Senater Coep.r frames a Msasure That emtte
the Principal Falura el 111 InUr-
ftlaie Law OUcrlralnallan Met for-
lilddsn aa te I'ausngera,
The Philadelphia Recerd aaya that when
the legislature met In Harrlaburg, a Republi
can oaueua waa held, and a cemmlttee.headed
by Senater Hutau, was appointed te prepare
and report te the caucus a bill en antldta antldta antldta
orlmlnlnatlen which would redeem the party
pledge. Tbe oemtulttoo met and prepared a
bill, but It failed te keep te the line marked
eutln the party pledge. A plaoe was wanted
for Chris Msgue en the commission which
was te be created, and It was known that Gov Gov
ereor Beaver would net tarnish his adminis
tration or fetfvlt public confidence by
appelntlug Magee. It was therefore de
termined by the Republican leaden
net te adhere te the text of the
Cutlem bill, bnt te prepare one which would
bear a alight resemblance te It In lta mean
Ingles features while stripping that measure
of the very low effective previsions Which It
contained. They proposed te push this
scheme through the Kepubllcan caucus aa
the redemption or the party pledge, but for
some extraordinary reason they changed
their minds and ordered that the bill be in
troduced lu both branches of the legislature,
their purpose being apparently te avoid Its
rejection In caucus by these Republican
members who ure opposed te railroad dicta
tion. Instead or changing tbe Cullem bill no aa te
adapt it te state trstuc, which could have
been readily doneiu tweutv minutes by In
eerliug the word "governor" wherever "pres
ident" occurred, by Inserting 'court of com
mon picas" wherever 'district and circuit
court or tba Cnlted Stales" appeared, and by
changing lnter-state tralue te trame "wholly
within the state," tha caucus sub-committee,
or rather Chairman Cooper, as tbe agent of
the railroad Interests, presented a bill which
entirely emitted three sections of the Cul Cul
eom bill, and which, by adding a new sec
tion and by changing all but four sections of
the original text, transformed what waa a
weak regulation of the railroads Inte a bill
that gave the carrying companies a great
power for evil under the guise or a legisla
tive enforcement or the state constitution.
The bill proposed by Chairman Cooper In
sures secrecy In matters pertaining te rail
roads, rather than that publicity which Is a
sovereign cure for all the evils cf railroad
mismanagement The Cullem bill applied
te passengers and freights, but the Cooper bill
sppiles only te freight The number, the
salaries and the mode of appointment or the
commissioners ara entirely changed, and the
power ei tbe beard Is diminished te less than
that or an advisory body. It takes from
Governer Beaver tbe power te appoint tbe
commissioners and gives him a choice of only
one member, who must be a railroad expert,
out of the three te be chosen. This change
was made out or distrust te the governor. 1 1
makes his administration responsible for tbe
doings of tbe commission without enabling
him te control It The olause In the
Cullem bill forbidding the appoint
ment of commissioners who own stocks
or bands of railroads, or who are In any way
pecuniarily Interested therein, has been
dropped. Tbe bill HmltMthe control of the
commission te carrying," and cuts out the
vital rerereuce te "storing, handling, de
livering and receiting." acuta out tbe Cul Cul
eom bill ruferonce te peeling. It emits that
section which required the railroad compa
nies te make annual reports. It emits that
clause empowering tbe commission te make
any Inquiry it may deem proper. It emits
the definition of what constitutes "a contin
uous carriage," and, while In all the featurta
It lessens ilie power of the commission
ever railroad, it increases the power
or tbe commission te delay and embarreM
the complaining ahlpper. It obliterates all
trace of the original purpose or the Cullem
bill and creates anew obtructien te the en
forcement et the law of the common carrier.
The Cooper bill dee net povide for any ap
peal directly te the courts, but itdecs provide
for the repeal of th? only statute that even
squinted nt a direct approach te tbe courts;
and it lurthur heu ferih that In civj the luck
less shipper, who Hud no ether cheap and
easy remedy open te him, shall complain te
the commission the determination or that
complaint shall be u bar te she pursuancoef
his grievance through the courts.
