Chairman Gannon Has Announced
His Sub-Committees.
CALLED TO MEET NOV. 27
Work on the Appropriations to Be
Begun at Once and a Short Ses-
sion Anticipated — Possible Ad-
journment by May 1.
Washington, Nov. 13. — Chairman

Committee, intends to begin preparing
tor the appropriation bills at the ear-
liest possible date. He has announced

sembling of CongI ess.
As the House is fully organized by
the appointment of all the standing
committees, it will be expected to gel.

sembles on Dec. 3. Ordinarily it re-
quires a month to organize, but this
year at least one of the legular appio
priation bills} and probably two, will

recess. Most of the members who have
already arrived express the opinion

shortest regular “long session” of Con-

sion lasts from six to ten months. Mr.
Hopkins, of Illinois, predicts that Con-
gress will have Completed its work and

Chances of 3. Monetary Bill.
VVa'shington, Nov. 13,—Representa-
tive Grosvenor, of Ohio, is very doubt-
ful about there being any financial leg-
islation at the approaching session of
Congress.
“I presume," he said “that there will
be some agitation of a currency meas‘
ure, but action on the subject is very
uncertain. Everybody knows that there
is very little chance of an agreement
among the members of the Banking
and Currency Committee on any finan-
cial measure, and it will be next to im-
possible to make a party question oi
such a measure in the House. Some
proposition might be made which the
Republicans would stand for, but there
is no probability of a general agree-
ment on any of the broad schemes that
have been suggested.”
“You do not‘ think that the Repub-
licans would unite on a proposition for
the retirement of the greenbacks?”
“Certainly not. I donot believe that
the President will recommend such a
thing. I‘have not talked with him on
the subject, but I have no idea that he
would make such a recommendation.”
Speaking of Hawaii, Mr. Grosvenor
said that he thought there would be no
difficulty in the way of the ratification
of the annexation treaty: He thought
that it would be acted upon favorably
very soon after Congress met.
TRAIN HELD UP AND LOOTED.
Train Robbery Near Independence,
and a Big Loss Feared.
Kansas City, Nov. 13.-—The Missouri
Pacific Express, or train 8, which left
here at 9 o’clock last evening and was
due in St. Louis at 7.10 o’clock this
morning, was held up east of Independ-
ence at about 10 p. m. by four bandits
and plundered.
A special engine with officers left here
at midnight for the scene of the rob-
bery. It is believed that the bandits
m'ade a. big haul, as it is'known that
the express car carried considerable
treasure. ~VVhether the robbers blew
open the safe or not cannot be learned
at this writing.
The Priest \Vasn-‘t Murdered.
Philadelphia, Nov. 13.—The Coroner’s
jury has rendered a verdict in the case
of the Rev. H. J. McPake, the young
priest who was found dead 011 ‘Wednes—
day morning in an areaway in the rear
of St. Paul’s Academy, this city. The
verdict of the jury is that death was
due to natural causes. The verdict was
in accordance with the finding of the
Coroner’s physician,‘ who said that
death was due to uraemia.
Archbishop Ryan authorized a state-
ment last night that me authorities oi
the Roman Catholic Church were sat-
isfied that Father McPake died from a
sudden natural cause, and that there
was no thought of. pursuing an investi—
gation cf the case further on the theory
that he was murdered.
$5,000,000 Klondike Syndicate.
Philadelphia, Nov. 13.—A syndicate
has been formed here to seek riches in
the Klondike region, with a,c‘apitaliza-
tion of $5,000,000, with John Lowber
Welsh at its head, and includes among
its incorpo-rators George C. Thomas,
Edward T. Stotesbury, Thomas Mc-
Kean, Beauver Borie, Caleb F. Fox
and other prominent Philadelphians.
The company has been organized un-
der the laws of New Jersey, and is to
be .known as the Reliance Mining and
Trading Company of Alaska. This
company is in no way identified with
the States Steamship Company, formed
a few days ago by Philadelphians to
operate vessels from San Francisco to
Alaska.
The Circus on the Billow.
New York, Nov. 13.——Flying an Amer-
ican flag at her peak, with 250 persons
waving 250 bright new American flags,
with two bands playing “Hail Colum-
bia” and “America," and with all '01
the animals in the “Greatest Show on
Earth” chanting a. bedlamite chorus of
keen regret, the steamship Massachu-
setts, of the Atlantic Transport line.
started last night for London.
It has been charged that the Bar-
num—Bailey show will appear in ling
land as an English affair. .-The Ameri-
can portion of last night's display wa'v'
made to show"that the undertakin;
was wholly and distinctly American.
DUN’S WEEKLY REVIEW.
Uooler Weather Helps Trade some.
General Activity Not Apparent.
New York, Nov. 13. —-—Coider and more
stormy weather, so long needed to ac-
celerate distribution of Winter goods,
has materially helped in some qua1ters,
and the resulting improvement in re-
tail trade is mentioned in nearly every
Northern dispatch this week, so that
orders to fill stocks have been encour-
"aging, and in some branches the mul-
titude of demands for immediate de-
livery show that the distribution to
consumers has already gone much be-
yond the expectations of dealers. But
this is not yet the general rule, and
with many complaints of delayed trade
from other quarters there still remains
