Every effort of “Fighting Bob” Evans to make his voice heard above the clamor of the grotesque and declamatory skipper was fruitless. He howled back at the Canadian until he was hoarse, and then suddenly stooping over picked up a huge picce of blub ber from the deck, of the consistency and pastiness of a Jjelly fish, swung it around sharply, landing 1t plump upon the wiskere ace of the deflant Canadian, and knocked him and his enthusiasm and flag clean over the bulwarks and into the sea.

The most damaging plece of testimony against the | was that given to the Hoatner com- | mittee by Mr. Moore, the judge’s brother-in- | law. It consisted of two letters, (1) from the general manager of the railroad to une of the counsel in St. Paul; (2), the counsel's letter, transmitting the general manager's lotter' to the counsel in Milwaukee. They were given to Mr. Moore, and, according to the testimony, were given to Judge Jenkin who read them, and the next day issued the notorious second injunction. The general manager, in his letter, tells of his appointed mecting with the employes of the road, sct for next day, and says that he postponed the meeting for twenty-four hours. He then goes on to say that if the leaders should order the men to strike it would cripple the road, for the men's places could not be filled in loss than fifteen days. An_injunction would prevent them from or dering the strike, and the next day the injunction was fssued. AN this will doubt less appear in the report and the judiciary mmittee will hardly whitewash Jud; Jenkins on the strength of it. It is certain that some pretty harsh things and severe conclusions wiil be drawn in the debate on the floor.

The investigation by the house committee Oply the on Pacific roads has brought out the fact that all parties in interest are gradually merging toward a common ground of settle- ment, although details. The government's proposition has already been completed by Attorney General Olney and is being printed for the use of the con- gressional committee next Friday. It was in part drawn by ex-Governor Hoadley. It s preceded, also, by conferences at the De- partment of Justice between representatives of the government and the committee of anization of the Union Pacific railroad. overnor Hoadley will appear before this committee Friday to explain the merits of the settlement as proposed by the govern- ment. Following this, on Tuesday next, the Union Pacific committee on reorganization will pre- sent its plan of settlement. Thus the gov- ernment’s plans and the railroads’ plan will be side by side for comparison. The vast interests involved in the trans- action have interested men of more con- spicuous note than those usually before con- gress. The Union Pacific committee on re- organization has Senator Bric its hea and is represented before the committee by Francls L. Stctson of New York, the former law partner of President Cleveland.

The normal strength of the watch forces of the treasury is seventy men, divided into two rellefs, and, in addition to two or three dozen revolvers, there have always been thirty-five carbines in the racks in the office of the captain of the watch, sufficient to supply one to each watchman' on duty.
