DEs MONIES. To-, Feb. 2o.-The case
Of the Indictment of Gov. Larabee for

court this afternoon, but the attorney
for the prosecution said that the I'M
pertance OF the case demanded that
nothing be done with it at present. The

ing a certain document. The question
was whether it was privileged COM
munication, and if so, whether it was
selected from the mass Of testimony III
the Office would have to be considered.
He thought that the case onght to be con-
tinued for day or two at least.
Counsel for the governor said that the
defendant in this case eourted the full

accept any technical advantage. Will
lam larabee had been indicted not as a
person, but because he was the gov
eInor of Iowa. and had circulated cer-
tain matters in the line of official duty
and by virtue of his Office. The entire
state is Interested in full, fair and
prompt trial. The governor desired to

PRESIDENTS IN A PICKLE.
Indications That the fEGen." Tlemen's
Agreement Will Be Abandoned.
SEVERAL REFUSE TO SIGN.
The International Traffic Association in
Session at Chicago Adjusting
Mexico Rates.

CHICAGO, Feb. 20-AppearanceS to
night are all but decisive that the pro-
posed Interstate Commerce Railroad as
sociation will not be organized. When
the presidents of the Western railroads
re-conyened at the Grand Pacific hotel
to-day the committee appoi nted to OBJ
tain the signatures of the FIVE dissent
ing companies to the proposed
agreement, reported that their eff
forts had been unsuccessful. The
only responses received by the commit
tee were from the Illinois Central. posi-
lively refusing to join tho association
and the Wisconsin Central reaffirming
its position that it would join only on
condition that the Chicago, Burlington
& Northern signed the agreement.
Nothing has been heard from the Bur
lington & Northern, and there is now
little hope that it can he whipped into
line. Rather than ANONYMOUSLY aban-
don the entire scheme for the much
heraided ''gentlemen's agreement" it
was proposed in effect to at least make
a show of perfecting the agreement,
and organization of such companies as
had already signed. This was agreed
to, and committee Was ap-
pointed composed OF Messrs. Hughitt,
McMullin, Stone. Truesdale, Newman
and Howe Ito make such changes of de-
tail in the plan of agreement as might
be necessary or eXpedient in view of
the failure to obtain the assent of GER
tain companies thereto" This COM
mittee was instructed to report at IL a.
m. tomorrow. Meantime, the erstwhile
advocates of the 'tgentle,nen's agree
ment" are busy pointing out that its
virtual failure does not amount to SO
very much after all. The ground for
this curious assertion is that the agree
ment of the Western Freight asSocia-
tion covers. practically. the same terri
tory. is much more binding in its provis-
ions, and is being lived up to satisfac-
torily.

Laughter. -
Senator Kellar- Yes: and two weeks
after. More laughter.l
Senator Durant continuing said he
recognized the propriety of self-gOvern-
mcnt. but to drink q little too much was
not a crime. The bill aimed to make
drunkenness crime, and upon the
fourth conviction send a man to the
state prison. He did not support
drunkenness; far from it; but he did
say if this bill were passed it would op-
crate harshly upon the poor man, while
the rich man would GO free. He con-
cluded: 81 offer this amendment in
good faith. because if that bill becomes
law it will require 100000 to establish
institutions wherein men who nave
been guilty of social excess can be pun
ished. And, another thing, this bill al
lows an officer to go into mans own
house and arrest him for taking too
much wine
Senator Kellar styled the bill three
horse affair, when Senator Scheffer re-
Piled:
This bill does not prescribe that
men shall no longer enjoy themselves
in conyiyial way; it does not prescribe
til6l litC ttCt vi I'll ilthllS 10 hlollS. pht
does prescribe that getting drunk is
wrong. A constitutional drunkard is
the enemy of society, and | am in dead
earnest about this bill. Drunkenness
should be made diSgraceful offenSe:
a drunkard should be made person
that is looked down upon by the COM
munitY. In some of the older states So
ciety does that: but here we must do by
law what we fail tn tio Inv nuhlic ODjn-
ion. II the bill becomes law it will do
more in the cause of temperance than
anything we have had before this
senate"
The amendment was defeated, and
Senator Durant offered a second one,
which Secretary Fuller read: "To add
the words having been fined or I'M
prisoned three times such person shall
thereafter
@Be hanged" blurted out Senator
Keller, and the senate became conyuised
with laughter.
Excepted from the provisions of
this law" concluded Secretary Cutter.
The amendment was also lost.
Senator Edwards agreed that dunk
enneSS should be made an odlouS Of
fense. but deprecated the stringency of
the bill.
Senator Eaton n-Drunkenness should
only be fnabie offeEse.
Senator Day-This bill is aimed at the
rich and so-called respectable drunk
ard.
Senator Goodrich-Butit It's too radical
and extreme.
II was. therefore, agreed that the bill
should be re-referred to the Judiciary
committee for further amendment.
