C., March 14, There was nover more rapid work done on ® tariff bill than that which took place in a dingy little committee room in the sub-biase ment of the old portion of the capitol this af- tornoon, The republican members of the committec on ways and means were having their final meeting and were for tho last time passing upon the provisions in the now tariff bill. Al of the republicart members of the committee weve present, and as rapidly s a clause, sontence or paragraph could be road, Chwirman McKinley called for a viva volcs vote and the question was determined. Three or four items of special importance wero left over from the meoeting of today, among them sugar. At the eoting tomorrow the republicans ex- pect to complete the consideration of the bill, whieh it is ntended shall go the WasmiNGToN Buneav Tie Owana Ben, } | full commictee the first of n: woek, The three republican members of the committee who are fighting for free raw sugar, Bur- Lafolette of Wisconsin and Gear of Towa, have set about to force favorable action upon their position. They have asked tho advocates of free raw sugar from tho various states in the house to get togetuer and adopt resolutions defining their positions. The republican members of the Hlinois delegation adopted a resolution and adtached their signatures to it declaring that in whatever form the tariff bill as prepared by the commiitee on ways and means shall bo roported it must favor the free admission of sugar below sixteen degreos of fineness, which i8 raw sugar in the common parlanco of trado. As soon as the bill reaches tho committee the contents will rupidly becomo known, ns the republicans say the demo- cratio members of the committee will have no compunctions about making the pro- visions of the measuro public. It is possible that the bill will reach the house within ten diys or two weeks at the furthest. Some of the republican members of the committee, goaded by the criticisms of the press and smarting u little under the irritation of so much wdividual opinion, are insisting that tho bill shall go to tho house from the full committeo by the first of the week aftor next. rows of Michigan, DUDLEY'S DEFL In the house a few days ago Mr. Crisp of Georgia, who was chaivman of the commit- tee on elections under the Cleveland admins istration, up-ended and delivered himself of bitter personal attack upon Colonel He characterized him in a very severe manuer for his services to the republican party and said everything he ould to smirch thé colonel's reputation. is morning he had an opportumty to con- front Colonel Dudley with his innuendoes, but he did not avail himself of the opportunity. In fact Colonel Dudle solicited an acceptanco from Mr. C “personal satisfaction” it it was desired. Mr. Crisp is at the head of the democratic winority of the house committee on eicction, which is now considering the Millor-Eiliott contested election from South Carolina. Colonel Dudloy is attorney for the contest- ant and when ho rose to address the commit- tee hie prefaced his remarks with some ob- servations personal to the gentleman from Georgia “Iv sy be that T m my professional c pacity am doing the cause of my client vio- lence by appearsag beforo this committee,” .Colonel Dadle; “There are enter- tained on the part of at least one member of the committes opinions of and feelings toward me which may prejudice my case, but T want to say that 1 come here solely in a professional way and any feeling that may be held against mo for any reason by any member of this jury should not militate agamst my client. Another thing 1 want to say at the outset of my argu- ment is that if there is any gentleman here who inteuds to attack my" personal, political or professional eharacter, on the floor of the touse, when thoir caso comes up in that Iwant him to speak up hero ana not assail me ata time and in a placo where | n not aefeud myseif. Iam hero to meot any aspersions which way bo brought ngainst me here or elsewhere,” and Colonel Dudley looked Mr. Crisp bard in the face as added with emphlasis: “AllI askisa fair fighting chance, and not_to be assaulted where L will bo helpless.”” Mr, Crisp said 1oLt Wor ELECTRIC ROADS FOR WABHINGTON. In the senate today during the considera- tion of a proposition to grant a right-of-way through the streets of Washiogton to a street railway company, Scnators Mandor- son and Paddock made 'strong arguments in favor of over-head electricity for motor power. ‘They contended that it was superior to horse power and cited tho successful use of the systemin Omana. Mr Paddock spoke at length of the electric street railrond buitt in Omaba, and swd that although there bad been much opposition to it at the time, there wus not a citizen in Omaha now who would mnot be glad to have an clectric line on .every street in the cit There had not been a singlo accident on that road. Mr. Mander- 800 spoke of the great valve of strect rail- way franchises and suggested that tho proper