IzIE BONDED BILL.
The House Measure Referred to
Bessrs. Beck and sherman TO
Report 90 the Senate.
Special to the oOurisr-JOurnal.l

Special to the Courier-JOurnal.l
WASHINGTON, April S.-Dispatches
continue to come from interested par.
ties asking when the extension bill
will pass. The nominations before
the committee may occupy the time Of
that COMMITTEES at It's meeting on
Tuesday. but the understanding is
that if the time was so taken the bill
will be given int the hands Of Sen
stors Beck and Sherman, with in
struotiOns to report without again
calling the committee together. This
insures the bill to a great extent
against delay. When this meas
ure is fairly out Of the way,
there will be a renewed effort on
the part of the original NOV
ers to reduce the tax on Thisky
from ninety to fifty cents per gallon.
Mr.. Kelley, Chairman of the Commit
tee on Ways and Means, would still
like to see this done, northumberland
ing his acquiescence in the will OF the
majority AT the Republican caucus
which killed the original bill. There
is not much encouragement to believe
that there will be reduction. To
put the measure in with the bill to
abolish the tax on bank deposits
would not hide it from its enemies,
and there is no evidence of any marked
change of feeling on the subject since
the caucus. 0fcourss it is possible
for some favorable development after
the eff rts are renewed, and it
is evident that the Illinois and
Ohio men, ss we'll as some from Ken
lucky, still think it may be- done. The
agitation and doubt do not seem 10
deter capital, judging from the fact
that Yesterday the hond was approved
of.the largest dtstillery in the world,
to b. located at DesMoines, Iowa, by
the international Distillery Company
1t will have capacity fer turning out
$1,000 gallons a day. for which a.
0OO bushels of corn would be con-
sumed, and from which tax of S50,-
400 would be collected every day. To
watch this, SIX storekeepers would be
required; the product would be most
ly spirits, so of course the projectors
will be fully in accord with those
who will work for reduction.

The Jeannette's Drift in the
Pack.

Pack.
NY. Herald
The synopsis Of the Jeannette's
eventful voyage given by Chief En-
gineer Melville, which we printed on
Thursday. presents some new and
notable facts in connection with the
vessels dreary drift. Caught fast in
the massive ice of Herald Island on
September 6, 1879, the Jeanette was
borne steadily on to the northwest for
more than ten weeks, when, on No
vember ., latter several days severe
crushing Of the ice and nipping Of
the ship, she was forced into open
water" This result only tantalized
the hopes of her crew, for the vessel
the same day became frozen to
solid foe, from which she was
never released until she went down
on the morning. Of June IL, 1881. The
comparatively low latitude in which
she encountered the impenetrable
pack near Herald Island, the direction

the tremendous strains to which the
vessel was exposed, all 90 to prove that
the future .Arcti9 explorer will ever

ice streams Of the Polar Sea. as they
move from higher 10 lower ATTITUDES,

Of ever thiekening ice the
great frozen field that enclosed the
ship must have been constantly under

nearer together. 1t would appear
highly probable from the persistent

cannot be explained by the setion Of
the changug Arctic wihds) that north
