Especial telegram 70 the Dispatch.l
WASHINGTON. January S.--The
Democratic members Of the Ways ard
Means committee held preliminary
conference to-day lasting two hours for
the purpose Of ascertaining the views Of
a majority as 10 the manner in which
they should present the tariff question
10 the House.
Mr. Morrison still prefers horizontal
cut Of rates, while Mr.. Hewitt advo-
Gated the adoption Of bis bill, the lead
ing feature Of which is free raw ma
terisls. Among the other members
there was a great diversity of opinion,
but all were agreed that the general
bill reducing tariff duties should be re-
ported 10 the House as soon as practical
bic.
The prevailing opinion seemed to be
that II would be most polite to present
a bill that not only would be sure to
pass the House, but would also have a
reasonable chance TO pass the Senate.
They propose to attack the tariff by
piecemeal with separate bills If they
do not succeed with general bill.
The committee will not formally or
ganixe until next week, aud in the mean
time the members will go over the va
rious tariff bills introduced this session
to see what can be done with them.

Bursting Of % Dam.

lBy telegraph to the Dhpatch.l
TAMAQUA, Pa, January S.--The
dam across Wabash creek at Reeves
dale, near this place, burst this morn
ing. The ! o'clock passenger train
from Pottsville was just opposite the
dam when it broke. The back water
struck the cars and ran into the heaters
under them. causing vast volume OF
steam to arise and envelope the entire
train. The passengers were much
frightened. The engine, however, es-
capped the flood and pulled the train
safely through the water. The tracks, OF
the Philadelphia and Reading railroad
were much washed and completely inun-
dated, delaying all trains. The burst
was caused by the breaking of an old
tunnel in the abandoned Reeyesdale
collery. A gang Of fifty repair-men
are working steadily to clear the tracks
and turn the new channel made by the
flood from their road-bed.

CHICAGO, January 8.-The blizzard
raging throughout Illinois, Iowa, Kan
sas, Nebraska, Dakota, and Minnesota
is declared to be Of wider extent and
Hercer in character than has been known
before in years. All moving western
trains are behind time. Many other
trains have been showed in and aban-
doned. Very little can be learned con-
corning the abandoned trains, or of the
further effects Of the storm, owing to
the blowing down Of telegraph.poles
and wires and the stoppage Of tele-
graphic communication. The tempera-
ture throughout Dakota is stated to be
20 to 40 below with a wild blizzard
blowing. A telegram from Fargo says
the thermometer registered p below at
noon to-day. Yesterday is described
as the toughest day in the experience
Of the city. Bismarck reports high
wind, with the thermometer 35 below.
A high wind is prevailing at Sioux
City and the temperature is 20 degrees
below. Omaha registered 20 degrees
below. Telegraphic communication
with Omaha has been cut off nearly all
day. California kilograms were being
sent ria St. Paul and Northern Pacific,
with only one wire working. A tele-
gram from Des Moines, Iowa, says
the cold wave continues there, with
high winds and drifting snow.
All through trains west Of there
are blocked, and branch roads
are showed up. Chicago and Burling-
ton trains are stuck fast in drift abou.
fifteen miles south of Des Moines. The
Wabash road south from that city is
badly drifted. The Fort-Dodge Mar
row-Gauge road has been abandoned.
A snow-storm prevailed throughout
Illinois all day, but the cold weather
has not been severe so far. 1t is, how
ever, growing colder tonight. All the
roads to Omaha are reported practically
blocked in Central Iowa.

lBy telegraph to the Dispateh.l
WASHINGTON, January 8.--The at
tendance Of representatives at the Cap
itol to-day was small, and principally
confined to members who were 10 ar
rears in their correspondence and de-
sired to take advantage of the recess to
attend TO private business. Contrary
to general expectation but few commit
tees organized. Mr.. Randall has not
yet issued call for the assembling Of
the Appropriations Committee. The
new select Committee on American
Shipping Interests is at present with
out meeting-room. The same state
Of affairs exists as to several Of the
select committees, and the Speaker is
experiencing some trouble in his efforts
to provide suitable committee-rooms
for the accommodation of the Sc
lcct committees. The Committee
on Commerce organized this morn
ing and fixed Tuesdays and Fridays
as the days for meeting. The
Committee on Naval Affairs also Or
ganized and named Wednesdays and
Fridays as their days for meeting. In
view Of the additional Importance Of
the work Of the committee growing out
Of the assignment to it Of the duty Of
preparing the naval appropriations bill,
it was deemed proper to sub-divide the
work. Accordingly, Chairman Herbert
was instructed to prepare plan of SUBJ
division for submission to the commit
tee. From the tone of the discussion
this morning it seems probable that the
members will be divided into six sub
committees. The full committee will
call on Monday in a body upon the Sec
rotary of the Navy to pay their respects.

The Bavarisn King as the Theatre.


1t was determined that Nine. dc Pom
padour in Brachvogel's Narcisss"
should be the part in which ! should
make my appearance before the hermit
King. The performance was to begin
at midnight. At 1850 the actors were
all gathered on the stage, where they
awaited in dead silence the royal
command to begin. At II precisely Al
electric bell announced that the King
had left the palace and was on his
way to the theatre by his private pas
sage. A second signal soon made
known that his majesty was installed
in his box, and instantly the curtain
rose, as to keep the King waiting one
single instant entails the gravest conse-
quence for the management. There
were no lights in the house, but the light
from the stage, Of course, penetrated 1t
dimly. The single spectator in the
royal box was totally invisible and re-
NAMED absolutely silent from begin
ming to the end OF the performance.
When tho curtain at last fell, be-
tween 3 and 4 in the morning, the ac-
tors were ordered 10 remain silent on
the stage, lest any noise should disturb
the reverie in which il was the Kings
habit to remain plunged for some time
after the performance was over. At
last bell announced that he had taken
his departure, and his slaves were h-
leased. An old chamberlain at once
waited upon me in my dressing.room,
with an enormous bouquet and .
piece of jewelry, presented with the
compliments Of the King, whose titles
he scrupulously reeited from beginning

The Judge MISUNDERSTANDING.


WASHINGTON, January Sit is ru-
mored IN army circles that the Presi-
dent will shortly recommend to Con-
gress the passage Of bill authorizing
him to fill the Office Of Judge Ad-
vocate General of the Army at
once. General Swain, who formerly
held that office, was sentenced by
court-martial to suspension for twelve
years, at the end of which period
he will be placed on the retired LIST. 1t
is said that the President desires to fill
the Office, but is uncertain as to his
powers in the premises. A plan has
been suggested that he nominate a per-
son for the office and let the Senate
pass on the legal questions at issue.
