THE COMMITTEE ON RULES. The Speaker Announces the Anxiously Awaited Names as Foilows: Crisp, McMillin, Catchings, Reed and Burrows—Crisp’s New Gavel. WASHINGTON, Dec. 17. —The president sent to the senate the following nomina- tions: A To be United States circuit judge, William D. Putnam of Maine, first judicial circuit; Nathaniel Shipman of Connecticut, second judicial circuit; George M. Dallas of Penn- sylvania, third judicial circuit; Nathan Goff of XVest Virginia, fourth judicial circuit; \Villiam H. Taft of Ohio, sixth judicial cir« cuit, and William A. Woods of Indiana, sev- enth judicial circuit, and Warren Truitt of Oregon to be United States district judge of the district of Alaska. The New Judges. William M. Putnam, of Maine, is a. prom- inent lawyer of Portland, by some recog- nized as at the head of the profession. He is about fifty-five years old and never held any judicial position, although a place on the supreme bench of the state has been practically at his disposal for some time. He was appointed a member of the fishery commission by President Cleveland. Nathanie Shipman is at present United States district judge, his, with Judge 'VVood’s, being the only two promotions in the list. George A. Dallas is a member of the famous family, being a nephew and name- sake of George A. Dallas, who was vice president from 1845 to 1849. He is a son of Judge Dallas, of Pittsburg, and grandson of Secretary James Dallas. He is a prominent lawyer of Philadelphia. Nathan Golf is of national reputation, having served as governor of West Virginia and for a short time as secretary of the navy in the latter end Of the Hayes admin- istration. William H. Taft is a. son of the late Al- phonso Taft, General Grant’s atterney gen- eral. His home is Cincinnati, where he was born. Mr. Taft is at present solicitor gen- eral, having been appointed to succeed the late Mr. Chapman, of New York. Judge Woods, of the Sixth circuit, is a man whose name is well known in connec. tion with the conspiracy trials growing out of the election of 1888. He served during the war, and was elected to the supreme bench of the state, whence he was appointed United States district judge, to succeed Judge Gresham, when President Arthur took the latter into his cabinet as postmaster general. _, It is said the Democrats will vigor- ously oppose his confirmation. To Close the Fair Sundays. , The presentation of petitions and bills again occupied the attention of the senate. Most of the petitions were against the Open- ing of the \Vorld’s fair on Sundays, some of them making a. bid to “Mammon” _ by pro- posing that congress should grant the $5, 000, 000 asked for, provided the directors agreed to close the fair on Sundays. Ex— Secretary Proctor put in, another batch of army reform bills, Mr. Dolph pro posed to substitute high license for prohibi- tion in Alaska, and Mr. Stewart, of Nevada, gave notice of an intended silver speech on Monday next. At the close of the business of the morning hour the senate went into executive session and in less than thirty—five minutes confirmed over 300 recess nomina- tions. The new appointments of circuit judges were referred to the judiciary com- mittee, and. at 1 :15 the senate adjourned until Thursday, when Mr. Turpie, according to notice, is to bring up the electoral vote proposition. THE COBIDIITTEE ON RULES. The Speaker Appoints Crisp, liIcliIillin, Catchings, Reed and Burrows. WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.—At the opening of the house Wednesday, the speaker an- nounced the committee on rules, as follows: The speaker, Messrs. McMillin, Catchings, Reed and Burrows. The gavel presented by the citizens of Americus, Ga, his home, to Speaker Crisp, is about ten inches loug, made of oak, high- ly polished, with gold bands around the head and silver band and tip on the handle. On the bands are engraved the words, “Pre sented to Hon. Charles F. Crisp, speaker of the house of representatives, by. his constit- uents of Americus, Ga.” Accompanying the gavel was the following letter: AMERICUS, Ga, Dec. 12. .Hon. Charles F. Crisp, Washington. DEAR SIR—The undersigned, representing the whole people of Americus, beg leave to present you this gavel. Please accept it as a slight tes- timonial of regard for you personally and joy- ful appreciation of your merited advancement to the high and responsible office of speaker of the house of representatives. We have every confidence that you will ever wield it with wis- dom, justice and moderation. W P. Burt, R. M. Stuart, Arthur Rylander, C. A. Fricker, committee. 