select committee on the question touching
the meat product of the United States,
especially as to its transportation, with
leave to sit during the session and during
the next recess. Referred to committee

agreed to, calling on the secretary of the

persons, and what steps. if any, had been
taken by the department to protect the
persons OF females from such outrages.
At 1880 the senate proceeded to the
consideration of the tariff bill.
MIR. Harr1s-ln order to test the sense
OF the senate as to whether the principle
indicated by the house bill, which, as l
understand it, proposes to reduce the
revenue by reducing taxation, shall pre-
vail, or whether the principles on which
substitute proceeds that of reducing the
revenue by Ito some extent at least) in
creasing taxation, shall prevail, l move to
lay the amendment on the table and ask
loT Tue yeas anu nays.
The motion was rejected, yeas l6, nays

then proceeded with the reading of the
substitute for amendments. MIR. Vance
moved an amendment to the tobacco SEQ
ton, reducing the limit of the claim for a
rebate from $40 to IS. Rejected
The next subject, commencing at sec.
ton 3 and ending at section IL, YVES that
of alcohol used for industrial purposes
and the arts" No amendment was of
fere1, but Sherman said he had very
grave doubts as to the practicability of
applying these sections without encourag-
ing fraud. He would reserve the right to
offer n or two amendments to some of
the details. Harris gave notice that he
would also have some amendments to
offer to the internal revenue sections.
At 2 o'clock the Union Pacific settle

The White Caps.

CINCINNATI. Dec. 5.-The attorney
general of Ohio was here to-day in con-
sultation with the prosecuting attorneys
of Brown and Adams counties upon the
best means of suppressing the white
caps. The prosecuting attorneys present,
ed the difficulties Of the investigation and
prosecution. 1t is probable that the state
will supply money for the employment OF
detectives, and every possible effort will
be made TO stop this disgraceful lawless-
ness. Meantime warnings are flying

A Suspect Under Arrest.

CHICAGO, Dec. 5.-Public interest was
revived in the Smell murder case to day
by the publication which appeared in an
evening paper of a statement alleged to
have been made by A. j. Stone, son=in-
law of the murdered millionaire, in which
he said the supposed murderer had been
captured. Mr.. Stone said to an Associ-
ated Press reporter this evening that
what he did say was as follows;
81 have received a telegram from a man
who claims to have arrested W. b. Tas-
colt; that he now has him in his posses
sion and wishes to know when L could
send to identify him." | answered at
once: How do you know it is Tascott?
In answer | received a message saying
the prisoner answered all the descriptions
and that the man would send a photo
graph Monday. That photograph is what
l am now waiting Tor.
MIR. Stone preferred not to say at what
point in the country the prisoner Is being
held. An announcement was made by
Mr.. Stone this evening that has lent ad-
ditional interest to this celebrated case.
This was that the widow, Mrs. Henrietta
Smell, has increased the amount of the
reward of $40, 900 to $50, 900, making it
the largest amount ever offered for the
capture of any human being in the world.
This $50, 900 reward will be paid by Mrs.
SGell through the Chicago police depart
ment. The offer holds good for four
months from this date. All suspects ar
rested must be photographed and the
likeness be sent to either Mr.. Stone or
Geo. w. Hubbard, superintendent of the
Chicago police department. No detec-
tives will be sent, :sas heretofore, until
strong marks of Identification are pre-
scented.

Approves the Suggestion.

ROME, Dec. 4.-The Retormer refer
ring to President Cleveland's message,
approves of the suggestion that the laws
relating to naturalization of immigrants
be revised. Although five years residence
was sufficient when the Union did not
contain sixty millions Of inhabitants, it
was now insufficient. Many immigrants
abuse their rights in order to escape duties
towards the motherland. especially mill
tary service. This state of things causes
serious inconvenience.

Say the doc'ors-and who shall say
Them maya special predisposition seems
requisite 10 the development of rhehma-
tism. Where there is this tendency, most
of us know from observation what a deep
hold disease takes whence once incurred
and neglected for a short time. Is not
this a sound text, then, from which to
advocate the early use of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters in n malady so hard to
dislodge as rheumatism? Another thing.
1t is well ascertsined that a falling off in
vigor, resulting from indigestion and NAL
nutrition. increases liability to rheuma-
tism. What. then, is more likely to act
as a preventative-aside from its remedial
actiOn-than this potent r~ectifier of the
gastric troubles that increase:the rheumatic
tendency. Malaria, constipation, dyspep-
STA, b%iliousness, sleeplessness, nervous.
ness, debility and kidney troubles succumb
to this genial preventative and remedy.
