-WASHINGTON, ilarch 10. Allen (Pop.

report to the Senate why the Secretary
of tho Senate has not, for several years,
reported at tho beginning of each session
'the number of clerks, messengers and
other employee, together with their sal''
aries, in accordance with the provision of
tho statutes. Allen 5aidthe statement has
not been made izr Qtetalears: The

by the Senators -had bean violated and the
Senate force haa been rapidly 4ncreased,
until now it numbered about $03 -persons,
drawing aggregate salaries of $510,00!). The
resolution passed.
The resolution reported- from the com
mittee on contingent expenses, authorizing
the committee on relations with Cuba to
have a. subcommittee visit Cuba, was ob

, that she had been thp subject of cruel
calumnies, which he was assured liad not
the slightest foundation In fact He was
satisfied her life had been quite blameless
and spotless.
Tillman (Dem. S, C.) insisted that if any
obligation existed a all., it was one of
Hawaii and not of the "United States.
Piatt (Rep..Cbnu:Vdld ii ."believe the
ex-Queen hadtha dlghtest claim on the

not agree to legislation that recognized her
right to any -such payments.
Gallinger (Rep. N. H.) denounced the
proposed appropriation as utterly unjus
tifiable. Lodge (Rep. Moss.), while admitting that
the ex-Queen Tiad no claim on the United
States, said the proposition made was
simply as air act of grace.
Thurston (Rep. Neb.) suggested the do
nation to the ex-Queen bf ulump sum. He
. strongly opposed putting her" on the pen
sion rolls of the United States.
Cockrell (Dem. Mo.). li opposition to"
tne amendment, declared it was a dan-1
gerous precedent to establish at this time.
"If we are to pension all the monarchs
dethroned from our Islands," said he. "we
are likely to have our hands full. There
will be the ueen of Hawaii, the Queen
of the Sufus? aiid tnemonardhs of mans-'
other places. Headed by the. Queen of
Hawaii, with $10,000. the list will go dowh
to 5tW3 for somebody else, then to 57O0O
and finnlly wind up with a pension of 55090 '
for widows of Presidents of the United

HRESURETOF THE ECROR.r;
EfTorfarto'-lWeoTer-It Cascd TroKlile
at Santiago.
SANTIAGO DE CUBA, March 10. Ri
valry over the possession of a &zS. e belong
ing to the sunken Spanish torpedo-gunboat
Furor almoft caused a second naval battle
yesterday. Cendoya, the agent of the
Ward lire, with his Cuban partners, has
been engaged for "several months in wreck
lngvlhe jvarshJps.. and has. performed con
siderable work In dynamiting the Furor,
which work was difficult on account of the
depth of the water, 12 fathoms. Recently
he located. a safe supposed to contain $12,
000 in Spanish gold, and returned to find
tho "buoy Temoved. He was compelled to
come to this city for a pilot, and returned
to the wreck of the Furor ye&terdny,
where he found the American transport
Willlamd, with a diver down. A rival
diver thereupon descended, and each of
them claimed he was the flrVt to take'pos
session of He-safe. A quarrel -ensued,
and the transport's diver came up. alleg
ing that his rival had threatened him with
a knife. Cendoya's diver attached a line
to the safe, -nhich .he and his companions
claim the American officer took forcibly,
intimidating them with rifles from the
transport. Captain Parr says the line
failed to raise the safe, and that their
diver succeeded in attaching a line which
secured tho treasure., , , ,
On board the Williams were Captain
Brunt,' aa this Quartermaster in charge of
the transport; Lieutenant Hamilton, an
engineer officer, and Superintendent Fow
ler, of the Barber Asphalt Company. The
American officers disclaim any financial
Interest in the expedition. Captain Blunt
says he allowed the divers and others to
use the Williams temporarily when she
was not needed, and stood on her deck
with a rifle, which he says was not loaded,
during the nuarrel. He disclaims any in-
. tendon of using his position, his uniform
or J his arms to intimidate the Cuban
divers. Lieutenant Hamilton says he ac
companied the expedition as a spectator.
Both boats eventually-returned to the
harbor, and Cende-ya seoured -an order
from tho Court directing the police to
take possession of the safe. Fifteen
armed policemen on the tug Colon followed
the Williams, maneuvering around the
baj- for an hour. Finally the tug went
alongside "the Williams, and the police,
with drawn revolvers, prepared to board
her, when Captain Cooper, commanding
the WIHjams.. confronted them with a rifle
and annpunreeffiis Jntentlpn'to'liill Jbe first
man who 4sSRPe.a 9J1 'board. ,Hp claimed
the vtY&.S0UftS na.ho. 4.yrisd'lctlpn over
G9vero?ien. shirs. The police, thereupon,
retreated behind the pHqt-house, and the
Colo xcturned to her wharf.
Cendoya then reported the matter to De
partment Commander Whiteside, who or
dered Staff Adjutan Harford to Investi
gate -the matter Harford-and some press
representatives searched the WHHams at
midnight, nd no safe- was found. Cap
tain Blunt and Captain Cooper disclaim
any knoVjcpge of-the prescHtp bereaboufs
of the safe, which Fowler says was- thrown
overboard..Fowter decllnedto say whether
thp coin had been removed. He had a
half interest in the expedition, and says
he is a partner of McGrail. a civil em
ploye of Captain Blunt's office. Cendoya
Is an American citizen, and makes serious
barges against Captain Blunt," which
Commander Whiteside wfll .JhveFtlgate.

