TIRE FORT ST. PHILIP CANAL
The House Committee on Railroads and
Canals have agreed to report adversely on the
Fort st, Philip Canal scheme, on the ground
that tho surveys Us submitted are not satstac-
tory, nd they are lacking in the Information that
ought to DO before Congress on q proposition OF
the sort. A new survey is to bo made, but it
will not probably reach Congress this session !,

THE M'CnARY BILL

THE N'CnAKT BILL.
WASHINGTON, p. c., Feb. 27.-Slnce the Com
nittee agreed to the McCrary bill and tho &C
companying report, there has been time for
reflection, which has had the effect to rather
weaken its hold upon Congressman who were at
first disposed to accept it as feasible plan for
the solution OF the cheap transportation prcb-
lem. The bill provides, it will DO remembered,
for Board OF nino Commissioners, who are to
have control, IN effect, Of the 67,000
miles OF railroad in this country.
This will only haro the effect to create another
bureau or department here in Washington, and
if the duties Of the Board as dovolyed upon
them BY the bill faithfully performed, it will
require clerical force OF such numbers as will
make the new department second only, 1t is
tho ught, to the Treasury Department. This
will eerve to make the machinery OF the Govern
me Mt more complicated than ever before while
it is seriously doubted whether it will answer at
Ill the purposes it is intended to servo.
THE OBJECT TO BE REACHED
is transportation at low rates, and that can only
safely be attained in this country By healthy,
active competition. Legislation that will pre-
vent combinations Of any sort among railroads
will accomplish this purpose. and that TaIhou.
Committee have the floor, and the discussion Of
the bill, which promises to be protractcd. will
begin on next Tuesday. It will not be onc-
sided performance by any means, az the oppo-
neats to the bill, the railroad men, and those
who oppose bureaucracy, are numerous, able,
and eager for the fray, for which they are BY no
means unprePared-

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 27.-The question of

rcsenting 9100, ,00O, 600 of capital and employing
over 50 600 bands. The burden Of the consumers
lies in the fact TINT they cannot use American
steel, owing to its not being reliable in furnish
ing an edge to edge-too1s, and also in the home
manufactured article costing less than the for
eign one selling at 151a cents, and tho other at

tend protection is not necessary, and that they arc
merely compelled by tue present tariff to pay

would. They however do not demand the en-
tire repeal Of the present duties,
but such reduction as ehall bo at any rate re-
