WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE report was
generally circulated to-day that Judge Davis,
of Illinois, would resign his seat in the Sen
ate. A Western Associated Press reporter OBJ
tanned an interview with Senator Davis, who

and he said he had no idea of reslgning, and
had not thought of such thing.

The petition recently filed in the United
States court of claims by the Union Pacific
railroad company, representing that up to and
including Dec. 81, 1871, claims for Transports
ton of mails have been adjusted upon the
terms prescribed by the postoffice department,
which terms afforded compensation to the COM
pany considerably less than the amount charged
TO and paid by private persons for like services
during the same period. The petition also cited
in detail other services rendered for which
proper compensation had not been received by
the company. The aggregate amount due
the railroad, according to the Fetition, is ST.
141,721. The case was argued before the
court of claims to-day. The case Of the petit
tioner was rested upon the sixth section OF the
act of Congress, approved July LIST, 1862,
which act constitutes the charter OF the COM
pany.

The Mormon RueStiOn.

WASHINGTON, May 11.-One of the Presi-
dents personal friends is authority for the
statement that the President is quite anxious,
so soon as there is any let-up of existing pres
sure, to consider some. practical and speedy
plan of dealing with the Mormon question,
saws the Washington correspondent of the
New York Herald. Ike recent arri val in New
York Of some hundreds of Mormon immi-
grants, the departure from the same port of
forty Mormon missionaries, with view of
Increasing the flood of polygamous emigra-
ton, have intensified in his mind the
desire expressed in his inaugural.
While respecting to the uttermost the consci-
entious convictions and religious scruples of
every citizen to prohibit all criminal practice,
especially of that class which destroys the
family relations and endangers social order, he
is equally firm in his opinion that no ecclesi-
astical organization can safely be permitted to
usurp in the smallest degree the functions and
powers of the national government. Recent
attacks BY Mormon church leaders on Gov.
Murray, Of Utah, who is personal friend of
the President, and upon Gen. M. NJ. Bane, of
Illinois, because of their anti-polygamy senti-
his mind. The denomination of the latter
gentleman as receiver of public lands in
Utah is tied up in the Senate on charges pre-
ferred by Delegate Cannon. Among sug-
gested plans, that proposed by Governor
Fuller, of Utah, of issuing a Presidential
proclamation against the practice of polyga-
my, is receiving attention. A. G.. Campbell,
the anti-polygamy delegate from that Ter
ritory, lhas written strong letter favoring
it, Meanwhile Senator Logan, to whom the
President contided the championship of his
anti-polygamy policy in the Senate, is actively
considering what legislation can best be had
to meet the desired end.

The Effects of Bad Liquor.

Hardly day passes but the doings at
the police court vividly illustrate the vice
and wretchedness of those who are slaves
to the damning curse of rum. Aside
from the every day run of simple drunks,
a case was tried at this tribunal yesterday
which requires more than passing men
ton. At o'clock well dressed and in
telligent looking young man named
James McCaun was arraigned on the
charge of drunk and disorderly. His
haggard and unkempt appearance indi-
Gated that he had been on terrible de-
bauch.
The complainant was young woman
named Lottie Jackson. The latter resides
on Fifth street between jackson and Sib-
ley streets. Tuesday night young Nc
Cam reeled from bagnio on Fifth street
fred with drink and burning with the
worst passions. His brain was on fire and
he was full of mischief. In this condi-
ton he wildly commenced to stone a
house occupied by Mrs. jackson and her
daughter Lottie. The women became
frightened and expostulated. He then
pushed the door in, and entered the house.
In so doing he pushed the old lady over.
He then approached the girl and slap
ned her in the face. Further mischief
was prevented by Officer DeCorsey, who
locked the man up. Yesterday he was
the sorriest man in ST. Paul. His excuse
was that he was in liquor. He was fined
$50 or so days, and went to the quay.

terror relative to the construction of the
Northern Pacific railroad through the Crow
Indian reservation, the secretary held that
while no unnecessary opposition to the con.
templated surveys in aid of the reservation
should be interposed by the department, yet in
order to avoid any hostile acts or unfriendlly
feelings on part Of said Indians toward agents
or employees of the company, he deemed it
advisable the Indian agent at said Crow
agencyl should make known to the Indians
the purpose for which said preliminary sur
veys are to be made and should assure the
Indians the lands necessary for right of way
granted by Congress will not be taken till
after agreement therefor has been
entered into between the Indians
and the United States, and the Indians
have fairly consented for the same. The Sec
retary gave instructions to have the views ex-
pressed in the decision carried into operation.
He recognizes at present simply the right of
the railroad company to make preliminary
surveys in order to determine whether it will
construct its lines south of the Yellowstone
through said reservation.

MdtheicS' Case.

WASHINGTON, May 11.-About two
hours of the executive session were
devoted to tedious discussion of questions
of propriety and precedent, relative 10
the proposed removal of the injunction Of
secrecy from the whole or part of the proceed
ings on the Chinese treaties 1t resulted in
reconsideration of the recent vote by which
authority was given for the publication of the
speech of Senator Hoar, but the whole subject
then dropped. The latter part of the session
was occupied with debate on the nomination
of ex-senator Mathews to be associate justice
of the supreme court, which was reported q
few days ago from the judiciary committee
adversely Its consideration, which was only
partially completed this afternoon, will be re-
sumed tomorrow.
Senator's Edmunds and Bayard both spoke
against the confirmation of Matthews. Sena
tor Edgerton also spoke briefly to the same
effect, insisting that he is a stranger to the
circuit to which he would as supreme
Judge be assigned, and that the people of that
circuit want a judge who belongs to it and is
familiar to the bench and bar. Sherman put
a few questions to the opponent of Matthews
in order to reply to the points made against
him. Don Cameron is working with all his
might for Matthews. The friends of Mat
thews, inside and outside the Senate,
still claim he will be confirmed, and this is the
Judgment of some of his opponents. There is
q report that Bayard's speech had a marked ef-
feet with the Democrats, but workers for
Matthews say it only made two votes doubt
full. 1t is expected to get through and reach
a vote on Matthews tomorrow, and then a
motion will be made to adjourn till Monday.
