SHERMAN'S SILVER BILL DOOMED The National Quarantine to Restrict Immigration Will Pass. A PPKOTKU BT TBI COMH1TTBK I Senator Kyle and Pefler Kzpeettoff I to Act With the "I'lkiowB Quantity." Special to Thk CHKOHICI.B. Washington, Dec. 10. Congress is jogging along very quietly, careful of making any breaks. The republican members feel that it is not for them to propose, and the democrats feel the necessity for going slow on anything new, and they appear to' be in doubt alout some things that are not' new. The republicans say the democrats are waiting to ascertain Mr. Cleveland's wishes before showing their hands. There is at least one thing npon which the Cleveland 'democrats and the Hill democrats appear to be in perfect ac cord. That is the repeal of the Sher man silver law.' Senator Hill has' him self introduced a bill in the senate for its repeal, and a similar bill hasbeeu introduced in the house by Representa tive Williams, of Massachusetts, who is one of the most ardent admirers of Mr. Cleveland in congress. The- introduc tion of these bills indicates that the democrats expect nothing to be accoru-. plished by the International Monetary conference, and they are not alone in that expectation. If the talk of members is any indica tion it seems safe to predict that-. Presi dent. Harrison's recommendations con cerning a further restriction of immigra tion, and the establishment of a national quarantine, will be acted upon at this sessiou. A bill has been introduced ir the house by a-democrat. to provide for a national quarantine, and one in the senate by a republican to suspend im migration one year from next March. This last bill is approved by both senate and house immigration committees, and will also be introduced in the bouse, so that it can be pushed without, any un necessary delay. Senators Kyle and Peffer appear to be fully alive to the importance of their votes in the organization of the senate of the 53d congress, and neither of them will give' the slightest indication of which party they intend to vote with in the organization of the senate.' It is ap parent, however, from their conversa tion that they expect, with other third party senators yet to be elected, to hold the balance of power in the next senate, anil that their intention is to insist upon certain concessions from the party that gets their votes. - , Secretary Foster's annual report, in which tie shows, to his satisfaction, that there should he a surplus, instead of the predicted deficit, for the fiscal year end ing June 30, 1894, is not as comforting as one would have supposed such infor mation would lie to the democrats who i are now engaged in preparing the bills i carrying the appropriations for that year, which, must be passed by the present congress, for the very simple reason tiaf i they do not accept the secretary's figure. . In a quiet way the speakership of the next house is already exciting consider able intej-est, and ii it shall soon he ap parent that .. eprese-itative Hooker's bill changing the time for congress to meet from Decern ber to March stands a good chance of lecoraing a law at this season, that, interest will become all-absorhing. Mr. Crisp is the only avowed candidate, and he has the advantage of possession ; but there are four gntieinen ; Wilson of West Virginia; Bynuiti of Indiana; Mc Millan, of Tennessee, and Breckenridije of Kentucky;, any one of whom Inay become a competitor, with the backing of Mr. Cleveland.