1 In his opening prayer Chaplain Milburn referred to the death of several representa- tives elected to membership of the house, commended the families of the deceased to divine comfort and consolation and asked that the members present be protected against the insidious malady again making its ravages through the land; and, in con- clusion, that the representatives might be duly impressed with the shortnesss of life, and thereby be induced to wisely use their time. The speaker then announced the commit- tee on rules, which had been awaited with so much interest. Mr. Burrows, of Michigan, from the board of visitors to the military academy, pre- sented the report of that body, to be re- ferred to the committee on military afl’airs when appointed. A Ten Minutes’ Session. . Mr. Oates, of Alabama, offered a resolu-_‘ tion which went to the committee on rules, providing for the appointment of a standing committee on order of business, to be com- posed of fifteen members, the speaker ex- ofiicio chairman, to have charge of the ar- rangement and precedence of business be. fore the house, always considering impar- tially the measures on the calendar. " Mr. Taylor, of Tennessee, in a few old- quent words, announced the death of his late colleague, the Hon. Leonidas C. Houk, reserving until a future day the formal ex- pression of his sense of the loss sustained by himself and the state in Mr. Houk’s death. He offered the customary resolution that the house had heard with regret of the death of Mr. Honk and as a mark of respect the house adjourn. Before the resolution was put to a vote Mr. Baitine, of Nevada, having reached the city, appeared at the bar of the house and - was sworn in. Messrs. Wheeler, of Alabama; McRae, of Advertise in the A'DAILY GAZETTE! . Arkansas, and Bryan, of Nebraska, were granted leave Of absence. Mr. Taylor 5 resolution was then adopted and the house. after a session of ten min- utes, adjourned until Saturday, the 19th inst. ‘ A PROBLEDI FOR THE DEMOCRATS. Assignments to the Senatorial Committees Proving a Delicate Task. WASHINGTON, Dec. 17. —All the Demo- cratic senators agr 0e upon the state of em- barrassment which, for the first time in many years, surrounds them in the rear- rangement of the committees. On the one hand out of the nine Democrats who enter the senate for the first time no less than five are of national prominence—Messrs. Hill, Vilas, Brice, Gordon and Palmer—and therefore deserve more than the usual de- gree of recognition. On the other hand, with so many new Democrats, there are feWer vacancies than usual, because only five Democratic senators—Messrs. Wilson, Hampton, Brown, Reagan and Eustis—have been removed by death, resignation or the legislatures. It is a case Of embarrassment of riches for the democratic managers, and the task be- fore them is one that will require delicate manipulation. There are fortunately three democratic vacancies on the foreign rela tions committee, but there are none on commerce, none on judiciary, none on ap- propriations, none on privileges and elec- tions, none on public buildings and grounds and none on finance, and so on through the whole list of” 1mp01 tant committees. David B. Hill’s Piospects. ,. It is not considered probable that Gov- ernor Hill will be given aposition on the foreign relations committee. This would be too much of a concession for the sena- torial love of precedence to endure. It is far more likely that three senators will be transferred from commerce and other lead- ing committees to the vacancies in the for- eign relations committee, and that Mr. Hill will be provided for by these transfers. It is almost certain that he will go to the com- mittee on commerce by this arrangement, and may also be given the vacancy now ex- isting 1n interstate commerce by reason of. the resignation of Mr. Reagan Tha‘e are two vacancies in the committee on coast defenses and one in the committee on immigration. These are both commit— tees having jurisdiction over subjects of especial importance to New York, and it is not at all unlikely that Governor Hill will be assigned to them. It is authoritatively stated that he has expressed no preference for any position on any committee. It is naturally supposed that he would like a political committee, such as privileges and elections, but as his own case might some day be referred -to that committee he will not be named as one of its members. The Scramble for Place. » WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.