THB “BACKBONE" LAND GRANT,
ft' accordance with Secretary
Teller’s order, dated March 3d. the
commtesiouer of the general land
offleeIssued three patems to tbe New
Orieaue Pacific ralroad company for
678,287 acres of land, known aa tbe
“Backbone” grant, and they were
delivered to Win E Barnum by the
direction of John F Dillan, attor
ney for Ihe railroad com
pany. Although Secretary Teller
issued patenle for only
6711,287 aerts of land tbe company
under He grant claimed 1,000 U(K)
acres. Yesterday Secietary I. .mar
issued the following order to the com
missioner of the land office :
“March 10, 1885—You aie hereby
directed to suspend all proceedings
relative to Ihe patenting of lunds to
the New Orleaus Pacific railroad
onmpnny until further notice.
“[Signed] L (A. C. Lamak ”
In addition to lire lands already
patented the New Orleans Pacific
railroad company has lists covert-g
336,708 acres of land which,under this
last older cannot be paleuled until
Ihe secretory lulceB further action.
Secretary Lemur says that his reason
for suspending action In the matter
was ou ly to obtain an opportunity
to examine fully luto tbe merits ot
the company’s claims. Patents were
Issued on the eame day as Ihe order
of Secretary Teller, and In making
them up, all lauds to which them
was au adverse claim were omitted,
although It Is stated at the depart
ment, that In many cases tbe right
of the railroadcoinnauy to Ihe truets
under grant, can hardly he qiieg
tloned.
COUNTERFEIT ONE-OENT PIECES
The treasury department has re
n.-ived from the assistant treasurer at
New York epeolmens of counterfeit
one-cent pieces which are believed to
have obtained extensive chculalim
In New York and vicinity. The
counterfeit Is made solely of ooppci.
wherta* tbe genuine coin is alinytd
with nickel As nickel Is more val
uable than copper, It will resdily be
seen that tbe manufacture of good
counterfeit consisting entirely of
baser metal, would prove a lucta’ive
business If successfully conducted for
any great length of lime. Ills esii
mated that a profit of 75 ceuis would
be made on every one hundred of the
spurious pieces put into circulation.
The matter Is being investigated by
officers ol the secret service.

places on the majority sides of tlis

to-day, but tbe result will not be
formally declared till to-morrow.
Senator Conger succeeds to the chair

offices and pest roads, made vucanl
by the retirement of Senator Hill;
Senator Pike takes the cl air of the
committee on claims, held by Sc lator

Evarls is made a member ol ibe com
mittee on judiciary, aud of Ihat upon
foreign relations; Senator Teller is
made chairman of the committee on
mines and rniniug aud a member of
the committee ou publio lands The
judiciary committee is increased by
one, aud Ibe commerce and public
buildings committees by two mem
bers eacb. Many other changes were
made in the membership of commit
tees for the purpose of tqiializing tbe
honors for responsibilities and labors
of tbe committee rooms, aud ibe task
of tbe caucus committee Was found
to lie one ol oonsiihirajblc difficulty
Its members are uifhsua'ly reticent
about tlielr proceedings, but it is un
derstood that a feature of tbeir work,
which proved the most perpli Xing,
was related to thetinauce committee
Senator Sherman, it Is said, asked lo
he relieved from further ser
vice upon this committee un
less Its composition was changed
In some respects. He is credited with
an impre-Blou that New Euglaud

aud is said to have given this as hit-
reason for wishing to wiihdraw
This, It Is reported, when brought
before a full caucus precipitated a dis
cussion of the tariff in which wool
and pig iron figured as the
leading elements. Neither ttie caucus
uor caucus committee seems to have
seen its way clear to make tbe change
desired by tbe seuator from Obio for
Ihe republican membersUip of the
ffnanoe committee. As it stands to
night It ie the same as It was Iasi sea
son. Many senators have urged Sher
man to remain upon ilie
finance committee upon the
ground that bis familiarity
with tbe financial affairs of tbe gov-
eminent would there be most oou
spicuously serviceable. His uame
stands second upon tbe committee
list. He was hot present at tbe eapi-
tol to-day aud his further purposes in
regard to the matter areuuknowu.
THOMPSON’S COMPETITOR.
A strong effort Is being made by
prominent democrats, witb Kauilal)
at tbeir head, to secure tbe appi iul-
ineut of Joseph 8 Miller, of West
Virginia,as commissioner of iuiernal
revenue. Tbe president has Lot yei
come to a decision witb regard to tbe
tilling of this place and it is not likely
that Ihe nomination will be seut t<
tbe senate before tbe end of the week.

