How the Passage of the Atkinson Bill Through Congress was Made Smooth. TRADING ON THE FORCE BILL. Quay asa Railroad Striker—Party Discipline Disregarded, and the Interests of Washing- on Sacrificed at the Command of # Corpo- ration, The struggle between the Pennsylvania rail- road and the people of the District in the present Congress ts rapidly approaching its inevitable end. ‘The Senate has stricken from the Atkinson bill the few and feeble provi- sions looking to future action for the District's welfare with which the House tried to quiet its | conscience, and when ¢he mutter is considered in conference the railroad will evidently shape the measure to suit itself. The railroad’s boast that it has this Congress under its thumb will evidently soon be justified, and unless the President intervenes as mayor of the capital to protect the interests of the city with his veto Washing ton muy as well make up its mind to an unconditional surrender. Viewing the vie- tory of the railroad asa thing already accom- plished, and as a matter of history, the natural comment of the chronicler upon’ the occur- ren¢e is an expression of admiring surprise at the vast power displayed by the railroad in the lobbsing and political field. Though merely a corporation chartered as a common | carrier, it wins its highest distinctions in capacitics far different from those of u trans- | ortation agency and a public servant. It | Reale in legislatitres, it spends money to. elect, Congressmen and Senators, it subsidizes news- papers, it supports an expensive lobby, it dab- bien Speakership elections and gets Repre-| they | sentatives on committees where will do the most good, it threatens or cajoles the represcnfatives of the people, it pulls every string known to politics rahe lobby, and tt has the great advantage | in ite deals ‘that it is not hampered by iv seruples, not even those of _ political | rinciple in burgaining to advance ite selfish Interests, “It obtained such a hold on Congress | that in the memorable engagement between its | forees and those of the United States “army at } the Eastern branch bridge it dared to forcibly putastop to government work upon govern- ment property by agents of the United States, and in the end it routed the army and : ‘DEFIED EVEN UNCLE 8AM with impunity. It, therefore, viewed as_com- paratively easy the task of disposing. of the little unrepresented District of Columbia, which had the presumption to attempt to treat itasan ordinary common carrier, subject to the rules in regard to the protection of the ublic from surface tracks which are enforced in other civilized lands than the great free re- yublic, and subject to the Ten Commandments, including the sixth and eighth. This District is dependent for all its legislation on Congress, ‘one house of which gives its affairs only two afternoons in each month, and often on: these occasions devotes its time to general legisla~ tion or denies the Distric: a quorum. Some ‘legislation for the developing capital is indis- naable, and as afew members can block all its concerns on the ordinary District day it is uliarly vulnerable. In the present conten- Fion the railtond succeded by putting an em- bargo upon all other District legislation until it demands were gratified, by entering into certain political deals by which some men dis- | sed to be friendly to te city trafficked its in- | erests for political advantage, by individual persuasion and threats, and by the constant pressure of a lobby of notable ability und | audacity. ‘TRADING ON THE FORCE BILL. The masterstroke of the railroad waa the un- derstanding between Senator Quay and demo- cratic Senators in regard to the elections bill. The railroad isa hard taskmaster for its ser- vants even of high degree, and it does not per- mit such trifles as ‘party discipline to interfere with obedience to its commands | and the advancement of its interests. A consideration, for instance, of Senator Quay’s ions with ‘the railroad and his dealings with the democrats of the Senate at the last | session in behalf of the railroad will throw considerable light upon his action then and | now in regurd to the elections bill. i Dpposition in the republican ranks to this | bill, in the light of the recent elections and the financial disturl .. is now strong and many reasons of public and even partisan policy have | developed to apparently justify those who urge the wisdom of postponing or abandoning the measure. But this was not 40 emphatically the case at the last session of Congress, and the evidence goes to show that though good grounds for opporing the elections bill: were as plentifal_as blackberries, even at that time, none of them operated fo influence Senator Quay’s actioi ‘The seerct of the interviews between Sen- ator Quay and the democratic leader in the Renate which led to the abandonment of the elections bill last session has never been pub- lished... A number of explanations of Mr. Quay’saction in this matter have been made, his anxiety to the tariff Ul being given | geverally as the motive for turning the switch | to sidetrack the election bill. Undoubtediy | with gome of the Senators who voted with the democrats this motive, besides that of indif- ference or opposition to the elections bill, was what induced their action. But Mr. Quay him- self