To Abolish Customs Ports,
THE AFFAIR COMPLICATED.
Action on the Printing OAice Site VIII
Delay Any Result.

The House yesterday, as stated In The
Star. recommitted the printing ONCE bill to
the committee on public buildings and
grounds. with instructions to report bill
providing for site on land now owned by
the United States. This action, II Is said,
will further complicate matters and delay
action toward providing adequate and safe
quarters for the printing office. 1t is thought
that the Senate will not agree to any pla n
which calls for the occupancy of the city
parks. as 1t is on record as opposed to this
Kind of proposition. Those persons who are
urging Immediate action are afraid that In
the struggle between the two legislative
bodies which Is to come over this phase Of
the question serious. If not fatal delay will
ensue In the selection of a site and erection
of building.
The motion to recommit the bill was made
by Mr.. Bankhead. and was rendered neces-
sary by the adoption Of the amendment
providing for site on a public reservation
Ihis amendment changed the whole ASPECT
OF the bill. rendering nugatory many of the
secuons OF the measure as 1t then stood
MI. Bankhead explained that 1t would be
necessary for the committee to draft an
other bill. The committee will select a site
ana bring In bill with the selection named.

SOME OTHER MISTAKES.
II You See 1t in the Record 1t il Not
Always So.

Notwithstanding the serious error made
by the executive clerks Of the Senate last
Thursday. whereby Mr.. Charles H. T. Tay-
icr's name was enormously printed among
the combinations on Friday morning, there
has been no change in their system yet.
They still give the stenographer's clerk,
whose duty 1t Is to make the copy for the
Record. all of his Information in sheet
Of numbers, and on Saturday afternoon
this sheet contained another mistake,
which would have led to an erroneous pub
LEGATION had It not been fer his care and
patience In discovery the right number. The
list on Saturday contained the number
1883 twice. owing to an error. whereby the
f1gure was set down instead of the figure
7. AS the executive clerks of the Senate
make 1t a practice to leave the building
almost Immediately after adjournment,
there Is no possibility of verifying the
numbers which they furnish, either to the
stenographers or to the press, without re-
sorting to the telephone, and in many cases
TO messengers to hunt up the clerks and
correct errors When the Senate, by reso-
luton; some five years ago, decided to pub
ish the names Of persons nominated and
confirmed and rejected In the Congressional
Record. 1t was the intention that this copy
should be furnished to the printer by the
executive clerks, whose business II Is not
only to attend the executive sessions but
to see to the detail Of notifying the Presi-
miiiar with all the features Of each case
AS an accommodation to these clerks how
ever, the stenosraphers Of the Senate, who
furnish all the other copy to the printers,
agreed to send this information down to
the printing Office for them. Thus sprang
up the system of number, by which the ex-
ecutive clerks indicate combinations and
reflections to the clerks of the stenograph-
er's ONCE. The mistakes in numbers have
been quite numerous, but In almost every
instance the clerks Of the stenographer's
office have been alert enough to remedy
these mistakes before publication. The case
Of Mr.. Taylor Is a notable exception. Not
many months ago 1t happened that a man
whose nomination had not been considered
read In the Congressional Record Of his
confirmation. He was then living In Maine
and Immediately FASTENED to Washington
to take the oath of office The State De-
partment, upon his application for his
commission. telephoned I'd the Capitol, and
thus the mistake was discovered. The err
ror In that case was one Of blankinE the
numbers, and the man from Maihe was put
to great expense to no purpose. Only
a few weeks ago the daily list OF numbers
contained figure which made 1t appear
that Mr.. Long, nominated for Florida
office. had been confirmed by the Senate
The stenographer's clerk happened to know,
through gossip that had reached his ears,
that Long had been rejected. and verified
the fact by dint of an hours industrious
telephoning. He thus saved the Record
from q mistake.

RAILWAY COMMISSIONERS.
Proceedings of the Second Days Sc
sion of the Convention.

sion Of the Convention.
The second days session of the sixth an
nual convention of railroad commissioners
was opened today at the rooms of the in
terstate commerce commission by taking
up the unfinished BUSH ess, namely. the re-
port OF the committee on pooling of freights
and division of earnings. The following res
oiution. offered by Mr.. Seymour as a sub
stitute for the resolution appended to the
minority report was adopted:
Resolved, That 1t Is the sense of this
convention that competing carriers may
safely be permitted to make lawful con-
tracts with each other for the apportion-
ment OF competitive trafic Or the earnings
therefrom. provided that conditions and re-
strlctons be imposed which protect the pub
lie from excessive and unreasonable
charges"
The report of the committee on uniform
classification of frelghts was read and
adopted. The report recommends that Con-
sress enact law requiring the different
carriers throughout tho United States to
adopt a uniform classification Of freights
within a time to be fixed by the act. in de-
fault thereof, that such classification be
made by the interstate commerce commits
sion or special commissioner provided for
that purpose. giving notice to each carrier
and an opport unity to be heard before said
classification becomes operative. The report
provides for the appointment Of a commit
the representatives Of the different asso-
Citations. e.
A paper was present by Mr.. Peabody
Of the Railway Review. which discussed q
scientific basis for making OF carriers rate
schedules. He favored the expression Of the
transportation relation of the thousands Of
articles offered for coinage by the use Of
percentages, while the varying conditions
and conflicting interests of the various sec.
tons of the country rlay be accommodated
by the grouping Of all articles into what
may be called generic groups.
Use of shippers Cars.
A report of the, committee on abuses
carsed by the use of shippers cars in rail-
way equipment was presented by Mr.. Isaac
B. Brown. in which the conclusion Is reach
ed in favor of 1.-The passage of an amend
ment to the act to regulate interstate COM
merce embodying the principle contained
In the Pennsylvania constitution, wherein
every officer. director. agent, or employe
OF railway company Is prohibited from
holding any interest, directly or Indirectly,
in any. equipment used on such railroads
other than that belonging to common car
riers: and in addition. SO adjust the rates
of mileage for the use Of shippers cars
that they shall be allowed only reasonable
return on the investment made in such
cars Should such legislation as suggested
be igeffectual, then the prohibiting Of the
transportation of Interstate commerce.
would seem to be necessity"
The report was adopted.

