WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-The house
committee on public lands to-day heard a
long argument by ex-senator Mcdonald of
Indiana against the pending proposition
to declare forfeited the land grant of the
Southern Pacific Railroad company. At
the conclusion of the argument the commit
tee went into secret session, and the matter
was debated at length. Mr.. McRea of
Arkansas moved that the entire land grant
be declared forfeited, and Mr.. Strait of
Minnesota proposed to amend that motion
so as to include within the forfeiture only
such lands as are opposite unconstructed
portions of the road. Pending debate the
committee rose and the matter was made a
special order for Thursday next, after the
arguments on the proposition to forfeit the
Atlantic Il Pacific land grants shall have
been heard.

At the meeting of the Southwestern Rail

question will be brought up which is of
great interest to Northwestern lumber ship

entail Un lumber rates from Mississippi to

entails are not satisfactory To the Burling-

differentials OH lumber business between
Chicago, Mississippi and Missouri river
points had been referred. had no right to

decided that the rate from Chicago TO Mis-
souri, river points be reduced from Is cents

no Definite Action.
COLUMBUS, o., Jan. 26.-The situation
in the Ohio senate trouble was quiet this
morning. Suggestions came from both
sides looking to a compromise, but nothing
definite nor any mode of procedure was
agreed upon, neither party of senators be-
ing willing TO be known as proposing 4
compromise. and for this reason the reports
of a settlement may not be of any conse-
quence. The Republicans claim to be firm
in their position and that they will agree
to nothing except it includes immediate
proceedings under the rules they adopted
last evening for the disposition of the Ham
iltOn county contest cases in open senate.
The Democratic senate is credited with the
proposition that a special committee be APP
pointed of equal membership politically, for
the contest cases. The Republicans say
they will not entertain this suggestion, even
if it should come in regular form. The
Democratic senators met in caucus at 10
this morning. and will likely be in session
for several hours. The Republican senate
met at 10, with the lieutenant governor in
the chair. all Republican members present
and none of the Democrats. The journal
of the day previous was read and declared
approved. The Republican senate adjourned
To tomorrow at 10 a. IN. The Democratic
caucus accomplished nothing except To re-
solve on a solid front and that they will go
into the senate chamber at p. m. tO-mOr-
row. the time to which they adjourned.
The latest information tonight is that a
compromise of difficulties will be attempted
tomorrow. The Republicans to-day APP
pointed committee TO meet similar COM
mittee from the Democratic caucus, the OBJ
ject being to come TO some agreement re-
garding the rules for the government of the

their members of the committee at 10 O'clock
in the morning and the meeting will then
be held. 1t is expected they will be ready

every baseball player is an ass. Oh, no;
not every one. The greatest men, it is
said, are the simplest, but the simplest men
are not the greatest, not by jugful. A
man may trample on his conscience all
through the busy day, but when he lies
down at night or stretches himself on a
bed of sickness conscience puts on the
spurs and rides till day break. You put a
fancy uniform on a man, and let 1000
people pay so cents each to watch him, and
he will saw wood as hard as he will play
