The Georgia SWWants Arbitra.
tion With Everybody.
TEXT OF HIS RESOLUTION.
He Thinks Enunciatlon of Policy of Peace
by Congress W’ill Have More Ef-
fect Than Treaties—Another
Union Pacific Measure.
\
WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—Thc credentials
of William F. Mason as a senator from
Illinois for the term beginning March 4
next were received by the senate today.
A motion by Mr. Hale (Rep, Me.) that
when the senate adjourn it be until Mon-
day created some opposition, and Mr.
Nelson (Rep, Minn.) demanded a roll call,
on which the motion prevailed—40 to 12.
Mr. Hawley (Rep, Conn.) presented
the credentials of his colleague, Mr. Platt,
rc-olcctcd for the term beginning March 4
next.
The senate bill was passed pensioning
Martha. Frank of Georgia at $8 per month
on the statement by Mr. Gallingcr that the
beneficiary is over 70 yours old. She is the
widow of a. soldier serving in the Indian
war of 18172.
An Important Resolution.
Mr. Bacon (130111., ("a ‘) presented the
following joint TOSHll“. '13“:
"That the United States dcprccatcs war
and desires the maintenance of peace and
friendship with all the world, and that
this desire is not limited to their relations
to any one nation, but extends to their re-
lations with all the nations of the earth,
whether the same be great or small, strong
or weak.
“Resolved, further, That to the end that
these relations of peace and amity now
happily existing between them and all na-
’tions may be perpetually preserved, and
that wars may be discouraged and as far
as practicable made impossible, the United
States favor the principle. and practice of
international aribtration for the settle-
ment of all questions in difference between
them and any other nation which they
may fail to adjust by treaty or diplomatic
negotiations.
“Resolved, further, That the United
States do hereby avow it as their future
policy and intention, whenever there shall
arise any question in difference between
them and any other nation which they
may fail to adjust by treaty or diplomatic
negotiation, that they shall and will, so
far as they can consistently with the na—
tional honor and established national pol—
icies, agree with such other nations to sub-
mit such questions in differnce to the ar-
bitrament and final decision of an inter-
national court of arbitration. Such court
of arbitration shall in the future, as in
the past, be constituted by agreement be-
tween parties consenting thereto with spe-
cial reference and adaptation to the par-
ticular question in difference and to the
conditions then existing. _
“ Resolved, further, That the United
States hereby invite all civilized nations to
make corresponding and reciprocal decla-
ration t0 the. world that wars between na-
tions may cease and a universal reign of
peace may be inaugurated and perpetually
maintainer .”
Mr. Bacon spoke briefly on the resolu-
tion, saying that a declaration by congress,
which is the war making power, would ox-
ert far greater influence toward peace and
against war than any treaty. He expressed
hope that a favorable report would be spe-
cially made by the committee on foreign
relations and congress would make the
declarations stated in the resolutiOns. The
resolutions were referred to the committee
on foreign relations.
Again the Union Pacific.
Mr. Allen (Pop. Neb.) offered the fol»
lowing concurrent resolution:
“Resolved, That a master’s, marshal’s
or any other judicial or executive sale of
the properties of the Union Pacific and
Kansas Pacific Railroad companies, or ei-
ther of them, without additional legisla-
tion by congress would not be binding on
the government of the United States or
conclude it of any legal or equitable right
therein now possessed unless such salc
should be subsequently ratified by congres-
sional action.”
The resolution went over without debate.
The debate on the bill for an interna-
tional monetary conference was then re—
sumed. and Mr. Vilas (I)cm., Wis.) spoke
against it. He clmracterized the bill as vi—
cious and misleading. It was wholly i1-
1usionary, perhaps deceitful, in the prom-
i‘ses it hold out and was a fundamental
acknowledgment of the theory of the Bry-
an campaign. Mr. Vilas referred sarcas-
ticully to these “pretty plays” Of interna-
tional conferences. Three of them had
proved failures, and the American people
were tired of “international forces. ”
In the House.
Immediately after the reading of the
journal Mr. Powers (Rep, Vt.) called up
the conference report on the senate bill to
define the rights of purchasers of the At-
lantic and Pacific railroad under mortgage
foreclosure.
