Northwestern Senators Want Action ON
Other Important Questions.
WAsHINGToS CRY, July 7-Several of
the new states senator's voted today
against consideration of the tariff bill.
These gentlemen do not care to have long
winded speeches made on the tariff bill,
and meanwhile have many measures
which are now pending, of interest to their
sections, fall by the wayside 1t Is also
claimed that they do not like some of the
schedules in the bill.
The Washington, Montana and North
Dakota men believe that the reduction on
raw wool is consistent with the ~continued
high tariff on manufactured wooden prod
ucts. Senator Allen says his state wants
duty on hides, and so also does Montana.
Senator Pettigrew said there should be q
duty on, hides or the tariff taken off of
leather. Another thing which Northwest
erners wish to see settled is this
federal election bill. Until that
Is settled they do not want
tariff debate. If the Senate desires TO
take it up, the Democrats will debate the
tariff until mex December. to the exclusion
of other business. So they wish to bring
the grave and reverend senator's to some
understanding of what is to be the pro-
gramme of Senate business before the
tariff bill is placed upon the unfinished
business calendar

have not been acted upon. Nine had beer
fully completed. That left sixteen road,
now uncompieted. and the House substitute
recommended forfeiture of the lands lvins
opposite such portions of the roads as ara
not now constructed. 1t was his opinion
tnat a bill of a broader character than this
could never pass the Senate and become a
law. A careful estimate was to the effect
tnat the bill would restore I, 500, 900 acres to
the public domain.
stone OF Missouri took the position that
forfeiture should be made of all lands which
mad not been earned by the railroad at the
lime liked In the granting act for the COM
piefion OF the roads. The Northern Pacific
railroad, he said, was the one most vitality
interested In this measure. He quoted
from speeches by Payson in the FORTY
eighth and forty ninth congresses uphold
ing the right OF congress to forfeit lands
unearned at the time fixed by the granting
acts, and attacked that gentleman for what
ne declared was change of 'front.' The
pending legislation of the railroad CON-
panies, especially the Northern Pacific, de-
manded OF congress. The speaker. Reed,
IN the forty-seventh congress, when chair
man OF the judiciary committee. reported
that congress had no power TO forfeit an
acre OF the Northern Pacific grant. Since
then Thomas B. Reed had been the recog.
nIzed friend and jealous champion of that
corporation on the floor of the House.
This corporation knew its friends and
stood by them most loyalty 1t was an
open secret that no influence had been
more potential in the reorganization of
the House than that exercised by the
Northern Pacific. Passage of the bill un-
der consideration was matter of the first
Importance TO this corporation. The bill
would pass. The bosses must insist upon
it. They could not do otherwise. The
restof the poor fellows on the othex side of
the aisle sat with their hands tied and their
lips silent, except when the parliamentary
joss told them that they ought to clap
their applause to his utterance, and that
they might chant a servile chorus to the
commanding tones of his majestic voice.
They must follow blindly wherever they
were led, but beyond their parliamentary
autocrat was the great constituency of the
people OF the United States. and to that
body would be carried this bill, which the
majority stood ready to betray.
Lacey of Iowa favored the pending bill.
Pending debate, the committee rose and
the House adjourned

days ago w. Spaulding, clerk of court,
this county, accompanied by an Indian
named Nogay, left here for the interior of
the reservation for the purpose of prospect
ing for coal. Intense excitement was
caused in this city today by report
brought here by Indians that SpauIding
and bis companion had been killed by
Indians. Agent Anderson at once sent out
strong posse of Indian police for the pur-
pose OF investigating the matter. Spauld-
ing intended TO go west eighty or ninety
miles. and it is believed he may have run
across party of Cheyennes from Pine
Ridge, which may have been going to join
their brothers in Montana. He has been
IN this country over twenty years and is
probably better acquainted with Indians
than any other white man.

Mr.. Bland slaudered - Railroad Land
Grant Forfeiture.
WASHINGTON CRY, July I'm the House
today Bland. rising to question OF priyi-
lege, had read dispatch stating that he
was absent from the silver conference
meeting Saturday. He read note from
Chairman Conger stating that there would
be no meeting Saturday. He did not de-
sire to be advertised as not attending to
duty when he was notified that his pres
ence was not required.
After the transaction of some other busi-
ness the House went into committee of the
whole for consideration of the bill TO for
fe1t certain lands heretofore granted for
the purpose of aiding the construction of
railroads, with the House substitute
therefor. Payson explained the bill. In its
general provisions it proposed to forfeit
and restore TO the public domain all the
public lands wherever situated. which had
been granted IN aid of construction where
railroads have not been completed at this
time. There have been thirty-seven rail-
roads aided by acts OF congress which have
not been completed within the time fixed
By congress. Twelve of those roads have
been forfeited, comprising nearly 81. .000, go
acres. That left twenty-five roads which

The Port Townsend Fiend Hiding On
Vancouver Island.
PoRT TOWNSEND, July THE story pub
lished in Seattle papers to the effect
that Cecilia, alias John Smith, the supposed
murderer of Jose Deletis, had been seen in
Seattle is net given any credit by the police
here. The murderer evidently left on the
steamer Walla WaiIa and left that vessel at
Victoria. He had plenty of time to do this,
as the Walla Walla did not leave here un-
til O'Clock in the morning and arrived at
Victoria at 7:30 O'Clock, an hour before the
crime was discovered. 1t was three hours
before description was telegraphed.
Captain James Flint, who was sent to
Victoria to assist in the hunt for the muir
derer, returned yesterday. He thinks that
the murderer is hiding in the interior of
Vancouver island.
The couRty commissioners will, in all
probability, increase the reward offered to
$3.50.
The local police have secured the adjoin-
ing country and are satisfied that the mur-
derer is not hiding in the neighborhood.

Strange Meteorological Phenomenon in I

ST. PAUL, July "A Pioneer Press special
from Pierre, S. D., says: peculiar phe-
nomenon occurred in this city last evening,
and one which seems almost miraculous.
About { 80 clouds began to gather, and in
ten minutes rain began 10 pour. accom-
panied by a strong wind. Just about the
time the rain ceased, small snakes from
twelve to sixteen inches long fell to the
ground. In various places these were
coiIed or snarled mp in peculiar fashions,
and when they struck the ground seemed
to be somewhat stunned. Several parties
killed some of the snakes and exhibited
them.
At first the fact that the snakes had
rained down was lsuged at, but subse-
qnentIy the evidence became so convincing
that il is now universally known to be true.
The snakes have peculiar blush color.
and seem TO have q peculiar light abont
their heads, looking ike halo when in
the dark. Supersttious people seem to
think the falling of the snakes an evil omen
and predict that something terrible is going
to happen.

THE FoRFEIrURE BILL.
Opposition From Missouri and Kansas
No Conclusion Reached.

No Conclusion Reached.
WAsHISGToS CRY, July THE forfeit
ure bill came up today because it was the
only privileged question that could prevent
bills under individual suspension day.
The bill was quite generally discussed.
Representatives Wilson and Hermann
were on the alert, watching the bill all
day. 1t was opposed most bitterly by
Stone of Missouri, and Anderson of Kan
sas, who seem to think that the opening OF
three and half million acres of land along
the Northern Pacific in Washington and
Oregon will help develop that country to
the detriment of their own. No conclusion
was reached before the House adjourned.
Representative Lind of Minnesota offered
an amendment to the forfeiture bill pro-
viding that all lands shall be forfeited
which were granted to the state of Mime
sofa for railroad corporations whose char
ters have been declared forfeited by the de-
cision OF the Minnesota supreme court.
