The Nicaragua Canal Bill.

WASHINGTON CITY, June 2a.-[Special. l-Sena.
tor Allen is still anxious to have this congress
take up for consideration the Nicaragua canal
bill before the recess is taken. 1t is doubtful,
however, If this measure, which can not but De
considered very important in an international
sense, will succeed a. this session. Today SEN
ator Allen presented to the Senate q resolution
OF the Tacoma Chamber OF Commerce. urging
congress to provide or guarantee such neces-
sary means as will assist, protect and hasten the
completion and secure the national control of
the Nicaragua canal, as recommended by Presi-
dent Harrison in his recent message. In view
of the fact that both the national conventions
adopted planks favoriag the building o. this
canal, it is entirely probable that If the bill fails
at this session il viii possibly be reached and
passed at the short session.
Senator Allen also presented a petition of the
citizens of Louisville, Wash, protesting against
any legislation looking to the closing Of the
Worlds fair on Sunday.
Senator Allen today presented the petition of
the Pierce County Medical Society, urging con-
gress to pass a bill creating a public health de-
partment and providing for a cabinet officer to
preside over the ZANE.

Ex-Governor Miles C.. Moore Appoints
Himself Leader of the Faction.

WASHINGTON CITY, June %. - Especial -
Strange as it may seem. protests are on their
way from Washington against the passage OF
the bill providing an appropriation for the con-
struetion OF the Lake Washington ship canal.
The vice president has received kilograms from
Niles c. Moore, of Walla Walla, stating that pro-
tests have been mailed and will reach Washing
ton City within a day or two.
Today Senator Allen received a dispatch fro m
Washington stating that some of the opposition
to the canal has been withdrawn because of the
discovery that the legislature OF the state had
passed memorials favoring the appropriation
for this purpose. This fact, however, is not
news now in the capital city. This memorial
was presented in the Fifty-tirst congress, and
was also presented by Senator Squire TO the
committee on commerce and ordered TO be
printed on March S last.
Senator Squire, in speaking OF this mstter
today. did no: see how any objection could be
raised by any residents of Washington agains.
the passage OF the ship canal bill. for the reason
that II had been considered advisable by the
legislature of that state 10 embodv in il
memorial TO congress very strong reasons that
the appropriation for this purpose should be
made.

HOUSE AND SENATE.
Lock Horns Over the Amount
Of Appropriation Bills.
ADJOURNMENT SEEMS FAR OFF.
Senators Declare They Will Not Yield
Miles c. Moore, of Wal1a WalIa,
Bitterly Fighting Seattle.

WASHINGTON CITY, June 2o.-The action OF
the House in rejecting the first two conferences
reports presented at this session on regular an
nual appropriation bills has given rise to much
unfavorable comment among the senators. No
doubt it has seriously jeopardized the pros
poets of az early adjournment. OF congress.
Bad blood has been engendered on both sides,
and certain senators stated this afternoon that
congress would remain in session until election
day If the House persisted in maintaining its
position. McMillin declared that the House
would remain in session all summer before ac-
cepting amendments increasing appropriations
The senatorial programme is 10 sit it out in
quiet lgaity, but some members OF the House
threaten that in that case the House will re-
fuse 10 pass any resolution extending the ap-
preparations for support of the government be-
yond July 70 next. OF course no one believes
that either house will proceed to such an ex-
tremity, but the talk shows the strength Of the
feeling.

The legislative, executive and judicial ap-
preparation bill was taken up, the question be-
ing on the amendment as to the Utah commits
sion. TIL amendment was agreed TO, yeas Is,
nays "a. The House provision abolishing the
commission was struck out OF the bill and two
items appropriating 1850 for the salaries of
the five commissioners and the expenses of the
commission were inserted. Jones Of Arkansas
was the only Democratic senator who voted in
the affirmative. The Republican senators who
voted in the negative were Carey, FELTON, ana
Warren. Carey moved to reduce the salaries OF
the commissioners from 5000 to 5000, and
spoke in favor of the amendment and in favor
of applying to the survey of public lands the
$4,000 to be thus saved. The amendment was
also favored by FELTON, and Sherman, and was
agreed to. The salaries of the commissioners
were therefore fixed at 5000 each. Carey's
amendment that the commissioners be hereafter
appointed by residents OF Utah was agreed TO.
The amendment striking out the provisions

