MUST Nor ACCEPT RETAINERs.-
Rich lawyers in the senate received a
shock Thursday, when Senator Beck's
bill was passed by vote of more than
three to one to prohibit members of
congress from accepting retainers or
employment from railroad companies
which have received land grants or
pecuniary aid from congress. The bill
was probably introduced for effect as
much as anything, but if it has the
effect Of Keeping clean the hands of
certain able members it will accom-
plish good purpose. Judge Edmunds
wanted it referred to the judiciary COM
mittee, where it probably never would
have been heard from again. and on
this proposition the note was closed,
but when it came to the passage of the
bill eleven senators, all republicans,
went on record against it. Among the
eleven were Don Cameron, Riddleber-
ger, Hoar, Mitchell of Oregon, Evarts
and Edmunds. Later in the session
Hawley, who voted for the bill, encour-
aged its opponents by giving notion of
a motion to reconsider.
