WASHINGTON, March "a. - Agent
Gregory was croSS-eXamined again to
day by Senator Chandler. The witness
was suffering from nervous debility and
loss of memory, if not of manhood, and
uneasily answered the interrogations
assuring Chandler that all who have
testified contrary to his statements are
liars and villains. He cannot remem-
Der why he annulled the Callahan con-
tracts and awarded them to Sherman,
Henry and Bergevine. He simply
knows that he is honest and meant to
do right. He signed many con-
tracts without looking at them, merely
because the clerk placed them before
him. If anything is wrong it is the
fault of the clerk. He believes the
Valley Lumber company is making
money, and that Sherman is not losing
anything, but knows absolutely moth
ing. He is quite confident, almost GER
tain, that no one ever tried to corruptly
influence him in his approval of con-
tracts. He feels quite sure that law
and the presidents order have
been violated this winter, but
has been p0werless to prevent it.
COffey, Denomie, Pound, Callighan and
the Indians were present and interested.
Pound wrote a question for Chandler to
ask Gregory, but the senator crushed it
in his hand and seemed not to notice it.
Later he asked if Pound ever tried to
cOrruptly influence Gregory in behalf Of
Callighan and the witness promptly re-
sponded mo" Mr.. Gregory fell back
on his poor memory at least once every
five minutes during the two hours he
was on the rack.

THE HOUSE.
Proceedings Devoted to Business
from the Judiciary Commit

Il
from the Judiciary Commit
tee.
WASHINGTON, March 24.-Proceed
ings in the house of representatives to-
day were devoted almost entirely to
business reported from the judiciary
committee. The bill to define and regu-
late the jurisdiction of United States
courts was taken up in committee of the
whole early in the day and discussed
without action until the adjournment.
Mr.. Stone, of Missouri, urged the neces-
sity of separating the machinery of the
state courts entirely from that of the
federal courts. Mr.. Weaver, of Iowa, while
giving his adherence to most of the
features of the bill, opposed the provis-
ion for the appointment OF nine addl-
tional circuit judges. He was in favor
of legislation which, instead of provid-
ing for more judges. would tend to cur
tail the jurisdiction of the federal courts
and turn the business of the country
into the local tribunals. Mr.. Anderson,
of Iowa, declared himself as enough of
a states-rightS man to be in favor of the
home courts in his own state, and to
be opposed to any law which in the re-
hottest degree had tendency to increase
the Jurisdiction of the federal courts.
Mr.. Wilson, of Minnesota, spoke in adj
vocacy of proposed amendment pro-
viding that no corporation shall in any
suit to which it shall be party be held
to be citizen of any state other than
that in which the suit is brought, be-
cause it was organized under the laws
of such other state. Mr.. Holman, of In
diana, predicted that if the bill were
passed in its present shape within five
years the business of the district courts
would require twice as many judges as

wipe them out of existence as, in the
event of another election the Liberal
unionists will have to face their con-
stituents either as others or Liberal S, or
meet defeat. In is certain that as Lib
eral uniOnists they will receive no as
sistance from the Tories, and it is
equally certain that under such c0ntin-
gencies the Liberals will also reject
them. Both great parties will bring
forward candidates in every constitu-
ency where there is the least chance OF
winning. ThesrOries believe they can
CARRY VERY NEARLY ALL Few
the Liberal UniOnists with the reform
measures promised in the local governs
ment bill, which they claim as their
own, but which, it is alleged, they have
no intention of allowing to become a
law. A member of the government
confessed ON Friday to some doubt
whether the measure would findi1ts
way into law at all this session in view
OF the multitudlous diversities of Opln4
ion which have arisen GU its details.
But" he added, I'VE shall get
the principle debated in any
case" Such skepticism as to the
prospects of the measure is not rare
among the experienced members of the
house. Mr.. Gladstone and Mr.. Parhelt
have become exceedingly suspicious, OF
the governments intentions regarding
the bill. They will employ all their
parliamentary skill i'll pushing forward
the measure and do nothing with any
Interior object which the Tories may
have in view. The leaders of the oppo-
sition admit that the local government
bill would strongly influence the En-
gliSh constituencies in case of diSsO-
luton, and that Sherwood parliament
airy tactics will have to be employed to
PREVENT LORD SALISBURY
from riding for fall until it can be
shown by slip here and there during
the discussions in the house that the
measure was intended solely to hood
wink the English Democracy in order
to return the Tory government to power
with good working majority without
the Unionists. The report is current
to-day that Count Herbert Won Bis
marck, in his communications
with Lord Salisbury, has en-
deavOred to smooth the way for
some satisfaction in Bulgaria to the
amour propre of Russia, policy which
formed the keynote Of Prince Bis
marck'S recent address.

