AMright Examination.


CINCINNATI, January 6.-The Con
gressional committee examining into
the appointment of United States
deputy marshals in this city at the last
October election, resumed the exami-
nation of Marshal Wright this morn
ing. The general method of question
ing was to read the names of the depu-
ties, appointed one by one, and ask the
marshal if he knew these men, where
they lived and who recommended them
and then Mr.. Fallett would ask If wit
ness did not know they were thieves,
murderers, ex-convictS just out of jail
or warehouses, charged with crimes,
etc. The witness, in most cases, would
not recollect the persons asked about
nor who recommended them. He had
never heard of a single instance where
any deputy had in any way prevented
any citizen from casting legal vote.
He endeavored to get good and eff
Gent men, most of them were such
He admitted having appointed three
deputies to serve in Reading, which
was not a city of 10000 inhabitants
and from which he had no written ap
plication. In witness view of the law
he had power to send general deputie!
to every voting place in the southern
Ohio district, but would not be entitled
to allow them pay for such service
He denied having had consultation
with Butterworth and Brown or will
the Republican committee, except in ;
casual way.

Kansas Railroad Rates.

Topeka. Kansas, January 6.-Repre-
sentatiyes OF the traffic systems of all
Kansas railroads met here yesterday,
witb members OF the late board of
railroad commissioners for a confer
ence in regard to freight rates on wheat.
Traffic managers presented long an
swer to the requestfora reduction, stat
inc that the present rates
we're established by the State
commissioners during last sum-
mer and were conceded to be fair
and lust to all parts of the State. Sta
tistics we're offered showing the prosper
GUS condition of Kansas wheat growers
and the improbable condition Of
smaller railroads operating in this State.
In the Judgment OF the traffic managers
reduction at this time would not be of
any special advantage to Kansas farm
ers for the reason that the market price
is controlled by transportation charges
and if it cost less to ship, small price
would be realized. 1t was further agreed
that reduction OF freight rates would
necessitate a corresponding reduction
in operating expenses of the Kansas
railroads and would greatly weaken
some of them. An informal discussion
was had as to the reported distress
among farmers and grain growers Of
Kansas and measures necessary tc Dt
taken to afford them relief. The result
of the conference is an expression on tbs
partsof the railroads against the pro
position for a reduction. The commits
sioners have not signifed what further
action they will take.

House.

WASHINGTON, January ellis, from
the committee on appropriations, re-
ported joint resolution appropriating
$4,000 for the supper. of destitute
Indians in Montana. Passed.
The House then went into committee
of the whole on the pension approprl-
alton bill. u
Hancock explained the provisions of
the bill, which appropriates $59,976,OOO,
or S24 900 less than the estimates.
Warner (Ohio) inveighed against the
abuses which existed under the present
pension law, in the matter of compensa-
ton allowed to claim agents, and de-
clared that the piracy of the middle
ages was an honest calling compared
with the operations of the claim agents
in the City of Washington. He pro-
posed; to limit the fees of agents to $40,
payable only when the claim was al
lowed, but to allow special written con-
tracts for S25 to be entered into between
the claimant and the agent residing In
the same State and county with him.
! Randall said that at the last session
the House adopted a proposition to
! remedy the evils existing, but the Sen
ate refused to concur init.
| Lie Dill having Detn IedI lOi .iAc
amendments, Everhart offered provlso
that all applicants for pensions shall be
presumed to have had no disability at
| the time of enlistment. but such pre-
sumption may be rebutted. Adopted.
Rogers ark offered an amendment,
providing no agent shall receive any fee
for his services in pension cases until
| the allowance of the claim.
Warner offered an amendment to the
amendment, limiting special contracts
to the claimant and claim agent resid-
ing in the same State Agreed to.
Rogers amendment, as amended, was
adopted.
On motion, O'Hara's amendment was
adopted, providing that the mode and
manner provided for the regulation FOL
payment of white pensioners shall ap
ply to all pensioners.

creasing the rate of pension to widows
and minor children to $12 per month

rranscontinontal Railroad Rates.

CHICAGO, January 6.-The Pacific
Coast Association (roads between Chi
cago, st. Louis and the Missouri River
interested in California freight traffic)
has succeeded in abolishing the special
contract system on California freight,
a system in vogue for many years past by
which the Central Pacific was permitted
to make special rates for such shippers
tabou. one-third of the regular tariff
rates) as would make contract not to
ship any of their business by the Pacific
Mail steamship line or clipper ships,
but to send it by all rail routes. Roads
east of the Missouri River and eastern
trunk lines had to pro rate with
the California lines at those lower con-
tract rates. AT the end of last year the
Pacific Coast Association decided not to
Join the Trans Continental Association
in any of the contracts, and insisted
upon regular agreed rates being charged
to all shippers alike. AS eastern trunk
lines were backed up by the Pacific
Coast Association in this matter, the
Trans Continental had no other alter
native than to submit to the demands OF
their eastern connections. The Trans
Continental, therefore, has given notice
that all contracts expired january list,
and hereafter no more special contracts
OF any kind would be made, but that
regular rates adopted in this city about
month ago will be charged: The
Central Pacific has also agreed with
trunk lines to take no more business
via the Sunset route from interior
points in New York and New England
but to confine its competition by that
route only to business originating al
seaboard points.

On Trial for Murder.

LONDON, January g. Second mate
William Raucher and boatswain Fer
dinand Koelplin, of the American
ship j. z. Chapman, from San Francis
co, were arraigned to-day at the Bow
street police court, on the charge of
having murdered a Russian seaman
named Jansen, by cruel treatment, and
for examination Under the extradition
treaty with the United States. A dead
lock occurred, because the extradition
treaty does not expressly name murder
as one of the crimes for whic person
may be extradited. After several hours
delay, however, the prisoners were
placed in the dock. The American
Consul was present to watch the pro-
ceedings for his government. The
prisoners were remanded to allow time
for communication with The. American
government.

Tie Ernosition Finance.

New ORLEANS, January 6-Director
General Burke states that 1000 men were
at work, day and night in the rain and
mud during the last month at the Ex-
position grounds. Our laborers have
been paid up to the last weeks rolls and
a large part of these rolls has been paid.
The balance will be paid to-day. Be-
ginning the LIST of January, all receipts
we're first applied to the operating ex-
penses which have been reduced to
low figures, The surplus Is applied to
back indebtedness. The receipts are
ample for current expenses, even dur
ing bad weather. With fair weather,
the revenues will be ten times the
amount of the expenses. When asked
II the Exposition management would
apply to Congress, Director General
burke! said the board expressed no such
intention. The board will apply to our
own people to increase the subscriptions
ana pay the amounts due, and that the
exposition, he thinks, will be perfectly
sole to carry itself without aid from the
government.

The Serenity of the Mines Dis
turbed by Robbery.

THE USUAL serenity Of the coal mines
was disturbed the other day by a rob
-bery-a real, genuine robbery. Two
fellows, giving their names as Frank
Heath and George Auer (both names
believed to be fictitious, } made raid on
David Williams warehouse and ex-
tracted between $50 and $50 worth of
goods, principally gents underwear.
About $50 worth of the stock has been
recovered; the whereabouts of the rest
remains mystery. A key was
found on Auer that would fit
almost any door in the canyon. They
were taken before Justice d. j.
Williams, who sentenced them to each
pay fine of $50, and to decorate the
Jail with their presence for like period
Of time. 1t has since been learned that
both parties are pretty hard cases.
Auer is about % years of age, and COM
monty called "Dutchy," Heath is about
%. "Dutchy" appears to be the worst
of the two, although either has a look
that would send him up at sight in any
civilized community.