continued at the Coeur d'Alene Investiga
tion today. He was closely questioned by
Reprsentatlves Mondell and Dick as to his
presence on the train which carried the
rioters' party tp Wardner.
He maintained that he was there by
chance, and had no knowledge of, or part
in, the Attack, on the null. He saw some
armed andmasked -ran, but the. serious",
ness. pf 4the sltuatipn.. did. not appear to
him until af tpr the mljl -was. blown -up, At
one time, he said, an unknown man pinned:
a ribbon .on .his coat, but there was no ex
planatlon of Its meaning. From a distance
he saw the explosion, and afterwards saw
one of the men, Shayne, lying shot on the
roadside.
The cross-examination' of Martin lasted
throughout the'day, and was very rigid."
It led to frequent sharp controversies be-tween-ReprtefentatlvesLentz
and Sulzer on

and Mondell on the .other; -relative to the

that he had no participation in the blow

out of the country. He said that at one
time, when he sought a permit, he was
told to apply to the Governor, COO miles
away, -at Boise. The investigation will
continue Monday.
A BIRD 2IUSICALE.
Story for Children In Omnlia Maga
zine, by a. Portland Girl.
In the February number of "The ChiU
dren of tho United States," a magazine
published at Omaha by Grate Sorenson,
appears the ""following story, by Miss
Clara Boot.- of- Portland. Tho storv is
entitled "The Musicale pf tho Oregon
Birds":
I was awakened one morning in early
Spring by a sweet serenade at my win
dow, and on looking out saw my very dear
friend Robin Redbreast a-tllt on a bough.
There came to my window one mornlnsr In
Spring,
A pwcet little Robin who came there to sing-.
And the song that he sang was sweeter b far
Than e er I heard on a flute or guitar.
I said, opening the window.
No," he said, "I have come to invite
you to a musicale to' be given to wel
come back our feathered friends from
their Winter outing in tho South."
Robin knew I was interested- in his
friends and had more than once taken
it upon himself to entertain some of
"fhem at my expense m snow time, with
crumbs on my window sill. It was no
more than right that he should be polite
enough to entertain me In return. I was
pleased to be able to go, and told him so.
At the appointed time I started over
the hills back of our city, and soon
reached the secluded spot prepared by
Dame Nature for the event. Robin, who
had the affair in charge, looked very
Important and quite stunning In his
brown jacket and red vest. A few of the
guests had already arrived, and others
wore coming all the time. Robin called
my attention to the beautiful costume
of the cedar bird, who really looked fine
in his reddlshrpurple coat and yellow
vest. Robin said he took his name from
his fondness for the cedar berry. Then
Robin ( who is, you know, a great gos
jp)A tPld, me of a disgraceful affair In the
cedar Jblrd family;, that one memh.er of
It had eaten so .greedily of tfeese berries
that he had died the death of a glutton
a warning to all little boys and girls
who are given to eating too much.
All the time we were talking two mag
pies near by kept up a continual fuss
and chatter, which looked as If It might
end In a regular quarrel. Robin went to
settle the matter. Theso birds build their
homes In the treetops and make them of
coarse material plastered together with
clay. They are made as nice and soft
as can be with feathers, wool apd hair,
and a roof to cover them. A little open
ing is left for them td go in and out. 7h
rainy, blustery days how snug and rosy
they must be. Whatever the trouble was
with theso noisy guests, the appearance
of two modest "quakcr-llke turtle doves
absorbed all their attention. In fact, the
whole company seemed Impressed with
these exclusive guests, whose gentle man
ners and perfect dress showed them to
be members of very good -society Indeed.
As so many of the company had by this
time arrived. Robin called, the musi
cians to their places for-'the opening
chorus: "The meadow lark with his
sweet roundelay, "the merry brown
thrush," the linnet, the bluebird, and
Other noted songsters filled the air with
sweet melody: '
The crow asked to be excused from the
chorus, owing. , to throat, trouble, which.
was made worse by the recent severe
celd. He had net been able to go Sodth
