Weakness Of French saIlors.

Bitter complaint is made by a
French naval journal because the mod
ern training of French naval officers
and seamen does not sufficiently
habituate them to the sea- On the
voyage of the Jaureguiberry from Tou-
lon to Brest that battleshop had to
face storm in the Bay of Biscay,
which prostrated no fewer than 200
seamen and a large number officers.
In the Russian feet at the battle OF
Japan sea there was a similar state
OF affairs. 1t is urged that there be
more cruising at sea in all weathers
and a period of some years service In
torpedo craft for officers. with the OBJ
tect OF giving the personnel of the
French navy its sea legs.

NATIONAL BANKS
Senate Lays over Resolution InquIr-
ing Whether They Have Con-
trlbuted to Campaign Funds.

tiIpuhcu 70 SaUiFdl9U ruUuS'
Washington, April 16-The senate
today sent over without action res~
olution calling for an inquiry into
whether national banks have been
guilty of contributing to campaign
committees; heard a favorable railway
rate bill speech by Mr.. Hepburn Uda-
ho) and partly finished consideration
of the Indian appropriation bill.
The author of the national bank in
qulry resolution, Mr. Tillman Is. C.)
will press his resolution, which, in ad-
dition to inquiring into campaign
contributions, wants decision as to
whether the amounts given have not
been illegal distractions, which call
for restitution and criminal prosecu-
tion; whether Chicago banks have
been engaged in transactions beyond
their lawful powers, in connection with
the Walsh failure; and whether Ohio
national banks have been secretly pay
ing county treasurers for the deposit
of public funds, are also to be inves-
tigated by the senate committee on
finance, If the resolution is passed.
The advisability of prosecutions and
amending the national banking laws
are asked to be decided upon.
When the rate regulation bill was
taken up, Mr.. Hepburn advocated the
adoption of his amendment. prov l.
ing in effect that the circuit courts re-
view the finding of the decision of the
interstate commerce commissions s
hearing, and that If the rate is found
to be unjust or unreasonable, permit
ting it to fix the proper rate.
The senator would permit the rate
of the commission to be set aside only
after the filing of bond in such an
amount as to cover the expenses of
the action before the commission and
the courts the amount of money IN
volved, and reasonable attorney fees.

COALITION
Of the Republican and
Democratic Railroad
Rate Senators is Under
Way at Presidents Ad-
vice.
vice.

Washington, d. G.. April ia
coalition of the Republican and Demo-
feratic railroad rate senators is under
way. The president is interested in
bringing them together. 1t is an
nounced by those close to the execu-
tive that he has almost abandoned any
idea of the so-called conservatives,
Aldrich- h-Crane-Knox, and others accept
ing anything but the broadest court
review This he will not listen to.
If the president advises the rate ad-
vocates will unite upon the amend
ments of Mr., Long, of Kansas, and
Bailey, of Texas.
Senator Carter, of Montana, will un-
dertake the work of organizing a
coalition which can muster the neces-
sary votes, As, to make the prospec-
tive compact operative. He Will con-
suit with administration Republicans
and bring them into the presidents
camp.
The Bailey amendment provides for
prohibiting circuit courts from grant
ing temporary restraining orders
commerce commission. The Long
amendment provides for the most linn
tied court review, appeals being con-
fined entirely to constitutional Ques-
tions. The Knox addition, which the
conservatives have been urging, pro-
vides for appeals under the laws OF
the United States. and gives ship
pers the same right of appeal as COM
mon carriers.
PRESIDENT ADVISES.
The president wants the Bailey
amendment so inserted in the bill that
its constitutionality can be determined
by the supreme court of the United
States without invalidating other
measures of the act
In attempting to carry out the coal
ition. the Democratic senators will
nesday. 1t will not be caucus and
not binding. 1t will be for the pur-
pose of seeking to adopt the Bailey
amendment as a minority proposition.
Senator Bailey believes thirty-one
Democrats will vote for it with the
exception of Messrs. Culberson and Ba-
con. He is satisfied that Mr. Morgan,
who now opposes the amendment will
vote for it when the time comes Four
Republican senators are said to have
been converted by Mr. Bailey's recent
speech. The administration leaders
claim to have 20 votes among the Re-
publicans for the Long amendment
1t will be necessary to obtain IA of
these administration supporters to
vote for the Bailey amendment, in
to the 81 Democrats to make
the new coalition effective.

One Day Of Shearine

An argument arose lately in Delta
over the number Of sheep that any one
man could shear in one day and s. A.
Boyce, a local real estate man, assert
ed that in May, 1894, man in Baggs.
Wyoming, by name of Frank Mourland,
sheered 356 sheep in one day Of ten
hours. His story was disbelieved by
all who heard, each one being under the
impression that Mr.. Boyce was in error.
However at the instance of parties now
residing in Baggs, an affidavit has
been prepared and is now in the pos-
session of the Independent, which clear
ly states the above to be fact. Mr..
Mourland is the champion blade shearer
today, no one having yet been able to
beat him. This article is published by
request of Mr.. Boyce, who wished to
prove his assertion as being a correct
one. At any rate Mr.. Mourland can
certainly lay claim to being one of the
swiftest men on earth in his line Of
business.

TRADE ACTIVE.
Local Demand Good But Prices

DENVER UNION Stock YARDS, Nav
2s.-The trade was very good on IL is
market last week although all other
markets were reported dull and quoted
Is to 25 cents lower. Receipts at all
eastern markets were heavy and it was
a case Of too many for the demand.
Receipts here were also liberal but a
good many were southerns and offerings
were just about normal. Packers were
good buyers but they prefer the light
weight steers and these sold to best ad-
vantage. Prices however, are about a
dime lower for the week on account of
the declines east. Best steers sold at
s4.75 with others at s4.65 and prices
ranging from this down to 81. 80 on most
of the better killing grades. Cows were
also in good demand but market weak
on account of the general decline. Best
cows sold up to $4.OO but few of this
kind here and bulk of the business was
done at S3.15 to $3.s5. Common cows
sold from $l.75 to $2.85. Bulls and
veals in strong demand and market act
i've at firm prices. Best bulls sold up to
SO so and veals largely at IS. 90 to Sc. 90.
The demand for feeders and stockers
was good but few offered in the native
division. Prices rule about steady al
though the tone of the market was
weak on account of big declines reported
east. The eastern demand for feeders
and stockers was very light last week
and dealers carried over large number.
Over A, 900 cattle were in the pens this
morning but bulk of them southerns
destined for the northern pastures.
Market on natives was active at firm
prices.
The trade in southern stockers was
very good last week, several sales being
reported here. Dealers look for a very
good trade this week also as the demand
is very good and several train loads of
good ones will be on sale.
