SERVING TWO MASTERS.
The Senate Coquetting with the
Beck Bill.

WASHINGTON, June 10.-After the rou-
tine morning business In the Senate to-
day, Mr.. Beck called up his bill to pro-
hibIt members Of Congress from accepting
retainers or employment from railroad
companies which have received land
grants or pecuniary aid from Congress.
MIR. Beck stated he had no remarks to
make upon it and asked for its immediate
consideration.
MIR. Edmunds moved its reference to the
Committee on judiciary.
Mr. Beck said it would be as well to
vote the bill down at once as to refor 1t to
that committee.
Mr.. Edmunds remarked that he would
move its reference to the Committee on
Finance if thai would suit Mr.. Beck
better.
This did not suit Mr.. Beck any better.
Then Mr.. Edmunds repeated his motion
to refer it TO the Committee on the Ju-
dietary.
On this the yeas and nays were called,
and the motion was rejected BY vote
of q 10 "A.
The bill then came TO vote, and was
passed without reference to any commit
tee. On the passage OF the bill the yeas

motion to reconsider the bill. Mr.. Haw-
ley said that, with a number of other
Senators, he had voted for the passage of
the bill, but since voting for it he had
given the bill some consideration, hence
his motion to reconsider. The motion
was agreed to. After an executive ses-
sion the Senate adjourned.

The Northern Pacific Bill Ordered

WASHINGTON, June 10.-Mr. Dolph
moved to-day that the Senate resume con-
sideration of the Northern Pacific forfeit
ure bill and that bill was land before the
Senate.
Pending consideration Of this bill Mr..
Rlddleberger called attention to his resO-
luton providing Tor open executive ses-
sions. 1t was five months, he said, since
we began consideration OF the question
whether this boayswas a House Of Lords
or the United States Senate. No deci-
sion had been arrived at yet.
MIR. Morrill, said there was a natural I'M
derstanding that the subject would be
brought up and voted on after the rail-
road bills were disposed Of.
Mr. Riddleberger insisted on a vote on
the question of taking up his resolution.
The Senate refused to take it up by 8
yeas to 81 nays. The Senators voting in
the affirmative were Messrs. Blair, But
Ter, Coke, Frye, George, Logan, Riddle
berger and Van Wyck.
Mr.. Plumb wished to call up the bill
repeating the presumption timber culture
and desert land act, but the Senate pre-
ferred to 90 on with the forfeiture bill.
Mr.. Cockrell submitted an amendment,
the effect of which would be to forfeit all
lands which had not been earned within
the time required by the granting acts.
The bill and amendments were then or
dered reprinted and went over till to-
morrow.

The Men Bound Co Stand Out for
the Eight-Hour Day.
CHICAGO, June 10.-The brotherhood
OF Carpenters and Joners held a meeting
last night to take action in regard to the
impending strike IN the ten-bour shops,
which is expected to occur next Monday
morning. There are o. shops out OF over
300 standing out for the ten-h0ur working
day. Unless these shops conform to the
time standard adopted by the rest of the
trade, 1000 men will lay down their tools
next Monday. About 5000 carpenters
are working on eight hours work and the
eight hours pay rule. The men claim
this is the State law ne TO hours cOnsti-
tuting legal days work, and that it is
the law OF the nation. Under the labor
laws enacted by Congress and the State
Legislature, they claim that employers
violating these statutes are in contempt
of the law. and they are therefore hopeful
of the success of their cause. They base
the entire justice Of their demand upon
the fact that they only ask eight hours
pay for eight hours work, although ma
tiOnal and State laws make eight hours
full DAVIS work.

by the Press.

CHICAGO, June 10.-Mayor Harrison is
credited with statement that he will not
veto the cable railroad ordinance unless
he finds something in it that ought to be
changed. This is the ordinance concern
Ing which charges Of bribery were pub
lished yesterday. Mayor Harrison also
says he told President Yerkes, OF the
cable road, that he would have to pay
somebody for the LaSalle street tunnel,
which is included IN the grant, with EN-
phasis on the somebody, and he proposed
TO obtain for the city the best terms he
could.
The Times and News to-day continue
their unfaVorable comment upon Mayor
Harrison and the City Council, and the
Times says the average Chicago Alder
men, like his prototype of Gotham, has
reduced the blackmailing OF corporations
10 fine art. IL is we'll understood that
every corporation which goes 10 the
Chicago Council for privileges or favors
must be prepared TO pay handsomely
therefor.
