Representative Loud Presents Several

Plans For the Improvement of the
Service—Rural Delivery—Other
Washington Notes.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.—-The attendance
of members was very large when the house
met today, but the galleries were almost
deserted. N o programme had been ar-
ranged before the house met. After the
journal had been read there was a hurried
consultation of Mr. Dingley and other Re-
publican leaders, as a result of which it
was decided to proceed with the regular
order, the call of committees.

Mr. Loud (Rep, Cal. ), from the com-
mittee on postofiices and pest roads, called
up a. bill to authorize the use of private
mailing cards of the same weight and
form as the postal cards now in use when
a 1 cent stamp is affixed. The bill, he

said, had been approved by the postofiice

department, as it would tend to popular-
ize postal cards, besides affecting a saving
to the government of the difference be~

tween the cost of the cards and the stamps.

The scheme had been successfully put
in operation in England, where in six

. months the number of such cards mailed

had increased from 248,000,000 to 334,-
000,000.

The bill was passed. It takes effect
July 1, 1897. He also called up a bill to
provide a limited indemnity for the loss
of registered mail matter. It provided an
indemnity not to exceed 810 for any one
registered letter, but, if of less value, not
to exceed the actual value.

This bill was also approved by the post-
office department. Such an indemnity is
made by nearly all the foreign countries.
The postmaster general expressed the opin-
ion that the increased revenue from regis-
tered mail would more than offset the in-
demnity losses to be paid.

Last year, Mr. Loud said, 11,744,000
pieces of registered mail matter had been
transmitted with a loss of but 500 pieces,
or 'on the basis of last year’s statistics the
government could have a revenue of $900,-
000 with a. liability of $50,000. There was
some criticism of the bill on the ground
that it trespassed on the rights of express
companies. .

.Mr. Hepburn (Rep, Ia.) proposed that
the government should charge 1 per cent
on the value of each package registered
and pay the full value in case of loss, but
in no case to exceed $100.

The bill was passed—76 to 13.

Mr. Loud then called up the bill of Mr.
Sperry (Rep, Conn.) to authorize the col-
lection and delivery of mail in cities,
towns and villages where no letter carrier
service exists, by the employment, under
mutual arrangement between the citizens
and any person in such place to perform
this service at a. cost not exceeding 1 cent
for the delivery of each letter or package.
The expense of delivery under the terms of
the bill is to be borne by the beneficiaries,
and there is no liability so far as the gov-
ernment is concerned. Mr. Sperry said
that there was a strong demand for the
passage of the bill from New England'and
from other farming sections. It would in
efi'ect, he Said, bea revival of the old penny

0st.

The bill was passed.

In the Senate.

In the senate today many’petitions were
presented from manufacturing bodies
urging the passage of the Dingley bill.

The early opening of a Cuban discus-
sion was foreshadowed by a notice from
Mr. Cullom (Rep, Ills.) that on Thurs-
day next he would address the senate on
the Cuban question.

The house resolutions relative to the
death of ex-Speake'r Crisp were then laid
before the senate. Mr. Bacon (Dem, Ga.)
stated that at a later day he would ask
that a day be set for culogies on the dis-
tinguished Georgian. As a mark of re-
spect to the deceased the senate at 12:25
adjourned.

How Britishers Regard the Message.

LONDON, Dec. 9.—The Pall Mall Gazette
this afternoon, commenting upon Presi-
dent Cleveland’s message to congress, says:
“There is nothing in the message unsatis-
factcory to Great.- Britain. So far as Cuba

‘ is concerned, President Cleveland’s neither

diplomatic nor politic language will please
neither Spain nor the insurgents. "

The Globe sees in the message “Monroe-
ism thrusting itself forward in the usual
menacing fashion” and doubts if Mc-
Kinley will be “grateful to his predecessor
for bequeathing him the task of bullying
Spain.”

