.note to The Tribune here last night:

(To the Editor of The Tribune:

MILLS TO REDUCE \VAGES.

New England Manufacturers Will Make ll
Cut of 20 Per Cent.

FALL RIVER, Mass. A,ug. 22. —At a meet
ing of prominent mill treasurers held thil
morning it was voted to appoint a com-
mittee to go to Boston to discuss the
trade situation with other New England

. manufacturers and also to endeavor it
possible to secure a. uniform schedule of
Wages to be paid on the cotton industry.

It is stated on the best authority that o

reduction Of 20 per cent in the wages paid
- here will be made as soon as the mills re-
sume operations.

It is proposed to cut down the price 01
weaving from 21 to 167 cents per out, and
other wages in the difierent department!
will be cut in the same proportion. Should
business pick up within a. few weeks. so
tion on this schedule will be deferred, but
sooner or later a. readjustment will be en-
forced.-

. Today’s meeting ~ lasted only half an
hour, but the outline of proceedings was
pretty generally understood before the
treasurers convened.

Bufl'alo's Redistricting.

BUFFALO. Aug. 22.—Judge Height has
denied the application for a. mandamus to
compel the board of select councilman to
redistrict the wards of the city on the
ground that the motion was premature.
He holds that the statute reguiring the
redistricting of towns and cities into dis-
tricts of 400 or less to be mandatory, but
that the councilmen have 30 days prior to
election day to makea redistricting if they
so determine.

Cleveland Burned In Effigy.

TEXARKANA, Ark., Aug. 22.—A body of ’

Texas Democrats, about 10 miles across
the line from here, adopted resolutions de-
nouncing Cleveland as the enemy of the
people. They then hanged the president in
efligv, riddled the body with bullets, and
the efiigy was burned. ‘

A well dressed man leaning against a
lamppost and apparently sleeping the-
sleep of the just created a. great deal of
interest in a busy London street the
other day He -sat on a box which he

had been carrying»;
Evidently, being suddenly. overcome

:with drowsiness, he had placed the box

on the curbstone, and sitting down upon;
it had fallen asleep. To those who suc-
ceeded in getting close encugh to the
man his gentle, restful snore disbelled
the fear that he might be dead. The ,
side of his face was. exposed and be-
trayed no sign of intoxication. it was
the judgment of every one that he was
sober,i 11 good health and simply taking
a quiet snooze.

W hen the crowd became so deep as to

A ' threaten 3. blockade, thesupposed sleeper
suddenly jumped to his feet, mounted

his box, and flourishing. a couple of bot-
tles over his head exclaimed: .

“Now, gent-s. seein that you are all
here, I rise to a question Of privilege.
and after thankin you’ fix this most cor-
dial reception, which I assure you will
long remain upon the tablets of my

Reading of the Schoolboy.

Habits are contracted and characters
formed early in life, and it is probable
that the color of a person’s reading is
mainly determined during the time of
hobbledehoydom, when he is in process
of passing ..from the limp and lanky
schoolboy to-the set and rigid man. Just
at this time'l'is a most critical period in
his career, for now it is that he obtains
a new outlook into life. Previously he
has been concerned with. the miniature
world of school and looked at the great-
er world only with the eyes of a school-
boy. But now, entering a business or a

profession, he enters into a larger life and ,

begins to look about him with an air of

‘ deeper inquiry. And the more he reads

of contemporary literature the worse
does he become, for the air is thick with
controversy; Nothing is too sacred to
be contradicted. and thespirit of “sweet
reasonableness" seems to be dead.»

. Pretty Cold Weather.

Two boatmen on the Ohio river were
talking about cold weather and of a cer-
tain severe winter. “It was just awful,"
"At Cincinnati the
river was froze tight, and the thermom-
eter went down to 20 degrees below
Cairo."

“Below which?" asked his puzzled
companion.

“Below Cairo, you blubberheadl You
see, when it freezes at Cairo it must be
pretty cold, so they say so many degrees
below Cairo.”

But light was bursting in upon the
other. “No, they do not,"‘he exclaimed
eagerly. “Ydu’ve got it all wrong. it’s
so many degrees below Nero. 1 do not
know what. it means, but that’s what
they say when it’s dreadful cold. ”-Har—

WASHINGTON. Aug. 22.--Except for the
interest that will attach to some closing
hours of the house debate, the attention of

(the country during' the week will be con-

tered upon the doings of- the senate. The.
real battle is to take place there, and the
preliminary skirmishing which began by

the speech of Mr. Vest of Missouri a few-

days ago was supplemented todayby the
speech of Mr. M orlill in favor of the Year-
hees bill will be continued by the great
effort Of Senator Voorhees tomorrow in
behalf of his double headed bill.

As a genera1=proposilion it maybe stated .

with perfect safety that there-are 12 to 15
Democratic senatéirs in favor Of uncondi-
tional repeal and from 25 to 35 who are
either opposed to unco‘uditional repeal, or
who are opposed to it unless they can get
something acceptable to take its place.

