SENATOR IiuAR has an important bill
before Congress to establish an educa-
nonal fund aud apply the proceedS OF
the sale Of public lands to the education
OF the people. The act proposes that
the net proceeds OF the Public land-M-
fee and the Patent-Ohlce, together with
the principal and interest paid by rail
road corporations on credits guaranteed
10 them by the United States, shall be
set apart Tor the education OF the peO-
ple. The funds sO obtained are to be
invested in government bonds, and the
interest and other money available To be
applied for the establishment OF free
schools for children between the ages OF
q and 10 years. The apportionment Tor
Ten wears is To- be based on illiteracy,
aud portion OF the money
may be used to establish normal
schools aud pay teachers wages. The
funds obtained by this bin, II It
becomes law, will be very large. The
receipts from public lands are variable,
running nom Sl67, 900 in 1852, to over
ss,OO0OOO, In 1870, and over S9,OOO,0OO
in 1879. The receipts OF the Patent
Office also vary greatly. They were but
81, T95 net in 1875, and $751; 900 in ISIS.

already, principal and interest, about

TuE Supreme Court ct New York
city rendered decision Of some inter
est on the question oI iost baggage,
last Tuesday. The plaintiff bought
from the New York Central railroad a
through ticket Ia New Orleans 10y a
certain route, and took checks Tor two
valuable trunks. The trunks were
diverted from the proper route, ami,
while passing through Mississippi, met
with an accident and were destroyed.
The plaintiff sued the New York Cen
trail Company for 10000 damages. The
defendant company proved that the
trunks were carried safely over their
road and delivered 10 the next con
Meeting road. The court dismissed the
complaint on the ground that there was
nothing tn show that the baggage mas
ter had authority to check the trunks
beyond the New York Central road,
and that, in checking them through to
New Orleans, he exceeded hisauthority.

WASHINGTON.
Mr.. Hurds Bill Against Transportation
in Sealed Cars.

WASHINGTON, April. N.-The ways and
means committee this morning heard a report
from the subcommittee upon the bill of Mr.,
Hurd, which proposes practically to forbid the
transportation OF goods in sealed cars through
Canada. The report Of the majority of
the subcommittee favored the bill, although
it is said that there was no formal meeting of
the subcommittee upon this subject. The re-
port favored the bill on the ground mainly
that it was just in that the Canadian Govern
States carrying trade, and that the Canadian
tariff is now very oppressive with respect to the
products of this country. The further point
was made that the passage of the bill would do
much to compel the Canadian Government to
modify its tariff. There was prolonged dis
cussion over this subject in committee this
morning. the members from the Northwest
particularly being warmly opposed to the prop
osltion The point of their opposition was that
if the bill was enacted into law it would
greatly injure Northwestern interests, in that it
would practically prevent the shipment of crops
through Canada, and would thus compel ship
pers to use the trunk lines within the United
States exclusively, and thus deprive them of
the advantages of existing competition. The
Western men will strongly oppose the scheme
inside and outside the committee, as they con-
slider that it is in the interests of the Lake
Shore and other United States through routes,
as against the Canada Southern, the Grand
Trunk and the Canada routes generally

The Madison Square II, II uest.

NEW YORK, April 27.-The inquest on the
Madison Square disaster began ,this morning.
Several police officers gave testimony to the
effect that they did not know the building was
unsafe, but had been informed that the art gal
lery walls had shifted. Several inches of
planks had fallen down and general wreck
was impending, and they were asked to come
in and see the gallery. Mr. Mackay, Superin-
tendent of the building stated that the heat
from the gas had caused the walls to crack,
and there had been architects looking at the
building that day who pronounced it SAFE
Salem FL. Wales, treasurer of the Hospital AS
ISOLATION, testified that in the morning he was
informed that there was crack in the wall
and that some plaster had fallen in the art
gallery. In the afternoon he saw crack at
the cornice line six or seven feet long, and at
one point some plaster had fallen off, He no.
ticed nothing to suggest danger, and in the
evening he attended the fair with his family.
He heard nothing more about the matter until
about nine o'clock, when the walls were heard
crashing and the ceiling fell down in the mid
die of the room. There were few people
coming out at the time. Witness was knocked
down and thrown in amongst the music stools
but soon regained his feet and did his best to
avert panic. Up to the day of the disaster
witness had not received the slightest intima-
ton that the building was dangerous.