The St. James Gazette contrasts the
“polite, cautious tone" of the message
with the “masterly sage of a year ago on
a similar topic” and says:

“The "conditions in Cuba undoubtedly
give the United States the right to call
upon Spain to enforce her authority speed-
ily or acknowledge that her inability to
Suppress anarchy has deprived her of her
right to be considered as governing the is-

) land. ”

The Message In Havana.
HAVANA, Dec. 9,—President Cleveland’s
message has been received at the palace.
The suppressed excitement noticeable in

the bearing of the officials shows the inter-

est with which the message is regarded.
Whfi the representatives of the govern-
ment are extremely courteous they refuse
to give any information on the subject. ‘

River and Harbor Work.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9. —It is expected that
a number of resolutions will be introduced
into congress inquiring of the secretary of
war why contracts have not been made at
various polntsfor beginning river and bar-
bor work in accordance with the provi-
sions of the river and harbor act, and also
why certain work has not .been ordered
where contracts are not necessary. Sena-
tors and representatives from districts for
which appropriations have been made,
upon arriving in the city, have visited the

war department with their complaints._

The replies received to their inquiries hav
not, use. rule, been satisfactory, and the
expectation is that the secretary of war will
be asked to make a public repiyto con-
gross.

__For Permanent Census Service.‘

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.—In accordance
with the provisions of a joint resolution
the commissioner of labor has submitted
to congress a plan for a permanent census
service. A permanent force of from 200
to 300 persons would be necessary, which
would be augmented ternpdrarily each ten
years. The cost of such an office, he thinks,
should be less than that of the eleventh
census, about $8,000,000. A properties

of the expense, however, would be borne
by other departments. ' '- ”

of Russia. and France have accepted the
invitations of this government to be repre-
sented at the universal postal congress in
this city next May. Each probably will
send two delegates. Acceptances from oth-
er governments arrive daily. About 100
accredited representatives are expected.

Denial of a Report. '

WASHINGTON, Dec. 9. rHenry C. Payne
of Wisconsin, Who was reported in a dis-
patch from Milwaukee to have resigned
the vice presidency of the Milwaukee Elec-
tric Railway and Light company, said to-
day that the report was without founda-
tion.

Indian Deprodation Cases.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 9. —— The attorney
general has sent to congress a list of judg-
ments in favor of claimants in Indian
depredatlon cases to the number of 52

and ranging from $175 to $19,012.

‘ Labor Bureau Expenses.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.—The commission-
er of labor in a statement to congress re-
ports that there was expended $171,606 by

his bureau during the fiscal year.

MANITOBA’S SCHOOLS.

Minister Tarte's Defense of His Course.
Opinions of the Press.

MONTREAL, Dec. 9. -— The
school question is still the absorbing topic
both on the platform and in the press. J.
I. Tarte, the minister of public works, in a
recent speech at Cornwall, endeavored to
show the inefficiency and mismanagement
of the separate schools in Manitoba before
1890. As an instance, he stated that Sen-
ator Bernier, who was superintendent of
the separate schools, had not visited the
schools once 'during his whole term of
office. Senator Bernier, _who received a

' salary of $4,000 a year as such, had drawn

$8,000 one year for translating documents
from French into English. In conclusion
Mr. Tarts said that he had been called a
bad Catholic because he had said that they
were all members of the same Christian
family and that their children should be
brought up together. He added that he
would rather be defeated a hundred times
than retract that statement.

Le Quotidien holds that Mr. Tarts is
waging a war on the clergy. “We are
warned now,” it says, “that the extermi-
nation of the Catholics is a job for two. We
have only one ansWer: Be mindful of the
accidents of war. The Catholics by acci-
dent will have to sustain a. heavy fight
against the Catholics by principle. ”

L’Evenement says: “The Catholic hier-
archy will certainly not go back on the
stand it has taken on the Manitoba schools
to approve of. a settlement which sacrifices

formally guaranteed to the Catholics. The
statements of Mgr. Langevin and Mgr.
O’Brien leave no doubt on that question. ”

Le Progres de Valleyfield advises the
French Catholics of Manitoba to give the
school law as amended 3. fair trial, and if
it is found unsatisfactory and Mr. Green-
way has made up his mind to drive our
compatriots from Manitoba, it will then
be the duty of French Canadians to take
means to bring the confederation to an
end. .

R Western Volunteers For Cuba.

