NeqUs and Notes From

(From Our Regular Corre,p,a1en. )
Washington, D, c, Feb. II, o5
Since | last wrote. your readers
have doubtless heard OF the passage
OF the railroad rate bill by the low
er house Of congress.
The vote Of the bill was almost TN
animOus. but seventeen members,
eleven OF whom were republicans and
six democrats, voting against it. 1t
IS rare indeed that a bill of such
sweeping importance has been passed
by such an overwhelming majority
and it is thought by many here to be
prognostiC of very important legisla-
ton relating to trusts and cOmbina-
tons If ii is proper for the United
States government to interfere with
a combination OF railroads. why may
it not be equally proper to take IN

as the SIX express companies through
which the people Of the United States
are Outrageousiy taxed and to which
the government itself pays hundreds

for the passage Of a wholesome and
trust repressive law than the present
congress has been.
In political and diplomatic circles
here there is seen III the late San Do
minican episode. a tendency to widen
che scope OF the Monroe doctrine and
to insure the incapable so called re
publics Of the hemisphere, domestic
peace as we'll as immunity from Eu-
ropean aggression. There are South
American republics that like San Do