A Hunting Kxpluit- On Tuesday a hunting party com posed of Messrs. W. E. Garretson, Hal French, Deputy U. S. Marshal Jameson and Railroad Eugineer Kelley, left the city for the upper Colombia hunting grounds near Squally Hook, about fifty utiles from this place, on a bunting spree for wild geese. They arrived at their destination O K, and proceeded to build blinds to shield . tbeiit from the game as it flew past, and after tbey had fairly secreted themselves comfortably and were ready to'opeu their batteries on the game, up came one of those wind storms which that- locality is noted for, and scattered ; their shelters and ' the gunners unceremoniously. " They went into consultation' and decided to croes-f the river and try their luck on the oppo site side, and took a small boat, put their hunting paraphernalia aboard and embarked, determined to have geese or starve. The river was rough when they started, but after they had reached the middle of the 'stream, 'which is nearly a half of a mile wide, it was rougher still and the waves ran mountains high. The water was too cold to think of a bath on a December eve, so one of the party, who was more accustomed to the throttle than the oar, prayed the others to return, which they did, resigned to the ill luck that 'was theirs. The next thing to do, as it was getting late, was to look out for tbe train. In due time it came along, and to their chagrin the conductor fondly told them to wait for the passenger train which, unknown to them, was six or eight hours late. They sought a sheltered nook and built a fire and made the best of the situation they could. ' Tired and hungry . they waited and waited until the early morn ing came, and the delayed train stopped and brought them home yesterday about 9 o'clock u.. in., with nary a goose', but a hungry set, .. rOSHIL LKTTKR. Sullivan' Counsel Pronounced "A Tery r'oullxh Fear." v. - Speciato Tub Chko.mclb. ? Fosil, Or., Dec2.-The Roslyn bank robbery affair is the subject of the hour and is talked of in every- place from the peaceful fireside to the public bar. From tbe stories in print about George Zachary and others one is very likely to form an erroneous idea of these so-called bank robbers. The story about Geo. Rose being convicted of cattle-stealing and then being simply fined hardly gives duo credit to our law-abidingcitizens. The jury found Rose guilty all right enough; Judge Bradehaw imposed the sentence. W hile the general reputa tion of these men is rather shady we certainly object 13 having it said that they ever influenced the administration of justice through fear of them by the officers, either local or county. All agree that Sullivan made a "show" of himself, in bringing a small army to capture these ""outlaws." It shows that he took council of a very foolish fear; at any rate. A. A.' Bonney, butcher of The Dalles is out at the Prairie ranch soliciting beef cattle to feed on the " company's Tygh valley ranch during the winter. Bonds for twenty thousand dollars have been raised in the community for the release of Geo. Zachary and Cal. Hale. In fact the people here will be hard to convince that any sheepherder wuuld be likely to have sand enough in his craw to do ae daring a deed as the Roslyn bank robbery certainly was. Zachary and Kiinsy both follow herding as a profession. Axon. . Another Freight Uatrafe.' An Astoria dispatch today reports an other outrageous proceeding of the TJ. P. R. ''system," which occurred at that place yesterday. It says the steamer Homer, of the opposition line, was or dered by the owners of the goods to take on board 6,000 cases of salmon for Shu Francisco, which have been stored r.n the Union Pacific wharf for some time. She was notified by the Union VacinV -agnt at Astoria, that, she would have to pay $500 before" being allowed to land The officers of the Homer refused thi demand, and the steamer dropped down to tbe Main-street wharf. Drays were engaged in moving the salmon from the Un ion Pacific wharf to "Maiu-Street wharf, and the steamer sailed ut 4 p-m. skin eruvtions, and all diseases of the The agent's demand was made on the blood. For lingering coughs and con strength of-' a telegram from Agent I sumption (which is lung- scrofula In its Campbell, in Portland. , , early stages) it is an naparalle! remedy. . Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report JBSQUJYEVtf FURS Ih Dal lea M arketa. Thursday, Dec. 15. The week has been a repetition of the former in trade, absolutely lifeless. The near approach J of the holidays has pro ,.pted some little activity in that line of business. The Notion stores have made a tine display, as also have those who deal, in jewelry and such good, for Christmas and New Year remembrances. Other than this there is nothing doing. ; The market for produce continues un changed. One firm received today 125 sacks of potatoes from below, and other dealers are receiving more or . less daily from the same source. The reason for this Is our farmers are holding fx.r--bet ter prices, and decline to bring them in. . This may be wise and it may not. ". The egg and poultry market is station ary, as -is the butter. There-:are no changes in prices in anything but apples which have advanced. Portland quota tions are $2.00 per Ikx for prime that ai'a clear of dry rot or codlin moth. ' The mild weather does not help the' hay market, and offerings are more than purchases, and prices are weak with no indication of t-etter late in the season. Oats are quite abundant and prices re main the same. Barley has advanced slightly, 75 to 80 cents is offered for clean and good. The grain market is weaker. Foreign markets are dnll and nearly lifeless. Some believe there will be a change for the better after the holidays are over,, and then an advanced will be realized. Present home' quotations have certainly, reached the bottom ; 63 cents for Walla Walla in Portland is bottom, and sellers are storing rather than let their hold ings go. Iu The Dalles, prices range faom 52 to 60 cents, and but little chang ing hands at those fignres. Cbronlcle Snap Shots. Anybody is brave when he knows ther people are looking.
