In the Senate today Mr. Call, rising to a question of privilege, read a published state- ment purporting to have been made, he said, by the receiver of the Florida Railway and favigation company. The statement reflected on Mr. Call’s course in the Senate in connec- tion with a claim of the company named to certain landsin Florida, Among other state- ments in the artiele was one to the effect that when asked why he (Mr, Call) had pursued the course he had, in opposition to that company, he had replied that ne was obliged to do so be- cause he had no money. The article further stated that when Mr. ll wasin Florida he had no money, but that now he was building a fine residence In Washington. Mr. Call, with great warmth and indignation, @enounced the whole article as an “absolute falsehood and foul slander.” He denied that he was “building a fine residence in Washing- ton.” For many years, he said, a person stand- ing in a near relation to him had had property in charge of Hon. James M. Baker and his suc- cessors In the trust, as trustees. That gentle- man was now Judge of the circuit court of the state of Florida, and was formerly Judge of the supreme court of that state. The trustee hi decided to change the location of the invest- ment to Washington city, and the transaction had been effected.

THE FREE BRIDGE BILL. Chairman Barbour Says He Is Heartily in Favor of it and Will Pash it Along. ASTAR reporter interviewed Representative Barbour, chairman of the House District com- mittee, to-day upon the free bridge bill. He said: “Iread in THE STAB Senator Riddleber- ger’s intimation that I am opposed to a free bridge, but that is alla mistake. The bill has been delayed in the committee for several reasons, One is that the committee want some further information asto what powers of con- demnation will be necessary. There is nothing to be guined ina matter of this kind by undue haste. You will remember that Gen. Hunton ta free bridge bill passed in 1881, but it was Serective and resulted in nothing. ttmade ne provision for the condemnation of property that could not be procured with valid title otherwise. Now the Riddleberger bill con- tains the same defect. It has no provision for the exercise of the power of condemnation. Our committee have been waiting toget the opinion of the Attorney General as 10 how far it will be necessary to condemn and the proper method of __proced- ure, Besides, I have been endeavoring to harmonize the several conflicting elements in the House upon this bill, Now, the Riddle berger bill contains a provision for adraw in the Aqueduct bridge, if that be bought. 1 could not support any such provision and fairly rep- resent my people of Alexandria, for that would destroy their canal, I told Riddieberger so, and he very promptly assented to the striking out of that provision. So that difficulty was re- moved. My committee will not be called until the second Monday in May, and the bill wiil then be reported. I had not deemed it essential to hurry with it, but I shall push it slong now, 1am in favor of a tree briage, of course, because it would afford the people I representadditional facilities for communication with Washington; but I want to make sure that the bill, when d, will secure a bridge. That has béen my ‘only object. While I could not assent to the destruction of the canal, I have all along been heartily in favor of the bridge.” SAYINGS AND DOINGS IN SOCIETY.
