LARE-FNONT BILL. 5 SenmvorrzLp, March 28.—Tho House Linke- Front bill camo up on its first ronding, when Mr. Palmer, of Iroquolos—ono.of Mr. Fort's Sona- tors—moved to refor it to-the Judiciary Commit- too, whoro its oppononts havo long boon trying togotit. Mr. Reynolda arguod that tho opin- ion of lawyors on the Judiclary had botter bo givon on the floor of tho Bonata. Mr. Btocle, who made the original motion last woek to refer tho Bonato bill to tho Judiciary, was in.favor of tho reference. + He was not inspired by hontility to tho ropeal as ho hnd beon aceused, but it should go'to tho Judlolary to sc if tho Logisla- turo roally had tho powor to undo what the Log- fslaturo of 1869 had dome. Ho was satisfled tho act was carried through that body by fraud sud corription, but for sll that ‘thoy might pot be ‘able to repesl it, The bill shonld go the Judiciary. It involved mill- iona ; it was of importance to tho entire poopla of the Btate, It rights had boon vosted under the nct tho Judiciary Committeo should con- sidor whothor these rights could bo divested. Thot was the quostion. It was not true ho was .actively in tho intorest of railronds. Ho had novor boon & railrond sttornoy, and novor ex~ pected to bo, though it was charged he was to ot au attornoyship for lus sorvices on bobialf of flmh bill, No corrupting influouces had beon brought to bear upon him. e was aoting un- dorlfia interprotation of the oath ho tool ropresent tho peoplo of Illinois. Tho bill - ehould go the Judiciary. Tho Lake Front bill f 14 was & wicked thing that should bo blotted out if it conld be without duiu& Irrparable injury or glvu!lllng righta that had bocome vosted “un- or It. - Mr. Whiting believed tho act_shonld bo wiped off tho statute books a8 a robulko to tho corrup- tion by which it was passed. Ho know tho Leg- Islaturoe in 1869 was fillod with tho clito of the bar of tho Stato, all in favor of the Lill. The pross of tho Stato was muzzlod, and it was run through the Logislaturo with monoy. MMr. Loo raiscd tho point thint tlio gontleman was not talling o the point. Mr. Whiting was opposed to the reference to tho Judiclary, - AIr. Casoy nsked if it would be disreputablo to rofor to tho Judiciary Committee. Mr, Whiting did not wish to cast reflections on tho Judiclary, but it would bo disroputable to tho Bonato to hositato in passing tho bill. Thera sroro railrond attornoys of gront adroitnoss, and who always carried thelr point, working to do- foat tho ropoal, 4 M. Btoolo wished to know if Lo reforred to any attornoy in the Sonato, Mr, Whiting replied that he did not, especi- ally did not to the gontloman from Colea (Btoelo). Lot them repeal the vested rights it Aoy ogotirred. The courts would tako caro of all vested rights. Thoy noed not bo afraid of that. Corporations wero woll ablo to take caro of thom- Bolvos, and the courts worg mercital onough to ‘voste righta. Judge Drummond had decided that tho raflroads had no vested rights under tho act, why hositate to Topeniit 7 Iniquity presidad ‘ovor tho concop- tion of the schome, frand was prosont at ifs birth, and honesty would rojoico at ita death, This 'was worso than Crodit Mobilier, salary stoal, and all tho iniquitica porpetrated by Cotie 088, 811“\'. McGrath had confidenco in the Judiciary Committas, and in the gentleman who mado tho motion to rofor, but o~ could not @oe that any complax lagal question was involved. Ho could prove that no rights had been_ acquired under the not, and fhat tho railronds had not compliad wilh single requiroment of the Iaw, Mr. Canoy rogarded it 86 o puro question of Tnw. It was not tho duty of tho Scnate to pnss tho bill anyhow, and leave ita construction to tho court.” It nstonished himto hear the gea- tloman from Bureau (\hiting) say corruption carrled tho bill, and .sob tho gontloman had not at tho time donounced bribery and corruption ; $hat bribory was a proper subject for invostiga: tion : tho, 'whydid ot that Senator