A num- ber of lagies occupied the boxes and mani- fosted much interest in the proceodings. As s00n as President Thomas had ealled the congress to ordor, W. N.

Tho convention then got down to business Ju an attewpt to locate the place for holding the next cc Senator McGinnis presented the name of Holena and stated that the members would be received with the usual western hospital- I o name of Salt Lake C sented. A momber raised the point that the discus- sion was out of order, as the convention vo be held in New Orleans next February would seloct the place. Governor Adams of Colorado thought that 1f the two conresses should consolidate tho selection of a place for holdiag the next ses- s100 would be premature. A wotion to lay the whole matter on table prevailed. Mr. Nason stated that although Mr. A. P, Hopkius of Omaha was npt a member of the congress ha would like to address tho body upon the silver question when it cawe up for discussion. Mr. Hopkins was deciared a member of the congress, and a resolution was adopted to allow parties thirty miuutes in opening and closing the debate. All otters to be ullowed ten minutes each. v 1 speedily as ¥ Was also pre- the Hubbard on Harbors. The debate on the .me‘x havbor question was opened by Governor Hubbard of Ho was loudiy applauded by s he mounted the platform. He said that vot only Texas, but tho, whole west, was deeply interested in the question. He con- ratulated the west upon the offorts that had Beon put forth, The time was when Texas bowed on bended knee for tho crumbs that fell from the rich man’s table, but Texas had become a giant, and instead of begging, de- manded recognition. In an eloquont manner be detailed the history of the deep- harbor movement. The government was bound to protect and open the great seaports, but it bad wuot been done. Tho war was over and Texas worked along under the great white banner of peace with the other states of the union, He thanked the men of the west, from the Mississippl tu the Golden Gate, for theirefforts in securing au appropriation to open a deep barbor at Galveston. "The great question, so far as the beginning was conoerned, was settied. There was no doubt but that twenty-tive or thirty feet of vater would be obtained at Galvesion. Sho would get it, and it was not the idea of the imist. [t was abeautiful citizenship tLat fivod there and shipped more than Balf & million bales of cotton over the seas.

On tho vars whero only ten years ago the water was only five feot doep, Water nOW soventeen auc one- half feet was found, Ho ridiculed the idea of the government taking caro of the work. The government would do notbing of the kind until the people had taken nold of the matter. Velasco was not the only port on the -Guif of Mexico whora deop water could be ob- taiued. In time Sabine Pass and Aransas Pass would bave deep barbors. The whole world could go aiid see Velasco and see what had and what would be done. The work bad been accomplished by the push and pluck of western men. (L had been by the same class of wen who had built & §3,000,000 capitol bullding for Texas and had been pald in Toxas lands.

The men who spant one-balf the any sitting in the shade smoking Span- ish cigarottes had been crowded out, while the northern men with pluck and enterprise had taken their places.

Ho said I am thoroughly reconstructed, T was a rebel brigadier,” as they cailed them, but what I long to nost of ail I that both north and south should forget the pastin their generous rivalry for succoss in the fu- ure Saw Omaha from Carringes. A littie after 2 o'clock _yesterday afternoon the delegates, accompanied by a number of prominent citizens of Omaha, tock car- at the Board of Trade building sna started out to do the town on wheels. The route of the drive took the visitors around past Creighton college, out Farnam street to Thirty-seventh avenue and thence south and ecast to Hanscom park. The party then turned toward the heart of the city and hed Sixteenth street just east of Hoyd's Then, turning to the south, the sion of carringes crossed the viaduct, tarned east on Williams street and whirled up around Brownell hall. At twenty minutes after 4 o'clock the carriages halted in front of the Grand opera house and the drive was over. The visitors were highly pleased with what they saw of Omaha. Soon after the congress was called to order for the afternoon session Colonel Gresham of Texas was introduced and took up the discussion of the deep water problem. He held that the United States engineers had found that the most favorable point for a deep water barbor on the Gulf of Mexico, from a natural standpoint, was Sabive Pass, Tex., but he said other speakers had stated that the government engineers had recom- mended three points as suitable for deep water haroors. Before Colonel Gresham had gotten really into the subject, Dr. George L. Miller of Ne- braska arose aud ssked permission to ask him & question. Colonel Gresham said he would answer it to the best of bis ability Dr. Miller then asked the speaker if there was anything in the way of establishing & commercial trafiic between Europe and the southern ports, proviaing that deep water harbors could be provided along the shores of Texas. In short, could vessels carrying merchandise away {rom these gulf ports to European countries find cargoes of gooas for the return trip to these southern ports! Colonel Gresham said that a profitable traffic could be_established just as soon as deep water harbors had been provided and the great lines of steamships could find ac- commodations there. The establishment of these southern poris and centers of com- merce would, the speaker believed, encour- age the building up of an American merchant marine, American ships would not be classed as “vramps” upon the high seas, as most of them were at present, but American ships d, 1n the near futire, become a very im- portant factor in the merchant narine opera- tious of the entire world. Colonel Gresham thought that Governor Hubbard had not ‘measured the water at Velasco with any degree of accuracy. Gov- ernor Hubbard had said upon the floor of this congress that Velasco had seventeen feet of water, but Colonel Gresham said he would rather take the measurcment made by a sailor than that reported by Uovernor Hub- bard, ‘Phie speaker then took up the shipping in- terests represented at the Galveston port. He said that one company had already estab- lished a line of vesscls between Galveston and Nicarauga that was taking a large share of tho commerce between those ports. In shipping bananas this line of steamers had almost captured the entire trade between tho two ports. This was a Gulveston enterpris and it showed what might be done by American capital if the facilities were en- larged. Tho speaker then explained that the work upon the Galveston harbor had been delayed very much by the contractors upon one e: cuso and another, but before another year had gone the people of Galveston hoped to soe the work pushed forward to such a point hteen or twenty feet of in the Galveston harbor. and Rail Freight Compared. . A. Thompson, of Minuesota then addressod the congress upon the subject of water ways. He said that oneof the chief clements in the prosperity of the count was ample and spoedy facilities for reachin the markets of the world with the produce of the land aud for receiving in return thoso things that the people have to buy froni for- eign countries, Thoe speaker then mado a comparison of the water and rail freight rates and showed that water rates had de- creased almost as rapidly as rates by rail. He held that tho facilities by water could be improvea just as much as the facilities by rail, but the sub- ject had not been given so much attention, Ou the Erie canal the cost of shipping was only half as much as it w upon the most thoroughly equipped railroad in the land experionced railway president had re y said that the roads were not through, by any means, with water way competition, even of the canal charactor. When it came to deep water transportation, tho speaker said it cost tweaty-six times s much by rail as it did by steamship upon the Iakes. The best steamships on the great lakes make better time than the averngo freight trains on the best railways. Such steamers as the E. C. Pope made an average of sixteen miles an hour from Detroit to Buffalo, while the freight trains made an_average of only about ten miles an hour. Thus the steamships on the great lakos not ouly carried freight for one twenty-sixth part of the amount charged by rall, but they also carried the merchandise moro speedily than the railways did. He showed that railroad rates were kopt in Flavoring Extracts NATURAL FRUIT FLAVORS.

