DEAR GAzs'r'rnz—The question of an extra session is still far from being de- cided in the minds of eminent statesmen. Many congressmen Seem to think it in. evitable, while others are quite as positive that no extra session will be convened. If all the regular annual appropriation bills are passed it would seem most prob- able that the incoming administration would prefer to avoid the embarassments and responsibilities sure to attend upon 9. called session. ' THE CABINET. Our “friends the enemy” are still per- plexing their virtuous souls about Presi- dent Harrison’s cabinet, while republicans seem willing to wait just six weeks from to—day and see who the distinguished friends of the government and the repub- lican party are to be. run TARIFF. The Senate has spent much time and pains in formulating a just, wise and equitable tariff bill. In doing this they have had the solid and bitter opposition of every democrat with the single exception of independent “Joe” Brown, of Georgia, who, to his praise be it said, has constant- ly broken from his party on every item voted upon, wherein his own honest judgment forced him to the conclusion that the country was to be benefitted by the changes proposed. While the debate was at its height ex—Rebcl Postmaster- General Reagan, of Texas, arose and quoted a speech, strongly supporting his free-trade views, which he said was delivered by the great tariff advocate, Henry Clay, of Kentucky. Senator Teller instantly asked the date of that speech, and the Texan gave it promptly, when Mr. Teller again asked Reagan if he didn’t know that Henry Clay had been dead six years at the time given, and moreover that he was palming off a speech by Clement Clay, of Alabama, a bot-headed free—trader and secessionist, as having been made by Henry Clay? This unexpected and al- most cruel sweeping away of all the gouty old Texan’s underpinning so nonplussed him that the only way he could wriggle out of his mortifying dilemma was to arraign Senator Teller for using the offen- sive words, “palm off,” and he desired the Colorado senator to withdraw the same. Mr. Teller promptly, lint courte- ously, replied that inasmuch as the Texas senator had charged the republicans of that body with being willing to violate the constitution and their oaths to support the same, he did not feel called upon to withdraw his words until the senator from Texas had set the example by his with- drawing his unwarranted accusation. The coloquy produced quite a ripple of interest and merriment to break the dull monotony of the dry tariff debate, but it had the effect of inducing Reagan to go to the reporters and request thathis offensive and untrue remarks be eliminated. Sena- tor Teller, learning of this, also ordered the official scribes to cut off his words “palm off,” so offensive to the gouty old Texan, and so the “much ado” ended. A vote on the senate bill was agreed upon to be taken to-morrow. This means, probably, an end of the debate, but the bill may not pass the Senate as a whole for weeks to come, and it is 3ertain that it will not pass the House at the present session. Senator Plumb has introduced a bill for the creation of a tariff commission whose duty it'shall be to carefully con- sider every item of our tariff laws; take testimony on points at issue, and to de— termine what would be most just to all sections and parties, and to present all such facts and the commission’s conclu- sions based thereon to Congress for its action. The project is endorsed by many congressmen as promising the easiest and best way of formulating a satisfactory tarifl law. IN THE HOUSE. The territorial bill absorbed the time and attention of the House nearly all of last week. It was a cunning game of ‘fence” on the part of the democrats, so they should be credited with not desiring to keep out those territories now knock— ing at the doors of the Union to be ad- mitted to the sisterhood of states, and at the same time that the republican party should gain no advantages from such admissions. One good brother from Florida startled his democratic colleagues by his want of party prudence, when -he got the floor, by shouting out at the top . of his lungs that he didn’t believe in ad— mitting Dakota and keeping out, Utah. Utah would go democratic every time, and, as the democrats had the majority in the House, they should look out for their party‘s advantage. Of course this explosion brought down the House, and made the pandemonium, which had reigned there for over a week, all the more intense. THE morass. There was a meeting held here last week of the various Indian commissioners and agents, who have the care and ameli- oration of the Indians in charge. Rev Dr. Childs was one of the most interesting and instructive speakers. He spent most of last summer, under appointment of the President, as an agent of the government for the purpose of trying to fix up a treaty with the Utes, located in Southern Colorado, for their transfer to a more desirable reservation. Mrs. Childs ac- companied her husband, and both had a novel and enjoyable experience, resulting in gaining much interesting information concerning these aborigines. Tile Durango (Col.) Herald gives many items concerning the visit of Dr. Childs’ party, some of which will be of sufficient interest to Norwalk readers to justify us in copying them : On August 1, the Commissioners made their first visit to Ignacio, the Southern Ute Agency. The Indians received the commissioners with disfavor. They looked upon them as persons who had come for the purpose of robbing them of their reservation. One old squaw felt so bad when they arrived at the agency that tears rolled down her cheeks while she gave vent to her anguish by saying: “There are the men wlio have come to rob and drive us away from our cherished lands.” The chiefs and bucks were stubborn. They absolutely refused to confer with tllc commissioners until some $1,200, known as 11 gratuity fund, which the