Cricaco, Jan Special Telegram to Tur Bee,|—The ‘Tribunethis morning says: The Tribune printed yesterday the open let- tor of Attorney General Leese of Nebraska 23, | tothe attorney general of the United States, It deserves congressional notice, but there is little hope it will ger it Itisa compact, forcible presentment of the wrongs which tho state and the national government have suffered at the hands of the cormorants who control the Union Pacific road. They have wronged the government by diverting from the garnings of tho road over $20,000,000, which should have been applied to the payment of the govern- ment debt, to the building, buying and leasing of branch lines which fail a mil- lion and a half of dollars short of meeting the annual imterest on their bonds. They are cven now proposing to issue and guaran~ tee bonds for $2,200,000 of the worthless Denver & South Park road. They have paid $9,000,000 on land grant bonds from the earn- ings of the road instead of tho proceods of land grant sales, and are using the latter to pay off before maturity the third mortgage vonds, when the lands are made subject to the gavernmeat lien. Tne stute of Nebraska, in which this' road has @& thousand miles of track, has been wronged because the road refuses to lower its extortionate local freight rates and claims that, having a federal charter, it is not subject to the juri diction of the Nebraska gstate transporta- tion board, alleging its charges can be regu- lated by congress alone. Why have Sena- tors Manderson and Paddock kept so mute? Why did Messrs. McShane, Laird and Dor- sey have nothing to say on ' this subject in the last congress! Why are Messrs. Col nell, Laws and Dorsey 8o silent in tha pres- entone! Can it be that they ‘think no re- lease can be given the farmers as against that monstrously subsidized road, or have inply been asleep and have not yet fairly waked upt Itis tmé for the repre- sentatives of Nebraska to break their si- lence. Sl ERIE-MICHIGAN OENTRAL ROW. Considerable Ligat Cast on the Methods of Modern Railroads. Cuicago, Jan, 28,—(Special Telegram to Tue Bee.]—The Chicago end of the row be- tween the Erie and Michigan Central over the business of Fowler Brothers cast con- siderable light on the methods of modern railroading under the bemgn influence of the interstate commerce act. In 1871 the Erie made a flve years’ contract with Fowier Brothers for all their business, amounting to about twenty cars a day. The Erie built special cold-storage warchouses at Wehow- ken and gave Fowler l3rothers every vossi- ble facility, ailowing them free storage and an opportunity to work over their meat and perfect dock facilities. Early in 1889, how- over, the Michigan Central began taking all Fowler Brothers’ business and the Erie was unavle to get a car, It then, of course, re- fused the use of 1ts warehouses to Fowler Brothers, but the firm secured an injunction, which compelled the Erie to allow it the use of the iirie warehouses. 'T'his continued for & year, until last week, when the Erie filled up its docks so that no boats could land, took up the tracks leading to the warehouses and entered suit against Fowler Brothers for breach of contract.” ‘The Erie people say they propose to find out all the improvements given by the Michigan Central to Fowler Brothers and establish a case which will come far nearer putting Michigan Central officials in the penitentiary than has been the celebrated Counselman grain rebate cases. s & Nasnvlille Stock.

