Washington, Feb. 15.— McKinley has
determined to let financial reform wait
upon a tariff revision. All he will ex­
pect of the extra session of congress in
the way of legislation is that it shall
speedily pass a new tariff bill. He
wants it to put the machinery in mo­
tion for currency legislation at a later
date, however, by making provision
for a joint commission of senators and
representatives and report at the regu­
lar session of congress.
A man recently in Canton said h»
talkml at length with McKinley about
the extra sa-ssion, and he found the
president-elect hail determined to oon-
fine his message at the opening of that
session practically to the tariff and cur­
rency. He will urge the speedy pas­
sage of a tariff bill for the double pro­
tecting purpose of American interest»
and filling the treasury.
The informant said he understood
McKinley would make no specific rec­
ommendations as to the policy whioh
ought to be pursued in reforming the
monetary system of the country, but
would refer in general terms to the ne­
cessity of doing something, and advise
congress to create a joint commission
to sit during tlie recess and prepare a
comprehensive scheme to b » reported
next December.

Washington, Feb. 15.—The execu­
tive session of tlie senate opened today
with u notice by Senator Blackburn
tiiat lie probably would move a post­
ponement of further consideration of
the Anglo-American treaty until the
next session. He said in explanation
that he thought there should be an
eurly understanding on this point in
view of the fact that the present ses­
sion is rapidly drawing to a close, but
did not wisli to take tho responsibility
for such a motion until there oould be
a somewhat general expression as to its
advisability.
Hoar followed in a speech favoring
the treaty. Stewart opposed it on gen­
eral grounds, especially that the United
States should not treat with Great
Britain. *

Washington, Feb. 15.—The house
today resumed consideration of the
poatofflee appropriation bill immediate­
ly after the reading of tlie journal. It
was arranged tiiat tlie general debate
should close in one hour.
Bromwell, Republican, of Ohio, re-
sumeil liis argument against the appro­
priation of $196,000 for specinl mail
facilities from Boston to New Orleans.
Replying to Swanson’ s remarks yester­
day, he declared it was absnrd to say
that the Southern railroad carried
more mail than any other trunk line
in the country. There were, he said,
twenty-five trunk lines, which carried
more mail than the Southern.
After further debates, in which the
old arguments on tho Southern fast
mail item were restated, tho bill was
taken up for amendment, and amend­
ments were uilopted reducing tho ap­
propriation for free delivery in the
new offices from $140,000 to $90,000,
while the appropriation for experi­
mental rural free delivery was increased
from $50,000 to $100,000.

Rt. Louis, Feb. 15.— Benjamin Bra-
zclle, a scientist and inventor, well
known Htnong men of his class, claims
to have discovered the key to electric­
ity and the transmutation of clay into
gold, silver and iron, ami to have per­
fected his discovery to an extent that
will revolutionize tlie science of chem­
istry.
His demonstrations have been so
satisfactory as to enlist the incorpora­
tion of a company by a number of cap­
italists to put them into practical
effect.
The company has already
started its plant at Fairlawn, in Ht.
Louis county. It will soon be com­
pleted ami ready, its projectors nssert,
to turn out aluminum, gold, silver,
iron and many other metals not known
to science, all manufactured from com­
mon clay.
By actual test, it is stated, Mr. Bra-
zelle changed silver to gold and gold
into silver.
Tlie transmutation, he
says, is an insignificant part of the dis­
coveries he lias made— a mere nothing
in comparison with tlie changing of
slay into gold, silver, iron, calcium,
aluminnm, glacium and fifteen other
metals not known to science and whose
qualities have not yet been determined
by the discoverer.