KANKAKEE, Ills, Dec. 9.—A company
of 20 young men went south last night
over the Illinois Central railroad bound
for New Orleans. There they will be
joined by 60 others from various parts of
the United States, and the entire party
will ship for Cuba on the first outgoing
vessel and will join the insurgents. The
party was in command of J. B. Hartman,
who was a regular in the United States
army, and saw much hard fighting in the
Indian campaigns in western Dakota and
Montana. .

A Double llIurderer Lynchod.

MEMPHIS, Dec. 9.—Jim Davis, the negro
who while hunting with them killed a 13-
year-old boy and seriously wounded anoth-
er, aged 11, some of Joe Williams, his em-
ployer, was captured in the woods near
here. Instead of bringing him to this
city, his captors took him in a southerly
direction, stating that they were going to
take him to the house of the father of his
victims, but it is an open secret that Davis
was hanged.

Illegal Insurance.

BUFFALO, Dec. 9.—-District Attorney
Kenefick, after correspondence with Super-
intendent Pierce of the state insurance de-
partment, will ask for the indictment of
the local agent and canvassers for the In-
ternational Fraternal alliance of Balti-
more, a corporation which Superintendent
Pierce certifies under the seal of his de-
partment to be doing business illegally in
this state.

For a New City Hall at Atlantic City.

ATLANTIC CITY, Dec. 9.—At a meeting
of the city council the city hall commis-
sion, which was appointed to secure plans
for the erection of a new city hall to take
the place of the buildings burned last year,
made its report. The commission recom-
mended the expenditure of $300,000. The
site suggested is bounded by Atlantic,
Arctic, North and South Carolina avenues.

CHICAGO, Dec. 9,—Henry Owen O’Con-
nor, one of the chief witnesses in the fa-
mous Cronin murder trial, committed ‘sui-

worry over his condition is supposed to be
the cause of the deed.

OONRRRRRR SESSION.

First Day at ,the National Capitol
Merely One of Routine.

NEW MEMBERS SWORN IN.

Eloquent Prayer of the Chaplain In the
Senate—Tho Usual Scenes Attendant
Upon the Opening of Congress
at Washington.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 8.-—Congress reas-
sembled teday with bright sunshine, a
gently bracing air, a. temperature running
from 40 to 55 degrees and both halls of as-
sembly renovated and purified and venti-
lated in a manner more nearly conforming
to hygienic requirements than has ever be-
fore been attempted.

During the recess the flooring of the sen—
ate chamber had been torn up and the
whole system of forcing air into the interi-
or changed. The sides of each desk are
now hollow and connected with the ven-
tilating plant, so that a regulated supply
of properly heated or cooled air withput
draft of any sort enters the chamber
through the opening at the bottom of each
desk. In the same manner air is forced in
between fine wire netting at each terrace
of the floor. In the gallery the old benches
have given way to modern opera seats,
each ventilated in the same manner.

The several hundred gas jets that for-
merly illuminated the chamber through
the false ceiling have been dispensed with,
and in their place incandescent lights will
dispel the shadows of night. Automatic
thermometers and thermostats have been
arranged, and everything that science and
skill could do has thus been done to make
the senate wing of the building as habit-
able as possible. The electric lighting has
been carried to the outside grounds.

There was not by any means a full at—
tendance of senators when Vice President
Stevenson rapped the senate to order;
though many of the grizzled veterans were
on hand. Central among them and the
recipient of many congratulations on
Ohio’s success at the late election was John
Sherman, now entering upon his forty-first
year of congressional service. .

Among the prominent absentees in the
early hours of the session, many of whom,
however. subsequently put in an appear-
ance, were Senators Allison of Iowa, Bate
of Tennessee, Blackburn of Kentucky;
Blanchard, Louisiana; Call, Florida; Chil-
ton, Texas; Clark, Wyoming; George, Mis-
sissippi; Gordon, Georgia; Gray, Delaware;
Hill, New York: Jones, Nevada; Kyle,
South Dakota; Mitchell and McBride, Ore-
gon; Murphy. New York; Nelson, Minne-
sota; Palmer, Illinois; Pasco, Florida;
Perkins, California; SeWell, New Jersey;
Teller, Colorado; Tillman, South Caro-
lina; Warren, Wyoming; White, California.

In the House.

