A bill to establish a free public and de- Ppartmental library and reading room in the, District of Columbia has been intro- duced by Mr. Heard (by request) in the House. It has been drawn as the result of the recommendation made by the com- mittee of the board of trade, which was unanimously adopted by that body, The full text of the bill is as follows: Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That there be, and is hereby, established™in the city of Washington a free public and de-| partmental library and reading room, being aiso a circulating or lending Nbrary, for | the use of the citizens of the District of | Columbia and of the employes of the sev- eral departments and offices of the govern- ment in Washington. The general manage- | ment of the library shall be committed to a board of trustees consisting of eleven | citizens of the District of Columbia, to be —- by the President of the United tates. Sec. 2. That said library shall be located in the new post office building of Wash- ington, D. C., and the architect of the same | is hereby directed to provide in his plans and specifications rooms in said building suitable for an@ adapted to library and reading-room purposes, adequate to the ac-| Sommagation of not less than 75,000 vol- “Sen, 3. That whenever provisions for the Mbrary are completed such books, period! cals and papers in the existing libraries of the several executive departments and offices of the government in the city of Washington as in the judgement of the head of the department, bureau or office affected are not required for the special official use of said department, bureau or office shall be transferred to the free pub- Nic and departmental library and reading room, for its use, the duty of the head of each department, bureau or office library is maintained for the use of em ployes of the government to deliver all suc books, periodicals and papers, without d lay, to the free public and departmental Mbrary and reading room, and thereafter mo general circulating Mbrary but only such Mbrary as is required for its special official use shall be established or main- taine? by any department, bureau or office of the government in the District of Colum- bia. Sec. 4. That the librarian of Congress ‘is hereby authorized and directed to turn over to the free public and departmental Mbrary and reading room such duplicate copies of books in his charge as are not required for the use of the Library of Con- gress. Sec. 5. That upon the completion of rooms for the library herein provided for, the said board of trustees shall appoint one librarian and such assistant librarians and other employes as the said board may deem necessary. Sec. 6. That all citizens of the District of Columbia and all officers, clerks and other employes of the government on duty in the city of Washington shall be entitled to the pri of the free public and and it is hereby made! in which a circulating | departmental library and reading of all charge, including the books contained therein as a panama library, under such regulations as shall be prescribed board of trustees: Provided, That brary and reading room shall be 4 from 9 o'clock ante meridian to 10 0’ 3 o'clock post meridian to 10 o'clock post meridian, Sec. 7.

He Criticises the Language Used b9, Judge Caldwell. In his decision restoring the wages sched- jule on the Union Pacific, as noted in yes- terday’s Star, Judge Dundy said: “A week or so ago the train men in the lemploy of the Union Pacific Railway Com- |pany had a hearing before Judge Caldwell, |where the wage question was under con- |sideration. That case in all essential par- ticulars was the same as this one. A writ- jten opinion was filed in the case. Some facts are stated in the opinion, one or two jimportant facts are misstated and some im- ;Portant facts are omitted entirely. I pro- jpose to give a history of the case and the |Teasons that led to the making of the or- der that has been extensively criticised and |@enounced. This I do here and now, be- | cause it is the only opportunity I have had | for stating the reasons on which action as based. |“SSruch of the opinion is devoted to the Joccupation and business qualifications of | the receivers, who happened to be appointed without consultation with the senior circult |judge. Much of it is devoted to the |character of the injunction, and which was under consideration by the court, and much of it is devoted to that part of the order yhich authorized the receivers to put the schedule tn force on the Ist day of 1894. The author of the opinion seems to have taken great, if not malicious, pleasure in passing his strictures on what has been done in connection with the mat- ters then under consideration. “No one probably questions the right to do so, but many, very many, have ques- tioned the good taste and decency of the manner in which the hearing was had and the opinions prepared. “The reasons for revoking my order are not made known to us. It cannot well be contended that the portions of the order in question was contrary to law or justice or reason, or that it was revoked for such reaso The only reason thought to exist for its revocation is the source from which ‘it emanated. Hereafter if any of these poor men have a grievance they want heard in court it may be somewhat expen- |sive for them to travel eight or ten hun- |dred miles from here to hunt up the ‘source of power,’ the ‘fountain head of justice,’ be- fore whom an application might be made for leave to file a petition asking to have the wrong redressed, which was fully ac- corded to all such by the order in question until It was revoked. —— Florida J 1 Appointments. Justice White of the Supreme Court has appointed Peter A. Williams United States marshal for the southern district of Florida, and G. Bone Patterson, United States attorney for the same ‘istrict.