The Arbitration Treaty.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—-’One of the ob-
stacles to the ratification by the senate of
the general arbitration treaty between the
United States and Great Britain has been
removed in the arrangement by negotiation
of a plan for the settlement of the Alaskan
boundary question. In the course of a day
or two a treaty will be laid before the sen-
ate for its action which, if ratified, will
provide the means for the final settlement
of the long standing boundary question.
Certain of the northwestern senators
have secretly opposed the general arbitra-
tion treaty because of a determination on
their part not to have this boundary ques-
tionsubmitted to arbitration. They felt
that the territory was too valuable, since
the discovery of the gold deposits there, to
run the risk of its loss through the appoint-
ment of a European umpire, and their ob-
jections were not overcome by repeated rep-
resentations to the effect that such disputes
might be easily excepted from the opera-
tions of the general treaty. N ow, however,
by the treatment of the Alaskan boundary
in a separate treaty the whole subject can
be easily remo'ved from the path of the
general treaty and disposed of in advance,
if necessary. The Special treaty is similar
in terms to the usual run of such treaties
and provides for the appointment of a. com-
mission to visit the country and fix defi—
nitely the one hundred and tenth meridian,
which, under the treaty of cession to the-
United States, forms the boundary between
that territory and the British northwest
territory.
The National Board of Trade. ,
WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-—The.. national
board of trade hascompleted the consider-
ation of the various matters that have on»
gaged its attention and adjourned ,to' meet"
u
1
in this city again l‘l T"‘cem} c“ next. Dur-
ing the 'ahifee days in whim the meeting
has lasted many mum]... of great. impor-
tance to the financial. mercantile and ma-
rine interests have been fully and freely
discussed by representative business men
from all parts of'thc country, and informa-
tion respecting the needs of individual in-
terests was gained. The board took favor—
able action on a number of propositions
that had been advanced by boards of trade
throughout the country.
Civil Service Examinations.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.—The United
States civil service commission will hold
an examination on Feb. 30 in Washing-
ton and other large cities where there are
applicants to establish registers for posi-
tions in the marine hospital service, the
steamboat inspection service, the Govern-
ment Hospital For the Insane For the Dis-
trict of Columbia and for the position of
pension examining surgeons. .
Miles on Army Reorganization.
WASHTNGTON, J an. 30.-—General Miles
of the army appeared before the house
military committee today to urge action
upon the army reorganization bill, which
has been reported to the house. His speech
was along the lines of the one he made to
the senate committee yesterday.
HEALTH OF THE CZAR.
It Is Fairly Good, but Grand Duke Mlo
01:39] Is Quite Sick.
LONDON, Jan. 29.—A dispatch to The
Telegraph, dated at St. Petersburg, says:
“Count Vorontsoff Daschkoff, minister of
the imperial court, authorizes me to affirm
in the most emphatic terms that the health
of the czar is excellent and that his maj-.
esty receives the government repOrts daily,
takes his usual walks and makes his ac-
customed visits. He has in no way changed
the routine of his life during the last few
weeks.”
Grand Duke Michael is, however, suffer-
ing from a serious attack of inflammation
of the lungs, according to the St. Peters-
burg correspondent of The Telegraph. His
eldest son has been hastily summoned from
the Caucasus region. The empress (low:
ager pays daily visits to the Grand Duke
Michael, and it is expected she will con- _
tinue to do so during his illness.
A dispatch to The Daily News from
Berlin, quoting from the St. Petersburg
letter to Die Leipziger Nachrichten, makes
statements which throw editorial light
upon the troubles of the czar. This corre-
spondent of Die Leipziger Nachrichton
says that the czar really suffers from noth-
ing more than an ordinary boil, complicat-
ed with nervous aifection due to the inci-
dents accompanying his accession, court
political struggles and numerous intrigues.
