toward facilitating the passage Of the ad-
minlstration railway bill. An agreement
was reached TO begin on the pending
long and short haul amendments at
4 o'clock this afternoon and continue
their consideration and finally dispose Of
them before the close Of the legislative
day
Such an order may carry the voting
over into tomorrow. but. II is believed,
insUres the disposition Of the subject mat
ter before Saturday night.
Before the adjournment yesterday, the
Senate voted to have daily meetings. at II
o'clock. an hour earlier than the usual
meeting time. Senator La Follette's was
| the only negative vote. Senator Elkins
tried 70 get an agreement on date for
the final vote on the bill. Democratic
Senators were ready to negotiate, but the
Republican insurgents were very much
opposed.
A Gentlemen's Agreement.
Senator Cummins. Of Iowa, reminded
Mr.. Elldns Of "gentlemens agreement
among Senators 90 consider and dispose
of all Of the amendments proposed by
the majority Of the Senate Committee on
Interstate Commerce and then 20 take
lup in their turn amendments offered by
the minority OF the committee, 20 be
followed BY the disposition OF amend
,mertc offered by individual Senator's.
Mr.. Cummins declared that he would
object 70 any request for unanimous con-
sent to IA time for the final vote until
latter the "gentlemen's agreement" had
been carried out.
The most conservative estimates FIX
the date Of the vote on the bill about
June !, certainly not earlier. In the
course Of tire discussion over closing the
, debate Senator Aldrich pleaded with his
colleagues to make haste with the bill.
I'VE owe it 10 the country and TO the
Senate TO expedite the bill" said Mr.
Aldrich. He added that nearly every
, feature Of the pending measure had beer

pipeline not under bill of sale to the
Daisy.
Early in 1909, the Hydraulic com.
pany was declared a bankrupt, and
Frederick +. Browne of Goldfeld was
appointed trustee in bankruptcy. The
Daisy failed to make payments on its
option on the water, when the Hy
draulic company had paid 1900 on its
rent, and the water reverted back to
the original owners, leaving the Hy
draulic without any.
At the meeting of creditors of the
Hydraulic company, the referee in
bankruptcy disallowed the bill Of the
Daisy. In the suit before Judge
Averill, the bank claimed a mortgage
on the whole pipeline, which it sought
to fo~reclose; the Daisy company claim.
ed the whole pipeline under its bill Of
sale; but admitted the validity of the
mortgage; Mr.. Browne claimed that
the Daisy had no rights in the pipe
line, and that the banks mortgage only
covered that part which was west Of
the east line of the Round Mountain
%company's property.
The judge sustained the position Of
Mr.. Browne, as trustee in bankruptcy,
and decides that the Daisy company
has no rights whatever; that the banks
mortgage covers only that part of the
line which is west of the east line Of
the Round Mountain company's prop
erty, and that the title TO the main
pipeline is in Mr.. Browne as trustee
for the general creditors.
Dunlap was represented by MclntsA

Withers, and the Daisy company, BY

Judge Averill of Tonopah has just
handed down a decision in the case OF
r. P. Dunlap, receiver of the Round
Mountain Banking Corporation VS..
Frederick E. Browne, trustee in bank
ruptcy of the Round Mountain Mining
company and the Round Mountain
Daisy Mining company, which settles
the ownership of the big 16-ineh pipe
line at Round Mountain. This pipe
line extends from its intake on Jeffer-
son creek to the "Dry Wash Wilson
placer ground on the property OF the
Round Mountain Mining company, a
distance of about four miles, with a
lateral branch connection with Sho'
shone creek. After crossing the east
line of the Round Mountain company's
ground, it is split up into several
branches, which supplied water to the
Sphinx, Round Mountain, and for op.
Grating the placer workings.
Early in 1907, the Daisy company OBJ
tanned an option on the waters of JEFF
ferson and Shoshone creek for $25, 600.
and at once it leased a portion of this
water to the Hydraulic company fol
three years for $4,000, and the Hy
draulic company agreed to build the
pipeline; and it was provided that at
the end of the three years, the title
to the pineline should pass to the
Daisy company, and that the lease
should have the effect of a bill of sale
passing the title at that time to al
the pipeline east of the property of the
Round Mountain company.
The Hydraulic company borrowed
large sums of money and became heav
