of House Measures.

The Senate devoted considerable time
late yesterday afternoon to the passage
or bills from the District Committee
which did not arouse discussion AS soon
as any bin caused debate 1t was proniptIy
passed over and the next bill on the
calendar was taken up. Only House bills
Were considered, as it was far too late
to take up Senate bills with any hone
OF getting them through the House.
TIE following District bills passed the
Senate and went to the President: The
bill compelling railroad companies to
remove abandoned tracks, under penalty
OF a fine OF 500 per day; the bin
regulating cemeteries and burials in the
District; the bin permitting the Wash

This view of the situation is of course
very nearly also the same one to take or
any prospective general good times through

one question, whether manufacturers and

this matter of confidence. and what

no question that the rankest OF McKinIev

FAIR But BREEZY TODAY.
Ihe Sun VIII Shine Brightly and
There Is No Possibility of Rain.


The fair weather promised by the Wea-
ther Bureau for Inauguration day has
materialized and the doubts and misgivings
born OF the usual capers OF the climate
on and about March 4, have passed away.
The high wind which prevailed early last
night gradually quieted toward morning
and though the breeze Is yet sharp and a
little singing, the cyclonic feature that
markedits advent yesterday afternoon has
entirely vanished.
Major Dunwoody, forecaster at the Wea-
ther Bureau, stated last night that the
temperature would drop to freezing this
morning, but would gradually rise during
the day.
There is not the slightest possibility
or rain under present conditions, and
though IL wiIl be cold out in the open air.
warm coats and wraps win obyiate this
difficulty. The weather officials are
felicitating themselves on their successful
efforts to secure fair weather for the
day, II cold, and most assuredly they have
the thanks OF the local population and the
thousands OF visitors for their happy solu-
tion OF the vexed question.

Senator Gallinger was greatly disap-
pointed with the action of the Senate
conferees yesterday in receding from tie
amendment to the sundry civil bill per

granted in other cities and was one to
which there could be no reasonable OBJ
lection to giving such patients the ser
vices of any physicians they might desire.
He expressed the hope that this legisIa-
ton might be effected at the next ses-
sion.

The advance agent of prosperity. The

months, is almost entirely due to the
nearness of the change OF administration
Ihey assert that The fine tone of the mar
ket yesterday was due to the presence of
Mr.. Mckinley in Washington, the actual
physical presence at the Capital OF the
new administration. They say that every
thing looks like strong beginning of a
fine boom, that the market is going up
and up, for weeks to come, and ouite
possibly that even the great Mckinley
boom which is to take us out of our slough
OF despond, and is to last four years. an

They point, very Gleefully to the va
rious indications that confidence Is al
ready restored, and they say nothing
can stop this advance. But there is an
other side TO this picture. Attention
was called in, this column a week ago to
the fact that just such a fine rise in
prices occurred in November up to the
very day of the election of Mckinley.
and that 1t was all sentimental dis
counting of the election, and that on the
day after the election prices dropped
and continued to drop for a month, and,
In fact, didn't stop going down until

Northern Pacific and Manitoba Settle
Land Suits.

LanO Sults.
Milwaukee, Specialize three uits
instituted by Receivers Payne. Oaks
and Rous against the st. Paul, Mime
apolis & Manitoba Railway company
growing out of the dispute over land
grants in the State of Minnesota have
been amicably settled, and an order Of
dismissal will be entered in a few
days. In the settlement the Northern
Pacific receives secure 75,S45.3S acres
of valuable land, all in Minnesota, and
$4,000 in cash Most important Of all,
however, is the assurance that set
tiers who have purchased land in good
faith from the Manitoba company are
not to be disturbed in their possession,
but, instead, the two companies are to
join in making the titles good and
binding. The Manitoba company takes
80, 593.15 acres of land and $4,000 in
cash.
The three suits grew out of the land
grants made by congress to the North
ern Pacific and the grants made sub
sequently to the State of Minnesota
and to the st. Paul, Minneapolis &
Manitoba company. The lands were
patented by the United States after
the grant to the Northern Pacific. The
grants to the state and TO the Manito-
ba company, made subsequently, en-
croached upon the one made to the
Northern Pacific company, but nc ac-
ton was taken until fourteen years
elapsed, when the first suit was
brought. The delay raised several