then pro- poso invostigation ? Ho hud no intorost in the quoation, which was purely logal ono. Why Boek to avoid o decision by tho Judiciary, The lntimation that the Committee wonld dolay and Lill tho bill was fn_ insiuuation against the Com- mitteo and an injustico to its mombors., Whon entlemon rofused to rofor, they admitted tho in- justice of tho causo thoy cspoused. It was not & quostion of bribery, but_whothor rights had vostod undor tho act. Nolawyor would en yosted rights could bo divested. Whero con) tho legal” problom bo eolved o woll as in tho Judiciary Committeo? IIo hnd heard the bill callod o stonl. Porhapa it was, That was not o quostion now. Tho question was, had logal and vested rights ncerued under tho sot? Who snid tho Committoo would kill the bill? Whoovor eaid a0 maligned tho Committeo, Mr, Palmer desired to oxplain wll{u]:o mado the motion, as ho did not wisl to be placed in & false position. Ho mado tho motion to rofer tho bill, not at the solicitation of any Sonator or out- pidor, but that tho bill might take the usual oourso of bills. Ho would amond his motion to compol tho Committeo to report the bill by Tues- day morning, Ir. Leo did not think they could report so soon, as thoy would not mcot. * Y. Waito would not agrao to any auch propo- sition, a6 no committos should Do, hnrdedr,‘fil considoring o question, [Cries of * Right."] Mr. Palmer wont on to eny it camo with poor grace {rom a man to introduce a bil to ropoal an act he bud voted for Lwice, ono time ovor tho Governor's veto, Ho.wished it known that ho would voto for ropesl anyhow. Alr. Hompton #aid o bill precisoly like tho ono undor consideration had beon bofore the Benato six woeks, and had been passed upon by an ablo commltteo aiready. Where would the logal quos- tions have to Do finally nottled \)ug in the Sonnto? and ho wonld liko tho logal men to give thoir legal views in opon Benato, They all wanted to hoar theso logal viows, It wasno now quostion, and ho did not see the use or pro- prioty of & roforonce, Mr, Youngblood rogretted to sce that it was nocossnry for & Honntor, in advacating soference ©f tho bill, to deny that he was employed by & railroad, Why tho opposition to reforonce? Woro Senators dotermined to pass tho bill, whothor or not? Ho wa# sorry to hoar that tho roprosontativos of the pooplo in 1860 sold thoir birthrlght for a mess of Hotllfiu, but suppaso thoy did, sbould tho Btato of 1lingia plond the baby nct and ropoeal the law ? Tho Luiuslntum conld not logally and rightfully ropenl tho nct. If thoy shut tholr eyes and ro- ealod tho bill thoy would disgraca the Btate orover. Why woro the frionds of repoal afraid of tho opinion of the Judicinry Committeo 7 Wero they afraid the Committee” would roport sgainst1t? Ho wauno roilrond attornoy, and nevor ax‘uum] to bo, Ho wau in the intorest of tho paople of tho Btate of Tilinols, who would ro- ceive no bauoflt from tho ropenl,’ It was simply ».fight botweon railroad coranunnu, which had spont millions undor tho bill, and o piivate come- pany whicn doslred to got tho proporty, Mr. Loo did not seo why tho bill should not " ho roforrod to the Judiciary for an opinion as to ity constitutionnlity. Whatwas tho Committea for, If not to invostigato such matters ? Tha ontloman from Bureau i\\’hlllng), whon ho said o did not caro what vested righs’ had ncoruod, showed himuoll unlit for his plnco iu that Benate, Whon the Bonator from Durenu said that nttor- noys in that Senato woro bribod, ho said what he Raiow to ba wilfally falge. 3r. Tioynolds suid tho gentloman was on tho dofonsiva bofore uny chiarge was mada, Mr. Niclolson wes sorry emch Imputations wwwero aflont against Sonators, 1Ie votod againet tho swindla i 1869, and would do Ko agnin, Mr, Crows snid throo of tho Comumitton had publicly projitdged tho caro, nnd that should be sufliclont roaron for rofuslig to commit. The motion to commit was loat—22 to 10—and the bill orderod to a socond reading.

