TO INNESTIG ATE POWERS,
senator RingdaI Is After the State
Labor Bureau.

Senator Ringdal, of Polk county, in
troduced a resolution yesterday for the
appointment of a committee of five to
investigate the charges made against
the state labor bureau by the state
federation of labor and other organiza-
tons. The resolution went over under
notice of debate given by Senator Wy
man. 1t is as follows:
Whereas, 1t has been charged by certain
labor bodies that the bureau of labor of the
State of Minnesota is not conducted in ac-
cordance with the statutes prescribing the
functions and duties of said bureau and
Whereas, 1t is also charged that the funds
of said bureau and the services of the COM
missioner and his assistants have been de-
voted to purposes foreign to the functions
Of said bureau or defined by law; therefore.
be it
Resolved, That committee Of five be ap-
pointed by the president of the senate to in
vestlgate said bureau of labor and it's work
reports and the disposition of it's funds and
that said committee be authorized to sum
mon witnesses and to do all things therein
needtul and proper in the conduct OF such
investigation and report to the senate as
early as practicable.
Commissioner Powers said Yesterday
that he had requested a number of his
friends in the senate to urge the adopt
ion of the resolution as a personal Favor
to him.

MAKE 1T MORE EFFECTIVE.
Senator Miller Would Help Out the
Railroad COmmfsaion

Senator Miller yesterday intro
duced bill calculated to give some
weight to the findings of the railroad
and warehouse commission. The bill
IS IN line with the recommendations of
the interstate commerce commission
and with the bill prepared by the rail-
road and warehouse commission.
At present when complaint against
railroad company is argued before
the commission, the company may pre-
sent one line of evidence and then
after the decision has been made and
an appeal taken to the district court,
the company may present to the court
an altogether different case, without
having notified the commission. The
bill seeks to prevent this by providing
in the first place that the order of the
commission shall go into effect as soon
as it is made, and an appeal to the
courts does not SuperSede or operate
as stay in the proceedings unless the
court for good reason, offers that this
shall be done. If the court desires adj
ditional evidence it is to be taken by
the commission, and in all cases the
records of the commission are to be
taken as prima facie evidence of the
facts alleged. If at any time during
the process of the trial the commission
desires to reopen the case before it, Il
is at liberty to do so, and if 1t decides
to modify the former order or supple
lnent it with another, the case is to be
tried on the supplementary or modified
order. An appeal to the supreme court
does not operate as stay Of the order
of the commission or the order of the
district court unless the supreme court
SO orders, for good reason.
In case a jury trial is demanded in
the district court a panel of thirty
persons supposed to be the most indif-
ferent TO the cause, is to be selected
under the supervision of the court.
From these thirty the plaintiff and de-
PENDANT are to alternately strike off
one each until sixteen have been
stricken off. Then from the remaining
members, jury consisting of the first
twelve who may qualify is to try the
case. For every day the railroad COM
rany disObeyS an order of the COM
mission or court, it is subject to a max
imum fine of $780,
The reports from the railroad COM

next house of representatives. 1t
could not be done on the basis Of the
vote for Mckinley this last fall, OF
course, but on the basis of the guber-
material vote it will be seen that some
seemingly important changes might
work remarkable change in the com-
plex1on OF the house. Neither Senator
Greer nor any of the other Republicans
consider this as a contamination de-
voutly to be wished, and when the Wa
baSha senator introduces a resolution
to begin at Kittson county in number
ing the districts 1t may be assumed
that ne does it because he wants the
committee on reapportionment to go at
that Populist stronghold Of the Red
river valley when it is fresh in it's Ia
bors. The Republican party in the
lower districts can take care of itself
But the Populist strongholds will be
looked after and either punched whera
they can fight among themselves or
lacked on the short end of districts Of
strong enough Republican predictions
to swing the Pop tell effectively.
incidentally, it may be mentioned
that the sentiment of the house MEM
berS, so far as can be learned, is not
favorable to the acceptance Of the
senate's ultimatum on the reapportion-
ment scheme. The house members con-
CCUC Nhc poSIllOH OF the senate that
they represent equal territory and equal
population, but the house members
claim that they are closer to the peo.
pie, and likely therefore to be more
careful of the minor geographical di-
visions, and of local interests than ara
the members of the more pretentious
branch of the legislature For this
reason they believe they are entitled
to a larger representation on the joint
committee, as they have on other Joint
committees under the custom of the
national congress. They argue that
the senate has an effective remedy in
It's own hands if a bill which is insult
able is submitted to it by the commit,
tee, however it might be constituted
x - f
1t is possible that the senate debate
OF yesterday is the opening gun of a
legislative deadlock, which may impede
legislation throughout the session.

Sioux City Indebtedness.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE course
taken by the house committee on Pa
chic roads today makes it probable
that the railroad question will be
brought before congress again this SEES
sion in the form of a proposition to
adopt the plan of Representative Har-
r1son, Of Alabama, for a government
commission to make a settlement with
the roads. With but one dissenting
voice, the committee decided to en-
power subcommittee to consider Mr..
Harrfson's plan, which is embodied In
bill, and it is predicted by most of
the committeeman that the bill will be
reported to the house.
The railroad question was opened
before the committee by an attempt by
representatives of the Sioux City &
Paclhc company to secure an indie
pendent settlement with the govern
ment. Attorneys for the Chicago &
Northwestern appeared, by their rep.
resentatfve. Mr.. Brown, to urge the
adoption of a bill introduced by MI
Hepburn. of Iowa, authorizing the sec
rotary Of the treasury to make a set
tlement of the roads Indebtedness to
the government. There are 81 900, 600
OF subsidy bonds maturing Jan. 1, 1898,
and the government has paid interest
on these which brings the roads in
debtedness up to about $4,000,000 A
majority Of the Sioux City & Pacific
stock is held by the Chicago & North
western, which holds a lease of the road
so that any settlement practically
would be made with the latter corpor-
alton. The Sioux City interests have
opposed the funding BILL and are an
tagonistic to any separate settlement
with any of the Pacific railroad COM
panies. They desire an arrangement
by which the Union Pacific will be pre-,
vented from discriminating against
them in traffic arrangements. The
Sioux City question: was, with the Har-
rison plan, entrusted to the subcommit-
