Coils P. Huntington, president of the
Southern Pacific Railroad company, is again
prominently before the public because he dl-
rected the big lobby in Washington in the
interest of the Pacific railroad funding bill
that was defeated yesterday in the house.
The public is familiar with the outlines Of
his Monte Cristo career and understands
the bitter feeling against the system which
keeps the Pacific coast in the grip of this
railroad His personal characteristics are
not so we'll known. He is described as having
calm, bewhiskered ox-eyed and nervous
face. His frame is tall and elastic, revealing
the strength and health of an iron constitu-
tion. There is a tendency of his head to

SHOT BY HIS PAL.
WinOna HighwRyman Dies OF His
Wounds.

Special to the Globe.
WINONA, Mimi, Jan. Ii. - This

a serious condition at the Winona gem
eral hospital died few minutes after
having a light hemorrhage from his hip
wound. Cook was one of four high

farmer few miles east of Winona.
BY mistake Cook was shot by a pal.
All the men are now under arrest Dell
Lawton is the man who was supposed
to have done the shooting and against
whom the state is said to have con-
victing evidence. Lawton had a hear
ing Saturday afternoon, and was bound
over under the charge of assault with
intent TO rob. The grand jury is
in session today, but has returned no

that charge of murder or manslaugh-

MR.. POWERS ACTIVE.

Then suddenly Mr.. Powers seemed to
make up his mind to try and get fur
ther consideration of the bill in a new
form. He arose and moved that the
bill be recommitted to the committee
1T is apparent" said he speaking
very calmly, that the house has mani
tested its opposition to the principle Of
this bill, but he continued, I take 1t
every member present wants some ac-
tion taken, and 1 make this motion in
order to see IL the committee cannot
formulate a measure which will meet
the approval of the house."
Mr.. Dockery (dem., Mo- Immediately
made the point Of order that the mo-
tiOn was not in order.
Mr.. Terry Dem., Ark.) said his un-
derstanding of parliamentary law was
that the refusal of the house to en-
gross the bill killed it, and the motion
to reconsider and laying that motion
on the table had put it in it's coffin
and nailed the coffin up.
After some further debate, the de-
cisiOn Of the question as to whether
the Powers motion was in order, went
over until tomorrow to give the speak
er an opportunity to examine prece
dents. The excitement quickly sub
sided. Members retired to the cloak
rooms in droves, and, in a few mill
utes, there were not twenty-five Of
them on the floor.
The house passed several minor bills,
including one to permit officers Of the
regular army, who served in the vol
unteer service, to wear the uniform
of their highest rank on ceremonious
occasions, and then took up the army
appropriation bill.
Mr.. Curtis Rep., N. ", in charge of
the measure, explained that it was the
regular bill and contained no new fea-
lures. 1t carried $23, 1864 a reduc-
ton Of $155,538 from the bill for the
debate and was passed with a few
minor verbal amendments.
Some business on the speakers table
was disposed Of. The senate amend
ments to the bill to abolish the death
penalty in certain cases were concurred
in. Under the call of committees. the
following bills were passed: Senate
bill to require vessels for hire of fif-
teen tons or over propelled by gas,
naphtha or otner fluid to submit to in
spection and comply with the rules of
the road; to amend an act authorizing.

though travelling at a high rate of

hours, and large force of men went
to work on the track, which was bad

THE END OF TIE INDIANA
LYNCHING.

The inquiry into the Versailles,
Ind, lynchiDg has ended like all
similar inquiries in the North. 1t
is the same old story, and could be
told year after year and mouth
after mouth in almost identically
the same language.
The Versailles lynching was
prob bly, as bad mob crime as
ever committed in this country.
There was no charge If outrage
or murder against the five men
who we're strung up tog Their, but
simply that they were q trouble

treated az a capital Offe0se BY the
worst lynching mob in the South.
Moreover, there we're threats that
the Versailles Iynching was largely
the result of feud between rival
gangs, which bad been going on
for some years. Whether this
claim Was true or not there could
be 40 question tina; the affair was
one Of The WORT crimes IN the his
tory OF lynching.
The country held up it's hands in
horror, and the Governor of In H..
ana told US not to be in the least
worried. "You will see how Indi.
ana deals with lynchers," he said.
at will not be like y Southern
lynching."
We have waited. There was q
great furry and hurrsh, and then
the matter qnieted down. And
now the grand jury of Ripley coun.
ty IN which Versailles is situated,
brings in it's report that it has thor.
oughly investigated the matter aud
cannot get the name of even one
man who took part In the lynchlng.
The Governor is playing the bluff
of having the Attorney General
continue the investigation, but we
know what that means. We have
heard the end OF the Vers allies
affair until the friends of the lynch.
ed men rise some night and lynch
the lynchers.
1t is an old comedy which has
been played in New York, Ohio
aud Indiana until it has grown
tiresOme. Perhaps the publicity
OF the Versailles affair will kill the
hypocrisy of our Northern friends

yet common sense, measures to