method was 1ot to permit parties ‘who had speculative interests in outside real eatate to dictate lines of road by waich their real estate could be brought into market,but that there should be some demund from the suburban population along the proposed route on the commissioner of the uistrict or in congre: Then the franchise should be wranted to thoso who are ready to pay most forit. As it was, now those roads wero operated to the immense profit of a few indi- viduals. He concurred with his colleague’s remarks as to the electric road in Omaha and declared his belief that the best system street railways was tho electric system. Congress will give the right of way for the overhead electric system in the suburbs of the city, but not in that portion of the eity thickly populated, as it distigures the streets. A CONSERVATIVE ESTIMATE, 1 asked one of the Nebraska senators today for a list of the candidates for the position of ussistant United States attorney for No- braska aud the reply was something like th “If you will got a directory of the lawyers in Nebraska and check off about one third of the names you find you will come vory uear guessing the list. There are hun- dreds of aspirauts in the field and it would bo an injustice to them 1o give their nuwmes. ‘There 18 a wonderful amouat of excellent talent offered for the position and if the names of all who have been recommended were published in ‘Fue Bee they would, 1 be Liove, fill & column.” 1 got tho sume ‘reply from the state deiegation IKKIGATION SURVEYS, The senate committeo an appropriations nas agreed 1o recommend that an appropria- tion of 20,000 be made immediately avails ablo tor the purpose of making surveys in North and South Dakots and other arid and semi arid regio of the northwest and sotthiwest, to determine the proper location of artesian wells which are to be adonted as wimeans of irrigation. ‘Thesenate committen on irrieation has had two weotings shis week for the purpose of discussing the vari- aus Dropositions relating to irrigation and 1t has agreed to recommend & bill approvriat- ing $300,000 to be applied to tapping the artesian basiu im tho country wentioned. This special spprepriation for artesian wells i outside of the geueral irrigation proposi- tioa which is before the scuate and does not relate to the basin und other irrigation projects which have been suggested by meombers of the geological survey and men in covgress. CONGEM'S PURE ¥OOD BiL A subcommilteo of the house committeo on agriculture today reported to the full commitiee favorably the bill of Conger of Towa “defining lard aad imposiug & tax upon wnd regulating the manufacture and sale and importation und exportation thereof.’’ 'Ihe Bill proposes to tax compound lurd the same o8 pleomargarine, sud 10 place it under simi- lar inspection by the internal revenue law. It is understood that the full committee. wiil report in favor of the bill and send it to the house next week. Chairman Paddock of the scnate committod on agriculture saw that no such specitlo lezislation will be reported from his committee. He is in favor of pure food, but he says that the question of adul- teration Is 100 extonsive to treat specifically item by item, and that there must be a gen- eral bill upon the subject dealing with all adulterated food articles alike. Such a moeasure already been referred to a sub- committea of which he is the chairmun, and 18 now under discussion with prespects of a fuvorable report at any day OPPOSE IDAIO'S ADMISSION. ‘The minority report of the committco on territories opposes Idaho's admission on the ground that the tost oath clause is a dis- franchisiog clause, Springer and Mansur sign this precious document, which will carry little weight among reasonable men of their party. The poliey of the republican majority will be to admit all territories inde pendent of their_ assumed political com- plexion as soon as they can show th it noss for statehood. Both \Wyoming and Idaho will receive the full party vote, at least on this basis, and for this reason the honse and scnate committes have agreed upon o favorable report on Mayor Kiesel's bill to increase the borrowing power of Ogden. SALT LAKE'S APPROPRIATIO ‘The house committee on public grounds and buildings had today the Salt Lake building bill undor discussion, Senator Pad- dock and Delogato Cain did lively button- holing among the members of the committee in the endeavor to secure @ report for the fuil amount carricd in the senate bill. The sub-committee, however, stated that under the rules of the committee, taking postoftice aad 1nte enue receints (nto consid- cration, 1 _felt unable to report a larger sum than $230,000, which amount will be fixed by the house bill. It was istimated, however, that in a conference comnittee the house would probably recede somewhat from its position. ‘Ihe house committee on public buildings today considered u memorial from Salt Lake urging that the site and property of the industrial