    rTSED THE SENATE.
or
Tot.
T1lrr resolution A dortd
r t to .
Vf'u.-iliinKl.-Mi, Jan. 89. After a de
! Hf, oniivmt'.'d at all times and occa
sionally acrimonious, which occupied
the greater part of the week, the sen
ate, thi afternoon, by a decisivo vote
of 47 to 153, passed the Taller ooncnr
rei.t resolution. The resolution is a
practical reaffirmation of that of Stan-
ley Matthews, passed in 1878. and u at
. follown: -
"That all the bonds of the United
States, issued or authorized to be issued
under the said acts of congress herein
before recited, are payable, principal
.... and interest, at the option of the gov
eminent of the United States, in silver
dollars of the coinage of the United
States, containing 41 grains each of
standard silver, and that to restore to
its coinage such silver coins as a legal
tender in payment of said bonds, prin
cipal and interest, is not in violation
of the pnblio faith nor in derogation of
the rights of the pnblio creditors."
All efforts to amend the resolution
were voted down by majorities ranging
from 5 to 29, Lodge's gold-standard
substitute being defeated by the latter
majority. The vote on the Lodge
- amendment was: Ayes, 24; noes, 53.
The events of the day leading up to
the final vote were foil of interest and
importance. It was a field day for the
orators of the senate, not less than 25
senators embracing the opportunity to j
apeak upon the subject under discus
sion. The publio interest in the de
bate was attested by the attendance in
the galleries, which were crowded
throughout the day, and that it was
important was evidenced by the state
ments of several of the speakers that
the discussion was but the preliminary
alignment of the great political parties
for the contest of 1900.
From 10 o'clock this morning until
7 this evening, the contest was con
tinued. When voting was begun, it
was evident that party lines were be
ing broken on both Bides of the cham
ber, but it was on the substitute offer
ed by Lodge that the biggest break
occurred. On the Republican side,
Allison and Burrows did not answer
to their names on that roll call and
many Republican voted directly
against it.
Upon the final passage of the resolu
tion, some Republicans who supported
McKinley and the St. Louis platform
in 1896, like Carter, Chandler, Clark,
Pritcbard, Bhoup, Warren and Wol
cott, voted for the resolution because,
as Woloott announced, they did not
believe the resolution committed those
who supported it to the free and unlim
ited ooinage of silver. ,
WEEKLY MARKET LETTER.
The bill to pay the book publishing
company of the Methodist Episcopal
church, South, $388,006 for damages
sustained by that corporation during
the war, after encountering an' "obstin
ate filibuster, which staved off a vote
on two'previous private bill days, was
piloted to its passage in the house to
day by Cooper, who was in charge of
the measure. The friends of the
measure proved themselves in an over
whelming majority and the opposition
today, finding it could hold out no
longer, reluctantly yielded. The vote
was 188-67.
"rad Condition in tha landing Cities
r the World.
wheat traders hint week struggled
with all kinds of foreign news, but the
market remained iit the same old rut,
only that it became narrower. Com
mission men who have recently travel
ed all through the West and Northwest
say that speculation everywhere is
light. The farmers have paid off their
mortgages with the monev received
from their crops, and the $200,000,000
extra that Leitor helped them to get
by advancing grain values has brought
about a readjustment of affair in the
West. ' .
During the early days of last week
the foreign news was bearing, prices in
Liverpool and on the continent declin
ing steadily under the pressure of Ar
gentine offerings. Friday there was a
change in sentiment abroad, cables gen
erally reporting reduced Argentine
offerings and advanced prices. , . An
estimate has been made that Argentina
will only have 18,000,000 bushels to
ship to the United Kingdom; 7,000,000
bushels of its surplus will go to Brazil,
and the balance to other countries.
This estimate does not make the sur
plus over 25,000,000 bushels. Thei
are other good estimates of 48,000,000
bushels. Should Argentina have 48,-
uuv.uuu to export, it will make a ma
terial difference in prices, provided the
present crop prospects are everywhere
maintained. In case it is only 35,000,
000 bushels there will be less wheat to
come in contact with arrivals from
California and depress the foreign mar
kets. Speculators are looking to the
foreign situation to lead the bull move
ment. They want to see exports con
tinue heavy, and the foreign buying
good. The latter has not been up to
expectations of late, but there is every
prospect of its continuing good through
out January. One drawback to active
cash transactions at the seaboard is the
steady advanoe in cash premiums over
May.
Speculators who are very friendly to
the bull side take a different view of
the situation. They are inclined to
ignore the foreign conditions as the
real leader, and are looking to the
Northwest. They believe that stocks
in millers' hands in Minnesota and
the Dakotaa are the lightest in years.
farmers' deliveries are small and coun
try elevators looks are not over 5,000,000
bushels. Bulls have predicted a falling
off in arrivals there since December 1
but the reduction has not been fully
realized, the receipts exceeding last
year's.
GOLD BY THfc. TON.
That's ilia Way TUey Speak r It ta
Mammon City.
In a persona! letter, received in Port
land from u ill mm J. Jones, press cor-
respondent in Dawson City, lie says.
among other things: . -
"The stories of the great yield of
gold published in the United Slates
have not been exaggerated in the least,
The mind is unable to grasp the real
situation, and appreciate the sights that
are so common here to evory-day life.
In Dawson City today, ready for ship
ment, are between four and five tons
of gold. Can you realise that such a
thing is possible, 'or at all probable?
Just consider, too, that all that is
about one-third of the year's output.
Men handle gold as you would a plug
of tobacco. At the saloon bars, the
stores, restaurants or other places of
business, the mines throw up their
saoks, and casually turn their backs,
never stopping to see tney are ac
corded proper weight. Would you
think of handing your purse over to a
Portland barkeeper and allowing him
to take out the change?
"In many of the cabins along tho
gulches where I have visited I have
seen shelves loaded down with all
kinds of cans filled with gold. In one
cabin on Eldorado creek there are five
coal-oil cans full of the yellow motal,
weighing nearly 1,200 pounds.
The Canadians are exercising the
laws leniently, and to the satisfaction
I of the Americans, and generally speak
ing, ine camp is orueny ana very
quiet, considering tho vast amount of
money in circulation, and the number
of hard characters m the oountry."

