TheDedd Lock.

WASHINGTON, March 3l.-No sign yet of
the Senate dead lock breaking, but the session
will be continued until 1t does break, and
the hundreds of pending nominations be
acted upon. Several messages from the
President lie unopened on the Vice Presidents
desk.
Attorney General Macveagh's retirement
from the cabinet Is again
the subject of speculation. 1t is claimed he
has exerted himself to defeat the confirmation
of both Chandler and Robertson, and the Pres
ident's friends represent that he is disposed
to take MacVeagh's reported Interference very
seriously. 1t is also stated that the nomina.
tions which are said to give offense to Sena-
ators Conkling and Platt, were made with the
knowledge of these gentlemen, and rot with
out consulting them, as maintained. It is not
likely the name of either Chandler or Robert
son will be withdrawn, the opposition to
these appointments being apparently to con-
inal intention not to Be
overruled after selections of officers had been
made and names sent to the Senate for con.
firmation, unless something is brought for
ward to convince him of the appointees' unfit
ness, of which he did not know when the nom-
nations were made. Appropos of this will
ingness to reconsider the appointment for other
than political reasons, it is mentioned that
certain citizens of Buffalo have made so strong
a case against Tyler, on the ground of his un.
fitness for the position of collector, that his
name will probably be Withdrawn.
It is understood the President has decided
to recall Gen. Longstreet, minister to Turkey,
and appoint him United States marshal for
Georgia. His nomination to the latter place
will probably be sent to the Senate in day or
two

ROCKFORD, H., March 81. Yesterday even

Morse from the office of the Chicago & Iowa
road, and took possession, claiming to have
obtained the right from the receiver of the
road by virtue of leas, newly executed.
They also ran an engine across the tracks and
prevented travel. Morse subsequently got
possession of the Office but they still hold the
yards. The Chicago s. Iowa company have
torn up considerable amount of track and
DESTROYED culverts to prevent the Milwaukee
company getting into the city. There is much

[Chicago Tribune.

lChlcago lrlDune.J
The managers of the Chicago, Milwaukee &
st. Paul railway company informed Tribune
reporter yesterday that tho contracts for their
Council Bluffs extension from Marion, hye
miles west Of Cedar Rapids, to Council Bluffs,
distance of 270 miles, have all been awarded,
and work will at once be be begun and tho ex.
tension pushed to an early completion. 1t 10
expected 10 have the line in running order by
next fall. The new road will run through the
counties of Benton, Tama, Polk, Dallas,
Guthrie, Audubon, Shelby, and Pottawatta-
mie, and leaves Des Moines a short distance to

essary to remove 100000 cubic yards of
earth, use 100000 feet Of lumber, and 500, 900
feet of piling. A large number of bridges
are also required, and the contract for their
construction has also been awarded. The
three principal bridges will be little north Of
Dubuque, at or north of Omaha, and at Run.
ming Water. For the building OF each one Of
these bridges S5Oo,ooo in bonds have been
authorized, and will enable the company to
build them in the most substantial and i'm
proved manner. The equipment of the new
Council Bluffs extension will be per 100 miles,
five engines, two passenger cars, 12O box and
stock cars, and twenty fiat cars. This will
make very large total, and will enable the
company to compete with any OF
the older lines, both for freight
and passenger traffic. The managers
Of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul claim
that with the completion of this new road they
will have almost an air line from Chicago to
Omaha, and shorter by two miles than the
Chicago & Northwestern, which is now the
shortest line between Chicago and Council
Bluffs. The length of the line from Chicago
to Council Bluffs will be 4s6 miles.
The new bridge across the Mississippi at
Sabula, and by which the Council Bluffs line
crosses the Mississippi, was completed yester
day, and the Cedar Rapids trains of the Mil
waukee & st. Paul will hereaftrr pass over the
new bridge.
The construction of this line to Council
Bluffs will give Chicago five direct roads to
that point-the Burlington & Quincy, the
Northwestern, the Rock Island, the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st.. Paul, and the Wabash. Un.
der ordinary circumstances it would be hard
to find business enough for so many roads,
and as far as the Pacific through tariff from
Omaha is concerned, the proportions of the
various roads will probably be small, but they
will all have plenty of local business, as they
run through the most fertile portion of Iowa,
the very garden of America
The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul has also
inst awarded the contract for completing the
unfinished portion of the Hastings s. Dakots
road the coming summer, which will make G
! stretch of 125 miles OF completed road on thai
division of the Milwaukee & st. Paul. 1t vii