These disputes are ostensibly over the
financial schemes propoSed by M. de Witte,
Russian minister of finance. This really
amounts to a struggle for ascendency be-
tween the old Russian party and the Prog-
ressists. So warm was the discussion at
a recent council meeting that the czar
broke down entirely, tears gathered in his
eyes, and he buried his face in his hands
and cried: “Do what you like. It is all
the same to me. ”
The Caliph's Precautions. ,1
LONDON, Jan. 29.———A special to The
Daily News from Cairo says that the ca-
liph is removing all women, children and
valuables from Omdurman, on the Nile,
opposite Khartum, to E1 Obeid, the chief
city of Kordofan, fearing the immediate
advance of the Anglo-Egyptian forces.
Abdul Hamid has deserted the main por-
tion of the Berber garrison and gone to
add to the fortifications at Omdur-
man, which is being strengthened in every
way possible.
Kansas City Municipal Row.
KANSAS CITY, Jan. 29,—Jim Taylor,‘
the negro who swore before the house in-
vestigating committee on Monday that he
had bought policy tickets at the instiga-
tion of Mayor Jones, has been arrested by
the order of Chief of Police Atwood, who
charges him with perjury. In an inter-
view today Mayor Jones asserted that Tay-
lor’s arrest was the result of an effort on
the part Of the police department to re-
deem its standing. Jones says he will up-
hold Taylor.
To Protect Stock Raisers.
TOPEKA, Jan. 29.—-The Populist state
central committee has issued a. manifesto
to the Populist majority in the legislature
demanding legislation against the Kansas
City Stockyards company and the Kansas
City Live Stock Exchange to the end that
the farmers and stock raisers of Kansas
may be protected from what are termed
the exorbitant charges levied upon live
stock shipped to Kansas City.

THE nvnNiNo oAznTT
In curing con-
sumption there’s
nothing like taking
Time by the fore-
lock.' Doctors say
consumption can’t
be cured; they
have arguments to
\, prove it. But when
they see it cured
,» right under their
face and eyes by
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery,
they admit that there’s something wrong
about their arguments and something
wonderful about the “Discovery.” It
isn’t miraculous. It won’t cure every
case ; but it cures a suprisingly large per—
centage of cases ; even when the patient
‘ is pretty far gone with a 'bad cough, and
bleeding from the lungs, and reduced al-
most to a shadow. Consumptzon 13 a
blood disease. The lungs want a fresh '
supply of pure rich blood and plenty of
it ; that is what the “Golden Medical DlS-
coVery” gives them. It IS abloo‘d-maker.
It gives the blood - making functions
power to produce a large quantity of the
nourishing red corpuscles which make
healthy life-giving blood. Thisstops the
wasting; drives out the impurities; heals
the ulceration and begins a rapid build-
ing-up process, of solid, substantial flesh
and vital energy. .
It isn’t only consumptives who need
the “ Discovery.” It cures every form of
chronic blood-disease and all serofulous
and eruptive affections.
MR. ISAAC E. DOWNS, of Spring Valley, Rock-
Iand County, N. Y., writes: “ For three years I
had suffered from that terrible d158358_. consump-
tion, and heart-disease. Before takm Doctor
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery I ha wasted
away to a skeleton: could not sleep nor rest, and
many times wished to die to be out of my misery.
Step by step. the signs and realities of returning
health slowly but surely developed themselves
while taking the “Discovery." Today I tip the
scales at one-hundred-and-eighty-seven, and am
well and strong. The ‘ Golden Medical DISCOV-
ery ’ has also cured my daughter of a very bad
ulcer located on the thigh. After trying almost
everlythin without success we purchased three
bott es oig your ‘ Discovery ' which healed it
perfectly." Yours truly,

FUL PHYSICAL STRENGTH.
His Courage and Endurance are Mail-vel-
. ons, and the Story of His Achievements
Reads Like a Fairy Tale—~Bis Simplicity
and Uliselfislmcss.
