PETTIGREW IS WITHOUT SUPPORT Proteased. Debate on Cnrrency Bill Premised Simon's Bill for En- IsretBC the Portland Postofflce. "WASHINGTON, Jan. 3L Patriotic sen ators aa,ve determined to resent the utter ances and prevent the circulation, under United States frank and Indorsement by the United States government, of the trea sonable utterances of the Agulnaldlsts in the senate. The cantankerous Pettlgrew has gone further than any democrat in his abuse of the administration and sup port of the Filipinos. He has gone as far as Atkinson or any of the other anti expansionists. Indications are now that he ha6 received a check, and that the sen ate has decided to put a stop to the cir culation of the slanders -which he is try ing to force upon the country, under gov ernment frank. The righteous indigna tion of men like Lodge, Spooner, Sewell and Gallinger was aroused today, and een Teller, who was influenced to leave the republican party by Pettlgrew, and who followed him as far as he could, felt compelled to call a halt and announce that he was no longer in sympathy with the only other man in the senate calling him self a sliver republican. The assaults of these men told heavily on the South Da kota senator today, and he showed very plainly that he was a man without a party and without support. The men who de nounced Pettlgrew today are not afraid of the effect his speeches will have upon the politics of this country, as they believe that every time he talks he makes sup porters for the administration and votes for the republican party. But it is be cause the ignorant Filipinos are made to believe that they are receiving support in the United States senate that these ob jections are raised. Debate on Currency Bill. It is probable that from now on more attention will be given to the considera tion of the currency bill In the senate. The general belief that the bill will be entirely remodeled and practically made by the committee on conference between the houses has had the effect of holding off debate on the senate measure, because no one can tell exactly what the bill will be when it is finally agreed on. There is an intimation of quite a pro longed debate when the conferees report. There is considerable fault found witti the senate bill on the house side, and the senate conferees will have reason to modify their views when demands are made by the house. May "Withdraw Reciprocity Trentle. So earnest has become the opposition to the various reciprocity treaties which were negotiated under the Dlngley tariff law. that republicans are urging the presi dent to withdraw them in order to prevent their defeat by republican votes. The president and secretary of state are in earnest in support of the treaties, but may consent to have them postponed, owlns to the very vigorous oposltlon that Is be ing made. The attack by the woolgrowers has been the most significant, and It has united a large body of men, who were strong enough to secure the adoption of the present wool schedule in the Dlngley bill, and who will not consent to have it disturbed by the reduced rates provided In the Argentine treaty. Blnc&fcara Will Be Seated. The action of Governor Taylor, In Ken tucky, in withholding the certificate from Blackburn will not affect his admission to the senate. The prima facie election of Blackburn will settle his standing :n the senate, which will not go behind the returns to the extent of ascertaining the legality of the recent Kentucky legisla ture This was established some time ago, when the governor of Florida refused a certificate to Call. To Enlarge Portland Postofflce. Senator Simon today Introduced a bill appropriating $169,600 for enlarging1 the public building at Portland, now occupied by the postofflce and other government offices. When enlarged, this building is to be used exclusively for the postofflce and United States courts, the other officers moving to the new building. It Is Sena tor Simon's intention to have this bill made a part of the sundry civil appro priation bill, if there seems to bo no prospect of getting it through the house. Race Question In Cong-res. Not only Southern democrats, but South ern republicans now in power seem de sirous of keeping the race question stirred up, the democrats because it gives them control of the local officers, and congress men and the electoral vote for president, and the republicans because, with negro support, they can control federal positions as they do now. The men representing North Carolina in both house and senate hae taken occasion to inject the race is sue and Southern questions into the va rious debates, with the apparent purpose of egging on the democrats to denounce the colored man and to make the usual onslaught against negro domination. THE DAY IN THE HOUSE. Wide Bxtent of Debate on the Indian Bill. WASHINGTON, Jan. 31. Under the