The senate had under discussion the Teller reso lution, providing that the govern ment pay the principal and interest of United States bonds In silver. By agreement the resolution and pend ing amendment arc to be voted on be fore adjournment today. The debate was devoid of sensational incidents and acrimonious colloquys. The house devoted another day to to the consideration cf the Indian appropriation bill, most of the time oeinir consumed, as on the two pre ceding days, in discussing extraneous subjects. By far the most interest ing feature of the day was a debate on the question of reducing the mail carrier service In large cities, owing to the failure of the senate to attach the estimated deficiency of $100,000 to the urgent deliciensy bill. Loud used strong words in his criti cism of the postofilce department olll clalsand promised some interesting disclosures later on. The motion to strike out the aDPropriotlon for the Carlisle Indian school was defeated after considerable debate by a vote of 2!) to 03. When President Dole, of Ilawall, arrived there was no military display, Deniooratic simplicity being observed, at Mr. Dole's request. Secretary Sherman, with Mrs Dole on his arm, escorted the party to their mums at the Arlington and then took official leave. Mr. Porter, prlyato secretary to President McKinley, accompanied by Colonel Bingham, was notified by telephone of the arrival and soon ap- V Which do you want The quality o a garment The purchase of either calls for judgment In selection the fabric must be noted, also the workmanship, as the style of does not indicate itslwearing qualities.

Later in the day President McKin ley made a formal call on Mr. Dole, which did not last over fifteen mln utes. President Dole returned tho visit of Prciideut McKinley. He drove to the White House in a magnificently appointed carriage, in company with Minister Hatch and Secretary Cridler. After a word of general conversation the two presidents retired to a couch in one corner of the room and spent about live minutes in consultation It was said that this talk was purely unofficial and personal. Then the paTty was escorted down stairs and re turned to the hotel. SENATE At the opening of the senate Hale, ofMaine,presented a report of the con ferees on the urgent deficiency appro priation bill and the report was agreed to. Upon the motion of Vest the senate took up the Teller resolution, The de bote was opened by Teller. "1 would do nothing," he said "that would bring about such a condition of affairs as would be disgraceful, what ever the opinion of the senator from Massachusetts (Hoar) may be of my opinions or convictions. The Massa chusetts senator tried to make It ap pear that my position was in the par alel of a dollar piece with a copper cents. This proposition I do not ad vance and do not think it wonld tind much support In this or any other leg islative body." The following is the text of tho amendment to the silver resolution offered by Senator Ledge: 'That all the bonds of the United States issued or authorized to be is sued under said acts of congress are payable, principal and interest, in gold coin or Its equivalent, and that any other payment without the con sent of the creditor would be in viola tion of the public faith and In deroga tion of his rights." Later in the day Senator Lodge gave notice of an amendment declar ing it to be the policy of the govern ment to pay bonds, principal and in terest, in the highest money of tho world, in gold or its equivalent In gold, whether that be silver or paper, The senate confirmed David M. Dunne, to be collector of internal leveiiue for the district of Oregon. Tho report of the majority of the senate committee on privileges and elections, in the Corbett case, was presented to the senate by Senator Cattery. The committee recommended that Corbett be not given a seat in the senate. The Oregon leglslarure. the report says, deliberately refused to perform any of the functions with which it was charged, one of the most import ant being the election of a successor to Senator Mitchell, and all preced ents are against the .seating of ap pointee, when a legislature has had an opportunity to elect. Senator Pettus concurred In the conclusion, but files a separate opin ion. He takes the position that the de cision in the Mantle case controls in this. Hoar presented the minority view, sustaining Corbett's claim to a seat.