Indians claimed had been due for nearly a year, was paid them. The commissioners found that the money referred to had been due for some time, and before at- tempting to treat with them telegraphed to Washington and secured the money. During the next two months a series of four councils were held. At each council the Utes took decided grounds against going. They declared there was no land as good as their present reservation, and no argument could persuade them differ- ently... With this was the strong influ» cnce exerted by certain cattle combinations and cattiemen~or rather the influence of their money—who wanted them to remain so their cattle could graze on their rich lands. On the 10th of October the com- missioners left Durango for Southern Utah with an escort of soldiers. The party was composed as follows : Dr. and Mrs. Childs, Judge Smith and Colonel Weaver—-the commissioners-Lieutenant Stevens, five soldiers and nine Indians, three from each of the three bands belong— ing to the Southern Ute tribe, the Cupolas, Wimminucbes and Moacbes, and Timothy J. McClure, the interpreter. The first two or three days of the jour— ney was without incident, but the calm was broken before the Utah line was reached. When the Dolores river was reached the Indians called a halt. Utah was reached on October 16. For two days the weather was bad—raining most of the time. Another kick went up from the red men; they declared that the “Great Spirit” was against them. The commissioners spent fourteen days in looking over the territory, including the Blue mountain district, camping out in tentsduririgthe time. The Indians did not make a lengthy stay, however, after spending a few days looking over the country they said they were satisfied With the land, that it was just as good as the present reservation, and were Willing to move. The commissioners were happy. Their work and perseverance had brought success when such aglorious resultlookrd extremely doubtful when they set foot on the reservation a little more than three months previous. Preparations were then actively started for the grand Ute barbe— cue. Monday was the regular day for the semi—annual disbursement of annuity goods. This coupled with the fact that the commissioners would give the Utes a barbecue dinner brought in and kept a large portion of the tribe at the agency all day. It was deemed best to turn the beef over to the Utes and let them do the cooking. Plenty of bread and crackers were furnished them, and a genuine feast was enjoyed by the dusky tribe. The main interest centered in the dancing. It would take the imagination of Rider Haggard or Jules Verne to picture or describe the manuevers of the Indians when indulging in their favorite amuse- ment. The dog and festal dances were gone through with. These dances do'not materially differ from the regular war dance, except that the Indians did not go through the manuevers with guns and knives in their hands. Under the head of “notes” the Herald goes on to say: The amount of “barbecue an Indian can stow away” is simply wonderful. Only two Indians out of the entire lot were able to sign the treaty by writing their names. When the Utes are removed one million acres of land will be restored to the public domain. Mavarico, one of the Indiaps implicated in the Meeker massacre, was a conspicu- ous figure among the Indians. Although the ground was frozen with occasional patches of snow,most of the Indians danced with bare feet. By the removal of the Utes the Herald will not lose many subscribers. The Indian has little use for a newspaper. During the first two months of the commissioners’ stay at Ignacio, their lives were threatened twice by the Indians who were determined not to leave. But no white feathers were shown, which probably accounts for the splendid suc. cess attained. By the removal of the Utes there will be thrown open to settlement over 300,000 acres of the finest farming land in Colora- do. This will provide 1,875 farmers with 160 acres of land each, and have 700,000 acres of land left for grazing and other purposes. . Ignacio, chief of the Southern Utes, is a man who has the respect and admiration of his tribe. In every sense he. is regarded as being very strictly opposed to intem—~ perauce, and when any member of the tribe is caught under the influence of liquor he is usually severely punished. The costumes of some of the Indian ladies who indulged in the dance were quite charming. Laughing Water was elaborately attired in a beautiful coat of crushed strawberry paint and a “G” string. Miss Chainway was dressed a in nude, with two eagle fathers and the in— evitable “G” sti'ing,while Mrs.Doughface’s costume combined the various colors of the rainbow artistically displayed over the body,afew feathers and the usual bar- barian dress. The most startling item is the last paragraph and the suggestion which it carries, and which almost takes our breath away, that our,staid and almost severe clerical friend, Rev. Dr. Childs, should have been a “lcoker on” while these wild and untutored children of the plain Were thus desporting themselves. But perish any thought of adverse criticism, for bad it not been presidential election year your correspondent would have "been there, too." PERSONALS. Mr. and Mrs. F. Hollistcr, of Bridge- port, are here at the new “Maltby” for a week’s visit. Congressman Vance has gone home to Connecticut. The Connecticut Republican Associa- tion request any from our state, who expect to attend the inauguration and have not secured rooms, to write to the secretary of that association that accomo- dations may be secured. Mr. and Mrs. Levi P. Morton are in town. Mr. Blaine is now, as of old, the one bright, particular social star, who is in- vited to about every feast and reception going. Senator Platt reported to the Senate Thursday the bill introduced by ex-Seuaior and President—elect Harrison for the pro— tection of innocent users of patented articles. George R.