lati tude allowed m general debate upon appropriation bills, the Indian appro priation till la the house today was made the occasion for a discussion of a wide range of subtle questions. Our pol io in the Philippine Islands, the govern ment of Puerto Rico, the leasing of our arid lande. and election methods in the South, were In turn brought into the are na. The most interesting debate occurred oer the latter subject. A bill was passed for the payment of the salaries of certain retired officers of the marine corps. The house then went into committee of the whole for the con sideration of the Indian appropriation bill. Cooney (dem. Mo.) took occasion In the debate to deliver an argument against im perialism. Stephens (dem. Tex.) occupied half an hour in advocacy of his bill to lease the arid lands of the West, and use the pro ceeds for Irrigation purposes. i-eks (rep. Mich.), who visited Puerto Kico last summer, discussed the necessity of fixing the status of the people there at the earliest possible moment. Unney (rep. N. C.) deprecated criticism of the policy of the administration toward the Phulppines. "While the earth is drinking the warm bleed of American he rocs said he. "it Is our duty to stand j the flag af our country, and the cbm-mander-in-chlef of our armies. (Applause 01 the republican side.) Llnoey proceed ed directing his attention to elections and lynchinsjs in the South. The lack of free elections, he said, was the only infirmity of our governmental system. In exact pro portion as people were deprived of their vote, he said, the lynchings and assassi nations were prevalent. Since 11 there had Veen an average of 11 lynohlngs each ear ji the South. V hlte (rep. N. C). the only colored rep resentative la the house, said: "I have investigated the lyncMags in the South and find that lees than 16 per cent of them are due to the crime of rape. And I de sire to announce here that if it were not for the assaults of white men upon black women there would be lees of the other class ' Williams (dem Miss.) made a warm de fense of the acUon of certain Southern Ctfttt 10 difranchh4nE the Ifittorant and Illiterate. He declared these states were preventing the submergence of civilization. He stated upon his honor that since 1S95 no man had been defeated in office by force. He frankly avowed that Mississip pi had sought by her constitution to sup press the ignorant and illiterate, and the supreme court had sustained the consti tutionality of her constitution. In Mis sissippi, said iie, the law bad been violat ed by murder, arson and rape, but no man had ever been shot down because he wanted to work. Cochran (dem. Mo.) closed the day with a speech against the expansion policy of the administration. It was agreed to close the general debate at 4. o'clock tomorrow. The house at 4:50 P. M. adjourned. THE PLAGUE SITUATION. Heroic Efforts Taken at Honolulu to Check: the Disease. SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 3L The steam er Australia, seven days from Honolulu, arrived today and reports that up to the time of her departure, 41 deaths from LONDON TIMES MAP OF THAT plague had occurred, and there was a total of 52 cases. The Australia had on board 175 passengers, the largest number which ever came to this port on a single steamer from the Hawaiian irlands. In an effort to stamp out the plague, it was decided to burn one of the blocks in Chinatown. The fire was started, and It gained such headway that the fire depart ment could not control It. The flames spread rapidly from one block to another, and soon the whole Chinese quarter was destroyed. Hardly a house was left stand ing in the district. The Chinese and other residents of the district fled from their homes In terror, and were unable to save much of their effects. As a result of the destruction of the Chinese quarters, 70:0 people were rendered homeless, and they are now living In tents. . The fire destroyed 12 blocks, bounded by Kukul, Queen and Nunau streets. The most notable building burned was thf KaumakakpllI, a prominent landmark, and the most comfortable edifice of Its kind In Honolulu. It contained a large pipe organ, valued at $5000. The steamship Iroquois rendered valuable aid. She put out two lines of hose which saved the Honolulu Iron works. The Australia's passengers were taken off and placed In the quarantine station at Angel Island, where they will remain till tomorrow. According to advices from Honolulu, the transport Aztec, which left this port for HIlo, with 400 mules and horses, may not attempt to land her -cargo at Hllo. Light ers would have to be employed, as the wharf there cannot accommodate the Az tec. At present the weather conditions are such that the horses cannot be landed safely, and It is expected that the Aztec will have to return to Honolulu. There was a small riot at the detention camp at