Co. Against the City.

Lewiston, Dec. 5. -(SpeciaD. - The
county commissioners have reached de
cision in the case of the Union Water
Power Company against the city of Au-
burn. The Water Power Company claim
that the city by putting a larger water
main into Lake Auburn, decreases the
amount of water in said company's pond
md the company asks the commissioners to
assess damages. The case comes under

same as land damages in road cases, and
is, of course, subject to appeal, The com
missioners say that they have decided on
figures but are not willing to give out the
amount today. The fact that they have
arrived at figures settles the question that
the report will be against the city.

SD CONGRESS.
Senate Wants Sec. CarIisIe's
Authority for Bond Issue.
Vest Outlines His Plan for Closure
Rule for the Senate.
Chandler AIludes to Vests Conversion Through
Means Of Recent Elections.

Washington, Dec 5.-The resolution
offered by PETER, instructing the judi
ciary committee to inquire and report
whether the act of the secretary of tho
treasury, in issuing and selling United
States bonds, is authorized by any act OF
Congress now in force, was agreed to,
without objection.
The resolution offered by PETER, calling
on the President for a statement of the
facts and circumstances which made the
presence and use Of United States troops
necessary in Chicago, in July, 1894, after
some discussion, was referred to the judi
ciary committee: yeas, i3; nays, 4.
The closure resolution offered by Vest,
yesterday, was laid before the Senate,
modified by Vest to make it provide that
the committee shall report not later than
Dec, Is, Il plan by proper limitations and
restrictions, or terminating debate and
securing final action at ii fixed time, on
any pending bill or resolution. Vest ad-
dressed the Senate in advocacy of the reso-
lutlon. He said:
''Without Il rule that can limit debate,
without the possibility of bringing n
measure to a finally until absolute physical
and mental exhaustion intervenes, sena-
tors in charge of the measure are compel
led to remain silent and are afraid to de
fend measure because such defence would
excite attack and give occasion for debate.
The present rules stifie the freedom of
debate. They coerce senators in charge
IF bills into silence. They facilitate par
limentary blackmailing.
''It is said that these rules are now TO
be changed to pass the 'popgun' bills. ]
shall vote for these bills; but / don t be
lieve they could pass this body if Il vote
was to be taken the next hour, or the next
day, or the next week. So believing /
cannot be influenced in my action by a de
sire to pass these bills. | have no other
object than to relieve the Senate from the
obloquy into which it has been brought by
the rules as they now exist.
"Until we teach the people that we arc
not body of obstructionists, but are will
ing to take our responsibilities and per
form the functions imposed upon u.s. the
senate will fail to meet its high mission
or expectations of those who brought it
into existence. | will content myself with
simply asking the yeas and nays on the
adoption of the resolution.
When Vest had finished the morning
hour had run out and under the rule the
resolution would have gone to the calen
dar, but Harris proposed that it retain it,
place on the table, subject to the call Of
the author The suggestion was accepted
W Vest, but was objected to by Aldrich
and the resolution went to the calendar
Chandler made Nost's speech and rcsolu-
ton the text of some satirical remarks a
10 the conversion wrought by means OF
the recent elections.
Vest gave notice that he would, tomor
row, move to take the resolution from the
alendar and have vote of the Senate up
