Plans for an Exhibition Building at Fort
Worth.
When q GAZETTE man dropped into tn
cozy quarters occupied BY the P. c. G.
c. exhibit at the Union depot, he was
shown plans Of a large exhibition build
ing which had been drawn up by Mr..
Tilghman Graham, the manager of tine
exhibit. Mr.. Graham is an artist of
considerable ability, whose talents were
made known to the people of this city in
design for the Al Hayne monument
which was given some circulation.
The plan for the exhibition building is
not elaborate or ornate, but suggests q
PLAIN, roomy building which would ac-
commodate the several sections of the
state which are looking In the direction
of Fort Worth for means by which to ad-
vertiss and exhibit their resources to the
world.
The success which has attended the
operation of the P. G.. q. G.. exhibit
though conducted on a necessarily linn
tied scale, is an index to what might be
expected from a larger building aud ex-
hibit. Mr.. Graham 3 register shows that

ARKANSAS CITY, KAH., Dec. 19.-It
Is asserted that the csttlemen have not
gwen up hope of again turning their
herds into the Cherokee Strip. They
expect the offers by several parties of
large sums for the lands which are be-
lieved here to be part of preconcocted
plan, Will have the effect of preventing
the com IN issioners from making a deal
with the Cherokees, and that this will
prevent the Strip being opened. Then
as soon as grass starts in the spring they
will smuggle their cattle back in the
Strip. To this end large numbers of
cattle are now being held in this reserva-
ton adjoining the Strip. Soldiers sta
tened south of the strip are getting
ready to move, having received orders to
report for duty. The thousands of peo-
Pile are watching the soldiers. and the
moment they are gone the settlers will

FREE COINAGE.
Senator Reagan Offers Such an Amend
ment to the Financial Bill.
He Has No Faith In the Proposition Looking
to an International silver Coin
age Conference.
F,nanc,a, and Force Bills.


WASHINGTON, Dec. Ex-senator Rea-
gan to-day offered in the senate an
amendment to the financial bill agreed
upon yesterday by the finance com mittee +,
the effect of which is to substitute for the
first section of the bill q free coinage
section, and to amend the remaining
sections of the bill to correspond in pur-
pose by striking out all reference to sill
yer purchase. The proposition looking
TO an international conference on the
subject Of silver coinage is allowed to re-
main untouched, although Senator Rea-
gan does not believe it will amount to
anything.
Senator Morgan to-day introduced q
resolution relative to the election bill,
the preamble of which recItes that In the
bill reported to the senate certain Sec
tions of the revised statutes are amended
and specifically mentioned, that without
Incorporation in the bill of the sections
referred to of the existing law, it is I'M
certain what changes are intended to be
made. The committee on privileges
aud elections is therefore directed by
resolution to amend section ID SO as to
show what are tle changes and modif-
cations In the sections of the existing
law, which are intended to be made by
the present bill. To avoid committing
the bill and the proposed amendment to
the committee on privileges and elections
the committee is instructed to make
supplemental report showing changes
and mod ifications in the existing statutes
which they recommend and provide for
hem In an amendment reported to lhe
.enate.

Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2O.-There is decided dis
positi on among hose who exercise the most in
1uence over legislation in both houses of con-
gress to avoid all financial legislation at this
session. It is safe to say that the senate
finance committee do not expect that there Will
be any legislation. Some of The strongest men
in the two houses believe the financial affairs of
The country will right themselves in the coarse
o q month or two if let alone. They think that
there is no necessity for legislation to relieve
the money market, but, on the contrary, that
there is
POSITIVE DANGER
in attempting such legislation. Acting upon
this theory they will do all they can to prevent
anything being done. The constant ag tation
OF some compromise plan without either coming
to al agreement will probably keep the thing
hanging in the air until the eagerness for action
has subsidei. he expectation from day to
day that something will pc done is relied upou
to keep the ralical silver men from acting
for themselves. The policy OF the party leaders
is to keep
STAYING THE MATTER OFF.
Senator Reagan to- day offered in the senate
an amendment to the financial bill agreed upon
yesterday by the finance committee, the effect
of which is to substitute for the first section OF
the bill "a free coinage section end to amend the
remaining sections of the bill to correspond in
purpose by striking out all reference to silver
purchases. The proposition looking to an inter
national conference on the subject of silver
coinage is allowed to remain untouched. al
though Mr.. Reagan says he does not believe
that it will amount to anything.

There is evidently one man in Texas who

John 7. Newsou. who failed to report for u
$500 clerkship in the pension office. TO which he
had been appointed. The appointment has.
therefore, been cancelled. There many
other Texans who would undou btedly se.ze the
the necessary exami lation and await the next
vacancy, which may fall to the Lone Star state.
