for Trampling on the Prerogatives
of the People.
Washington, Jan. 8. The first busi
ness in the bouse today was a resolution
from the committee on rules anthorizing
the appropriations committee to insert a
clause in the sundry civil appropriation
bill.
Debate on the currency bill being re
sumed, Beltzhooven, democrat, of Penn
sylvania, gave notice of an amendment.
It proposes a section to enable the secre
retary of the treasury to fund treasury
notes which may be in circulation after
the first of August, 1895, which were
issued under acts of February 25, 1865 ;
July 11, 1862; March 3, 1863, and July
14, 1890. by issuing bonds to an amount
not to exceed $500,000,000, redeemable
at the pleasure of the United States after
five years, payable in twenty-five years
from date of issue, with interest at 3 per
cent, payable semi-annually in gold
The bonds are to be of such' denomina
tions, not les than $20, as the secretary
may determine, and to be sold at not
less than par for gold or for treasury
notes.
The members flocked around Sibley,
democrat, of Pennsylvania, when he be
gan.i characteristic address against the
bill. He was applauded when he said :
"it ever a rebuke was needed lor one
who has attempted to trample down the
prerogatives of the people, it is needed
for him who has attempted to usurp this
eptire government to himself. The time
has come when there should be some
thing more than brace, belly and brass
to this government.'.'
bread.',- After booting the government,
the procession went to the dry docks
where is the berth of the British war
ship Tourmaleine, which was sent here
to help preserve order. A committee
boarded the ship and represented to the
captain that they and their families
were starving. They insisted that the
government should feed them. They
threatened to take the necessaries of
life from the stores. . The captain in
timated that such attempts' would be re
pressed with a strong hand. The dele
gation finally withdrew. Starvation is
becoming more general daily.. Lady
O'Brien's committee Btarted two soup
kitchens 'today.
Bis Young Wife to Be Eancated.
Louisville, Ky., Jan. 7. Cassius
Marcellus Clay, the "Old Lion of White
hall," is carrying out his plan of educat
ing his young wife to fit her for her new
station in life. A few days ago he en
gaged a governess, Miss Josie Martin, of
Munfordville, who has gone to White
hall to give Mrs. Clay lessons in deport
ment, music and the ordinary branches
of learning. Mrs. Clay is only 15 years
old, and has little more than the rudi
ments of an education. She has had ab
solutely no experience in society, and is
as ignorant of the graces of dress and de
portment as of mathematics or the
sciences. Miss Martin is expected to
make a finished lady of her.
( Bngar Planters Lose.
Washington, Jan. 8. The district
court of appeals today affirmed the de-
cision of the district supreme court re
garding thg Grant Miles .Sugar Manu
facturing and Planting Company of
Louisiana. A mandamus was asked
compelling Secretary Carlisle and In
ternal Revenue Commissioner Miller to
proceed under the law awarding sugar
bounties, notwithstanding its repeal by
the new tariff law. The case was brought
as a test suit. An appeal to the United
States supreme court ia yet open to the
planters, the case having gone against
them in all inferior tribunals.
Those Tariff Complications.
Washington, Jan. 7. What' action
congress will take to end the growing
tariff complications between this gov
ernment una European powers, or
whether any measures will be adopted
for that purpose, are questions clouded
in uncertainty. Considering the im
portance of the tariff war to commercial
interests, the attention given it by con
gress is noticeably Blight.
Chairman Wilson recently introduced
a bill in accordance with the recom
mendation in the president's message to
repeal the one-tenth of a cent differen
tial on sugar which evoked protests from
Germany and Austria, and which it is
stated inspired retaliatory action by the
former government in the form of pro
hibition of importation of American
beef. But it is not altogether certain
that the ways and means committee
will report this bill to the house. Mr.
Wilson was asked about the prospects of
the bill, but did not epeak enthusiastic'
ally of them. . He said the remaining
time of this congress was very short and
there would be a great pressure on the
the committee for allotments of time for
various bills.
Mr. Cannon of Illinois said if the ways
and means committee would propose to
re-enact the reciprocity system which
congress had obliterated witb marked
discourtesy to foreign governments par
ties thereto, as well as to the detriment
of American business, he said sarcastic
ally, that the republicans would co-oper
ate with them heartilv. '

Governor Millard Gaining.

Clarke, of the superior court, was Been
at 1 :30 this afternoon and asked regard
ing the administering of the oath to
Lieutenant-Governor Millard, replied
I administered the oath yesterday af
ternoon, but I do not think it amounts
to anything. It was simply done as a
precautionary measure, and carries no
weight whatever with it. I am given to
understand that a committee of the sen

time the oath will be administered in
their presence, which would ,'make it
legal. - Governor Millard is ' still on the