Mr. Edward Atkinson, of Boston, will describe in the February Century the latest American methods of inex pensive “Slow Burning Construction" as a branch of fire insurance, suggesting the construc- tion of buildings of brick, stone or iron, with wood interiors, or even of wood alone, in such a way as to greatly decrease the fire losses. Mr. Atkinson says: “There are even now more cities than one in which a great confiagralidu exceeding that of either Boston or Chicago awaits but the accident of a spark and a favorable wind.” The publishers of Good House/leaping (Clark W. Bryan & Co., of Springfield, Mass), announce a new series of papers on “Home Furnishing and Decoration,” to begin in No. 98, February 2.

In California aman borrowed a squirrel dog of a friend and went gunning. The dog led him in various directions until he was tired out and sat down to rest. He launched many anathemas at the animal as a brute that knew nothing about the busines for which he was recommended. The dog, how- ever, frisked aboutall the same. Presently he began digging in the ground in a. very en- thusiastic manner. The disgusted hunter paid very little attention to this new dodge until he saw the dog poking some dark object about with his nose. Going to the spot the hunter found that the dog had unearthed an old leather purse. This looked like game at last. Taking the purse from the dog the hunter found that it contained 8800 in gold and $1 insilver. On counting out the find the hunter concluded that the d was not such a. “fool critter” after all.— ew York Deidgram. Blocking Fire Escapes. . “Why don’t people who live in flat houses keep their household goods of! the fire as- capes?” saida fireman to the writer recently. “They know it is against the law, for every now and then somebody is fined for it; and they must know how dangerous it; is in case offlre. I havo known people deliber- ately cover up the g in the floor of the fire escape with boards, so that their children might playon the balcony in safety, or so that the washer-woman might hang out the clothes without getting nervous; seeming to care nothing that by so doing all seems from one story to another was wholly cut'ofl. This seems to be a favorite place, too, for the fam- ily refrigerator, a neat little thing to remove inn hurry in case of astampedefromthe flames. I have seen so muchstuflpiled up there that the shutters could not actually be opened wide enough to let a child pas through, let alone a woman half «used with I fear. The carelessness of tenants down town, too, about fire is remarkable. They seem to think thatif they have their goods insured thatisallthat is necessary.

She has an annuity of $200,000. When William H. Vanderbilt (lied he left a fortune, in round numbers, of $200,000,000. It is remarkable how it has increased in the three years that have elapsed since his death. Old Commodore Vanderbilt left his grandson Cornelius $5,000,000, and his other three grandsons $2,000,000 each. William K. oper- ated extensively in the stock market five years ago, and, it was generally understood at the time, lost his entire fortune, which he had increased to $5,000,000. He was reported to have received an allowance of $70,000 a. year from his father for his personal expenses thereafter and until the death of the latter. About the time of or shortly before the ter- mination of William K35 disastrous expe- rience in Wall street, Cornelius began specu- lating,and was reported to have lost about; $3,000,000 of his fortune, 'whiCh" had, however, grown to $8,000,000. The fortunes of Fred- erick and George Vanderbilt had also appre- ciated in value, though not to the same extent as the others. Frederiek- had been very suc- cessful in stock speculations and George had made highly remunerative investments under the direction of his father. Altogether, there was in the family, outside of William H. Vanderbilt‘s personal fortune, $12,000,000. Deducting that amount, the wealth of Will- iam H. Vanderbht has increased $62,000,000 since his death—New York World. . , MARRIED. In Wilton, at the resrdence of the bride's mother January 15th, I839, Wm. Farweil to Miss Kate J. . Raymond, by Rev.

INCREASE YOUR PENSION. Many pensroners borne on 1110 rolls are entitled to a inm-n higher rule of pension iiiaii they now receive. In :I great rnujnriiy of cases In which pension was grained for disease, the pensioner is entitled to an increase of rule, and 111 most cases where it was granted for wounds or injuries the disability increases each year. As time passes the disability of all classes naturally increases. Many were at first rated too low, and it often occurs that pensioners are unjustly or erroneously re- duced by exaiiiiuing surgeons. A pensioner is entitled to increase on a disability not set forth in his original declaration. The pension laws are Inore liberal than formerly, and better rating can be had for many disabilities.
