CAPT. GAILLiRD'S SUBSTITUTE.
4 Bill for Condemning Land mt Great
EaIIs for the Mntcr DcpM tment.

Senator Mcmillan has received from Gen.
john NJ Wilson. through the Secretary of
Var. a report on the bill authorizing the
District TO acquire, by purchase or con-
domination, for the water service of the
city the land and water right at the Great
Falls of the Potomac. The report says:
Capt GaiIlard, Corps of Engineers, the
officer in charge of the Washington aque-
duct states that after Il careful study of
the subject he is of the opinion that SO far
as supplying the city of " ashinston with
water is concerned. the United States is
already entitled TO the use of a quantity of
vater several times in excess of the pres
ent daily consumption, but that If IL is de-
sired TO acquire at once all the rights to
the waters at the Great Falls and settle
the existing differences and all danger of
future controversies about titles. the propo-
silion embodied in the bill is worthy of
Favorable consideration.
The principal differences between the
proposed substitute and the original re-
late to the method TO be pursued in con-
excepting from the operation of the bill

CheSa pGake and Ohio Canal Company on
tho Ma yiand side of the river.

bill In its present form is best ada pied to
accomplish the purpose in view. ard be

which he recommends for adoption In

SUGAR TRUST INVESTIGATION.
Representative Simpson PROPOSES
SDeciRl Committee af Eixe

Representative Simpson Proposes n
Special Committee of Five.
Representative Simpson of Kansas today
introduced In the House resolution direct
ing the Speaker to appoint a committee of
five to investigate the sugar trust.
The resolution is preceded by two where
asses, the first of which declares that it is
currently asserted" that the American Su-
gar Refining Company has in violation of
law created Gigantic monopoly" and the
second that said corporation, ''by the use of
watered stock, by unfair competition and
by Illegal combination, has crushed out le-
climate competition to an extent which
gives it the power to depress the price of
the raw material and to advance the price
of the manufactured article at will, thus
throttling the cane and beet agricultural
lists with one hand and grasping the purses
of the consumers with the other"
The committee authorized by the resolu-
ton is empowered to send for persons and
papers, and is to investigate the methods
Of the company, its effects upon agriculture
and commerce, las we'll as the enhanced
cost of one of the necessaries of life," and
the committee is directed to report their
findings, and, If the facts warrant it, bill
instituting proceedings by the Attorney
General in quo warranto to annul the cor
porate existence of the trust.

London bought ST. Paul and Atchison, and

Nances elsewhere. This foreign demand
would have developed strong local move
ment had not the action of Sugar been in

Washington adyioes relative to the un-
expected holding out of the House confer
ees had a tendency to weaken confidence
in the wisdom of continued advance in this
property. Some realizing was consequently
in progress during the opening period, the
stock declining per cent from the closing

The stock marketed during this period

morning. the price being restored the mo-

OF the days transactions were made be-

original movement.
As has been the case heretofore little or
no assurance justifying the advance has
come out from Washii. gtoa unless through

The natural conclusion is that even the
House rates are sufficient TO maintain

NO PROSPECT OF AGREEMENT.


The conferees on the tariff bill found
themselves today apparently further apart
than they were at the beginning of the
conference There was no immediate
prospect of agreement, and more than one
member stated that the ENHANCEMENT was
such that the settlement might be indef-
nitely prolonged. They state in a very re-
served manner that there are numerous
que stions of difference. but refuse to go
into details. even to ether senators and
members From all that can be learned
however, there has been d general recess
sion from the partial agreements made
on the more important articles until
sugar, wool. hides, &c. can be definitely
fixed. Sugar is still the principal conten-
ton. The best reports represent the House
conferees. with Speaker Reed behind them,
as holding out for the House sugar sched-
ule, without any change whatever, and
the senators are quite as determined not
to yield To this extent. The House con-
ferees insist that this schedule must be
definitely fixed before other questions shall
be again taken up.
one OF the other questions of secondary
Importance upon which sharp differences
have arisen is the Senate amendment for
i stamp tax on stocks and bonds. The
House opposes the amendment, but the
senators, while not welded to ii, insist
upon it as necessary for revenue. The
House is also resisting strenuously the ~
per cent duty placed upon hides and Is
at the same time persstently holding cut
for u restoration of gunny bags, cotton
ties. etc, to the dutiable list.
a senator who talked with some Of the
confcrees said: They are in temporary
deadlock, and tied up all along the
line. 1t looks if the situation might
remain unchanged for week.
While this appears to be "a correct out
line of the situation today. the prevailing
impression is that a settlement of one or
two important schedules would De speed
lily followed by complete adjustment
of all other differences.
The Senate conferees are disposed to re-
sent The efforts of Speaker Reed to in
tuence the action of the conferees. They
accept as true the report that the Speaker
has announced that the House sugar sched
ule must prevail, and 1t appears to be I'M
derstood that he has announced the posi-
ton to the representatives of the House in
the conference. The senators are inclined
to construe the Speakers participation in
the. proceedings as uEwarTanted, and are
apparently more determined than before
his attitude was made known to hold out
for the Senate figures.