An Interesting Lecture on the Sub- Ject by W. J. Bryan. Mr. W, J. Bryan, a bright young lawyer of Lincoln, and one of the leaders in the Chautauqua movement and a’ close student of the tariff, deliyered an interesting lecture at Washington hall last night to the mem- bers of the Tafil Reform club und a numver of others. Therd was n fair-sized gathering of representatiye mmen, and the lecture v closely listened to and the sanent points en- thusiastically recoived. The lecturer was introduced by Prof. Lewis, who annpunced that the subject would be *The Reform of the Tariff—How an d Why It Shetld be Reformed." Mr., Bryan expressed pleasure at being in- vited to address the club, because it was a collection of intelligent men, He started on his subje ct at oh'ce, saying that the tariff is supported by ignorance, intolerance and selfishness, butef these we can only attack the first. o said he was pleased o see that the press of thiswity and the state is assist- ing in this moyement. ‘The speakor said that in order to inaugu- rate a,complete ‘and .permanent - reform of the tarifl it,is negessary to begin by eliminat- ing the principle 0f a protective tariff from our legislature aud from congress, No one would thiuk of triiating to the city council the right to vote-away money raised by tax- ation to the street rallway company or any other corporation, and why should this right be giveu to congress? Thousands of people in this district do not know their congressman , never saw him. Why should they trust him with such powen? When such amove.is brought into the councu every one interested can be there, but in congress 1t is different. Those who want the money aro always there in force, but the people cannot go to Washington on every occa- sion, When manufacturers want to make more money they ask congress to protect them and they will pay higher wages. If tho money is taken from one man and given to another, will it increase the sum of the wages} ‘I'ne speaker charged that the tariff cen- tralizes wealth, intorferes with commerce, corrupts legislation, creates trusts and puts busiuess upon a false basis, All these poiuts were backed up by strong argu- ments. ; It was also asserted that a protective tar- iff is not necessury, The average protection is 47 per cent, and the average cost of labor 18 per cent. Why should labor be protected two and a balf times its valuer Mr. Bryan quoted from Henry Clay’s speeches, in which he savs that the cost of making flaonel 1n this country and England fifty-eight years ago was the same, the only difference in the cost of the flannel being the cost of the raw material. Now we must bave a protective tariff to keep KEngland rrom importing flannel. Reductions on the tariff shoula be made by placing raw material on the free list. A wrong reduction is worse than none. The taxes should be reauced to the needs of tho overnwent and lewve no room for wron g oing. ‘fhe speaker alluded to jthe resolutions passed by the Karmers' alliance, recom- mending that the tax.be allowead to remain on luxuries and removed on the necessities, These resolutions he strongly endorsed, and said that if this be done our factories will run all the year round, At the conclusion of the lecture those in the audience went forward and compli- meuted Mr. Bryan on his address, and an informal discussion was held, —— AMUSEMEN TS, Alexander Salvini was the star at Boyd's 1ast night, and while he hield an appreciative sudience speli-bound, his distinguished father sat in & box and enjoyed an excellent operatic production at the other house.

In this I differ with the majority of priests, but this is not a question of faith, you understand.” ‘I'he lecture was under the auspices of the Single-Tax club, and the speaker was intro- duced with muny very landatory words by W. D. Beckett, sq., 8 prominent member of the club. Dr. McGlynn was feeling quite unwell and perbaps did himself a great injustice by attempting to speak under the circum= stances, o fact which was noticcable during almost the entiro eveniug, but yet did not prevent the audience from’ getting quite a clear idea of the man and his theorios. He is a man about forty years old, of mas- sive build and has a kindly, though not particularly forcible mode of expres sion. He speaks rapidly and last eveoing drow 80 heavily upon the bible, during the first hulf of his discourse, as to make what he said appear more like a sermon than many in the audience had perhaps antici- pated. Announcing his subject, “The New Cru- sade,” the speaker said he would make haste to «(xplain that he was a priest of the sacradotal order, and a teacher of the truth. He believea that nothing should be so prized by the preacher as kinduess and fellowship. Considerable uumbers of men had become estranged from the church on accouut of dogmas. He fain would say vo such, **What- ever you do, have no quarre! with the sweet Christ, and distinguish between the errors of those in high places and the truths which they,teacn.” ~Last of all, apart from other reasous which should make a man not quar- rel with the truth, is, the speaker said, that the truth must and shall prevail. ‘The doctor said there always had been Americans who did uot observe the Fourth of July, ana yet who would deny the nobil- ity, the truth of the facts which prompted that day? “In spite of the facts that charity sermons had been preached on the earth for nearly nineteen hundred years, what has the his- tory of mao been everywhere! ile has Japsed 1nto the scramblo of the anumal. What is this hiatory of man buta_constant warfare for animal supremacy! They have given up land, liberty and even religion. Is such a pdace as comes after suoh conquests the peace most to be desired?” The speaker then considered the condition of life which the absence of real peace, real enjovment produced, and whatis the law of buman life! “Do you vrefer,” said the speaker, ‘‘to utterly eliminate the religious ground of life? Is the law of animal life to be the one law of man—every one for him- self and the dovil take the hindmost? A We hold that the golden rule,” said he, ‘*‘shoald be allowed to assert itself.