Honolulu the night of the 22d, owing to the refusal of the authorities to allow the Japanese to burn a lot of new lumber for fuel purposes, and because they were restrained from burning a new cottage In which one of their number had died of the plague. The arrival of the reserves ended the trouble, and a careful watch Is being kept, as the Japanese are exceedingly sullen and some have armed themselves with clubs. Affairs at Hilo have quieted, and no more trouble is expected. Brought hy the Senator. SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 3L The trans port Senator, Which has arrh ed here, left the transports Ben More and Ohio in Nagasaki. They are coming here. The Missouri left Nagasaki before the Sen ator, and is supposed to have headed for Honolulu on her way here with some 200 dead and a large number of 111 soldiers. It was reported that nine of the sick sol diers died on the Missouri before she left Nagasaki. The Senator brought the fol lowing officers: Thirteenth Infantry, Cap tain W. L. Laterman, First Lieutenant Pond, surgeon U. S. A.; First Lieutenant Fitzgerald, surgeon U. S. A.; Quartermas ter and Commissary Major Bretthani. Nearly all of the sick soldiers on board are now convalescent. Those who were de clared Insane on leaving Manila are the following: Hospital corps, Frank A. Alt geld, Milton E. Wallace; Fourth Infantry, Wm. Schwarzenberg; Thirteenth infantry, Eugene McKeever and Christopher D. Far rell; Sixteenth Infantry, James W. Thomp son and Frank L. Spear; Eighteenth In fantry, John Qulnn and John J. Malone; Twenty-first infantry. S. M. Lochfried, Ralph R. Blood. Bernard G. DIgnan and Andrew J. Daloff; Twenty-second In fantry, William A. Moore, Twenty-third infantry, William Hunstol; Twenty-sixth Infantry, Sergeant A. W. Anderson and Clint T. LIttlefleld. 0 Mnson's Boer Resolution. WASHINGTON. Jan. 3L The Mason resolution In the interest of the Boer re public received attention at the hands of the senate committee on foreign relations today. There was not a full attendance of members, and definite action upon it was postponed. The sentiment of the committee, as expressed by those present, was practically unanlmously opposed to action because of the effect upon other nations than the two Involved in the Af rican war. This expression was so gen eral as to make quite certain that no af firmative action will be taken on tie reso lution.

Root Thinks the State Authorities Arc Amply Able to Deal With the Situation. WASHINGTON, Jan. 31. Secretary Root is authority for the statement that there Is nothing In the Kentucky situation calling for federal interference. He thinks the state authorities are amply able to deal with the situation. It cannot be learned that the change In the situation in Kentucky, resulting from I the adjournment of the legislature, has altered the views of the administration as to the wisdom and necessity for Inter vention with troops in state affairs. One member of the administration asserted PORTION OF NATAL IN WHICH GENERAL DULLER IS OPERATING. that regardless of the terminology em ployed In the news dispatches, the legis lature ia technically in a state of reqess. If that be true, of course, the power to call for troops can not be exercised by the govemor'at this time. Another mem ber pointed out that even assuming that the legislature stands adjourned, the United States constitution provides that the governor's call can be recognized only when the legislature can not be convened and he wanted to know If it Is asserted that this state of facts exists. When the point was made that the United States troops might go into Kentucky without call to protect the property of the United States and the mails and Interstate com merce, it was suggested that so far It has not been shown that any of these Interests are even remotely endangered by the developments at Frankfort. Alto gether, as already stated, It Is apparent that, lacking entirely the disposition to use troops In behalf of either party to the complication in Kentucky, the administra tion will be moved from Its present position only by some exceedingly radical change in the condition of affairs. GOVERNOR TAYLOR'S ADDRESS. He Calls for the Support of the Law Abiding Element. FRANKFORT, Ky., Jan. 3L Governor Taylor, this afternoon. Issued the follow ing address to the people: "To the People of Kentucky: The most lamentable statg of affairs ever experi enced by our people has rendered prompt action by the chief executive of the state absolutely necessary. A long series of un precedented and unlawful acts practiced by thdse In charge of the legislative mat ters of our state has resulted In the most fearful period to the state. The dreadful tragedy which occurred yesterday shocked and startled all, and cannot be more sin cerely deplored by any one than myself. "To attempt to legislate under such