THE WHEAT INVESTIGATION.
An Adjournment to be Taken Unit

An Adjournment to be Taken Until
ST. PAUL, June 25-The first question
decided by the wheat investigating com.
mittee was az to how much pay should
be allowed Attorney Irwin. It was
finally decided to allow him $500. This
question settled, Eric Olson and Mueller.
and their paper, The State, came in for
q roast. 4 resolution condemning an
article written by Olson, which recently
appeared in the newspaper The State,
was adopted, characterizing the article
as dirty and scurrilous.
In the afternoon the committee turned
to the statement submitted by the e.
perts who have been at work 1T Duluth
examining the books Of the elevators.
The figures show that 270, 095 bushels
have been shipped out without inspec-
ton, but the claim of the defense Is
that go, 900 bushels of that amount
consists of the bin burnt wheat shippe
out with the permission Of the grain
commissioner, and the remaining 10, O95
bushels can be accounted for.
Mr.. Severance wished to cross-exam-
Inc expert Willis, 30 the latter took the
stand. The witness said that in check
ing the books he had not searched for an
explanation for any apparent discrep-
ancy, but merely copied the books and
presented what was shown on them.
Item after item in these statements was
examined, and in many cases where no
inspection was reported an explanation
was found. In ono case some IA 600
bushels were reported having been ship
ped on the wrong vessel. These ex-
plantations cover nearly all the 10000
bushels of grain shipped without inspec-
ton, aside from that which was bin
burnt
Comparing Schedules.
ST. PAUL, June 26.-Session spent in
comparing the schedules, with Expert
Willet on the stand.
ST. PAUL, June 7.-For once the
wheat committee started on, its labors
without row between the attorneys.
The items made by the experts were
gone over and the discrepancies taken
up one by one. It was very routine
work and Mr.. Irwin soon wearied of it
and asked if the committee was to spend
the entire day in going over these sched-
ules, searching for few errors supposed
to be inexcusable to experts, but were
all right under the circumstances under
which the old clerks labored.
A dispute, lasting some time ensued,
then Arguments were choked off and
the investigation went on, showing how
cars Of coal were put down by the old
clerks as wheat shipped without inspec:
ton, and how bags of screenings shipped
from the Imperial mills were chalted
down As wheat surreptitously shipped
from the elevators.

UNSURNEYED LANDS.
Asking the Legislature to Urge Action
 by Congress.

Judge W. c. Hazledlne, General At torney for the Atlantic & Pacific rail- road presented memorial to the Legis- lature yesterday that should receive the earnest attention of both Houses. It is of equally as great importance to the Territory at large as it is to the railroad that all the lands included in the grant be surveyed; so that the proper taxation can be effected. We hope prompt action may be taken in the premises. The memorial and accompanying letter are as follows:
 To the LegisiatiUe Assembly of the Ter ritory 0f ArizOna:
 Your attention is respectfully called sage reading as follows: "The greater portion of the land within the Atlantic x Pacific grant escapes taxation on account of being unsurveyed. A me morial to Congress urging the impor- tance of having these lands surveyed may be beneficial"
 trust this Legislature may see the advisability of pursuing the course sug- gested by the Governor, and that a me- morial will be unanimously adopted in time for presentation to the present Congress asking for an appropriation wherewith to survey all the railroad grant lands situated in the Territory of Arizona.
 Ever since this grant was earned by the company it has used every effort, and tried in every legitimate way, to have these lands surveyed and patents issued therefor, even going to the extent of rendering to the Interior Department large sums of money with which to de- fray the expense of making such sur veys. These offers have been refused by the Government for the reason that the heads of the departments have construed section 3679 of the Revised Statutes of the United States as prohibiting them from making contracts for such survey prior to the appropriation by Congress of the funds wheiewith to make the

SAYS the New York Press: When Northern Brothers sent out their first samples of American tin plate a few weeks ago, the free trade organs sneered that these samples were made by i'm ported workmen dipping imported sheet iron into imported melted tin. The Harlem Republican Club, however, is sending around a specimen of tin plate made from American ores, dug by American miners and manufactured at Company's works, at Demmler, Penn sylvania, by American workmen who made their own dinner pails." Doubt less the silence of the Mugwump free trade organs as to this specimen will be as dense as that of the junior Senator from Pennsylvania. A dinner pail made of that tin plate is American from the ground to the grub.

