formal announcement OF its willingness TO
furnish at per cent interest, and without
commission. whatever the amount may be
required by the receivers to pay the inter-

This offer is based on the fact that the re-
ceivers have bsen obliged by order of
the court TO assume operating expenses,
and it is conditioned upon the procure
ment by the receivers of an order from the
court authorizing them to issue their GER
tficates, having three months to run, for

committee may provide to prevent a de-
fault upon the first mortgage bonds. The

LOOKING TO A SETTLEMENT.
Probability That the Rate Troubles

may De ADJUSTED.
CHICAGO, May 23-There is now
strong probability that the troubles of the
Western Passenger Association over emi-
grant traffic will be settled within ths next
few days. President Reinhart of the
Atchison sent a telegram to President
Clark of the Union Pacific to-day, remind
ing hin that they would enter a meeting
with reference to a settlement of the differ
ences between the lines. The proposed
agreement, which was accepted by both
lines. distinctly provided that eastbound
California business was to be included as
well as the westbOund. This was appa.
rently MI Clark's understanding OF the
matter, for he sent back to Chicago Gen.
eral Passenger Agent Lomax of the Union
Pacific with instructions to have the mat
ter fixed up.
MIR. Lomax, who originally raised the
question of exempting the eastbound
business from the agreement, arrived In
Chicago to-day and will tomorrow have a
conference with the Western Passenger
Association lines in relation to the emil
grant troubles. The reason why the thing
cannot be settled with the Union Pacific in
a complainant mood. is that it is the only
road which has been standing in the way
of settlement for the last three months.
The president of the Western Freight
Association lines met to-day and formu-
lated plan by which rates can be main
tanned, and it was referred to a committee
OF eleven vice-presidents of the lines rep
resented to work out its details and report
it tomorrow for revision and adoption.

had made this proposition to Buttz. had
died on the 18th OF last April and that he
was the only witness to the conversation
between ButtZ and Harris.
Major Buttz's testimony was devoted
largely to an explanation of his absence
from the city yesterday. He denied again
that he made direct proposition to bribe
Senator Kyle, and stated that his only pur-
pose in approa ching him was to learn how
he would vote.
Senator Gray said to-day that he knew
OF no other witnesses TO call in this branch
OF the inquiry and that the report on the
alleged effort to bribe Senators Hunton
ana KYLE would be prepared as soon as