MAJ. MOORE's WORDS.
CoiOred CitfRena Who Resent Re1ec'
ton Upon Them.

UPON
The expression attributed TO Maj. Moore
that one-half of the 200 colored people
in this community are idle and many Of
them so vicious that preparations were
necessary to prevent lawlessness on their
part has called out protests In various
forms from colored citizens Of the District.
Resolutions adopted at a meeting last Fri
day at Lewis H. Douglass Office the sub
stance of which were published in The
Star, gave formal expi ession to the send-
ments of the colored people who resented
the words of Maj. Moore Several COM
nunications Of the same purport as the
resolutions have been received by The Star.
Mr.. Samuel @. Thompson, who signs his
name as secretary of the N. E. r. Council.
No. 80. one of the writer's. declares that
Maj. Moore's statement does not represent
the feeling OF the best white citizens Of the
District toward the coiored people. and il
MOI warranted by the acts or the attitude
OF the colored people. The colored people
OF this city, he says, are an intelligent.
peaceful. law-abiding class. and not wi
cicus negroes They have been." he de-
clares. true. loyal and patriotic to the
flag and the country. They have been ever
this government whenever its welfare de-
manded their services and protection. II
the statement of the chief of police be
true" the writer continues, this extra pre-
caution taken at the approach Of the Coxey
army was taken only to prevent demon
stration by the Intelligent. iaw-abidirg, but
vi employed colored citizens of this city.
1T is possible that Maj. Moore would have
the people Of this country believe that the
colored people of this city have such limited
knowledge of the District laws as to fancy
they would find redress for any of their
grievances by participating in the Coxey
movement? Does he want some pretext
upon which to shoot down the colored man
and drag him into court?'
The conduct OF the colored people, he as
serts. has not been such as to necessitate
such extra precautions. while II might
possibly be fact that there are AZ 600 COL
ored people unemployed" Mr.. Thompson as
serts. ut is equally true that they have not
even asked for bread. The colored man is
neither pauper nor a tramp. He does not
ask TO be fed. but to be given the fruits of
his honest labor"

CAPITOL TOPICS.
Additional Estimates.

Secretary Carlisle has submitted to the
House request for an increase Of the force
at the subtreasuries at Chicago, St. Louis
and New Orleans as follows: Chicago, four
extra men at S. 400: New Orleans, two at
g. 400: st. Louis. four at 5000. He has
also sent to the House q Recommendation
that the sundry civil bill be amended to al
low $1,000 for protecting the salmon Ash
cries Of Alaska.
+ To Pension Life-saver..e
Some attention will soon be given by the
House committee on pensions to the Cum
mings bill. granting pensions to certain
persons in the nfe-saving service. Various
efforts have been made to get favorable
action by the House on legislation similar
to those proposed by the bill now pending,
but without avail. The meritorious nature
OF the measures are acknowledged, and in
1881 Secretary John Sherman recommended
that Congress take early steps for the ex-
tension OF the pension laws to the crews of
the life-saving establishments. A bill SINH
lar to that now before the committee, which
received a favorable report in the Ffftieth
Congress. proposed to place on the pension
roll the names of those honorably discharg-
ed supertn tendents keepers and surfmen
or the service who became disabled by dis
ease or injury incurred In the actual per-
Torrance Of their duties in the service and
incident thereto. 1t also provides for pen
sions for the widows and minor children
OF such men, under sixteen years age,
when the death Of the husband or father
is due to disease or injury attributable to
the service. The bill includes as benef-
Charles only those members of the service
whose duties render them peculiarly sub
Ject to accident and exposure.
To Abolish Customs Port..
Chairman Barwig of the House committee
on expenditures in the Treasury Depart
ment is awaiting further information from
the department before again calling his
committee together to consider the bill
for the adjustment of various customs
ports throughout the country Evidences
of opposition to the bill by members whose
constituencies will be affected thereby
have already begun to manifest themselves
They Will be given an opportunity to be
heard before final action Is taken. Treasury
officials have given their approval to the
measure so it Is altogether probable that
the committee will take favorable action
