LONDON, Jan. 13.-Mr. Gladstone, in
reply to a delegation of members #
the house, declared that to give a
specific form to the existing evils
was the first step in dealing with the
land question. Remedial measures
must come after. It was explained
by the o. deputation that Sc liberals
shared their views, and many Eng
lish and Scotch members expressed
sympathy Herewith. The members
of the deputation dwelt on the me-
cessity for the adoption Of their pro-
gramme. They said if such meas
ures were passed the tenants gen
orally would be satisfied and the
agitation would subside. They in
sisted that general feeling of in
security prevailed among the ten
ants under the existing state of
things, and that great majority
of the landlords would accept their
programme. Gladstone replied that
the great object of the government
was to promote the welfare of the
tenants without inficting injustice
on any other section of the public.

SENATE.
WASHINGTON. Jan.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.
MIR. Eaton, from the committee on
foreign affairs, reported adversely
sundry bills, relative to the Japan-
ese indemnity fund, and favorably
as substitutes therefor, two new bills.
Mr., Withers, of Virginia, intro
duced a bill authorizing the United
States Commercial company, of Vir-
ginia, to do business in foreign coun.
tries.
Mr.. Davis of Illinois, Introduced
bill relative to an increase in the
pay of letter carriers in large cities.
Referred.
The resolution for the extension of

and representatives was then taken
up, and after some discussion, was,
on motion of Mr.. Davis of West
Virginia, referred, by a vote of % to
%, to the committee on postofices
and post roads.
At the expiration of the morning
hour the senate resumed considera-
ton of the army appropriation bill,
and devoted most of the afternoon
to the discussion of the clause rela-
ting to the payment for government
transportation on land grant rail
roads.
Mr.. Edmunds offered the follow
ing amendment, which was adopted
by vote of % to Is: For the pay
ment for army transportation lawful>
ly due such land grant railroads a
have not received aid in government
bonds, to be adjusted by the proper
accounting officers, in accordance
with the decisions of the supreme
court, in cases decided under the
land grant acts, but In no case shall
more than so per cent. of the full
amount of the service be paid, until
final judicial decision shall be had
in respect to each case in dispute.
Mr.. Edmunds suggested that the
amendment reported from the senate
committee appending the proviso
that, "such payment shall be ac-
cepted as in full of all demands for
said service" being apparently su-
perfuous, be stricken out. Agreed

SERIOUS DAMAGE TO COTTON
--,-..... AND RICE. --.l

CHARLESTON, S. G., Jan. 13.-The
News and Courier publishes sum-
mary of reports received from all
sections of the state, showing great
damage to the cotton and rice crops
from the protracted wet weather. II
estimates that of cotton unpicked in
December fully one-half has been
totally lost, while the remainder has
been damaged in quality. In the
sea islands the crop is rotting in
the fields. The, rice harvest, owing
mainly to rainy weather, is one Of
the most unfortunate on record.

A WASHINGTON correspondent to
the New York Tribune says: "Gen-
eral Chalmers thinks there will be no
attempt by the democrats of the sen-
ate to oust Kellogg. Il do not see how
they can do it, said he, after the
virtual pledges they have given him
to let him alone. Even if those sena-
tors who thus have pledged them elves
not to modest him should refuse to
vote, it is doubtful if Kellogg could be
unseated; but such course of action
on their part would be cowardly and
unworthy of them.'n

THE BLACK LIST.
Why the Democrats Adjourn
when the Report Of the Post
master General is Brought

Special to the Louisville Commercial.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.-There is
dynamite in the postmaster general s
report upon unlawful exercise OF the
franking privilege by the members of
the democratic congressional COM
mittee, and the democrats do wisely
to adjourn whenever the reading of
this report is suggested. The names
of many Of them are said to be men
toned in it, and their unlawful acts
are described with heartless circum-
stantiality. Among the list of names
mentioned, as in some sense parti-
ceps criminis, are the Hons. J. w.
Ryan, n. Muller, P. Dunn, Waldo
Hutchins, w. Call, J. S. G. Black
burn, Hester Clymer, r. B. Vance,
Phil. Cook, Van FL. Manning, r. L.
Taylor, J. r. Chalmers, S. S. Cox.
Mr.. Cox already declared that he is
not guilty. If this is proven, it will
serve to convict some members of
the democratic committee not only
of attempted fraud upon the post
Office department, but of the graver
crime of forging Mr.. Coxs name
upon the envelope, by means of
which fraud was to be committed.
The grave statements made in the
report are sustained by numerous
formal afidavits, and no less than
three of them being signed and
sworn to by employees of the demo-
cratic congressional committee, set
ting forth the fact that defrauding
the government by knowingly frank
ing unfrankable matter was a regular
practice of the committee, and had
the sanction of those in authority.
For three days in succession,
when this report was reached, the
house of representatives, upon the
motion of some conscience stricken
democrat, has made haste to adjourn.
To-day, when the committee of the
whole rose, Mr.. Coffroth jumped
upon his feet and moved an adjourn
ment before the chairman had made
his report to the house, Let the
democrats beware,
