CONTESTED ELECTIONS.
Congressman Oates Proposes to Consider and
Decide on Them in Caucus.

Especial to THE HERALD.-Examiner Dispatch !
WASHINGTON, April 21.-Congressman
Oates, Of Alabama, who is one of the fair
est and ablest Democrats in public life,
proposes an original method of dealing
with the contested election cases in the
next Congress.
Colonel Oates proposition is for the Dem
ocratic caucus to appoint a committee to
consider the various contests that are to
come up. In his opinion, that committee
should examine the facts i'll the case
Whenever they. find that the Democrat has
no right to the certificate, he should be so
informed and his case abandoned. On the
other hand, whenever the facts are favor
able to the Democrat, or a reasonable doubt
exists, the minority should stand together
and prevent the unseating of the member
elect, even if the entire time of the next
Congress has to be consumed. The Re
publcans, he says, have never hesitated
about blocking Legislation when they
thought one of their friends had fair
title to seat, as they did in the FELTON,
case in California last winter.

Especial to THE MISUNDERSTANDING Dispatch. !
washington, April 22.-One Of the can
didates for the Corean mission IS Mr. John
Fowler, Of Massachusetts. He is only
thirty-two years old, but has been nine
years in the navy, and has passed several
years past in Corea as the representative
of large business firms He is endorsed
for the place by Senator's Dawes and Hoar,
Governor Ames, ex Governors Long, Rice
and CASTOR: several members Of the Mas
sachusetts delegation in Congress; Rev.
A. A. Miner D. D.; Rev. Alfred Plumb,
D. D.; Rev. S. E. Herrick, D. D., and
many Others His endorsement from bust
ness men interested in the Corean trade is
especially strong, representing, it is stated,
an invested capital of S50,00O,OOO
The Corean mission is not specially at
tractive one to a person who has no special
interest in the country. Hon. VIM. o.
Bradley, of Kentucky, was nominated by
the President, but declined. There are two
or three applicants who have papers at the
department, but Mr.. Fowler's knowledge
of the country makes his case a strong
one

the Tact of 81, 1889: Would not the sum
of S350,000 be available for such a
purchase, the balance to be paid as soon as
Congress should make the additional appro-
priation, which it has virtually agreed to
| do, if it has not in fact done so by the terms
of the last named actn
SIN reply to this will say there can be
no controversy about the S350,000 being
available for the purchase of the site; and,
upon a. cursory view, it might seem that a
contract could be made for the ground to
the extent of SS00,000, which seems to be
anticipated by the act of January 81, 1882
but when 1 come to examine the stringent
provisions of section 3679, / cannot see how
any contractscan be made for the purchase
of ground in excess of an appropriation
made by Congress. That section is as fol-
lows: No department of the government
shall eXpend in any one fiscal year any sum
in excess of the appropriations made by
Congress for that fiscal year, or involve the
government in any contract for the future
payment of money in excess of such appro-
priation.'
st may be said that this section has
reference only to what are called annual
the section evidently has reference
to the appropriation made for the
fiscal year, but the latter part is in the
alternative and prohibits the involving of
the government in any contract for the
future psymer t, of money in excess Of the
appropriations.
1.-THE wisdom and propriety of such a law
cannot be doubted, otherwise any of the
departments might involve the government
by contracting to pay an amount that Cen
gress would not be willing to appropriate.
1t is true that in this case Congress com
mitted itself to an expenditure of $780, 200,
but the next Congress might fix still
another limit.
Il am of the opinion that the commission
ers who have been or may be appointed to
select and purchase a site for said building
can proceed to make such selection, and do
any and all things they deem proper and
right in connection Herewith up to the
point of making contract, but cannot in
volve the government in any liability in
excess of the sum already appropriated, to-
wit, $350,000. Respectfully yours,
IN. j. DURHAM, comptroller"

