Ter, U. n. Camp and John E. Parsons.
The name Of William Morris was called
but he was not present, and the chair
man asked that the reporters note the
fact. John E. Parsons was the first
witness. He said he was a lawyer of
New York city, and had drawn up the
deed of the trust forming what was
known as the Sugar Refiners' company
He had true copy of the instrument,
save that there was omitted from the
copy the amounts of the total capital
held by the various members of the
trust, as it was held that this private in
formation was not necessary for any
purpose of legislation. The instrument
having been read by the committee
clerk, Mr.. Parsons stated that the in
strument was practically executed Oct
1, 1888, although certain of the sigma
lures were not fixed until some months
later. He explained in answer to ques-

WAsHINGToN,M March S.-For the fourth
time this session Knute Nelson played
unanimous consent upon the house.
Chairman Peel and other members of
the Indian affairs committee gave way
to the public land committee and cen
sidered themselves fortunate to get
next Tuesday as an additional day for
their committee. Nelson quietly bided
his time, and just after o'clock, when
the house was about to adjourn, asked
unanimous consent to consider small
bill from committee. Fortunately
NO ONE OBJECTED,
and he Immediately reported his bill for
opening all Indian reservations in Min
nesota, except White Earth and Red
Lake, and to so much of these also as is
not required for allotments in severaity,
and Mr.. Nelson says: you say | am
one of the happiest men here to-day.
Eve worked for this measure the past
five years against all kinds Of OPP
position. I believe the bill will
also pass the senate soon and this will
land in Minnesota" Senator Dawes
has reported Nelson's bill from the
house to the senate favorably granting
the right of way through the Chippewa
and Red Lake reservations to the Du-
luth, Rainy Lake 81 Southwestern Rail
way company, with amendments re-
curing that the consent of the Indians
shall be obtained and the company
shall not seek further cessiOn of In
dian lands under penalty Of forfeiture
of the grant.
SENATOR DAVIS
spoke eloquently on the dependent pen
sion bill, opposing all amendments.
He said: ''These amendments are
offered by superserviceable friends of
the bill. They intend giving settlers
more than they ask, merely weighing
down the bill with additions which will
not pass this senate, but if the bill as
amended should pass, it cannot secure
the consent of the house nor of the
president" He characterized all the
amendments as perniciOuS, and urged
the passage of the bill as prepared by
the Grand Army and reported from the
committee. The galleries were crowded
and applauded him.
CONGRESSMAN MACDONALD
was surprised when entering from the
committee room to find up for consider
alton and debate the bill for the
purchase of the swords of Gen. Shields
and no one ready to make any remarks
for Minnesota. Helm turn, although I'M
prepared, alike surprised friends and ac-
quaintances by unexpectedly delivering
an eloquent speech in behalf of the pur-
chase of these swords and cOmmemOra-
tive of the life and character of the dis
tinguiShed IriSh-American citizen, who
once represented Minnesota in the
United States senate. His arguments
were strong and his voice heard in all
the galleries. Marked attention was
given and the bill advocated by him
passed.

IMPORTED ENGINEERS.
A Number Who Came to st. Paul
and Then Refused to Work.

All day long yesterday the striking
engineers and their brethren filled the
office of the Merchants hotel and
eagerly discussed every bit of informa-
ton brought them by trusty messengers.
Men were constantly arriving from Chi
cago, chock full of news. and were in
stantly grabbed and spirited away to
some quiet corner, where they quickly
disgorged. The striking engineers are
not attempting 10 secure positions on
other roads, as their needs and
those Of their families are
amply provided for by the brotherhood.
Even if the brotherhood gave them no
support as an organization they would
be cared for by the individual members.
1t is all explained in the language of
big-hearted engineer of prominence,
who said:
Il am making good wages and can
take care of three or four of them my
self"
Early in the day nine engineers, not
members of the brotherhood, arrived in
st. Paul from Council Bluffs to accept
positions on the Chicago, Burlington &
Northern. They were headed by man
named }. w. McCrue, and immediately
looked over the grounds aud investi-

His Senate Enemies.


WASHINGTON, March S.-The presi-
dent to-day sent to the senate the fol-
lowing message:
'To the Senate: A copy of the fol-
lowing resolution passed by the senate
on the first day of the present month
was delivered to me on the Sd inst:
Resolved, That in view of the difficulties
and embarrassments that have attended the
regulation of the immigration Of Chinese
laborers to the United States under the limi-
tations of our treaties with China, the presi-
dent of the United States be requested to
negotiate treaty with the emperor of China,
containing provision that no Chinese labor
ers shall enter the United States.
1.-THE Importance of the subject re-
ferred to in this resolution has by no
means been overlooked by the executive
branch of the government, charged
under the constitution with the formu-
lation of treaties with foreign countries.
Negotiations with the emperor of China
for treaty such as is mentioned in said
resolution was commenced many
months ago, and has been since con-
tinued. The progress of the negotia-
ton thus inaugurated has heretofore
been freely communicated to such men,
berS OF the senate or its committee on
foreign relations as sought information
concerning the same. 1t is, however,
with much qualification that ! deem
myself justified in expressing to the
senate in response to its resolution, the
hope and expectation that treaty will
soon be concluded concerning the immi-
grafton of Chinese laborerS which will
meet the wants of our people and the
appreciation of the body to which it will
be submitted for confirmation.