Kven the mild criminal penalty that tbe
Cullem bill Imposed ler Its violation bes been
stricken out of the Coepor bill. The oQense
of extortion " has alae been obliterated, and
the criminal penally has been limited only
te theso who "obstruct or delay tha commls cemmls commls
slen," and te these empleyes of the commis
sion who dlHclese any of the socrets of the
railroad company.
Captured Twe Foxes.
Jake Balr, proprietor of the hotel at Will Will
lamstewn, and Henry Mkiles, of Mt Vernen,
son of old Brlsbin Sklles, are amecg the most

Tba Cer Proposed Attitude in Cat none
Cooties Is Fr.eipltaud.
The conviction Is gaining ground that war
between France and Germany Is inevitable.
In addition te this It Is sild that, as a fresh
defeat of France might Involve disastrous
results te Russia, the czar's gevernmen
will, In the event of war, preserve entire
Uberty of action. It will net support Franoe
aa an ally, but may by a Arm, reserved
attitude prevent Germany from sending the
whole of her army west of the Rhine, and,
even If France ahenld be defeated, attenuate
as much as possible the effects of tbe disaster.
Fer these reasons, it Is declared, Russia will
await the outcome of the different phaseaef
Bulgarian crisis with the greatest calmness,
and act In such a way aa te avoid being In
volved with Austria or England at the
moment when France and Germany com
mence hostilities.
Tbe Cress Gaittlt, Berlin, calls attention te
the fact that while the extra military credlta
were under consideration In the French
Chambers one deputy Inadvertently admitted
that an army corps was coming te France
from Algerla. The Gasttte asserts thattbls
passage In tbe deputy's speech waa sup
pressed In tbe reportaef the proceedings and
did net appear in any of the French or En
glish tapers.

Appeal te the Qoveraer for Help.
Omaita, Neb., Feb. 19, A private letter
from Mr, Ada Stone from Tula City Arte,
te a relative living lu this city, brings the
first Information of an outrageous proceeding
by Bishop Let Smith and hla Mermen band,
which occurred Jan. 30. Edward Stene and
wile went te Arisona two years age. At a
point 200 miles north el any railroad, and net
tar Irern Tula, tbey opened en their ranch a
stere ter tbe sale of general merchandise.
Their neighbors In large part were Indians
and Mormons, tbe latter acknowledging as
leader Let Smith, who Is ebarged with being
one of tbe original "destroying angels" and
with having led in the Mountain Meadow
massacre. Mr. and Mrs. Stene with their
two servants were frequently warned te
leave tbe neighborhood by Smith but
they refused te go. One evening four
men appeared and elalmed tbe store and
ranch in the name of the Mermen church,
saying tbe land belonged te them and they
would give tbe occupants ten dsys in which
te leave. A hired man was at once dls.
pitched te Uubbell's ranch, thirty miles
away, for assistance. He did net return that
night and tbe Mormons, learning what waa
being done, returned in tbe morning, eigh
teen strong, and all armed with rifles
and revolver. Tbey took charge of the
place at once. Mrs. Stone was alone,
tbe etber men also having gene
for assistance. She saw them pillage the
house and store, paeklng everything they
wanted. Fearing personal violence she made
an effort te escape, but was detected by Smith
and at the point of a revolver compelled her
te return te tbe house. At this point one of
the servants returned with the Information
that Mr. Stene was coming up as rapidly as
possible with ten men. The Mormons
promptly captured him and when Stene ap
peared with hla rescuers sent word that at
the first signs of hostility the two prisoners
would be shot before their eyes. The
rescuing party camped outside and,
after a consultation, opened negotiations
with the Mormons which resulted In
the Hbsratlen of the two prisoners and tbe
relinquishment of the ranch and store te the
Mormons. The Gentiles then withdrew and
set off for Hubbell'a, the nearest habitation.
On tbe way a party et twenty-flve Navsjea
offered te go back and dislodge the Mor
mons, premising the support of the entire
tribe for tbe purpose. Because or a fear that
the property would be burned the offer waa
declined. Stene at once set off for Flagstaff,
and from there gees te Prescott te ask the
governor's aid. The ranch cannot be taken
without bloodshed, as Smith can call together
at least 200 of the Mormons who recently left
Utah and settled in that locality.
