The Pacific Railroad.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-The House COM
mittee on Pacific railroads to-day continued
the hearing of arguments on the Texas &
Southern Pacific bills. G. p. Huntington
addressed the committee in answer to Col.
Scots argument made last week. He de-
MED the assertion that the Southern Pacific,
and Central Pacific, were the same thing,
and said they were quite distinct in their or
CARNATIONS and aims, and that when COM
pleted through to the East, the Southern Pa
cifc would compete for the business now
engaged by the Union & Central lines. He
explained that years ago, before any of these
questions had arisen, or were thought
of in the settlement of some
local differences, he and some
of his friends Of the Central had been per-
suaded to go to the help of the Southern
Pacific, which had then about 30 miles of
road III operation, and that finding they
We're compelled to build under the law SO
miles ayear at the Colorado end of the line
and 20 miles at the Western end, he had re-
peatediy offered to Dispose of his entire in
terest in it, andin 1873 did sella controlling
portion of the line between Colorado and
San Francisco to Col. Scott himself, but he
did not fulfil his contract. Since then a
good deal more road had been built, but he
was willing to dispose of it to the United
States or to Col. Scott if he could be
satisfied that it would be used as part of a
direct line to the Gulf and lower Mississippi
cities. Huntington said his friends could
build the line between the Colorado and the
Rio Grande, 600 miles, as cheaply as Col.
SCOTS. and would guarantee to put more
money value into the road from their own
mortgage bonds, than Col. Scott's party
would out of their bonds endorsed by the
government, and to build the road within
five or six years. He offered 10 amend the
bill now i'll committee SO as to allow
the same supervision and restrictions as to
construction and rates by Congress
over the Southern Pacific between
its eastern terminus on the Texas frontier
and several posts in Southern California as
are contained in the Texas Pacific BILL SO as
to place the two offers on an equality, ex-
cept that the former asks no financial aid,
while the latter asks Endorsement at the rate
of $4,000 per mile. He claimed that the
Southern Pacific route across California be-
tween the Yuma and Los Angeles posts was
not only the best as to grades, but also more
directly in the line of through travel and
traffic, and could be made to answer equally
as well to San Diego, as the branch line was
now within 80 miles of the harbor.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-The tariff bill was
to-day submitted by the subcommittee to
the full committee of ways and MEANS who
decided to consider it next Tuesday, Thurs
day and Saturday, and every day thereafter
until it shall take final action.
The committee on Pacific railroads to-day
heard Mr.. Huntington in behalf of the
Southern Pacific railroad, in reply to those
advocating the Texas Pacific railroad.

The package sent from Vernon by mail
was opened in presence of Democratic coun-
sci, and did not contain folly sheet. He
called the attention of the board to the other
package in possession of Secretary Of State
and it was sent for. He also testified
to the refusal of the board to fill the
vacancy according to law from the ranks of
the Democratic party, but could not swear
that Anderson was present when the refusal
was made by Wells. MCGOWAN, from notes
taken during the canvass of the board,
states that Anderson was almost
always present. Anderson especi-
ally opposed the motion of the Democratic
counsel to have their returns compared with
returns received by the board. The main
business was done in secret session, aud that
at the general court. Nobody could gain
admission. McGiven will be called again
tomorrow. Kenner was released yesterday

Terrible Story of Brutality.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-The Secretary of
the Interior has received several affidavits
confrmatory of the statments of witnesses
examined by him Saturday last, showing that
the condition of the Freedman's Hospital
before the recent investigation in the matter
of cruelty, food and care of patients was
vastly improved since the investigation be-
gan. One of them contains statement
showing frightful disregard of the feelings
of patients in connection with the DISPOSE
ton of bodies of patients who have died at
the hospital, the affidavit avowing that the
hospital yard was made common burial
ground for the reception of partially mutt
lated bodies buried in sacks. Details of the
case shows the bodies were exhumed in sight
of patients of the hospital, and all the state
ments in the afidavits are particularly severe

BOSTON SCORCHED.