The spoaker cafled the attention of the assembly | to a map of the United States across which ho bad threo ribbons drawn show- ing the relative distances of western points ~ from Chieago, Duluth and Galveston. He astonished somo of the gen- tlemen by showing from the map that Den- ver was as close to Duluth as to Galveston and 125 miles nearer Duluth than Chicago, The point upon the map equidistant from | Duluth, Chicago and Galveston was found west of the center of the state of Kansas. . The speaker then turned o the shipping intorests of Duluth, and said that the aggre- gate tonnage that passed through the Sault canal last year excoeded the tonnags that passed th.oough the Suez canal by ov 00,000 tons, Tao tonnage that passed through the Detroit river last year exceeded the tonnage of Liverpool and London by over 8,000,000 tons. | Applause. | Mr. Thompson said he did not wish to be understood as beiug opposed to the opening up of the water ways to the soutb, He wanted to seo water ways opened wherever they could be opened. He wished partic- ularly to show the great necessity and the | practicability of opening up great water ways from the great lukes to the Atlantic n. Ho said the English nments would soon have " ce canals completed and have a water pable of accommodating ships that fourteen feot of water. The would then command the great carrying trade of the greal lakes. This would not only permit Britain to coutrol the commerce of the but it would also give that nation an oppor- tunity if war should e to send her war ships right into the in: by way of the great lakes, and lay s the cities of Buffalo, Cleveland, Chic Milwaukee other great cities. Thompson it would pay the United States to establish a waterway from the great lakes through its own territory to the Atlantic seaboard for the accommoda- tion of ships drawing twenty foet of water, If tais were done, tho speaker the United States would retain control of the commerce of the great lak: and would also be n shape to defend the great cities aloug the lakes with her war ships in case a conflict should arise between the United States and Great Britain, Mr. Thompson was heartily applauded at the close, British Resolutions of Congratulation. A resolution urging the government to proceed with the improvement of the harbor at Gaiveston was tnen presented and adopted. A twin resolution was then presented con- gratulating the people ot Velasco, Tex., upon the statement made by the delogates from Texas that there was seventoen feet of wi in the harbor at the mouth of the Br: niver, near Velasco. ernor Fishbach of Arkansas was op- posed to the resolution because ho held tnat it was an advertising scheme. Governor Hubbard of Texas roplied to Governor Fishbach in a ringing speech that Aeemed to cal conviction to the minds of the delegates. ~ Governor Hubbard said the but there was something else in it that the congress certainly would recoznize. It was a recognition of the encouraging state- ment that Velasco had by the enterprise of her citizens secured seventeen feet of water. 1t did not cost the congress & cent, neither did it compromise the assembly to congratu- late the people of Velasco upon their good fortune and upon their enterprise in improv- ing the natural harbor at the mouth of the Brazos river. - Mr. Bushnell of Nebraska was opposed to the resolution because he claimed that it was intended to boom private enterprise. He wanted to seo the congress keep clear of all advertising sclremes, Mr. Crawford of Velasco took the floor ana defended the resolution. He read the follow- ing letter from Secretary Foster to show that Velasco had aeep water: TrEASURY [ 5 iy 7, ] .

CHARLES FOSTER, Seeretary. Mr. Ball of Missouri, arose and said that he had never attended u convention where the delegates seemed to want so much water, [Applause.| He was in favor of the Velasco resolution and for every other step that would encourage the opening up of new water ways to the open sea board. He didn’t care 1f soine of these towns did receive some valuable advertising just so the whole coun- try received the benefit of cheaper transpor- tation. The aiscussion was then discontinued and the congress voted upon_the resolution con- gratulating Velasco. The resolution was adopted with but very little opposition.