Especial to THE Observation-Disclosures Dispatch
WASHINGTON, April 21.-There is consid-
cradle uneasiness in naval circles con,
corning the non-arrival of the ship NIonon,
gahela at Samoa.
1t will be remembered that the ship left
Mare island navy yard on February 18th,
loaded with stores for the feet at Samoa.
Under ordinary circumstances and with
favorable winds, which prevail at this sea
son, the passage should have been made in
twenty days at the outside. TIE distance
from San Francisco to Apia is 4 POO miles,
but it is not unlikely that the ship was
caught in the hurricane which visited Apia
with such disaster to the war ships in the
Samoan waters.
The official report of Admiral Kimberly
was received at the navy department Sat
urday afternoon. It was dated March 2lst,
but no mention was made whatever of the
arrival of the MO1ongahela up to that time,
but no apprehension ought to be felt on
that score, as the ship had been at sea but
days, and it is certainly time she was
heard from. A steamer leaves Apia every
fortnight or Auckland, the nearest cable
station. a cablegram was received from
Lieutenant Wilson, under the date Of April
10th, informing the department of the
charter Of ship to bring the shipwrecked
men to San Francisco. Up to that time,
the MonOngahela had not arrived. 1t is
the opinion of naval officers that the
MonOngahela was caught in the track of
the hurricane, and probably was not far to
the northeast of Apia when the storm
broke.
The Monongahela is regarded as one of
the fastest sailers in the navy, and Com
mordre George E. Wingate, who is in com
mand of the ship, is looked upon as a capa-
BILE and efficient officer. In addition to a
full supply of stores of every description,
the Monongahela carried large deck load
Of coal for use by the vessels of the fleet.

| Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch
WASHINGTON, April 21.-It is said to be
not improbable that Canadian freight cars
coming into the United States and running
over United States railroads will now have
to pay the regular rate of duty at points of
entry.
The treasury department, it is reported,
has had the matter under consideration for
some time, in fact, ever since the fisheries
trouble, but at that time it was considered
as a possible retaliatory measure, while
now, if adopted, it would simply be in ac-
cordance with the protective tariff ideas of
the administration, and to protect the
United States car builders.
1t might also be used as an ugly clause in
case the Interstate commerce com
mission should find Canadian
roads refractory when the Senate
committee, which is to investigate their
business in this country, gets with them.
In preparation for this move on the part of
the treasury department, an account has
been kept at the home points OF entry,
notably at Detroit, of the dutiable freight
cars belonging to Canadian roads which
have comein.
From these reports it is estimated that
an average of three hundred such cars
come in daily at Detroit and Port Huron,
Michigan, and at Niaguara Falls, and that
fully 5000 dutiable Canadian cars
are in constant use on the roads in the
United States, and not one of them has
paid cent for duty.
There are three classificatiOns under
which these cars may come, and these do
not appear to be precedents to show which
it viii DE. As manufactures of wood, they
would pay 30 per cent. ad valorum; as
manufactures Of iron, 10 per cent, and rs
carriages 80 per cent.

A GREAT ARGUMENT.
Mr. Richards Speech in Favor of Nilsen and
Constitutional Liberty.

WAsHINToN, April 22.-[Special to THE
HERALD. I'm the supreme court to-day,
in the case of Nielsen, Solicitor-Gen-
eral jerks concluded his argument,
contending that to constitute unlaw-
full cohabitatiOn and adultery one con
tinuous offense, the essential elements of
the one must be embraced by the others
that, as Capitalization might exist without
adultery and vice versa, they were neces-
sarily distinct Offenses.
Richards followed, closing the case. He
insisted that sexual intercourse was in
Yolved in unlawful rehabilitation. 1t was
essentially part of the same transaction,
and while cohabitatiOn might exist without
marital intercourse, such intercourse be-
came a material part of cOhabitation, con-
stituting it one and the same Offense. He
contended that if an Indictment be had for
any part of a continuous o1fense, a second
indictment for any other part or the whole
of said offense was barred, and vice versa
He made an exhaustive review of the
American and English authorities on the
question of being put twice in jeopardy for
the same offense, demonstrating that if
the doctrine contended for were not estab-
lished, constitutional security could not
exist
