held from the polls, to afford pretext
for the exclusion, by the board of that
state, of votes cast in these precincts for
electors of president and Tice-president;
and James E. Anderson. supervisor OF
registration of East Feliciani, and D. A
| Weber, supervisor of registration in a
parish of West Feliciana, state, that in
furtherance of the conspiracy, they
falsely protested, that tie election in
such precincts had been fair and free,
and that the state returning board there
upon falsely and fraudulently excluded
votes of said precincts, and by means
thereof, and of other false and fraudu-
lent action by said returning board, the
choice of the people Of the state was
annulled and reversed, and that such ac-
ton Of said Weber and Anderson was
induced or encouraged by assurances
OF John Sherman, secretary of the treas
ury of the United States; and,
WHEREAS, The gravity ofthese charges
and the nature of the evidence upon
which they are reported to be based,
and the official dignity and position of
the persons named in connection with
said frauds, make it proper that the
same should be investigated to the end
that the honor of the nation may be
vindicated and the truth as to such
election made known.
Therefore, be it resohed, That a select
committee, consisting of eleven MEM
bers of this house, be appointed to en-
quire into the aforesaid allegations as
to the conduct of persons in office as
aforesaid, in respect to said elections,
and into the alleged false and fraudulent
canvass and return of votes by states to
the parish and precinct officers in said
states of Louisiana and Florida, and in
to all of these acts which, in the iudg-
ment of said committee, are connected
with or pertinent thereto. and that the
said committee, for the purpose of ex-
ecuting this resolution, shall have power
to send for such persons and papers, to
administer oaths, and to take testim ony,
and in their discretion to detail the sub
committees with the lawful authority
of said committee in every particular,
and with power to sit in Florida and
Louisiana; which subcommittee shall
be committees of this house, and the
chairman thereof shall be authorized to
administer oaths. Said committee and
subcommittee may employ stem
ographers, and be attended each by
deputy sergeant-atarms, and may sit
during the sessions of the house Or DUR
ing vacation; and that said committee
proceed with such inquiry and have
leave to report at any time.
By vote of 128 yeas to 10S nays, the
appeal which was taken by Mr. Conger
was laid on the table. The vote was a
party one, with the exception of Mitch
ell, Butler Mass and Ford, who voted
With ytlt the the DEMOCRATS, and Mills and
cans.

THE financial condition of Mexico is
not so bad after ALL The secretary of
the treasury reports the revenues for
the current year at S16,000,000, while
the expenses will be nearly So, 900, 900,
showing a deficit of about Sc, 100000, at
which the opposition journals growl
savagely. 1t is true that about the
same deficit appeared annually during
the life of the previous Administrations
but the opposition newspapers observed
that Diaz promised great reforms, and
they think his pledge has been broken.
The debt of Mexico is nearly $500,000,-
600, but the most of it has been repudi-
ated or outlawed, and now interest is
paid on only about $35, 100000, so the
financial responsibility of the govern
ment is very small Perpaps if Mexico
had q heavy national debt it would
tend to unity the people and insure
stable government; but most Mexicans
think their plan of frequent revolutions
Is the best and cheapest, because every
new administration repudiates the debts
incurred by its predecessor, and prac-
tices economy for while.

IT was thought at one time that the
river and harbor bill would meeG with
formidable opposition in the senate but
it appears from the latest advices from
the capital that it will not be changed
materially or opposed very bitterly.
The senate committee on commerce
had its first meeting on the bill on
Saturday the 11th inst. The original
intention of this committee was to elm
mate the appropriations for unimpor-
tant river Improvements agreed to by
the house and increase the appropri-
ations for important inland and harbor
improvements. 1t was expected that
the committee would lop off at least
$1,000 from the bill. 1t appears,
however. that the pressure from MEM
bers of the house to have appropri-
ations for the benefit of individual dis
tricts retained has been too great for q
majority of the committee to resist and
it is improbable that the amount APP
propriated by the house will be lessened
by the senate committee. 1t is expect
ed that the appropriation for the inn
provement of the Mississippi and Ohio
rivers will be increased. These are the
only important changes likely to be
made. Several senators with economic
proclivities will probably support the
bill because they believe that the gov
srnment in a time of distress should give
the people work

THE army bill is made up, and will
oon be reported to tie house. The
strength of the army is reduced from
twenty-five thousand men to twenty
thousand. The president is authorized
to constitute board to consist of three
major generals of the army who will
examine into and report upon the or
ganization of the different branches of
the army, and make their report to the
president by the first day of December
next, which report will be submitted to
congress, after which no new appoint
ments or nominations shall be made in
any department of the military service
until authorized by law. The method
of appointing non-commissioned officers
is to be rigorous, and contemplates Il
board of five officers of high rank to be
appointed annually by department
commanders to consider the recon-
mendation of regimental commanders.
No officer shall be detailed for staff du-
ty who shall not have served at least
five years in the line of the army, and
no detail shall be for longer term
than four years. Officers who shall
have served for forty-five years as such,
shall be placed upon the retired list. A
feature of the bill which will attract at
tention is the section which provides
that women shall not be allowed to ac-
company troops as laundresses, the
only exception being cases where a
soldiers wife performs that function
The bill proposes to reduce the pay
of the general of the army from S17, ,7OC
to $14,950, the lieutenant general from
$13, ,226 to SS,69S, major generals from
$9,944 to $S,444, brigader' generals
from 81, 800 to s6,350, and colonies
from $6,175 to $3.50 No officer tC
have any other allowance. The oil
may pass the house in this shape, bu
that is doubtful, and it is certain tha
the senate will not pass any bill reduc
ing the pay of these officers or reducing
the effective strength of the regular
army.
