President Louck~ Favors the Mexlco-
Dakota Railroad.
TOPEKA, Feb. THE lower floor of
the representatives hall was filed by
400 people, assembled to hear the open
ing speeches of the National Farmers
Alliance and Industrial Union. About
40 delegates were present. Governor
Lewelling and John F. Willets deliv-
cred the addresses of welcome. Farmer"
Dean of New York and Mann Page Of
Richmond, Va, responded. President
Loucks' address began with q reference
to the present financial depression and
said that at no period in the nations his
tory have there been SO many idle peo-
pie as at the present time. Tariff legis-
latiOn, he said, was not the cause of
the panic. 1t was simply want of
money. A money famine. The speaker
was emphatic in his denunciation of
legislation against silver. He declared
against q per capita basis for money
and argued for the government owner
ship of railroads. He believed that the
government should not attempt to gain
the ownership of all the roads at once,
but shorld begin with gulf and inter-
state road, running from the Gulf of
Mexico to North Dakota. The speaker
said he was suspicious of the proposition
to foreclose the governments mortgage
on the Union Pacific, and believed that
it emanated in Wall street. He was
radical in his opposition to the issue of
bonds, and said that perpetual bonded
debt is the object sought.

WORKING ON THE TARIFF BILL.

The Senate Finance Committee Losing No
Time in Getting 1t in Shape.
WASHINGTON, Feb. THE Demo-
cratic members of the committee on
finance lost no time in proceeding to
work upon the tariff bill, after they de-
cided not to grant hearings to interested
parties. Senators Jones (Ark.), Mills
and Vest, comprising all the members
of the subcommittee on tariff, except
Senator Voorhees,, met and took up the
bill with the view Of putting it in shape
at the e. rliest practical moment for sub
mission, first to the Democratic men,
bers and then to the full committee.
The meeting was of an exceedingly pri-
vate character, and tho proceedings
were not given out. It is known, how
ever, that considerable progress was
made with the work, owing largely to
the fact that these gentlemen had all
given much attention to the bill and
had conferred among themselves to suf-
ficient extent to be familiar with one
another's views upon the questions at
issue. They have determined to make a
few concessions on important articles
like coal and sugar. A duty will be
placed on these articles, but whether it
will be specific or ad valorem in charac-
ter has not been determined. No de-
cision has been reached on the income

CHEYENNE, Wy, Feb. Ivan Are
dale & Esteeb, attorneys for the en-
ployes of the Union Pacific, presented q
petition Of over 100 typewriter pages to
Judges Riner and Hallett in Denver
The petition first attacks the right OF
Judge Dundy to issue schedule while
contract was in existence with the
Union Pacific employees. The petition
states that at various times prior to the
passage Of the road into the hands of the
receivers, the Union Pacific manage
ment attempted to cut the salaries of
the men without success, and that the
men now believe the receivers were ap-
pointed for the express purpose of cut
ting the salaries. The petition attacks
the right of Judge Dundy to issue an
order to restrain the men from meeting
to discuss whether they shall strike or
not. The order is declared to be an in
vasion of the constitutional rights of the
men, the enforcement of which would
make the work of years in perfecting
the organization worthless.