Con ditions of excitement and threatened vio lence as now prevails in Frankfort would be sheer madness, and I have, therefore. In the exercise of my constitutional pow ers, adjourned the legislature to convene In London, Ky., on February 6. "I have taken every precaution to pre serve the peace, that every citizen may know that life and property are safe, and will be protected with every resource of the commonwealth. I trust that In this laudable effort I will have the support of every law-abiding citizen of Kentucky. " "W. S. TAYLOR, "Governor of Kentucky." SAYS HE SHOT GOEBEL. Sheriff of n Mountain County Ar rested Probably Crazy. LOUISVILLE, Ky., Jan. 31. James Sut ton, sheriff of Whitley county, who came here from Frankfort last night, Is a pris oner in the county Jail. At an early hour this morning, at the "Victoria hotel, Sut ton went up to the office of the clerk brandishing two revolvers. "I am the man who shot Goebel," he said, "and I will never be taken alive." The hotel manager promptly sent for the police, and on the appearance of the latter, Sutton ran up stairs to the third story, and when he thought' he was about to be captured, opened a window and leaped out. He alighted on his feet, was unin jured and ran nearly a mile before he was arrested. The police believe that Sutton Is either decidedly unbalanced mentally or that he knows, who shot Goebel. An effort to In terview nim after he was lodged in Jail proved unsuccessful. He lay In a dark corner of his cell and refused to say a word. Goebclltcs to Be Arretted. CINCINNATI, Jan. 31. A Star special from Frankfort says Governor Taylor is having warrants prepared for every mem. ber of the legislature who has allied him self with the Gocbclites, charging them with conspiracy. Nevr York Brokers Fall. NEW YORK, Jan. 3L The failure of Tunstall & Co. was announced on the stock exchange today. Mr. Tunstall was a very heavy buyer of Sugar stock yester day, taking, according to report, 30.000 shares on his own purchase, and 30.000 10 S,060 shares through another broker. The firm sent this notice to the stock ex change: "Owing to the bank refusing to' certify our checks, we were obJged to suspend temporary. We hope to make satisfac tory settlement shortly." 1 u I FACTORIES WERE BUSY. Magnificent Showinc; for the Last Calendar Year. WASHINGTON, Jan. 31. Manufactur ers were apparently the busiest people'ln this busy country of ours In 1899. They Increased their Importations of materials for use in manufacturing 33 per cent over the busy year 189S, and actually increased their exportations of manufactures nearly 25 per cent, so that the grand total of manufactures exported during the year reaches $380,000,000, and seems likely to touch the J.400,000,000 line in the fiscal year which ends June 30. 1900. The exports or manufactures, which In 1898 averaged $25, 000,000 per month, averaged over 531.000,000 per month In 1699, or more than $1,000,000 for every day in the calendar year. Be- ginning with $25,806,870 in January, 1899, the figures grew steadily until December showed $35,652,053, Deeember and March of 1899 showing larger exportations of manufactures than those of any preced ing month in our history. Not only are the exports of manufactures In 1899 the largest in any year in our history, but they form a larger percentage of our total exports than those of any preceding year, the percentage being for the calendar year 1899, 30.4 per cent; for 1898, 24.9 per cent, and for 1897, 25 9 per cent. Taking the entire list of classes of arti cles composing our Imports and exports, those relating to manufactures show the largest gains both as to Imports and ex ports. In imports, articles In a crude con dition for use in domestic industries in creased from $199,255,687 to $267,493,959, an increase of $68,236,322; articles of food and live animals, from $187,829,802 to $229,971,385, an Increase of $42,141,583; manufactured articles ready for consumption, from $104, 804,809 to $118,339,856, an Increase of .$13, 535,047; articles manufactured for use in the mechanic arts, from $59,127,686 to $75, 376,005, an increase of $6,248,319, and ar ticles of voluntary use, luxuries, etc., from $83,946,514 to $107,664,266, an Increase. of $23, 717.S52, the comparisons in each case be ing between 1S9S and 1899. In domestic ex ports, manufactures Increased from $307r 924.994 to $3S0,787,891, an Increase of $72, 862,897; products of the mine, from $25,851, 092 to -$33,279,187, an increase of $7,428,095; products of the forest, from $39,030,313 to $47,562,121, an increase of $8,531,806; and miscellaneous, from $3,016,771 to $3,532,663, an increase of $515,892, while products of agriculture decreased from $851,915,762 in 18S8 to $782,105,048 In 1899, a reduction of $69,810,714. and products of the fisheries from $5,819,208 to $5,637,077, a reduction of $182,131.

