Legislature Orders Inquiry Into Vio-
lation of Insurance Law.
Des Moines, Iowa, March 30.-As a
result OF practically unanimous action
by both houses of the Iowa Legislature
today, an investigation of insurance
companies is to be undertaken IN this
state during the present summer, SINH
lar to that which was conducted in New
York last fall. The resolution which
awaits the governors signature pro-
vides for the appointment of commits
sion to inquire into rumored abuse OF
Iowa insurance laws by state and East
ern companies, to conduct an inquisi-
torial investigation whenever in the
commissions opinion it is desirable.
and report to the legislature of next
year what changes should be made in
the laws to prevent recurrence of any
abuses that may exist.

Washington, March 81. - Tillman
and McCumber divided the time of the
eenate today. the North Dakota SEN
ator devoting himself to the railroad
rate question exclusively and the South
Carolina senator discussing various
questions. Tillman made special in
quiry concerning the status of his reso-
luton relative to the use of national
bank funds in politics, and incidentally
spoke of District Attorney Jerome's
recent utterances and of Judge Humph-
rey's decision in the beef trust cases,
declaring in the latter matter that the
decision against the attorney general
had merely reaped what he had sown
i'll the case of ex-Secretary Paul Nor
ton.
Washington, March 27.-The house
today witnessed a most unusual scene,
the speaker rising on the floor in the
midst of spirited discussion on recip-
rocity and tariff revision and disclaim-
ing responsibility for differences be-
tween minority members. 1t was to-
ward the close of the debate on the urg-
ent deficiency bill, which appropriated,
among other things, for the forthcom-
ing conference at Rio de Janeiro. The
bill was passed.

Referendum on Statehood.

Washington, March 30.-That the
senate and house will reach a comprc-
mise agreement on the statehood bill,
which will permit Arizona and New
Mexico each to decide for themselves
the question of their admission as one
state. seems correct solution from
present indications.

IN THE NATIONAL HALLS OF congress

On motion of Tawney, the legislative
and judicial bill was taken up, when
Prince, of Illinois, and Hardwick, of
Georgia, resumed the tactics inaugural
ed last week by raising a point of
order against every paragraph in which
there was a departure from existing
law. A half dozen points of order were
made and sutained affecting the officers
of the subtreasuries at New York,
Philadelphia, New Orleans and St.
Louis.

Washington, March 28.-Knox made
his first set speech in the senate today.
He spoke on the railroad rate question,
and dealt almost exclusively with the
legal features of the problem. When
he concluded the senate entered upon
the consideration of the conference re-
port on the bill regarding the final dis
position of the affairs of the five civil
lied tribes of Indians and much obiec-
ton was expressed to many of the
changes Several senators, including

Tillman, expressed disapproval of the
conference provision authorizing the
secretary OF the interior to lease land.

Thursday, March 90.

Washington, March 29-The senate
today listened to speeches ON the rail-
road rate bill by Clay, Carmack and
Newlands and passed bill which pro-
vides for the reorganization of the med
ical department of the army by author
izing the appointment of officers to
take the place of contract surgeons.
All the senators who spoke on the rate
bill indicated a purpose to support it,
but Clay expressed the hope that it
would be so amended as to afford a
limited court review of the orders of
the Interstate Commerce commission.
Hale criticized tho military medical
bill, saying it showed a tendency to in
crease the army, which was not desir-
able in time of peace.
Culberson presented and had the
clerk read memorial from the Cattle
raisers' association of Texas. urging the
passage of the railroad rate bill as it
came from the house
A bill was passed authorizing the
erection of three life saving stations on
the coast of Washington between Cape
Flattery and Gray"s harbor.
The senate adjourned until Monday.
Washington, March 29.-Today was
busy day for the house, considerable
progress having been made on the ex-
ecutive, legislative and judicial bill.
The committee on appropriations suf-
tered a defeat, the committee Of the
whole, by a vote of So to %, expung-
ing paragraph from the bill which
was alleged to be properly part of the
postoffice appropriation bill. An in
crease OF $10,0 900 over the appropria-
ton carried by the bill was voted for
confidential agents of the Interior de-
partment to aid in ferreting out land
frauds.

