That amena- msnt declares torfeitea lanas coier. minous with the portion or tne oas de branch not completed t at I the date of the passage of the pending bill.

Beck suggested that " if we were- to adopt the policy presented by Eustis' amendment, then it. should be op posed ! generally; so as to cover ail land grant roads, and- that the sub ject had better be considered by, the committee. - Eustis supported his amendment. He was in favor of dealing . witL all alike as far as cases were - parallel. Wherever a branch of. condition had not been satisfactorily: expended he would lorfeit tne land, -, Vance inqmired what hardship or injustice would be done if Congress asserted the rights of the people in this matter of land forfeiture! ' After an uvestigation - of railroad . land grants he had come to the conclusion that Coneress would be justified in resorting to every lawful method to forfeit unearned , lands. . Mr. Vance wished be could i prepare. - for this purpose, a bill as effective as the Yankee Scare Crow was &aid to have been. The scare crow was said to scare a" crow so effectively that it not only scared crows out of a corn field, but compelled them to bring oacE corn they baa stolen last year fLaughtar.T - . ' He inquired what was to happen in this country when all the public lands should be in, the hands of the railroad companies who would hold them at prices so high - that people couia not get mem. - 4 Teller defended the course of the Republican party as to.:, the purity ana patriotism ot its motive and con duct in relation to the public land He did not thmk it becoming in the Senator; from North Carolina to criti cise those land grants. ;, Those grants were maae oy men who acted with the best lights they had at the time The Senator from North Carolina and his friends were at that time fir arms against thegoverifrutnt of the United'! States.':: It was not strange th it men of those times were not as far sighted as some senators might now silpposa iney mignt nave peen, j.pere was tote strong purpose operutiugon Con gressmen at tne time these grants were made, which was ap to be for goiton now. nanjely; that induce meat had then been made to the peo-. pie of the great west to cast in their lot with other people not then friend Iy to the-government. - v t Vance remarked that, when in ans swer to an argument against a wafcte- rul and extravagant land policy, the Senator1 got up and said that, he (Vance) took part In the retellion, then Mr. Vance knew that the ; Lord bad delivered that Senator . into - his Vance's) hands. . Laughter 1 Teller replied that, from what he" understood the Senator .from North Carolina - was , rather ; an unwilling participant in mat rebellion at some times that he was Jiot, perhaps as energetic as some others, though he did participate in it. But Teller had aot referred to the rebellion for . the purpose of reflecting on any Senators, out.ro snow mat at mat time men were not . certain"; that they could maintain the integrity of the -empire. : - Hawley contrasted the condition of the wt-stern country before the - Pa cific roads were built and at the present, and said the building of those roads was a piece of statesman ship. It might perhaps have been well to fix a low maximum price, at which the lands should be sold, and a limit ti' the number of acres that might be held by one person, so as to avoid; great ; accumulations in one haqd.;-The railroads had, however,; under great difficulties; been such a blessing to the country that the gov ernment ought not to use against them the arguments of shy lock. The United States government ought to bea gentleman among governments. Logan held . opinions . similar to those of Hawley and opposed Eustis amendment. " Edmunds and Conger also opposed i Eustis' ' amendment, which was rejected yeas 12, nays Vm'Wyck offered an amendment repealing the clause of the granting act which made the right of way ex empt from taxation in the territories." He said that under all circumstances he thought the road should ' bear iU share of taxation.'

The House was On the eve of an attempt to reduce tariff taxes, and he thought this was an occasion upon -. wnicn ne should call the attention ot tne chair man of the committee on ways and moans and ; appropriations to :" the startling figures. - v Randall said that the figures were not a surprise to him ' They couid be in some degrees . accounted for. In the first place the increase this year over last year for pensions was $15,750,000. There was no man here; who 'was not willing to give this in crease estimated ;; to be necessary to nav oensions due to soldiers. An other case of increase', was the river and harbor bill;; which appropriated tl5.250.000.!mafcing an aggregate in crease of $3100,000. " He admitted that' the I figures .presented i by the gentleman from New York, might be correct, but : they were based upon the condition of appropriation bills at v this time,; when some of the bills had not passed the House, some were pending in the . Senate, and some were in Conference. He thought the gentleman's figures ? were too high. It was his, (Randall's,; judgment that the appropriation would . about equal the estimated revenues. He objected co the assumption .that the river and harbor bill would be ap proved at the highest figures.;; So far as he was able to see, there was a re- duction'm every one of s the annual appropriation bills reported J to : this house, whether they came from the appropriation committee or. from any committe, to- which appropria tion duties had been assigned, but he was led to admonish the House, and especially the Democratic side oi the House that it - ought to - follow closely the recommendation of every one of those committees, and to keep appropriations .down to the lowest point. - , The condition was not one of p prehension, but it was that compeIN ea ana.aemtnaea tne utmost caution, on the part of the Democratic side of tne House to see that not one ; un neessary dollar was appropriated in any one of the annual appropriation puis..

He denied that he bad been mistaken in his estimate of ex penditures and revenue The total estimated revenue- exclusive of the postal ; revenue, would amount to only $330,000,000, while the expendi tures inclusive of the postal expendi tures amount to $344,000,000. .

Nobody, however,' had any idea of danger. Shortly after 1 p. m. several persons began to consider thesitua tion threatening, but thp smoke was so dense that they found it impossible to direct tbeir steps to the exact loca tion of the source. Soon a stable near the Colonial Hotel was seen to be on nre.- The alarm was given but so skeptical were the people that they paid no attention for some time. The wind, by this time, bad increased to a gale,and fanned the flames to a mass of raging fire One of the first buildings .to go was MacCartney's drug store, followed by': the. office of the Vancouver : News. The flumes .shot across Abbott street with astons ishing rapidity, and almost before the people could realize it, the whole of the Westere portion of the .city was in a Diacze. . The excitement was in tense. : Water street was ; filled with a dense smoke, and - fly ing cinders. and the people - were hurrying, with what "cffeets they could -gather in - their haste to a place of safety.

All hone of saving any considerable amount of property, was now abandoned.- and each contented himself;, with hastily, putting togetner wnae ne could parry in his hands -without seriously, im pedmg his speed, 'and hurried frortf the spot. But even after leaving the' house the danger was ; not oyer, for every road had become . an avenue of fire. - Falling timbers and stumps on each side of the road glowed with fire .and proved as serious a menace to the - fugitives Xaa the burning houses of the doomed'eity. ' . During the confusion which prevailed, when the rowdies and roughs saw that every one was leaving, they entered the saloons, which: had been left nn.v tirely unprotected, and cohimenced annKing.

They were, of course, then already par tially intoxicated. .
