DIRECT FROM WASHINGTON Benator Manderson and Congressman Meroor Come Home to Vote. BACK FROM THE SCENE OF BATTLE with the Know= They Are Well Flensed Omaha Poblic Bullding and Ing that the Democrats Are at Sen on Tariff lssues. Congressman sterday Benator Manderson and Mercer arrived from Washington y and will remain in Omaha for a couple of weeks, Senator Manderson procecded at once to his quarters at the Millard hotel, where hie was seen by a Bes reporter. The senator expressed himself as much gratified that the Omaha government building was now in o way to be pushed to completion There was no doubt, he said, that the con tract would soon be awarded to Mr. Drexel and that active operations on the superstructure of the building would be commenced s enrly in the spring as the weather would permit. It had required consideravle effort to get the figures of the stone men down to a point where the pink Colorado sandstone would come within the appropriation, but it had finally been accomphished and Or now assured of a building that would bo a credit at once 1o the government and to the city. ih reply to a query as to probable action on the tariff, ator Manderson said thatit was_entirely a-matter of conjecture. The silvér question had monopolized attention to almost the entire exclusion of other matters, and but little would be known as to the com- plexion of tho new tariff bill until it was revorted from the comur itteo. Congressman Mercer was found at his res- idence at 2811 Hickory street, where he was energetically engaged in maki presentable to his constituenc; journey. *Well, we had time down there,” remarked Mr. Mercer, as hie settled himselt into an ens) the senate scemed determined to kil the reve: bill by talking 1t to aeath when it was in perative for the business interests of the country that it should be passed immedi- ately if atall. Congri man Mercer's Talk. “On the tariff matter,” continued Mr. Mercer, the democrats are in a laughablo plight. They are almost absolutely without a leader and are hopelessly divided. Me- Millan, who would naturally take the lead, has a knife in his sleeve since he was ousted from the committee on rules in favor of Outhwaite, and Wilson, whilea capable man in many respects, lacks the faculty for con- trolling the dissenting factions of his party. Catchings of Mississippi, another of their leaders, cannot be heard twenty feet away, and much of his effectiveness is lost on that account. There is no unanimity of opinion among the democrats as to the course to be pursued in regard to the tariff. One man is willing to consent to the abolition of the tariff on everything but lumber, another wants the coal interests of his state pro- tected and some of the southern men de- mand that the tariff on sugar must not be meddled with. So it will be practically i possible for the ways and means committee to formulate u bill that will command any- thing like the unanimous supvort of their own party. The commitico meets in some secluded place v down in the basement so that no one is able to find out what it is doing. 1learned, however, on good authority . Bryan had succeeded in inducing ing of Michigan to consent to the re- 1of the tariff on lumber on the con- sideration that Bryan will vote to put every- hmng that is raised on & farm on the free st In_regard to the bridge toll controversy Mr. Mercer stated thut the Interstate Com- merce commission had devoted a good deal of time to the matter and bad collected statistics from all parties interested, includ- ing the railroads, Council Bluffs ana Omaha. He had a conference with Mr. McDill the day before he left Washington, when Mr. MeDill had stated that the commission had decided that Omaha would have to make a formal complaiut and the matter would then be adjudicated in the regular order. Ina matter of so much moment the commission did nov feel at liberty to proceed in any other way. In speaking of general politics, Mr. Mercer expressed himself as more than satisfied with tho outlook for republican supcess, The division of the democratio party on the tariff question was pie for the republicans, and they were making the most of it. The opinion was becoming eneral all over the country that the uncer- aiuty with regard to tariff legislation was at the bottom of the finarcial stringency, and it was making new converts for prote; tion every day. He had recently talked with a representative of the Louisville Courier-Journal, who had just returned fro: & tp over Ohio, and the newspaper man said that democratic chances in that state were hopeless. Democrats were presiding at republican meetings, and McKinley's m jority was liable to be something phe- nomenal. his long the dickens of a - A Ohuid Enjoys ‘The pleasant flavor, gentle action and sooth- ing effects of Syrup of Figs, when in need of a laxative, and if the father or mother be costive or bilious, the most gratifying re- sults follow its use; so that it is the best family rvemedy kuown, and every family should have a bottle on hand —_— Falconer is giving 20 per cent off on all his dress goods, silks, cloaks, capes, fackets and wraps.

THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 8 CLARKE COUNTY PRUNE LANDS, tern Capltalista Looking This Way— Representatives from Omaha Aere. Mr. D. H. Stearns was in Vancouver a couple of days last week. He brought with him a committee of people to whom he sold Clarke county fruit lands while in the east. They were more than pleased with the county and found everything as good or better than he represented. In the advertisements we have seen in eastern papers Mr. Stearns has represented the average yield of prune orchards in this county at $300 per acre per annum. This is certainly low enough. The crop this year is only a medium yield and the price is lower on account of the hard times than it ever was before, yet the following fig- ures will show what the crop has been this year: Fletcher & Sons harvested from twenty acres, on haif of which the trees are but four and five years old, 66 000 pounds, which they sold at 74 cents, an average of $257 per acre. A. W. Hidden got from 10 acres 20 tons worth £3,000, C. G. Shaw got from 12 acre tons worth $3,300, part of his trees being only five- slds. It the crop had been seperated as it was harvested from old or young trees the old trees would have shown up with a crop of $400 to the acre. We don't expect over $150 per acre from five-year-old trees, People to whom Mr. Stearns sells cultivated fruit land under his plan in Clarke county, Wash., make no mistake and will get property which will return them a dollar a y dollar it costs them.—Vancouver, Wash., Inde pendent, BIG PROFITS IN WASHINGTON.

We &till continue to receive inquiries from a great many quarters as to the status of the telephone patents, says Electricity, and while we wish to obligo our readers as far as possible by answering any questions on which information is obtainable, it is mani- festly impossible to authoritatively answer a number of inquiries which involve ques- tions that are as yet undecided by the United States supreme court;mnor can we undertake to invent or adapt a system of telephony which avoids infringing all ex- isting patents: yet it is not impossible soand will be 1 dificult on the expira of the Bell receiver patent next y In regard to establishing exc compete with systems alveady existing in different places ‘operating under the patents of the American Bell Telephone compuny, it is very doubtful if such an attempt wouid prove successful, as the established business would for many reasons have great advan- tages over its rival. From the nature of the pusiness there is hardly room for more than one telephone service in any city, us there would be naturally no connections permitted between the subscribers of the rival com- panics, & condition which would be as unsat- isfactory to the subscribers as the divided service would be tothe telephione companies. In a city without this service, where a new system is 1o be installed, the conditions are different. The only trouble in this case would be in anging the details of the ex- change so as o avoid infringements of patents on minor points, of which there are quite & number. For example, the switc! on the magrets for ringing up the central, which 18 normally closed by hanging the re- ceiving instrument on its forked handle, is patented, and without this switch would need to be manipulated. Many of the details of the central station switch boards are also patented i considerable work would be involved in arranging the de- tails of a system which would both secure an efticient service and avoid all infringe- ments on these patents. Concerning the maunfacture of telephone instruments there is less diffieulty in the W and for private lines there are no im- portint obstacles in the way of patents which have not aircady been overcome. Tt is well known that the art of telephony and the Blake transmitter are public prop- erty, and that the first pateut on the Bell receiver will shortly exvire. The [Edison patents and the Berliner patent relating to microphones with variable surface contact are still in force, and although the validity of the latter patent has been called into question, no decision on this point has been handed ‘down by the courts. The use of permament magnet in the transmitter is also patented,but this is not of much importanc us an electro-magnet may be used there with equally good effect. The variable con- wct microphone is also not an absolute essential, although it is undoubtedly the most convenieut device thatcan be adopted. This can be replaced, however, by a micro- phone in which the conductivity is varied by tho changes of density in the carbon or other material due the ing pressures, but with a fixed contact surfuce. This has been ac- complished in various ways, among others by the compression of a carbon spiral, As the matter stands now, telephones of the pattern At present used by the ell company cannot be gen- erally manufactured, but enough of thie patents on these instruments hive ex- pired to permit the free manufacture of vary serviceable and effective instruments for this purpose.
