Their plan Is to hae the bill taken up

sion of routine morning business which
means that they d slre to absorb as
much of the morning hour which usu-
ally lasts until 2 o clock an possible
and cut out tho discussion of miscel-

Introduced hen u question Ilk the
tariff bill Is under discussion for the
purpose of obtaining delay They riay
not succeed In Kettlns such an order
ns this but the announcement of the
purpose of making an effort In that dl
lectlon la an Indication of this Inten
Hon of crowding the debate along as
rapidly as poselbly can be done The
Democratic members of tho finance
commltttee will alio probably under-
take to extend the dally sessions until
6 oclock which will mrst likely be
resisted b > the Republicans
Great Interest Is ftlt In Senator Hills
speech which Is announced for tomoi
r6w It Is known from former utter-
ances that he Is opposed to the Income
tax and that while the but was In
committee he nought to hae many
changes made In the schedules and
objected to tho wholesale adoption of
tho ad alorem sj stem that Indeed
at that time tho bill as a whole found
ery little faor In his eyes It Is not
believed that he has changed hid mind
but he has been ery reticent on the
subject since the time of the three
da > s caucus Whether Mr lit It shall
spook tomorrow in accordance vylth his
announcement will depend upon Sena-
tor Pcffer Mr Peffer has not con-
cluded the speech begun by him on
Thursday and he will hae the floor to
proceed tomorrow If he insists upon
having It It Is considered however
that he win > leld It and continue his
address later In the week Senator
Lodge has announced u speech for
Tuesday and may also conflict with
Senator Peffer Tho latter is expected
to consume all of ono other day and
possibly two more days Those three
speeches are the only ones positively
announced for the present week but
there ara other senators prepaied to
take tho floor when the openlne shall
occur
Other questions which may receKe
attention during the week are tha Chi
peso treaty the Russian thistle bill
and the resoljtlon providing for the
coinage ot Mexican dollars In this
country

Washington April Appropriation
bills will hae the right of way In the
house during tho week It Is the Inten-
tion of the house managers to push
ahead with these bills and get tbam
out of the way aB soon as possible
Somo of the prominent house Demo-
crats are alarmed at the slow progress
made in the senate with tho tariff bill
and the seeming Indifference those
In charge ot It are manifesting They
think by clearing up the work ot the
houBe the country will see that any
responsibility for the delay of the tar-
iff which may exist will lay at the
door of tho senate
The principal fight Involved in tho
consideration ot tho postofflce appro-
priation bill is that over the subsidy
It may require

quire two days to dlsposo

After the uostofneo bill Is disposed of

made the basis tor a genera review
of the foreign relations of the govcrn

tempt to restore Queen Miuokalanl

Chicago April 8 John M Thurston
of Omaha arrived in the city today
from St Paul Mr Thurston said the
decision ot Judge Caldwell In the Union
Tactile ense has relieved the receiver of
the responsibility of cutting down the
wages of the thousands of employes of
the road but it has not settled the
wage question
Under the decision of Judge Cald
well said Mr Thurston the receivers
have no power to reduce the wages vt
tho imploves who were Involved In tho
proceeding In court This Includes the
engineers and firemen nnd all the train-
men The older emploses shopmen
clerks und all holding salaried posi-
tions had their pay reduced last Sep-
tember when a cut ot from 10 to 20
per cent was mado Theso employes
have come Into conrt and havo peti-
tioned for a restoration of their old sal-
aries Judge Caldwell held that the
present schedulea under which train-
men worked were Just and proner nnd
should not be reduced by the receivers
Other employes now aiy that If tho
trainmens schedules nre right the re-
duction of their wages was wrong and
their petition seems to be logical and
unassailable The rate of wages paid
on the Union raclflo Is higher than Is
paid on other roads nnd tho receivers
deemed a reduction necesrary and not
unjust considering the situation in
which tho road is placed

no t political there has been as a rule
more practical work and campaigning
done at Btate Confederate reunions
than at any other state gatherings
Tho present meeting however Boems
devoid of much that has characterized
former reunions in this respect
Candidates for state offices have
been and are probably as numerously
present ns in the past but beyond this
pollttcnl affairs have been rather es-
chewed Thl Is ascribed to the recent
changes In the condition of the party
and tho changes and uncertainties
growing out of tho harmony agreement
and tho failure as far as most candi-
dates nre concerned to get on to the
combination
One feature of tho meeting however
which does not escape the attention of
those who observe what Is going on
and hear what Is being said Is the
large extent ot the friendly feeling dis-
played for Hon Vf B Baker chair-
man ot the Btate executive commit
Considerable sentiment favorable lo

