An Ohio Senator's Scheme to Prevent Their Access to Valuable Data Curcado, Feb. 26.—A Tribune special from Columbus, Ohio, says: Senator Gear of Wyan- dotte is after the grain dealers of Chicago. He introduced a bill yesterday which will go a long ways toward depriving the grain speculators from getting the necessary date upon which they estimate the grain supply of the country, the sarplus and. shortage, and then fix the’ price accordingly. His billamends section 522 by striking out Uiat part which ro- quires furmers to return to supervisors the number of acres of wheat, éc., sown, and the number of bushels produced. The bill fur- ther requires manufacturers to furnish statis- tics of the amount of goods they produce, not for taxation but for statistical purposes. A crowd of forty or fifty members and spec- x8 who had no fear of the board gathered day evening in the alley which separates board of trade building from Kiaite biock, and for an hour or wore traded vigorously in puts and calls. A considerable business seemed to be doing, though in theaggregate nothing like the5,000,000 to 10,000,000 privileges, which, up to dass; Mon- day, used to constitute’ a fair afternoon's busi- ness. It was stated that despite their expressed determination to have nothing to do with pute and caily numerous houses were havings orders forced upon them. eee CAPTURED GARZA’S DIARY. ‘The Mexican Bandit, Howover, Sueceoded in Eluding Capt.

(pace DISTRICT IN CONGRESS, A Good Deal of Business Transacted by the Senate Committee Today. Six Senators put in an appearance this morn- ing at the regular meeting of the Senate | District committee. They were Senators | MeMillar: (chairman), Higgins, Hansbrough, Perkirs, Harris and Barbour. Senator Faulkner, who rarely misses a meeting, is in- disposed. Business commenced at 11 o'clock, and for the succeeding sixty minutes matters of local interest occupied the committee's un- divided attention. THE ONE-MILE LIQUOR LIMIT. Careful consideration was given the bill to amend the act which probibits the granting of liquor licenses within one mile of the Soldiers’ Home. This measure had in it a proviso which prevented the application of the law south of Florida avenue. An adverse re- ¢ was unanimously authorized and Mr. sbrough will present it to the Senate. There was not a single member of the commit- tee who this morning favored the idea of ab- breviating the usefulnessof the present statute; everybody was outspoken against it. ADVERSE BEPORTS. The bill toamend the act authorizing the District Commissioners to make police regula- tions for the government of the District was ordered to be adversely reported because the subject is covered by the joint resolution on theutrical licenses, which was yesterday signed by the President. ‘Adverse report was also ordered on the bill to incorporate the Georgetown, Arlington and Falls Charch Railway Company. This bill pro- ued to give the company the privilege of Toying tracks and operating their care over the, Aqueduct bridge—something the committee will not hear of. Senator Hansbrough’s bill for the removal of snow and ice from the sidewalks, cross- walks and gutters in the city was talked over informally and was sent to the District Com- missioners for consideration and report, THE CENTRAL STREET RAILWAY COMPANY. There may ultimately be a favorable report on the bill to incorporate the Washington Central Street paar cee but the bill | place the committee ia pretty thoroughly of opinion that there is no public demand for new street railroads west of the Capitol, and. that conclusion seems to wipe out the greater portion of the proposed road at one wipe, as it were. Then the com- mittee will not permit the company to lay foot of track on Maryland avenue east; and lastly it will refuse to allow of horses ‘as motore. Senators. MeMillan and Harris, the subcommittee on the bill, will be in the committee room at 12 o'clock tomor- row to talk matters over with representatives of the company. If the company desires to run cars over an eastern route that evades Mary- Jand avenue and comesto an end somewhere near the Baltimoreand Ohio depot it can prob- ably get a favorable report. Ifit will not do this then the committee proposes to find out whether there is business enough to justify the extension of one of the established roads. THE ANACOSTIA EXTENSION. This afternoon the subcommittee on the bill authorizing the extension of the Anacostia company’s tracks held a meeting for the pur- pose of amending the bill. ‘The committee be- jeves there should not beany new tracke and the measure, when reported, will authorize Anacostia folks to run cars up 9th street to G on the Metropolitan tracks, from 9th and G streets to llth and G on the Eck-; ington tracks, down llth to E anfi along E to 9th on the Belt company's iron. Several of the prominent business houses in the vicin- ity of 11th and F streots have petitioned for the passage of the bill. AGL-NIGHT STREET CAR SERVICE. Tomorrow morning at about 11 o'clock the subcommittee on the all-night street car serv- ice bill will give a hearing to parties interested. ‘The Washington and Georgetown, the Mctro- tan and the. Columbia, companies. will reprosented. There is no mention of the Columbia company in the Bill, but it has oc- | curred to some members of the committes that the Columbia company should run cars at hours which would accommodate the hundreds of people who-labor in the government print- ing office at night.

REGRET OF THE SPORTS. The news that the governor of Virginia has signed the anti-cambiing till introdueed im the legislature by Capt. Murhbach of Alexandria and passed aftera hard fighi, was received wi every evidence of «incere regret in many quar- where sporting men make their headquarters. Ever since the first news of it renched here they have been dis- cussing the situation in little groups where ani- muted conversation prevails. ‘The general Opinion seems to be that the whole thing 1 dead wrong. They mace a hard batile against the adoption of the bill and now that they know themselves defeated they are taking it dead game, as true sports should. “The bill was aimed primarily against Jacksou City, which bas jong been regarded as an eye- sore, in fact ever since gamoling in the Dis- trict was made illegal. in the form in which the act now stands it makes it unlawful to make write or sell pools or mutuals on the sult of any trotting or running race, base bal nurtch, election or contest of any kind, or to establish, keep, lease, rent; or use, or" know- ingly suffer to be used or occupied any house, building or portion of a building, vessel or place on lnud or water for such purposes. It is said that in the opinion o' the ablest Jawyers in the legislature the effect of the bill will be to close up immediately ail pool rooms in the state, whether they have licenses or nut. Any license, they contend, is inoperative and should not have been issued anyhow.

The situation of affairs was the only thing talked about in the crowd.

If they would only refuse to buy the papers or to trade with the people that advertise in the Papecs we would soon see which side would win, Gamblers have got to make a living somehow, and they are just as likely to get hungry as newspaper men aro any day in the week." had punched The noon over the A SMALL CROWD AT JACKSON crT¥.
