sTANFoRD's LOAN BILL.
The Senate Finance Committee Handles
1t Roughly.

The Senate Finance Committee Handles
1t Roughly.
WASHINGTON, Feb. T.--Under instruc-
tions from the committee ON finance,
Senator Morrill,, chairman of that COM
mittee, today reported adversely Sena-
tor Stanford's bill Ito provide the gov
ernment with means sufficient to sup
ply the national want of sound circu-
lating medium" involving loans on
lands at 2 per cent. interest.
The report contends that land owners,
who will be the only class to be bene-
flied, are too prudent to. cover their
homesteads with mortgages. and even
young men starting in life,
when borrowing capital, do not in
tend to remain years in debt. But the
low rates of interest offered to land own
ers might inspire improvident habits
and extravagant speculation in the
mass of people not free from such temp
tations.
The report says the bill endorses the
principle put forth more than century
ago by the notorious John Law. Expe-
rience has shown that whenever such
reckless experiments, intended to secure
cheap money, have been tried, they
ended in commercial crisis, bank.
ruptcy and national disaster.
The report compares the measure un.
der discussion to the Argentine republic
and colonial schemes, both of which
say the committee, resulted in shame
and disaster.

ment appropriating $946, 900 to carry out
the agreement with the Crow Indians Of
Montana. Adopted. -
An amendment for carrying out a cer-
tain treaty agreement with the Sisseton
and Wahpeton and other Indians, was
agreed to.
Holman of Indiana offered an amend
ment providing that the Cherokee nation
may negotiate with the secretary of the
interior for the sale of the Cherokee out
let. Adopted.
The committee rose and reported the
bill to the house. The previous question
was ordered on the passage of the bill,
and the house adjourned.

AuSutuClOuS OOmPlCtGus
The legislative committee spent Sat-

After lunching at the Oakwood hotel,

Messrs. Gould, Hersey and Freeman
made biief addresses to the students.
They next visited the Protestant Or
phan Home, where Mrs. Ferguson, the
president OF the board of managers, and
Mrs. Morse, the matron, gave them
every opportunity to inspect the work
of this great charity. At the Catholic
Orphans Home, on Macy street, they
were met by Sister Josephine and Sister
Scholastica, the former sister enquiring
solicitously about Governor Markham's
health. After visiting the various de.
partments of this orphanage the COM
mittee took lunch with the California
club and left for the north on the 80