for the Winter. He spoke at length, how
ever, about his trouble with the farmers,
who, he said, had unjustly treated him
and had placed guard bver their choicest
bit of corn a- most disreputable-looking
character, called "scare crow." but
whose did coat In no way resembled his
own glossy black"bne: "
Regrets were sent by the raven be
cause he was in mourning, and by the
night owl, who had been out the night
before on business and needed rest an.d
quiet. As ne couldn't sing anyway, and
had such a disagreeable way of staring
at everybody, we didn't miss him very
much.
The swallow was very social, if not very
musical, and had bltsof gossip, good ad
vice or weather forecasts for any one
who would listen. Among the most styl
ish guests I noticed the red-winged black
bird, the purple martin, the golden and
bald eagle and the blue jay. with his blue
coat and snowy breast, but who had rath
er a doubtful reputation, Robin told me,
since It was whispered about that he had
been known to suck the egg3 of other
birds and even to kll their young. I
hated to "believe this 'or so-beautiful a
creature, Robln. shqwed good Judgment
In placing1 the" henv hawk a;gobd distance
from the lark, as they were not on good
terms on account of a family quarrel of
long standing.
An uninvited guest, the sparrow, wished
to state his grievances. He said that
everybody had been talking about him
and wished to get rid of him, and that
even in the public press he had been
termed a .nuisance oecause he had built
his nest In street lamps and spouts. The
company sympathized with him, but ad
vised himTto keep oft public streets and
highways.
Jenny Wren was among the last to ar
rive, and the first to go. as nearly hef
whole time and attention was taken up
with family affairs. As she set the ex
ample In leaving, the rest followed, bid
ding one another pleasant good-byes. I
went with the rest, after thanking Robin
for his kindness in having me present
with tho most interesting children of
Nature.
. TRADE WITtf CANADA.
Dominion Tariff May-Be liOrrered, to
Onr Prejudice.
Baltimore Sun.
Tho growth of the Imperial sentiment in
Canada, as evidenced by the dispatch of
Canadian troops to South Africa, may also
t,ake practical shape in the way of tariff,
legislation. It Is reported from Ottawa
that the Canadian Government proposes at
the-coming session of the Dominion Parlia
ment to clve Enirland tho heneJtt of a dif
ferential tariff -of -40 per cerfC Although
the differential Is already" 23 per cent,
American manufacturers add producers
have been able to compete successfully in
Canada with their British rivals.
A discrimination of 40 per cent in favor
of Great Britain would not be so readily
met, however, especially in view of the in
timation from Ottawa that the differential
rnay be Increased to 50 per cent. The
United States has asubstantial trade with
Qanada. In lESS the value ofAmerlcan
goods sold to the Canadians wag SSO.OOO.OOO.
while the British exports to Canada ag
gregated only $30,000,000. On the other
hand. Great Britain bought gopds from
Canada to the amount of $100,000,000, while
our purchases of Canadian products were
about $30,000,000. Our tariff laws have not
been of a character to please the Cana
dians; but, .on the contrary", seem to have
beeif designed to shut, them out of the
LAmerJtean market. ur-dTUlelf. upon the
lumDer. nsn and coal or th.e Dominion are
almost prohibitory, and are In the inter
est of the trusts in this country.
We have treated our neighbors very
shabbily in the way of affording them fa
cilities Sor commerce with us, and It Is
no wonder they turn to Great Britain.
which buys annually nearly three and.
one-half times as much from them as the
people of the United States. As. wo have
discriminated against the Canadians, and.
continue to discriminate against them, It
Is only natural they should ".fight the
devil with fire' and give us the same
treatment which we have dealt out to
them. If the United States loses the
Canadian market It will have only Its pro
tected Interests to thank for the loss of a
trade which is valuable and could be In
creased with reasonable tariff restrictions.
It Is folly to assume that tha Canadians
will submit without a protest to the dog-in-the-manger
policy of our ""infant Indus
tries." a