STILL A MYSTERY. The Mannor of Wonnding Young Anderson St Unkunown, | vatous Thoorlos Advanced--What the Detectives Think-~-Condition of the Boy. Thare {8 nothing partioularly now or interest~ ing to roport about tho Adsme-streot mystory. Young Andorgon, the victim, has moither ime proved nor grown worso, Though not altogothor unconsclous, ho fa etlll almost spoochloss, the sliockto the Lrain having caused partial paralysis of tho tongue. Tho manner of his wounding is still ‘unknown. Tho polico have advancod s thoory, and atoutly maintaiu it, Thoyclaim that ho was kicked in tho'hesd by o viclous horee whilo standing noar tho barn-door ; that tho forco ot tho kick sent him rooling toward tho centro of tho barn; that ho foll in front of tho ompty atall, outting tho right sido of his faco; sud that strongth snd consolousness onough romained to ounnble him to crawl into the empty stall, and strotch on tho hay which covorod the floor, Tho nuthorities do nob ac- count 8o easlly for tho fact that tho barn door was fagtoned on tho outside whilo Anderson lny wounded within. On this point they speculato a8 follows : Whon Andorson was hurt tho barn door was opon, If it hnd not haon tbo placo would bo g0 dark thnt ho could not dosuything. A boy onterod tho barn boforo the onoe who dis- covered Andoraon. Tho latter, boing atrotohed at the bottom of a dark stall, was not observed by bim, and whon ho wont out Lo fastoned tho door behind him. The grocer's boy camo along ton or fifteon minutoa aftorward with his horse, and‘as Andorson was Iying in tho stall occupicd by tho animal, hio was of necossity found, . This i all very ol 8o far as it gooe, but it dooan't o quite far enough. Tho boy who first ontored tho barn says he found the door festened, and did not notico' snything un- ususl in the intorior. It was about ton minutes past 12 when ho was in the barn. Fiftoen or twenty minutes attorward tho grocor's boy wont tbo barn, Aftor opening tho door, hig atten~ tion was immodiately attracted by aman's hat and a pail which stood jn the middio of the floor. Tho firat boy is positiva that thoy woro nat thoro whon ho was in the barn, and ho ia aqually positive that ho .found the door fostenod, Tho accidont or assault, whiche ever it i, ‘must have. ocourred after tho firat boy loft the barn and beforo tho grocer's lad entored it. Tho timo way ahort it ia true, Lut it hasnot boen satisfactorily accounted for. If what the boya say s truo, the polico theory is entirely upset, and tho caso ia as much n mystory 28 if it had not been investigated. It is not at all likoly that tho unfortunate young man was kickod by o horse. Tho dootors who haye beon ationding him oro unanimously of tha apin- fon that the wounds in the hond wero not cousod by o horse-shos, but - they are unable to say what oort of an instrument did couso them. There i only ono hores in the barn that was ever known to kick, and ho will not do 1t unless when teased. This animel woe not in ‘Anderaon's oharge, and from what Is known of the young man's disposition, he would not bo opt to {ntorfore with a mattor which did not con~ corn him. 'His own atatomont that Lo was stabbed, whon taken in connection with other cironmstancos pointed oub above, ought to bo guflicient "proof that ho was not kicked. Ho was uot raving when he mado that statomont. It has boen ascortained that Andor- son had somo words with one or two of the stable-boys last Sundey, about the removal of ‘manuro, thoy exclaiming tht Lo did not throw it far enough from the bam, or.somothing to that offact, It is also said that ho caused tho gloctmont of an who was slooping In tho barn on Bunday. It is also_said that the driver of & conl wagon obsorvod two mon hanging obout the barn on Thursday about wnoon, one . of whom carried o spade oyer his shoulder. This indoefinite information ia given for what it is worth. None of the resi- dentg in the nolghborhood saw the man or hoard ony disturbance in tho barn. Hopes aro enfer- tained of Anderson’s recovery, providing inflam- mation doos not set in, and thoro' appesr to bo no n{mp!cms of it. The fact that ho was iom- orato fn bis babits, and of » quict dinposition, 5 groatly in his favor. Should ho dio bofore gotting tho use of his tongu, it is more than probable that nothing will over be knuwn of Whnt transpired in the barn before hewas found. AMUSEMENTS, OPERA LOULFE.