the extensive shrinkage caused by
fever and quarantines at the South. It
is, therefore, the more surprising that
the volume of all payments through
clearing houses continues about as
large as in 1892, and 16.7 per cent. larg-
er than last year. Railroad earnings
also nearly equal those of 1892 for the
first week of November, and half the
mileage in the United States shows
earnings in October of $5 0, 354, 496, or 8.1‘.
per cent. la1 ger than last ye',ar and 2.1
per cent. larger than 1892. SpeculatiVe
markets feel disappointment because
prices do not Ilse farther and fastei
and it is fortunate for producers and
dealers that the experience of some
p‘ast years in that respect has not been
repeated. There is nothing to cause
general reaction, the purchasing power-
of the people is gradually increasing,
and after the lull which follows exten-
sive replenishment of stocks, trade
should give ample evidence of. that_i_n-
crease.
The boot and $1189 manufacture sun
passes all records in shipments from
the East in November, which have been
27 per cent. larger than in 1892, and the
total for the year is not 1 per cent, be-
low the greatest ever known.
Woolen mills generally have orders
for three months ahead, and are not
seeking further engagements. ‘Large
sales of speculative lots of wool at
prices not Stated suggest that it may
be lower before the mills need further
orders: "
Wheat dropped over 2 cents, but
has since risen as much, with heavy
buying for export. Western receipts
continue heavy, in two weeks 14,028,007
bushels, against 10,581,192 last year,
while Atlantic exports, flour included,
have been 6,562,025 bushels, against 3,-
921,231 last year. An English authority
reckons the world’s yield at 161,000,000
bushels less than last year, which
would mean a market for all this coun—
try has to spare. Corn exports are
again larger than last year, and the
price has risen 1% cents.
Failures for the first week in Novem-
ber were $3, 009, 637, against $2, 306, 351
last year; manufacturing $1,408,056,
against $963,203, and trading $1,462,856,
against $1,273,108 last year. Failures for
the week have been 291 in the United
States, against 276 last year, and twen-
ty-t‘our in Canada, against forty-six
ast year.
TRADE WiTi—i CANADA.
Negotiations for a Reciprbcity
Treaty to Be Begun.
Washington, Nov. 13.——Definite prep-
arations have been made for negotia-
ting a reciprocity treaty between the
United States and Canada. Meetings
have been arranged between.I—I011. John
W. Kasson and Sir Wilfrid Laurier, the
Canadian Premier,
ies, Minister of Marine. This is the re-
sult of the long conference held yester-
day between Secretary Sherman and
Sir Wilfrid.
The questions of border immmigra;
tion, north Atlantic fisheries, lake fish-
eries and all other subjects affecting
me two countries will be taken up soon.
The meeting with Mr. Kasson, how-
ever, will be confined to reciprocity. It
is not expected that the reciprocity it-
self can be matured during the present
visit of the Canadian officials, the de—
sire being to arrive at some common
understanding and perfect details later.
The dinner at the White House
Thursday night assisted towards a
friendly setttlement of pending ques-
tions. At its conclusion the guests ac-
companied the President and his Cabi-
net advisers to the Blue Room, where
an informal and personal exchange of
views occurred. The general sentiment
prevailed that the present time was op-
portune for more cordial intercourse
between this country and Canada. The
announcement of the meeting with Mr.
Kasson followed this morning.
It\ is undelstood that the Canadian
officials believe the me .1kets of the
United States and Canada are so
closely connected geographically t'at
it is essential that the countries look to
each other, rather than to markets
thousands of miles distant and difficult
of access. .
Buying Up Coal Mines.
Pittsburg, Nov. 13.——It begins to look
as if the coal operato1r s, tired of con-
tention with one anoth. '—- , V’Ele encour-
aging overtures from a syndicate
which is to assume control as
soon as the various properties
can be assessed and turned over
to it. Following the purchase of
the Waverly mines from Robbins 8.:
Co. comes a report that Henry Floer-
schaim, who owns large mining inter-
ests on the Wheeling division of the
Baltimore & Ohio, is about to sell to
the same persons who made the former
purchase and to retire from business.
The principals in the transaction are
not yet knoWn, as the business is done
through brokers.
Won’t Serve Under Eckels.
Chicago, Nov. 13.—Directors Potter,
Rawson and Ware. of the Commercial
National Bank, have resigned because
of Comptroller Eckels’ appointment as
president. They will not serve under
him. The resignagon will take effect
on Jan. 1.
A majority of the Commercial Na-
tional’s directors wanted to get Eckles
because it would advertise the bank’s
business. The three directors are op-
posed to this and decline to serve under
Mr. Eckles.
Reward for a Liquor Constable.
Columbia, S. 0., Nov. 14.-—Gov. El-
ierbe last night offered a. reward of $50
for the capture of Chief Constable W.
H. Newbold, who shot down the Rev.
J. H. Turner in Spartanburg on Tues—
day, supposing him to be 3. blockade
whisky dealer. The horse and buggy
by which the constable made his es-
cape from Spartanburg on advice of his
,lawyer,vwere returned to the livery sta-
bles yesterday by a. boy, but nothing
has been heard of the murderer.

