UTAH COMMISSION MUST GO
That is the Dictum of Repre-
sentative Holman.
A VERY CUMBERSOME BODY.
Interesting story in Connection with
the Amnesty Proclamation.
1t Was Strongly Urged More Than a Year
Ago as Political Move-As a
Vote Getter Now 1t
VIII FAN.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Especial. 1.-The
q al commission must go. That is the
q ctum of Representative Holman the
chairman of the House appropriations
committee. 1t viii be remem bered that
year Mr.. Holman struck out the appro-
priation for the commission and substi-
tuted therefore a board consisting of the
governor, chief justice and the secretary
of the territory. to discharge the functions
that had formerly belonged to the COM
mission. When the bill went to the Sem
ate this clause was stricken out and the
appropriations for the commission re-
inserted, after reducing their pay one
half.
Judge Holman regards the commission
as an entirely useless, expensive and
cumbersome body and when the sundry
civil appropriation bill is prepared at this
session the judge viii again eliminate the
paragraph referring to the commission
and substitute therefor his amendment of
a year ago. He told me today he would
do this and added that there was no ques-
ton that the House would pass the bill in
that form.
WhaJ the senate Will 90, ana whether
it will repeal its tactics OF last session or
not, Mr.. Holman coald not say. He be-
heyes, however, that the changed condi-
tions of the past twelve months in Utah
wiz make Is easier for his amendment
abolishing the commission to be adopted
by the Senate. at all events he is going to
make steady fight to get rid OF the COM
mission this time forever and If he does
not succeed it viii not be his fault

He ABHORS TIGHTS.
Dean Hart of Denver and the Theatres
Again at War.
Not Being Citizen, the Dean Induces a
Friend to Swear Out Warrant for
Theatrical Managers.

DENVER, Colo. Jan. Especial. i
Very Reverend Dean Hart, whose loyalty
to Queen Victoria is only surpassed by his
adherence of shapely neither limbs of fe-
males dressed in tights, is again seeking
ridiculous notoriety.
Today he attempted 20 swear out war
rant for the arrest of the managers of
Sackett's Wonderland and the ALEXANDRIA
theatres, where pretty girls show off their
charms to great advantage on Sunday
nights, to large audiences, but the justice
refused to issue the warrants until the
Dean became a citizen. This will prob
ably never occur.
The Dean did not care to wait that Ion g
so he had man named Aldrich of the
Humane society perform the act of swear
ing for him. Theatrical managers
threaten to have Aldrich arrested for per-
jury as he admitted he never was in the
theatres.
So church members, who would fain
compel others to act as they command
them, and free thinking theatrical people
are again at war.

Snow Drifts Five Feet Deep and Traffic
on Broadway stopped
NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-Not since the ter
rible snow storm of five years ago, has
New York experienced anything SO nearly
like blizzard in the Banana belt of Da
kota as that which has been blowing here
since last night. Traffic on Broadway is
almost suspended, while on some of the
less prominent streets the blockade is
complete. The snow drifts in places are
four to five feet deep. Snow fell ftfully
all afternoon, with gusts of wind. Early
in the evening it began to fall fast and
furious, and driven by gale it soon be-
came as fine as powder, increasing in vol
ume and continued throughout the night
with the results given above.
An army of men are at work today max
ing passable the streets, and the snow is
rapidly forming into Jumps along the
curling before being carted away. There
is but little disturbance in the schedules
of the railroads mp to tonight. The
weather is clear and cold with little wind
blowing. The storm and wind did much
damage in ard around Jamaica bay. Sew
eral yachts were torn from their anchorage
and blown on the meadows, where a
number of them were completely wrecked.

Claims in the City.
TACOMA. Jan. 6.-By decision of the
general land office John G. Mcbride gets
possession of and title to 120 acres of land
in the city OF Tacoma which is valued at
half a million dollars. In 1889 twenty
citizens of Tacoma fled on the land
in mineral claims of twenty acres each.
Mcbride bought these claims at from 500
to $500 each, put 81 900 into improve
ments and then applied for patents. This
was refused and after twenty-five days
legal fight in the local land Office the case
was decided against him in February,
1892. He appealed to the general land
Office and the decision isjust made public
During the fight for possession just
after Mcbride bought out the claims the
county commissioners sunk shaft on
school section to search for gold. They
erected a high board fence around the
shaft and stationed guards at the gates
carrying Winchesters. They, and later
mining experts also found gold that aver
aged 10 cents to the cubic yard, these
finds being the basis for the land Office
decision that the mineral claims are bona
fide and valid. Mcbride claims the land
is worth So ZOO, COO for mineral purposes.

NEpRAskA,s DEADLOCK BROKEN.

The Compromise, However, Leaves the
Situation Still Complicated One.
LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. 6.-The deadlock
in the senate was broken this morning by
the election of Carroll, Republican, as
president, four of the five Democrats vot-
ing for him. The anti-monopoly sena-
tors voted with the combine on promise
that they would be given control of the
railroad and other leading committees.
They stipulated, however, that in case
the combine failed to carry out the prom
when it came to the election OF United
States senator, so the situation remains
almost as complicated as before.

