The sanpcte Valley Railway COM
pany's survey to this city is COM
pleted.
The engineer corps, under Chief
Young. reached Fourteenth South
street yesterday and camped at the
corner of Second West, the spot being
the city limits. The surveyors started
from Moroni just two months ago and
the work has been pushed ahead with
ali the rapidity possible. The grade IS
a fine one and through the Jordan
rarrows parallels the Rio frande
Western, and from that point on to
the limits follows the Western and
Union Pacific closely.
Having completed this preliminary
work The surveyors will break camp
today
What will the next move be?
That is what railway men and 9th
ers interested are asking, and while
no one processes 10 know exactly it is
evident that the company means bust

President Brubeck left for the south
yesterday and will make a thorough
inspection of the system. together
with the line selected for the extern

NICARAGUAN CANAL BILL.
Length of Debate on it Causing some
Impotence.

Washington, Jan. S.-There is going
to he some impotence in the Senate on
the mart of the champions of other bills
over the prolonged debate on the
Nicarag1Ia canal bill The advocates Gt
the Bankruptcy bill are growing
eSnecially solicftous 1t is rumored that
Senator George, who has the bank
runtcv bill in his keeping, would soon
attempt TO have it taken up even II IN
doing so he would have TO ask tnat the
Nicaraguan bill be unplaced.
Mr.. George pronounced tins rumor
as without foundation. but admitted
That he had been disappointed that the
debate on the canal bill had continued
for such a length Of time. He said it
had been understood when the order of
consideration of the measure had been
agreed on that the debate on the canal
hill would not continue to exceed six
days.
Senator Morgan said at the close OF
the session yesterday that he did not
think there would be a great many
more speeches on the canal Dill and he
believed two more days would bring the
debate to a close if it could continue
without interruption
Senator George expects to encounter
considerable opposition to the bank
ruptcy bill 1t is understood that the
advocates of the Torrey bill will oppose
the pending bill. The fight will be in a.
general way between the advocates OF
voluntary bankruptcy and those Of in
voluntary bankruptcy.

PopULIsTs AND REPUBLICANS.
why They Should Act Together in
Organizing the Senate.

Washington, Jan. S.-There is one
consideration which has not SO far
been taken into account, which may in
fuence the Republican and Populist
senators to come together at the first
meeting of the Senate after the 18th OF
March for the reorganization of that
body, and that is the effect that such
a, combination or the failure to make
It, the opportunity being presente !,
would have upon the two parties in
the southern states. It is understood
that southern representatives Of both
PARTIES are bringing this phase of the
question to the attention of senators
and urging that an organization in
which both parties would have rep
resentation in the distribution of the
patronage and the arrangement of the
committees would be the best evidence
st would be possible to give the south
eru voters of the effectiveness of this
Joint work in the late campaign and
the strongest assurance possible to
give them that the combination had
not been made before the people mere
IL for the purpose OF hoodwinking
them. The Populists claim that in adj
dition to Senators PETER, Allen, Kyle
and Stewart, the avowed Populists now
sitting in the Senate, Senator jones, of
Nevada, will certainly act with them,
as Will Senators Irby and Tillman, of
South Carolina, and Mr.. Butler, of
North Carolina, giving them a repre-
scntation of eight senators after
March 4.
4 great many Republicans disparagt
the idea, of any reorganization and
many who are not adverse to it con-
tend that an agreement between the
Republicans and Democrats is more
natural than connbina ton Of Repub-
leans and Populists.

COLUMBIAN SEAL CATCH.
The Largest Ever Made in ANY
Single Year

Washington, Jan. S.-The state de-
parJment has published an official re-
port from United States Consul Rob
erts at Voctoria on the seal catch OF
the British Columbian sealing fleet
last year. The figures show the catch
to be the largest ever made in a single
year, and that the fear once enter
tanned that the hunters would be SER
iously handicapped from the compuI-
sorry use of the spear has been over
come. The total Canadian catch was
94,474, and of those taken in Bering
sea, II, 705 were males and 1886 fe-
males The catch in '93 was 70, So
In addition this year 573 skins taken by
American schoonerS were landed at
Victoria, bringing up to 95,04S the total
number of skins landed there. The seal

THE POOLING BILL.
Impression is That the Bill VIII Be
Reported.

Washington. Jan. S.-Senate COM
Tnittee on interstate commerce had
the House pooling bill under consider
alton today and postponed final COM
lnittee action until next Tuesday, when
The committee meets again. Impressions
today were generally favorable to the
bill, and the belief was expressed after
adjournment that the bill would be
reported practically without amend
ment at the next meeting. An amend
ment suggested by Chairman Nor
Tison, of the interstate commerce
commission, was discussed at some
length, but the opinion seemed to pre-
vail that If the bill be amended in any
way at SO late a day it would fail, be-
cause of antagonism in the Senate. 1t
WAS resolved, however, to- invite Col
onel Morrison to be present at the next
meetiig, TO explain the amendment ne
suggests
The change he seeks to secure is one
which Will make it evidenu to the
country that the commission has now
power to supervise and control pool
ing contracts before they take effect.
Colonel Morrison says in his letter,
there appears TO be an impression prev
alent that the bill as 1T stands gives
the commission this supervision, but
This is not true.

PACIFIC RAILROADS.
Statement by e. EIIcry Anderson Be-
fore the Senate Committee.

Washington. Jan. S.-The Senate Com
rittee on Pacific Railroads today heard a
statement by z. ElIery Anderson, one of
the government directors of the Union Pa
enc railroad, with special reference to the
possible foreclosure of the first mortgage
ard its effect on the government interest.
The committee decided to take no action
until after the House shall act, but will
then be prepared TO deal with the ques-
Jion. The members Of the committee were
generally of the opinion that the question
was of sufficient urgency to justify its
immediate consideration and no room was
left for doubt that is would be taken up,
for the general feeling that any action
of the Senate committee or the Senate
itself would be futile unless the House
had already acted. It was stated that
bills were already In course of prepara-
ton for the foreclosure of the first mort
gage on the Union Pacific road because
of default in the payment of interest and
the opinion was freely expressed that un-
less some action should be taken at this
session, the United States would fail TO
secure any return for It's investment in
the road. Efforts Will now be directed to-
wards securing action by the House and
fl is stated that the House Committee on
Rules has virtually agreed TO give the
Pacific Railroad committee a. day in the

RITCHIE AND KICKS.
The Farmers Alliance Attorneys
EnoXHa NofI,inc of the Charces


Knows Nothing of the Charges.
Washington, Jan. Samuel J.
Ritchie, who in a memorial presented
to Congress yesterday, preferred GER
tain charges against Judge Kicks, has
left the city, expecting TO return in a.
few days. Mr. Ritchie's attorneys,
Messrs. Schellabarger & Wilson and
Benjamin S. Butterworth, who have
been his chief counsel in his big suit,
discIain any knowledge Of the charges
presented against Judge Kicks except
what they learned from the news
papers. These gentlemen have been
Mr.. Ritchie's attorneys almost since
the beginning of this famous litigation,
but although they express themselves
cautiously, there is every reason to be-
Iieve that in this offshoot Of the case
Mr. Richie is proceeding without their
assistance. Judge Wilson, it was
learned, refused point blank to con-
duct this proceeding before Congress.
The reports of the subcommittee
which has been investigating the
charges against United States Judge
Kicks were to have been made to the
judiciary committee today, but the
subject went over until tomorrow,
when a special meeting of the full COM
mittee will be held. at that time it is
probable that new charges against
Judge Kicks, made by Samuel Richie,
lof Akron, O., will be taken up.
