They are not satisfied with doubtful promises to counterbalance valuable grants made outright to the railroad. They foar, apparently with g00d reason, that the railroad will not do volume tarily that which it has fought so hard to prevent Congrom from requiring it todo in the pending legislation. ‘The provision for a com- mission, upon which the advocates of the bill and a part of its opponents compromised in the House, and on the strength of which the latter voted for the amended bill, has been stricken out by the conference committee. The promise made to the Senate committce may in some way be rendered equally inoperative.

The local feeling in the matter is that the railroad, having secured what it wants without binding conditions, wil! snap ite fingers in the face of the District and of the legislators to whom it has made promises. The people of the capital will be very ghul to find that their fears upon this point are unfounded. and that the Senate committee is able to holt the' railroad to its al- leged agrewment. EE Finance, cloture, election bill. The third Senate caucus thus decided the order of busi- ness to be taken up by the Senate. The agree- ment on the previous question was the most remarkable compromise effected. It proposes to change the whole traditional character of the Senate as an easy-going “deliberative Lytton’s Complete Works, 13 vols, cloth Macaulay's History of England, 5 vols., other standard and rare sets in One hindinis, Published by lest American and foreign houses, all Sold at cut prices.

POPULAR SHOPPING PLACE, body.” The previous question was adopted by 7TH STREET. a8 the House just before the war of 1812 in order to carry into effect the measures of the war party. The Senate has always resisted the Manzarps, adoption of clotare, insisting upon free debate FIFTH AVENUE HOTEL, on all questions. It onght to be borne in area mind now that the adoption of cloture by eaucus and the adoption of cloture by the Senate are two distinct things. This is no im- peachment of the sincerity of the Senators who voted for the rule in caucus. Many ‘things may take place. First of all this is a short session. Financial bills are given preference by the order of business. Then the apportionment bill will be received from the House. After that the annual appropriation bills will press more and more as the session advances. It will be in the power of the dem- ocrats to insist upon indefinite debate even if consideration of the rule can push aside any of these measures. To adopt a cloture rule the Senate may have to use cloture. Can this be done in the Senate? That is the question of questions. = ee ‘The reapportionment bill which passed the House yesterday after slight opposition is a measure thet is about as fair from every stand- Cora goes COMPLETE, ALL COLORS, point ae could have been adopted.

But the distribu- tion is apparently based on a principle of Justice to all the states. No serious objection was presented except from New York. It would have been better for public interests if some lower total number could have been agreed upon, but this was not practicable in the face of the opposition of those states which would have been affected by the reduction. — - Editor Watterson of the Louisville Courier Journal will celebrate his silver wedding next Saturday at his home in Kentucky. There is hardly a newxpaper office in the land into which Henry Watterson’s incisive wit, strong intellect and genial good fellowship have not come as welcome visiturs, and from which no word of congratulation, no hearty wish of long continued peace and prosperity will take their way to him at this time. And not only from those of his profession will come these kindly re- minders of good will, but from all men every- where who know him. —— +2 While the factions in Ireland are belaboring each other with blackthorn and blinding each other with lime the evicted tenants and deni- zens of the potato-blight districts are in a Pitiable condition, if reports are not ex- aggerated. No doubt the earlier rumors on- larged somewhat melancholy facta, but there is safficient truth in later and fuller aceounts to justify apprehension and to inspire the humane to liberality. Now while the collection of political fands is suspended might it not be well to hasten the sending of necessary supplies to the portion of Ireland ‘most in distress? 1 Senators have adupted the curious method in HOLIDAY PRESENTS or FANCY BOXES, - OBJECTS OF ART.
