civil appropriations bill-Senators Allison,
Hale and Gorman-was in session to-day. The
committee gave hearing to Prof Gallaudet,

CAPITOL TOPICS.
A PENSION FOR MRS. GEN. BARNES

A PENSION FOR MRS. GEN. BARNES.
A bill granting pension Of 500 per month
to Mrs. Mary 7. Barnes, widow of the late Briga-
der and Brevet-MajorGen Joseph K. Barnes,
surgeon-general of the United States army was
introduced by Senator Faulkner to-day. The
pension, if granted, is to be in lieu of all other
pensions now received by Mrs. Barnes.
NERVE TORTURE IN THE SENATE.
Senator Spooner does not often indulge in
satirical remarks. but he is credited with max
ing a comment on Capt. Bassett's increased
salary which sounds as though there was either
humor or sympathy, or both. in it. brother
Senator remarked this morning that the vener-
able captain seemed to be more vigorous in
the performance of his duties since the Senate
had added $500 to his salary, and then he added,
hut he deserves that extra compensation"
Deserves it," said Mr.. Spooner, Il should
say he did. Any man whose nerves could sue
cessfuly withstand the shock of fifty-eight
years of Senatorial debate ought to be paid ten
time as much as Bassett is"
THE CREEK INDIANS LANDS IN OKLAHOMA
Senator Dawes. from the committee on In
dian affairs. to-day reported favorably with an
amendment the bill to ratify and confirm an
agreement with the Creek Indian nation for the
cession of a part of their reservation to the

the lands acqnired by such cession shall be q
part of the public demain, and shall only be
disposed Of In accordance with the law regu-
. lating homestead entries. The amendment
also provides that any person who may enter
upon any part Of the ceded lands prior to the
time that the same are opened to settlement
shall not be permitted to occupy or to make
entry of such lands or lay any claim there to.

provisions into effect,

Land Grant FOrfeitures.
HOPES OF AN AGREEMENT BY THE CoNFEREEs on
THE PENDING BILL.


THE PENDING BILL.
The conferees on the general Immigrant
forfeiture bill came together to-day, and while
they adjourned withoutreaching an agreement,
a spirit of concession was shown which gives
promise of an ultimate agreement. Mr. Stone,
who has heretofore steadfastly adhered to the
original House proposition, to-day intimated
that he was prepared to accept the Senate bill
ii an additional section were attached provid-
ing for test suit in the United States Supreme
Court to decide the question as to the power OF
Congress to declare the extensive forfeiture
proposed by the House-allland opposite those
sections of the railroad lines uncompleted
within the time fixed by the granting acts.
Should the court declare in favor of the House
view, Mr.. Stone held that the next congress
should Immediately proceed to pass the COM
plete forfeiture bill.
THE SENATE CoNFEREEs
did not think well of this proposition. They
held that the effect of the passage of the bill in
that shape would be to induce settlers to 20 in
great numbers upon the railroad lands, pre-
pared to take up homesteads upon the success
full issue of the suit. Bui if the decision of the
court should sustain the railroads in their
holdings (Which the Senators expected would
be the case) then these settlers would suffer
great hardship, and be placed in a position
similar to that of the settlers upon the Des-
Moines river lands. To sustain this view the
Senate conferees cited Oklahoma as a case in
point The tendency of the Oklahoma bill,
even though that measure expressly provides
that settlers were not to be admitted to the
proposed territory in advance of its creation,
had caused a number of people to 60 upon
the land and to gather a vast number upon the
border line. The conferees will meet again
next Tuesday.

The Senate Tariff Bill.
A REPORT FROM THE WAYS AND MEANS CoMMIrTEE
EXPECTED NEXT WEEK.

REPORT FROM THE WAYS AND MEANS Committee
EXPECTED NEXT WEEK.
The ways and means committee expect to re-
port to the House on the tariff bill ON Monday
or Tuesday. The figures prepared by the
Treasury department show that the reductions
by the Senate bill amount to only s13 0O0, 900,
not taking into account the increase made by
the package clause, which it is estimated would
make an increase Of eight million or ten mil
lion. This would make the reduction by the
Senate bill, according to these figures, but Ave
million three million.
The Senate estimate Of reductions was some
thing over Gas, 000, 900, and it is out OF these
same figures that the lower estimate comes.
This discrepancy Is accounted for by the fact
that in the columns of figures for addition In
the Senate estimate some of the amounts, "a in
the case of pocket knives. were put in foot
notes, and therefore not included in the addi-
ton.
The indications are that the committee re-
port will be confined to q recommendation that
the Senate amendments be rejected for reasons
stated,
