Islands, grants to the Government of the
United States the right to enter the har
Dor OF Pearl River, in the island OF Oaln,
aud to establish and maintain there
coaling station for the use OF the vessels
of the United States, and to that end the

Washington. July 14-By a meeting
which lasted all day the house COM
mittee on Pacific railways was able
toaAs tshnish the problem which has
been discussed throughout the
session and to reach prac-
teal agreement on a plan for
the settlement OF the debts of the Cen
trail and Union Pacific. The bill which
will be reported to the house will be
the main features, one introduced by
Chairman Reilly with some important
amendments of the second draft OF It.
The time for settlement OF the debt
to the government is fixed at fifty years
semi-annual payments in liquidation
OF 1t to be made. Interest Is to be at
the rate of per cent per annum. The
principal amendments agreed to today

ments. also In celebrating the provis-
Ions for u purchasing committee in
case the property should change hands.
the committee not deeming 1t best to
anticipate such a contingency. Ac-
cording to the plan the first mortgages
amounting to s65,00000O will be paid
as they mature clearing the property
of debts on which 1t is paying per
cent. The sinking fund now amount
ing to slS,O00000 will be devoted to
paying the first mortgage. The gov
ernment's lien. which will become the
first lien under the plan Will draw in
tcrest at 3 per cent, the principal be-
ing paid in graduated semi-annual
payments throughout u period of fifty
years. Propositions were made during
the discussion to have the period re-
duced to forty years. but 1t was con-
cluded that in the present condition OF
the roads they could not be expected
to meet such requirements. The period
of fifty years IL a reduction TO ONE
half of the time originally proposed In
the bill. One member of the commits
tee made stand for government own
ership, taking the position held by the
California members OF congress, Ma
gulre and Geary. His views did not
gain the support which they might
have won If 1t had seemed clear that
the railroads would become paying
property in the hands of the govern
ment. Even had that been the pros
pect most OF the committee men ex-
pressed themselves as opposed TO gov
eminent ownership on general piin-
ciples. Under the bill, however. the
government win foreclose II the COR
porations fail TO meet their pay
ments. The amended bill will be print
ed and submitted TO the committee
early In the week when formal vote
will be taken. The senate committee.
of which Senator Brice is chairman,
has held no meetings lately. II Is UNI
derstood to have been waiting for the
