ment The four men, who took their
lives In their hands when they went into

this morning without having pierced tho
Farm Hill mine. The rescuors declare
that the maps arc wrong, and that thoy

Senator Allen yesterday secured the
passage of the bill granting to the North.
ern Pacific & Irrigation Company a
right-oi-wOy through the Yakima In.
dian reservation in Washington. II was
amended somewhat by the committee,
Il clause being inserted which makes It
the duty OF tho secretary OF the interior
to tx tho ccompensation to be paid the In
dams for the riEht-of.way. and for what.
ever property may be taken In the con
struction Of the canal. Another
amendment was made correcting the
description OF the property sought to be
entered, as 1t was found that under the
terms of the bill, as originally drawn,
the right-of- way was not upon the In
dian reservation at all.

Senators Casey, Moody, Sanders and
Allen. representing North Dakotn, sout h
Dakota, Montana and Washington, will
so before the committee on appropria.
tiors to morrow, and urge the recon-
mcndotion of the public lands commit
tee tina, $500, 900 bo added to the sundry
civil bill for surveying lands In the new
states. 1t Is believed that the committee
will accept the amendment.
In this connection senator Paddock
to-day reported from The committee on
punlic lands rscom mcndation for nm
amendment to the sundry civil bill,
cutting down the amount In the house
bill for an irrigation survey from $3.50,
600 to $3.50, 600, tho $500, 600 saved here
to be applied to the land surveys
in tho new states. This amend
mcnt also contains provision tnat
the act of 1883 regulating arid lands
from settlement shall be construed TO
mean only such lands as are needed for
reservoir sites aNl canals. The con
struction placed upon the law at present
withdraws nll lands west OF the 1UCth
meridian to the Cascade mountains, and
all the Western people have objected To
this construction Of the Inv, ltis feared
that Mr.. Edmunds may make u point of
order against the proposed leg
islation, hut, In amy event.
there will bca lively fight in tho senate
upon the proposition. Director Powell
will not only make strong fight to re-
tain control OF tho lands. but will fight
harder for the $500. 900, which It is pro-
posed to deprive him of, but there Is u
growing conviction that the geological
survey hes become fungus on the gov
ernincnt, absorbing u large amount oi
money with very little return.
