FORCE Bill SCARE
Why the Democrats Did Not Defeat the
Subsidy Measure.

Spfcidi Tsiegrdm 10 Me Register
WAsmNGToN, ID. c., March There
has been genuine scare over the Force
bill during these dying moments OF the
Fifty-first Congress. The whole thing
grew ont Of the disposition OF some OF
the Southern Senators TO prevent the
shipping bill from becoming law. The
revival of Force Till talk occurring
close upon the death of Senator Hearst,
gave rise To the suspicion thai Mr..
Hoar might make another attempt to
get his bill through the Senate, the
open opposition being by that death
reduced to minority, but IL
was not the death Of the Cali
fornia Senator which provoked
the danger of Il resurrection OF this
moribund measure. i'rOm some quarter
certain friends OF the shipping bill got
an impression that If the force bill
tailed the Democrats would not make Il
factions fight upon the shipping bill
but would let it co me TO 4 fair vote at
all stages of its progress, opposing II
on principle OH the various votes, but
not tilibustering against 1t. When the
bill went through the House in amended
form an opportunity was given TO de-
feat it on its coming back 10 the Sen
ate. Several Democratic Senators said
openly that they would see that
no action was taken on the amend
ments, and that with even 50 much
as the change Of punctuation mark TO
give them chance mt it, they would
talk the bill to death This made the

promptly accused the Democrats OF bad
faith and threatened To join with MIR.
Hoar's forces and put the Federal Elec-
tlons bill through the Senate A. it
passed the House il the threats
against the shipping bill were carried
ont. They were in earnest and pre-
pared To do in few hours what their
party had failed - do after many
months OF labor. Just how they
were TO do it is matter concerning
which some difference Of opinion exists,
but the threat coming Immediately after
the death OF Mr.. Hearst and coming
from sources supposed to be opposed to
the Force bill. was sufficient TO make
the Democrats cautious and TO secure
the action ON the shipping bill which
followed to-day All day yesterday,
and until the matte was settled to-day,
the Democratic ieaderS were anxious
and there was deal Of hard work done
by them on Sunday. To this fright
only is due the action on the subsidy
bill to-day. Had it not been for the
fear that the Force bill would be passed
there are several Senators who would
have consumed enough time when the
measure came up for action ON the
House am, ndmentS to have defeated II.

WASHINGTON, March -Four mo

cases intended to test the validity OF The

ABOUT THE CODE.

Special IfteQFdW 10 me hfQ'WfF.
CHARLESTON, w. Va, March 2.-In
order TO know something about the con-
dition of affairs concerning the code,
and to learnif either of the resolutions
before the Legislature were necessary
or not, a REGISTER scribe saw Secretary
of State Ohley, and from him learned
that there are about twenty-five copies
OF the code now in his office, and there
are six or eight acquisitions on file now
from various courts of the State for
codes. In the past few months from
fifty to hundred letters from attor-
neys wishing to purchase codes have
been thrown aside, because the State has
none to sell. In use. code lasts usually
about three years. The present edition
was published in 1887. In short time
all that edition will be worn out. About
/, 500 copies are required TO supply the
officials throughout the State. Warth'S
code gives very good satisfaction gen
orally. The plan of appointing COM

good one, but it is quite expensive and
