GERMANY CANNOT BE PROUI

Protests Against the Pressure Exer-
 eIsed Upon the ReiehstaR by
 Threats of War-Comments on the
 Possible Election or the Russian
 Treaty.
 BERLIN, Feb. S.-In commenting on the possible consequences of the rejection of the Russian treaty the Germsnis says:
 The present position is not one of which Germany can be proud. If the nation be obliged to adopt treaties for fear of a neighbours anger, what becomes of our boast that Germans fear God, but nobody else in the worldi We protest against the pressure exercised upon the reichttsg by the thrests of WAT.
 The Munich Allegemeine Zsituug, irrs- conciiable Blsmsrckisp, says: No more mistaken means could have been found than to plscs the reichstag un- der the pressure of Russian threats. All parties, even the friends of the treaty, | ought to join in 6 protect against its course. What purpose does the triple al Hence serve if the rejection of ths treaty | will expose Europe to the chance and fate l of battle.
 The Hamburger Nachrichten, Prince Bismsrck's organ, says: If We ever men, 1 tioned the czsr's wishes ss arguments fol the adoption of any measure We wee taunted with cringing before Russia. Ia the present case an attempt has been msdt | to intimidste the rsiohstsg.
 The Freisinnige Zsitung, edited by Eu gene Richter, the radical leader, ssys that Emperor Will am spoke thus to Herr vor | Leyeztow at Chancellor von Caprivps din ner party: "I am far from desiring tC inluencs any body's conviction, but jus consider how the czsr would look upon tn, rejection of the treaty.

 By Judge Hsllett-The amount due from the Gulf company and It's constituent com psuies for interest on bonds scoruing from July 1, 1893, to October IS, 1893, is charge of a general nature against the Union Pacific under the contract of April l, 1890, to which no preference can be given. The receiver of the Gulf company cannot now call on the receivers of the Union Pacific company or any part thereof except ss stated in the next paragraph.
 9. If any part of the earnings of the Gulf company from July l, 1893, to Octo- Der 13, 1893, came to the hands of the re- ceivers of the Union Pacific after their ap- pointment, they must pay such money 10 the receiver of the Cult company.
 8. The receivers of the Union Pacific must pay to the receiver of the Gulf con- papy, under contract of April 1, 1890, the amount accruing for interest oH the Gulf company from October IS, 1893, during the period for which the receivers of the Union Pacific held possession of the Gulf company's line. Interest acoruing on the bonds of the Gulf company and It's conati- tuent companies after the property of that company passed to its receiver is a charge of general nature against the Union Ps- cifc.
 4. The contract of April l, 1890, and the pfa wade f, of in full force except as stated in the next paragraph.
 5. All agreements and stipulations In any of the said instruments relating to Q division of revenues in respect to business tntercbanged between companies are sus- pended. The court will hereafter deter mine what shall be paid by either company to the other in respect to such mat ters.

 By Judge Rtnser-In the matter of the petition filed by the receivers in relation to the proposed schedules affecting employ ment of men engaged in the service of the various railway and telegraph lines com posing the Union Pacific system. It sp- pears that prior to the appointment of the receivers certain rules and regulations, the result of regulations bstwesn managers and employees were recognized and acted upon by the employees and man sgers. If after such negotiations the re- ceivers and their employees are unable to ssree as to any proposed rule regulating wage schedules it is proposed that the mat ter of difference be referred 10 the court for final determination. In our judgment after the full discussion of those matters between The receivers and employees. meet ing in a spirit of fairness, very little will be left to the determination of the court.
 General Counsel Thureton gave notice of an appeal in the first case and ststed he would file petition in the matter.

MAY FRAME A NEW BILL. mittes to the Income Tax-A Tariff Brought to Put Coal Back on the Duriable List-Wool Causes Uneasi- ness.
 WASHINGTON. Feb s-At 10 o'clock this morning Messrs. Jones of Arkansas, Mills and Vest, the subcommittee in charge of the tariff bill in the senate, resumed their labors and with the exception of MT. Jones being called away by another committee meeting. Experts of the treasury depart ment have been assigned to assist the com mittee, and all speed possible consistent with thorough work will be made by the committee.
 The cardinal principle of this sub con- mittes is bill for revenue only, and one of the senators said this morning that when the bill was reported 1t would be found to be in accordance with the Chi cago platform and would yield sufficient revsnue to meet the needs of the govern msnt.
 There is said to be some opposition in the subcommittee to the income tax, and enormous pressure is being brought to bear upon the subcommittee to provide for revenue in some other way.
 Mir. Jones of Arkansas, is an advocate of the income tax, and is still firm in the belief that it is best. He will, 1t is under stood, yield to the judgment of his col leagues If he Is convinced tho bill will be endangered by its retention. It is not un- likely then that when they present their draft of tho bill to their democratic col leagues, this section, which was the cause of much contention in the house, may be found missing. In the house the question was, . duty on sugar or an income tax.
 The two propositions were debated sugar was made free, and incomes of over $4 900 were taxed 3 per cent. The sub committee about concluded that 1t would be better to have sugar contribute a portion toward the revenue than to levy tax on incomes. This some of the committee consider more in the line of revenue tariff, which they are endeavering to frame. The tariff on sugar will not be great. but will be such as will yield @ good sum towards the reve- nues.
 A great pressure is being brought to bear upon the committee to put coal back to the dutisble list. It is possible duty of from 30 to 40 per cent. may be put on coal when the committee reports. Wool is causing the sub committee great deal of uneasl ness and just what to do with 1t is @ quss- ton that has not been determined.

IN THE SENATE.

The resolution heretofore offered by MT. Stewart, rep, of Nevada, declaring 1t to be the sense of the senate that the secretary of the treasury has no authority to issue
 bonds except under the resumption act,
 and that the money derived from the gale
 of bonds issued under that act cannot be
 applied to any other purpose than as
 specified in the resumption act, was laid
 before the senate. Mr. Stewart n odifed
 the resolution by adding to 1t the following
 clause:
 "And in the opinion of the senate there
 is no present necessity for the eale of
 bonds for the purpose specified in the re-
 sumption act"
 MT. Butler, dem, of South Carolina,
 moved to refer the resolution to the com mittee on judiciary. MT. Sherman, rep, |, of Ohio. favored such reference. Mr. Quay, rep of Pennsylvania, said that the reference proposed would be sim ly giving the resolution a decent burial. MT. Morrill,. rep, of Vermont, opposed all the propositions. He understood that gold was being drawn out of the treasury by the presentation of United States notes, and one of tho propositions would forbid the secretary using United States notes. Yet there was Q positive statute that United States notes cannot be cancelled and must be reissued.
 In the course of the discussion on Mr. Stewards resolutions, Ar. Teller, rep, of Colorado declared that 1t was morally cer- tain that no more 5 per cent. bonds, on 6 8 per cent. basic, could be sold. The morning hour passed before any 30. ton was taken on the resolution. It still remains on the table. The senate then proceeded to the con- siderstion of house bill (psssed the house | on October F, 1693) to require railroad | companies operating railroads in the terri | tories over . right of way granted by the | government, to- establish stations and depots at all town sites on the lines of ths 1 roads established by the interior depart ment. After some discussion the bill wa | laid aside without action, and at p. m the house resolution on the death or Rep ressntatiye Mutchler of Pennsylvania wa laid bsfors the senate and Ar. Qusy, rep.