Dr.
explorer lizis'bcen compared with the
Vikings of old by the poets of his
"country, since his return; but this com-
parison has been made long ago by his
countrymen. Indeed, the" sight of the
man, writes the correspondentof the
Buffalo “Express,” even to Oife who
knows nothing of the extraordinary
feats of endurance and courage which
he has performed, is enough to remind
one of the old Norse heroes, who in-
fuscdvinto the Anglo-Saxon race those
qualities of courage and endurance
which have made the EugliSh—speak-
ing people what it‘ is. the predominant
race of the world. He is a man of ex—
traordinary strength, and as to this
_ there are a hundred stories current. .5
He has heard of the London'pickt
pocket who. having attempted ‘to
snatch Dr. Nanscn's watch, was grip-
ped by the young Norwegian, and held
fast with one hand in a grip so power-
ful that, as Mr. Bain has related, “his
wrist was nearly crushed and he Said
that he would rather go to jail for a
month than let that gentleman get hold
of him again.” At Tromso at the Feast
of “'clcomc. which he was proposing
Captain Svcrdrup’s health, he sudden-
ly lifted his shipmate up and hold him
aloft with one arm, so that everybody
in the crowded hall could get a sight
of the comrade to whom he admits so
great an obligation. ‘
Since his return to Norway, he. has
never ceased to put forward, what- so
many of his admirers have appeared to
forget, that to his brave companions
of the From, an equal share of his hon-
or is due. He has often complained
that the rewards allotted to them are
inadequate as compared to those which
he has received. He will not wear his
Great Cross of the Order of St. Olaf,
because his crew only received a pal-
try silver medal apiece. “It might at
least have been gold,” he says, and a1-
‘ though he is a poor man, for every
kroner he possessed had been invested
in this enterprise, he found means to
supplement with a large sum of money
recompenscs allowed them by a Gov-
ernment which has not distinguished
itself by liberality.
There was never shown greater mod-
esty in greater triumph. I-Iis attitude
is always a deprecating one; the sim-
plicity of his dress has even been com-
mented upon by malevolent and jeal-
ous observers, .as an aifectation.
Those who know him, have talked to
him. have seen him in his simple home,
see here only another Sign of what next
to his courage is the most salient trait
in his character.
Johanscn, his companion on the ice
does, has described in conversation one
of the last of these acts of heroism.
‘fI was ahead of Nansen, who was out
of sight,” he said, “when a huge Po-
lar bear got on to me and knocked me
down with a blow of his paw. ‘Nansen,’
I cried, ‘if you don’t shoot this second
I’m done for.’ The instant after I
heard the crack of his rifle and the
bear went over.” He added, “the blow
did me more good than harm, for it
He tells this story as a proof of the
alertness and promptitude and nerve
of his leader. Nansen: tells It, too, but,
as is his way, to sliow what a fine,
cool—headed companion he had/vin Jo»
hansen. _ '
“There is not a more courageous.
level-headed fellow in the world than
this giant by my side. You ought to
have heard the tone in which he said
“Nansen, if you don’t shOot at. once,’
just as though he were asking me the
time of day.” Here, as on every occa-
sion, one finds Nansen deprecating
credit to- himself in favor of another.
One may allude in this connection to
the attitude he has all along main-
tained toward the scheme of Andree.
whom many have described as his ri-
tercst, of hope for his success, com-
bined with the opinion that the result
to be expected was not a great one.
training has stood him in his life, has
been proved a hundred times over
since he first began his adventurous
life. He has carried human endurance
beyond any knOWn limits. His book
on his life in crossing Greenland reads
like a fairy story, or would so read,
had we not every proof of its entire
veracity. The story of his life after
he left the From will read still more
strongly. There were days and days
of absolute starvation. There were
days and nights when neither he nor
his companio’us could crawl into their
sleeping-sacks. \Vhen food was to be
’had it was no Christian diet‘and wa-
Eter was a luxury. Already in Green-
land he had shown what a man can do
in straits. and who has forgotten his
accounts of the dish ~of raw horse-
ment which turned the stomachs of the
Lapps, who acompanied him, or of the
cooker. which served for all purposes,
and which was licked Clean by the
tongue of Balto. One commends these
accounts of endurance and privation
disregarded and overcome to the gen-
l'lcmcn who write about the degenera-
tion of the human race to the pessi«‘
.mis's who. curiously enough, look to
this wry Norway for the light. ‘
