A Kansas Pacific Railroad Res0lu tiOn--A
Listless Debate ON the Bankru ptcy Bill.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 1S.-After spir-
tied debate, occupying more than two
hours, the senate yesterday, by vote
of 81 to 20, agreed to the resolution OF
Mr.. Turpie, Of Indiana, declaring the
senate's opposition to the confirmation
OF the sale Of the Kansas Pacific rail-
road.
Mr.. Thurston pointed out that the
entire debt of the Union Pacific rail-
way, which included the Kansas Pa
cific branch, to the government was
about $7l,OOO,OOO. The sales Of the
main and branch lines would return

cent. Of the roads Indebtedness to the
United States, principal and interest.

lows: Government lien sold here.

have Sanborn approve sale in the
morning." Mr.. Harris said he did not
know what practical effect the passage
Of the pending resolution might have,
but it was evident that the purchasers
were manifesting remarkable haste to
secure the confirmation Of the sale.
The resolution was agreed to and Is
as follows:
