Union Telegraph Manager Smith, of Topeka,
appeared with the dispatches c~lled for by
the commoittee. the company ylchding to tih

The committee then announced that they
had adopted the following resolutions for
guidance in calling for telegraphic corre
sixpndeno:
Resole'd, That the telegraphic messages
and copies of recorids of the same in posses
sion of the telegraph companies, their officers
or servants, are not privileged by law from
being produced for examination, on proper
process, before a committee authorized to
send for persons and papers.
Resolved, That an order for the productlion
of such documents ought to be regulated
by sound discretion, so as to protect the pri
vacy of communications not relating to the
matter under investigation, and especially
that the authority making such order ought
first to be satistled that the message sought
is, if obtained, likely to be material to the
pending investigation, and the order ought,
as far as practicable, to desoribe, with rea
sonable certainty, the particular message
or record sought.

NIr'ARA(iUA IRO)TE.
The Nicarngua route has In candlizatlon
I'"` mlhes; the remortlder is either lake or
sl.,ck-water navigation In a rlver not snljh'1t
to lo,,(.1. The, water Ispply i. twenty times
more thnn could he used In lockage; the sum
mit level or the canal 107 feet, and of the
dividrle btwPen the oce~ans 15o firt. The cost
of the canal as entimnated by the civil en
gineer without nn allowance for contlngen
ctes was $52,000 000. Rand the cost named by
the corm mission $100,000.000.
PANAMA RIOUTE?
The Panama route was carefully lonat d at
the request of the commnlsion, andl a line
Inoated at, an elevation of 123 feet above the
ocean, which will probably require an In
(rease of four or live feet, as shown by the
flood of last, November. The cort of the last
named roullt on a common hblisH for labor and
materials with Nicarnrua was more than 50
per cent greater, and will In fact coat more
than double to execute the work. It would
doubtless be IntereRting to the publhl and rl -
vantageoues to havethe two last nramed rolutes
passed over by able engineers with the in
strumental surveys in hand to aporoxlmate
the relative cost of execution. To Include
the Tehuantn.ne route would be to Include
what Is simply impossible of oexrutlIn by
reason of the physical nonditions above
named. The ohj-ct could not he to hope t*o
make a canal there, but simply to prevent Its
execunton elsewhere.
At this time there are in Nicaragua two
European narties who are asking a conces
sion. In March last one was agreed upon to
M. Blanchet, and only larked one vote In the
Menate to confirm it. The problem then Is,
shall we place no obstacle In the way of an
American company, and thus probably ena
hle It to secure a grant with the ideaof only
permitting tolls that would he liberally re
munerative, or shall we place these obstacles
In the way and certainly throw the conces
slon into the handsof Europe and allow them
to Impose their proposed tolls upon us? They
may very well say that wears not compelled
to pass through the canal; it Is simply op
tional whether we go that way or via Cape
Horn. We cannot very well propose to dic
tatewhat these tolls shall be. at least unless
we do so in advance of the granting of a con
ession by Nicaragua, and even then it would
seem somewhat pretentious in view of our
inability tq support such a demand, either in
reason or by material force.
I may add that the commisslon appointed
by the President In 187., which sent in its re
oort In 1876, had all of thenformatlon thought
necessary ree..rting all the region involved
in short, the only tworoutes worth looking at
aIPanama an·d Nalesrst, Iand they oaly to
edtablish the relative approxilmate o0t of ext
ecutior.

A dl.P atch from Lyons, N. Y., publlshed 18
yestera<y 's Tines, annoutnced that Mies
Franleis ovey, or that pla.ce, had killed her
father and then shot herself. Miss HloV
was a beautiful, respeCteml ar4 amiabletdlri
and not long ago wae the reixUing belle oi
Lyonse. Hte was engaged to be married t
Eugene itaines, of IRochester, and hi.ldeat ,
last Htptelner., was a rtoot severe blow to
her. For a time the sadl ocurrenrc almost
cr.7,ed her and she has never entirely reoov*
eled from it. On Saturday about noon sbe
started for the postutflhce with some letters,
One of them was addressed to the psetor oi
the Methotdist C(hurch, of whihob she was a
nrenbher. In It she said that she intended to
kill her "dPar, kindl father, who had t4o
much trouble," and lthen take her own life.
iFrom tile i pot.ymce she went immsillately to
her father ' hat and cap store, in larnal street.
On entering the store, no one but the father
alnd the girl to.ing presOut, it is supposed that
she wCnt to the rear or the room, where her
father sat reading by the stove went behind
hini, as seon by the position of her muff and
outer wrappings, boodk a pistol from her
pcoket and shutt him in the right nide of the
tehiul, plsci ng the barrel alaing-it his temple,
produc Ing instant death. After this she
reloadted the pistol, whicht was a small
singh nleurrel one, went u p stallrs in a
Iptak riont of the store and sent a bullet

Unfavorable Reports Fully Confirmed by
the Mark Lane Expres.
Isonio, Jan. r5.--rhe Mark Lane Exprese'e
annual Irop returns ftron 411 (orrtptudents,
reprr'senting every county in England, fully
conflirmr the worst accounts regardirIg these
trme failure of the crop4. The K'cpres saye:
'The returns are the most deiscura~nin we
have over published. Of the 429 diestrict
from which returns were cdleoted, not one
has produced a wheat or pea crop of over bhe
averagn; only two represent a barley crop,
and onlty six a tbea onrop as over the avera.
Oats la the only cr(t p that, is not thoroughly
bad. An examnlation of ton years' tablet
will show that. we have had worse oat eropr
and as had a beau crop, but for wheat, barly
and pens there has been no year of the tea,.
and we might go further hack, not nearly so
unfruitful. Even with respect to oats and
beans, if weight and quality be taken Into
aoc,.int, no year of the ten has given such
bad results.
To wheat this disastrous failure of crop Is
most strikingly shown by the tact that olnl
4 out of 429 returns represent It up to the
avetage.
The remarks of our n.rrespondents as to
the econditlon of grain and pulse are as dis
heartening as the aceO lnuts of the yield.

The Richland Bea'on says that Capt. W.
W. Farmer, of Ouachita, is spoken o as a
candidate for circuit judge.
We were under the impression that Capt.
Farmer would not ooneent to becomes candi
date for this position. We know of noper
son better qualified for the position than
Capt. Farmer, and no one we would prefer to
see on the bench. Capt. Farmer and Judge
Mayo would constitute a bench which would
give universal satisfaction.--Catahoula News.
Capt. Farmer will accept the candidacy
and will, we have no doubt, make a good
judge.
