ter some other business, the Aldermen's or
der a.propriatiug $3.50 as subsidy to the

Mr.. E. S. Leadbeater, its president, urged
that the city should either make the subsi.
dy or buy the boat at the price of its debts,
5000 or 500 Ho renewed the statements
made by him respecting the benefit of the
boat TO the town. The boat, he said, was
not nov running. The management did
not see its way clear to pay $50 rent in ad-
vance for the ferry site, and it did not pay
10 run to Fort Foote.
MIR. Brent regretted to be compelled by
his duty 20 vote against the subsidy; for it
was entirely beyond the right of councilmen
to use the taxes for this purpose. Whatever
Council might give any citizon could stop
the payment by Injunction. But no one
could say that the boat benefited the town
in any considerable degree. All the lead.

FILLED WITH RUM.
The Mysterious Bustle Worn by Tampa Lady
Who Made Frequent Trips to Cuba.

TAMPA, Fla, Dec. 19-The customs officials
here have made pture of an unique article,
which is now in possession of COL John G.
Gibbes, of the United States Secret Service, and
which he will preserve as curiosity. 1t is a
hustle made of tin, in the shape of crescent, SO
as to fit snugly. At either end it is very thin,
but is expanded SO as to be about an inch and a
half wide about the middle and, being hollow
inside. holds exactly one gallon. When discov-
cred by the lady inspectors at Tampa. the owner
had il on in its proper place, and it answered ad
mirably for the purpose for which such things
are used, but. unfortunately for the owner, it
was found to contain a gallon of fine Cuban
rnrn, which she was evidently endeavoring to
smuggle
For some time it has been suspected that this
lady was engaged in some peculiar business,
which made necessary frequent trips to and from
Cuba After consultation. it was decided to
make the proper inquiry. When first questioned
the lady exhibited much Indignation that she
should be even suspected, and finally began to
weep, however The lady who was appointed to
make the inspection, however, kind but
firm, and the result was the discovery of the
mysterious hustle, filled with rum. All was
seized, the liquid was poured out where it would
do the most good, and the vessel was turned
over to Colonel Gibbes.

Eight desperate rounds were fought.

blood was freely drawn on both sides.
The faces of both men were terribly cut
and dishgured, and both had to be carried from
the spot Early in the night the police got wind

for the fight, appeared and prevented it. There
was bad blood between the principals, however,
and finally the loft was secured, into and from

THE GERMAN ARMY BILL.
The Reichstag Adjourned to the 4th Prox.
Without Passing 1t.

WitnOuC RAISING 1G
BERLIN, Dec. 18.--At the opening of the
Reichstag, to-day, Herr Won Koel, Conser va
tive, proposed that the next sitting be fixed for
Monday. He urged the necessity that the
Reichstag revise the decisions of the commits
sion, and not adjourn for the holidays, until the
fate of the military bill is settled. An excited
debate followed. The members of the Center
and the Progressists denied that they were OBJ
structing the passage of the bill, and the Con-
servative and National Liberal speakers Joined
in urging that the bill he pushed forward in the
face of all opposition.
Minister Won Boetticher expressed regret that
the bill had TO chance to advance sufficiently to
make possible an increase of the army at the be-
ginning of the new financial year He said the
Emperor had confidently expected that the
representatives of the people would recognize
the imperative necessity of the bill in the inter
ests of the security of the country. The Reich
stag might still assist the government to realize
the intentions of the bill In most emphatic
and earnest manner he urged the members to
measure. The President here proposed that the
Reichstag adjourn until the 4th of January. DIR.
Windthorst moved that the House adjourn until
the 7th prox. When a vote was about to De
taken it was found that there was no quorum
and the President thereupon fixed the 4th of
January as the date for the next meeting. Des-
pite the defeats in the commission and the
Reichstag the Conservatives are hopeful that o

New YORK, Dec. 19-Henry George is well
pleased with the number of responses that have
come in from the circulars sent throughout the
country asking the workingmen to join the new

vigorously. 1t is the intention of the executive
committee to call a meeting ofsthe national con-

Land and Labor party seems to be the most
popular just now, several branches having as
suined is. 1t will remain, however, for the con-
ference to decide upon the name Of the new
party.
