THE sUB.TREAsURY BILL
WHAT Is 1T?

The following speech made by Mr..
Smith, of Indiana, upon the final pas
sage of the sub Treasury Bill in the
Senate, will give a complete idea Of what
that measure is:
The final vote is about to be taken
In few minutes the bill will pass, and
leave this body. do not rise to make
u speech on the bill. view il merely
as a portion of the machinery ofthe Ad-
ministra alton by which it proposes to car
ry oul its financial policy. | no longer
war against the machine f: il is useless
hero. Ii is against the policy that de-
sire to say IA single word. The policy OF
the Administration has heretofore been
too equivocal to be understood but,
thanks 10 the Senators who have support
ed this bill, they have torn the mask from
this measure. Ii is openly avowed aud
maintained here, that the policy Of The Ad-
minishaiion is 10 crush he banks-io
drive oM Of circulation paper money-to
annihiiaie credii-io reduce The circula-
tim 10 coin, or specie 10 diminish the ral-
ue Of real and personal estate al least one
hay--to affect The price Of produce and Of
free labor in a like proporiion-io arrest
all further Stale and individual enterprise
and improvements.
There can, therefore, no longer he
any doubt in this matter. Let the States
and individuals who have entered into

ted to pay in II like currency, no longer
rely on that delusivc hope. The ENTER

may prepare to wind up their concerns

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT NEW
ST. LOUIS EXCHANGE
BURNED-LOSS OF LIFE

The New Orleans papers received by the
Southern mails since Saturday, bring us the
intel elligencc off great destruction Of property
by the burning Of the magnificent 81. Louis
Exchange Of that city.
From the New Orleans Daily Times, Feb. H.
Al half past two o'clock, yesterday, the
cry Of fire was heard IN our streets, which
proved to be in that magnificent pile the ST.
Louis Exchsnge-thep pride of our city, as il
was the triumph Of architecture. The flames
caught in ono Of the attic rooms immediately
under the roof, at The Northern corner on
Royal street, running along the partition
wall almost to CEartres street. II was long
time ere the flames could be discovered, SO
stealthiy did they circulate under The caves,
and at that immense height nothing like ef-
fectual assistance could be bestowed.
1t were needless to attempt a description
Of how the fire progressed. or the confusion
which ensued among the numerous inmates
Of this proud and spacious structure. Floor
after floor, and staircase after staircase fell
some crushing those that were beneath at
work, some cutting of the retreat Of others
The passages-many Of them. were dark and
labyrnthine even in the day .time-how much
mors so at night and amid tho terror Of sur.
rounding danger. 1t is enough to say thnt
the entire Exchange is burned nothing bu,
the walls are standing; the inside, with all It's
costly decorations, being ridded entirely. II
is supposed that soma sixteen lives have
been lost-some by burning, others by the
sudden sinking Of the different aoors.
Very little of value was saved. All the
plans in the rotunda-some very valuable
paintings and statuary, fell victims. The
magnificent furniture, tables, ottonans, sofas
entablsturcs, damask curtains, and all the
means aud appliances" Of luxurious life are
destroyed. The ballroom, with its gorgeou:
paintings and its superb chandeliers, Is q
blnckened mass Of ruins.
| This Exchange was built by the Improve
Incnt Bank, at q cost Of about 5000 900, OK
elusive of the grouud and the fnrniiurs-tlis
latter of which probably cost $500, 900 more
II was commenced some time in August
! e:}5, and was completed in the early part o
1893. The architecture was very fne an'
after the plan Of Mcssrs. Depouilly. which
obtained the preference o.er eight Others
submitted.
The loss is estimated at between six hun
dred and eight hundred thousand dollars, o
which S25O,0O0 only are covered by in
surance.
A meeting Of citizens was held on th'
evening succeeding the fire, at which reso
lutions were passed to open subscriptions 70
the purpose of rebuilding the exchange
One OF the papers states that $350,000 wer'
subscribed in four hours.

THE NEW JERSEY QUESTION.

Some uneasiness exists in the public
mind relative to the delay in deciding
tho merits ofthe New Jersey question
in Congress. ltappcars, however that
the blame does not properly attach to
the committee on elections. After the
net Of Injustice on the part ofthe House
had been pcrpctrated, this committee is
in duty bound to give the subject their
impartial attention, and to do this, delay
was necessary. They have concluded
TO send back the claimants TO look up
testimony to sustain their pretensions,
and it will be hardly possible that this
can be done before the early part Of
April.
The committee after hearing the evi-
dencc on both sides, have come to the
decision that the commission Of the Go
vernon of New Jersey was valid, both
in form and substance, and was pyima
fac;c evidence of tho right TO seats OF
those holding it.
They have also decided that the GER
tificate of Secretary Wcstcott was of no
more value than "column Of a news
paper" and that, too, after an argu-
insnt in which Mcssrs. Vroom and Dick
erson brought forth the Secretary g
special message, recounting his forty
years services and labors, to back his
commissions.
"It has been decided, says the State
Gazette, "by an impartial tribunal, that
the commission Of the Governor has
been denied its proper authority. |,
is decided that New jersey is excluded
from Congress wrongiully, lawlcssly.
Yet the House Of Representative.
persists in the wrong; and the State
remains still the victim Of an act adju
dica,cd to be violation Of the Consti
tuition"
The stand which the State Of ViIgini;
has taken in behalf Of her injured sister
is ut the present moment truly crafty
ing. From present appearances, th'
voice Of Virginia will be heard in {
voice Of thunder. Many Of the Admin
istration men declare they will not g,
with their party in DISTINGUISHING sove
reign State. We hope the old Ba,
State will not be behind hand in thi
mattcr.-Bosion Alias.
