PASSED' THE SENATE
Catron's Anti-Prizefighting
Bill Rushed Through.
IT MAY BE SIGNED TOMORROW
Fistic Carnival, Therefore, Will
Come off In New Moxico
Xo Enforce the Lav.
Not
I
Washington, Feb. 6. Senator Hoar,
chairman of the judiciary committee,
reported to the senate the Catron bill to
prevent prizefights in federal territory.
It waa passed.
Quay today modified his resolution to
re-commit the tariff bill so as not to in
clude instructions to the committee,
and, at his own request, it went over
until Monday. The populist senators
have decided in caucus to vote solidly
against re-committing the silver substi
tute for the tariff bill to the committee
on finance. If the Democrats stand to
gether against the Quay motion the
decision of the Populists insures its de
feat. IBE ANTI-PRIZEFIGHT BILL..
It 'Will Probably Be Signed Tomorrow
Prepared to Enforce it.
Washington, Feb. 6. The Catron hill
to prohibit prizefighting in federal terri
tory will probably be sent to the presi
dent tomorrow or the nest day. It is
considered almost certain that it will
be signed promptly, thus making it a
law operative immediately. Then the
whole- government authority, judicial
and, if necessary, military, will be in
yoked to Btop the prize fights.
Army officers on duty at the war de
partment are prepared to do all in their
power to execute the provisions of the
Catron hill if called upon when the bill
becomes a law. The precedure of set
ting in motion the machinery of the
army would be for the governor of New
Mexico, or any territory which may be
the scene of an unlawful gathering, to
call upon the United States marshal of
the territory to act, and he might, if he
felt it necessary, call upon the United
States troops for assistance. The war
department authorities say they have an
ample force in New Mexico and adjacent
to the border to take care of any number
of sports likely to be there to take the
chances of arrest on charges of felony by
attending the prizefight. Army officers
feel confident the troops will not be
called for, believing the law will compel
the abandonment of the project to pull
the fights off in the territory.
All Spain Aroused.
Madrid, Feb. 6. The resolution on
the belligerency of the Cuban insurgents
of the United States senate committee
on foreign relations has created a great
sensation in Spain. The Epoca says of
it:
"President Cleveland surely cannot
forget the traditions of American policy.
The Confederates, during the late war,
were not recognized as belligerents, noi
were the Chilean insurgents in their
last war."
The Heraldo is indignant, and advises
the government to send an ironclad
squadron to Cuba. The Correo says the
attitude of the Benate is offensive and
arbitrary.
NEWS NOTES.
The Chile-Argentina dispute is to be
amicably settled..
The senate Indian committee have au
thorized a favorable report on Senator
Pettigrew's bill for the taxation of lands
alloted to Indians in severalty.
The Palmer house, Chicago, will be
the rallying center of the democratic
politicians during the. national conven
tion. Besides the national committee,
twenty-nine states will have their head
quarters at the hotel. Every available
room in the house which can be spared
from the regular trade has been assigned.
The house has been compelled to refuse
quarters to two applying state delegations.

WIH PHOTOGRAPH COLORS.
The Wonderful Ulscovery of a German
Pbyslcian.
New York, Feb. 6. A special to the
Journal from Berlin says:
Hardly has the world had time to re
cover from its astonishment over the
wonderful discovery of Professor Roent
gen in the sphere of photography, when
tiae news is wired from Brandenburg of
an epoch-making discovery which al
ready Jexcites the greatest interest in
scientific, commercial and industrial
circles. The world of art, also is threat
ened with another formidable com peti
tory The inventor is Dr. Zelle, a practicing
physician of Brandenburg. He has con
trived a photographic instrument which
will, in minute details, reproduce the
various colors of objects, persons and
landscapes brought within a special
range of the camera. What is the most
surprising in this experience is that in
the photographs the colors lose rone of
their original brilliant shades. Con
noisseurs speak with the greatest en
thusiasm of Dr. Zelle's remarkable
work.
Dr. Zelle's apparatus does not require
any more time for the perfecting of col
ored photographs than is nsed lor the
colorlesB productions by ordinary cam
eras. Zelle's instantaneous colored photog
raphy, as it will probably be called,
forms the subject today of the leading
journals of the German metropolis." The
inventor keeps the most important fac
tors of his device a 6C3ret. In an ad
dress to the Freie Photographische Ver
eiginung be only admits that his instru
ment contains three very thin gelatine
films placed at equal distances, which
all receive the same impressions of ob
jects within the range of the camera
with this distinction: That on the first
the various tints of red ; on the second
of blue, and on the third those of yellow
are received." Immediately after the
operator has covered his lens, the films
are pressed together and are then ready
for development and retouching. Dr.
Zelle has labored daily for five xears to
perfect his invention, which is . pro
nounced by all a brilliant success.
