Spectat Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Wasitnatox, D.C, Murch M.—The Inquiry about to bo instituted by the Sonate Judiclary Cominittey into a contract recently entered into by the Union and Central Pactilo Ruilways on tho ong purt,and tho Pucifie Mall Stenmabip Company on tho othor, will probably lend to du- yelopinenta which will show that Messrs. Jay Gould and C, P. Huntington have succeeded In obtutning full control of the freight and -pos- senger traae between San Francisco and Chino. and Japnn, 2s well as destroying all competition with thoir respective roads between New York and Sun Francisco, It {8 understood that tho evidenco to bo submitted to the Committee will establish tho fact that the payment of $110,000 per month {n the shupe of a subsidy to tho Pacific Mail Steamship Compnny ts tho lenst im- portant fentura of the transaction, It scoms that in order to complete the power of : ‘TNR RAILHOAD MONOPOLY, Goutd and Huntington, acting for the Oriental & Occidental Steumship Company, which has two rteamers also plying between San Francisco and Chinw and Japan, and is the competitor of tho Pacitic Muil for trade with thoss countrics, have bought the two ateumers and franchises of tho Pacific Mail Company: belonging to the China. Iino, ngreeing to pay an aggregate of $1,200,000 in monthly installments of $100,000, ‘This entire trade between China aud Japan and Sau Frans clseo passes into the control of un inside cor- poration of the Union and Central! Pacifiv Rail- road Companics, and confinos tho businoss of the Paeifly Mall Company to the carrying of, freight and passengers botween New-York and San Francisco, Tho control .f tho ‘Chinn trado was the main object of tho railrond combinn- ton, and {n onler.to scoure this the payment of tho subsidy of $110,000 per month to the Paolfta Mail Steamship Company was a condition pre codent, ‘ oop . BY TMS ARRANGEMENT tho raflrond companies not only secure the most vulunble franchises of the Paciile Mall Compas ny, but it 1s asserted that thoy secure the most. yalunblo portion of that Company's property. Tho two steamships which are thus transferred to the railroads, the Pekin and tho Tokio, cor delivered at Sani Francisco, carly $3,000,000, and itty suid that tho other Vessels of the Pacitic Mali Company can be dupllented for tho lost named sum. An tho result of this transaction, it is assorted that the freight and _escnigor charges between Chinn and Now York, by tha Aleamsbip tines, have beon advanced almost double, and that part of the transnetion by which tho China trade was: transferred to tho rallrond companies CANNOT BF REACHED by Congreastonal or judicial uction for the rea fon thit the transfer wis made to tho Oriental Stenmehip Company, and the ratlrond compn- nies, us sich, do not Appear in the business. The arrangement, however, by whieh tho two rnil- roud companies ngeco to pay the Paesie Mail Compnny $110,000 per month for privilege of fxing pussonger and freight rates by tho’ ocean route botweon New York and 5in Francisco can, it is belioved, ‘bo reached by Congress, and it Is the opinion of those familfar with the various acta under which the Pacifio Haflroad Compantes wore chartorod and subskiized that tho paymont of the subsidy to the Pucifle Mail by the Union and Central Pacitic Companics is ilexal, because it {g, us describod in the preamble to tho rosolu~ von passed by the Senate, * Directly prejudicial to public intercats, AND CONTRANY TO THY PUNT POLtOY that controlled Congress fn churtoring the Unlon Paelic Railway Company, ana in grant- ing to both rallway compnnios farge subsidies in monoy and Janda.” It ig nald that the Gould-Huntington combina- ton, having secured, through tho Oriental & Oceidontal Company, absolute control of tho China trade, do not care for tho contmect lie tween the Union and Central Paeille Companica and the Pactilo Mail, and would not object to proceodings Intending to dectire that contract Megal As tho Goulid-luntington party have scuttred tho most viduublo franchises, and tha property of tho Pacific Mail by tho transfor of the ne botweon Ban Francisco and Ching, thoy are not unwilling to be relloved from the pry ment of §110,000 per month to the steamship company, and it hag been Intimuted that tho Sonate resolution of tnguiry waa luatizated by the Gould-Huutington tnturest for thts very purpose, ‘ CONTESTED ELECTIONS. THE PLORIDA CARE, Speciat Dispateh to ‘The Chleage Tribunts Wasiinaton, D.C. March 14.—On lust Friday Chnirman Springer, of the Hause Committes on Elections, gave notice that ho would call up the contestad caso of Curtin ngainst Yorum curly this week, "This caso Js, 80 fur us the rocord of tho testimony {8 concerned, one which bus In- yolved more necessary labor on tho part of tho Committee than all the other cuacs before thom combined, It wns, however, deckled by tha Committee severul wueks ugo, Tho Domocratio mombers of the Committca unantmousty voted to sound tho caso back to tho people for now elcetion, There {9 one other case bofors the Elections Committeo which, a8 a mutter of justico, ought to have been decided by the Committee and reported to tho House long ago, When Congress mot last December, Democratic mombers of the Commit teo were loud in their declarations that the cons tested cnscs should be disposed of at an early day.

The papers in tho casa of Bisbeu avainst Hull wero ull printed when Congress ussembled in December, Tho couse wos prvopuy taken up by the Hub-Commit~ ct too, 2t wus ful rgued und sublaittod about six Weeks ago,'and nothing hus been done with Itaince, By a fraudulent canvass Hull was de- clured elogted by the Bound of Btate Canvassers, who aliowod bin 4 majority of twelve yotos, Cdl.

The enrreetions which Mr. Hull's counsel admit should bo mute increases Mr. Diabee's majority from 1 to 423, In Mr. Hull's behalf tis claimed that this inajority should be deeroused by ninety. five votes, ‘leaving Mr. Blabee a inajority of 7. The only othor claim set up in behalf of Mr. Hull is that certain returns should hot be counted bechuse the Canvasaing Boards did not count, and becaura it Is argued that the Supreme Court of tho State bad ne Jurisdiction compel Canvassing Boards to canvass auch io correcthésa Of these returns ts ned or: impenched.. The Committee of is nsked to reject thom simply. beenuse the Canvassing Bonurds arbitrarily did so, far the urpose of figuring out a mofority for Hull. This {8 the cuse in a nutshell.

THE OUTCOME OF THR CARE. Special Dispateh to The Chtcago Tritune, Wasmxaton, March 14.—The House Elections Committee bas not yet bad tho courage to de- clio tho; Donnelly-Washbum case, although tho Domocrats gonornlly insist that the Com- mitteo will Gnally reportin favor of unseating Washburn: and of seating Donnelly, The Washington Sunday Gezelte, n Bourbon organ, which ought to know. whereof {t affirms, says this morning that the majority of the Commit- tee will soon report in favor of Donnelly, Tho grounds upon which the Democrata will attempt fojuatify this action can beat be [earned from tho artictoin tho Gazette, which shows that thoy are willing to resort to any expedient, Tho Gazetle says: “ We are gind to learn that the masority of tho Committee on Elections of ‘the Mouse will soon report in fnvor of unseating Willlam D. Wast- bitrn, of Minnesota, and seating Ignatius Don- nelly in bis place. This {s right. The testimony reveals 8 most shameful stato of things in that district. The Committee will report 296 cascs of bribery where the monoy was pald and tho votes given for Washburn, sod a number of other cases whure money was offered. In additicn to this, the workingmen of Minneapolis wore tn- timidated and bulldozed in the moat outrageous: manner; threatened with starvation If they voted against Mr, Washburn; and tholr ballots numbered, so that thofr employers might know how thoy really voted.” BEN IDOLL.