atiioy Attvaiitnue
Much has been said and written re-
cently with regard to the oponlng ut
that port ot the Indian Territory
knowit as lte Port Sill country
Prom the contiguity of thla Port
SHI region in Northern Texas It is
especially a question of Interest to
tho peoplo of this section whether
congrees will take favorable action on
tho subject and the decision Is awaited
with Interest
The subject hns 1 een considerably
discussed nmnnlf the business men of
Tort Worth and tho opinion Is largely
expressed that to open the lort Sill
country would bo n long step In tho
right direction und the result would
be a very important benefit to this
Uty from a commercial point of view
A consensus of opinion Is that If
the Port Sill country were thrown open
for settlement It would become tl very
valuable feeder contributory to Port
Woi th
A number of the business men of
Port Worth were interviewed and ex-
pressed themselves as follows
T II Burdrldge real estate I nm
heartily In favor uf the opening
ot the Port Bill country to settlement
It will attract settlers from tho Noah
nnd Unst and many of them will come
Into this i rt cf Texas The Port
Sill country is a rich legion and
should it bo opened to settlement It
will becomo an Important trlhutaty
to this part of Texas and vt course
Port Worth will retclvo a good share
ot the benefits I am verv heartily
In favor of tlio opening and am will-
ing to do all In my power to promote
It
II W Teates While I have not read
or thought n great deal on the subject
jot from what I havs learned of the
Port Sill country I lielleve It would be
of great advantage to Port Worth to
have that country opened to settle-
ment
11 A Williams Tort Worth Imple-
ment company 1 should like to see
all of that territory opened for settle-
ment We have some trade up there
and I think It would be Increased
largely If the Port Sill country was
opened up for settlement
W II Blratton of Btratton White
1 nm decidedly in favor of opening
the Port Silt country to settlement
und it would Just be tho difference bo
tween a settled und on unsettled coun-
try It would Increuao business In Fort
Worth nnd be a bcnellt to our line of
business I am convinced
Ij August I am in favor of any-
thing which will result In an increase
of business for Port Worth and I be
llevo that throwing open the lort Hill
country for settlement would bo n step
In that direction
II J Wnlte H would cortalnly bo-
a good tilng for our wholesale trade
if tho Fort sill country was opened for
settlement and I think for the retail
trade also especially if they would
run excursions from thero to Port
Worth
William M Harrison president State
national bank Yes I think if the
Port Sill country was opened for set-
tlement It would le a good thing for
the bUEtncss of Port Worth All tho
people want it and there is no doubt
lit the benefit that would arise from
its being opened
President Huiley ot tho National
Live Stock bankl I think that as a
matter of course all peoplo should be
In favor of opening tho Xort Sill eouu
ry As that country setles up wo aro
bound to receive our share of the trade
which will coma from It
Maddos Klllson saldilt would be
a very good thing for the trado of Port
Worth If the Fort Bill country should
be opened up for settlement is our
opinion on the subject
8 S McCord of McCordColllns com-
pany I am of the opinion that It
wuld be an excellent thing or Fort
Worth if tho Port Sill country was
opened up for settlement The Cham-
ber of Commerce took tho matter up
and many of the business men are In-
terested In tho subject That country
Is a garden spot and Its settlement
would result In an Increase ot trade
tor Ifort Worth
Glpson W Holllngsworth vicepres
ident of the Crawford Dry aoods com-
pany I should be glad to see tho
Fort Sill country opened up and I be-
lieve It would help to build up Port
Worth Indeed I do not suppose chew
Is a business man In Fort Worth who
would not be glad to seo that region
opened up for settlement
W T Ellis of Ellis Kellner J
think it would be a god thing to open
up the Fort Bill country It would
bo a contributor to Tort Worth I
VOL XYUI NO 137
understand It is one of the choicest
sections of the Indian Territory
A J Anderson I think It la Just
Indlspenslble that tho Port Sill country
should be opened up to settlement I
Was through that country n few dais
ago ana It Is ns nna a country to look
Upon aa > ou ever saw anywhere There
Is a good deal ot Interest among tho
business men of Port Worth on the
subject And several Liters have been
written a Congressman Bell ot this dis-
trict urging him to use every effort In
his power to Accomplish tho opening
for settlement
It P Butts ot Butts Bros By all
means the lorl Sill country should be
pponed for settlement It would con-
tribute largely to the traelo ot Port
Worth Our house sells goods all
through the Indian Territory and the
mors settled It becomes the larger will
be the trado which will come In this
direction There ais a large number of
meiehnttts and peddlers who trade
here und the number would be In-
creased and more goe ds sold from here
If that country was Milled up
Gen 1 M Clark Hero you have
ii maBnlBoent territory ot four million
acres In the Fort Bill country which
la Inhabited by a fon hundred lasy
Indians Just think of the number of
families lhat could And homos there
It It was opened for settlemrnt It ts
llnoly timbered and abundantly wa-
tered has a fertile soil nnd a good cli-
mate I wilt Mewl that It tho Port
Sill country was opened for settlement
It would bring 1SO00 in trade to Fort
Worth the first year which would
largely lnoroase each succeeding 5 unr
Next to the settlement ot larrnnt
county I deem the opening of tho Purt
8111 countiy Important And there is
another thing t know whereof I speak
when I say that If the Tort Bill coun-
try is opened there nre seveial lall
roud companies which will Immediately
push their lines through It from this
section Furthermore the completion
of the Albuquerque railroad Is euro to
be consummated If the opening of the
Port Sill region Is effected
Hut however desirable for Port
Worth It Is that this countiy shoull bo
upened to settlement It will not come
about unless the business men of Port
Worth take hold ot It In earnest nnd
give It their substantial support

When the Louisiana legislature

with the duty of electing twu members
to tho United Ktntes senate Tho elec-
tions promise to be hotly conested as
there are four promlneut candidates In
tha field The vacancies were created
by the death of Senator Gibson and the
recent appointment of Senator Whlto
to the bench of the supreme court of
tha United States The present sena-
tors from Louisiana Messrs Caffery
and lilunchard hold odlco by virtue of
appointment by the gov rnor nnd they
aro making a strong fight to be elected
by the legislature The other chief
candidates are cxohator Jonas and
Ilepresentatlve C J Boatner and It is
generally understood that they will
prove very formidable competitors
Mr Jonas Is a resident of New Orleans
a very ablo lawyer by protesslon and
Is backed by the solid business element
of that city On expiration ot his sen-
atorial term In 1SSS he was appointed
collector ot the port of New Oileaus
by Mr Cleveland
Mr Boatner who now represents the
Fifth Louisiana district in tho house
M well known In Washington as hav-
ing always taken a prominent part In
all legislation concerning Louisiana