howe at Salt Lake be wrned over to the government for use as a site for the federal building. Ex-Marshal Shauxhnessy is ere in advocacy of this scheme, 'khe argumont used is that the ifi- stitution is of littlo practical use and that economy would dictate its conversion for the use suggested. Delegate Cain is opposed to the change on tho ground that the site is not central and that the abolition of the home would be a gross breach of faith. Senators Edmunas and Paddock will oppose the scheme as expocted. MISCELLANEOUS, Representative Baker of New York, chair- man of the committee on commerce, has pre- pared ana will soon 1ntroduce in the house o bill of interest to railroad men and shippers. It is amendatory of the interstate commerce law and provides that charges against com- mon carriers muy be investigated by notaries public and the testimony so taken forwarded to the ingerstate commerca commission. The bill s in the interest of economy and expedi- tion. As the law now stanas the commission is obliged to dispatch a membor or niembers to the place where the charges are made to invesugato them, These are frequentiy points hundreds, and sometimes a thousand miles distant, and the cost involved is con- siderable and the delays, always vexatious, are occasionally so greav as to frustrate the real object of the examination. A postoftice has beon established at Luella, Sheridan county, and Lus M. Kella a pointed postmistress; also an ofice at Jess, Sheridan county, and Lula Joy appointed postmistress, Senntor Maoderson reported committce on printing today with a fa ble recommendation the resolution intro duced by Sevator Paddock yesterday pro- viding for the printing of 6,000 copies of the special consular report on the beet suzur in- dustry in Bohemia.

THE OMAHA DAILY BREE: SATURDAY, ! THE VANQUISHER OF KILRAIN An Interesting Talk With Corbett on Pugilistic Matters, ON HIS WAY TO SEE THE EAST. s Esti- Mo- A Gentl mate maniy FProfessor. of Rilrain, Sullivan, Auliffe and the Other Big Ones, Corbert on Fights and Fighters, J. J, Corbett, the big San Francisco boxing professor, who recently polished off Jake Kilrain at New Orleans 1 such handsonie style, was in the ci several hours yester- aay atternoon, the guest of Jack Weod. Cor- bett is en route to New York, where he s to become the fistic star of a combination to be put on the road by Mike Donovan. Heisn powerful, big fellow, with keen blue eyes and a complexion like & school girl's, and whilo hie looks to the connosseur every fuch the fighter that ho is, ho would be taken only for a geutleman of elegant lcisure by every casual obscrver who should happen to meet him. Mr. Corbett called at ofice wad spent an hour in pleasant converse with the writer, He was stvlishly attired in a black Prince Albert coat and veat, with white and black striped trousers and an elegant fawn-eolored over - e He wore a late Dunlap and buff col- ored kids. It 18 at once pataut to those who meet him that Corbett is out of the ordinary run of pugiists. He is a fairly well edo- cated man and bas been reared amidst cul- tured surroundings, Ho spent soveral yeurs as & bank clerk und several more in an insurance office. He is a good conversa- tionatist and his language is free from that obnoxious slang, and his air deveid of ali the swaggor piled on by the professional knocker out. ““‘What do you think of Kilrain?" he was asked. “Well,” said he, vausivg a moment, *“Jake is a clever big fellow, but horribly over- rated, and how he ever made such a long stay with Sullivan is, something beyond my comprehension, as I found him such an easy mark. You see, Kilrain looks upon a draw as practically a victory. His record shows this, for, with the exception of his battle with Jack Ashton and - Vaquelin, the New Orleans novice, nearly all his fights have been draws. He is asplendid ring tactician, anadept in dodging, slipping down and running away from _punishment, but he is a tremendous ways off from a hard hitter.”! “And John L., whatis your opinion of him 1 “I'bat he is the greatest man who ever stepped into the ring—the only bonasfide phenomenon the P. K. has ever . produced, cither in theso modern timnes or in the days of old English history. If he should ever meet Kilrain again it is dollars to pennies he whips him ia half a dozen rounds.” “*How about Joe McAuliffe, will you meet him “Well, not for some time yet, at any rate, You see, I'm not posing as o fighter. [tried for months to get on a match ~with Jog, but he wouldu't have it. Whea [ was n Port- Jand some weeks ago sparriag_at “Senator’ Morgan’s pavilion Matt Dee offered to guar- antec MeAulffe 1500 if he would come up and mect me. But he declined. Now he is sore beenuse he thinks thut 1 have robbed him of his laurels on the coast by whipping Jake Kilrain, He is a big, thick-headed farmer, and that's all you can’ mako out of him, If 1 consent to meet him iv will be at a ume of my own chioosing. 1 do not care to become a professional fighter.

