BU TIC <iSsncfntfu fFes&
WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.--There Is n move
ment in the house to urge upon the
judiciary committee an investigation Of
the management OF railroads under the re-
ceiyers appointed by the federal courts. Re-
cent? Governor Tillman ofSouth Carolina,
memorialized Congress on the subject,
which run through his State, growing
out OF the rcfusaIs OF the receivers TO pay
State taxes, and tAesbsence OF legal ma
chinery through which hecould force them
10 do SO, as they were nominally the
agents OF the federal courts which APP
pointed them, and only through those
courts could he have brought action.
The Tlllman memorial was very bitter
against the judges Of the II. s. Courts and
the Supreme Court itself, accusing them
of partiality toward the railroad corpora
tions and against their cred
itors. This week the committee
has up the McGann resolution
for an investigation of the action of Judge
Jenkins in enjolning the employees of the
Northern Pacific from n strike. This re-
solution was the result OF shower of pro-
tests and petitions sent 10 the committee
on labor by the labor organizations and
there is no doubt that The more recent
order OF Judge Dundy against the men OF
the Union Pacific, coupled with his order
for saIarics OF $4,000 TO be paid to the five
receivers of the road, will probably be
called TO the attention OF Congress from
the same sources.
Mr.. NcCann SAYS that il Is evident that
grave abuses arc incident 20 the system of
"Friendly' receivers for railroads and
thinks thrt Congress should make some
definite utterance on the system.

Prospects Of Another Free
Silver Bill Being Presented.
BLAND's STRENGTH is GROWING.
The River and Harbor Bill WIN Not
BE Reported for Some Time-investi-
cation Of Railroads with Federal
Receivers.
Ru The Associated Press.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 10.-The strength
developed by Mr.. BANDS silver seignior-
age bill leads to the belief that anot her
movement will be made for unlimited
silver coinage as a sequel to the passage Of
the seigniorage bill.
Mr.. Bland has already introduced bill
"for the free coinage of standard silver
dollars"
Representative Williams of Illinois, one
OF Mr.. Blsnd's lieutenants, SAYS he has no
doubt the free silver question pure and
simple will .again be presented to this
Congress. Quite a number OF the members
who voted for the repeal of the purchase
clause of the Sherman law have told Mr..
Williams that they would like to have
free silver brought to an issue again in
order to reverse their former positions.
The fact is being noted that about 25 Re-
publican members are counted in favor of
the seigniorsge bill, some of them are
outspoken in favor Of the following up
the measure with free coinage bill.
They reconcile this with their vote to
REPEAL the purchase clause of The Sherman
act, by saying that the latter law has
boarded silver in the Treasury, while a
free silver bill would seek 10 put the
metal, or certificates based on it, in actual
circulation.
Mr.. Tracy OF lNew York, one Of the
anti-silver leaders, says that bill for un-
limited coinage OF silver could not pass
the House. He points out that quite a
number of anti-silyer Democrats like Mr..
because they think it viii dispose of the
,ilver question for the next few years at
least. He thinks this feeling that Congress
Is getting rid of the free silver question
is one of the main reasons for the strength
