The Northern Pacific Congolidation

New YORK, March 2S.-The executive
committee of the Northern Pacific met
again to-day for the purpose of further con
sideration of the proposition to operate the
Wisconsin Central under a traffic agree
ment. The original proposition was re-
iected, and a new one considerably modified
submitted.
This was discussed for several hours TO-
day, and then forwarded to the executive
officers of the companies to be further
changed. The committee then adjourned
until next week. 1t is stated that the
proposition now being considered is en-
tirely different from the one first made, and
that if any agreement is made with the Wis
consin Central, it will be just as beneficial
tothe Northern Pacific as to the Wisconsin
Central, and will not be one-sided.
1t is officially stated that the interest over
lines competing with the North ern Pacific
will be carefully considered, and that any
agreement reached will be of such char
acter as to meet the appreciation of the com
peting lines,

SENATE.

WASHINGTON. March 2S.-In the regular
session of the Senate Senator Sherman
offered q resolution, which went over, for
upon the President and inquire if he had
any other business to lay before the Senate.
Senator Co ,krell, from the select COM
mittee to inquire into the methods of bust
ness in the executive departments, made
a final report, and made statement in re-
, gard to the condition of business in some
branches of the public service.
Al the close of Senator Cockrell's re-
marks, the vice-president said the report
would be laid on the table and printed. An
objection was made to this gong on record
as precedent for the transaction of regu-
lar business at a called session.
Senator Cockrell explained that the regu-
lar session had given permission for the
presentation of this report at the called
session. This obviated the objection, and
Cali offered resolution Qaid on the table
for the present. declaring, first, that the
committees of the Senate should be organ
lied with reference to equality of states and
their rights, privileges and powers in the
Senate. Second, that Senators should not
BE assigned to more than one of the follow
ing committees: appropriations, military
affairs, naval affairs, judiciary, foreign re-
lations, finance, postofice, public lands and
commerce, until every Senator shall have
been assigned to one of them. Third, that
seniority of services shall give preference
in assignment Of committees, unless other
wise ordered by the Senate. Fourth, that
each Of the ten committees named shall be
composed of eleven Senators.
The Senate then proceeded to executive
business.
When the Senate was sitting with closed
doors the resolution allowing a clerk for
Senator Vance was reported from the COM
mittee on contingent expense, and adopted.
OEvarts, from the literary committee, re
ported preamble and resolution, which
was adopted, that the Senate accept the
invitation of the committee having in
charge the centennial inauguration of
George Washington to participate in the
celebration, and that committee be APP
pointed to represent the Senate. AT 40
pm. the Senate adjourned.

Business Methods in the Departments.

WASHINGTON, March Ex-senator Cock
rell, chairman of the select committee on
the business of the executive departments,
to-day submitted to the Senate a second re
port The committee in its previous report
suggested as the most feasible and prac-
tical remedy for defective methods of bust
ness that the secretaries of trearury and
war should appoint commissioners in their
respective departments to consider and re-
wise the method of business. These COM
missioners were afterward appointed and
their reports, which were transmitted to
the committee, were laid before the Senate
to-day as part of the committees report.
Secretary Fairchild, in a letter dated
January IS last, in transmitting to the
treasury the commissioners report, says:
THE commission has reported to him from
time to time, recommendations which he
has caused to be put into operation, or
which have been adopted by the bureau
officers of their own motion"
The Senate committee endorses the
several recommendations of the commits
sion. There is great and useless delay and
unnecessary red taEe in the dispatch of
certain work in the war department, the
committee says. and by way of illustration
shows that one specified case was handled
by officers and clerks seVentv-siX times,
ana lncIruinS messenger services ninety
nine times.
With reference to this case the report
says: with all due Difference it does
seem to the committee that in the transac-
ton and disposition of this item of bust
ness it has passed through too many hands,
and through the same hands too often; and
that there have been too many entries
recorded and notations made, and tCo much
valuable time and labor consumed and ex
pended; and that much simpler and
shorter system could be devised, which
would be equally accurate and consume
much less time and cause much less eXpendi-
ture of labor
The committee in concluding its report
says while it has not accomplished all that
it desired, yet it hopes the good work al
ready begun will be more successfully car
ried out by the standing committee Of the
Senate on the organization, conduct and eX-
penditures of the executive departments
recently created.

Governor Beaver at Home.