Thisis certainly the finest newspaper building I was ever in, and we have 8owmo great ones in 'Erisco, 100, 1 hopo we will be booked to exhibit here!” “Will vack McAuliffe whip Carroll on the 9th of this monih ! I think he will.”” Corbett's record 18 a fine one. When but eighteen yoars of ago ho boxed an eight- round driw with Juck Burk, the Irish lad. He next whinped Mike Breanan, knocking him out in three rounds. 1t togk McAuliffe forty-nine rounds to do Breanan. Corbett next bested Frank Glover ine-four rounds, then Jon Donaldson i four, and stopped Prof. William Miller in six and Captain Daly in two. His greatest fight, how- ever, wns wilh Joo Chomisky. It was' a bare-knuckle fight, and he won in two rounds. He afterwards bested him twico with gloves. ‘Ihe fourth meet be- tween them was stopped by the sheriff in the tifth round. On this occasion the veferee ordered the men to meet again within a week and setclo the question of superiority. This they did, Corbett winning in tho twenty-fourth round.

A Pagitistic Farce. An alleged prize fight took place at Ger- mania hall, South Omaha, last evening, be- tween Dan Daly of Bangor, Me,, and Dick unro, a soldier from the Fort. ‘Ihe affair was down on the bills as a fifteen round con- test for a purso of 50, but 50 cents would lave been too much. The men wero feathor- weights in avoirdupois and everything cise. Tho next time Munro goes into a fight he shouldu't forget his Springficld rifle, for he couldn’t make a dent in a roll of butter with his fists. Dalvis a trifle better. The two men went through a dozen rounds, when Munro, 1n maline a lead for Daly, struck the towel in his secona’s hands and spraned his wrist. Of course that settled it, and 1y was declared the vietor, Lofeveey' Amalgamation. The Lofevre Gun club met last night.

TELLER DEFENDS BLAIR'S BILL, Kducate the Nogro and Save the Re- public, the Burden of His Ko- marks—General Fremont! Retirement, House, WAsHINGTON, March 14.—Mr, Henderson of Iowa presented for reference the resolu- tion of the general assembly of lIowa favor- ing such legislation in regard to car coupling as will protect the life and limbs of ruilway employos, Mr. Perkins of Kansas stated that an erroneous idea had gone out that according to the provisions of the Oklahoma bill passed yesterday the Cherokee outlet had been declared open to settlement under the homestead law. The statement should have been mado that the public land strip—not the Cherokee ovtlot—hbad been opened for settiement, The Cherokee outlet, he said, was embraced within the limits of the new territory, but was not opeu to settlement under the homastead law. ' he house then .went into committee of the whole on the private calondar. ‘The bill autnorizing the president to retire General I'remont with the rank of major general was taken up. Mr. Kilgore offored an amenament for the retirement of General IFremont with the rank of brigadier general. After abrief dis. cussion in Messrs. Mansur, Vandever and Banks eulogized the services of General Fremont, Mr. Kilgore's amendment was re- jected aud the bill aid aside with favorablo recommevdation. The bill was subsequent reported.to the house, but no final action was taken and the house took a recess, The usual F'riday evening routine ia the house was enlivencd toniglht by tho discus~ sion of o bill granting a pension of 840 a month to Fravcis Dewming of Michigan on the ground of blindness. This is one of the bills vetoed by President Cleveland. The discussion _was partoipated 1o by Messrs. Stone of Missourl, Kilgore of Texts and Lano of Iilinois. Finally this bill and one other were reported from the committee of the whole to the house, but before action was taken Mr. Breckinridge of Kentucky moved an adjournment, Mr. Perkins protested vigorously, but the hour of 1t having arrived, the house ad- journed, Senate, ‘WasnixaToy, March 14.