THE PROCEEDINGS
OF CONGRESS
Debate in Senate Over Kanins Pnclllc
Railroad.
REFERENCE TO THE MAINE DISASTER
Mr. Allen's Resolution Hognrdlnc nn
lmnindlnto Investigation ot the
Cntnstropho Is Objected to by Mr.
Chandler, of Now IInmpslilrc-AII
XJutct In tho Mouse.
Washington, Feb. 17. After n spirit
ed debate occupying more than two
hours, the senate today by a vote or
31 to 29 agreed to tho resolution of Mr.
Turple, of Indiana, declaring tho sen
ate's opposition to the confirmation of
I ho sale of the Kansas Pacific railroad.
It was developed by tho discussion that
the government would receive trom
the sale of tho Union and Kansas Pa
cific something more than $65,000,000, 1
per cent, of tho entire Indebtedness or
the roads to the United States, the
bavis of settlement being about $20,000,
000 better for the government thnn that
proposed by Uie Cleveland administra
tion. After the disposition of the res
olution the Corbett case was discussed
by Mr. Petttts, Alabama, and Mr. Hoar,
Massachusetts, an agreement having
first been reached to take a final vote
upon tho case on Monday, Feb. 28.
The only reference thus far made to
the disaster to the battleship Mnlno
was In the form of the following reso
lution Introduced by Mr. Allen, Ne
braska: "Resolved, That the committee on
naval affairs be directed to make an
Immediate and thorough Investigation
Into the cause of the disaster to the
battleship Maine In tho harbor of Hav
ana on the l&th Inst, and report to the
senate."
Mr. Hnle. Maine, chairman -of the
naval nlfnlrs committee, said ho had
no objection to the reference of tho
resolution to his committee, but he did
not deem It desirable for the committee
to proceed with an Investigation of the
melancholy nffalr In Havana harbor.
The executive department of the gov
ernment wns even now engaged In mak
ing nn Investigation of the disaster.
Tho secretary of the navy was engaged
In the work and was employing1 nil
the means In his power to ascertain
the truth. If the matter was taken up
by the naval affairs committee. Mr.
Hale said, the best the committee
could do would bo to act through the
nay department, he was satisfied that
as soon ns tho secretary of tho nnvy
obtained definite information concern
ing the explosion and its details he
would communicate the facts to con
gress. Mr. Allen objected to having the
resolution sent to the committee on
naval affairs. "We of us," said he,
"who are not members of the naval
affairs committee, or of the foreign re
lations committee cannot get Informa
tion from the departments about these
things. We are shut out ns complete
ly ns If we were private citizens. I
think I ought to get my Information,
and I am deeply Interested In the mat
ter, through the committee on naval
affairs of the senate. I do not care to
debate this mutter or to Indulge In any
extended discussion of it. What I
wnnt is action by the committee that
will give us Information."
Mr. Chandler, New Hampshire, ob
jected to the resolution and It went
over until tomorrow.
The debate on the bankruptcy bill
dragged along listlessly In the house
today, interest in it being overshad
owed as on yesterday by the Maine
disaster. The speeches on the floor at
tracted almost no attention and were
delivered In most Instances to a hand
ful of members.
MEASURES FOR KLONDIKE.
Powers ot the Governor ol Alnska lo
He F.nlnrced.
Washington, Feb. 17. Senator Car
ter, from the senate committee on pub
lic lauds, has reported favorably the
boui-e bill granting light of way to
railroads and extending the homestead
laws In Alaska, with amendments mado
by tho senate committee. The amend
ments of the senate limits to forty
acres the amount of land to be taken,
unless the land Is distinctly agricul
tural, the object being to prevent a
monopoly of valuable sites by any in
dividual. Senator Carter has Introduced a bill
tor the government of Alaska. The bill
1 as been before the committee for some
time and was re-Introduced with
amendments which have been sug
gested. The committee on territories
will report It.
The bill provides for enlarging the
powers of the governor In some re
spects, and especially In retard to car
ing for the Insane, by allowing him to
send thm to asylums In states west
of the Rocky Mountains. Three courts
nre to be established, each under a
Judge holding for four years, with tho
usual court of oflleers. The judge of
the court may appoint United States
commissioners, who shall have the
1 ewers of justices ot the peace In Ore
gin with Jurisdiction In cases up to
.51,(i00: the commissioners and deputy
marshals are under the fee system with
double tho fees allowed In Oregon.
The theory of the commissioners nnd
deputy marshals is that governmeiU
la to bo provided for every mining
camp. The judges ure required to di
vide their districts Into three record
ing districts, over which the court bus
supervision, nnd a commissioner must
be designated to net. The right Is re
served to the miners In organized min
ing districts to make rules for record
ing of mining locations not to conflict
with law; notices of location of min
ing claims must be recorded within
ninety days after location. Town or
city governmenta may be organized as
provided by law In Oregon, where not
less than S00 permanent residents are
located upon a regular town site.
Taxes shall bo limited to 2 per cent,
of the assessed valuation and Indebt
edness shall not exceed 2 per cent, of
the valuation.
Kfforts were made to havo some reg
ulation In the latter till or In the right
ot wny bill licensing the sale of 11
qr.or In tho Territory, but It Is not
provided for In either measure.