THE CORONA WRECKED.
Alaska-Bound Steamer Went Down Neu
Month of Skeena River.
Seattle, Wash., Jan. 29. A special
to the Times from Victoria says that
news has been received there that the
steamship Corona, which left Seattle
with 225 passengers January 20 for
Southeastern Alaska ports, had been
wrecked near Lewis island, at the
. mouth of the Skeena river. Her pas
sengers were all safely landed on Ken
nedy island. Every pound of freight
and baggage is lost.
The Corona was a screw propeller,
220 feet long, 85 feet beam, and 9 feet
6 inches hold. She was built in Phila
delphia in 1888, and has been running
on the coast ever since. She is well
known in Southern California, having
been on the run there between San
Francisco and Suan Diego for some
years. She was a 15-knot boat, and
was fitted with all the modern appli
ances. ,
This was to have been the last trip
of the Corona, as she was to have been
transferred to the Southern California
division on her return.
i Particulars of the Wreck.
Naoaimo, B. C, Jan. 29. The
steamer Danube arrived at Departure
bay late this evening, bringing down
news of the wreck of the steamer
Corona. The Corona struck a rock near
the mouth of the Skeena river and 4
once commenced to sis k. Lifeboats
were lowered, and the passengers were
conveyed to the beach of Kennedy
island. The steamer Al-Ki went to the
rescue. She is now on the way south
with the unfortunate goldseekers.
The Corona struck the rock bow-on
and is lying with her stern submerged.
It is feared she will prove a total
wreck, and the whole of her cargo will
be lost. :' j
It is also reported that .the Union
Steamship Company's steamer Coquit
lnm was wrecked on the Skeena river.
Particulars of this wreck were not ob
tained from the passengers of the
Danube.

J, Kay, of San Francisco, who took a
cargo ol lumber to biagway on the
Noyo, says so great is the demand for
lumber that they ean hardly wait until
it is unloaded. Mr. Kav says that but
small per cent of the hundreds of
people arriving at Dyea and Skagway,
intent on pushing on to Dawson, have
any conception of the difficulties be
fore them. He predicts that conges
tion on the trails will be greater than
last season.
A company, of which J. J. McKay,
the Yukon freighter and tbe man who
made the quickest trip ever made from
Dawson to Dyea during the winter, is
tbe head, has been organized at Tacoma
to run an express between that city and
Dawson. The company will operate
steamers on the lakes, and from the
White Horse rapids to Dawson, using
dog and horse trains in packing from
Dyea. It is estimated that the trip
from Tacoma to Dawson will be made
in 18 days in tbe summer and 25 days
in the winter. The company will at
tempt to secure mail contracts. At
present mail is scattered all along the
trail, and McKay asserts that he is tbe
only man who ever succeeded in rie-
ivering mail on the Yukon during the
winter.
Collector of Customs J. W. Ivey is
receiving a good deal of praiee for his
vigorous policy in enforcing the laws
regrading the liquor traffic. As long
as the laws are in effect they will be
enforced. His vigilance in seizing
contraband stuff is attracting general
attention. The liquor men are growl
ing because he shipped away 20 tons
of the stuff on tbe Elder. The new ad
ministration is making warm times in
the North, and, as a natural result, the
collector is cordially disliked by the
Juneau smuggling ring.

to come out to procure a supply of fish

trail with his throat cut from ear to

Black and blue colors are not subject to

They hold their own and will not wash out.
They are pretty solid colors, and but for the
misery of wearing them, might become

or blue, or hath, ought to have immediate
attention, tor under tliem timv be a nerve

from its tender soreness but the contused