Commercial Treaties With, the United
States Xot Endangered Fleet
BUI Depends on tho Issue.
BERLIN,- March JO. The action of the
Reichstag yesterday evening regarding
the meat bill was eagerly commented
upon. Tho declaration of Prince Hohon
lohe and Count von Posadowskl-Wehner
had tho effect of discomfiting the Agra
rians. Some of the papfers hitherto strong
ly in favor of the committee reDort, like
the Neuste Nachrichten. now say they
are unable to call the Reichstag's action
wise. The National Zeltung rakes Count
von Posadowskl-Wehner over tho coals
becauso of his "shilly-shallying with tho
Agrarians," 'instead or flrmly declaring
tho government's Intentions. It continues:
"Count von Posadowskl-Wehner's abuse
of. those who endeavor to re-establish the
government bill, and his defense of tho
Agrarians' Insatiable greed. Is character
istic. Count von Posadowskl-Wehner
on all important occasions returns to his
first love the Agrarians and seldom
misses the opportunity to throw mud on
us. The statistics Count Pasadowski
Wehner uses to prove that the Americans
have by far the largest Interest in pre
serving cordial commercial relations with
Germany are untrustworthy."
Protest meetings against the meat bill
continue. The Berlin: -Chamber of Com
merce has called a meeting for tomorrow,
at which representatives of. all German
Industries and commerce will beT presents
To a certain extent the naval bill de
pends upon the Issue of the meat bill. The
Bundesrath will hold an extra session
Monday to consider the question of 'raising
the cost of the fleet increase.
Herr Rlchter's Fresslnnige Zeitung
demonstrates by official statistics tfcat.
the receipts of the empire are steadily
declining. 'W that for 1S93 thn Rimnn
states furnished "8.0W.O0O marks, to? the
empire to-, re-establish the equilibrium.
Herr Richter argues therewith that tho
whole of the government's calculations
about the naval bill's expenses are er
roneous, and that the cost of the fleet
must be raised by taxes.
It is semiofficially given out by the Im
perial Department of the Interior that the
preparatory work on the projected com
mercial treaties Is far advanced. All the
negotiations with each country start out
with 4he geperal.Germ.an tariff figure, as
In the case with Austrian cereals and
Russian cereals, but as the negotiations
progress the most Important articles aro
singled out as the main objects.
From Inside information It may be said
that tho Imperial Government will never
accept paragraph 14 or the meat bill.
Therefore, it is not considered that the
cdmmerclal treaties with the United
States aro endangered by yesterday even
ing's vote. There Is no occasion for
Americans to get excited
Prince Von Hohenlohe told the repre
sentative of tho Associated Press that tho
Bundesrath Is willing to accept the law

Catarrh Causes Consumption
VICE-PRESIDENT ROXA
Roxa Tyler, vice-president of the Illi
nois Woman's Alliance, speaks In high
praise of Peruna to restore tired nerves
and weak body. In a letter written to
Dr. Hartman from 310 East Sixtieth street,
Chicago, III., she says the following:
"During the past year I gradually
lost flesh and strength until ! was un
able to perform my work properly. I
tried different remedies, and finally
Peruna was suggested to me. It gave
me new life and restored my strength.
I cannot speak too highly of it.'
MIs3 Anna Carsten, Clayton, 111., says:
"Your Peruna did me so much good.
I believe I should
have been dead by
this time had I not
used It. I am feel
ing so well now.
I have not takeri
any medicine for
f6ur of "five month.
I can cheerfully
recommend Peruna
to my friends'."'
Mr. 'Peter- Hat
tenberger. Porter

-"I suffered with
chronic catarrh for
Miss -Anna Carsten, TL

all the symptoms of consumption. Through
the use of Peruna I am how well and
happy."
Catarrh of the lungs Is-, ordinarily,
known as consumption;- also called tuber
culosis. In these cases the catarrh, has
usually found Its way Into the lungs by
the gradual extension of the disease from
the throat through the bronchial tubes..
Consumption Is the natural termination of
all cases of neglected chronic catarrh. Ev-

ery ono who Is afillctpd with chronic ca
tarrh Is liable to be attacked with con
sumption at any time. In the first stages
of the disease Peruna Is a sure cure; m
the later stages of the disease Peruna can
bo relied upon- to produce great benefit,
and In a large per cent of cases produce
a permanent cure. AH those afflicted with
this dread dls&ase should begin at onco
treatment with Peruna.
Mr. W. W. Strassler. 64 West Mam
street, Corry, Pa., says: "I had tried,
three of the best phy
sicians in Indiana
County, and spent a
great aeal of money, all
to no effect. My
friends said I could not
get well. I had about
given up all earthly
hopes. I weighed HI
pounds. I accidentally:
saw the name Peruna.
l immediately com-f-n. n-p. 1
nenced tak'ng It and
continued taking It until I had taken 12
bottles. I then weighed ISO pounds and
never felt better In my life."
A slight cough, which, without a ves
tige 'of do'ubt, would soon disappear
with the use of Peruna, bacomes
chronic bronchitis, which requires a
persistent use of Peruna for some
time". There arc a great many cases
of consumption every ytarduc directly
to a neglect of coughs, colds, etc.,
which, if Peruna had been kept In the
house and used according to directions,
would have been prevented.
