READS THE RIOT ACT.
Judge Cooley Tells the Railroad
Men Their Duty.
A CRIME CAN NOT BE JUSTIFIED.
Managers of Companies are Told that They
Must Obey the Law, If They Lose
Business-The Q. Reduction.

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-The inter state
commerce commission resumed the hearing
in the matter of railroad rates and the
methods by trunk lines in computing them.
The managers of number of lines were
examined, disclosing the fact that in order
to secure export business the figures pub
lished in the last rates are not to be main
tanned The roads which maintained the
rates lost most of their export business.
That of the Lake Shore road dropped from
30 per cent. to I.
Chairman Cooley, said to the managers,
in part: st is very manifest that there
have been things going on here that should
stop at once. We must compliment Mr..
Hayes for coming forward and stating
frankly just what the facts were as regards
his own road. We should have been better
satisfied if like course had been taken by
all the others. They ought all do, no doubt,
as Mr. Hayes will do-namely, endeavOr
to comply with the law. Here
is the law and it is not for you, hearafter,
to say to say to US that there are practical
obstacles in the way of complying with 1t,
That you would lose business by so doing
and all that sort of thing. We are not con
cerned in that. We do not wish to do any
thing to make you lose business. At the
same time we cannot accept it as valid
excuse, that if you obey the law you will
thereby lose business. The time ought to
be considered has gone by when a
manager can come to US and say
L named this rate and l did. it
regardless of law, because my company had
done the same thing. There is no reason
Tor that practice. If wrong is done by one
road to the injury of another the proper
method of redress is not to duplicate the
wrong, but to 90 before committee in
authority, whether it be the commission or
a voluntary association, with the complaint
of the wrong. One crime in railroad circles
is no more to be excused by another than
one theft is to be justified by another"
Judge Cooley announced that for certain
southern roads that had asked hearing, a
continuance of the Investigation for two
weeks had been granted.
The commission did not wish to express
an opinion that would effect the interest of
those roads until they had been fully heard,
but in the meantime the practices IN the
north which have all appeared uniustitiable,
should not be continued.
i trust" he added, that after saying
so much we shall not, two weeks hence,
have complaints brought to US that these
practices have been going on. In the mean
time parties must have taken redress of
wrongs into their own hands when the
legality of what they complain Of is, TO say
the least, very doubtful"
They ought also to remembnr that while
we continue this case for tw' eeks, the
law is not suspended. THAI = ais in
force as well as its penalties.

SENATE.

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-The Senate
opened with Vice-President Morton in the
chair. Senator Gibson's resolution hereto
fore presented for the appointment of a
select committee on relations with Mexico
and Central America was taken up. Senator
Gibson defended himself against the charge
that he wanted the committee appointed in
order, as chairman he might go on a junket
to Mexico.
After further talk the resolution was re-
ferred to the committee on commerce, and
the Senate proceeded to executive business.
When the doors were reopened, after
very short interval, the Senate proceeded
to the consideration of the resolution
heretofore offered for the appointment of
select committee on relations of the United
States with Cuba and other West India
islands. The discussion turned on the ques
ton of competency Of the Senate in called
executive session, to enter upon the per-
Torrance of legislative functions.
Senator Sherman said the precedent on
that point all turned, not in the power of
the Senate to do so, but whether it was wise
to enter upon legislature questions at an
extraordinary session. He thought not
After further discussion without disposing
of the question, the pending motion being
to refer the resolution to the committee on
foreign relations, the Senate again pro

Must Protect the Salmon.

WASHINGTON, March 1S.-The secretary
of the treasury has issued circular to the
customs officers, calling attention to the
provisions of the act "for the protection OF
salmon fisheries in Alaska" AMI instruct
ing them to see that it's requirements are
strictly observed, and that no dams, barri-
cades or other distractions are placed in
any of the rivers of Alaska, with the pur-
pose of the result of preventing or impeding
the ascent of salmon or other anadromeus
species to their spawning grounds; and
should any such distractions be discovered,
to warn them to Immediately remove them
and thereafter to report persons to the
United States attorney of Alaska for pros
ecution under the law. Officers of the rev.
enue marine service on duty in Alaska are
also requested, so far as possible, to assist
in the enforcement of the statute.

Italy, which allows non-C Catholics to attack
the Mother church, but prevents her from
defending herself. Leo expresses graft

THE SHIP FRANCKLIN.
She will be Sent to New York for the Cen
tennial.

tennial.
Especial to the Observation-Disclosures Dispatch ]
WASHINGTON, March 1S.-The navy de-
partment will send the old battle ship
Francklin to New York to take part in the
centennial celebration there April 80 The
F'rancklin was finished at the Boston navy
yard in 1865, after remaining ten years on
the stocks.
When Admiral Farragut went to assume
command of the European squadron at the
close of the war he selected the Francl1lin
for his flagship, and with the Augusta and
the double barreled monitor Miantonomah,
left the United States and made his memOr-
able trip visiting all the principal ports of
the old world.
The old ship has been used as a receiving
ship for a long time at the navy yard at
Norfolk, and was sent up to Yorktown
when the centennial took place there in
1881 She is 263 feet long and fifty-four
feet wide. Her displacement is $40 tons,
and in the main battery are twenty-five
9-inch guns, with six 12-pounder howitzers
in the secondary. She is ship rugged and
even now is considered good model.
With her sister-ship, the Minnesota, now
used as training ship at New York, she
will represent the old navy in striking con-
trast to the two new steel cruisers, Boston
and Chicago, which will also be there.

United States Consul Kennedy Reports on the
Chinese Riot.

Chinese Riot.
WASHINGTON, March 1S.-The secretary
of state has received the report of Frank
Kennedy, United States consul general at
Shanghai, on the recent riot at Chin Kiang,
China. 1t appears that on February the
consul general received from Consul Jones
at Chin Kiang telegraphic news of the
riot, and the threatened attack on the con-
sulate and request for protection. AS
there was no American man-of-war i'm
mediatedly available the British consul
general opened communication with, and an
English man-of-war was started from
Shanghai on February for Chin Kiang.
On the day the British consulate and
four other houses at Chin Kiang were
burned and the Office of the American con-
sui Quilted and looted by mob of about
6O0 Mr.. Jones and family escaped injury.
These facts were communicated to every
minister at Pekin. The consul general at
Shanghai also reported that there was a
late rumor that more buildings had been
destroyed. Among them were the resi-
dences of some American millionaries.
