TIIE SCRAKTON TRIBUNE WEDNESDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 19, 1894. FOR UNI WITH CANADA A Resolution Offered by a Member from Xcw Hampshire. SENATOR HILL OX CLOTURE Debate on tlio Carlisle Currency Prcatn Begins in the House Mr. Springer and Air. Walker Occupy the Moor. The Gettysburg 1'ark. By the United Tress. Washington, Deo. 18. In the senate today the house bill for the forfeiture of railroad lands In cases where tli road was not built within the time fixed by the grant, although subse quently completed and accepted by the government, was reported back ad versely from the commlttso on-public lands and placed on the calendar. was staled by the chairman of the com mlttee (Mr. Berry, Dem., Ark.) that the members of the committee stood Ave for and five against the bill, but that one of the former had voted for an adverse report rather than have the bill die In committee, and so that there might be a vote of the senate upon it. A resolution In favor of the politlca union of Canada and the United States was offered by Mr. Galllnger (Rep UN. It.) and referred to the committee on foreign relations with the suggest ion mat this committee shall grant Hearings on the subject. An hours speech was made by Mr, Hill (Dem., N. Y.) In favor of his pro posed cloture rule the keynote of the speech being that "an Inability to stop .debate is an inability to legislate at nil." ' He was followed by Mr. Hoar (Hep., juass.) who expressed his full agree went with Mr. Hill's view of the necrs BIty of a change of the rules In the senate. The resolution went over with out action till tomorrow. The Nicaraugua canal bill was then taken up and Mr. Turpie (Dem., Ind.) continued his attack upon it, but had not concluded his Speech when the senate at 4.30 p. m. adjourned. House Considers Currency The debate upon the currency plan proposed In the Carlisle bill, reported xcom 'the committee on banking and currency, was begun in the "house to day, according to the notice given yes terday by Chairman Springer. The first speakers were Mr. Springer, (Dem -in.;, cnairman or the committee on banking and currency, in favor of the bill, and Mr. Walker, (Rep., Mass.), who advocated the adoption of his bid which he said he would offer as a substitute for the Carlisle bill. These pentlement, recognized as the leaders of the forces for and against the bill. ppoke without limit and were listened to attentively throughout by a large proportion of the members of the house. The bill which was before the house. Mr. Springer sa(d, did not represent the views of any member of the committee or of the house In Its entirety. It was a compromise moasuro, and submitted an the best that could be hoped for at the present time. Proceeding then to explain the pro Visions of the bill, Mr. Springer quoted from the report of the committee to show first what the bill required In lieu of the deposit of United States bonds or other Interest bearing obligations as security for the circulating notes, as al ready made public In his report. Mr. Springer contrasted the provisions of the bill for redemption, of notes of failed banks with those of the so called Baltimore plan, asserting that they were practically identical in their ef fect and extent. All the national banks and bankers in the United States had endorsed the Baltimore plan ns a safe and desirable one. If this bill was en acted into law it would improve our financial system. It would not only do this, but In his opinion, It would give the United States the best financial sys tem of any civilized country in the World. Mr. Walker's Scheme. Mr. Walker (Rep., Mass.) followed Mr. Springer. He said that If there ever iwas a case in which bread was asked and a stone given, a fish asked and a scorpion given, It was In this instance. Our banking system was so faulty that it was costing the people thirty millions of dollars merely for the machinery of loaning capital after they had paid the Interest. Entering upon the question of redenmptlon of note.s Mr. Walker said he wanted to get back to the Jack-Bon-Benton Democratic platform of Compelling the banks, In return for the anehlses granted them, to maintain ,t their own expense the parity of helr notes with gold. Under the oper ations of this bill, Mr. Walker said, ithe losses from failed banks In the past thirty years would have amounted to $8,000 an Infinitely small amount Mr. Walker referred to the provisions In his bill which would relieve the treas ury of the necessity of redeeming notes In gold, and said that gold in the treas ury served only one purpose, that of redeeming notes. It did not even meas ure values directly. In conclusion Mr. Walker said hls.blll provides for the appointment of a com mission consisting of the five leading tankers In the live principal redemp tion cities, who shall give the secretary of the treasury advice and counsel in all matters relating to the financial matters of the government. This was a measure of relief to the secretary that iwaa worth a whole session of legisla tion. a he debate, In accordance present understanding will the remainder of the week. with the continue A bill to establish a natlonnl park at Gettysburg, Pa., was favorably report ed from the committee on military affairs. INDUSTRIAL TOPICS. .The Lehigh Valley operates t,415 miles of road. , ' The uverage cost of a locomotive is tlO.000. There are now about 35,000 locomotives In the United States. Superintendent Lawnll states that the Lehigh and Wlllkes-Bnrre company will take its suit with the Wright heirs to the supreme court. The Lehigh Valley railroad owned $."08,154 of water company stocks in 1S92. At present it Ib reported that this holding has been reduced