THERE is good deal of gossip in
legislative circles in regard to the at
tack Of Senator Van Wyck on the
Judiciary Committee of the Senate
to-day. The Senator's arrangement
of the course OF the committee in de-
Gliding to postpone action on the Pa
cific Railway bills until next session
is variously commented upon. 1t is
commended by a good many and con-
demned by others. The secret of the
action of the committee lies in a visit
of Charles Francis Adams, Jr., a
short time ago and the information
which he gave. Adams had a long
interview with the committee and
finally promised that if the Senate
would defeat the bills imposing rigid
restrictions on the Pacific Railroads
and compelling them to pay more
rapidly their Indebtedness to the
government he would guarantee that
the roads in which he was interested
would set aside certain sum for a
sinking fund to pay the debt claimed
by the government. He further pre-
scented a statement to show that the
financial condition Of the Union Pa
cific Company, of which he has lately
been made President, is not so bad as
represented. He implored the COM
mittee not to take action, and they
finally decided to let the matter go
over to next session. 1t was know
ledge of this that led Senator Van
Wyck to ask that the bill amending
the Thurman act be referred to the
Committee on Railroads, instead of
he Judiciary.

THURSDAY. JUNE o6

Sendte-The legislative bill was nro-
ceeded with, the question being on the
amendment proposed by the senate an
preparation committee to strike ont the
clause permitting distilleries masbino
ten bushels or less grain per day TO be
run without storekeepers, and insertino
instead provision amending the revis7
ed statutes so as to FORBID collectors
from hereafter approving the bonds of
grain diS5illers the survey of whose dis
tllleries shall be for a less capacity than
ten bushels Of grain per day, and to for
bid, under penalties, distillation of a less
daily quantity than that. A point of
order being raised that the part recon-
mended for insertion was new legisla-
ton, and therefore obnoxious to the rule
forbidding such legislation in appropria-
tlop bills, the chair sustained the point
OF order and the new clause recommends
ed was not adopted. The committees
recommendation to strike out the house
clause was, however, agreed to.

The Ruined City in Arizona.
Boston Journal,

The ruined cliff city discovered in
Arizona last summer occupied the
sides of a canyon which has been
christened Walnut canyon. It is an
immense assure IN the earth, with
nothing above the general level of
the country to indicate its existence to
the traveller till he stands almost upon
the sides of it's PERCEPTIONS brink.
The sides have been quilted by storms
and torrents, leaving shallow, cave
like places OF great length at different
heights, along the bottom Of which,
when the ledge furnishes a suffice nj
area, dwellings in groups or singly
were built The village was about
three-quarters of a naile in length,
and consisted of a single row of
houses, the common rear wall being
tie living rock, while the sides ard
fronts were of large square stones laid
III clay. A narrow street or path ex-
tended along the front. Similar vii
lagos extended along the canyon for
a distance of five miles. Although
many domestic implements were
found, nothing was discovered which
indicated the character of TIE people
who once inhabited them. There

TELEPHONE TEStE.
Conversation Carried on a Distance OF
Twelve Hundred Miles.
Cincinnati Enquirer.

Cincinnati Enquirer.
The telephone has become such a
necessary part Of the business mach1n-
cry of the world that any improve
ments tending to. its more perfect
operation are watched in their de-
velopments with interest. One of
the great faults with telephones has
been the induction between wires on
different circuits near each other, by
which persons talking over different
lines could hear each other.
Yesterday afternoon test Of new
transmitter was made over the wires
of the Baltimore and Ohio Telegraph
Company. An instrument was placed
In the operating-room and one in the
cellar. These instruments were cola-
nected by a wire forming a circuit
from the instrument in the operating
room to Chillicothe and back to the
instrument in the cellar. This made
q distance of almost 200 miles. Over
this length Of line the voice of a per-
son talking could be heard very dis
tinctly, even when speaking in so low
a tone that another person standing
Il few feet from the person talking
could not hear what was said. A line
was next formed to Grafton, Va, a
distance of 500 miles. and then TO
Baltimore, Md. a distance of 1900
miles, and then there was no per-
ceptible change in the distinctness
with which the voice could be heard
or the words understood. Tt was
very severe test, yet it was demon
strated that with this transmitter
persons hundreds of miles apart can
carry on conversations intelligibly.
While the test was being made the
thirteen or fourteen telegraph wires
were in operation, yet there was no
apparent induction; the instruments
could not be heard, as they can fire.
quently be heard in this city, where
the telephone and telegraph wires are
near each other. This difficulty, it is
claimed, is overcome by the formation
of the cartoons of the transmitter so
that there is air constantly between
them, and when they vibrate while
speaking into them the current is
opened and closed perfectly, as with a
telegraph instrument.
