Washington, April 29.-The question
of whether business was to be done by
the senate this week was raised TODAY
by Mr. Pettigrew ssh. Rep, S. d..
when the senate met today.
Mr.. Pettigrew proposed that the SEN
ate direct a conference on the Indian
appropriation bill
Mr.. Chandler (Rep., N. HI. however,
gave notice that he would object to any
business being done, because there was
general understanding that none
should be taken up during the absence,
OF SO MANY senators in New York TO
attend the ceremonies of dedicating the
Grant monument. Other senators pro-
tested that there had been no such
agreement made.
Thereupon Mr.. Quay (Rep., Pa.), sug-
gested that before the Indian bill was
disposed of there should be an inves-
lgation of the leases of the oil lands
or the Seneca Indians of New York. re-
marking that the senate should know
whether the Indians were being robbed
of valuable interests.
A message from the president trans
hitting the report of the commission to
adjust the boundary line between the
United States and Mexico west of the
Rio Grande, was read.
Then Mr.. Quay presented a resolution
calling upon the secretary of the in
terror for information as to whether
the leases of the SenecaS' oil lands had
been made in the usual manner. and
whether there had been any corrup-
ton.
1t was agreed to without debate
During the presentation of memorials
Mr.. SDooner offered one from several
thousand men who work for wages in
the lumber districts of Wisconsin,
asking for the enactment of the lumber
schedule of the Dingley bill
The senate was quite deluged with
resolutions.
Mr.. Vest (Dem.. Mo-. offered a reso-
luton for a comprehensive inquiry by
the commerce committee of the senate
into the causes and remedies for the
Mississippi floods. and said he would
call it I'D at the next meeting of the
senate. It directs the committee on
commerce to report at the beginning Of
the next session the cause of the Mis-
sissippi floods and means of preventing
them; whether they were due TO the
destruction of timber at the head of the
waters, whether a system of outlets
was practicable; concerning the cOndi-
ton of levees; whether the cOntinu
ance of the Mississippi commission is
WHISTLER jettieS should be
continued, and what the cost of the
work would be. He gave
notice that he would call it up next
session.
Mr. Pettigrew followed with a reso-
luton calling upon the commissioner of
labor for information as to the cost Of
prducing 1 200 feet (bOard meaSure) of
white pine lumber, the answer TO in
clude the. cost of work in the woods and
in the mill, both in the United States
and Canada. This was adopted with
the addition Of a question proposed by
Mr.. Frye (Rep., Me-, concerning the
cost of stumpage-
A resolution was offered by Mr. Nor
gan (Dem., Ala.), and adopted, request
ing the president, if not incompatible
with the public interests, to transmit
to the senate all correspondence with
the consul general and cOnsuls in Cuba
since the beginning of the war not
heretofore published.
Then, at 1872 p. m, the senate ad-
ourned until Monday

voted to the moral and Intellectual evil
which are prevalent among sinners, and
a special campaign was made by tho
! divine on doubters
! He spoke, in beginning, of the dire
eHects OF sin and evil habits, and re-
1erred to the principle involved in the
cure of the leper by Jesus
! Some people, he said, are foolishly
content TO go through life on the chance
or hope of ultimate forgiveness. II
some one had been convicted of a crime
and a monarch forgave him, would
things be the same? The monarch
pardon would have no connection with
conscience. OF all shams, the worst
is that man is going into divine bles-
sedness without reference to his past
immoral deeds.
God cannot forgive sin irrespective of
the righteous sacrifice of Christ Sin
ners should go before Christ as the
leper did. People will not do this, be-
cause thew believe they are already
clean. You will not remain the same.
You will get better or worse Be care
full not to think. that. the gospel of
Christ consists in his marvellous cures
That leper was made a partaker of the
divine nature-a partnership in the di-
vine life. The possession of this is es-
sential to all.
Then there was the palsied man, q
condition having to do with the mind.
1t is hard to say which men are the
worst to deal with-the immoral man
or one elevated in the pride of intel
lect. This last is one of the most
deathly palsies with which we have to
deal Intellectual pride in this century
has caused great moral slaughter.
People fail to think seriously of
Jesus Christ. Their love of the card
table and other evil attractions is shut
ting out Christ. The fault is that peo-
pie do not have strong religious con-
victions. Resolves are made and yet
we lack firmness and we die as we have
lived. The Dalsied man quakes and is
unable to be firm. When Christ enters
man, there is no. longer any palsied
shakings. Paul. after Christ was re-
vealed in him, spoke boldly and I'M
falteringly. All that infirmity of Paul,
which caused him TO look with pleas
ure upon the sufferings of the saints,
was purged out of him in these later
days.
Jesus is both the Father and the Holy
Spirit. There never was an incarnate
spirit. This doctrine of the trinity has
caused much discussion and doubt.
This is the result of reasoning from
the standpoint of human personality.
Rev. Narley. in this connection, took
a side prod at Mormonism. That
sect" he said, could never have been
what it is, as Romanism could not, if
they had not put aside the true concep-
ton Of God. The price of these false
teachings is shown in the lack CT whole
ness Of intellect which prevails"
Reference was made to the miracle
by which Christ caused the mother-in-
law of Peter of a fever. The fever of
card play. attention to dress and other
evils prevails TODAY and Christ is still
the only antidote
A Bible reading meeting will be held
today at 3 O'Clock, and evening serv-
ices will be held at o'clock. Mr.. Var
ley's subject will be: "A Sketch Of the
Life of Jesus Christ"

