PACIFIC RAILWAY AFFAIRS.
Senate with Morgan's Help Finds Some
thing to Talk About.

Senate with Morgan's Help Finds Some
thing to Talk About.
Washington, July ia discussion Of
Union Pacific railroad affairs occupied
the attention Of the senate yesterday.
The deficiency appropriation bill was TAX
en- upearly in the day and Morgan pro-
posed an amendment designed to pre-
vent the c6nsummation Of an agree
ment made some time since for the set
Element OF the governments claims
against the road. Morgan spoke
throughout the day, severely arraignfng
the Pacific railroad managers. Later
the entire subject was disposed Of by the
withdrawal Of the paragraph to which
Morgan had offered his amendment The
deficiency appropriation bill was not
completed up to the time of adjourn
ment.
Morgan's amendment was that no part
Of the sinking fund Of the Union Pacific
Railroad company held in the treasury
Of the United States shall be used in
pursuance Of any agreement between
the president Of the United States or
any officer Of the United States and
organization committee Of the Union
Pacific Railroad company, or any other
company or corporation Morgan spoke
at length in support Of the amendment,
saying that the pending agreement be-
tween the executive branch Of the gov
eminent and the Union Pacific reorgan-
izatfon committee was fragrant disre-
gard Of law, amounting to robbery,
which when fully understood would
cause amazement among the American
people. At one stage Of his remarks
Morgan referred to the house not being
in session today. and was reminded by
Gear that the house would be in session
today.
II am delighted to hear that congress
will not be running on one wheel" pro-
ceeded Morgan, and invite the at
tention Of the house to the fact that by
adopting this amendment it can save
$50, 000.000 to the government which 9TH
erwise the government will be robbed Of.
These are strong words, but / use them
knowing what they mean. Let congress
adjourn without taking hold of this
transaction and the United States gov
eminent will lose $50, 000. 900 and the peo-
pie viii lose God knows how much in the
future" Morgan severely criticised the
pie will lose God konws how much in the
tion committee.
Morgan made an extended legal argu-
ment to show that the Union Pacific
railroad property could not be sold with
out the consent Of congress. Thurston
took exception to Morgan's claim that
the governments lien was not confined
to the aided portion Of the road. but en-
braced all its property whether aided or
not. Thurston commended that the Unit
ed States supreme court had held the
lien Of the government to extend only
to the mileage aided by the issue Of sub
sidy honda Morgan spoke for over three
hours Thurston briefly controverted
the points OF Aorgan's argument. saying
the pending proposition was designed to
prevent the taking Of the Union Pacific
question out Of politics Of the west. and

Washington. July 13-The tariff con-
ference committee Is meeting with its
greatest difficulty in reaching an un-
Outstanding on the wool and sugar
schedules. On sugar Aldrich and Jones
of Nevada are holding out especially for
the senate schedule. and are supported
by the entire senate representation.
The house is just as firm in its demand
for the house rates. The Indications
when the conference adjourned last
night were that a compromise would be
necessary which would split the diff
ference between the two houses on the
differential on refined sugar, and it was
stated upon party authority that an
agreement to this effect had been
rachel. The house conferrees are
standing stiffiy for the house schedule
on wool. contending that the senate
rates would be most oppressive upon
manufacturers. There is a proposition
to compromise the differences by re-
tanning the senate classification, but al
lowing a drawback on all woods which
it can be proven are used in carpet
making.
Likely To BE Trouble Over These.
There was quite q movement on the
Democratic side of the senate yester-
day to insure a firm stand for free bur-
laps, cotton bagging, floor mating, cot
ton ties, ETC., placed on the free list in
the senate, and to hold white pine at 81
per 1000 feet. This was because of the
report, which was authenticated, that
the committee had tentatively agreed
to restore the 81 rate on white pine and
to restore the other articles mentioned
to the dutiable list. These changes were
made in the senate by majorities rang
ing from 1 to 5 votes, and the sup
porters Of the senate action expressed
the opinion that they would be able to
hold all the votes for a motion to reject
the conference report that We're original
ly cast for the amendments. To do this
they would have to make sure not only
of McEnery's vote but of some Repub-
ican votes, as Carter and Hansbrough.
The problem bids fair to develop an in
IL
committee on conference adheres to its
present determination with rgard to
these articles.
Agree ON No Important Matter.
In fact. as things are now. it appears
that the conferrees are away apart on
all matters of Importance. The minor
matters were easily adjusted, but on all
important features there has been no
agreement, and the outlook is that sew
eral reports will have to be made before
an adjustment can be reached. The
house conferrees are standing solidly by
their bill, and the senate cOnferrees are
no less tenacious. The senate conferrees
have laid before the house members the
condition in the senate, where there is
no actual majority of the Republicans
and where other than Republican votes
are necessary to pass the bill or adopt
conference report. The more i'm
portant features Of the bill are not
settled, and can hardly be said to be
in the way of settlement at this time.
