An ALARMING CONDITION.

What Confronts the Country.
HIS WARNING NOT NEEDED.
The Sundry Civil Bill Occupies the
Senate Again.
Senator Wolcott Opposes the Appropria-
lion for the Typographical Survey
in Vigorous speech-More
Silver Legislation

WASHINGTON, Feb. Ex-senator Cor
man, in some remarks which he made in
the Senate today in opposition to an ap-
preparation for pubic buildings, spoke of
the serious and alarming condition which
confronted the country, and essed q
belief that only the borders ROUTE he i
been touched, and that extraord Larry
action would have to be aiken by the
treasury department or else Congress
would have to reaSSenble before next
July to meet the condition. his W2rning
did not prevent the Senate from agreeing
to all amendments offered making appro-
priations for increasing the limit of cost
OF public buildings. The only yea and
nay vote taken showed all the Republican
senators except Sherman in the affirma-
tive, and all the Democratic senators ex-
cept Vest in the negative.
The sundry civil appropriation bill oc-
cupied the Senate throughout the day.
The House bill to provide for the pub
LEGATION of the eleventh census passed.
The House bill to limit the jurisdiction
of district and circuit courts of the United
States was reported back adversely.
Mr.. Hansbrough presented a concur
rent resolution from the legislature of
North Dakota for constitutional amend
lnent to have United States senators
elected by the people.
During consideration of the sundry
civil bill among other things Mr.. VOL
c0t1move to reduce the amendment for
photographic surveys from $500, 900 to
SOD GOO and advocated the adoption of the
amendment, giving what he called some
peculiar history OF the geological
surveys" If anyone examined the
geological map of The United States, he
would fnd the Typographical surveys
distributed politically and not geologi-
icahy. The survey had already expended
over 81, 600, 600. and at the rate the work
was carried on it would take thirty eight
years to complete the Typographical alone
and as to the geological part of the work
no man could figure out its completion
within a century nor its cost within any
thing like a 500, 900. 900. After long
discussion Mr.. Wolcott amendment was
rejected.
Mr.. Quay rnovedan amendment, which
was agreed to, fixing the limit of cost of
the public building ct San Francisco at
s., 900, 900, and at Portland, Ore. at
81 600. Alter an exciting session the
senate adjourned.

Parsons all they could and not allow him
to build up a line as he did against the

The ''pinching' policy was inaugur-
ated forthwith but suddenly Mcleod of
the Reading, appeared upon the scene and
announced that he had purchased control
OF the New York & New England in the
interest of his company. Parsons and

WISCONSIN CENTRAL.

President Abbott Denies the Truth of
So-Called Report.
NEW YORK, Feb. 2O.-A letter written
by President Abbott, of the Wisconsin
Central railroad, addressed to President
Cakes, of the Northern Pacific railroad,
was made public today. 1t is a reply to
the report of the special committee made
public Saturday. It is in refutation OF
the statements about his company. Mr..
Abbott says the authorship of the So
called report is thinly disguised. It's tone
the committee who was formerly one of
the Northern Pacific board and failed in
1889 to keep his place. He doubtless at
tributes his defeat to the Wisconsin Cen
trail, and this belief explains his inability
to see anything good in the Wisconsin
Central in the past, present or future.

SILVER LEGISLATION.
Representative Livingston of Georgia Has
a New Measure.

Representative Livingston of Georgia Has
a New Measure.
WASHINGTON. Feb. O.-Representative
Livingston of Georgia is preparing and
will introduce bill on the lines of an
understanding reached yesterday at
conference between Senator Carlisle and
seventeen Democratic members OF the
House, representing various elements
Except the radical free coinage men) of the
party on the silver question. No under
standing was reached, for the men present
say it could not be called a t'defnite
agreement 1t was to suspend silver
purchases and to reserve sufficient silver
60 provide for the redemption of outstand
ing notes issued in payment of silver
representing profit or difference be-
tween purchase price and coin value
of silver heretofore bought. After this
is done silver purchases are to be re-
sumed unless there is new legislation,
meanwhile the profit amounts to about
S47. 900, 900, so that it will take sixteen
months to coin the bullion.
Out and out free coinage men announce
that they viii fight the proposition to the
death, Anti-silver men claim that by
this compromise they have caused enough
men to change their views to turn the
scale to favor the cloture. provided they
rules committee and then hold the votes
they obtained last time. Matters have
not yet assumed shape. The proposed
measure is to be sent to the banking COM
mittee.
The bill was shown to the Republicans
by Mr.. Tracy of New York, and they were
asked if they would support it. Nearly
ali the Republicans who voted with the
anti-silver men the last time replied that
they would not do so. It therefore seems
likely that the silver bullion purchase act
cannot gain the votes necessary to its
passage. as the free coinage Democrats
say they will refuse to vote for it and the
Republican detection more than offsets
the Democratic gain made as a result OF
the conference.
One proposition which found consider
able favor at the conference and in the
House among free coinage men, provided
for the coinage OF bullion now in the treas
ury and fhe re- enactment of the Bland law,
but Mr.. Williams of Massachusetts, and
other gold men refused absolutely to vote
for any measure providing for further sill

A Statement Regarding the

Populists Have Never Lost Sight Of the
Central Idea.
That Was the Preservation of the Populist

TOPEKA, Feb. Ex-Governor Lewelling
this afternoon gave the Associated Press
a statement which is editorial Cor use in
this week s issue OF Populist papers re-
garding the late unpleasantness. 1t says
the Republicans boast of having carried the
fight; the fact is the Populists have never
lost sight OF the central idea in the con-
test, the preservation of the Populist
house. 1t was to destroy this house that
the Republicans made the fight and failed
Had they succeeded it would have
thwarted all reform legislation. They
know laws passed by it are valid. That
to declare otherwise the supreme court
would have to reverse all respectable pre-
cedents at the partisan demand and in the
face of wave of public Indignation I'M
paralleled since the notorious Judge Ire
scilian was followed to the scaffold by an
outraged people who exulted at his just
but shocking execution. Corporate greed
has determined to prevent the enactment
of reform measures by the Populists.
The governor then goes on to enumer-
ate the acts OF the Republican house in
tended to extinguish the house of the
Populists, beginning with the attempted
arrest OF its chief clerk and to be followed
by the arrest of enough Populists and
members to break a quorum. This, he
adds, did not succeed, and though the
Republicans succeeded in compromise in
driving the Populists from the hall, their
organization is still intact. Even this
was only brought about through disloy-
atty of the state militia and county
sheriff. He declared the militia had been
recruited and doctored TO this end for two
years, and the unmasking of Republican
treason. perjury and lawlessness entirely
compensates the Populists for all indig-
mites suffered.

Cuba stating that there is great excite

concessions of customs with the accompa-

Spain is now seeking information on this
point before sending protest to Wash
