Ko One Yet Chosen to Be United States Dis- trict Attorney for Nebraska. $21D TO LIE BETWEEN SAWYER AND OGDEN Omann's Ex-dudge Hes the Inside Track According to Current Report at the Cupiinl—dim MeSuane Not Yet Named. x Bruzar or Tur Bee, ) 3 FOURTERNTI! STREET, WasnrvaTox, Jn. B8, | The friends of Hon. A. J. Sawyer of Lin- eoin for twos or thr s been pour fng telegrams into Washington in favor of hum for the United Stat trict attorney- ship. Iudications are that if Judge Charles Orden of Omaha is not appo strict attorney the position will go to a dark horse, probably Sawyer, who has placed no spplication on file. Sawyer is a warm per- sonul friend of Seer rion and it is believed tuat the latter has recommended Lim for upp: t Gearge E. and has been here nave intment. Pritchard of Omaha is here now or some days working up the application Judge Ogden. He has scen the president twice in behalf of Ogden and believes his candidate is reasonably sure of the office. Judze Ogden hus some strong backing outside his own state, Senstors of Maryland and Wh te of Louis- g nended ry Carlisle was so busy today with depurtmental affuirs that be did not have i 1o the attention of the presi- e Omuhn surveyorship of customs, i o and 1 101 ns was expocved.

Chairman Wilson said this morning that he hoped tobe uble tohold out another en days, which would wind up the tariff bill in the house, but acknowledged that he would probably hiave to turn the bill over to one of his colleagues on the commitiee and B0 away. Knocked Out the sugar Bounty. ways and meass committee hus been downed by the free trade democrats in the house. The extremisis, led by Tom Johuson of Ohio, ruled the roost once more and struck out of the sugar schedule in the Wilson bill the bounty clause. Tne commit- tee had ngreed 1o extinguish the McKinley bounty gradually, wiping it out in eight years, taking off an eighth of & cent per pound an- nually, giving an average of 1 cent per pound for u period of eight years. The iree traders struck out all of the bounty ut a fell swoop by & three-fourths majority. Then they struck out all of the duty on refined sugar. The McKinley law pluces a duty of bhalf a cent per pound on refined sugsr and the Wilson bill reduces it 1o a fourth of a cent. As the bill stands tonight it provides o duty on the reficed sugar. A number of republicans voted for tuis second amend- went, determmed that if the producer could Dot get his bounty the retiner should haveno duty. Then the house adopted, or attempted to adopt, a number of amendments, one piacing 1 cent per pound on raw sugar, but the pro- ceedings became 80 confused Lbat no bead or tail could be found, and adjournment was taken 80 as 1o Kive timeto disentangle the parlismentary skem. Defenged Nebraska's Interests. All of the three republicans from Ne- brasks spoke in favor of muintaiuing the present rate of bounty, and finully voted for the work of the committee. Mr. Bryan gave the extinguishment plan of the committee Thalf-hearted support, but declared that any bounty was unconstitutional. Mr. Mercer's spoech atiracted a great deal of atlention. 1t was short but to the poiut. ++Of all the good features of the McKinley bill that which the people of Nebraska most appreciate,” be smid, “is that which made possible two great sugar boet planis in Ne- braska. Toduy tbe people of Omaha are forming an association in the countics of ‘Washington, Sarpy and Douglas to encour- age another plant 1o cost §1,000,000. Farm 1ands in the regions around the factories have risen in value and today the people of Lincoln, our capital city, are asking for a beet sugar factory and hope soon to have one. The factory at Norfolk cost 8400.000 snd the one at Grand Island $450,000,and that at Omaha is expected 1o cost & million. The people of Nebraska are interested in beet sugar manufacture, poth farmers ana resi- dents of the cities. Mr. Bryan states that ress has mo right to enuct legislation ‘hinding beyond one congress. Why, in the tariff of 1838 it was specially provided vhat the tarifl law of 1832, relating to the duty on sugar. shouid remain 1n force until 1542, and the circuit court of appeals had a case before it involving that very question and decided that it was constitutiobal. The McKinley law was a solemu contract, and had 1t not been for that legislation we would not now have capital on the prairies of Nebraska and mullions more soeking ic vestment.” Chunges in Curlisie’s Fluns. Secretary Cuxlisle has decided not to make ublic the offers he receives daily for the onds. At first it was his intention o issue a bulletin duily s to the bids received. thinking that the publication would stumu- late the bidding and set the prices up, but his experience during the 1ast two days has been such as to cause him to change his mind. There has not been any avidity shown to take the bonds, and the fizures offered are 0 small, compared with his originul ideas, that after consultation with the treasury of- fictuls be has-concluded not to publish any of the offers, giving us his reason that the pub- lication of the bids wouid have a tem- dency to fix the price. Mr. Carlisle hus un ides tuat he will be able to dispose of most of the bondsat a rate of premium reaching over $1.23, sud thus make it a 2y per cent bond. The develop- Wents huve somewhat staken his faith, and treasury offcials say that 1f Mr. Carlisie re- ceives any bids ut §1.20 he will be luck) The ides that theso bonds would be taken by the people and it would become a popular loan is also exploded, because, as au ofticial said, this is an emergency loan, nnd the secretary is obliged 10 get as much out of it as possible. The people will not be able to bid large premiums for the bonds, aud when they ure opened and the seoretary finds that a bidder has offered & prewium over .17 for almost or all of the issue be wil be obliged 10 mccept this offer, bocuuse he can- not afford to wait for the money und divide the issue pro rata among hundreds of §50 ana $100 bids. It looks now as if the bonds will ks %0 baukers and bond senate Not Tssuod Too Soon. ‘Lhe secretary finds that he has not issued his call for bids & day 100 soon, and this will influence him iu acoepling the large offers rather than dividing it up jiro rata, as he had anticipated ernment for the first half of Januury have been lumentably small: up 10 toduy the re- amounted 1o §14.585,000, and of this 706,000 was from customs. uary the customs receipts alone amounted to over ¥1.000,000 for ks period, while the total receipts for January weut over &5, 000,- 000. The treasury officiuls estimate thut the cusioms receints for tnis month will not excoed $12.000.00, and thus there will be u deficioncy of nearly $10,000,000 from this source alone for the single month. This is the largest decrease in any mouth during the present sdministration. Expenses are dajly woreusing, sud it is pregioted that Mr. Carlisle will find himsell short agais & very few wocks ufler he bas disposed of his entire issue of the forthoowing bona and that be will be obhiged to call upon con gress for power 10 issue & § par cent bond, #nd thut the New York bankers who are now holding back for this ewergency will uot be far wrong after all Hawall io the Houss. 1t Las boen proposed vy members of ibe be name of James MoShane did not go | The receipts of the gov- | Last Jan- | | not ready to preseut house, as ono tanrible form of exprossing approval of President Clevoland's Ha- waiian policy, 1o consider & joint resolution requesting the recall of Minister Willis.