Furniture Factory and Dwellings De-
stroyed--Loss $2OO.OOO--Families Home
less and Workmen out of Employment.
Boston, Jen. 31.-A fire broke out this
evening in the fifth story of the large six
story brick building, 121 Medford street,
Charlestown district, used for the manufac-
ture of fine furniture, by F. w. Holmes
& Co. The building, $50 feet long
and extending back 200 feet to
the Mystic river, was filled with furniture, q
large amount on the upper stories being
finished. A violent snow storm, with a
strong east wind, delayed the frsmen and the
entire building was soon in flames. Three
alarms, quickly followed by general alarm,
were sounded, and only by great effort
most disastrous confagration was
stayed. At 1880 p. m. the fire was under
control. The factory contents were com
pletely destroyed, together with eight houses.
Some twenty families are homeless, and be-
tween 400 and 500 workmen thrown out of
employment. The details of the loss and
insurance are not yet available. Loss on fac
tory, machinery and stock of furniture esti-
mated at $4,000. Other losses about $780,
600.
AT PHILADELPHIA.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 31.-A fire occurred
this evening at the dry goods commission
house of n. P. s. w. p. Smith, 224 and 226
Chestnut street. Messrs. Smith are agents
for Robt. Patterson & Co.'s Manayunk mills,
and usually carry for them about 1886, 600 in
stock. George Campbell, agent for
Campbell's mills in this city, occupied the
portion of the first floor. All four floors
were well filed with material, the value of
which is estimated from $4,000 to $780,
600. Insurance on II. p. & w. p. Smiths
stock fully covers the loss. Damage of
915,OOO was also done to the stock and build
ing OF Coffin, Artemus & Co., 22O Chestnut
street. In the same building, George Camp
oea' manufacturer of wooden goods lost
$4,000; fully insured. -

A Walk Through. the Democratic Side If
ter adjournment,
Washington Special Jan. 29th) to Chicago
Times.
Thirty minutes after the house adjourned
to-day the president, bundled up in heavy
blue overcoat, carrying a silk hat in his
hand, entered the nearly empty house on the
Democratic side. Webb G. Hayes trotted
demurely at his fathers heels. The Presi-
dent paused when he neared Gen. Ewing
The rag apostle was still at his desk writing.
He shot up as straight as ramrod when he
saw who was near. The great rag man and
the great good man shook hands.
pleasant day. said Ewing
"Hum," said the president.
Webb G. Hayes adjusted his eye glasses,
in his coolest manner, and said nothing.
Gen. Rice, fraud bowler i'll the last Con-
gress, was in front of Ewing. He next made
a lunge for the presidential hand.
"Looks natural here, does it, Mr.. Presi-
dent?' said the ex-fraud bowler.
EYES, said Mr.. Hayes, striking desk in
the front row with his brown kidded hand.
"Here is where I used to sit" He struck it
again as if to say, sBehold it, and think
well over it before going further"
At this a tow-headed lue-jacketed page,
ident with huge yelIow-covered autograph
book. ::Please, sir, your autograph" hs
continued in feeble attempt to appear to
be modest
The President smiled for the first time.
He drew off his brown glove and dashed off,
..Yours truly, r. B. Hayes" to the great Joy
of the small boy.
Gen. Rice laughed pleasantly as the presi-
dent wrote.
"You can't escape the boys"
ssNo," smiled the president, and on he
passed, rapidly pursued by other pages, but
he was seized by newspaper man who was
standing by.
ssHow do you do, Mr.. President? Permit
me to present Mr.. --, of the said
the journalist.
The following intersued "Fine day, Mr..
President"
"Hum.n
The president never talks to newspaper
men, and he observed his rule.
"ELooks natural here, eh, Mr.. President
"Ah, ha," was the reply of the President
who would not commit himself.
"What do You think-b"
"Good evening"" said the president, with
low bow as he passed on.
Webb C. Hayes significantly followed at
his heels. An aged member, seated near the
middle of the aisle on the republican side,
rose up as he saw the presidential party near

House of Representatives.

The West Point Academy bill being pre-
tented, Mr.. Durham explained its provisions.
It appropriated $272,155, being $14,449 less
than last year. The present bill appropri-
ated $l5O,000 for the pay of cadets, which
would not in the least lessen the pay of each
cadet, although it was 81, 900 less than was
appropriated last year. The committee on
appropriations had avoided making any un-
necessary appropriations and in this its first
bill it had endeavored to keep down e1pendi-
lures for the military academy to what
of the institution. he explained there was
ments of civilians to be second ieutenants
exist than could be filed by appointments
from the next graduating class of cadets.
The committee had also recommended Sec
ton providing that when each cadet has
been appointed and matriculated, no other
appointment from the same district shall be
made during the term for which the cadet was
appointed, should a vacancy occur therein for
any other cause than death or physical disa-
bility. That would make members of Con-
gress most careful as to the character of the
young men they selected to go there. The
Secretary of War and Gen. Schofeld, princi-
pal of the academy, approved of that pro-
vision.

An Earth Cave at Dubuque Buries Three
Miners.
DUBUQUE, Jan. 31.-This afternoon shaft
sunk on what is called the Coleman lead, in
the western border of the city, was found to
have caved in on three men. Thomas Olson
and two sons are probably in the
drift, as the excavations are small,
and INF compact clay, and its believed they
must be dead. The shaft is sixty-fve feet
deep, and the coats of the miners were
found at its mouth. Fifty miners are at
work in half hour relays sinking another
shaft close by in the hope of getting the
men out alive. It will take till tomorrow
noon to reach the drift.