gave an entirely different reason as in- fluencing his action in his conversation with the representative of the democrats, What passed between them when THE DAROAIN WAS MADE for the abandomment of the elections bill was | substantially: this: Mr. Quay first asked how long the democrats expected to discuss the rift Dill. : ‘The reply was that they would discuss it until its character had been fully exposed to the country. Mr. Quay then asked if the matter could be facilitated any by an assurance that no attempt wonld be mite to pass the elections bill. ‘Lhe democratic leader replied diplomatically that he could not say, but added that the aemo- crate Were anxious for aa adjournment. \ Mr. Quay then made the statement that it 4was very important that the Pennsylvania rail- ‘yond bill should pass before adjournment; that he was very unxious for its It could not come tip for action if the tariff discussion ‘was to continue indefinitely, amd he was will- ing, therefore, in order to get a date on the railroad bill to use his influence to have the elections bill laid aside. ‘There was probably no direct agreement that the democrats were to vote for the railroad bill, but they knew that the abandonment of the elections bill, us far as it | Hoyt, a8 Quay’s obedient servant, of course who with other and good motives followed his leadership in side-tracking the elections bill were not aware of Mr. Quay’s purpose or of the fact that he was trading upon their votes for the benefit of his railroad bill. QUAY'S DEVOTION TO THE RAILROAD. It may seem absurd that any Senator would sacrifice or even jeopardize what was then be- lieved to be an important party'measure for 80 small aselfish aim. But Mr. Quay’s devotion to the interests of the railroad is not of any inary character. The country is familiar the series of accusations of the most eerious character —— against Senator Quay by the New York World some time ago. The statement filled between fifteen and sixteen columns of the World and was in eight chapters, the first seven chapters being printed on Veb- ruary 10 and the last chapter on March 3, 1890. ‘The New York Evening Post subsequently re- iterated these charges in a statement occupying some ten columns of the paper. The papers thronghont the country dealt with the matter at greater or jess extent. Mr. Quay’s failure to answer these damaging charges has been a matter of general comment. ‘Two long chapters of this indictment were de- voted to the detailed statement charging Quay with being interested in a gigantic _jol for the benefit of the Pennsylvania railroad, in which he showed his devotion to that corpora- tion and which ended in one of his ascociates being sent to the penitentiary. THE RAILROAD INDEMNITY BILL SCANDAL. ‘The charges in these two chapters were to the following effect: “Following the great railroad strike in July, 1877, (and as.a_result of it and the calling out of the state troops) came the indemnity bill scandal. A bill was introduced into the legis lature to indemnify the Pennsylvania Railroad Company and others for the loss caused by the strikers. The sum of $4,000,000 was appro- priated for that purpose by the measure. Oue- if of that sum was to go the lobby, official and otherwise, if the billpassed. * #’* + * The legislature of 1879 assembled on January 7 and adjourned June 6 af the same year. Itis considered to have been one of the most notable sessions in the history of Pennsylvania. Gov. Hoyt was entirely in the power of Quay and Quay was the absolute “boas’ of the situa- tion at Harrisburg. If the bill appropriating £4,000,000 (referred to above) to pay for the damages caused by the Pittaburg rioters be- came a law Quay would have bud =2.000,000 to divide. There was opposition, however. to bill. Unfavorable comment has already bee caused by the passage of the measure cre: the office of recorder of Philadelphia for Qu: individual benefit, and the newly-clected mein- of the legislature were not all in accord with him, although some of them were not in the house for sentiment. The advocates of the bill were very active in theit attempt to se- cure voles and Quay tried some sharp prac- tice. One of the principal manipulators was Wm. H. Kemble. Under Quay's counsel Kemble and Emil Petroff,a inember of the house of representatives, and others were de- tected ax among the corrupters and were i dicted therefor by the grand jury of Dauphin county. Under the new constitution it was found that such frauds could no longer be petrated as openly as heretofore with impunit etrof! was tried for bribery and convicte: and then the lawyers for the prosecution were prepared to prosecute Kemble, as well as some other big men in the conspiracy whom they were after. These lawyers were more than surprised, however, when Kemble pleaded guilty, and they were deprived of the oppor- tunity for an examination in open court with the expectation of obtaining’ damaging evi- dence ‘against the chief conspirators, Quay among them. But Kemble knew what he was doing. He was the author, it is said, of the epigram, ‘Addition, division’ and silence,’ and he smiled when sentenced by the court toa term in the penitentiary, and is reported to have said to his friends who condoled with him: ‘Don't fear. Iwill prove another Samson and pull the temple down over their heads unless they fix things forme.’ ‘hen the excitement over thé conviction of Petroff and the self-confessed criminality of Kemble diminished a little, Quay displayed his hand. The state board of pardons wus a board whicl: was practically in his power and he pro- cceded to use it in behalf of his followers who were at the gates of the state prison. The board of pardons by law consist of the secre- tary of the commonwealth, then Quay: the lieu- tenant-governor, then C. W. Stone; the attor- ney-general, then Henry W. Palmer, and the secretary of internal affairs, then A. K. Doble. Quay caused the board to to be assembled in extra session and without more ado proceeded to pardon the bribers. It is alleged that Lieut.- Gov. Stone objected seriously to the scheme, but the superior will of Quay dominated and Petroff and Kemble were whitewashed for their misdeeds by a vote of the board, which recom: mended to the governor their ‘pardon. Gor carried out his-part, and the cuiprits were set at liberty. The ostensible reason for the par- don of Kemble was that a part of. his sentence (the imposition of ‘hardtlabor’) was illegal, and that, therefore, the entire sentence must fail. Of this performance the New York Tribune said at the time in its editorial columns: ‘A more insolent defiance of public sentiment has not been seen since Tweed asked the taxpayers of New York what they were going todo about it.’ ‘The act of the pardoning board setting Ke ble and Petroff at liberty caused a storm of it dignation throughout Pennaylvania. Quay conduct was strongly condemned and Presby- terinn synods passed resolutions against the pardoning board. In the meantime, however, the indempity bill, 80 often reférred to, had not advanced in the legislature. The senate could not be got into line to vote for it, although some of the seuators would have profited largely if the bill had become a law. Quay en- deavored to use as a lever'in favor of the meas- ure in the senate the xo-called border raids bill, a bill which provided idemnity to residents in Franklin, Adams, York and Lancaster counties who snffered from the invasion of the coufeder- ate troops during the war. He tried to trade votes from those counties for tle railroad in- demnity bill in return for a promised support of the border reids bill. The indemnity bill, however, was finally defeated in the senate, and at once Quay dispatch-d ton certa: high of- ficial of th+ Pennsylvania railway 2 telegram which passed over the private ra‘lroad wire to Philadelphia.

But al! has been of no avail against the skillful raanipulation of Congress by the road. WHAT THE RAILKOAD GAIN! If the railroad, as now seems likely, passes the bill in the shape which it desires it will gain condonement of illegal encroachments upon the property of the United States for which itis now under indictment at the in- stance of the Attorney General of the United States and a former commissioner of public “buildings and grounds, it will secure an nddi. tional lind grang from the United States in the shape of authority to occupy with its tracks I reservations, it will indirectly strengthen its hold upon the mall and it will gain directly power of condemnation and other valnable privileges. It was estimated in the Mouse that its acquisitions would be worth to 10,000,000. From one point of view the legislation is worth vastly more than this to it, for without this law it cannot legally transact its business over certain tracks which are absolutely essen- tial to its operati ‘The ure. is practi- cally a rechartering of the road and ought to be accompamed by conditions. One of its principal gains by the vie tory will be the fact that it obtained what it wanted without a single concession to the public in return, and that this proof of its control of Congress’ will suggest the hopeless- ness of attempts to compel a decrease uf the disfigarement and danger of its occupation in the futnre. ‘The pill, as the railroad framed it, legulizes and perpetuates surface tracks at points where the removal of these tracks and of the accompanying grade crossings is sought. It authorizes the multiplication f such tracks these pomts in the future and the indefinite increase of the persons ty whose interest it will | be to retain these tracks un the surface By confirming the allegal occupation of half a dozen small reservations without tion it establishes a prineiple which der hopeless any attempt to shake its legul though theoretically temporary occupation of the mall. It giv-s away for nothing to the rail- road the concessions which ought to be the price of public relief from some of the evils of grade crossings and the surface occupation of the mall, and thus denies thi» relief. "It ix re- ported as a settlement of the railroad as preference to measures which include with the enlargement of the freight facilities treat- ment of the question of gragle crossings and the occupation of reservations. Indorsement of it ix a refusal of them anda perpetuation of the conditions which they seek to change. The people have Jong sought unsuccessfully im- provements in the railroad occupation while they had concessions to offer the railroad in retarn. Will it not completely destroy all chance of their success to rob them of ‘their only means of bartering with the road for pub- lic relief?
