Resolution Returned.
LospeS, Feb. l6.-The Berlin cor
respondent OF the Times says: Prince
Bismarck has returned to Herr Won
Eisendecker, German Minister at Wash
ington, the resolution Of coincidence on
Herr Lasker's death, passed by Congress,
with the counter request to return the
resolution to the House Of Representa-
tives, as the position of Iasker in Germa-
ny was not such as to justify the resolu
ton. The Times adds: Although TIE
above seems incredible. the fact is, the
relations of Washington and Berlin are
in state Of great tension, chiefly owing
to the pig flesh question. The Times
concludes; One thing is certain, we have
not heard the last Of the Lasker matter.
The Americans are much too proud, too
sensitive and too independent for that.

CHICAGO, Feb. lG.-The Inter Ocean :
Washington special says; The crusade
OF the House Committee on Public
Lands against railroad schemes does not
appear to he serious. Conservative men
in both houses and of both parties, re.
gard it as buncomb and expect it to end
in the Senate, which never does any
thing hastily, and has very strong rail.
road element in its composition. Even
the most active anti-railrJad men in the
Senate do not expect a general forfeit
ure of granted lands and hope only to
secure the restoration OF such domain as
the railroads have not taken measures
to occupy. Genuine projects, such as
the Northern Pacific, will not be inter
ferred with, but long abandoned schemes
will undoubtedly be deprived Of what
ever past Congresses have granted them.