WHILE all the Nation has been watch ing anxiously the serious illness of that great military hero, sherman, another great leader in the stirring days of war has passed away. Admiral Porter's death was so sudden that it came like a shock. David Dixon Porter was mem- OCT of family five generations of which have held high position in the naval service of America. Other members of the family have served in the army, and all were loyal and patriotic to the core. Receiving his first baptism of fire under his father, Commodore David Porter, the hero of the "Essex," the son when placed in command of the Mississippi
 River flotilla, in 1862, showed that he was equal to any emergency. At Fort Fisher in December and January. 1S64-5, he again displayed his masterly quail ties of generalship, and when joined by Terry quickly captured that stronghold of the Atlantic Coast. With his death passes away the last of the great trium- virate of naval commanders during the rebellion, Farragut, Dahlgren and Por- ter, who were to the navy what Grant, sherman and Sheridan were to the army. Almost four score, his life had ever been a useful and eventful one and even at his advanced age was still on duty for his Government and fell at his post, as such a man might wish to fall.

THERE is only one thing in the world worse for public man than talking too much and that is writing too much. Poor Cleveland's anxiety to appear in print and to put himself on record have left him naked to his enemies and To, he is undone. He has hopelessly alienated vast wing of the Democratic party and as the political weather cock now points, someone else will be the next Demo- cratic candidate for President. The point of his offending is this: The Re- form Club (Mugwump) of Boston held a meeting Wednesday and among the let ters of regret received was one from Cleveland, as follows:
 It surely cannot be necessary for me to make formal expression of my agreement with those who believe that the greatest perils would be initiated by the adoption of the scheme em- braced in adopting the measure now pending in Congress for the unlimited coinage of silver at our hints. If we have developed unexpected capacity for the assimilation of a largely -in- creased volume of currency, and even if we have demonstrated the usefulness of such an increase these conditions fall far short of insuring us against disaster If in the present situation we enter upon the dangerous and reckless experi- ment of free, unlimited and independent silver coinage.
 Any one who has ever watched Cleve- lands course, who remembers how the gold-bugs of Wall street and of the Bank

same, notwithstanding the fact that the railroad company offered and was will ing to advance the actual cash to pay for making the same.
 It is certainly unnecessary for me to assign reasons why such action as is asked on your part would both meet and merit the approval of every citizen of your Territory. If it should result in favorable action by Congress, large amount of land now practically reserved from sale would be placed on the mar ket, and the government sections ad- joining those granted to the railroad could be entered under the public land laws, good and valid title could be made, and . large area of land would become subject to taxation, thus reducing the amount of the tax levy and thereby directly benefting every taxpayer.
 Accompanying this communication is letter from Hon. J. A. Williamson, land commissioner of this company, who is at the head of the land depart ment and speaks authoritatively on it's behalf. Respectfully submitted,

 CHICAGO February 1, 1891. MR. ". c. HAzLEDINE, General Attorney At lantic X Pacific Railroad, Albuquerque, N. NJ. DEAR SRI notice that Acting Governor Murphy, in his message to the Legislature of Arizona, refers to the fact that the Territory Is not deriving the taxes that 1t should from the grant of the Atlantic & Pacific Railroad Con- pany for the reason that the lands are not sur veyed.
 I have done everything that I have found possible to do to induce the proper officers to estimate and urge upon Congress an appropria- tion of money to complete the survey Of the granted lands.
 think that if memorial or joint resolution were passed by the Legislature, asking that moneys be appropriated to complete the sur veys, that such action would have some effect in securing an appropriation. If you should concur with me in this view, think itwould be greatly to the advantage of all concerned to se- cure such action by the Legislature

IN the House Committee on Foreign Affairs yesterday McCreary, of Ken lucky, manifested the true Democratic instinct by opposing the Pacific Cable bill. He was willing to give the com pany a charter and moral support-any one would give that-but would do notll- ing tangible. The Democrats always talk great deal about foreign trade, but will do nothing to work it up. In fact, talking is their strong point and doing their weak one. It is reasonably probable that the Republicans will put through this project for our commercial deYelopment.
