amend the alien land act 80 as to permit
foreign capital to he invested in mines in
che territories was called up in the house
Yesterday by Representative Carter, Of
Montana.
1t soon became apparent that the bill
would meet with strenuous opposition
from members of both parties. Repre-
sentative Carter and Delegate Smith were
about the only speakers in favor OF the
bill, while nearly one dozen made
speeches against 1t.
Mr.. Chipman, of Michigan, declared
hat the passage of such bill would en-
courage the miner to trade off his birth
right for a mess of pottage. Anderson, OF
Kansas and Buchanan, of New Jersey,
"ere especially vigorous in denouncing
the bill. and the morning hour expired

WASHINGTON, April l9.-The house and
senate Republican caucus committees are
hopelessly apart on the silver question.
Alter the last Intellectual meeting of the
joint subcommittee the horse contingent
reported to the full committee their faI-
ure to agree. Thereupon, Walker, of
Massachusetts, addressed the committee,
holding concessions to extreme silver men
had been made with the understanding
that something positive would be achieved,
but as they had failed to reach an agree
ment the house committee should revert
to the modified Window bill reported bv
the coinage committee. This was put as
motion which prevailed by vote OF 10
to 3. The next step will be to report to
the house Republican caucus, probably
about Monday night. Indications are
that the caucus will accept the house com
mtlee bill, and that it will pass the house.
Meahw liIe the senate Will probably pass
its bills and the matter will be turned
over to conference committee.

poses in extending the work OF the survey
over certain portions of the great plains
where irrigation is ordinarily necessary,
but here agriculture can be prosecuted
in seasons OF great rainfall without resort
to irri Cation.
The director asks for $4,000 for the
purpose OF investigation The extent to

The organization Statute of the irrga-
ton survey requires that estimates should
he made OF the cost OF constructing irrlsa.
ton works. In pursuance of these re
qulrements of the act it has been devel.
oped that one OF the most important
items of cost is involved in the use Of
hydraulic cement, which now las to he
shipped into the country from other re
gluns.
1t is believed that many OF the arid re-
gions are Of such character. that the ce-
ment can be obtained from them. The
cost of construction would I've greatly de-
creased if 1t could be procured near by,
and for this invest CATION the sum OF $l2,-
0OO is asked.
The work of the irrigation branch of
the survey was begun October 2, 1883,
and has been vigorously prosecuted since
that time in Montana, Colorado, New
Mexico, Idaho, Utah, Arizona, Nevada
and California. Tie maps Of these sur.
veys are now being drawn, and will be
r,ady for the engraver by July /. They
will cost $5U 900.

Gould and white Oaks.

Great interest has developed here in the
report that Jay Gould is about to secure
the Ell Paso-White Oaks railroad. The
acquisition Of this line by the Wall street
wizard would create something Of sen-
sation because the line is so located that,
with money back OF it, it can be used as
a thorn in the side OF most all the roads
now doing business in the southwest.
The Ell Paso Times at hand this morning
says:
Judge Joseph Masofin, Col. Heman
and Judge Davis returned yesterday from
Dallas, where they had been attending the
meeting of the exas d Pacific directors.
Judge Davis was seen by a Times reporter
and said:
Nothing definite has been accom-.
plished, and therefore there is nothing for
inc to tell you. Just wait aW hile."
From the other members of the party
the reporter obtained the same answer to
his inquiry as to what had been accom-.
plished.

expressed as to the truth of the report.
