THE TELEPHONE CASE.
Three Documents in the Nature of Re.
ports to be Presented to the House.
WASHINGTON Inns 90

WASHINGTON, June 20.
Three documents in the nature of reports
will be presented to the House by the Pan
Electric Telephone committee, but as neither
will be signed by a majority of the committee
technically speaking there will be no ..re-
port before the House for action. The re-
port drawn up by the chairman will be signed
by himself and Messrs. Oates, Eden and
Hall, all democrats Ranne, has secured
the signatures of Messrs. Millard, Hanback,
and Moffat., all republicans, to his report;
while Hale, democrat. has presented his
views in q individual report. Chairman
Boyle's report will not be made public be-
fore Thursday. The report signed byl the
republican members is long and treats the
evidence in detail. 1t begins with
the history of the formation of the COMPANY
and states that five and half or six million
dollars of the ten millions of capital stock
was actually paid in cash. Testim ny is
cited to show how the Pan Electric Company
was organized and that three and one-half
millions Of its stock was given to gentlemen
for the use of their names and reputation.
The opinion of Senator Garland, declaring
that Rogers patents do not infringe the Bell
patent, is quoted with the statement that il
had been gotten because the Pan Electric
couldn't sell its rights without it, and it was,
as it was intended t. be, an inducement which
led large numbers OF persons to paw in money,
part of which was divided among Garland
and his associates. The report throughout
severely criticises the course pursued BY
Garland and his associates.
The report also criticises Goode, Senator
Harris and Casey Young, and says the two
latter acted as il assured of the course that
was to be pursued by the department of jus
tice. There is good reason to believe, says
the report in conclusion, and we feel con
strained to find that in our judgment the pro-
ceedings would not have been allowed or
asked for had it not cen for the relations of
the Pan Electric Telephone Co with the
Government officials and for the large inter-
est therein, especially held by the head of
the department of justice.

Mr.. Springer Of Illinois moved to increase
from $50, 900 to S200.000 the appropriation
for protecting public lands from fraudulent

Mr. Hiscock called attention to the fact
that the first appropriation for this purpose
had been made by 2 republican Congress.
He had no intention Of turning his back upon
that policy, but he protested against It's being
taken hold of by the democrats for the pur-
pose of crediting patronage.
Mr.. Herbert of Alabama, denied the charge
that it was sought to increase appropriations
in order that patronage might also be incress-
ed
Mr. Springer disclaimed any thought of
patronage in connection with his motion. If
patronage were to be regarded there were
several hundred persons now in the employ
of the interior department who might be
turned out at any time.
Mr.. Reed-They are being turned out every
day.
Mr.. Springer retorted that the gentleman
was better informed than himself.

from S25. 900 to $4,000, the appropriation
which may be expended for the examination
ef surveys to test the accuracy of the work.

priation for geological survey and defining
