THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON,!D.C.. WEDNESDAY, APRIL 13, [Congress 19 SENATE. Mr. Dawes called the attention of the Senate to a petition which he presented and which he said contained such remarkable statements that he felt bound to speak of them. He there- upon read the petition which represented that the Indians (other than the civilized tribes) living on reservations were left without the protection of the civilizing and restraining in- fluences of law, and earnestly urged on Con- provided at the present session for Indians and others living on Indian reservations. After remarks by Mr. Dawes, Mr. Platt and others the petition was presented and referred. Mr. Dolph from the Committee on Foreign Relations, reported back House bill for the absolute probibition of the coming of Chinese into the United States with a substitute. He stated that the substitute was the bill passed by the Senate to continue in force for ten years all laws now in force prohibiting and regulating the coming of Chinese persons and persons of Chinese descent Mr. Felton said that as it wasa matter of vital importance to the State which he repre- sented. ands the report was different from what he had understood it would be, he desired a few days to elapse before the bill shonid be taken up. so that he might present his own siews and those of the people of the Pacific coast on the subject. 2 Mr. Stewart's resolution calling for informa- tion as to the purchase of silver aud the coin- age of standard silver dollars was taken up.and Mr. Morgan made a general argument in favor Of silver coinage. HOUSE. In the House this morning a dose of his own medicine was administered to Mr. (Tex.). who called up a bill granting right of way through the Indian Territory to the Gainesville, Oklahoma and Gulf Railroad Com- | perv ‘There was no opposition to the bill, but e members whose measures have suffered from Mr. Bailey's stand that a quorum should be present to transact business saw an oppor- tunity strike back and they did so. The point of no quorum was made. and Mr. Bailey demanded the yeas and nays.saying that he had no desire to have the bill passed in the absence of a quorum. One hundred and ninety-four members re- sponded to their names, and further proceed- ings having been dispensed with the bill wi passed. But (if the time of the House is able) an hour and a half of valuable time was consumed before the end was accomplished. The House then went into committee of the whole (Mr. Shively of Indiana mm the chair) on the naval appropriation bill, the pending ques- tion being the point of order raised against the clause appropriating $250,000 towards the construction of a ary dock at. at Algiers, La. PROPERTY I IN ‘THE | DISTRICT. AN INVESTIGATION TO BE MADE AS TO THE METHOD OF ASSESSMENT. AN ALLEGATION THAT DISCRIMINATION HAS BEEN MADE AGAINST SMALL RESIDENCES AND THAT THERE BAS BEEN GREAT UNDERVALUATIONS MADE OF BUSINESS PROPERTY. The following resolution offered by Repre- sentative Johnson of Obio was adopted by the House this morning: Whereas, The board of assessors are about eompieting an assessment upon property in the District of Columbia, and from an estimate furnished by the District Commissioners to the tommittee on appropriations it = ap- pears that this new assessment is to ex- teed the old by only 25 per cent, and| Whereas, said old assessment on land values alone in the District is $76,000,000, when it should be more than $300,000.000, this shows an extraordinary undervaluation, and what is still worse, the greatest injustice between the valuation of land used for business purposes, which in many cases is assessed at less than 14 per cent of its true value, and land used for Tesidence purposes, especially where the small homes are situated, is assessed at from 70 to 80 per cent of its true value, while in many cases land held for speculation is assessed at less than ten per cent of its true value. The foregoing facts were brought out by an expert valuation on enough land in the District to fur- nixb an average. A public hearing was had by | the Commissioners in which this subject was thoroughly discussed, and afters careful ex- amination they say “the figures embraced in these showings seem to have been carefully und conservatively prepared,” and. Whereas, the new assessment should not only show the true value of the property in lawful money, as required by law, Pat should also preserve an equality in the assessment of land in different localities, and not bear more heavily in some sections than in others, Therefore, be it Resolved, That a select committee, consisting of three members,be appointed by the Speaker, which shail have power and authority to inves- tigate and report upou the method of ascer- taming land values by the Board of Assistant Assessors in the District of Columbia; to in- juire whether there is in the assessment now ‘ing prepared discrimination in favor of any sections over others, and generally to inquire imto all alleged inequalities pertaining to the assessment of land values. Such coumnittee shail have power to send for persons and papers, to examine witnesses un- der oath, may employ a stenographer and one clerk. an@ shall report the result of its investi- gation to the House, with such recom da- tion as it may deem proper to make. The ex- pense of such investigation shall be paid out of the contingent fund of the House. Mr. Johnson said to a Star reporter that he believed that there was both unequal assess- ment in the District and undervaluation, and the resolution was offered in the interest of the city and not with any spirit of antagonism. The resolution was adopted without discus- sion. SCHNEIDER IN BETTER CONDITION. ASrag reporter upon visiting the jail this morning found Schneider considerably im- proved, both mentally and physically. He slept well last night and his appetite, which almost completely forsook him after his con- vietion, 1s gradually returning. The jail physician in making his usual morn- ing visit to the inmates of the prison this morn- ing found Schneider rapidly regaining his previous good health and spirits, and was of the opinion that the convicted man would soon be aswell as a man situated as he is could reasonably be. —e— DISTRICT IN CONGRESS. ‘THE PUMBING INSPECTORS BILL PASSED.

The discussion of the bill to extend the Washington and Georgetown line of tracks to the Aqueduct bridge, which took place in the House on Monday, may léad to some new line of action in regard to the general subject of the street railroads of the city. Mr. Blount took an active part in the attack on the extension plan, and in effect served notice on the District committee that something must be done look- ing toward the improvement of the street-car facilities of the city. Mr. Blount proposes in the near future to introduce a resolution in the House which will provide for a special com- mittee to examine into the entire street rail- road question and report to the House by bills or otherwise. Itis probable that the street railway ques- tion will receive still further agitation before Congress this session through a new project, which, it is understood, the here, and Arlington road inteuds to present. The plan comprises 8 somewhat radical change in the chartered route by which this commen reach Arlington. ‘The present route of the road runs from the termination of the Washington and Georgetown line to the Aqueduct bridge,to the “Three Sisters,” crossin; the river bya we thence back to the Virginia side of the Aqueduct bridge and from there to Arlington. The new plan comprises the cutting off of a mile and a half of this route and a new situation | for the bridge across the Potomac.
