Lincolo, by invitation, addressed the committee Ho did not think shippera could complain of the pres- ent rates. Which nrn:idicu?nuuly Tow; they were too low for the interest of railroad stock- holders. The railroad business, he said, was the worst and most absurdly managed of any in the country, One would expect ;roads to lower their rates when the water route competition was felt but he had known the roads to raise their rates fre- quently at such seasons and lower the rates when business was more than cculd be handleed. Hs thought a minimum rate should be fixed by law, Fluctuating rates unsettled busimess “greatly, Stability of rates was more important than the rate itself, Mr, Liocoln believes that favoritism was shown by roads by giving knowledge of a chaoge in rates to shippsrs. He thought a gemeral law requiring at least ten days notice of a change of rates would be equitable, He beheved in a na- tional board of railway commiesioners, He protested against, the double tariff system of railroads, He believed in basing the tariff upon mileage. The pool system of the coun- try Mr. Lincoln regarded as a farce, In any legislation on the subject of rates a carload should be the unit, and no reduction should be made in rates for large quantities. 1.

Dr, G. P. Hayes, of Colorado, opened the dobate on ths regulation declariog_that the Roman Catholic church had apostatized, and its baptism was therefore invalid, He said: “The plea is made that the minimum of truth being retained the corruptions that overlie it do not iuvalidate the minimum, If we belive thero is truth enough in this church wo act inconsistently in sending missionaries to South America avd Mexico to labor among the catholics.” A number o fother c'ergymen engaged in the discussion, Inally De . T, Brownston, of Washington, Pa, moved to lay the whole matter on the table.

Mr., Pite blade, who was on board the steamer North- coto with Riel atter the latter's capture, gives an interview with the leader which is as fol- lows: Riel is described ns a cunning, intelli- gent man, Ho did not know what the anthor- itieswonld do with him. He'was authorized to act, ho says, by the police nnd the Hudson bay authorities, who tyrannized the half-breeds and abused their power. Speaking of the battle of Batouche, Riel said he had 500 men engaged, of whom eight were killed and two wounded, During the fight he was among the men in the pit. He spoke of the priests a3 opposed to any attempt on the part of the half-breeds to have their wrongs righted, and denounced them as tyranical, ete. He said The priests were against him, not because he rebelled, but becanse he did not_succeed in helping them, The people forced him to fight, and would not let him go back to_the mountain. He was on his way to give him. welf up to Middleton, he ssid, when the scouts captured him, On the subject of his religious views he was very communicative, He declared his opposition to the church of Rome, and eaid its priests had too much to do with civil affairs, A council at Batouche, he said, adopted a religious creed of distinct doc- trines which they wished to teach the people. “We believe in & form of church govern- ment,” he sa'd. ““We prefor the episcopal. We would like to seo a head bishop for the Dominion, or for the New World, who would bs independent of Rome, We do not_ think affairs of church can bo rightly administered 80 far away. This country will nevor be free until she shakes off Rome,” ‘When asked why he rebelled in order to have claims of halt-breeds granted, he said: *We did not rebel. This matter is not re- bellion,” He referred to the treaty between the government and half-breeds of Manitoba, and said as no treaty had been made with his followers they had never transgressed their right, They simply defended themselves, They deeired to have an amiable arrangsment made for their interest. Asked what would be his answer if charged with treason ,he said that a8 ho was acitizen of the United States he could not be a traitor to Canada. He said he went to the United States ot the soiicita- tion of a rich bishop, Tache, He returned, was declared an outlaw, and then went back to the states to which he was banished for five years, ‘‘How much did the Canadisn government give you,” was asked, ‘It gave me £800 ,” he murmured. £600 to me and to my wite £210.” In addition to his above named defense, if charged with treason, he said he should rely on his loyalty while a subject of the Eoglish government. He concluded by saying: *I have been true to the half breeds and have not rebelled against the Canadian Government. I have my papers all right, A citizen of the United States can hardly be a traitor to the domtnion,” Only meagre advicos were sent to-day from Battleford, and they indicate that Pound- maker does not now feel like surrendering unconditionally.

Rier says the half breeds did not rebel; they ware not treated fairly, and hoped for treaty similar to the one made with the half breeds of Mani- toba, Riel claims to be a citizen of the United States and hence not a traitor to Can- ada, and thie, probably, will be his line of de- fonse, A British Discovery, LoNDON, May 26.—The press asociation publishes the following, which, it says, was obtained from a reliable source: Larly in January Alfred Aylward arrived in London from New York, He was ex- tremely reticent in regard to the object of his visit, but one reason told friends was that beforn loog he would again prove a sharp thorn in the side of "the British gov ernment, He went to Paris and remained there a fortnight, staying at the American hotel in the Rus Danora, and descriping him- self asa surgeon dentist. He carefully avoided English and Trish haunts, ignoring the fenian loaders, Our intormant says that Aylwards’ visit was connected with * Riel’s rebellion and the furthering of the movement smong the IFrench population of Canada for their separation from Great Britain, The Riel affair was simply an experiment designed to ac- castom the French Canadians to the fe- pians, About the middle of March Aylwards sailed for New York via Havre, giviog his address to a London friend named Jackson at 8t, Paul, Minn, After his arrival at St Paul many officers of the Irish republican brother hood went westward, including Capt.

According to the current report the president has not been pleased with some of the diplomatic appointments made by the secretary of state, and it is even said that of late the president has acen fit, to make rome selections for diplomatic off not entirely in accord with the wishes of secretary,” 'This puts m definite form the rumors which have been for some time current. No one pretends to speak by authority with regrad to them, nor is it improbable that there are to be any changes in the cabinet, But thera are mavy indications that Mr, Bayard does not find ‘the state department all that his fancy pmnted it, and at times has regrstted that he he senate, where the independence is greater and the burdens less.

The postal clerks were mon of sense and fully appreciated the effect & com- bination such as that suggested would have upon the commerce of the country. For this renson he felt sure, after conversing with many on the subject, that no such step would bo taken, *‘OF course,” said Caprain White, “if the administration were to begin removin superintendents right and left for politica reasons and filling their places with men who knew nothing at all about the business there might be danger, for the clerks would then understand that the next step wonld be te re- move thom also, without cause, They would infer this as the resust of the inability of in- experiencod men to appreciate their worth,” Bapt. Whito also sad that, the demoraliza- tion of the railway postal service in the man- ner threatened would be a much more effective way of interrupting the mails, and more cer- tain obstacle to their prompt delivery than a strike of the clerks in the postoffices. ‘““The rallway postal clerks,” be said, ‘“conld dis- tribute the mails at the postofic and do their own work besides in an emergency, but on the contrary in case of & strike amopg them, the posteffice clerks would ba wholly unable to perform the duties of the rallway postal clorks,” * e —— The Day on the Turf.
