TUESDAY FEBRUARY 16. 1886.


A Washington special says the pro-
pramme which has been mapped out by
the Republican Senators does not con-
template any general work in confirming
unt,l several other matters are out OF the
way. The Blair Educational bill and two
or three land grant forfeiture measures
are to receive attention and will first be
disposed Of. Then will come an open
discussion of the report Of the Judiciary
Committee on Mr.. Garland's refusal TO
submit papers regarding q suspension.
When the echoes of the speeches on that
feature of the Administrators policy die
away, the Senate will proceed to confirm
pretty much all of Mr.. Cleveland's APP
pointees. Half q dozen Republican Sena.
tors have been favoring the making more
of a fight with the President, but the
course indicated above seems to meet
the with Endorsement of the majority.
1--WE shall confirm all who are not too
bad, I presume" said a Republican SEN
ator.
"What do You mean by not too bad!"
was asked.
"Well," replied the Senator, 81 sup
pose we shall confirm many appointees
against whom there are some protests
and objections on the score OF untitness.
We shall have to go on the theory that
the President made his selections and ap-
pointments from the best material at his
disposal; that the Democracy of that par.
ticular section couldn't furnish o better
candidate; so, as we confirm, we shall do
it with q mental reservation somewhat as
follows: This is not a very good man for
that place, but is probably the best the
Democratic party can do-so let him pass.
"That is what | mean by saying we
shall confirm all who are not too bad.
Of course, where an appointment has
turned out to be 80 worthless and utterly
bad that the Democrats themselves will
not support it. there will be a rejection.
The President has refused to give us the
papers," continued the Senator, "for rea.
sons which the country fully understands,
and the issue really is not worth while
making a fight about. We are denied
the opportunity of informing ourselves
from the Department files about these
official changes. Whether we have the
right to these papers is one question:
delicate one, which / do not think the
majority care to press just now. Whether
the refusal to show these papers is wise
or just to those most concerned is a ques.
ton the country has as fairly before it as
we can put it. Therefore, that whole
issue will be dropped by the Senate after
the open discussion. Then we shall take
up the nominations and pass upon them
according to their merits, without regard
to the action of the President in suspend.

POWDERLY GETTING TIRED.

The General Master Workman Complains
of Being HIisquOted and Made the Sub
ject of Bogus Interviews.
PHILADELPHIA, April %. - General
Master Workman Powdely was to-day
asked what he thought of the situation in
the West. He said;
81 am not prepared to make any state
ment. The papers have published all
have to say about it and much that l have
not said. l have been credited with many
interviews never held. Yes, it has been
charged that Mr.. Irons was working in
the interest of the gamblers, but l place
no beiief in the assertion. You must
not ask me to express my opinion of the
merits of the strike. l have been so fre-
quentlY misstated that prefer to say noth-
ing about it. So far as my dealings with
Jay Gould are concerned, he not only
deceived me, but he deceived all Wall
street. I never used such language
toward him as l have been credited with;
nor did 1 ever claim a victory or state, as
a New York paper credited me with
doing, that he was 'squelched.' Such re-
ports have done me and the cause 1 rep
resent great harm, and are very unjust.

would not be a gubernatorial candidate is

STEEL RAILS.
Cost of Production and Profits of Manu-

Cost of Production and Profits of Manu-
facturers-An Expensive Article.
"The North Chicago Rolling Mill
Company must be making a great deal
of money!" said railroad man, Il un-
derstand they are turning out 1000
tons of steel rails a week, for which
they are getting about S38 tom This
company has sold rails as low us $27 a
ton, though without profit. A curious
thing about this rail business is that the
price is not much governed by cost OF
production. Only fifteen years ago
railroad with which l was connected
laid several hundred miles Of track
with steel rails, which cost $50 a ton.
just think of that And most Of tho
railroad companies in this country are
now trying to earn fixed charges and
dividends on roads built with rails cost
ing from $50 to $3.50 a ton. One year
ago last fall n thorough investigation
was made at Pittsburgh of the cost Of
making a ton of steel rails. Every
thing was considered, including depre-
citation of plant, repairs, renewals,
1t was found that the cost was
exactly S26.S3. So far as j can
observe wages and materials are
about the same now as they were then,
and yet the selling price IS ten dollars
a ton higher or nearly forty per cent.
above cost. OF course the skilled
workmen, furnace men, Bessemer op-
orators and rolling mill hands are paid
on a sliding scale-the more rails the
more wages they get-and so the com
pany's profit isn't as large as it might
appear. But if they are making a cent
they are making eight dollars TO the
ton, which is thirty-two thousand dol
lars a week. This is at the rate of a
million and a half a year-not at all
bad for a plant whose first cost was
only three millions.
How much does it cost now 90 lay
a mile of track with steel rails? That
depends upon the weight. You can
buy rails as light as fifty-six pounds to
the yard and as heavy as seventy
pounds. Sixty may be taken as an
average. At this weight there are
about one hundred and six tons 70 tho
mile, costing four thousand dollars &C

quiries about the cost of rails with the
round and approximately correct "A

The Nightly Shooting at East ST. Louis
But No One Hurt.


But No One Hurt.
EAST ST. LOUIS, April 25.-About
twelve O'Clock last night the report of
pistol shot followed by five rife shots in
quick succession and after an interval of
about ten seconds three more rife shots
were heard in the direction of the Louis
Vile & Nashville yards. Great excitement
prevailed at headquarters, and General
Reece ordered out Company A, Captain
Able, of Rock Island, Sixth regiment,
who had retired for the night in the
coaches near the Relay Depot, to start at
once on the double-quick for the Louis
vile & Nashville yards. The battalion of
Battery A of Danvifie quickly got their
Gatling gun in readiness, General Vance
with a guard of men were taken on a
fat car with a switch engine to the
yards, but when they reached there all
was quiet. The shooting was Occasioned
by Sentinel Benbow, of Company d,
Fifth Regiment, who, while patrolling the
Louisville & Nashville yards, and in front
of box car, was nearly hit with big
rock which passed close to his head, and
he saw a man looking under car and
called on him to halt, but meeting with
no response, fired one shot at him. The
man returned the fire with a vollcy of
stones. The sentinel then fired two more
shots at him. The man started on a run,
and other guards coming up fred several
shots at his retreating shadow. The man
made his escape, and as no tracks of
blood were discovered on his trail he is
supposed to have got away uninj ured.

NOTICES!

To the OrcupamIs of Lots on the Way
 Cp' Mining ( laim Surface.
 l have heretofore notified you that own three-fifths of the surface ground of the Way Up mine. I now notify you that claim no right to said ground against any one who has been in posses sion of lot or lots thereon for five years, as think the five years statute of limita. tion commenced to run on September 22, 1880, when the patent to the town. site issued. But, in any event, would not disturb any one who has improve ments on lot for several years; unless, in the case of one who has inden,i6ed himself with those who fraudulently ob. tained the townsite title from Alder Ran dall, mayor, or who now buys or has late ly bought of them or given them aid or assistance.
 But, as to all of the lots on said Way Up mine now vacant or unoccupied, or that have lately been settled on or bought from the townsite claimants, or claimants under the Way Up mine, 1 will assert my rights, but will sell at reasonable price, reserving my right to refuse to sell to any one who, by purchasing lots as aforesaid from other claimants and pay ing for more than two. fifths thereof has indentified himself with the frauds.
 N. B. The two-fiflhs interest m said Way Up surface which do not own or claim, does not belong to any one in Tombstone, as near as can find out by the records ofthe county.