Three hundred members of the New York board of trada and transportation sat down to the 28th annual dinner of the organization at the Waldorf-Astoria tonight. The guests' ta ble was a perfect bower of roses and ivy. and the balconies and walls were likewise, hung heavily with cut flowers. The toasts were && follows: "The Pres ident of the United States"; "The State of New York"; "Our Foreign Policy," Senator John M. Thurston, of Nebraska; "Our Commercial Supremacy," Charles N. Fowler, of New York; "The Coming Cen tury," Senator William Lindsay, of Ken tucky; "California and the Commerce of the Pacific Coast," Senator George C. Per kins, of California; "Trade and Transpor tation in the State of New York." General Francis V. Greene; "The Humorous Sldo of Politics," Congressman John M. Allen, of Mississippi. The spirit of commercial expansion per vaded all the speeches. The declarations of Senators Thurston and Lindsay in fa vor of upholding the national administra tion In the Philippines were heartily ap plauded. In the course of his speech, Senator Per kins said. In part: "For 50 years California has looked east ward over the mountains and deserts of the interior of the continent, for eastward ran the lines of trade. In future she will look westward over the broad Pacific, for westward will the future lines of trade be run. The battle of Manila marked the end of one era and the beginning of a new one for California and the whole Pacific coast. But California is not the only state looking upon the Pacific which hails with Joy the new era. Oregon and Washington and the great territory of Alaska, parts of territory once under foreign rule, are ready for the new life. "All signs indicate that the Pacific Is to be the scene of the next period of the world's progress. We face Asia across an ocean in which we have points of van tage that will enable us to make it prac tically our own. "There Is a great work wrhlch must be undertaken at once in behalf of Pacific commerce the Nicaragua canal. In order that the United States may be the. center of the coming trade of the Orient, this canal must be constructed. The Pacific coast is now favorably situated to secure the share which belongs to It. The great states east of the Rocky mountains are at a very great disadvantage when compared with their agricultural and Industrial com petitors in Europe. But with the opening of the Nicaragua canal the situation will be immediately changed. The distance from New York to Asiatic ports will be so reduced that the great American metrop olis will be the center of our Oriental trade. A waterway across Nicaragua will at once transfer the present advantage: of European marts to this side of the Atlan tic The entire western coast of the two American continents will be brought near er to the Atlantic ports by over one-third the circumference of the earth. "What kind of government shall be es tablished In the Philippines in place of that established is yet to be determined. Justice to both the Filipino and the Amer ican must be maintained. Until the Fili pino has, through the Influence of a Just and numane government, advanced Jn civ ilization to the point reached by American labor In the field and in the manufactory he must and should be contented with having afforded him the means of rising to that standard. That means will be giv en him in due time, and every encourage ment will be given him to become capable of understanding, appreciating and right ly using the privilege granted to the peo ple of the United States." In response to persistent calls, Senator Hanna addressed the assemblage, taking as his theme the shipping subsidy bill. His assertion that the measure would be en acted Into law was greeted by thunderous applause. Kansas Town Burned. CHICAGO, Jan. 31. A special to the Tribune from Wichita, Kan., says: Fire destroyed the business portion of Winfleld, a town of 6000 Inhabitants, 40 miles south of here, last night, and threat ened the city building and Jail. The Hack ney block, a three-story building, and its entire contents, were burned, and 100 peo ple were made homeless. The Arlington hotel was destroyed, and the Rutter livery barn 'was burned with all the horses. The loss on the Hackney block is $125,000. Cant. J. H.