WORK OF CONGRESS-.
The Quarantine Bill Occupies the
Time Of the Senate.
Attendance in the House So Small That
Nothing b 1T Private Business
Was Attempted.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Elm the senate
Mr.. HIPS resolution of yesterday as to
the immigration bill was passed. The
Quarantine bill was then taken up and
discussed, till on motion OF Mr.. Sherman
the senate went into executive session.
When the doors re-opened, consideration
of the quarantine bill was resumed.
Mr.. Chandler, Republican, of New
Hampshire, spoke about three hours, de-
voting most of his argument to the bill to
suspend immigration. which measure he
favored.
Arguments against the quarantine bill
were made by Mr.. Mcpherson, Demo-
crat, OF New Jersey; and Mr.. Platt, Re
publican, of Connecticut; Mr.. Mills,
Democrat, of Texas, and Mr.. Dolph, Re-
publican, of Oregon. Many amendments
were offered, some of which were agreed
to-; others going over until tomorrow,
when the bill comes up as a special order.
In the course of his speech MIR. Chan
der spoke of the inconsistency of admit
ting ten-dollar immigrants and excluding
self-supporting industrious men under
the labor contract law. Referring to the
North German Lloyd Steamship COM
pany, Mr.. Chandler said it was the favor
lie route OF the secretary OF the treasury,
assistant treasurer, commissioner OF I'M
migration anc other treasury officials
when they go abroad, and it always had
been very kind to them. 1t had always,
he said, given them the very best accom-
modations, and if they got short of money
while on the other side and Congress had
been negligent about providing means for
their support while over there it loaned
them money.
He invoked the assistance OF the North
German Lloyds to carry out the provision
not to bring 2,20O passengers on one
steamship, and he invoked in all sincerity
the newspaper press of TIE country to aid
him in his great work to benefit human
ity.
After further argument the bill was
modified in some particulars and ordered
printed, and then the Senate adjourned.

All the Archbishops Have Become Will
ing TO support Him.
NEW YORK, Jan. 6.-"There is no breach
today between Monsiegnor Satolh, able
gate to this country and the archbishops,"
says the Philadelphia Despatch to the
Times; rbut there was four weeks
ago and it was OF so SER
ious character that an open
clash Of authority was threatened. The
difference was due to misunderstanding
as to the purpose and scope of the able
gates mission, and the day he landed in
New York the American arch bishops
were disposed to resent his coming.
tsHe, however, was given a courteous
greeting because he came from Rome, and
during all the discussion his presence
since has caused the archbishop to grow
more willing every day to support and
uphold him in the difficult position he
occu pies. The above is an interview
with Archbishop Ryan who entertained
Satolli at Philadelphia.

Securing a Jury.

DENVER, Colo, Jan. 6.-TSpecial. l.
Several days ago KEITH detective agency
and Sam Howe's city detective depart
ment unearthed great quantity of goods
concealed in house in suburb OF Den
yer. The people arrested on charge of
shoplifting. who were found in the
house, gave their names as Jacob Wat
son, Grace Watson, Title Williams and
Otto Reinach. Among the papers found
in the house were many express receipts
showing that quantities of goods had
been sent to Chicago to the address OF
Emma Weir. The receipts altogether
foot up in value to nearly 81, 900.
Letters were found without signature,
but they are known to be from Mrs. Weir
and in them the name of Andy Rohan.
one of Chicago's detectives, is mentioned
in this way: candy Rohan wants me to
make plea, and says that if 1 do can
get off with one year in Joliet. -
The chief of detectives here has wired
Chicago to find out what Rohan has to do
with the case and also to find, if possible,
what the attorneys, Donohoe and David
of the Metropolitan block, Chicago, have
to do with the shoplifting. Letters from
this firm of lawyers were found today
among the papers OF the thieves and it
would be interesting to the authorities
here to know just how much the attor-
neys know of the people that are locked
up here. No reply has yet came from the
Chicago detectives and it is awaited with
no little interest
The whole amount OF goods recovered
will not fall far short of $40, 900 and it is
plain that the leaders of a gang working
from Chicago to Spokane have been To-
Gated in Denver. Emma Weir alias Emma
Dobell is thought to have lived at 2. 636
State street. Chicago, but this is not def
nitely known.

ANARCHIST UPRISING.
Paris Is Much Alarmed Over Incendiary
Placards Posted

PARIS, Jan. 6.-Police are busy de-
stroying 1ncendiary placards posted by
anarchists. The placards call on the peo-
pie to rise at once, seize arms, destroy
their corrupt oppressors and sieze the
reins of government. The feeling OF alarm
was apparent throughout the city last
evening and is likely to increase today in
consequence of developments to come.
General Saussier, military governor, has
today taken every possible precaution.
The city would be safe were it not for the
general conviction that the government is
playing fast and loose in the Panama
matter. The laxity of the governments
conduct in the prosecution is the subject
of universal comment.

Tracy in awarding the contracts. 1t was
the intention of the secretary to award the
contracts today, but in view of the desire

ders, to show the necessity for construct

action was postponed. The impression
prevails that one of the vessels will be
