bill at a caucus of republican
Senators held hvt night. In
order to give the Senators who
had voted against the old bill
an opportunity of returning to
the ranks a new bill was pre
sented to the caucus, shorter
and without some of the ob
jectionable features of the
lodge bill. Stories differ as to
the conclusion arrived at. Some
eay that it was decided to pass
the new bill in a few days pnd
others that no definite conclu

with nero domination having

The Tribune says :
"Beginning in Maryland, our

faithfully and graphically por
try their recent advancement.
The strides that have been
made in this part of the coun

wonderful testimony to the

was the hardest fate that had
befallen a civilized people in
modern times, for not only were
they impoverished and enfee-
blod, but the system social, I
po' it ical and commercial upon
which they had tuilded their
institutions, and from which
their habits aud methods were
drawn, had been destroyed.
They were not only obliged to
recover their industries, but to
adopt new method of conduct

and forces they had known for
a century and to substitute new

it is magnificent."

being the special order for this
hour it was taken up.
Mr. Grigsby filed a minority
report signed by himself and
Mr. Walser, and offered a sub
stitute for the bill. Tbe read
ing of the substitute occupied
forty minutes.
Mr. Grigsby gave notice that
if the substitute was not adopt
ed he should ofur various
amendments to the bill.
Mr. Walser said he favored a
commission wPh advisory pow
ers, but not a rate-fixing com
mission. Such a commission
would be unjust and unwise. In
a ma jority of the states that have
commissions they do noi have
rate-fixing powers. He thought
that one of the Commissioners
out to be a Republican.
Mr. Ay cock asked him if the
Republicans two years ago did
not, in caucus, declare against
all railroad commission bills?
Mr. Walser said that they
agreed not to vote for a rate-fix
ing commission. Me ana many
other Republ;can3 were here
pledged to vote for a commis
sion that would treat the rail
roads with fairness.
Mr. Butler asked him if the
railroads favored the substitute,
and if a raiftoad attorney did
not draw up the substitute?
Mr. Walser failed to answer
the question.
Mr. Aycock called the previ
ous question ana was sustained.
The substitute was lost.

are having their agents in the

The motion of Mr. Lucas was
lost.
Mr. Butler offered several
amendments from the commit
tee affecting some minor details
of the bill, which were adopt
ed. '
Mr Lucas offered an a inetid-:
ment to reduce the salaries of
commissioners. He argued that
salaries should be small.
Mr. Butler said his people fa
vored economy, but he could not
for a little cheap popularity,
jeopardize Ihe pucces of , the
great measure by fixing salaries
so low as to make it impossible
to obtain tue best talent. The
fact that times were hard was
ne of the causes that made the
people d e man i a commission
If it is a failure it would be dear
at any price, if it is a success it
would be cheap at ten times the
cost as named in the bill. It is
false econc my to grumble over a
few bundled dollars when there
aie. thoosaud and hundreds of
thousands at stake.
- Mr. Walser offered to amend
so that no more than two of the
comini-s'oneis shall belong to
the same political party.
Mr, Grigsby's amendment No.
2, is a substitute 'for section five
of the bill.
The amendmeut if adopted
would make the commission ad
visory instead of a late-Qxing
commission.