Washington, March 90. - Spooner
today concluded his speech in the SEN
ate on the railroad rate bill, and the
Notifications appropriation bill was
taken up and passed. 1t carries an ap-
preparation of 1925, 900 for the erection
of a powder mandatory, and Daniel
spoke at length in support OF the pro-
vision He declared that the nation
was entirely at the mercy of powder
trust, and urged that the amendment
should be adopted as safeguard. As
passed, the bill carries an appropria-
ton of IS, 278, 1893. Tillman also spoke
on the railroad rate bill, suggesting
that the Interstate Commerce commits
sion should have authority to enjoin
the railroads from increasing their
rates. He said the suggestion had been
made by "corn field lawyer" in Ok
lahoma.
The following bids were also passed:
Creating steamboat Inspectors dis
trict in Alaska; providing for filling in
the naval station at Honolulu; author
izing the Chicago, Milwaukee & st.

Washington, March %. - The con-
sideration of the legislative appropria-
ton bill in the house today was enliv-
ened by a small spat between Prince
and Tawney, proposition to buy pri-
vate Ger for the president, which was
ruled out Of order, and jeering speech
by Smith, of Arizona, about the sup
preston of debate by the rules.
An echo of the statehood controversy
yesterday resulted in an effort to cor
rect the journal. Williams maintained
be was put in the ridiculous position
of moving to instruct the conferees
after they had been appointed, mo-
ton clearly out OF order at that time.
The correction was made as suggested.

Washington, March 2S.-The presi-
dent today transmitted to the house the
report of Assistant Secretary of State
Herbert Fl, D. PIERCE, regarding the
consular service in the Orient.
The visit of Mr.. PIERCE included
many cities, but his severe criticism is
reserved for ex-Consul General McWade
at Canton, ana Consul Williams at
Singapore. The charges against Nc
Wade, ex-consul at Canton, are drunk
enness, employment of felon, issu-
ance of fraudulent Chinese certificates,
extending protection to Cinnamon who
claim to be American citizens, persecu-
tion of American citizens for purposes
of revenge, and corruption in office.
The charges against Goodnow are 80
in number, some serious and some
light. Some are sofficient to support
suits at law and give evidence of cor
ruption in office. The opinion of the
better element was unfavrable too him

stocks Of goods. have been forced to pay
head-money as aliens. while their fellow
travellers of Mexican and American birth
have not been required to pay the tax. You
can readily understand the outraged feel
ings of such men and their families in be-
ing made the subjects Of this discrimination
and In being held up at the border the same
as the hordes of foreign immigrants who
flock to the United States from Europe.
''The alien law. as we understand IT., was
directed against undesirable and pauper i'm
migration into the United States and not
against merchants in neighboring coun-
tries who are in the habit of coming over
in the United States to buy goods of our
merchants and manufacturers. Hence.
think such travellers ought to be exempt
from an odious and offensive discrimination.
The two dollars which they are required to
pay is an insignificant matter. but the prin-
ciple involved Is q very important one and
the government Of the United States can
much better afford to lose that two dol
lars than to drive foreign merchant out
Of our market into other countries to pur-
chase, his goods. AS the present working
Of the system Is a positive handicap to the
development of trade between the United
States and Mexico. cannot you do some
thing to help US secure a modification and
the exemption Of all merchants and other
permanent residents Of Mexico Of foreign
birth from this imposition"

Mr. Lincoln's Kind Heart.

Justice Harlan tells very interesting
anecdote Of President Lincoln, which was
related to him by Joshua F. Speed Of Ken
lucky who was the most intimate friend
Mr. Lincoln had during the earlier part of
his residence in Springfield. 1t illustrates
in a striking manner Mr.. Lincoln's tender
ness Of heart and the kindly impulses Of his
nature.
MI. Speed says that the judges of the
court were on the regular circuit early one
winter, and, followed by a group Of the
leading lawyers of central Illinois, were

blowing hurricane; the clouds were

the cavaicade on the outside next to the
fields, saw bird flying about in great dis
tress. He dropped out Of the procession. dis

after them, but was overtaken by the storm
and when he reached shelter was soaked to
the skin His fellow members Of the bar

venture, and reproached him for folly In
exposing himself to the weather. and they
made fan of him because he Was compelled

Trade With Mexico Injured.

The passenger agents Of the various rail-
ways crossing the Mexican border and do
ing business with Mexico have appealed to
the House committee on immigration to
amend the bill which passed the Senate last
summer and Is now pending in the House.
They urge that the head tax imposed upon
foreign merchants coming into the United
States to buy goods be removed. Mr..
George w. Hibbard. general passenger
agent Of the National Lines OF Mexico,
writes to Commissioner Sargent, saying:
1--WE have a large number Of influential
Europeans In business In the different cities
Of the republic with whom we are labor
ing to purchase at least q portion of their
stocks In the United States instead Of CO.
ing to Europe for everything they buy. To
assist them In this work the railways OF
the United States join In giving the mer-
chants Of Mexico the same reduced fares

ferent parts of the United States to the