petitor for the position, has been

RUSSIAN TROOPS ADVANCING.
Bp ci»l to Ilie Kuqutrer-Muu.l
London, March 11.—Financial cirs
elm are somewhat excited over tbe
official reports received here Ibis af
ternoon confirming the atatement
published iu the Times this morning
to the effect that Russian troops had
advanced further into the Afghan
territory. The Russian government
admits that such a movement had
taken place, bur asserts that It was
only- intended for^ the purpose
of seeking a more suitable
podtirin in case of a war with
Afghanistan. It Is generally believed
here that both the Afghans and Rus
sians are hurrying forward, and that
a collision is imminent. British con
suls have fallen 11 16 of one per cent
and Russian securities two per cent
in consequence of the above news.
A SEMI PANIC.
6 p m—The war rumors have pro
duced an excitement on stock ex
change which amounted, during the
afternoon, to a state of semi*panic.
The prices on all continental
courses have fallen in sympathy with
he feeling on the Lmdon stock ex*
change. The principal declines are
among the Russian aud Egyptian se
curities.
The rumors of war with Russia
and the expectation of large deliv
eries of stock at the conclusion of tbe
Hettlement to-moriow, together with
the general disinclination to buy
stock of any sort under present cir
cumstances, completely demoralized
tho market, to day, except in the case
of American and Canadian railway
securities. Prices have fallen
heavily on all sides. Consols

THE TIMES’ OPINION.
London, March 11 - The Times
*ays that it is probable that some of
General Lunden’s officers have el-
ready commenced work. The gov
ernment has practically ordered
Lumsden to organize an Afghan de
tense. The Times says: “We believe
the main body of General Lumsden’s
troops have occupied Rabat pass. It
is hopid that General Lumsden’s
mea-ure will prevent the capture of
the key of India by acmp de main*
If Russia is bent upon war she has
many points, if she forces Plovland
to hostilities, she cunnot imsgine.
The struggle would b« confined to
the remote regions of Central Asia ”
THE RUSSIAN ADVANCE DOUBTED.
Hugh Chelders, chancellor of the
exchtquer, stated iu the house of
commons this evening that the gov
ernment was uniuformed of any fur
ther advance having been made by
the Russians iu Afghanistan, and
that he believed there was no founda*
tiou for the report that an advance

THE WEST AFRICA QUESTION
SETTLED
Berlin, March 11.—The result of
Cmtil Herbert Bismarck’s special
mission to England, relative to tbe
German interests iu West A f rica is
reported to be as follows : England
concedes to Germany the whole of
the Cameroous country, with the ex
ception of the mission town Victoria,
where the \Germans are alleged to
have hauled down the British flag.
Euglaud further agrees not to in
terfere with any action Germany
may take in the entire oountry. from
tho south baukof the Rio del Rey, a
Hinall river emptying into the Bight
of Btapra, some distance north of the
Cameroous, to Oabr.ou, which enters

many, on the other hand, recognizes
the supremacy of Englaud over the
country lying between the north
bank ot the Rio del Ray aud Lagos.
This covers the basin of the lower
Niger,
ACKNOWLEDGING THE CORN,
Berlin, March 11 The German
papers now generally admit that
Germany was somewhat blameable
iu the Angio-Germau colonial con-
trovery. They admit that tbe die-
pitch of May 5th, 1884, which invited
Euglaud to an understanding with
Germany concerning the latter’s
colonial enterprise, and which Prince
Bismarck, early last month, read to
Sir EJward Malet as a communica
tion, which Chancellor said bad been
sent to London aud never been
answered, was evidently never de

band and Representative Morrison,
Baid to your correspondent: “Yi u

all this atrugg'e not a airgle hareh

any of tbeir friend*. Well, you will
not hear a .harsh word if the dead
lock should continue all Bummer.
Neither Colonel Morrison nor my
husband will permit it. They are

Morrison and myself. You
our husbands were in
the same brigade, were in the war
together at Fort Donelaon, and were
wounded, Mrs MorrUon and I went
to the battli field together aud oared
for them, and we have been the best
of personal friendB ever since, aud
our husbands have been, too. Mrs
Morrison would readily resent a Blau-
der against my busbaud, and I am
sure I would uot listen to an untruth
to Injure Colonel Morrison, or suffer
an unfair advantage to be taken of
him. The same may be said of our
husbands,” Mrs Logan did not di

hopes of the senator’s re-election.

