Afghanistsn Being Rapidly Developed.
LONDON, Feb. l5-The Daily Telegraph
and other newspapers throughout England
are still harping on the alleged Russian ag-
gression in Central ASIA, and their articles
published from day to day would probably
raise great scare throughout Great Britain
il public opinion was not wholly engrossed
with the SOn6an affair. The latest report
published is to the effect that the Govern

the fact that Russian troops are Tithin forty

and that the seizure Of Herat by
the Russians is possible at any moment

There is no doubt that If the Tories were in
power, with such a man as DisIaeli for Pre-

territory would be considered tantamount to
a declaration OF war. Bullying dispatches
would have been sent long ago from London
to st. Petersburg. But" as one OF the ed

excuse which will satisfy himself

and il will have very depressing effect on

"rhat has been the greatest question in

division in the House between So and 81

jority wanted to allow 81 month, but il
the matter were to come to a climax to-day

invalid pensions will, of course, be graded
the same as now."
Would there not be some Southerners
who would vote against law of this kind?'

You see it is very particular matter with
the agents."
Would it iniure your business"
''Very much-at least for a time. You
see, ii would clear out all those old cases and
would open up new books. A certificate of
discharge, honorably, or muster-out, would
be sufficient to make good claim under the
proposed law, and, of course, agents would
not be needed, but we woulo sill have work
in securing increases and working out cases
of dependence for widows, parents and
children. If this proposition would come
up now I think seven. .eighths of the Sens-
tors and members would support it.
There are those who will press it
next winter so that it will pass, and there is
little doubt of it, The increase of pensions
and the reconstruction of the navy viii, in
my judgment, greatly reduce the surplus
during the next four years. The party in
power will have the credit of this work,

Of the Nineteenth Century Art Society OPEN
ed yesterday morning. There are two Ameri-
can painters, Mr.. Aubrey Hunt and Mr..
William Norton, who have contributed
some among the best of the 400 paintings.
Mr. Hunts work, while somewhat in the
FortuDy style. is very impTessionsl, while
Mr.. Norton has a style OF his own, with
flavor Of Jules Breton. Both show the in.
iuence of Paris study. The prices were

WAsHIEGToN, Feb. 15.-Several positions

goes out Minister Foster will be out.
The position the President and his Cabinet

Federal positions TO women. cripples and

some of the walters at Welcker's Hetel.
The young man has been on so many
of these disastrous sprees that he has
quite got himself into disrepute and disfa-
vor with all classes. A jury would likely
deal severely with him in melting out the
justice of trial.
Some surprise has been shown at the man
ner in which Senator Malone pleads the case
of his son. The father seems in no spirit
of apology for his son, notwithstanding
the young mans ofense is very serious and
was unprovoked, and is in the line of sew
eral others committed during the last four
years.
There is disposition among the people
here to make an example of young Mohone,
and unless there are some liberal compro-
misses he may serve a term under sentence.

Continuous Sessions Held In the House.
SPECIAL to the Sentinel.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-It is quite likely
that the sessions Of the House will be almost
continuous hereafter. There will be merely
recesses taken from day to day shortly.
This will keep the House in Committee
of the Whole on the appropriation bills, and
will cut out al special orders. This
is Mr.. Randal's idea OF expeditiDg business,
and surely is the best the rules a ford. In the
event the bills are not well out Of the way
on next Saturday, the session Will be made
TO continue right through Sunday, and me
following Sunday, also if necessary.
There Will be sessions almost every night
hereafter, The majority of the Committee
on Appropriations are bent on rushing
matters.
In the Senate there is little need of nigh
or Sunday sessions. Everything is done ia
order there, and.it is seldom that any tin 3
is thrown away. The Committee on Apr
priations and its suxilisries meet daily ex.
cepting Sunday, and while in the House
committe, there are qusrrels and chickering's,
seldom anything interferes with the exped;-
tionsof the work in the Senate. The esti-
mates and prayers for appropriations are al
ways submitted to the House Committee,
however. and that of the Senate is consid-
cred but an appeal and reviewing COM
mittee.
Few there are in either the House or Senate
who believe the River and Harbor bill will
be passed. It Is doomed to death, although
some of its friends represent that ii will at
the last hour come mp and go through.
