TO REPORT THURSDAY
Ways and Means Committee
Preparing a Bill.
FOR RELIEF OF THE TREASURY
Decided to Remain la SeMlon Until
Some Action Was Taken on the
Recent Urgent Message Sent -In
by tbe President.
J
Washington, Dec. 23. It being gen
erally understood that the ways and
means committee would not be prepared
to report its bill for the relief of the
treasury situation before tomorrow or
Thursday ; the attendance in the bouse
today was comparatively small.
The speaker announced that by inad
vertence Saturday the name of Tracey
(rep.) of Missouri, bad been omitted from
the committee on naval affairs.
After a little argument and objection
from Crisp, in behalf of the minority,
against the chairman of the three elec
tion committees referring the election
contests, the speaker ended the matter
by making a concession and referring
the contests, one to each committee in
regular order.'
Mr. Dingley, chairman of the ways
and means committee, said the commit
tee met this morning and unanimously
decided, in view of the president's mess
age, that it was not appropriate for the
house to adjourn until" a proper response
had been made. "On Thursday," he
continued, "we hope the house will
make a response to the urgent request of
the president and tako - some action
which wilt relieve the situation in which
the country finds itself. (Applause.)
WAYS ASD MEANS COMMITTEE.
The Formal Meeting; Which Was Held,
;Tbls Morning.
Washington, Dec. 23. The ways and
means committee of the house met at 11
o'clock today to take formal steps toward
the preparation of a revenue bill. Thir
teen members were present. The dis
cussion did not reach the question of the
plan which would be brought in, but
was confined .to the policy of having con
gress remain in scsbion, which, as out-'
lined by these dispatches, has already
been determined upon by the republican
leaders. By way of a reply to President
Cleveland's request that congress should
not adjourn, a resolution was presented
by Mr. Payne, of New York. It declared
that it was the sense of the committee
that it was inexpedient for tbe two
houses to adjourn for the holiday recess,
and further consideration of the motion
for holiday adjournment should be post
poned for the present. Dingley was au
thorized to make the statement to the
house. The committee was assured by
Dingley that a bill could bo brought be
fore the house within a very short time.
Although this was not mentioned in the
meeting, it is understood to be the pro
gramme of the leaders to present a full
committee on the day after Christmas
and perhaps bring it before the house
the same day For this purpose the re
publicans of the committee will go into
conference at 7 once. The bill will com
bine a tariff advance for revenue and a
bond bill along the lines of tbe one . in
troduced by Reed in the last congress.
- ' Democratic Assignments.
Washington, Dec. 23. The demo
cratic steering committee of the senate
has decided to assign Walthall, of Miss
issippi, to the democratic vacancy on
the finance committee, and Daniels, of
Virginia, to the vacancy on the judicary
committee. : -'--- .

TOO POOR FOB ELECTRIC HGHT3.
Jerry Simpson Wants Free Sliver and
Free Trade First. .
Topeka, Kan., Dec. 23. The people
of Medicine Lodge, the home of Jerry
Simpson, are very angry with that
statesman for hia answer to a Muncie,
Ind., capitalist, who wrote Simpson,
asking him if the town was a good loca
tion for an electric light plant. Simpson
scared him out with this reply : ' "
- "Medicine Lodge is not the place you
are loooklng for, tor several reasons:
First, not sufficient population, and all
too poor ; can hardly afford to boy oil.
Too much protection and gold standard
has done na up. , Corn 15 cents and
everything else in proportion. Give us
free silver and free trade and then you
can- come oat West your electric light
plant.; We need it, but at present we
can Stand it to read our mortgages by
the light of a 15 cent cim fire."
A Big Rattle in Cuba. ' "
Madeid, Dec. 23. A dispatch from
Colon, province of Matanzis, Cuba, con
firms the report that the Spanish troops
routed 4000 insurgents on Calmena
river. One hundred of the enemy were
killed.
The Turks and Armenians.
Berlin, Dec. 23. The Frankfort Zei
tung publishes a dispatch from Constan
tinople saying that there has been fierce
fighting at.Zeitoun between tbe Turkish
troops who Burrounde 1 the city and the
Insurgent Armenians who defended it.
Both sides are said to have ; Buffered
frightfully. The Turks were 10,000
strong and had 24 pieces of artillery.
The Armenians numbered 15,000 but
had no artillery.
The success that has attended tbe use
of Dr. J. H. McLean's Volcanic Oil Lin
iment in the relief of pain and in curing
diseases which seemed beyond the reach
of medicine, has been truly remarkable.
Hundreds supposed to be crippled for
life with arms and legs "drawn up
crooked or distorted their muscles with
ered or contracted by disease have been
cured through the use of this remedy.
