The Silver Coinage Question - Iowa I'm
earned Land Grants

earned Land Grants
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.-In the senate a
number of reports were submitted and ap-
propriately referred. Senator Mitchell Of
fered the following preamble and resolution:
"WHEREAs, the commercial value of silver
has so far deprecated that the standard silver
dollars coined under the act of 1883 are now
worth but 80 cents in the open market, and
whereas, the continued coinage of such de-
preciated dollars, now amounting to nearly
5000, O0O. 900, seriously threatens the suspen-
sion of gold payment by the government
from necessity, and the consequent Danish
ment of gold coin from active circulation /;
therefore,
I1esoved, That the committee on finance
be and hereby is instructed forthwith to pre-
pare and report to the senate proper bill to
provide for the immediate suspension of the
coinage of standard silver dollars, and for
the resumption of such coinage whenever the
commercial value of the standard dollars
aforesaid shall rise to, within 5 per cent. of
par with the standard gold dollars of the
United States"
Objection being made to Reconsideration
of the resolution it was laid over.
The senate then, on motion of Sen ator
Wilson, took up the house bill to forfeit the
unearned lands granted to the state of Iowa
to aid the construction of the Sioux City d
st. Paul railroad.
The bill as passed by the house declares
that such unearnedlands acknowledgements the
encouragement to institute legal proceed
Jugs to ascertain and determine their GUAM
tity and provides that the actual bona fide
settlers already on the lands shall have pref
erence of entry at the land office. For these
provisions the senate committee on public
lands substitutes provisions asserting the re-
yersionary right of the United State to the
lands referred to, giving the United States
circuit court jurisdiction to determine all
controversies relating to such lands that may
exist between the United States and the
state of Iowa, or persons claiming rights in
such lands. The substitute also provides
that such of the lands as the court may de-
clare belong to the United States, shall con-
stitute part of the public domain and be
subject to his disposal as such, except that
bona fide settlers claims shall be recognized
as lawful.
Senator Plumb favored the bill and Sena-
tor Mcmillan opposed it. After short dis
cusson it was laid over and the senate ad-

New YORK, Feb. 9S.-The only question
on the minds Of outsiders as to the correct
ness OF the cabinet slate announced to-day
Is 10 the selection Of Whitney as secretary OF
the navy. It is not to be presumed that this
list is impossible OF change, but that it Is
one decided upon is certain. Mr., Cleve-
lands determination to give two places to
New York is based on three considerations.
The first is his intention 10 combine the
East and South In the political movements
OF the next four years. The West will be
only incidentally considered through Mr.
Hendricks In Indiana Even Mr.. Villas,
while the sole representative Of the West, will
be expected TO use his patronage 10 further
the scheme mentioned. The second cousid-
Grafton was the personal relation between
himself and Mr.. Whitney. Il is customary
FOR the president to have at least one uerson al
friend in the cabinet. Mr.. Manning is Mr..
Tilden's friend, rather thap Mr.. Cleveland's.
Mr.. Whitney comes nearer the 20
sitjon OF a personal follower aud
friend. The third consideration vas
the precedent 4 large list Of similar
dual appointments stretches across the face
OF blue books from Washington 70 Grant
Il is probable, also, thst the desire 20 have a
wealthy young New Yorker with his ability
for political mauacemeutin Washington had
much to 90 with ihc decision.
The attitude OF Western Democrats on the
silver question certainly fastened aud con-
arrned it. The cabinet news which Is here