D O {T YOURSLF.
You can tell just as well as a. phV si-
cian whether your kidneys are dis-
eased or healthy. The way to do' is to
take a. bottle 01 glass tumbler, and fill
it with urine. If there is a. sediment——
a powderlike substance—at the bottom
after standing a day and night, there
is something wrong with the kidneys.
Another sure sign of disease' 15 a desire
to urinate often, and still another sig 11
is pain in the back. If urine stains
linen. there IS no doubt that. the kid-
neys are afi'cct-ed.
Any and all diseases of the kidneys,
liver, bladder and of the minarv pas-
sages and constipation of the bOVV- e15
ale cured by Dr. David Kennedy’s
Favorite Remedy. There is no ques-
tion about its being the best and surest
medicine' 1n the world for such troubles.
It. quickly leliev es and 911188 inability
to hold urine, and people, young or old,
who take it are not compelled to get
up a number of times during the‘night.
For putting an end to that scalding
pain experienced in passing urine,
nothing is so good as Dr. David Ken-
nedv’s bFavmite Remedy. It corrects
the bad effects of whiskey and beer; is
pleasant to the taste, and does not
seem to be medicine at all. Diseases
of the kidneVs and bladder often re-
quire the use of instruments to push
back the sandv matter so the urine can
be avoided. 1. In such cases Favorite
RemedV should be taken without ful-
ther delay or the disease may p1 ove
fatal. It is sold for one dolla1 a. bottle
at all d1 no stores. It is well “‘01 th
mam times its price. '
