Changing the Rules.
Special to the Globe.


WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-The Evening
Star says:
Some of the more conservative members of
both parties have taken up the question of
changing the rules of the house and will
favor different plan from that proposed by
Mr.. Springer. Being opposed to the distribu-
tion of the appropriation bill among other
committees, they will direct their attention
to the prevention of riders being carried
through the house on the appropriation bills.
Their idea is to give the committee control of
all the appropriations, but to take from it the
power to legislate or recommend legislation
on appropriation bills. There are now $50
representatives in Washington.

Logan the Man.


Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Dec. EVERY day
strengthens the impression that Gen. Logan
will be made president of the senate. The
only matter in dispute is how lie shall be
elected. The opinion seems to favor the
plan proposed by Senator Conger, viz:
Elect senator pro tem., in order to swear
in Logan, and on the following day elect
the latter to the chair. 1t is conceded that
the senate can change the president pro
TEN. as often as it chooses Another way
would be to adopt the Ferry precedent
and offer a resolution declaring that the
oath of Office be administered to Gen.
Logan and then declare him elected presi-
dent pro tenn. There is another precedent
analogous to the Ferry case, to be found in
the Thirty-ffth congress. At the special
session which assembled on March 4, 1857,
the senate passed resolution directing the
oath of Office to be administered to Mr..
Mason, and that he be declared president
pro tenn. Mr.. Mason had been chosen
president pro tenn. at the preceding session,
but his senatorial term having expired with
that session, and he having been reelected
to the senate. his appointment as president
pro TEN. was thereby rendered necessary.

WASHINGTON, Dec. At is announced
to-day that MI. Randall is preparing a
tariff bill, which will reduce the revenue

to death by the anti-Randall people, through
their personal hatred of him.

The National Trottins Association

Special to the Globe.
NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-Before the board
of review of the National Trotting associa-
tion, the case of the Cleveland club, asking
for confirmation of the expulsion of T. J..
Dunbar, was continued to Chicago in May,
after argument against the proposition by
counsel for the club. One of the explana-
tions offered by President Grant was that
the order of expulsion would remain in
force until Dunbar asked for its removal.
and that he alone would suffer by the de-
lay. The case of Hamilton Busbey against
H. Y. Bemis, charged with starting two
horses in same race. also was continued to
adjourned meeting to be held in Chicago in
May. The reason for the action was that
Bemis was absent on account of bad health.
The board will probably remain in session
until Friday. The racing on half-mile
track at Hoboken is stoutly opposed by all
leading turfmen. 1t is simply a gambling
venture on part of crippled owners and is
certain to bring discredit on the turf. The
races are fairly attended by the reckless
speculating class, such as those who play
policy,

Interstate Commerce.

Opecldl tO Ine UlODs
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-Senator Cullom
is preparing report on interstate COM
merce Investigations by his subcommittee,
and will favor the appointment of a commit
tee to have general supervision regulating
interstate commerce. He will propose the
strongest kind of legislation to prevent ex-
tortionate charges and unjust discrimination
in rates, as between different shippere.
The system of rebates will also be con-
demned and legislation suggested to break
up that practice. Attached to the report
will be bill designed to put into effect the
views of the committee, and the passage of
this measure will be urged upon the senate.
Mr. Cullom expects to have his report ready
for presentation by the second week of the
session and it will be offered before the hol-
iday recess. The investigations of the COM
mittee, Mr.. Cullom says, have shown that
almost without exception the business men
of the country favor the passage of the
commission bill. Mr.. Huntington's new
move with reference to Newport as port
for export in grain is looked upon with
much interest here. he claims that it will
draw very large share of the grain
business of the Northwest from New York.

Gossip About the Czar's Order.

ST. PETERSBURG, Dec 2.-The Journal
de St. Petersburg, referring to the imperial
order published yesterday, praising the
prowess of Bulgaria, says:
Russia has never ceased to sympathize with
the Bulgarian people. 1t is impossible, how
ever, to forget those who deceived the ex-
pectations of Russia, ignored her counsels,
precipitated a fratricidal war. imperlled Bull
garias destinies and assumed heavy re-
sponsibility.
The unofficial newspapers state that the
imperial order strikingly proves that moral
bonds still knit Russia and Bulgaria. The
Svet military organ) recommends that a
commission be appointed to investigate the
charges against the Bulgarian government
filed at the foreign Office. The Novoe
Vremya says:
The imperial order conforming the ties of
friendship between Russia and Bulgaria
must terminate the differences from which
Russias rivals we're inclined to make capital,
1t concludes by hopin g that this step OF
the czar will be rightly understood and ap-
preciated in Bulgaria, London and Vienna.

WRECK ON TIE suNFLowER.

Freight train No. Q, bound west on the
st. Louis, Fort Scott 4 Wichita railroad,
was badly wrecked three miles west of
Greenwich about IL O'Clock yeterday morn
ing. Nine cars were derailed and about 500
feet of track torn up. Nobody was hurt.
The cause of the wreck was a broken fiange
which derailed that car, then all the cars in
the rear Of this one were slung about pro-
miscuously. One of Anheuser Busch's cars
laden with the fluid they manufacture was in
the wreck and was badly smashed.
The fluid, of course, was destined for
some town west of Wichita as nothing of
the kind is used here except little for me-
chanical purposes-greasing wagons and
SIGH. A brakeman stood on top of one car
that was thrown clear across the track but
he came out unhurt. A man with team
and some household goods was in another
car, and he nor the horses were hurt. The
other cars were loaded with merchandise.
An engine left this city for the wreck, tax
ing some fiat cars upon which the beer and
other goods were loaded and brought to
this city. The train went out again last
night for the wreck and will take the re-
mainder of the goods on board. There WAS
talk of building track around the wreck so
as to let the passenger train through.