As tbe ireigbt train on the East
Side road was coming Into Stephens’
addition on Monday night the en
gineer and fireman saw, to tbeir hor
ror, a little child not over three years
old, balancing her tiny self upon one
of ihe rsiis ahiad and olapping her
bauds in greatest glee as the iron
monster tbundered along toward her.
Tbe engineer shut off steam and re
versed the lever, while the fireman
sprang to tbe top of tbe train and set
twoorthree brakesquickerand tight
er than they nad ever been set before.
To blow the wbiBtle would be noth
ing but murder, thought the erg!
neer, for It would surely frighten the
child and cause her to /all in front of
the irain. So he called out, and prob
ably the tones of bis voice had never
before beeu so tenderly modulsted
But calling and motioning were of us
little avail as ;the endeavors
to ;stop the heavy train
suddenly. The little girl, knowing
no fear, was waving her sunbonnet
and her laugh could be beard in the
cab of the engine. The strong man
closed his eyes and a feeling of sick
ness came over him. But it was not
destined that that little life should
thus be crushed out. Something—
was it mere ebanoe or the brush of an
angel’s wiug?—caused the wee oue to
reel and fall backward away from the
track, her tiny feet almost touching
the wheels as they went rumbling
past.

Chicago, March 11.—The Daily
News this morning nays : “It is ru
mored here that the action of Ihe
Wabash road which brought about
tiie present strike was taken after
consultation witli tbe management
of other roads, ami that it is purely a
tentative affair to ascertain the feel
ings of the railroad employes of
the country on the sub-
t of a reduction of wages. The
Wabash road, from its loca<
lion and from the fact
that its property is under
Ihe protection of tbe UuiteJ States
government, being in tne hands of a
receiver, ie peculiarly well fitted to
try this experiment. The fact that
United States marshals, aud even
federal troops, are liable to pounce
down ou any body of strikers who
undertake to destroy property will
prove a strong leverage in forcing the
result aimed at. If successful, report
ha? it that the leading roads of the
country will follow with a like re
duction, in turn using the reduction
in wages on the Wabash and the
competitive advantages given il
thereby as a pretext. In brief claim
ng that this reduction forces them
unwillingly to this Btep. They thus
hope to secure a general reduction
without engendering as much hot
blood as would otherwise result.”

negotiating a compromise.
St Louis, March 11.—A committee
from Sedulia have called on the men
in tho Missouri Pacific shops here,
but it is understood they got little if
any satisfaction. It is stated that the
men iu the Missouri Pacific shops
here have decided not to go out. The
militia companies which left here
yesterday are still resting between
JYffersou City and Hedalia. Negotia
tions fora compromis* between the
railroad company and the men are
now going ou.
MATTERS AT SEDALIA.
A Botcial from Jefferson City to
the Pos' Dispatch says Adjutant
General Jainesou returned from Be
dalia this morning. He repoits that
strikers at Bedalia all are quiet
and orderly ami apprehends no dis
turbance. He will not say all danger
lias passed, and lie can’t say what
may occur. The strikers are all
citizans of Sedalfa, mauy owning
houses aud property, and the de
struction of property would necessa-
r.ly involve a loss to them. He met
the leaders of the strike, who say they
will ouly accept the restoration of
their fotmer wages. A written prom<
i-e was given to him, which was
signed by the executive committee of
the strikers, saying that trains will
be allowed to run and property will
not be tampered with. As an evi
dence of the widespread influence of
the strike, he said the leaders told
him (he reason for their hesitancy in
agreeing to allow the railroad com
panies to run freight trains was be
cause of tiie conflicting agreements
with tiie strikers at other points to

strikers ou the entire Gould system
bait beeu agreed to.
REFUSING TO DEPUTIZE PINKERTON
MEN.
A S a daIIa special says Suporinten

morning to swear iu the Pinkerton
detec’ives, hut the mayor refused ou
the ground that the law required
some evidence before he could swear
in a man as an officer. The superin*
teudeut sent for the executive com 1
mittee of the strikers this morning
and asked if they had not violates
their contract made last night to al
low freight trains to ruu. They
replied that they bad not, as that
promise was made with the uuder
standing that tiie freights were to be
run if men could be found to ruu
them. Three attempts were made
last night to take out trains and
several this morning, all of which
failed ou account of men employed
leaving trains.
