FIFTIETH CONGRESS.
WAsHINGToN, January 81, 1883.

The Senate Committee on Finance has
decided to request that it be relieved Of
further consideration of Senator Frye's
bill "relating to imported liquors" and
that the measure be referred to the judi
ciary Committee as involving constitu-
tional question. The bill provides " that
the consent of Congress is hereby given,
and that the laws Of several States re-
lating TO the sale of distilled and fer
mented liquors within the limits OF each
state may apply TO such liquors when
they have been imported in the same
manner as when they have been manu-
featured in the United States"
MIR. Call offered resolution instruct
ing the judiciary Committee TO report
legislation to prevent the United States
courts, III managing railroads through
receivers, from defrauding creditors Of
liens by means of receivers certificates,
aud said he would address the Senate on
the subject tomorrow.
Mr.. Kenna gave notice that he would
next Thursday submit some observations
on the Presidents message and on Mr..
Sherman's reply thereto.
The Senate then took up the Blair
educational bill and was addressed by
Mr.. Evarts in its favor.
The observations which he proposed
TO make were. he said, included within a
very brief statement of his views and a
brief reference to such principal objec-
tions as he thought most worthy of the
attention of the Senate. lie could not
conceal from himself that the bill had at
previous sessions received ample illus
tration and elucidation. full argument on
constitutional questions, and full discus
sion Of topics of prudence and discre-
ton. He could not, therefore, think it
worth while to renew these agita-
tons or these discussions. He was
unable to distinguish the bill either in its
constitutionality or in the wisdom of its
methods. From the memorial OF the
trustees of the Peabody fund presented
to the two houses of Congress, and
which had the support of so competent
an adviser and so competent common
tator as Alexander II. II. Stuart, OF Vir-
ginia, those who looked at the situation
OF illiteracy in the States most TO be af-
fected by the bill had TO feel there was
no time so good as the earliest time TO
deal with the mischief and dangers
which it threatened. They were con-
fronted with proposition that either
those communities in which these
immense obligations, and burdens
were thrown were adequate TO deal
with them now and henceforth fully
and sufficiently without aid from the

WINNIPEG. MAN, January 3l.-The
latest reports from the mountains indi-
cate that there has been great loss OF life
on the Canadian Pacific, owing to the
snow-slides. The passengers coming on
the trains from Calgary bring meagre
particulars of the disaster Strong Chi
nook winds have been prevailing for a
week, and all along the line from Donald
TO Glacier snow has been coming down
on the track in tremendous quantities.
Near Palhser Station, British Columbia,
several men were caught in a slide. Only
one was dug out alive, and he was so
badly bruised and injured that he is not
expected TO recover. The mild weather
has put an efIectual stop to all through
Canadian Pacific trains, and as the noun
tain streams are considerably swollen it
may be some time before traffic is re-
sumed.

in this section Of the Schuylkill Valley
within a radius Of about twenty-five
miles of Reading was made to-day, and
the result shows that Of forty-thrce fur

and coke. or nre 50 situated that they
can receive some coal over the Penn
sylvauia railroad or from the Lchigh
mines. Three or four others are expected
to 20 out Of blast this week because 10
more anthracite coal is obtainable. OF
those already ont Of blast il is estimated
that they turned ont weekly fully 5000
tons of pig iron before the strike.
During the past twcnty-tour hours the
total shipment Of coal from the mining
regions was $50 cars This is about one
half of the daily product of the Brooke
colliery when 1t is i'll full operation.
One of the largest furnaces Of the
Brooke Iron Company, at Birdsboro' e,
went out of blast last night owing to the
difficulty in obtaininga supply OF antbra-
cite coal. The Brooke company also
to-day posted a notice of reduction Of
10 per cent. in the wages OF its nail