About 25 of the Republican senators are _

in favor of repeal, and from 154-139 20 of
them will vote either against repeal or for
some of the amendments to be proposed
by the free silver senators. In other words,
there are about 10 more Democrats who

t . 2‘ '
are opposed o a straight out uncondf Vvdeposition from the chairmanship of the

tional lepeal than there are qt those in
favor of such action, so that: as the sen-
ate stands today a vote for unconditional
repeal would be defeated.

Silver Senators “'eaken'ing.

It must be admitted, however, that as
day after day goes by without action, and
with the pressure from the people who are
suffering from financial distress becoming
stronger and stranger, the silver senators
begin to weaken. \Vith this state of things
the men who are working for repeal are
leaving no stone unturned to make con-
verts, and they have been making some
headway, and will make more from now
on as the day for the final vote approaches

. and the people continue their cry for relief.

, An impression is growing about the cap-
itol that the present extraordinary session

Of congress may come to an end about the

middle of September. This appears to be

based upon confidence in the possibilities.

of a compromise being entered into within
that period upon .the financial questiOn.
Those persons who hold to the Opinion that
adjournment is possible next month say
that Mr. Vest’s proposition to provide for
free coinage of silver at a ratio of 20 to 1
will be passed by the senate and ultimate-
ly will bec0me a part of- the bill for un.
conditional repeal, which, it is ',expected

will be passed by the house.

Senator Quay yesterday vacated his
apartments .in the N ormandle for an in-
definite period and journeyed back to
Pennsylvania. The senator was one of the
first to put in an appearance after the spe-
cial session was called. Now he says that
there seems to ‘be no need for him here, and
he intends to take a vacation in a cooler
climate. The Pennsylvania senator is
paired with Senator Morgan of Alabama
and could not vote until the return Of the
latter from Paris.

In Senate and House.

WASHINGTON,‘ Aug. 22. a—Numerous bills
which had been introduced and were pend-
lng' 1n the last congress were reintroduced
today and referred to committees.

A substitute for the national bank cur-
rency bill was offered by Mr. Pefi’er (Pop. .,
Kan.) proposing the issue of $250, 000, 000 of
treasury notes, to be deposited in the treas-
ury and to be available as cash.

A resolution was offered by Mr. Chan-
dler (Rep. , N. H. ) declaring that there was
no lawful election of United States sena-
tor in Kansas when Mr. .Martin was de-
glared elected; also one looking to the
opening of a must line of waterways.
These were referred to committees.

Mr Morlill (Repi, Vt. ) then asked and
obtained indefinite leave of absence after
today on account of ill health. He then

addressed the senate in favor of the bill'

reported from the finance committee last
Friday to discontinue the purchase of sil-
Ver bullion.

His speech, v. hich was read, here the
motto “Sound money cheats nobody.”

~He frankly‘ avowed that he did not yet

abandon all hope]: of bimetallism. After
the repeal of the-purchasing clauses of the
Sherman act the country would not be de-
pendent on gold - alone, as there would be
in the treasury ‘thuch , more silver than
gold and much more paper currency than

ever before, and ’the silver dollar would.

not be demonetiz‘ed. .
After readingof the journal Mr. Pow-
srs (Rep, Vt.) tOOk the floor' in support of

the repeal of the purchasing clause of the ,

Sherman act.
Mr. Hooker (Benn, Miss.) spoke against

the repeal, believing that no relief would ,

come to the country from that repeal.
The president’ said that the depression
came from a lack Of confidence.
lack of confidence was not in the great
masses of the. people, but in the great mona
ey institutions that were locking up the
currency of the country.

Mr. Cooper of Indiana spoke next. His
remarks were against the free coinage of
silver. To repeal the purchasing clause
would not strike down or kill silver. In
his opiniOn it would lift it up and make it
Equal to- the gold dollar.

After the announcement of the commit-
tee appointments, on motion of Mr. Bland
Saturday next was set apart for general
debate“ instead of five minute debate on
the repeal.

Springer Greatly Surprised. ‘ '

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.’ ——When iisked for

a statement as to the reasons which im-

pelled the speaker to depose him frgm the

chairmanship of the ways and means com-
mittee, Mr. Springer said: ,

“To say that I am surprised at my

ways and means committee and appoint-
ment as chairman of the committee On
banking and currency_ is only a feeble ex-

» pression of the truth. I have had no in-

timation from the speaker whatever as to
his failure to reappoint or as to his inten-
tiOn‘ to make me chairman Of the other
cummitteé.~-‘

mittee to the business of which I have
given but littlp attention heretofore. I
know- nothing 0 the motives of the speak-
er or of the object he had' in view. He has as
'sured me that he desired to do that which
he thought was best for the country and
the Democratic party. I hope he is not
mistaken but opinions may differ. I do
not care to make a further statement at
this time. ”

Oates’ Committee Plan.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 22. ..—R_epresentative

duction of an amendment to the rules of.
the house, investing in the house itself the
appointment of committees, something
after the fashion followed in the sepate.
There each party appoints a “steeririg
committee,” which does the clerical werk
of arranging, the committees, and after
their selection has been approved the choice
is ratified by formal action of the senate.
At the beginning of every congress iii re-
cent years .the plan outlined above or
something similar to it has been breached

of it and the indications are now- that the
time is. not ripe for the change.
