DEPENDENT PENSION BILL.

The Report of the Conference Committee
Agreed to by tho House.
WAsnlNGToN, D. G., June lin the
House to-day Speaker Reed announced
the appointment Of Mr.. Mills, Of Texas,
as member Of the Committee on Rules,
and Mr.. Turner, Of Georgia, as q mem.
Der Of the Committee on Ways and
Means, to fll vacancies occasioned by
/. the resignation OF Mr.. Carlisle.
Mr.. Morrill,, OF Kansas presented the
conference report on the Senate Deepen.
dent Pension bill.
Mr.. Springer, of Illinois, asked that
the report 20 over until tomorrow in
order that it might be printed in the
Record and members be given IN oppor-
tunity TO examine its provisions, but Mr..
Morrill, objected. The previous ques-
lion was ordered: yeas, ll9; nays, 70.
Mr.. Morrill, In explanation Of the re-
port stated that the conference commit
tee had struck out the dependent feature
/ OF the Senate bill and the service feature
OF tho House bill. The measure rs de-
termined upon was not exactly what he
would desire, but it was the best that he
could obtain. 1t would distribute $685.
100000 among the poor soldiers OF the
nation.
Mr.. Yoder, OF Ohio, protested against
the conference report, holding that il
. ignored the demands OF the soldier, left
his PRAYER unanswered and buried in
the basement OF the Capitol his petitions
for per diem rate Of pensions.
Mr.. Springer, OF Illinois, entered q
Vigorous protest against the manner in
WHICH the bill was brought before the
House. There was no opportunity
offered 10 members to examine its pro
visions. As he viewed the bill 1t was
an instance OF the laboring OF the noun,
y tain md the bringing forth OF very
It, insignificant mousse it..t.,a
MIR. Turner, Of New York, said the
Morrill, bill as it passed the House, was
Z; n respectable measure, because it had q
respectable father; but;the pending bill
{ was without father, but with a con-
4 siderable number OF wet nurses. 1t was
4 measure which had never been asked
for by the soldier. =
Mr.. Cannon, OF Illinois, favored the
bill on the ground that.it would plac,
on the pension rolls 100000 names ant
would increase the pension Of 5000
men now on the rolls. Mr.. McComas
OF Maryland, elected a round Of applaus
by his reference to Mr.. Morrill, as tn,
best friend the soldier had had for man!
: years. The bill was not all that he coul,
( have wished for, but it was the best thu
could be obtained. The Republican,
acted while the Democrats talked; th,
Republicans voted while the Democrat

DENVER, Coll, June 12.-The Rocky
Mountain Ntus, the leading Democratic
paper in the west, contains double
loaded editorial to-day which takes
strong grounds against the nomination
by the National Democracy of either
Cleveland or Hill, or any other New
York man, for President.
The Neus states that this desire is not
the outgrowth Of hostility to either Of
these gentlemen. but by the attitude OF
the party in going to New York for a
candidate ever since the war has section.
allied the party, the South andWest have
been compelled to submit to New York,
and with New York to Wall street.
Until these bonds ara broken the Dem
ocratic party eau never Claim to be what
it's founders made it.
"Since 1875" the Ne,rs says, "the
country has been suffering the evil effects
OF silver demonstration. 1t was partially
restored by Democrats in 1873, and ever
since the masses OF the party have ia-
yored it's complete restoration. The tariff
issue ia insignificant in Importance to
the financial issue. The South, West
and Northwest are in favor OF restoration
Of silver. New York alone dominates
and controls the whole party in this
great financial struggle. Democrats in
Congress are almost unit for free coin
age. In National conventions this can
dor vanishes in superstitious fear thai
only q New York candidate can be
elected. New York will never cast it
vote in convention for one bound ir
bonds Of gold 10 Wall street. Even be
fore Cleveland WAS inangurated hi
shocked the country with letter in op
position to silver. II Cleveland or Hi
were nominated neither could escape
from his Wall street environment. Til,
convictions Of the St. Louis convention
which nominated Cleveland, wer,
smothered. The Democratic party, by
conceding that it can win success only
through New York nominee, admit
fatal weakness and almost merits dc
feat"
The Neps concludes by an appeal t
the party to give the West and South .
chance.

DICKINSON, n. D., June 1l.-Intensl
excitement prevailed here last evening
when the news spread that Sheriff
Hayes, OF this county, had captured ont
Of the participants in the robbery OF the
Northern Pacific train at Salem last Sun.
day. The Sheriff and,two Of his men
arrived with the prisoner and lodged
him in Jail. In crossing Grand river,
about sixty miles south OF here, the
robbers horse gyms injured, compelling
him to stop on Ills flight, and when the
oilicers first discovered him yesterday
morning he made a desperate effort to
escape, but after race OF several miles
and, seeing that escape was impossible,
he surrendered.
He supposed bis time had come to die
and gave some valuable information
showing that the robbery Of the train
had been deliberately planned. He gave
his name as Chase Baily. There were
five men in the band, two Of whom came
from the west on the train which they
assisted. in robbing. The other three
were in readiness at the scene Of the
with horses and after the lob
was completed the three latter started
south aud separated when few miles
out, one going toward the Missouri
river, one west and the prisoner was
making for the Black Hills. The two,
who came from the west remained on
the train and from what the prisoner
says there Is no doubt that it was their
intention to rob the passengers. but ior
some reason this was abandoned. The
prisoner offered the sheriff 81 900 10 re-
lease him.
Sheriff Hayes left again last night to
attempt the capture Of the bandit that
started east. The prisoner claimed he
was under obligation TO assist others, but

was supplied with fifty. pound sack

PEELED to Give Up.
CHICAGO, June 1l.-Shortly before
noon the announcement was made on
the Board Of Trade, Robert Warren &
Co., one OF the Oldest houses in the trade,
had failed. The amount Of the liabili-
ties is unknown, although they are sup
posed to be quite heavy. The firm has
been "long" on both wheat and provi.
sions, aud the recent heavy depreciation
in values has had the effect OF driving
them to the wall. The announcement
caused break in the articles in which
the firm was interested, especially in
pork. which momentarily dropped to
Sll 10 per barrel, but soon rallied.
Mr.. Warren would give no particulars
OF his standing. "My money is tied up"
he said, "but guess it will be an even
deal" ..- /;
When asked for a rough estimate OF
the assets and liabilities, he could give
none, as he did not know yet where he
stood.
