hardly look without pity on this fallen politi-

RAILWAY REGULATIONS.
The Senate Wrangling Oyer the
Method Of Procedure on the In
terstate Commerce Bill.
Special telagram to The Globe.


WAsHiNGroN, Jan. 9.--In the senate this
afternoon a motion was made by Senator
Garland TO refer TO the railway Commute the
Reagan bill as passed by the house and the
Cullom bill, which the senate was then dis
cussing, together with all the amendments
pending in the senate. The object
Of the motion was to en-
able the Reagan bill to be
reported back 10 the senate, with such
amendments as the committee desired 10 sug-
gest, to the end that when final action was
taken upon the bill II would be in such a
shape as 10 be referred 10 a committee OF
conference. A spirited debate cnsued, dur
ing which Senators Cullom, ingalls,, Har-
rison, Maxey. Conger and others
expressed great anxiety for the
passage of an interstate commerce bill
in some shape, but doubted wheth er the re
ference of all bills 10 the committee would
e1pedlate the final passage Of the measure.
At last it was agreed TO let the Reagan house
bill remain upon the secretary,s desk with
out reference 10 the committee until the
senate had amended the Cullon bill In q
has been done, instead Of passing the
bill. motion win be made
10 take the bouse bill from the table, amend
It by striking out all after the enacling clause
inserting the bill matured by the senate, and
then pass it. The bill will then 20 back to
the house for cODcurrency in the senate
amendments. The action Of the house will
depend on the nature OF the substitute bill
finally agreed upon By the senate, but II the
house simply disagrees TO the senate amend
ments and the senate asks a committee Of
conference, there Is possibility that the
Reagan bill, with some notifications, will
become a law, provided Il can receive the
presidents approval. This statement 10
predic4ted upon the hypothesis that congress
is IN earnest about the matter II there ia
no desire IN congress 10 enact reasonable
law TO provide for the ascertainment and

KIR IN EUROPE.

Startling and unwelcOme as the announce
ment may be, it is nevertheless true that in
the most observant and best informed cir
Giles. the peace of the world is menaced by
the present uneasy and unsatisfactory cOndi-
ton of affairs in Europe. The relations be-
tween Germany aud England, seem not to
be assuring and hostile as French sentiment is
supposed to be towards Germany, combina-
ton is alleged to exist between France and
Germany, to oppose and interfere with Eng
lands financial management in Egypt.
Russia, in violation of treaties is said to in
dictate a purpose to push forward her inter
ests in Afghanistan ;Germanyis antagouizing
England's influence in Turkey and Bismarck
is reported to have been speaking in terms
of conlemptuous severity of Gladstone.
The great standing armies of the Powers,
are believed to menace the peace Of Europe,
which is like camp. Business is in a state
of staguation, and threatening internal ele-
ments, cause uneasiness and apprehension.
The prevalence of Nihilism and threatened
bloody rebellion in Russia, the civil ulset-
ting of Socialism in Germany, and Com
munism in France, indicates a speedy ter
mination Of both, while the Irish troubles
and Indian disaffectiOn is supposed to so
weaken England with her extended interests
and mplications, as to invite Z combined
attack upon her producing great war or up
hcaval like that OF the wars of Napoleon in
the beginning OF the century. Whether
these representations are tanciful or real,
the fact remains that great uneasiness and
apprehension exists in the minds Of clear
and intelligent observers who are in posi-
lions 10 scan the antagouisms and movements
Of the Continental Powers OF an Outburst
that will destroy the peace Of Europe, and
precipitate gigantic wars, involving all the