The house presented a. bright and cheer-
ful appearance when the galleries were
thrownropen to visitors. The old carpets
had been replaced, and the brass furnish-
ings of the chamber had been scoured un-
til they were as bright as a gold dollar.
The galleries were crowded to overflowing
long before Speaker Reed called the house
to order.

The members of the house, like the oc-_

cupants of the galleries, began to put in
an appearance as early as 10 o’clock, al-
though the hour of meeting was noon.

The roll call showed the presence of 871
members. As soon as the speaker an-
nounced the presence of a quorum, and
that the house was ready to proceed to
business, a dozen members demanded rec-
ognition, but the speaker first received
the usual message from the senate stating
that that body had a quorum present and
was ready to proceed to business.

J. William Stokes then came forward
and was sw0rn in as a member from the
Seventh congressional district of South
Carolina. The credentials lof Charles J.
Boatner, from the Fifth district of Louisi-
ana, were read also.

The usual formal resolutions for the ap-
pointment of a committee to join a similar
committee of the senate and inform the
president that the house was ready to pro-
ceedto business, and another directing the
clerk to inform the senate that the house
was prepared to proceed, were adopted.

The speaker appointed Mr. Cannon
(Ills. ), Mr. Payne (N. Y.) and Mr. Turner
(Ga) to constitute the committee. The
selection of Mr. Turner was considered a
significant indication that the GeOrgia
member would succeed (ax-Speaker Crisp
as a member of the committee on rules, as
it was a formal recognition of him as the
leader on the Democratic side. In order
to await the report of the committee the
house, on the motion of Mr. Henderson
(13.), took a recess until 1:30 p. m., when
the president’s message was received and
read.

' The Senate at \Vork.

The chaplain referred feelingly to the ill-
ness of Mr. Allison and. besought his speedy
restoration to health. He spoke of. the re-
cent —exciting political contest through
which the country had passed, marked, he
said, by afreedom from much of the ran-
cor and scandal mongery of the former
years and by a quick and calm acceptance
of the results by the whole nation. Peace
with all nations, prosperity to our indus-
tries and the upbuilding of all our people
in the grand brotherhood of American cit-
izens were eloquently invoked.

The roll call showed 70 senators present.
Mr. Cullom was the first to receive recog-
nition, and his resolution that the house
of representatives be notified that the sen-
ate was in session and ready to proceed
with business was agreed to without com-
ment. ' Mr. Hale followed with a resolu-
tion that the daily. hour for meeting be

noon, which was agreed to.
. Mr. Sherman made the customary mo- $2

tion for a committee of senators and mem-
bers to wait upon the president, and upon
its adoption the presiding officer named
Mr. Sherman and Mr. Smith (Dem., N ._
J.) as the members of the committee.

Mr. MOI-rill (Rep, Vt.) was the first to
suggest anything in the nature of legislse-I
tive business by presenting-several pett-
tions asking for the passage of the Dinghy
bilL He yielded, however, to Mr. Boar’s
suggestion that all business bedeferred. as
a matter of courtesy, until the president
and house of representatives had been
communicated with, and thereupon at
12:15 p. In. the Senate took a recess until 1
o’clock, when the message was received
and read.

Money For Pensions.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 8. —-The first appro
priation bill of the session was finished by
the house committee on appropriations to-
day and reported to the house, so that it
may be, passed this week. It is the pen-
sion bill, which carries a total of $141,263,-
380, a decrease of about $65,000 from, the
estimates of the commissioner of pensions.

COLONEL rsLLows DEAD. '

New_ YOrk‘s - Eloquont District Attorney
. Joins the Silent Majority. '

NEW YORK, Dec. 8.—Colonel John R.
Fellows. district attorney of New York
tounty, died this afternoon, surrounded by
all the members of his family, with the ex-
ception of John R. Fellows, Jr., who ar-
rived anhour or so after the end had come.

 

John R. Fellows was born in the city of
Troy, N. Y., July 29, 1832, and when 18
years of age went to Camden, Ark, to
make his home with an uncle, who had
promised to . prepare him for the bar.
Young Eellovvs made rapid progress, and
in 1860 Was amember of thefirm of Bragg
8r. Fellows, which at that period had a big
reputation in the south.

