gould nnd
others tbe net earnings for tbe road for
1889 wero 18448C074 or 1232 per
mile See report above page 18
Placing tbe valuation of this road at
SCS33 per mile the average valuation
as shown by their own rendition in tbe
comptroller8 report it is clearly proven
that tbe income is a little moro
than 18 per cent attor paying all
expenses some of wbioh are most ex-
travagant Yet Judge Watts says the
roads do not even pay running ex-
penses Partie desiring a copy of
this report may obtain a copy from Henry
Clews Co New York
It Is not claimed as Judge Watts in-
sinuates that tho commission If
adopted will develop a single mine or
put one extra dollar in circulation but
it is claimed that the circulation will
bo greatest In the stato because the
roads will not carry so much money out
to build up others and favored points
In conclusion we submit that if the
railroads in Texas were ever plaood in
hands of receivers it was because they
failed to pay not interest on the actual
Investment nnd worth of the roads but
upon bonds in many cases fraudulently
issued If tbe roads suffered thereby It
was their own fault they deserve
no sympathy aud should not
be allowed to take advan-
tage of their own wrong Then tho road
seeks equity Let it come with clean
hands and do equity
2 If railroads do not pay In Texas
why do they continue building
3 If tbe roads do not fear the com-
mission as Judgo Watts says why do
they fight it A S Hawkins
The Fopos Presentiment
Dublin June 13 The Irish Catholio
states that the pope in replying to the
congratulations of visitors atthe Vatican
expressed himself as strongly of
the belief that great punish-
ment was impending on society
for its disregard for and indifference
to the church Tho Lord
he said will como no longer with a
sweet and peaceful face but with nn
angry ono to strike and purify his
church I am neither a prophet or the
on of a prophet but 1 feel in my heart
tbe presentiment of a sea of evil is about
to beat against tho rock on which the
church Is founded and will leave noth-
ing and nothing will be seen on tba hor-
izon but tbe crest of anger of God
Prayer will not suffice to appease the
Almighty