Industrial Christian Home of Utah for a school

Good Work of w. c. Il. T.. and mpla
The Handsome Proposed Fountain,

The drinking fountain that now stands on
second street near Columbia and offers refresh
ment to man and beast alike has an interesting
story connected with il.
In 1850 the fountain was erected by the Inde-
pendent Order OF Good Templars in front of the
Merchants National bank. almost at the foot of
cherry street on Front. 1t stood there until the
fire swept away the business part OF the town.
Then, badly wrecked, it was taken away and
stored In a wharf on the water front, and left
perchance TO oblivion, Notwithstanding the
good service ii had done.
Last summer, beginning with July 4, the
members of the Woman's Christina TEMPERANCE
Union, by permission from the city council.
opened a booth in Pioneer place, the profits OF
which were to be devoted to the erection OF a
fountain. Faithful women kept the place for
several months aud made several hunIred dol
lars. but their efforts to raise money were not
very successful.
Recently the W. c. 7. U. and the Good Tenn
piars got together and agreed TO hunt up the old
fountain and erect il at some suitable point, as
1t would serve as q reminder to the people that
work was being done to secure a better one.
After some difficulty the old fountain was
found. II had been appropriated by a stable
man, who was using 1t for thu ignoble purpose
OF a hitching post. He refused to give it I'D
for less than $3.50. The committee. consisting OF
Mrs. Frank Lee and George Cotterill, was some
what discouraged, but consulted q lawyer, who
said that the fountain was theirs and could be
appropriated by Its true owners wherever found.
Ihey watched their opportunity. and in its
possessors absence earted il away, spent about
SO in cleaning and painting ii, aud placed it
where il now stands.
The new fountain which the Women's Chris
tan Temperance Union proposes TO erect in
Pioneer place will cost about s., 00o, and was de-
signed by Warren T.. Skillings. The foundation
will be OF Il dark gray stone. and the walls and
troughs OF a pink stone found in this state.
which is susceptible OF a high polish. The
fountain will be octagon in shape, and will
have places where man, horse and dog may
drink of its flowing waters. The central basin
will be fourteen feet in diameter, while the
base from side to eide will be twenty-four feet.
This will be surmounted by a shaft three
feet six inches in diameter, which Will rise to
Il hight of fifteen feet. Its style will be
that of the Italian Renaissance. On the top
will be a carved lions head, ont OF which the
water will pour first into the troughs for horses
and then into the tanks for dogs. The four
drinking spouts for men will also be- surmounted
by carved lions heads. The whole structure

He Resists Arrest by the Gilman Mar
haI-Eeayfiy Fined.

Thomas Mullarkey, OF Gilman, is again in
trouble. During the fire at that town las. Sat-
urday night he got druuk and began cleaning
ont Davis saloon. Marshal MeQuade al
tempted to arrest him. but he showed a VIM
chester under McQuade's nose. The marshal
withdrew, "heeled" himself aud got assistance
and then started again to catch his man. He
found Mullarkey in bed and took him TO the
town jail, despite the protests of the young
mans mother. VINO was only quietei by threats
of arrest.
Mu.larkey was given until Monday to sober
M and then was taken before Justice Newton.
On hearing be was fined $3.50 for resisting an
officer. His attorney gave notice of appeal and
his bond was fixed az $1,000. The Justice re-
fused TO accept George Parks. the postmaster,
or DIR. Gibson as his bondsman, bu. finally
found an acceptable man in Mr.. Cruikshank.
A quarrel occurred the ZANE day between Mr..
Parks and Justice Newton, in which the former
used some strong language. Newton swore on,
a warrant before himself for Parks arrest, gave
him hearing and fined him So and costs.