Lawyer Fellows was in sympathy with
the southern» secessionists and was one of
the first volunteers in Arkansas. He joined

with distinction. ‘He took part in the bat-
tles of Shiloh and Vicksburg and was cap-
tured at the surrender of Port Hudson on
July 9, 1863. He was a prisoner two years
and one day. On his return to Arkansas
he was elected to the state senate. This
was in 1866. '

Two years later he came to New York
city and brought with him a reputatiun
lor eloquence. Tweed heard him and had
him appointed assistant district attorney.
He joined the County Democracy after
Tweed’s downfall and in 1887 was elected
district attorney. He was next sent to
congress by Tammany Hall. Before his
term expired he was again elected district
attorney. Few cases were personally con-
ducted by District Attorney Fellows. He
rarely appeared in capital cases, but sur-
rounded himself with many able assistants.
District Attorney Fellows was an able jury
pleader, a dramatic and logical speaker
and an active politician. In the recent
campaign he bolted Bryan and stumped
Kentucky, Missouri, West Virginia and
Tennessee for Palmer.

FOR TURKISH REFORMS.

and Great Britain.

CONSTANTINOPLE, Dec. 8. —'Husni Pasha,
Turkish ambassador to Russia, has tele-
graphed to the ports informing the Turk-
ish government of the existence of a. com-
plete understanding between Russia and
Great Britain in regard to the enforcement
of reforms in Turkey.

This information has created a sensation
in the sultan’s circle. M. Nelidoff, Rus-
sian embassador to Turkey, who is now on
his way back to ConstantinOple from a
visit to St. Petersburg, will, it is under-
stood, call a conference of the ambassadors
immediately upon his return to his post to
discuss the questions of financial and other
reforms in Turkey and the opening of the
Dardanelles.

turned to New York last night. The trip
has no further significance than that Mr.

derbilt system of railroads, at least until
Cornelius Vanderbilt fully recovers, desires
to become familiar with the improvements
that have been made and those that are
needed on the Big Four system.

theme of so much discussion, will, it is
further believed, now be dropped for good
and all.

to date and a little in advance of all
other remedies for a specified com-
plaint. Medical theory of old times
hold that a medicine containing a little
of each kind for every ill should make
a remedy for all complaints. We laugh
at such foolishness to-day and .wonder
it was ever thought wisdom. The max-
im to-day is learn what the disease is
and apply theremedy which has proven
the most direct and radical. Special-
ties rule the day, and a single organ,
its disorders and how to cure it, is the
highest distinction in the medical pro-
fession. 'lhc kidneys are wonderfully
constructed. Do you know just what
their functions are? They are the lab-
oratories of the body for the RENOVA-
TING of the blood BEFORE ITS
USE AGAIN. Read that carefully.
Every pulsation of the heart sends out
the blood to give life to the body.

When it picks up the poisons in its"

course it aces to the kidneys to be
made new for use again. If the kidneys
are weak they cannot do the work,
and- uric poison stamps out the life of
the blood. Doan’s Kidney Pills cor-
rect all disorders of the kidneys and
keep these laboratories true purifiers
of the blood. Norwalk people are fast
learnmg this. Read the following case:

Mrs. Joseph Whitley, residing at No.
51 Belden avenue, hasn’t had a new set
of kidneys, she hardly needed that,
still she had to plumb up the old ones
as they had become clogged and. as a
consequence she was a sufi'erer from
backache. Queer expression isn’t it,
plumb the kidneys; but it’s right.
Dean’s Kidney Pflls are nature’s plumb-
ers and it was simply the working of
these little wonders on the kidneys that
done away the headache for Mrs. Whit-
ley. She says in brief:-—-—"I got a box
of Doau’s Kidney Pills at Glendenning

& Co.’s drug store and took them for 4

backache with satisfactory results. I
recommend them to my friends.”
Doan’s Kidney Pills are for sale by
all dealers. Price 50 cents. Mailed by
Foster-Milburncomnanv, Buffalo, N. Y.
Sole agents for the United States.
Eczema in any part of the body is in-
stantly relieved and permanently cured
by Dean’s Ointment. the sovereign
remedy for all itchiness of the skin.