Copeland and Montgomery, and Being Cured of Long Standing Troubles by These Specialists They Furnish the Most Scientific Treatment of AH Diseases for $5 a Month, Medicines Included. Until the Inno-ratlo'n made by Dn. Copeland and Montgomery, in plac ing xncdlcnl skill and thorough sci entific treatment for all diseases within the reach of all hy makinjr their total charge for treatment nnd medicines at $5 a month, It was al most Impossible -for people in moder ate clrcnmstances to obtain the aid of skillful and conscientious special ists. It was, and still in, for that matter, a frequent occurrence to hear complaints made over the ex cessive fees charged by those claim ing: to be specialists. Drs. Copeland and Montgomery's charge is bat fS a month, including: all medicines, and the time required for a cure under their system Is shorter than that oc cupied by any other method. More over, their cures are genuine and permanent. The fact, that, in spite of their well-established and fairly earned reputation for honest work, skillful treatment and successful results, they still maintain this low charge of J?5 a month, shows that they aim not alone at financial suc cess as practitioners, bnt us well at the accomplishment of the greatest possible good in the community. Their practice, which has long been several times larger than any other in this city, is jtill constantly in creasing, demonstrating continually that the public appreciates low charges when combined with un questionable skill, thoroughness and professional honesty. THESE SPEAK CURED OF A VERY SEVERE AND DANGEROUS THROAT TROUBLE Mr. Lecester Snipes, The Dalles, Or., well known In the vicinity, having been born and raised In that busy little city. In speaking or his treatment and cure of a severe case of catarrh com plicated with bronchial trouble, Mr. nlpes said: "My troQble came on about 15 years ago as a result of exposure, and In spite of all I could do I grew gradually worse each year and suffered more intensely. "My home physicians were unable to da anything for me more than afford a little temporary relief. Some of the doc tors I consulted said I had asthma, and one of the very best physicians on- the coast diagnosed my case as consumption, and said my only hope was In a ohange of climate. I held a very fine position at that time, which I gave up at a great sacrifice, and did as he advised. I stayed away until I seemed entirely well, but Just as soon as winter set In my trouble returned and I suffered worse than ever. Mr. Lecestcr Snipes, The Dalles, Or. "My head wa3 stopped up and I had headache all the time. My throat was dry and sore and I had a distressing cough, accompanied by pains In the chest and a soreness through the left lung. After I went to bed there would be a tick ling in the throat, which set me to cough ing. The air passages seemed to contract and close up. I would sit up in bed, sometimes the greater part of the night, coughing and gasping for breath. I often thought I would choke before I could get relief. After coughing until I was completely exhausted I would raise a lot of stringy mucus, which gave me relief, but the next night it was the same old story. Under this suffering and loss of sleep I lost flesh and strength. "I had doctored until I had but little confidence in doctors or medicine, but this fall, on the urgent advice of a friend, who was personally acquainted with the great success of the Copeland treatment In cases like mine, I decided to make one more effort for relief, for I felt I could not spend another winter In suffering and misery. I began to Improve from the first and now feel as well as I ever did In my life. The winter Is almost over now and although I have been out in all kinds of weather, I have not had one bit of trouble.