—The hotel lobbies are thronged with crost of men whose anxious faces reflect their dubious hopes and fears in the matter of winning subordinate positions in the house of representatives. Men have traveled hundredsof miles, some even thousands, for the chance of getting a $1,200 job, knowing at the same time there would be a dozen applicants for every place. Said a member of congress at a down town hotel, “I have nine fellows from my district after office and I may get a. place for one, in which event I know the old saw will be verified and I will have made eight enemies and one ingrate.” Mills Greatly Improved. WASHINGTON, Dec. 17.—Mr. Mills’ physi— very comfortable night and is greatly im- proved. Mrs. Blaine’s Alimony Unpaid. NEW YORK, Dec. 17.—Mrs. James G. Blaine, J r., who has taken up her residence in South Dakota for the purpose of secur- ing a divorce from her husband, is now in this city and appears daily before Daniel aLord, Jr., before whom testimony is being taken in the case every afternoon. Mr. :James G. Blaine, J r., also confronts his wife in Mr. Lord’s office every day. Mr. Lord is conducting the case in his private room, and aside from witnesses no outside parties have attended the proceedings. There are several witnesses yet to be exam- ined, and the referee will be busy for a few days yet. Mr. Johnson, of the firm of Hoadley, Lauterback and Johnson, in an interview with a reporter of the United Press, said that 115.131.1111.; had not yet paid the alimony and counsel fees granted by the court. - Made Her Take Paris Green. RED BANK, N. J ., Dec. 17.—E121 Potrula, a Hungarian girl, was reported dying, and her sickness was of such a sudden and mys- terious nature the public prosecutor was called in to, take her antemortem state- ment. The girl is employed as a domestic by the family of Richard Crawford at Nut Swamp. ' She told the prosecutor that her lover, Thomas Timothy, a. farm hand, on Sunday last took her to the woods and com- pelled her to take a dark liquid. Timothy cannotbe found. An investigation shows that her lover gave her Paris green. g A Blaze in Paterson. PATERSON, N. J ., Dec. 17.—The works of the Paterson Sanitary company were burned. The loss is $65,000; insurance, $15,- 000. Recently an effortva made to get more insurance, but it failed. The origin of the fire is unknown: The company disposes of the garbage of Paterson, _to perform which it is under bonds to the city. The fire places them in a bad fix, as they now' have no place to burn their garbage: The city ordinance will not permit them to dump the garbage anywhere. Poole’s Bank Fails Again. 1me, Pa, ~_Dec. 17.—Much excitement was caused here when the announcement was made that the' bank of P. S. Poole do Son had assigned. The firm says it, could not recover from the shock caused by a former suspension. A large sum has been withdrawn from the bank within the last few days, and this hastened the assignment. The statement is advanced by the firm that every claim will be met. In Favor of “roman Suffrage. BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Dec. 17.—President Gompers’ report to the national convention of the Federation of Labor, now in session Ezere, flrows that over 270,000 workmen have memorialized congress in favor of \the pro- posed sixteenth amendment to the federal constitution forbidding all states to exclude women from voting. ” Ruined by Gambling. ST. LOUIS, Dec. 17.—A shortage of $10,000 is reported in the accounts of Secretary Hesser, of the Standard Future Great and Keystone Building and Loan assOciation. He has turned over enough property to make good the loss. Gambling is attributed. as the cause of the shortage. The Baitinrore at 031130.

Prove a Dangerous Spark. HEARING THE INEVITABLE. Russia Is Undoubtedly Behind France in the Platter, and the Two Countries Are Working .in Concert—Hence the Significance of the Affair. PARIS, Dec. 17.