New York, Jan. 27. A special to the Tribune from Newport News says: u. if. iiuntingtons train was trans ferred from tho station to tho ship yard last night. When Mr. Hunting ton was asked to state Ills intention regarding the proposition ho made to Secretary Long "tiering to build a drydock capable of rccciylng the largest ship afloat, lie said: xoucansay tnat i win shortly build the largest and best drydock in American waters In a basin in which any ship in the United States or Eng lish merchant marine can be safely docked and overhauled. This dock will be built at one corner of the shin- yard. There is urgent need of a dry dock In which the vessels of, the navy can be repaired at short notice, and It is such a basin that I propose to build." "What about the reported Arm strong deal, looking to the purch of the shipyard?" "Sir William Armstrong neyer had an option on this plant. It la true, however, that I did see him and of fered to sell him an interest In the shipyard. I offered to sell Sir Wil liam Armstrong half the stock, or if he wanted to have the controllntr In terest, 05 percent. This 1 say was in the interest of the yard. I would not think of selling that much of the stock if I did not have some other business toengage my attention. "I cannot state positively whether or not an ordinance factory will be located here. I have not abandoned the Idea, however. While Mr. Huntington declined to make any statement In the matter, the impression prevails that his ylsit in company with the vice-president of the Pacific Mall company is in respect to awarding In contract for a new passeDger ship for the Pacific Mall. The party will remain here two or three days. Mr. Huntington will leave in his private car at the shipyards. Remarkable Address Delivered by Republican Governor of Michigan. the War Not Ended. San Fkancisco, Jan. 27. Advices from the Orient bring to hand the full text of tho edict recently iasued by Fernando Primo de Rivera, governor-general of the Philippine is lands, reference to which has been made through official circles at Ma drid. , The edict fs so severe ih Its treat ment of all enemies of the imperial governor that the manifestoesof Wey- ier seem mild in comparison. Taken as a whole It appears as an official confession of the frequent announce ments from the government at Ma drid that the Philippine; insurrection has been suppressed and the people pacified. The edict begins with the revoca tion of all passes heretofore issued and the cstabllsnment of a military trocha. Property belonging to per sons connected with the rebellion or to tenants, partners, or any person interested In property belonging to the rebels is declared forfeited to the government and will bo seized to sat isfy the needs of the Spanish army. The families of individuals who are incorporated In the rebel party must go to join them or fix tiieir residence under the watchfullness of the au thorities. For the purposes of this order the families of rebels will consist of the wives, children, parents, brothers, brothers-in-law and cousins Suicide of a Phsician. Newton, Kan., Jan. 27. Dr. W. C.

Frank Ford, just down from Skaguay, says that Just before he left two men came In in a small sioop witli over 85000 In gold dust. Where they got It, they would not say. They expressed a package to New Ycrk, and, laying in a stock of provisions, left port the next day, heading to the north. The men gave the names of Philips and Carpenter As several men haye brought gold In recently from some near-by Islands, considerable curiosity was excited, and it Is likely some boat will follow them, Gained Their Point.

