HOT REPORT MADE BY A COMMIT
TEE AT A MEETING OF ANTI
PLATT MEN.
PADDING AT THE PRIMARIES
LIST OF ASSEMBLY DISTRICTS IN
WHICH ENROLMENT WAS ONE
THIRD ILLEGAL.
REED MEN LOSE IN INDIANA.
Liberal Use of Money Did No Good
mckinley Gets Ten Out of
Sixteen Votes.

NEW YORK,Jan. 30.-A meeting was
heid at the Madison Square Music hall
tonight by the members Of the five
nundred who are opposed to Thomas
Z. Platt. The meeting was called to
order by Edward N. Mitchell, and Cor
nel1us N. Bliss was made permanent
chairman. MIR. Mitchell presented the
report OF the committee of twenty-five.
which reads in part as follows:
The committee has received very en-
couraging assurances of support and
cooperation from the Republicans
throughout the city. Under the direc-
ton of members of the bar acting with
the committee, a number of inspectors
charged with fraudulent conduct at
the recent primaries have been ar
rested and held for trial by city mag
istrates and their cases are now pend
Ing before the grand jury. The COM
mittee gives a list of the assembly dis
trfcts in which they allege the enroll
ment has been padded to the extent of
$4,000 names out of a total of 1000
Continuing the report says:
The general conclusion drawn from
the investigation and from which the
evidence leaves no possible avenue Of
escape, is that the men in control Of
the county organization have devised
and carried through deliberate sched-
ule of wholesale fraud, intended to Sc
cure themselves without regard to the
will of the majority of the Republican
voters, the absolute control of the or
ganization and Of the delegations from
this city to the national and state con-
ventions. The frauds were not spo-
radio. They were so general through
out the city, the methods pursued in
various parts of the city were so SINH
lar and the work was so skillfully con-
centrated at the points where it would
most surely accomplish its purpose,
that the proof of carefully prear-
ranged design is irresistible"
Resolutions were passed favoring a
new enrolment throughout the city.
By many this is regarded as the first
step towards separate and independ-
ent organization. When the enrolment
is completed the committee of five hun
dred will then proceed to take fur
ther action.

Mr.. WadSworth (Rep., n. ", from
the committee on agriculture, reported
the agricultural appropriation bill. The
report of the elections committee in
favor Of the sitting member, D. B. Cul-
person, from the Fourth Texas district,
and against T. H. Davis, was adopted
without division. The unanimous re-
port on the case of ]. II. Rosenthal
versus Miles Crowley, from the Tenth
Texas district, in favor OF Crowley,
was placed on the calendar, and it was
agreed that Mr.. Rosenthal, the con-
testant, should have an hour tomorrow
to present his case, when it will be
acted on
A resolution was adopted requesting
the president, at his earliest conven-
lence, to transmit to congress the re-
port OF the board Of engineers on the
Nicaraguan canal. The bill to amend
the dependent pension act Of 1890 so
that in considering widows claims

the death of the soldier, was passed.
Mr.. McClelland Dem, n. " made
the point OF no quorum, but the speak
er counted one. A bill was passed to
incorporate the National Society OF

Omaha the use of the Fort Omaha mil
ltary reservation, which is to be aban-
uoned by the government next spring.

1ana,s Sixteen Votes.
NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 3O.-The Re
publican state nominating convention
held it's second days session today and
at a late hour tonight is still in ses-
sion and very noisy. Kellogg's men,
who are for Reed, have been losing
ground all day. The business men in
New Orleans, the sugar planters, when
1T became evident last night that the
money Kellogg is alleged to have used
would carry the convention for Reed,
got together quietly and such pressure
was brought to bear in behalf of Nc
Kinley men under Capt. A. L. VIM
berly, who had refused to use money in
the fight, that a caucus of all the lead
ers except Kellogg was held, and it
was decided to send two Mckinley del
egates at large and two Reed men to
st. Louis. Kellogg will not be on the
delegation.
This will give Mckinley a large
majority of the delegates from this
state. Ten of the sixteen delegates to
be elected who will vote for Mckinley.
A fight was made in the convention on
A. Cage who is candidate for re-
election as chairman of the state cen
be elected will vote for Mckinley
man. The excitement rose to such
height that chairs were overturned,
Chairman Guicjard thrust from his
place on the platform delegates knock
ed down and trampled under foot, and
the utmost confusion reigned. The
fight against Cage was not successful
About midnight the convention set
tied down to work, and the first i'm
portant move was accomplished. The
fusion ticket put up by the sugar
planters was endorsed, making three
conventions which have declared in
it's favor.

BEYOND RIDICULE.

Congress is SURPRISING it's own rec
ord in dealing with foreign affairs. We
thought that it had achieved the CHI
max Of absurdity when it proposed to
call on the signatory powers interested
in the enforcement of the treaty Of
Berlin to do their duty in putting an
end to Armenian atrocities. This
bumptious and sentimental interference
in a case where we can do nothing.
unless we do it directly on our own re-
sponsibility and at our own cost, was
bad enough. But it remains for ma
jority resolution from the committee on
foreign relations to scatter all prece-
dents to the four winds, and to set the
United States upon a pedestal for the
unextinguishable laughter of the world
This resolution actually addresses itself
to the government Of Spain asking that
country, in view Of the earnest SYM
pathy Of the United States with the
people Of Cuba, to accord to the
armies, with which it is engaged in
war the rights of belligerency, as the
same are recognized under the law Of
nations" 1t would be ineligible, al
though wholly improper, for a legisla-
tive body in this country to ask Spain
to grant independence to Cuba. It
would be Ineligible, also, to pass a
resolution calling upon the president
of the United States to recognize the
Cuban insurgents as belligerents. But a
request to the government engaged in
putting down rebellion in it's own ter
ritory to favor us by recognizing the
revolutionary party as belligerents Is.
as we might say, 'out Of all whooping."
The United States senate has made
a holy show Of itself on more than one
occasion, and Its most active and sue
cessfnl clowns are found in the COM
mittee on foreign relations. They have
certainly broken all records in tits
latest performance: and. II the nations

