The Kentucky Case.

Frankfort, Ky, January 15.-The cleo
ton contest board met to-day. Gov
ernor Taylors attorneys filed protest
against the board sitting in the case.
The protest is based on the ground of
charges filed by Taylor several days
ago, alleging that several members were
disqualified from serving, and which
We're overruled without investigation;
that the charges, if investigated, would
relieve these members from serving, and
the committee would then be without a
quorum. The exceptions were also filed
as to many important parts of Goebel's
and Beckham's notices Of contest.

INTERSTATE COMMERCE COMMISSION.
Amendments to Law Suggested Decrease
in Casualties to EMPLOYEES.

Washington. Jan. l5.--The interstate
commerce commission today made pub
lie Its 18th annual report. A feature OF
the report is a strong plea that congress
uphold the hands of the commission by
amendments making the interstate com
merce law more effective. The bill en-
bracing the more reimportant amendments
is recommended by the commission, is
the one Senator Cullom introduced in
congress and the report significantly
asks whether continued failure to per-
feet the regulating status OIL reasonable
lines will not soon result in demand
for the most drastic legislation.
During the year 1899 there were 1919
employees killed and 1899 injured upon
80 roads, against 200 killed and 54s4 in
jured in 1898. result attributed to a

DENIES THE ALLEGATION.
The Present Engle Night Operator Not a
News Fakir.
To the Editor New Mexican:


Engle, n. NJ. Jan. 15.--The article
published recently In the New Mexican
and copied by the San Marclal Bee and
other papers, regarding the night opera
tor at Engle, should be corrected to
some extent.
The father of the kidnapping story and
other newspaper articles, including the
recent report of the killing of Deputy
Sheriff Rainbolt, is not the present in
cumbent of that position, and has not
been for the past three months.
"The night operator at Engle, is
transferable title and might be applied
to several persons in the next few years.
Mistaken identity is unpleasant In some
cases. The brightest light is dim in a
fog. | find it unpleasant laboring under
a questionable reputation not my own.
Respectfully, }. B. GRAYBEAL.

CONGRESSIONAL.
THE HOUSE.

Washing lOIl, january l0.-ln the
house to-day Mr. Cannon of Illinois
from the committee on appropriations
reported the urgency deficiency bill
and gave notice that he would call ii
up for consideration tomorrow.
On motion of Mr.. Clark of New
Hampshire a resolution was adopted
calling upon the secretary of state for
information relative to the status of the
agreement between Great Britain and
the United States, which prevented the
United States building, arming OF
mainIta ining more than one war vessel
upon the great lakes.
Mr.. Babcock, chairman of the COM
mittee ON the District of Columbia
claimed a day for the consideration of
District of Columbia business.
THE SENATE.
AT the conclusion of routine business
a resolution by Mr.. Pettigrew, calling
on the secretary of war for certain in
formation regarding the Philippine in
surrection, was laid before the senate.
Mr.. Pettigrew declined Mr.. Hoar's re-
quest to substitute resolution present
ed by the latter.
Mr.. Berry of Arkansas had read the
resolution offered by Mr.. Bacon of
Georgia; also that by Mr.. Beveridge Of
Indiana,
Those who desired to discuss the Phil
ippine question, he said, were met by
the objection that they were aiding
those in arms against the United States
and were responsible for the loss of life
among our soldiers. He regarded this
as absolutely unwarranted and de-
clared no man who was a man would
be deferred from speaking by charges
that We're absolutely unfounded by
facts Mr.. Berry believed the two reso-
lutions read from the desk fairly rep
resented the views of the two great
parties Of this country. He was certain
the resolution Of Mr.. Beveridge reflect
ed the sentiment and feelings of the
administration, because it had been ia
vorably commented upon by adminis-
tratons speakers and newspapers
throughout the country. The resolution
had been indorsed, he said, by the ad-
ministration leaders, yet it conferred
authority and power upon this country
as absolutely as is possessed by the
czar of Russia.
Senator Pettigrew followed Mr.. Berry
and criticised the Philippine policy of
the administration
At o'clock the financial bill was tenn
porarily laid aside in order to allow
Mr. Pettigrew to finish his speech, and
afford Mr.. Wolcott of Colorado an op-
portunity to submit some remarks on
the resolutions.
Mr.. Wolcott said the speech of Mr..
Pettigrew was Incorporate, and Mr..
Pettigrew was fitted to speak for an ill
tempered people who never had a good
word to say for anything or anybody.
Mr.. Wolcott said he did not believe ex-
pressions of sympathy for the Philip
pines had any effect. If Aguinaldo knew
anything that was going on he knew
the speeches made here carried little
weight. If Aguinaldo was in Mr.. Petit
crews place representing South Dakota
he would not be traducing the presi-
dent and officers of the American army
fighting in the Philippines. Mr.. VOL
colt also took Issue with Mr.. Beveridge
upon what he said regarding the hand
Of the Almighty in making the Anglo
Saxon and Teutonic peoples the guar
dians Of the heathen and savage races
of the world