HARRIsBURG, Pennsylvania, March Is
Governor Beaver was at his desk in the ex-
ecutive department at the usual hour this
morning. He smiled at the reference to
Yesterdays affair in Washington. 1--WE

lasted between two and three hours this
afternoon and was confined largely to a
discussion of the nomination of Murat
Halstead to be minister to Germany.
Before that came up, the nomination of
John C. New to be consul general to Lon
don, and Lewis Wolfey to be governor of
Arizona, both of which were pending, were
confirmed.
The final attempt of the opposition to de-
feat News confirmation was based upon
the assertion that his paper, the Indian
GpOIiS Journal, had published articles re
1ecting upon the private character of Pres
ident Cleveland.
This charge was warmly denied by Sen
ator Voorhees,, of Indiana, and the nomina-
ton was confirmed.
The committee on foreign relations
favorably reported all diplomatic nominal
tons of yesterday, but in case of Halstead
the report was not unanimous. On motion to
confirm his nomination, the nays were in the
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Teller Plumb, ingalls,,
Farwell and Cullom voting with the Demo
Gratis. Sherman moved to reconsider the
votes, and on that motion long debate en-
sued, in the course of which the ground of
the objection to Halstead was disclosed.
When the Senate refused to enter
upon an investigation of the election
of Senator Payne of Ohio, Halstead,
whose parer, the Cincinnati Commercial
Gazette, had strongly urged investigat on,
made uncomplimentarv illusions to the
Republicans who voted against the investi-
CATION. The feeling against him on the
part of Senators who fell under his dis
pleasure at that time, is very bitter, and
one of them is reported to have said to
President Harrison this morning that Hal
stead could not be confirmed. That Senators
whom he had criticised would not vote for
him.
A motion to reconsider was pending when
the Senate adjourned. The vote on his
confirmation was taken before there were
any speeches.

Silk Culture in the United States.

WASHINGTON, March 2S.-The report of
the President and treasurer of the Women's
Silk Culture Association of United States
for the past year to the commissioner of
agriculture, has been printed by Mrs.
John Lucas, president. To an intelligent
observer the rapid progress of this indus
try seems impossible. Orchards of null
berry trees must be grown to perfection
that will admit of liberal picking of
leaves before the first real start can begin.
The industry during the past year, much
of which has been of desultory character,
yet leading to good results, and muuh as
that with few trees. People learning to
to breed cocoons and, tree plant
ing is becoming a systematized
part of the effort. Until this
is general, no increase of product can occur.

bering over fifty, appeared at the Office and

FOURTH-CLAsS PosTMAsTERs.
First Assistant Postmaster-General ClarksOn
on His Predecessor.


| WASHINGTON, March 2S.-F'irst Assistant
Postmaster General Clarkson was ques-
toned to-day concerning certain nespaper
criticisms directed against his policy in the
appointment of fourth1class postmasters.
In answer he said that practically all of the
changes thus far have been made for other
| than political reasons. A large number of
appointments made during the last admin
| istration were bad.
A considerable number had been found to
be delinquent in their accounts. Other
changes have been made in order to secure
better locations for Offices and in many
cases appointments had been made with a
view to the removal of offices from the vi
cinity of saloons. In every case of removal
there had been good and sufficient cause
therefor
Perhaps he added, sit is not generally
known that my predecessor, within a month
or six weeks prior to March 4th, made
over thousand appointments of fonrth-
class pOstmasters, for the purpose, appa-
rently, of forcing them upon this admins
tration. This course has not been pursued,
to my knowledge, by any previous admins
tratiOn.
During the last several weeks of Presi-
dent Arthur's term not single fourth-class
postmaster was appointed, except in rare
instances, where the eXigencieS of the ser
vice demanded it; and when Postmaster
General Hatten resigned there were more
than three thousand designations on file in
his Office.
1.-THE commissions of thousands of APP
pointees of my predecessor were, of course,
withheld, and these vacancies, with others,
are now being filled as rapidly as possible"

The Lydecker Court Martial.

WASHINGTON, March 2S-In the Lydecker
court martial to-day, Robert Cowen testi-
fed how the work was hurried along by
his employer, which accounted for its bad
quality in many cases. Thomas Davis,
stone mason, told how nice little bulkheads
were built to conceal bad work, and how a
guide always gave warning of tae approach
of Lieutenant Townsend or Colonel Wirlin.
If Major Lydecker had visited the tunnel
daily his men could not have done half as
much bad work as they did. Thomas
O'Brien, sub-inspector, testified that he
had received 81 per day extra pay from the
contractor, in addition to his salary from
the government. He figured on the pay
rolls under fictitious names Major Ly-
decker did not go through the tunnel while
the witness was there.

The United States could in very short
time raise not only its own silk but much
more, and this accomplished at least $780,
000, 900 per annum would be gained. Yet
the protection of the few raises hue and
cry against this new industry, although
there is no reason, climatic, mechanical or
otherwise, why it could not be SUCCESSFULLY
done. The report of the treasurer, Mrs H.
P. Taylor, shows that during the year
nearly $500 pounds of cocoons were bought
of les persons in Arkansas, Florida,
Georgia, Illinois, Indiana Iowa, Kansas,
Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota,
Missouri, Nebraska, New Jersey, New
York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania,
South Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia.
These were distributed 1855 mulberry