—The refusal of. the Bul- garian government to grant France the sat- - isfaction the latter country demanded for the expulsion of M. Chadouine, a French journalist, from Bulgaria, ccztinues to be the most exciting ‘cpic of on Iversation in diplomatic circles. The gravity of the step taken by the French government in sever- ing diplomatic relations with Bulgaria is acknowledged by all intelligent persons, and nobody ve‘rsed in the delicate questions involved in Balkan diplomacy denies that this inCident forms a spark dangerous enough -to light the torch of war in Europe. . No reasonable person loses sight of the afact that it is just such apparently insignifi— cant incidents as these great wars in the’ past. Besides, the recent "move on the political chessboard, the drei- that have led to bond -~ramifications, Cronstadt festivities, commercial treaties, negotiations, M. de Gier’s travels and other such matters have all tended to draw deeper the line separat- ing France and Russia from the rest of Europe and still further paving the way for the great struggle which must come sooner or later. _ Consequently, with Europe in this state of combustion, the smallest sparks, the slightest signs of fire, in fact, smoke alone is sulficient not only to cause alarm, but to constitute actual danger that'the peace of Europe may be broken before all the great plans are per 'ected. How the Press Views It. The Cologne Gazette says that the French consulate (where M. Chadouine was em- ployed as a clerk; and from which place he 3 sent the journalistic utterances complained of) was really a center and a screen for all intrigues adverse to Bulgarian interests, and adds that it would be to the zub'antage of Bulgaria, that the “detestable,“lrnderhand work should cease with the diplomatic rep- resentation of France. The Berlin Tagblatt, referring to the same subject, says that Prince Ferdinand was about to yield to the demands of France for satisfaction and for readmission of M. Cha- douine into Bulgaria, when M. Stambuloff, the Bulgarian premier, who seems to hold the destinies of Bulgaria in his hands, de- clared that he would resign if the prince yielded. According to the Tagblatt, Prince Ferdinand thereupon concluded to take the advice offihis powerful minister and to re- main firm against the pressure brought to bear upon Bulgaria by France. The N eue Frei Presse, of Vienna, says that one of the causes of M. Chadouine’s animosity toward the present government of Bulgaria is the fact that I. Chadouine was much patronized by Prince Alexander when the latter reigned over Bulgaria. So much so that M- Chadouine put on airs as if he assumed to be the protector of Prince Alexander’s interests in Bulgaria. He had 'recently been writing satirical accounts, said to be “inspired,” of Bulgarian affairs to various newspapers, in which he pro- tested against the “mutilation of Turkish territory,” and held that it was scandalous that a petty state like Bulgaria should be allowed to trample on treaties. The Times, of London, says that France» will not gain anything by calling upon Tur- key to avenge outraged treaties. The inter- est of Turkey, The Times claims, would be best served by the maintenance of a buffer state. The Times then addresses a stern warning to both Bulgaria and France, say- ing that although it might suit Russia for the Sultan to quarrel with Bulgaria it would be prudent for M. Stambuloif to restrain the vehemence of his passion. “But,” The Times significantly adds, “his punishment must consist of quarantine alone.” Where the Real- Danger Lies. The above'utterances will give some ~. idea of the actual importance of the apparently insignificant fact that a journalist has been expelled from Bulgaria. Journalists are ex- pelled, it is true, from certain countries, Germany especially, very frequently; but it is not frequent, to say the least, that a. great power severs its diplomatic relations witha dangerous little “buffer” power on account of such expulsion. In other words, the gravity of the incident is not in the expulsion of M. Chadouine from Bulgaria, but, in the fact that a great power like France, practically allied for of- fensive and defensive purposes, under cer- tain secret conditions, to Russia, the enemy of the Turk and the Bulgar as now gov- erned has thought this action important enough to cause her to assume amost se- rious attitude toward that little power. France, it may be concluded, has not taken the step referred to without consultation with Russia;hence the real danger in the Chadouine incident. . Advocating Physical Force. PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 17.—A secret cir- cular has been issued by the Alexander Sullivan wing of the Clan-na—Gael to the different camps in the United States, call- ing upon Irishmen, inasmuch as parlia- mentary agitation has been unsuccessful, to return to physical force. An ofi'icer of the Clan-na-Gael here' said, “We have 20,000 men ready to strike a blow for Ireland as soon as an opportunity presents itself.” The Crew of Five Drowned.
