TO PROVIDE REVENUE
A Solution Presented by Sen
ator Pugh of Alabama.
AN ISSUE OF TREASURY K0TES
Authorizes tlie Publication of His Let
ter to That Effect An Apparent
Bid for the Sllrer Vote.
Washington, Jan, 17. Pugh of Ala
bama eecured recognition eoon after the
senate met today to present what he
regarded as a solution of the present
lack of government revenue. The sena
tor varied the usual custom in introduc
ing a hill by reading the fall text of his
measure, with great deliberation, and
then commenting on it. The bill pro
vides for the immediate issue of $100,000,
000 treasury notes to meet the deficien
cies, these notes to be redeemable in
coin and to be constanly reissued. It
farther directed the coinage of the seig
niorage and the deposit of silver, bullion
from American mints. Hill asked if the
senator wished immediate consideration
of thiB bill. "That question," said Pugh,
is in line with the New York senator's
treatment of all great questions, and I
decline to answer it."
Pugh proceeded to urge the gravity
of the present situation. It was such
that he was ready to surrender convic
tions he had long held in order to secure
a remedy. "Thus far," said Pugh, "the
senators have stood here and torn down,
but it is bard to build up. We have
torn down until we have nearly torn
down the country." Pugh begged that
the finance committee, in which be bad
great confidence, should do something
st once.. He did not believe the sena
tors we're a lot of Muscovite drakes, bow'
ing and sleeping stupidly. Allen inter
rupted to ask as to the attitude of the
administration on this bill. "Cleveland
nas sent a message to congress calling at
tention to present conditions' respond'
ed Pugh, with great earnestness. "The
president and hia secretary of the treas
ury have offered a scheme for currency
revision designed to meet the present
evils. If this is not accepted, let both
houses propose something else. The
president has discharged bis duties, now
let ns do the same." The bill was re'
. ferred to the finance committee.
Sherman submitted another import
ant financial measure. It provides for
the issue and sale of bonds under the
provisions of the resumption act from
time to time as the deficiencies of the
treasury require, the proceeds to be
wholly used tor deficiencies, and the
bonds to ran for five years at a rate not
to exceed 3 per cent, interest. The se&
ond section provides that in lieu of the
foregoing bonds the secretary of the
treasury may isiue coin certificates in
denominations of $5 to $100, bearing 3
per cent interest, and put the certificates
in circulation through the treasury and
postoffices. The third section deals with
the deposit of bonds in national banks
Sherman's bill was referred, without
comment, to the finance committee.
Mauifesto by the Pretender.
Versailles, Jan. 17. The Duke
Orleans, pretender to the throne o
France, issued a manifesto today ad'
dressed to Senator Buffel. It dwells up
on the dangers of the present crisis
claiming the president's letter of resig
nation is an indictment of the present
constitution. The republic of France
the duke claims, can never be other
than a provisional regime. Continuing
the manifesto Bays :
'The hour is near at hand when the
country will wish to return to the form
Uof government which was the glory of
us past, ana is tne guarantee or its in
tnre. Providence, in making me re pre
sent the monarchy, imposes upon me
eavy heritage, but the day my country
cJls me I shall find attendance, and, in
my devotion, force to fulfill my whole
task. My life and blood will belong to
France ; to that France which my an
cestors made great and respected. That
will be the work of tomorrow. The task
of today will be to overcome immediate
dangers."
The manifesto concludes with an ap
peal to the friends of monarchy to vote
for the candidate best able to maintain
internal order, social peace and France's
honor abroad. "
31. Felix Faare Blected.
Vebsailles, Jan. 17. M. Felix Faure
was elected president on the second bal
lot. The following was the result of the
second ballot as far as the leading candi
dates are concerned: Faure, 450, Bris
son 361. There were violent socialistic
protests when the result was announced.
After the second ballot had been ordered,
one deputy shouted, "Down with the
presidency; let ua have dissolution;
stop voting." M. de Jeante, socialist,
when his name was called, shouted,
Down with the presidency." The
rumor that Faure was a Protestant was
having a bad effect upon his candidacy,
and Lie shouted, "I am a Catholic,"
There were many exciting scenes during
the balloting. It was reported that if
Brisson was defeated the socialists would
resume their struggle against the gov
ernment.
The Franking Privilege.
Washington, Jan, 17. In the house
today the senate amendments to the
urgent deficiency bill were disagreed to,
and the bill sent to the' conference.
Richardson, chairman of the committee
on printing as a matter of privilege, had
read the paragraphs printed in a local
paper relating to the incorporation in
the printing bill passed at the last ses
sion, of the clause extending the Frank
ing privilege to members of congress
for correspondence with officials and
private individuals on official or depart
ment business. The paragraph indicated
the clause had been incorporated in the
bill snrreptiously. Richardson read
from the Congressional Record showing
the clause had been debated, and adopt
ed by a vote of 12 to 40. The house then
went Into committee of the whole for
further consideration of the Indian ap
propriation bill. '
The Jones Currency Bill.
Washington, Jan. 17, Democratic
leaders of the house are devoting them
selves assiduously to framing a bill upon
which they can agree, and which can
secure a majority in the senate, for the
reorganization of the currency. It is
understood their deliberations are based
upon the Jones bill. Jones bas perfect
ed the measure, but adheres to his or'
iginal determination not to introduce it
unless he can be reasonably assured in
advance of its passage.' He and the sup
porters of the bill are today trying to as
certain jnst what support can be ob
tained, and in doing this are to a certain
extent, canvassing the republican side
of the eenate as well as the democratic.

magazine removed. A portion of the
dynamite at Butte was taken from