to $11.2,250. The Pennsylvania Railroad company has resumed the work of straightening Its main line. The work was suspended some months ago during the depression. The Lehigh Valley has decided to have no more wooden bridges. There are only fifty-seven wooden bridges on the line now out of a total of 1.048. Of these 757 are stone and 227 Iron. The timber land of the state Isn't decreasing as fast us one might believe. In 1.S92 there were 8,o58.142 acres. In ISM only 73.030 acres were cleared. In 1894 about 121.314 acres were cleared. Tlie Philadelphia and Heading rail road company has changed the system of signaling on passenger trains. In stead of shouting "all right" the brake men will signal with their arms and lamps. II. D. Hughes and Arthur Cnswell have secured the contract for Blnking the new slope In the Cooper vein at No. 5, Delaware and Hudson, at Plymouth. Work will be begun at once. The dis tance to be driven Is 750 feet. An act to regulate the employment of railroad telegraph operators will be In troduced at the next session of the Pennsylvania legislature. This act passed the house last time but failed on second reading In the senate. The Huntingdon and Broad Top rail road carried -49,045 tons of coal last week, an increase of 1,129 tons over the same week last year. Since Jan. 1 the shipments have been 1,964,894 tons, a decrease of 174,140 tons, as compared witn last year. The Blue Mountain railroad from Harrlsburg to Heading is being sur veyed again. It will connect with the South Mountain road at Slatington, and at that point with the Pennsylvania. Poughkeepsie and Boston and make a through route. The Pennsylvania Is considering the building of quite a number of freight cars, and whenever It is deridi-ri tn undertuke the work part of the cars will be awarded to private firms. As yet nothing definite has been done by the company. The anti-Wilbur people are reported to have twenty clerks at work asking for proxies. John N. Wilson, for many years traffic manager of the Pennsvl vanla, is mentioned for the presidency n c?e jonn v ma niker will not lead the opposition. Superintendent King, of the Philadel phia, Beading and New England, has resigned to accept the superlntendency of the Providence division of the New York and New England. Chief Train Dispatcher Masters has been promoted to Mr. King's old position. A combination freight and cattle enr has Just been built by General Manager Compbell of the Baltimore and nhln Cattle cars at present are almost al ways returned empty. The new car If round practicable, will allow It to bo used for cattle In one direction and for freight In the other. The North No. 2 slonn has been shut down. There was some coal In the workings, but It was of such poor quality that the comnanv did m.t consider It profitable to Itrpnnro t Thn roads In the gangways and nn (h '!.. have been taken out, thus leaving the slope to fill with water. All work on the extension nf tlio T!,.n. fonte Central railroad from State Col lege to Pine Grove has been temporarily suspended owing to lnck of funds nrwl scarcity of Iron. It is authoritatively stated that the road will be completed and trains running on It before March 1, ver one-nair of the distant I graded and rails are laid on the same distance. , Since the total suspension of Mn 1 colliery, at Silver Brook, the Silver Brook Coal company have been their utmost endeavor to obtain for the last named carrying corporation a share of the output from No. 2 colliery The Lehigh Valley effors Tiave been successful and from today they will be awarded between 150 und 200 tons a dnv of the No. 2 colliery's output. A rich find has been made at the Phil. adelphla and Beading company's Hast colliery, near Big Mine Run, which gives to that mine a new lease of life. The colliery was originally owned mid operated by Emanuel Bast. The methods formerly employed in develop ing the mine made it Impossible to work the east side above 1,000 yards In extent, and it was abandoned years ago. The Buck Mountain vein on the west side was worked to the limit, and the prospects for further work seemed bo poor that many of the minora went elsewhere for work. The comnanv in the meantime prospected in various places, but without success. A tunnel. 5 yards in length, .from the west side was driven some time ago, but It opened into me Muck Mountain vein, which Is inferior. A gangway was then driven eastward 1,000 yards, and another tun nel, the same length as the first driven me company was rewarded w4ien the workmen broke through the rock Into the long lost coal deposit known as the Mammoth vein. This vein ranges from thirty to sixty feet In thickness and Is of the finest In quality. An official of the company stated that with such resources as the Hast colliery now has, it is the richest in the mining region and will provide work for hundreds of men for many years to come. The breaker will be Improved and rejuven aieu to prepare the output. - STOCKS AXU BONDS. By the United Press. New York, Dec. 18. During the early cession at the Stock exchange the market was quiet almost to stagnation. Chirago Gas was the only stock on tho list that snowed any signs of life and It advanced over a points to 71. Little or nothing was uone in the general list until the last nour or so of business, when trailing be came more active. Tho Increased volume of business, howover, was at the expense or valuta. The withdrawals of gold from ine sub-treasury gave tlio beurs an on portunlty to create uneasiness because It was Impossible to obtain from the sub- treasury olilcials the actual amount taken. The efforts to surround the mat tor with the greatest secrecy Is not np- proved or m llnunelal circles.
