VOL. IX THE DALLES, OREGON, TUESDAY, JUNE 9. 1896 " NO 132. DRAWING TO A CLOSE Business Is Being Bushed to a Finish. CONGRESS MAY ADJOURN TOMORROW General Deficiency Bill Ws railed by the Senate Public B sliding for Oakland. Washikgtox, June 8. The new de ficiency bill, framed to meet the objec tions of the president's recent veto, was taken np as soon as the senate met to day. Before proceeding with it, farther conferences were ordered on the Indian and District of Columbia appropria tion bills. Activity and confusion on the floor while the minor measures were hurried through their final stages indicated the near approach of an adjournment. A large attendance overcame the fears entertained that the senate was to be left without a quorum. Wolcott asked immediate considera tion for a resolution directing the com mittee on library to investigate the cir cumstances of the award of the statue of General William Tecumseh Sherman, . Rohlemith's design having been se lected, and requesting the secretary of war to suspend execution of the contract until the report made at the next ses sion. Allison wanted the resolution to go over, under the rales, until tomorrow. Wolcott suggested that there might not be a session tomorrow. Allison re marked that he thought there would be a session tomorrow. Hawley suggested that there were two sides to this statue question. The reso lution went over. When the deficiency bill had been read Harris offered an amendment covering the claims under the Bowman act, which had been omitted in the bouse bill, although there wsb no spe cific objection to them in the veto mes sage. Harris said in the former bill the Bowman claims were coupled with, the spoliation claims, and he felt no interest in them, but these Bowman act claims, amounting to about $500,000, bad been subjected to judicial ecrutiny, and should . be paid as much as any obligation in curred by the government. The amend ment was voted out of order. The deficiency bill was then passed as it came from the house. A letter from the president was read consenting to the withdrawal by the Chickasaw Indians of $100,000 of their trust fund now in the treasury. . A resolution was passed assenting to the withdrawal. The bill was passed appropriating $350,000 for a public building at Oak land, Cal. . A. TEKR1BLE TEBHINATI6N. Murder and Suicide the Outeome of a Llaiaon. San Francisco, June 8. John W.

Blakeley & Houghton desire ns to pub lish the following extract from a letter of Cbas. M. Gutfeld of Reed ley, Fresno eounty, Calif., as they handle the rem edy referred to and want their customers to know what a splended medicine it is: "It is with pleasure I tell you that by one day's use of Chamberlain's Cough remedy I was . relieved of a very bad cold. My head was completely stopped up and I could not sleep at night. - I can recommend this remedy." A cold nearly always starts in the head and afterwards extends to the throat and lungs. ' By using this 'remedy freely as soon as the cold has been contracted it will cure the cold at once and prevent it from extend ing to the lungs. Two LlTes Saved.
