a Report.
Associated Press.
Washington, Nov. 2. Tho populist
In congress are elated over the pros
pects of the result of the fight for un
conditional repeal, and claim that. It w.'ll
n-'fss tha advocates of free silver !n the
south and west under their banner.
They say that they expect to capture
the presidency in 1890 and are already
sciiously discussing their candidates
There Is a strong sentiment in favor
of Jerry Simpson, and Peffer has
following, Allen, of Nebraska, Is also
enjoying a boom. Watson, of Georgia,
Is spoken of for vice-president.
Many congressmen received today a
card from the American Protective
Association. The card declares that
it is non-sectarian and non-partisan
composed oniy or true Americans re
gardless of nationality, for the pur-I-cee
of purifying politics; attacking
no man's religion as long as he does
not make It an element In politics.
Washington, , Nov. 2. Speaker Crisp
and General Catehlngs of the com
mittee on rules, have decided to repuit
ihe resolution for final adjeurnment
tomorrow at 3 p. m. The house waB
ready to adjourn today but the senate.
desires to dispose of the Chinese bill
If possible, and some nomlnallons will
bo bent by the president before ad
journment. All the nominations which
tan of contirmation when the senate
adjourns will lapse and must be sent
to the senate again. The nomination
over which there is contention is that
of Judge Hornblower, of New York for
a place on the Supreme Bench. TheH
general belief is that Hill has effected
combination against him and that
he will be defeated.
By a resolution the final adjournment
at 3 o'clock tomorrow adopted, by a
vote of 134 to 83.
In the house Wilson, chairman of the
ways and means committee, asked the
unanimous consent for the considera
tion of the resolution to permit the
committee to sit during adjournment,
era nie wnn tne reports any bills pro
viding, If filed, such bills and reports
bhall be mailed to eaoh member. Keed
objected, explaining that the minority
should have a fair and decent oppor
tunity to examine and prepare a mi
nority report on a bill of such import
ance as the tariff bill before its presen
tation. Mr. uatcinngs, rrom the com
mittee on rules, presented a special
ule for the consideration of Wilson's
resolution. Mr. Hoed said the resolu
tion w.ia unsatisfactory in character.
and unreasonable in its demands. It
would be unjust to the minority to
expect them to get together and in a
few days prepare a minority report on
the bill. Wilson said the resolution was
designed to give the country the bene
fit of the earliest possible Information
concerning the proposed legislation,
nnd Jo get the bill through all Its pre
liminary committee stages so that its
considjratlan would begin immediately
after the regular session convened.
mere was, he continued, no mvsterv
about th preparation of the tariff.
bill. He, himself, had invited every re
publican member of the committee, with
the possible exception of Reed, who
was absent, to come to the committee
oom anl see what was going on. Heed
espondod briefly, and then the vote
was taken. The republicans refused to
answer to their nnmes, and there was
no quorum, the yeas being ir7 and the
i ays 1.
Catehlngs at once entered a. motion
to reconsider the vote by which the
house agreed to adjourn on Friday.
Wilson, of West Virginia, moved a call
of the house with the intention to get
a quorum to pass the resolution. The
cull developed the presence of 2:4 mem
bers. At 3:15 the executive clerk an
nounced the- president's approval t
the repeal bill. The resolution was
ndopted, revoking leaves of absence
and . instructing the sergeant-at-arins
to arrest absentees.
For three hours the members waited
patiently for the appearance of the ab
bentees. At 7:40 Wilson moved to dis
pense with further proceedings under
a call. The vote resulted 9 to 150, and
upon the announcement Reed arose and
offered a compromise. He offered a
counter praposltlon to amend the reso
lution so as to permit the chairman
to tile the tariff bill with the under
standing that th'j report3 thereon shall
be filed not later than ten days. This
proposition vvnson aceepiea, proviaea
that the word "tariff before the bill
be changed to "rsven te." Sayers, from
tne committee on appropriations, pre
sented a conference report on the Ur
gency Deficiency bill, and asked the
house to Insist on its disagreement to
tho senate amendment to pay $21,000
to the senate employes for work done
during the1 recess of the 51st congress.
He explained that thl3 should have
come out of the contingent fund of
the senate and the last congress re
fused to pay it. The house by a vote
of 120 to 4 decided not to recede from
Its position. Then the house adjourned.
CLOSE OF THE CAMPAIGN.
The British Forces Destroy the Mat
abele Army With Q ilck- Firing GunH.
Cape Town, Nov. 2. A special des
patch to the Associated Press reports
that Loblngula king of the Matabeles
will probably surrender in a few days

On October 31 the Matabeles five thou
sand strong, made a furious attack on
th British from fovoral Hd at once.
Vhey showed admirable discipline and
the gratest bravery. The British re-
served their fire until the Matabeles
were at close range, and them opened
on them with Martini rifles and Max
im rapid Are guns. The Matabeles
tome on slowly for a time, but
could not withstand the fearful slaugh
ter. They finally broke and fled, leav
ing Ave hundred killed and wounded
on the field, and carrying with them
hundreds of other woundel, beside
those ablo to stagger away Into some
rttreat. Many of these have since died.
The British loss only two killed, and six

HIS PERSONAL EXPERIENCE.
Hon. James W. Husted, while serving
Lis sixth term as speaker of the Assem
bly of the state of New York, writes.
' "New York Assembly Chamlwr,
Albany, Jan. 10. 1890.
I desire once more to bear my testi
mony to the value of Alleock's Porous
Plasters. I have used them for twenty
live years past, and can conscientiously
commend them as the best exteri.ul
leincdv that I have known, ears ago
when 'thrown from a carriage and ser
iously Injured I gave them fl thor.
nigh trial. In a very short time the
pain that I was suffering disappeared,
and within a week I was entirely re
erelgn remedy, both for external find
fe- ing from a severe cough, which
threatened pulmonary difficulties, whir h
I wun recommended to go to Florida to
relieve, I determined to test the plas
ters again. I applied them to my chest
and between the shoulder blades, and
in less than a fortnight was entirely
cured. On still another occasion when
suffering from an attack of rheumatism
In the shoulder to such an extent that
I could scarcely raise my arm, I again
resorted to the plasters, and within a
very few days the rheumatism entlrelj
disappeared. My family as well ns
myself have found them to be a sov
eilegn remedy, both for external and
Internal troubles. I never had but one
kidney difficulty in my life, and tho
application of the plasters cured me
within a week. I desire, as I said be
fore, to bear my testimony In a public
way to their efficacy, and I know of no
better way to do It than by giving you
my personal experience.