ARMY OFFICERS.
The Military Committee Presents
Bill for Their Promotion.

The Military Committee Presents
a Bill for Their Promotion.
WASHINGTON, March 24.-The bill
reported to the house to-day to provide
for the promotion of army officers below
the rank of brigadier general after
twenty years continuous service i'll one
grade, was presented by the military
committee III lieu Of several specific
bills providing for promotions in the
subsistence, paymaster and medical de-
partmentS and in the line of the army.
One of these bills, that relating to the
subsistence department was passed
by the senate a day or two ago.
Under the general bill reported
to-day, which the committee hope will
quiet the long-eXisting jealouSleS be-
tween the line and staff, the subsistence
department will be stronger by. a lieu
tenant-cOlOnel and three ma OrS than it
now is, and one major and four captains
will be promoted at once. The senate
bill, however, still further increased
this allowance by one colonel and three
observation-disclosures. Every effort was
made to get the house committee to ac-
cept the senate bill. but at yesterdays
meeting this was refused and the orig
inal and general bill insisted upon. In
the report accompanying the bill the
committee says it believes that general
law embracing the provisions eX-
pected to be covered by The special bills
would result in increasing the efficiency
of the army by removing the inequali-
ties existing in certain branches of the
service. AS an instance of the unjust
operation of the present law the COM
mittee points to the case of Capt. CuSh-
ing, of the subsistence department, who
i'll 1868 ranked many of the lieutenant
colonies and all but eleven of the majors
now in the service outside of the SUBJ
sistence department. He has been cap
tain nearly twenty six years and has seen
more than 200 officers, who were his
juniors in rank and service, promoted to
be majors. Quotations are made from
the Gen. Sheridan's letter, wherein he
says: 1.-The promotion of men who have
stood in one grade for so many years
would benefit the service" and Secre-
tary Endicott's letter asking speedy and
favorable consideration for the matter.
The committee says: There are in
service to-day 1913 officers below the
rank of colonel who have had from
twenty to twenty-five years service UNI
der one commission. The increased cost
would be only about 100000 per annum,
result in much good to the service and
relieve congress from the continual i'm
portunities and complaints that have
been made for wears.

BATTLE AGAINST DEATH.
Congressman Mills In Bad Con
dition and Not Expected to Live

Congressman Mills In Bad Con-
dition and Not Expected to Live.
Special TO the Globe.
WASHINGTON, March 24.-It is not
expected that Congressman Mills, of
Texas, will live. His physician, DR..
Somers, claims that the fever was
broken early this evening and speaks
hopefully, but comedies that his lungs
are slightly congested. This concession
means much. Mr.. Mills is in his siXtieth
year, and although seemingly hearty,
belongs to family to which
affections of the lungs and
consumption are not strangers. He is
broad chested, with short, thick neck,
like Chief Justice Waite-iust the build
most pregnant with danger from such
attacks. Nothing but miracle can
save him. Dr.. SOmerS has turned over
his practice to his associates and re-
mains with the distinguished sufferer.
This is a significant sign. 1t means
that nothing but strict attention, close
watching, prompt action and alert skill
can win his battle against death.

pathy with the objects sought to be ac-

thought that it should not be incorpor

organize the United States courts with
out extending or limiting their juris
diction. Mr.. Rogers, of Arkansas, con-
Cured in this view, and hoped that the
bill would not be encountered with any
affirmative legislation which did not
affect the simple reorganization OF the
judicial system of the government.
Pending action the committee rose, and
the house at 4:35 p. m. adjourned.

Rooms 1 and 2, 24S Hennepin avenue,
last evening, was well attended. nearly
every hOrSeman in the city of any prom
inence being present. The resignation
of r. f. Jones as secretary, handed in
at former meeting, was accepted, and
W. ID. Hartford elected temporary secre-
tary in his place. A committee
consisting of II. w. Phelps, W. S. Col
braith, S. G. Daniels and w. c..
Cushing, was appointed to try and raise
$50, 900 by subscription to go on with the
cess. Mr.. Hayward, the. owner of the
land now used as park, made the
proposition that he would lease to the
association the land for term of fif-
teen years at $500 per year. He also
said he would take $500 worth of stock
himself, and would charge nothing
for the land for two years, beginning
Nov. 1, last. MI. Adams, who
owns land a short distance below
that of Mr.. Hayward, offered to sell to
the association seventy acres at Sl,700
per acre, and to take as the first pay
ment $4,000, letting the rest run for a
term of years. This proposition was
not considered, as the association does
not want to buy any land. The first
proposition was discussed at some
length. but nothing was done, as moth
ing definite can be decided upon until
the committee appointed to raise funds
makes report.
