ness proposition brought forward in the
house today was a bill by Mr. Hopkins
(Rep, Ills.) to amend the statute fixing
district would embrace all of the states of
Illinois and. Indiana. Mr. Hopkins ex-
plained that the bill was in the interest of
the smelters of Aurora, who desired to be
able to pay the duties on Canadian tires at
the port of Chicago.
At present, he said, Aurora was not in
the district. The {bill was passed by
unanimous consent.
The oath of office was then adminis-
tered to Mr. Price (Dem., La), who had
not been present at the previous meetings
of the house.
A resolution was offered by‘hir. W. A.
Stone (Rep, Pa.) for the appointment of
three new assistants to the superintendent
of the document room, to be salaried at
$1,600, $1,200 and $1, 000, to takethe places
of officials whose offices were abolished
under the printing bill passed by the last
nngress. The resolution was agreed to.
Mr. Sayers (Dem., Tex.) offered a reso-
lution, which was agreed to, for the'ap-
pointment of Isaac Hill of Ohio as a dep-
uty sergeant—at-arms and the three other
employees agreed upon by the Democratic
caucus. ‘
After the resolution calling upon the
president for' all correspondence in the
Waller case had been introduced the house
adjourned.
Mr. Morgan‘s Speech.
The chief interest in the senate ploceed-
ings today centered in the speech which
Senator Morgan of Alabama, chairman of
the committee on foreign affairs, gave n,o-"
tico last week he would deliver on the set
tlemcnt of the Bering sea awards.
, “If the president, ” said Mr. Morgan,
in the course of his speech, “had sent to
the senate the diplomatic agreement made
by him with Great Britain, in which a
committal to the British contention is
sought‘to he apparently avoided bya com-
promise, but is, in fact, admitted without
reserve or Qualification, the vote of this
body would have settled the attitude of
the country by accepting or rejecting that
agreement. If congress should thereafter
appropriate the coveted “lump sum” to
satisfy the British demand, we would at
of the humiliating attitude of accepting
and indorsing a falsehood as the decision
of the tribunal arbitration and of paying
citizens of the United States for criminal
wrongs done to their country. '
“The reassortion by the president of the
justice and rightful'ness of the demand of
the British government, made with the
insulting arrogance of an ultimatum, re-
quires of congress that its refusal at its
last session to vote thelnmp sum of $425,-
000 to satisfy this demand should be de-
fended upon the principles and facts that
justified that vote.
“For reasons of the gravest character,
the senate has a special duty to. perform
on this occasion, in the assertion of its
rightful and undeniable constitutional
power of passing upon and accepting or
rejecting all diplomatic agreements with
foreign governments that the president
may make. .
sion of the organic law that the president
cannot act alone, or with any other body
except the senate, in any way to bind the
United States in an executory covenant
with a foreign power. -_I will never con-
sent, whatever may be his opinion of or
relations to the senate or to senators, that
the president shall confine the considera-
tion of such matters to the legislative
powers of the senate or congress, thereby

body.” '

two years have forced the issue of bonds
to recoup the depleted gold reserve, a
similar situation will confront the treas‘
ury before the new year is far advanced.
The available cash balance; in the treasury
today, including the reserve, is approxi~
mately $175,500,000, and as the govern-
ment has realized from its three bond is-
sues about $182,000,000 it appears that
but for these issues the government would
now be without one dollar in the treasury
and in addition would have outstanding
obligations amounting to about $0,500,-
000. . In the meantime the excess of ex-
penditures over receipts amounts to about
$330,000,000. ‘
Cameron Is Out of It.
\VASIIINGTON, Doc. ' lam—Senator Don
Cameron today announced formally that
he would not be a candidate under any
circumstances for re-clec‘: ion. '
He made the. announcement by making
public the following letter addressed to
Hon. Samuel J. McCarrcll of Harrisburg:

MY DEAR SENATOR—I din in receipt of your
letter of the 7th. You will remember that in

well as many other friends, that under no cir- j:
cumstances would I again be a. candidate for

quiries as to’ my wishes and intentions and
cordially‘oii’uring llltll' siiitport. It is due to
them that a public announcement should be
made in reply to their inquiries, and I take
this opportunity through the senator from my .A
native county to thank you and my friends in
every county in the state for their-more than
generous support for more than a third of a
century and to say that I have. not been, am,
not now and will not be a candidate for re-
election tothe Senate of the United States. Not
being in office, better opportunity will be af-
forded me to serve those who have served me,
and that I will do so there can be no doubt.
The Venezuela Question.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10. «The Venezue-
lan question divided with the committee
appointment-s the interest of the house to-
day. A little talk was cr'eated by the
statement that Mr. Livingston of Georgia,
thinking congress should not be kept wait-
ing until President Cleveland’s return to
be informed of the contents of Lord Salis-
bury’s reply, would introduce a resolution
calling upon Secretary Olney for the cor-'
respondencc. As this would be a'rathcr
unusual mode of procedure several influ-
both lepublicans and
Democrats, suggested to Mr. Livingston
that such a resolution might be construed
as an act of discourtesy to the president.
Pecklmm Will Be Confirmed.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-——The senate ju-
diciary committee has reported the nomi-
nation ‘of Rufus W. Peekham of New
York to be associated justice of the su-

confirmation. The committee also agreed
to report favorably the. nomination of
Judges Springer, Kilgore and Stuart.

€110 Good Said Pasha Still Under. the
British Embassador’s Protection, While
the ‘Viclced Said Pasha Is to
Be Blade Grand Vizier.
LONDON, Dec. 10.1—The Constantinople,
correspondent of The Times writes: “I
believe that an irad'c is imminent appoint-
..Lligfim. Kurd, Said Paulie, grand vizier.
The Said Pasha who is at the British em-
bassy is named Kutchuk Said and is not
to be confounded with the Said Pasha
above mentioned, who is to be appointed
grand vizier. ‘ I learn that Kutchuk Said
- has determined to leave the country.”
The Times also prints 8. letter from Erzo-
rum, under date of Nov. 17, which says:
; “All the refugees in the American mission
5 have returned to their homes, but the
. Christian schools have not yet, started
‘ again, nor is any divine service being
1 held. Many children have died fromthe
-‘ exposure and irregular diet. The efforts
3 of the government to compel the Turks to
restore stolen property meet with scant
success. The poverty is extreme. The
veil feeds the poor with road, but the
quality of it is bad. The Armenians fear
i to reopen their shops, and they ridicule
:the idea that any reform will be put in
l: gxecution. The veil and other oflicials
admit that 05 per cent of the Christians
killed were innocent. Undoubtedly a few
of thcArmenians were blamable, but they
might easily have been arrested without
the necessity of a wholesale slaughter.”
A Home dispatch to The Chronicle says,
“An official statement from Constantino-
ple that the number of the Armenian vic-
tims amounts to (50, 000 has produced a son-
i sation.”.
The members of the Young Turkey par-
ty are highly gratified at the determined
attitude assumed by Said Pasha in put-
ting himself under the protection of the
British embassy and refusing to place
himself under the influence or in the pow-
er of the'palace part-y. The leaders of the
party are very hopeful that the action of
Said will have the effect to destroy the
system of tyranny which has so long pro-
vailcd at the palace and openly express
their feelings upon the subject.
llIissinnaries Flee.
,A communication from
ceived by United States Minister Terrell
refers to the report that the Americans at
that place had concealed woaponsin their
houses to be distributed among the Arme-
nians. To refute this story. the letter
says all of the Americaneflat Kharput
wont to the government offices and hand:
ed over five revolvers, which comprised
everywegpon they possessed. They even,
after giving up their own arms, induced
the Armenians to give up what guns and
pistols they had.
the day after this surrender was made.
The batteries of artillery which were
planted upon the hill overlodking the
town fired into the buildings occupied by
the missions, but the Turks have since
pretended that the shots were intended
for the Kurds, who had raided the valley
between the hill and the missionary com-
pound. One shell crashed intothe study
of the Rev. Dr. N. H. Barnum of Leices~
tor, Mass, penetrated a bookcase and ex-
ploded in a wall of the room. .As the mis-
sionaries and the others conupyin’g the
mission buildings were leaving to seek
refuge elsewhere .a cannon ball swept
through the narrow passage through
which they were moving, but fortunately
did not strike anybody. Four of the refu-
gees werc Wounded by rifle shots.
The Times has a dispatch from Con-
stantinople that M. Nelidoft‘, the Russian
cmbassador, informed the representatives-
of _the other powers that he was prepared
to follow up the guardship question. The
message that the embassador delivered to
the sultan was in connection with this
matter. The representatives are awaiting
theresult of M. Nelidofl’s audience with
his majesty.
