Bill Is is becoming as famous as Bill
Jones, who shot at Guiteau, Bill Pat.
terson, who was struck by the moon,
Bill Nye, the greatest of 1.-THE Forty
Liars" or Bill Corlett, who fires of
the oratorical pyrotechnics for the
railroad company and does the heavy
bulldozing for them.
William l3 came up in the committee
of the whole in council yesterday morn
ing. VIM. had a big patch or an
amendment tackled to his coat tail, and
this amused his railroad friend William
very much. The amendment was
simply to repeal the entire legislation
on the subject of railroad subsidies and
franchises. This amendment vas put
OF by committee Nc. 5, simply because,
under the rules of council, the bill
having been once recommitted, it could
not come up again until an amendment
had been offered by the committee. But
the Laramie county delegation wasn't
bound to vote for the amendment
olLIpl1 DCCdu5O ~ was OhClGu. 4ut1
desired merely to comply with the
rules and get the bill into the council
legally.
But the other William, the enemy of
William the thirteenth, ''got fooled"
On this point. With all the Ingenious
ness and innocence of which he is
capable, and animated by the single
burning desire of his heart, namely, to
benefit ''the dear peopls" of Laramie
county, by relieving them of an OPP
pressive burden, he moved that section
one of viii the 18th be stricken out in
consonance with the recommendation
of the committee. OF course VIM. the
first expected his motion to carry and
thus settle the vexed railroad question.
But to his great surprise and disgust
no, he's got past that point--the motion
failed. Then William the first rallied
against the members from Laramie
county, and charged them with incon-
sistency. He then went into an essay
on finance that would outshine Sher-
man, Peter Cooper or Brick Pomeroy.
Mr.. Sturgis explained the position of
the friends of bill 10, saying that they
were not compelled to vote for the
amendments of the committee las
stated above) and set the friends of the
measure right.

Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 15.-The star
route case opened to-day with Fred
E. Cleary, postmaster Of Sidney, ON the
stand. BE refused to testify lest he
might eliminate himself. The prose-
cution spent a great part of the FORE
noon arguing to compel Cleary to tes-
tify. The court oYerruled the attempt
as Cleary was n of the con~spirators
indicted. The testimony of persons
who travelled the Sidney and Deadwood
route at the time vas covered by the
indictments, and also Of the Deadwood
postmaster we're taken. 1t is thought
the case will go to the jury next Satur-
day.

Omaha, Feb. 15.--Judge Dundy, pre-
siding over the U. s. Court at Lincoln,
Nebraska, where the star route trial Of
Corbin and Iddings had been in pro-
gress for several days, this morning
directed the jury 10 return 4 verdict Of
acquittal as to both defendants, which
was accordingly done.
The government had completed the
examination Of its witnesses, the de-
fence not having offered any testimony
and the prosecution had utterly failed
to show any wrong doing by the &C
cused. Tue verdict gives universal
satisfaction, as the defendants are well
known and respected citizens.

London, Feb. 15.-In the house of
commons, Dixie, under secretary of
foreign affairs, denied that the French
troops have been prepared for embark
alton to Egypt. The government still
adheres to the European concert as the
e to adjust foreign difficulties.
He also denied the existence of a revolt
at Herat. In regard to the Jews in
Russia, all the precedents showed that
English interference in international
affairs would meet with a rebuff, and
do more harm than good.

trip to the Spanish Hollow country, be-
tween the Deshutes and John Day rivers.
He is very much pleased with the country.
They have nice valley there about sixty
miles long and extending back from the

his brother-in- law, Mr.. A. B. Woody, for
merly marshal of this city and who was well
and favorsbly known in and about Corvallis
as good jolly fellow. Mr.. Woody has a
fine ranch there and is well pleased with the
country. Mr.. Elliott brought with him
some different varieties of vegetables raised
about ten miles back from the Co1umbia
river in the high rolling land, among which
was large onion l64 inches in circumfer.