Many Cases in the Supreme Court Waiting on the Appointment. WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.—While the personal feature of the vacancy in the supreme court interests the politicians most, it aoes not ap- proach ix importance the material interests affected by delay. Questions of constitu- uional law, upon the decision of which hang great property interssts, are being heid in abeyance untila full bench can pass upon them, and nuturally the litigants are im- patient under the enforced waiting which has been protracted beyond their expecta- tious by tue iong debate of the senate com- miitee over the Hornblower nomination and its final rejection, which has necessitated the seiection of & new candidate. There are now twenty-two cases on the aocket of the supreme court, some of which huve been sidetracked since the beginning of the October term, awaitiog the advent to the bench of a successor to Justice Blutch- ford. The list includes the most important cases of the term in which the hearings have been deferred st the suggestion of the court or the requestof the aiiorneys for their judgment by a full bench. Mostof them ninge upon interpretations of constitutional law on which it is essential that the opinions of every justice should be recorded. Rail- roa interests and vhe interstate commerce laws play s important pari. Other Cases Pending. Two patent cases, upon the decision of which large money interests are resting, are those of the Singer Manufacturing company, the sewing muchine house, againsi the June Manufacturing company and George P. Bent, parues sued for ellegod infringements upon some of the Singer pavents. Interesting questions pertaining to railroad land granis are involved in suits between the Northern Pacltic company and Montana suthorities, appealed from thesUnited States circuit court of Montana, wnd one broucht by the railroad company aguinst the auditor of FKicoder county, North Dakota. Ex- Attorney General Garlund is an attorney for the railrond in these cases, while in_ unother brought by Richard P. Parden of Montana against the Northern Pacific, William Wal- lace, jr., the son-in-law of Chief Justice Ful- ler, Governor Toole snd Mr. Garland are en- listed. The Interstate Commeroce commission has a suit sgaimst W. P. Brinson from the north- ern district of Tllmnois which will be pushed by Attorney Geueral Onley and ex-Senutor Edmunds of Vermont.

Mr. Huntington returned from Wash- ington yesterday snd the World says in regard to the assertion that Mrs. Sanford will bring suit against him, and the state- meut of his lawyer, Charles H.

Men well informed say that these facts are the result of Mr. H gton's Wash- ington trip, during which he transucted some heavy business on a very large scale. During the course of the interview Mr. Huntingion said in reference to the securi- ties of Senator Stanford, uow in the hands of the Pacific Improvement sompany: “I1 will explain thot once and for all. The Pacific Improvement company is a Califor- nia corporation. Senawor Stanford. as well s myself, held stock in it. At times money was needed 1o carry through schemes.
