TEXAS PACIFIC RAILWAY.

TEXAS PACIFIC RAILWAY.
WASHINGTON, May 2.-Senator Johnston in
troduced bill amendatory of and in supple
nentary to the act to aid in the construction
of the Texas Pacific railroad. 1t authorizes
the company to extend its line from its present
Western terminus to Ell Paso there to unite
with the Southern Pacific railway. The lands
granted to the former are transferred to and
vested in the latter, extending along its portion
of the road East. The company is required to
complete its portion of the road within six
wears. A provision is also made for other rail
WAYS to unite with these roads at Ell Paso, the
object being to form complete line to the Pa
cific from the Gulf and South Atlantic States.
Senator Edmunds said this bill was inn
portant to the public, attention ought to be
drawn to its provisions. 1t involved not only
a grant of power to the Texas Pacific railway
by name but it included four or five separate
grants of power to railroads in Texas and Lou
isiana for the construction of railroads from
one point in State to another point In the
same State. This raised serious constitution
al question. He hoped the committee to
which the bill should be referred would care
fully consider it as it proposed to give millions
He thought it had heretofore been declared by
the gentlemen on the Democratic side and so
arranged in their legislative action, that there
were to be no more subsidies, and yet in a
time of public distress and at called session

eide and sustained by the influential Senator
from Virginia, the passage of which would sad
die on the treasury untold and unmeasured
liabilities, The bill was referred to the COM
,nittee on railroads.
KELLOGG'S SEAT.
The resolution of the committee on privi-
lepes and elections to investigate the claim of
Spofford to Kellogg's seat was taken up.
Senator Hoar offered substitute declaring
the action of the Senate in seating Kellogg
final and conclusive. Without disposing Of
the matter consideration was resumed of the
! hill to prevent the introduction into the
Tinted States of contagious or infectious dis
eases.
CONTAGIOUS DISEASES.
Senator Garland made speech to show the
constitutional power to pass the bill and the
necessity for doing SO. Something he says
mrst he done. The yellow fever was no ordi
nary calamity to get rid Of 1t would require
twenty years for the South to recover what II
lost by the calamity last yesr.

suspicious discovery at Lake Pha1en.
The citizens residing in the immediate
neighborhood of Lake Phalen were thrown into
a fever of excitement, yesterday forenoon, by
the discovery of a girl baby in one of the
marshes adjoining the lake. The appearances
of the infant indicated that it had died shortly
after birth, the impression of some
being that it was stlll-born
child, while few suspected
foul treatment, there being no outward evil
dence however, to sustain the latter theory.
The child was encased in an ordinary store or
cracker box, and with the exception Of band
of flannel around its waist, was entirely desti-
tute of clothing. The news of the discovery
was rapidly circulated around the neighbor-
hood, and inquiry was rife concerning the
child's parentage, but up to last night its un-
natural mother had not been identified.
A young man named Henry Reiter reported
the discovery to Coroner Stein, who at once
proceeded to Lake Phalen, returning last even
ing with the body of the unfortunate waif.
The remains of the infant were turned over to
Undertaken Gross, who will have them decentlv
inferred in Oakland cemetry to-day.

WASHINGTON, May 2.-The Senate confirmed
David s. Hoag postmaster of Minneapolis, KS
The Senate rejected the nomination of Thos.
Mason to be collector of customs, Bangor, Me-,
vice E. L. Fox, whose commission has expired.
This is the second time the Senate has refused
to consent to Collector Fox's displacement, the
previous nomination and that of Mason to-day
being alike rejected unanimously upon the
ground that the present incumbent has served
faithfully, and his displacement would be ex-
tremely discourteous to Senator Hamlin.

JUSTICE TO DEFRAUDED SOLDIERS.
The bill introduced by Senator Wallace to
authorize the payment of loans for arrears of
pay and bounty was referred to the military
committee. 1t provides that the widows and
minor heirs of deceased Union soldiers who
have been defrauded of bounty and arrears of
pay due them by law, by means IF forgeries
perpetrated by their attorney, shall, when such
negligence on the part of claimants, be paid
the amounts equitably due them.
INDIAN TERRITORY INVASION.
The principal matter of consideration at the
cabinet session to-day was the threatened in
vasion of the Indian Territory by whites.
Later information received by the secretary of
the interior indicates that the movement is
more formidable than first stated, parties being
formed in various portions Of the country. It
was determined this invasion should be pre-
vented as far as practicable.
INTERNAL REVENUE.
Receipts from internal revenue for ten
months of the present fiscal year, ending April
3Oth, were $S9,O24,ssO. Last year for the same
period they were $s9, 5s5,254, a decrease of
$56,041. During April the receipts fell off
81, 228, OS4, or more than double the decrease
for the entire ten months. Since the first in
slant the sale of stamps have very largely in
creased and there is every prospect that the re-
ceipts of the next two months will put large
balance to the credit of the present year as
compared with that of the preceding, notwith-
standing the reduction of tax.

THE TARIFF DEBATE.

BERLIN, May 2.-The reichstag to-day COM
menced the tariff debate. Bismarck declared
it was necessary to make the empire financially
independent, and to remove the inequality on
amounts of contributions of various states.
He did not desire a larger income than was
necessary to meet the expenditures of the en-
pire. He believed that indirect taxes were the
kind most easily borne, and in proof of this
view pointed to the examples Of Russia and
France. Owing, he said, to the burdens on
landed property in Germany, the production of
corn was more heavily taxed than its importa-
ton. Germany had become refuge for the
reception of over production of foreign coun-
tries, and required moderately protective du-
ties. Since the great lowering of the tariff she
had been bleeding to death. The question was
one altogether apart from party feeling. The
removal of uncertainty with regard to the
commercial policy was paramount necessity.
It would be better to reject the bill promptly
than allow it to drag on. Herr Delbrueck OPP
posed the bill, entering into a long technical
argument. The debate was then adjourned.

PROTECTIONISTs REBUFFED.

PARIS, May 2.-Delegations from ffty-eight

urging negotiations be entered into for con-

after voting upon the general tariff. Minister
Girard replied he and the government especial
ly desired the adoption of the tariff in the
form in which it was presented the chamber
of deputies, and if the chamber of commerce
tried to influence the senate and chamber of
deputies to vote their requirements, he should
resign the Office. The delegates retired much
disappointed.
President Grevy, replying to the protection
ist deputation, merely assured them that the
interests of the country and commerce would
not be sacrificed. The subcommittee on the
tariff decided to take into consideration the
proposal to raise the duty on cotton so per
cent.