New York, April 29.-At a meeting of
the directors of the Northern Pacific
Railway company today A. z. Winter
presented his resignation as president.
He gave as the reason that to his
knowledge people other than those who
controlled when he was elected last
June had secured a large interest in
the securities of the road, and he did
not believe he would be in sympathy
with them. The resignation was laid
| on the table.
At the office of j. P. Morgan & Co.
the following statement was made:
In an interview this week we ass
Sured Mr.. Winter that if he remained
with the property he should have our
entire confidence and fullest support,
but for the reasons given by him and
Ior none other he has rendered his res
lgnation. You may state this with )ut
any reservation whatsoever. The stock
OF the Northern Pacific Railroad ccm-
pany Is held by five voting trustees,
j. 2. Morgan, George S. Neamans, Au-
gust Belmont, Johnston Livings IN and
Charles Lander Messrs Morgan and
Lander are now in Europe. and the Sc
lection of Mr.. Winters successor will
have to be deferred until their views re
ascertained or until the trustees shall
have an opportunity 20 confer on the
subject"
j. P. Morgan & Co. act as one mem
Der of the voting trustees of the five
who were appointed on the occasion of
the reorganization of the road last year
and holds for five years.
This trust is practically in control of
the securities. In railroad circles it
was said that attempts would be made
at today's meeting Of the Northern Pa
cihc directors to accept President Win
ter's resignation and elect Colonel La
mont
A prominent director in the ccnpany
said on this point: There may have
been some hope in the minds of certain
persons to elect Mr.. Lamont in Mr.
Winters place, but that is as far as tie
matter went No decision with regard

DECLINE IS DISTANT.
Situation in the Baton Rouge Coun-
try Is Becoming More Threaten
ing Daily.

Vicksburg, Miss, April 29.-The river
is stationary here at 51.9 but the belief
is growing that a decline is still far
distant. The river must fall eight feet
before any considerable area of land
can be planted in this county. and the
same applies to a very large portion of
adjacent counties.
The situation below Baton Rouge is
becoming daily more threatening.
The growing belief here is that when
the present flood concentrates it's forces
south of the Red river, which it will
not do for weeks hence. it viii attain
a volume that will sweep away the
levees on either side like chaff.
All the mighty ocean that will well
nigh average 20 miles in width from
Cairo to Vicksburg must pass through
a channel a mile or two wide after
leaving BED river.

herder named James Mccain was shot
through the right shoulder at Rawlins
this morning under peculiar circum-

town from camp. and was invited by
Henry Mayor to sleep at his house and
given key, which he was told would
let him in. Mayor neglected to tell
Mccain, however, that he had moved
so when the latter called at the former
Mayor residence, unlocked the door and
stepped inside, he was shot by a man
named Turpin, who occupied the
house with his wife, and who was
awakened by Mccain entering the
place. The injured man is getting on