Amonge other minus ne saia: "It is tho misfortune of great par ties whep long in power that to It flock for mercenary and selfish mo tives all those who desire to enrich themselves by legislation which the party can giye them. "Soto the Republican party thcro have flocked during the past few years many birds of ill omen, undesirable tenants, who are making the house so roui mat they are driving out tho rignirui owners. "Mr. Cleveland disputed his party In doing the bidding of a money syn dicate which made enormous profits out of a scandalous bond deal. "Today all the trusts, all the mo nopolies, every agency which Is bleed ing the country, has taken refuge under the wing of the Republican party because they fear tho Demo cratic party, which has kicked them out. "King Boodle cries, I am the party, and tlieni Is none besides me I "It is noticeable that every rascal is always an extreme partisan and 'hollars' patriotism and party loyalty so that you cannot hit him without breaking plate-glass. Gov. Pingree was understood to re fer to Senator Hanna when he said: "Tho monopolist, the franchise grabber, the lobbyist and the political apostles of boodle arc all extreme par tisans, and when any one exposes their schemes or obstructs their am bitions, tlioy wrap themselves In tho Hag and cry, 'You aro attacking the party 1' When they elect themselves to office by the main forco of money they ascribe it to tho divine interven tion of Providence in behalf of the nation and its lienor. Tho governor was severe on trusts. "Many of us lifelong Republicans," he said, "who do not train with the money power are heartily sick of be ing obliged to condone and defend the trusts which have come to board with us indefinitely. "A penny on.sugar passes unnoticed but means $40,000,000 a year out of the pockets of the people. Why make a fuss about 2 cents on oil, it amounts to so little ? But it means over 800, 000,000 to you, and so it goes all along the line a form of taxation which taps the pockets of the producer In such a manner that he docs not know what keeps him poor. "The masses of tho Republican party do not want to stand sponsor for those agencies which are playing tho mischief with this country's wel fare anytmore than the Democrats do. "A party which does not rid Itself of men who make themselves prom inent in it with the sole purpose of THEY WERE SNOW-BALLING. A Fight Ensued In Which a Pocket-Knife Was Used, Asa result of an innocent snow- balling contest, Wednesday afternoon, Joe Woowdard, Jr., the 13-year-old son of Joe Woodward, a farmer resid ing on Kaiser's uottora, north of this city, Is under arrest, charged with As sault with a dansrerous weapon, the complaining witness being Ernest uuwiand, a youth aged 17 years. Wood ward was taken bcfnro Jus tice Johnson this afternoon and ills' examination on the clmrirfi wns sot. fnr Saturday at 10 a. m. The youth against whom tho charge has been preferred,- was seen at the sheriff's office this afternoon by a JOUKNAL Writer, to wham hn rrlntrt his iccoi'ntof the affair which In stih- stance is as rollews: The boys have been attending the ivaiser B ttom school and during tho noon hour Wednesday Joined a num ber or their assjdates and partici pated in a snow tight. Temporary forts were con-trutctcd against cacli of which the opposing faction would make a united effort to cap ture. Woodwurd and Rowland be longed to tho same side but Wmir III virl l.l 1 I "v.iiauu ucnij! uy iour years the senior of Woodward, abused and enraged Woodward by snowbal ing him. Having in vain requested his colleague to desist, Woodward joined the opposing army and the battle was resumed. Presently Row land's followers madej an attack on the enemy's fort. Woodward sought shelter behind a post and approached by Rowland requested him not to throw any snowballs at him. But in stead of comulvlntr with tho re quest, ho (Rowland) began to renew his attack on Woodward whom ho hnocKCd down and very cruelly pelted with hard snow balls. Woodward was considerably stunned by the blows but soon regained his feet and took from ills pocket a Jaeknlfe which he opened. When asked If ho 9truck his assailant, Woodward replied lie did notknow but thought Rowland who attempted to kick him ran into the knife which penetrated his left arm.

"I have at times seriously thought that the enactment of a law forbid ding any church or institution to ac cept bequests or gifts from men of great wealth and making them keep all they have would tend to make men less greedy. "Government for bondholders is becoming quito common in the world nations gone into the hands of a receiver. "AH that the poor, miserable labor ers In the Nile Valley and their chil dren for three generations can earn is to he paid oyer to British bondholders and the government of Egypt gets its orders from Lombard street. "Greece Is moitgaged, and was not permitted to light for its interests by those who held Grecian bonds. "In India, in Turkey, in Spain, the Influence of the coupon Is paramount, tho welfare of the people a secondary consideration "You perhaps remember how before the war many of the clergy argued for numan slavery as a oiyine institution, and told what a great advantage it was -for the poor negro to bo rescued from Ills African surroundings and brought here to this Christian land under the benign Influences of the gospel. "The question Is today, Do half fares on railroads and contributions to bliurchcs and institutions influence the clergy to deal gently with great wrongs? "Franchises, grants and special privileges are obtained by main forco of money, and the money wrongfully obtained in legally swindling tho peo- Ele out of their own is then used to rlbo their servants. "Money is taken each year out of the pockets of tho producers and goes to swell the corruption fund of tho privileged few, more than enough to keep In comfort and happiness every struggling poor family In the land. "I am one of thoso Republicans who believe this should not bo pos sible, and trust that tho Republican party, nationally and In those states where it is In power, will do some legislating to stop this."
