APP0RTlONMENI.

WASHINGTON, Dec. about thirty OF
the Republican representatives got To-
gether in the room of the committee on ap-
propriations this afternoon, after the ad-
journing Of the house, and informally
discussed the reapportionment question.
Nearly all of the leading Republicans were
present, including the speaker, Major
Mckinley, Mr.. Cannon, Chairman Dun
nell, and Messrs. BOutelle. Mchenna,
Adams and Franck, of the census commit
tee. The latter's political a. almanacs were
sent for, and the changes in population
shown by the census, and the effects OF
these changes. were carefully canvassed
There was no intention to press any propo-
sition to vote, and the only conclusions
reached were that, for the present, there
was no reason to hold party caucus, and
that the census committee should De lett
free to deal with the matter.
The probabilities of the Republicans
having a quorum of their own members
entered largely into the discussion, and
while some members expressed doubts, the
majority were sanguine that the party
could secure full attendance of members
If necessary. Several of those present
were asked if it had been decided that the
apportionment bill should be passed, said
that no decision was reached, but each per-
sonally insisted that the bill would un-
questonably be passed

THE SlOUX INDIANS.

WASHINGTON, Dec. The secretary of
the interior this morning directed that the
Sioux Indians be supplied with increased
rations, sufficient to conform to the agree
ment made in 1877. The appropriations
for supplies for the Sioux have decreased
every year, upon the supposlt1on that the
Indians were becoming men and more
capable of maintaining themselves
Owing, however, TO the partial failure of
the crops for the last year or two, and the
restlessness of the Sioux, which Is believed
to be in a measure due to the reduction Of
rations, the secretary has ordered an in
crease. The increase will amount TO be-
tween one-fourth and one-third Of the
present supply The officials OF the Indian
bureau have already begun the prepara-
ton Of estimates Tor additional sppropria-
tions. which viii be asked of congress to
carry out the instructions of the secretary.
Acting Indian Commissioner Bell today
sent to congress an urgent request that
several appropriations asked for during
the last session TO carry out the agreement
made with the Sioux by the Sioux com
mission. OF which Gen. Crook was chair
man, receive the prompt attention CT that

WASHINGTON. Dec. There was a very
large attendance of senators present at the
opening of today's session. The seats on
both sides of the chamber were nearly all
occupied, and the galleries were filled with
spectators. The most conspicuous object
in the chamber was large bed of roses,
surmounted on a dome-like pedestal, on
which strutted, in the flush and pride of
victory, a rooster, emblematic of the DEM
ocratic success in the recent elections.
This decorated the desk of Mr.. voorhees,,
whose name, with that of Indiana and the
date "lS90," were wrought into the pedes-
tai with flowers of contrasting colors
There was a card attached to it with the
names of the admiring gentlemen who
presented it.
The vice president and several senators
were also the recipients of handsome floral
tributes. The utmost cOrdiality seemed to
prevail between the senators of the two
parties, who greeted eacn other as the
best of friends whom no political successes
or reverses could estrange
Immediately after the chaplain's prayer,
the credentials of the two senators-elect
from the new state of Wyoming were pre-
sented by Mr.. Hoar, and when they were
read the two senator's, MeSsrs. Carey and
Warren, were escorted to the vice presi-
dents desk by Messrs. Stanford and Hoar,
and took the oath of office. Drawing by
lot to decide their respective terms took
place. the shorter term, closing March 3,
1893. falling to Mr.. Warren. and the long
er one, closing March 8 1895, to Mr.. Carey.
Resolutions, fixing the daily hour of
meeting at II o'clock, and providing for
informing the president and the house of
representatives that the senate was in
session and ready to proceed to business

After the recess, a report was made from

IRRIGATION.

The subject Of the conservative and
equal distribution OF the water SupplV OF
the arid regions has had much attention
from congress. but has not a. yet been put
upou a permanent aud satisfactory basis
The urgency Of the subject does not grow
out OF any large present demand for the
use of these lands for agricultural pur-
poses, but of the danger that the water
supply and the sites for the necessary
ratch-hasins may fall into the hands Of
individuals or private corporations and be
used 10 render suhservient the large areas
dependent upon such supply.
The owner of the water is the owner Of
