CARRIED THE DAY.
Triumph of the Government of Rose
berV in a Great Crisis.

LONDON, May 24.-The debate in the
Commons on the budget bill. which was
expected in some quarters TO rove the
downfall Of Lord Rosebery's Ministry. was
opened this afternoon with gun fired by
Sir John Lubbock, Liberal Unionist, who
moved that the budget committee be en-
powered to divide the budget bill into two
parts and 10 embody the provisions
respecting the sinking fund in different
manner.
Sir William Harcourt said the object of
the motion was 10 revert to system by
which the House of Lords would be able
tn overthrow financial measures emanaung
from the House OF Commons. This sys-
tenn had already been condemned by
Disraeli and Palmerston and by the COM
mittee of the House of Commons. cloud
cheers.) Another reason for Sir John
Lubhock'S motion was TO waste the time OF
the House by involving it IN two bills and
two separate statements from the CON-
mittee and in two third readings. At tie
present tine also there were special
reasons why the Commons should preserve
absolute control of the finances of the
country. Mr.. Goschen and several minor
Conservatives supported the motion, after
which division was taken with the result
that it was objected to by vote of 161 to
III. The announcement of the Govern
mentS victory was greeted with prolon ged
Liberal cheers.

THOSE POOR MEN.
Errors Corrected by Mr..
Huntington.
HAVE NOT GROWN WEALTHY.
Central Pacific Builders Have
No Money.
AVE NOT GROWN WEALTHY.
SOME DEBTS NOT To BE PAID.
AS, for Instance, the Forty Millions
in Interest Advanced by
the Government.

WASHINGTON, May 4-RepresentatiYes
of the Central Pacific Company appeared
before the House Committee on Pacific
Railroads to-day to give their views on
the Pacific Railroad bill introduced by
Reilly Of Pennsylvania. President Hun
tington spoke on the difficulties encoun-
tered in organizing and building the
roads. The impression that the builders
had been made rich was erroneous. When
the road was completed there were no
Government bonds left, but many debts.
The company always managed to keep its
credit good. Coal. imported at first from
Australia, was agreatexpenss. The shares
had to be sold from 70 TO so to pay debts.
and Wells. Fargo & Co. had been paid
S1,5OO,O00 for carrying the mails. while the
Central Pacific received but $500, ,000
Chairman Reilly suggested that the last
of the tirst-mortgage bonds would mature
in 1899 and inquired what the road pro-
posed to do.
The president replied that great roads
almost never paid their frst-mortgage
bonds. They were replaced By other
issues. He was anxious to pay the debt,
but as long as the Government was draw
ing its interest time was no object to it.
Replying to question from MI Boatner,
Mr.. Huntington said that be had submit
ted no plan of reorganization. The bill
submitted to the Senate committee was
not his own plan, but he was pleased with
it because it outlined a plan by which all
the creditors would get their money and
under which the road could still live. By
selling another issue of mortgage bonds to
replace the original the Government placed
$40, 1000, 900 in the treasury in ninety days.
One hundred and ten million dollars would
be required for mortgage-bond issue at
2R per cent to cover the debts of the road
to the Government and all other parties,
the Government guaranteeing all the
issue. He was certain the earnings of the
road would be spent to defray its current
obligations.
Representative BoatDer reminded PresI-
dent Huntingto that the Government had
paid interest for years on the bonds, say
ing the suppostion had been that the road
was to pay back the interest, and inquired
whether the road intended to pay the Gov
ernment the $40 0000.0O it had expended in
that way.
Mr.. Huntington replied no, and said chat
basing the matter purely on grounds of
equity, the road should pay the Govern
ment nothing. because the Government had
crippled the road by subsidizing rivals,
which took away much of the business.
He did not question the policy of the Gov
ernment in this respect, but considering il
as financial transaction, it had its bear
ing on this contract.
Mr.. Huntington knew of no plan, with
out an extension Of time, whereby the Gov
ernment could be paid, assuring the COM
mittee the owners of the road would not
administer it for 100 years without getting
anything out of il.

ANY OF THE EARLIER STAGES
of Consumption can be cured. It's
a matter of evidence-strong enough
and complete enough to warrant the
makers of DR.. Pieroe's Golden Med
ical Discovery in promising this
If it's taken in time and given q
fair trial, they'll refund the money
in any case where their medicine
fails to benefit or cure.
But it's a medicine that doesn't
fail; it goes to the root of the
trouble. Consumption is developed
through the blood, and must be
cured in the same way. It's a scrof-
ulous affection of the lungs-a blood
taint. And the surest remedy for
Scrofula in all its forms, the most
potent blood-cleanser, strength-re-
storer, and fesh-builder known to
medical science, is the "Golden
Medical Discovery" It cures Scrof-
ula; it cures Consumption; it cures
all Bronchial, Throat, and Lung af-
fections, Asthma, Weak Lungs,
Severe Lingering Coughs, and kin
dred ailments-through the blood.
And if there's no help, there's
no pay.

Blake, commanded by Captain w. V.
Hamilton and carrying the flag of Vice
Admiral Hopkins, K.C.B.. commanding
the North Atlantic squadron. and the
cruiser Tartar. commanded by Captain
Henry S. Fleet, dropped anchor In Boston

since the civil war that British ship Of

tain amount of calmness. But when the
question of a navy was touched. the feel
ings OF indifference must yield to the en-
thusiasm inspired by record of glory un-
