relations of the Baltimore aud Ohio with the
Pennsylvania railroad and Philadelphia, vii.

same rs those of any other foreign corporation

timOrC and Ohio was informed that the Penn
sylyania railroad would continue to sell their
tickets and check baggage to any poin upon
the line of their road so soon 0s the proper
arrangements were made iOr receiving and
transferring their passengers In Baltimore.
The Pennsylvania railroad has not in any way
deprived the Baltimore and ohio of any hcili-
ties that are accorded to any other foreign
competitive corporation that they are now do
ing business with. The Pennsylvania railroad
people state that the number of cars they
moved for the Baltimore and Ohio, though
quite small, carried but II triiling number of
passengers, and the revenues after dcducting
the payments made for car service and other
expenses, did not ut all reimburse the Penn
sylvnnia railroad for the expense of such n
special and exceptional service. The gross
revenues that the Philadelphia, Wilmington
and Baltimore railroad received from the pas

WASHINGTON, d. c., December 1.-THE
Chair laid before the Senate a message
from the President transmitting report
from the Secretary of State, showing the
necessity for immediate legislation to
prevent collisions at sea. Referred to the
Committee on Commerce.
Mr.. Van Wyck (of Nebraska) offered
for immediate consideration resolutions
providing for the consideration Of the
Spanish treaty IN open session.
Senator Wilson (of Iowa. objected,
and the resolution went over, under the
rules, to the regular order.
The bill FORGETTING lands granted for
the construction of the Oregon
Central Railroad was then taken
up. The amendment offered by
Mr. Plumb, yesterday, repeating the
act OF March 3rd, 1875, and providing
that actual settlers upon railroad lands
who shall actually have paid for the same,
and which lands are subsequently for.
feited to the United States, shall have the
right TO locate an amount equal to the
original entry without additional cost,
was adopted; yeas, ~ nays, IL.
Mr.. 5. Morgan referring to the fact dis
closed in debate that there was a mort
gage and deed OF trust on the lands pro-
posed to be forfeited, that the United
States had no power to conhscate
these property rights without first SUBJ
hitting the matter to the court for de.
ci~ion by proceeding in the nature of a
bill of interpleader, moved to recommit
the bill to the Committee on Public
Lands
Messrs. Blairand Lapham supported the
motion of Van WICK, and Mr. Slater OPP
posed II. Without reaching vote, at

sheraton Of unfinished business, which

j. j. Barker Before the Committee on
Expenditures.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., December H.
The subcommittee of the House Commit
tee on Expenditures in the Department
OF Justice, Mr. Hemphill chairman, met
this morning and began an investigation
Of alleged irregularities in the Office OF
the First Comptroller of the Treasury.
Judge Lawrence, First Comptroller, and
several Of his assistants were present.
j. j. Barker, who preferred the charges,
was sworn.
The accounts OF j. Farrs Moore, Jury
Commissioner for the State Of Maryland,
was first called for by the witness, who
examined the account and claimed that it
was Illegal there being no law in the
statute-book, under which 1t could be
paid. He had protested against its al
lowance, but Notwithstanding his obiec-
tons, the account, which involved $40,
was allowed.
Under cross-eXamnatlon, the witness
stated his only objection to the ac-
count to be that there was no law author
izing its payment.
The next account examined by the wit
ness was that of VIM. A. Stone, United
States Attorney for the Western District
OF Pennsylvania, for per diem attendance
upon the United States Court at Pitts.
burgh, amounting to S50j, in addition TO
his docket fees of Sl30. Witness called
attention OF the Comptroller TO the large
per diems In this case and that officer, he
said, thought the account outrageous and
conferred with the Auditor respecting it.
The account was finally allowed. Cross-eX-
amined JF VI llken, witness thought the
charges ia this case were improper, as
th re were an unnecessary number OF per
dlcms charged FOR attendance upon the
Court. At this point witness explained
that his orders were TO allow accounts,
according to precedent, and that in his
examination OF previous accounts of Of
Hccrs which had been allowed
he also found improper charges,
and consequently declined to allow
the cases he handled, simply because SIM
liar allowances had been previously made
IN violation OF the statnte
The account OF John A. Shields United
States Commissioner for the Southern
District OF New York for fees in swearing
claimants against the Government WAS
next examined. Witness knew no statute
under which the Commissioner was en-
titled to allowance by the Government
for this service and protested against al
lowance. The First Comptroller agreed
with him, but the account was finally
audited.