—In the senate to- day among the bills reported from the com- mittee and placed on the calendar were the foliowing: Appropriating £5,000 for a pub- lic building at Aurora, [ll.; authorizing the construction of & bridge across the St. Louis river between Minnesota and Wiscousin. Mr. Hale from the committee on appropria- tions reported the urgency deficiency bill and said he would call it up for action next Monday. Mr. Blair's educational bill was then taken up as unfinished business, ana Mr. Teller spoie in support of it. Speaking of the race problem he said ho did notadinit the problem was 80 great that it might not be solved be- cause 1t he did he should dispair of the re- public. If the southern people and the nogrovs could not live tozether in u etate of political equality and political harmony thero was an end of republican government in one-third at least of the area of the United States. He had no key to the solution, but he believed education might in some respects helo to solve it. if the colored people were educated the chances would be better that the races would live together on botter terms. Ignorauce and vice went hand in hand. If the south ulone were able and wili- ing to try to educate the colored race the people of tke north would not complai, but if the south lacked either the desire or tho ability it was right and proper that the north should come to its aid. Mr. George said that if the senators on both sides of the chamber were to bring to the solution of the question, if its slution wore possible, the charity and kindness and good feeling exnibited by the senator from Colorado a good deal of trouble would be removed. I'ne bill then went over without action. Mr. Call gave notice that he would on Monday move to modify certain rules as to executive sessions, the object of the motion being to allow the nominations of Messrs Swayne and Strivling, as judge nad district attorney for the northeen disirict of Florida, to be considered in open executive session.

Ho then pronounced a eulogp on the dead member, He referred to many similar o casions on which the senate had been asked to oxpress its sympathy at tho present session, mentioning the death of Cox, the brilliant orator, and of Kelly, the great ad- vocate of protection and Auierican industry and labor. Healso named Mr. Nutting of New York, Mr. Laird of Nebraska and Mr, Gay of Louisiana, After appropriate remarks by Messrs. ‘Vest, Hale and Jones of Arkansas, the sen- ate, as a further mark of respect, adjourned until Monday. i S Coming After Zoe Alcon.

Thrce months ago Governor Mollette sent out ports of the suffering in a number of the counties in the state, but these reports were subsequently contradicted, aftorwards re- asserted and recontradicted, until no one secmed to know whether thero really was any destitution in the stato or not. As a con- sequence the movement in Omaba to send a train load of provisions, grain, ote., was allowed to drop. On the 2Ist of February, however, tho legislature of Soutn Dakota passed o resol tion reciting the fact that owiog to the se. vere drouth a number of farmers were in great need of sced grain of all kinds to seed their land tha comiug spring. The constitu tion of the state forbids the issuing of bonds by towuships, counties or state for the velief of such destitution, and the legislature therefore resolved to appeal to tho mors prosperous sections of their own state and alsu to the large cities” directly interested in South Dakota’s welfare to contribute aid, appointing Governor Mellette a committee 1o carry out the intent of tho resolution and to appoint an executive committeo of five citizens of the state to ist him in the dis tribution of all moneys and other supplies received. The governor has issued an appeal cmbody - ing the resolution above referred to, und stating that thousands of the best farmars of the atate have been rendered destitute. ‘I'hey have been furnished md during the winter, but are now iu need of grain to sced their lands in order to produce a crop. He sta‘os that a few counties are entirely desti tute of seed and food and a number of other: arae partially so. The governor guarantces that every cent contributed will be expended for the pur- chuse of grain without calling for cxpenses of arty kind.
