FIGHT ON DALLEs CANAL.
House COnIsress Want Matter Delayed Until
New Survey Is Made.

Washington, April 21.-There are
renewed indications that strong fight
will be made in the conference COM
mittee against the amendment to the
river and harbor bill authorizing the
construction of a canal at The Dalles
and Cello, provided the senate accepts
the amendment made by the commit
tee. The house conferees, and in fact
practically the whole house committee,
entertain the belief that this canal can
be built for much less than the esti-
mate of Captain Harts, and they assert
that they do not want to undertake the
work until they know what it is going
to cost. At the same time, there is a
feeling among the friends of the canal
that this excuse is merely superficial; !;
and that the committee in fact does not
want to authorize the construction of a
canal, merely putting forward the new
survey proposition as means OF delay.
There has been some hope that a COM
promise might be brought about where.
by the house conferees would consent
to allowGthe authorization of work on
the canal, and the immediate expendi-
ture of the railway balance now on
hand, cutting off the additional author
ization of $4O0, 900. They say they are
working for principle, and not to save
the amount of money Immediately in
volved. The friends of the proposition
have not given up, but are endeavoring
to show their conferees that the author
ization of the work does not compel the
expenditure of the full amount of Cap.
tain Harts' estimate; that if the work
can be done for less, as they believe, a
less amount will be expended.

Death Roll Doe. Not Shrink.

Cairo, H., April 23.-After search
ing two days the death roll of the
burned steamer City of Pittsburg has
not been reduced any from the first re-
ports. OF the 145 persons who were
on the boat when it burned, a careful
estimate of those who were aboard the
steamer puts the loss of life at 6S at
the lowest, and the opinion of some is
that the list will approximate 100. OF
this appalling death list only three
bodies have been recovered and identi-
fed. All of the injured are being well
cared for, and are recovering. All
who escaped from the burning boat
without their effects have been clothed
and made comfortable, and most Of
them have departed for home.

TO FILE COMPLAINT.
SUPREME COURT GIVES PERMIs-
SION IN MERGER CASE.
The State Of Washington Thus COmpsls the
Northern Securities Company to Answer
Its Charges Of illegal Consolidation =
SubpGnas will be Issued ReIurnabls IN
October.

Washington, April 2S.-The United
States supreme court has granted leave
to the state OF Washington to file an
original bill for an injunction against
the Great Northern Railway Company,
the Northern Pacific Railway Company
and the Northern Securities Company
in connection with the petition Of that
state recently filed in the courts. The
opinion in the case was delivered by
Chief Justice Fuller, who stated that
the court had always exercised the ut
most care in its proceedings in original
cases, and that the present decision to
grant leave to file was intended to be
entirely without prejudice to either
party at interest.
The chief Justices opinion was very
brief, and consisted entirely of view
of original cases of the same character
which have been brought to the atten-
tion OF the court. The two most inn
portant of the cases thus cited were the
case Of the state of Louisiana vs.. the
state of Texas, concerning the auaran-
tine regulation of the latter state, in
which leave was given to file, and the
state Of Minnesota VS.. the Northern
Securities Company, in which the petit
tion to file was denied.
Referring to the latter case, the CHIEF
justice said the petition had been re-
fused because of the insuperable objec'
tion that indispensable parties to the
case could not be brought into the
court, This objection did not, how
ever, confront the court in the present
case, and the court felt that, because o.
its desire to proceed with the utmost
care and deliberation in all cases where
original actions are brought in thii
court, the precedent of the Louisiana
Texas case should be followed rather
than that of the Minnesota case in tn'
present instance. Hence leave to fill
would be granted, and subpoenas would
be issued, returnable on the first day o
the next term of the court in October
