Special to the Globe.
CHICAGO, Feb. GA prominent rail-
way official, who is in a position
to know, informs your correspond
ent that the Pennsylvania is relaxing Its ef-
forts to secure emigrants on the 81 rate from
New York to Chicago. The reasons given
for this opinion are that the Chicago Office of
the Pennsylvania which has the manage
ment Of the company's emigrant business in
the West and Northwest, is now furnishing
their emigraut booking agents the west-bound
emigraut orders in very limited numbers,
and even refusing to supply the orders to
such agents as have not been very stauuch
supporters of the Pennsylvania in the past
In fact the Pennsylvania's agent is said to
have refused to furnish certain agents ON the
ground that he has not time to send out the
orders, but in reality because the company
uses the present opportunity to discriminate
in favor of their favorite booking agent, CIV
ing them liberal supplies OF their emigrant
orders. This would seem to indicate that
the PENNSYLVANIA was about filed with 81
emigrants and they probably have loo, 600 in
s.gnt, or rather booked.

THE CLOSING WEEK
OF the American Congress Promises to be
an Eventful One.

an EVentful One.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-The closing week
of congress bodies fair to be the most event
full. The influence Of President-elect Cleve-
land has been sufficient, by the close
shave of eight to seven, to induce the apprO-
priation committee Of the house to insert
clause in the sundry civil appropriation
bill authorizing the president to suspend
the coinage OF silver dollars for one
year on and after July next. Anticipating
that there will be sturdy resistance to the
clause the appropriations com muittee, with con
siderable foresight, vii! first ask the house TO
pass the bill with the anti-silver clause omit
ted and then take action on the silver
amendment. This feeling has been adopted
TO ward off an extra session. The sundry
civil bill is last Of the supply Of bills
to pass the house. If it should
hang fire an extra session would be
unavoidable. Fearing to risk the passage of
the bill under a suspension of the rules with
the anti-silver clause in, 1T is first proposed to
pass the bill and then tackle the silver ques
tiun. Should the house indOrse the commit
tee, the senate can readily attach the section
to the bill. II is an open question as vet
whether or not the house will agree TO place
such q sweeping power in the presidents
hands. There will be two grounds Of opposition
The most formidable will be from those who
represent the Democratic and western con-
stituencies, and who believe In a double
standard. Then again there Is class who,
while IN favor Of the suspension Of coinage,
are not IN favor Of handing oTer to the pres
ident such an unreserved power. Tney be-
lieve in taking the bull by the horns and re-
pealing in toto the mandatory clause of
the bill, creating the standIrI
silver dollar, which comPels fixed annuity
of coinage. They want it done, however, By
legislation and not in the discretion OF
the president II the opponents Of the
lismentary advantage they can exercise
under the rules of the house, there eau be no
legislation on the subject. They will have 1t in
their power to fIbuster until the end of
the session If need be. This they
threaten to do. 1t Is an
open secret that over one hundred
Democratic members have their names On a
petition already forwarded to Mr.. Cleveland,
beseeching him not to commit himself on
the silver question ia his Inaugural. The
forwarding Of such paper it must be ad-
mitted was rather a cheeky performance, but
nevertheless it Was in the nature Of a hint
that the Democratic portion Of the house of
r,presentativ,s woali split up if radical
steps ar, taken to inyeiyh against silver.

ALBASY, Y. Y, Feb. 22.-It may be start

fact that Grover Cleveland IS engaged to be
n married at an earis day. Hls sfianced is i

Wells college, in Aurora. y. I. She Is

Villas are booked, but Just which is
which has not been fully decided upon. The
president recognizes the appropriateness Of
giving the seeretaryship of the interior to
Col Villas, but there is a strong
pressure brought to bear upon
him to give the South three
positions in the cabinet, and he hesitates
about placing southern man in the navy
department in view Of the criticism it might
occasion Still, the chances are be will be

and the critics do their best or worst. 1t was
really Gov. Clevelaud's intention to give
William c. Whitney OF this city place in the
cabinet, but the pressure in behalf Of Col.
Valas and also from the south for three
places seems to have crowded Whitney off
from the slate, though there is just possi-
bility he may be given the navy department t
instead of Lamar. 1t can, however, be set
down that Col. Villas will De in the cabinet,
with the chances largely in favor of the in
terror aud just bare chance of it being the
navy instead. Bear in mind that this is a

An Opinion from Dubuque.

j. L. Platt of Dubuque was iu the city Sat
urday looking into the lumber business of
the Northwest. Mr. Pratt is an old railroad
man, having held several responsible posi-
tions on Southern railroads, and in railroad
matters his opinion is generally acceptable.
In regard to the Chicago, Freeport & St.
Paul railroad, he thinks it is an enterprise
that win not pay. 1t is his opinion that two
new roads running parallel, meaning the
Alma d Northern and the Freeport road,
would find it extremely hard to find snffi-
cient business to support them both. It Is
his idea that if the Freeport 6 St. Paul would
build from Chicago to Freeport and from
there to Dubuque, and connect there with
the Winona, Alma & Northern line, the
thing might possibly work.

PORTLAND, Or, Feb. %. The failure Of
the legislature to elect senator continues
10 be the all absorbing topic of conversation
to-day, and the question as to whether the
government can appoint is being discussed
in all its phases. Section 10, article 5, Of
tue constitution of Oregon, reads: when,
during recess of the legislative assembly,
a vacancy shall happen in any Office, the
appointment ol which is Vested in
the legislative assembly, or when at
any time vacancy shall have occurred in
any other state office or in the Office Of jud re
Of any court, the governor shall fill such
vacancy by appointment, which shall expire
when successor shall have been elected and
qua.ihed.' Under this, the Republicans
claim that q senator may be appointed. 1t
is contended, on the other hand, by the
Democrats, that the expiration Of regu-
lar term of the legislative assembly
is not such vacancy as the governor is au-
thorized to I'LL by appointment and that the
legislature: having failed to elect, tine state
must suffer the consequences of such neg
lect and be deprived Of suffrage in the SEN
ate. There is scarcely doubt that the gov
ernor will appoint, and the senate must de
eide whether such appointee snail take his
