An Injury to Commerce.

WAsHINeToN, March 25.-There was
quite spirited hearing before the SEN
ate committee on commerce today, in
which Senators Squire and Allen, of
Washington, undertook to show, why a
portion of the Puget sound collection
district should not be taken off and
added to the Astoria collection district
lying along the Columbia river. This
question was fought out at great length
in the senate more than week ago, and
the bill was reported back to the com
mittee on commerce. This time the
committee will probably decide not to
report the bill again, although the
ground is taken by many members of
the committee that Senator Dolph did
right in favoring the bill on account of
the letter from the secretary of the
treasury advocating it. In Difference to
the sentiment that hangs about the
state, it was thought best to leave the
Puget sound collection district intact,
containing the whole state of Washing
ton. Notwithstanding the manifest in
jury to the commerce of the Columbia
river.

Clash of interests.

Ell PAso, Tex, March 25.-C. P.
Huntington and number of Southern
Pacific officials arrived Monday from
New York. 1t is understood they are to
have conference with Jay Gould. The
object is not known, but it Is surmised
Huntington will protest against Gould
extending the Texas Pacific into Mexico.
1t appears the Southern Pacific has a
contract with Gould, that he will not
parallel the line to the Pacific coast.
This Gould interprets as applying only
to the United States, and the proposed
line through Northern Mexico to Quay
may will not nullify the contract.

MOrmonites.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, March 25.-Har-
ward, and nearly all Cambridge, are
amazed tonight over the report of a
speech by President Eliot-before the
Mormons in Salt Lake week ago. His
words are said to have been these: :'As
came over the plains I thought of that
early journey when the first colonists
marched across them under the guidance
of Christian church, and this reminded
me of another pilgrimage, though across
the water. refer to the pilgrim fathers.
They, too, suffered hardships for prin-

enthusiasm and sought freedom, also to
worship God. In planting colony it is

chusetts. The successful colonies of this
world are founded on religious enthusi-
asm. Here you founded a colony that
you might worship God according to the
dictates of your consciences. Here in this
valley, has arisen the question of religious
liberty. In Massachusetts, all churches
are equal before the law. There is no rea-
son why this religious liberty may not
be enjoyed in all other states and terri
tories, as well as in Massachusetts. Let
us devote ourselves to this liberty, civil,
and religious, for associations of every
sort, and for the individual also. If I
could do something to unite the elements
in this territory and bring them to seek
religious liberty as it is known in other
parts of the country, it would be to me a
great reward -