so alive to the humor Of the situation
as to be convulsed with merriment In
sober fact, although there have been
good many times when the people of
this country had reason to be ashamed
OF their representatives at Washington,
many occasions on which those men
have played them false, and been
guilty Of stupidity and knavery and
folly. there has never been. at our
worst, any such Exhibition of senility
as the daily proceedings of the SEN

ence to foreign affairs is one which
covers the nation with ridicule, and

AMEND THE BANKING LAWS.
j. S. PilIsbury Points Many Needed
Changes.
Special to the Globe.

Special to the Globe
WASHINGTON, Jan. 30-The letter
written by ]. s. Pillsbury to Senator
knute Nelson concerning the latter's
Dill for Improvement in the national
Dank laws is interesting, inasmuch as
IL expresses the views of a man who
Is familiar with the details of finan-
clal institutions and their needs The
communication has been printed in
full in the Congressional Record. and is
as follows:
nave read text of the bill which you
nave introduced governing our national
DanKs. | most heartily approve of altera-
1ui and am glad you have taken up the
subject of national banking After ten years
experience as director of a national bank
will you permit me to make a few sugges-
lions.
Amend the law SO to permit and in
TACT make penalty for banks to make re-
ment from the fact that almost any national
bank would have sufficient liability when It
loans Its deposits. and the risk is great when
any bank goes beyond this and borroWs
money by rediscounts.
Second 1t should be made a penal of
tense for the officers of any bank to borrow
money directly or indirectly from the bank
of which they are officers. 1t has become
quite the custom for officers of banks to
take the money, which they use without per-
mission from the fact that they are officers.
more banks than any other factor in the
management of national banks More than
half of the failures of national banks have
been caused largely by the officers taking
money from the banks without the directors
knowledge.
Third The officers of all national banks
should be prohibited from loanng any of the
funds of the bank of which they are officers
above the sum say of $780, except where the
limits or loans to customers have been fixed
by the discount committee or directors of
the bank. And no loan should be made above
first have been passed upon by the discount
committee directors of the bank. 1t is
entirely wrong and should be considered a
misdemeanor for officers of banks to make
loans their own judgment without con-
sultng the directors or discount committee
advantage of all bills which may be de-
stroyed or lost, as for Instance, when
bank bills are destroyed by fire or lost by
water or anything Of this kind. banks should
have the advantage of these losses. instead
as now under the general banking law the
as the government has full security by the
deposits of bonds for the issuing of these
bills. The financial crisis through which this
country has recently passed has given ex-
perience to those who are connected with
the management of banks that ii is necessary
ed by making these amendments for the
safety of the community. and all financial
institutions should be so managed that safety
is the first object of bank.
Excuse me for calling your attention to
this. | should not do so except that my ex-
perience teaches me that such amendments
would make the law mere perfect, and would
bring around such guards for the safety of
the community as are absolutely necessary.

CARNIvtAL9eAND CLIMATE.

II the postponement Of the storming
of Fort Karniva1 last night, made nee
essary by the spring-like temperature,
caused something Of a disappointment,
1t has at least its compensation in fur
nlshing conclusive and final answer
to those who have persisted in assert
Ing that the carnival was In any way
detrimental to the Northwest by spread
Ing abroad incorrect impressions as to
the severity Of our winters. The real
objection to a winter carnival is and
always has been exactly the probable
ity that has already made itself real
lied fact in three seasons out Of the
four when there was carnival in st.
Paul. Our climate Is too mild to as
sure the uninterrupted carrying out
of plans that would meet with no such
difficulty in many places of lower
latitude.
That there is snow in Minnesota in
winter, and that water freezes suff1-
GENTLY to form ice are facts neither
unknown nor controverted. That our
winters are extraordinarily mild, that
the ordinary temperature will not leave
standing in good condition for many
days together any structure, however
modest, that is built of ice, and that we
can count only occasionally upon wealth
er cold enough to make winter sports
either comfortable or practicable are
other facts as to which the outside pub
lie is less we'll informed They ought
to be fairly well established now by the
successive experiences of st. Paul This
carnival has been a success as far as
our climate will permit. The final
demonstration will be made as soon
as the weather grows cold enough.
Our visitors have had good time, and
everybody has been we'll rewarded for
a visit to the carnival grounds. Now
let us note also as one result Of this
enterprise, that : it has been demon
strated once more that the terrors Of
the Minnesota winter are pure fictions
of the imagination; and that a celebra-
ton which could be carried out with
out hindranee in almost any other city
north Of an east and west line drawn
south Of Lake Erie, is embarrassed in
st. Paul by the prevailing mildness of
our winter temperature. --s ~.

RIGHT TO REGULATE.
interstate Commerce Cases Before
the Supreme Court.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-The SUI
preme court Of the United States has
been engaged today in listening to ar
guments in two cases which bear upon
the right of the interstate commerce
commission to regulate interstate COM
MERGE The first of these cases was
directed against the Texas Pacific Rail-
road company and involved the right
OF railroads to carry imported articles
at lower rate than is paid on domes-
tic traffic, and the second against the
cincinnati, Texas & Pacific and other
railroad companies, involving the right
to charge more for short than a long
haul The argument in the long and
short haul case had been concluded
when the court adjourned today. When
1t is finished the court will hear ar
guments in the pension case Of Judge
Long, in which the question of the right
of the commissioner of pensions to re-
duce a pension once fixed will be de-
cided
