CANADIAN ROADS NOT YET IN UNION.

A cable dispatch from London yesterday
gave The Observer the authority the statement
that such expression of opinion had been obtained
from the largest stockholders of the Great Western
Railroad of Canada to insure the prevention OF in
furious competition by close alliance with the Grand
Trunk Of Canada through a reversal Of the past
policy of the directors of the Great Western. Il
could be learned IN this city yesterday that any de-
cded change had recently taken place in the status OF
the relations between the two Canadian roads. 1t is
understood that any event the reported change in the
policy of Western will result in tbana
pooling arrangement with the Grand Trunk At differs
en times this matter has been talked about between the
two companies. but it has heretofore been found mpos
sble TO reconcile the conflicting claims OF the rival lines
Former negotiations for consolidation OF the two
companies were long ago virtually abandoned One OF
the motives which have influenced the Great Westerns
managers against pooling combination with the Grand
Trunk the fear that the would not
compensate the Great Western for the traffic which that
road probably wod be shorn OF by its Vanderbilt
nections in the event of its being carried out

partly demolished. No arrests have been made.
An explosive shell was thrown into house near

In the House of Commons this evening, Mr.. Glad

THE GARFIELD MEMORIAL HOSPITAL.

Try TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNEl
w,suyGToN. March 27-AnOther unsuccesstni
effort was made in the House to-day to pass the
hill IN ipcorporate the Garfield Memorial Hospital
The debate on the proposition was very animated
and # was opposed. among Others by Mr.. butter
worth of Ohio who declared that for one he dd not
want to see the name and memory of Garfield USED
A cloak for an enterprise the promoters OF Which
might hereafter come before Congress and IN the
none of the murdered President demand money
from the National Treasury 10 carry 1t on.
There appeared to exist III the minds OF several OF
the opponents of the bill a suspicion that 1t had
been nstigated by the promoters OF an old scheme
40 draw money from the Treasury under the
nreence of relieving the unfortunate, and that the
excellent names in the bill had been obtained with
ont their owners understanding the real purpose 1or
which the measure was designed. Whether well or
illfounded this suspicion proved strong objection
to the bill.
Another powerful reason against 1t In the mnds
of many members was the fact that Washington is
already sufficiently provided with hospital accom-
modations for all who may require tnem and 1t was
nrced also that there was no reason why a special
charter should be granted in this case while the
general incorporation law is so liberal.
After n rather heated discussion the previous
question was ordered on the bill ana on an amend
,nent offered bv Mr. Wilson, of West Virginia, pro-
yidnp that the first application TO Congress Tor an
anpropratOn to aid the hospital should operate as
a repea of the act of Incorporation Alter the pre-
vious question had been ordered the olil was; Oh
motion of Mr.. Holman, TecOmmltted to the Com
,nittee on the District of Columbia, Win lnstruc-
fjons TO report amendment to the general lnc0r-
poraton act OF tins District so as to provide that the

this evening debate was resumed on the proposed
rules of Parliamentary procedure Mr.. Nc
Carthy, Home Rule member for Long

sTENOGRAPHER HAYES'S REMOVAL.
Inv TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.

WASHINGTON, March 27.-The indications
ore that the summary removal by Speaker Keller
OF stenographer Hayes will be the subject
OF public discussion in the House wlthln
few days. 1t is asserted by the friends OF
AR Uaves that the action of the Speaker in this case
Is nnnrecedented Official stenogaphers to committees
were first appointed in 1865, and since then, until last
Thursday only one vacancy had occurred and that was
caused by resignation In 1873 the contract system OF
nrinng the debates abolished, and each Dranch OF
Congress assumed control Of its own reports Ihe re-
nortr who had been in the employ of the contractors
ON The Globe WERE by resolution OF the House dated
March g 1873, designated officers OF the House"
Only one vacancy has since occurred, and that was
caused by death
In regard TO the cause of Mr. Hayess removal various
stories are told but there appears TO be no doubt that
the main reason was a political one. In conversation
with TRIBUNE correspondent to-day Iowa Congress
man said The fact is that both the official stenogra-
,hers TO committees Democrats, and only one OF
The five official reporters Of debates is Republican Now
this is not fair arrangement. We hold that where Re
nubcans who equally competent can be found they
bond be appointed at least ODeha the places Of this
sort. I know Mr.. Dawson, the new appointee, very
well and he is flrt-class man, fully competent for the
position He is sound Republican and was brave