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.-The house com
mittee on military affairs has been investi-
eating the accounts Of Gen. Ben Butler as
one of the board of managers of the Ma
tional Soldiers home, and has discovered
very large shortage, which is stated
to be as high as $4,000. 1t appears
that the cock-eyed child of destiny has been
acting as treasurer, discussing officer,
auditor, executive committee and everything
else of the board, and has been doing just as
he pleased and his colleagues did not inter
fere. Last summer subcommittee
of the military conn ittee made
tour of the national soldiers homes,
and investigated matters thoroughly.
of the homes were breaking away badly and
the committee began an investigation of
Mr.. Butler. who appears to have been the
managing treasurer, with the result above
stated. The military committee will report
the facts to the house at the earliest oppor-
tunity and leave the house to decide wha
action to take. The committee will
not ask for an investigation, believing that
their own investigation is sufficient. TIL
government is paying Butler 1000 year
rent for two Of his houses on Capitol HILL
but this property is mortgaged. 1t is pre-
sumed that Butler has means of max
ing the funds of the homes good, but
the fact that he lately borrowed
$50, 900 on houses leased to the government
has given rise to the rumer that he is finan-
cially EN- barrassed and that all of his ex-
penses during the late presidential campaign
were not paid by the Republican national
committee. As the generals variegated po-
litical career has not left many political
friends, it is expected that the house will not
show much sympathy for him.

collected. Short pleaded 'not guilty'' to the
charge of assault and battery. The recorder
said as the case was an aggravated one he
would increase the bail from $4,000 to SIS, 600.
Short was then removed. Mrs. Dudley was
then arraigned, and approached the bar with
quiet smile. Her counsel said by his adj
vice she stood mute. The recorder directed
the plea ''not guilty. to be entered for Mrs.
Dudley, and her bail was fixed at $4,000. The
accused was then taken back to prison.
Neither Capt Phelan nor O'Donovan Rosa
was present during the proceedings.

HOLD UP YOUR HANDS.
A Bold But Unsuccessful Attempt to Rob the
Nebraska State Treasury, Sc:

LINCOLN, Neb., Feb 2S.-About 9 O'Clock
this afternoon three men walked quietly Into
the state treasurer's Office, drew revolvers,
and said to Deputy Treasurer Bartlett, who
stood behind the railing:
''Hold up your handsn'
The muzzles of the pistols almost touched
his head through the railing. Bartlett an
swered:
"What does this mean, mens Is it fool
ing or business?" But his hands went up
all the same.
s'No talk,n retorted the man who appeared
to be the leader. "Just hand out the money
and be quick about it."
Bartlett passed out through the railing
about $500, saying in loud voice:
Here it is, help yourselves -
Two of the men then turned to the door,
the third backing out covering their retreat
with cooked pistol drawn on Bartlett. The
loud tone employed by Bartlett was a signal
to Detectives Pound and Davis, who were
concealed in an adjoining room. Hearing
it they stepped into the hall just as the two
robbers passed out of the treasurer's public
door. The detectives shouted ''halt, u
but no attention was paid by the fleeing men,
who afterward proved to be Griffin and Ma
guire, Griffin being one legged was behind
A moment later the
REPORT OF SHOT GUN
was heard and Griffin fell on the porch steps
with ter or twelve buckshot in his back and
right shoulder. chase took in Mcguire be-
fore he could mount his horse tied to post
about four feet from the door. At the
moment the gun was fired in the
hall the third man, who is
unknown unless to the detectives, stopped,
closed the door, and instead of passing
through turned and went through the door
behind the railing, ran across the room,
jumped out Of the open window and made
his escape. No pursuit seems to have been
made of this mysterious individual. The
money was recovered by Pound, who re-
turned it to the treasurer. Mcguire was
taken to jail 1t appears that Pound and
Davis knew the attempt was to be made and
had an understanding with Bartlett that he
should talk loud enough to the robbers to
be heard in the place of concealmeut.
The descent had been looked for any day
during the past week. The robbers had vsi-
ted the capitol several times, but some hitch
in the arrangements had deferred them
from the actual robbery until to-day. There
is mystery about the affair, especially
the part taken by the detectives. that has
created almost as much curiosity as ex-
element. This may be cleared up when the
escaped robber is arrested, if he ever is.
Later-The robber wounded at the state
capitol this afternoon died at O'Clock. His
name was james Griffin, noted criminal,
had killed his man and been engaged in a
number of small thieving affairs. The cap
tured man is Alvin Mcguire, another notori-
Gus thief, who also has scored his man. The
third man, who escaped, was in collision
with the detectives aud decoyed the other
two into the daring crime.
