HOLMAN WAS AT THE THROTTLE,

And Those Who Wanted Increased Appro-
priations Were Ruthlossly Run Down.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-In the House to-
day the sundry civil bill was granted the
right of way. and while few distractions
were placed on the track, none Of them
proved disastrous. and the bill made fair
progress. The Item of appropriation for
the survey of public lands was the chief
object of attack, but Mr.. Holman kept his
men in line. and amendments looking to an
increase of the appropriation for this pur-
pose from 100000 to SOC, 900. and sSGg. 900
were cleared by the appropriations commit
tees cowcatcher. Mr.. Dockery made q
speech criticising the recent report of the
Secretary of the Treasury In regard to the
financial situation.
Mr.. McMillin, from the committee on
rules, reported back the Dockery resolu-
tion for the appointment by the Speaker of
the Fifty second Con gress of commission
of five Representatives of the Fifty-third
Congress TO inquire into the status of laws
establishing executive departments and bu-
reaus In Washington city. This was ac-
rompanied by a resolution referring the
Dockery proposition TO the committee on
appropriations, with authority to that CON-
mittee to incorporate il in one of the ap-
preparation bills 1t has already been in
cOrporated in the legislative bill, with a
modification, making the composition of
the commission three Senators and five
Represen tatives. and this action was taken
to preclude il from being struck out on O
point of order. The resolution was adopted.

SIX NEW SILVER SENATOR'S.
Possible Result of Admitting Arizona, New
Mexico and Utah.

Possible Result of Admitting Arizona, New
Mexico and Utah.
Special 20 the IndiaDs poIs Journal
WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-The admission of
Arizona. New Mexico and Utah is no longer
Q question of party politics in the Senate.
but is O question of whether it is safe to
risk SIX new silver Senators. The present
Senate is quite evenly divided on financial
questions, and this situation Is likely to
continue unless the three Territories are
admitted as States. With their aoauisi-
ton, however. the free-silver element of
the Senate would receive an addition to it's
ranks which would probably be decisive in
favor of free silver. Utah is a large
eiiver-producing State and there could be
no doubt as to the financial views of the
Senators representing Utah. New Mexico
and Arizona are also producing large guam
titles of silver. and 1t Is believed that they
would send silver men TO Congress. This
view of the situation has become so marked
that Senators Teller. Wolcott. Stewart and
others, who are recognized as free-silver
men, are foremost in urging the admission
of the new States, while the anti-silver Sem
stors are foremost in opposing the new
States. IL is probable that the fear of free
silver may defeat the efforts of the Terri
tories to secure admission not only In the
present Congress, but In the next.

Ste. Marie canal, which has so long been
free to the people of both counties. My
government. while ready to consider In a

WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-There were not

S~skable circumstance of che States
rights Democrat, Mills. Of Texas, having
his argument against the constitutionality
of the bill sustained by stalwart Republic

thought that Republican statesmen were
mistaken in regard to the States rights
sentiment of the people of the United
states. The people of the United States
loved their local self-government. They
chung to it with an instinct which told
them that their liberties depended upon Its
preservation. He Mr.. Mills would not

of every State In the Union to q govern

Mr.. HIscock opposed the bill. The great
volume OF wheat, corn and cotton would
not be diminished or increased by such
legislation, and that proposition was TO
take possession of the markets of New
