WASHINGTON, January 5.-Congress re.
assemblies tomorrow, The list of ab.
sentees will be unusually large on ac
count of members of both Hou ses suffer-
lug from influenza. The most important
work, SO far as can be judged now, will
be done in committee. On Wednesday
according to agreement before the hoii-
day recess, Hiscock's Committee on
Celebration of the Quadri- Centennial oi
the Discovery of America will begin
hearing the statements of committees
representing the cities which are en-
deavoring to secure the proposed
Worlds Fair. Then there remain
numerous executive nominations to be
considered. Prominent among them is
that Of Thomas j. Morgan to be Com
missioner of Indian Affairs. Just before
adjournment Teller stated that he would
upon reconvening, call up for action his
resolution providing for the considera
tion OF all executive nominations in open
session. Several important measures
will be introduced, aad Morgan's Brazil
resolution will come up again.
The House begins it's session tomor
row with but two bills in position o bt
considered-the District of Columbia ap
preparation bill and McKinley's Admin
istrative Customs bill. AS McComas
who has charge of the appropriation bill
is sick, nothing will be done with tha
until he is able to be in his seat; and a
Mckinley will be busily eng aged durinl
the week with the meeting Of the Com
mittee on Ways and Means, any discus
sion of the customs bill is likely to bt
desultory and merely to kill time.
The Committee on Ways and Mean
have scheduled hearings for this week a
follows: Monday, silk and sugar; Tues
day, tobacco and liquors; Wednesday
provisions and farm products; Tnurs
day, wood and paper; Friday, sundries
1t is expected that the tariff bill will b,
reported to the House about the 1st o
February.
The Journal Clerk has been engaged
during recess in arranging code of rule
for the House, draft of which will be
submitted to the Committee on Rules
some time this week.
A report il expected this week from
the Silcott committee upon the facts an,

One OF the anomalies of newspaperine
is the late action of Mr.. James Gordon
Bennett in selling out his New York
property. There is great speculation in
the metropolis as to what this means
He has sold the Herald block for $780,
600, his Fifth-svenue house for $3.50 :
0OO; and, on top of this, be has mort
gagged his Washington Heights property
for $130,e00. He has thus raised in a
lump sum $1,2s0,OO0, and for what pur-
pose the quid nuncs are at loss to tell.
Mr.. Bennett has been engaged with Mr.,
John w. Mackey, of California, in At
lantic Gable and Postal Telegraph
schemes. but these, it is believed, have
been paid for long ago. Mr.. Bennett also
recently started a daily newspaper in
London, and what success that venture
has met with people on this side of the
water do not know much about. 1t is
said, however, that the New York Herald
will net it's owner this year fully $780,
600. Where these immense sums ara put
by the eccentric journalist may we'll ex.
cite speculation.

THE RUN ACROSS THE ATLANTIC.
Why the Yorktown Jagged Behind,
A Most Remarkable
Voyage.
Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD, {,

Associated Press Dispatches to the HEIALD.)
LONDON, January 5.-The American
squadron of evolution has arrived at
Gibraltar from Tangier.
New YORK, January 5.-An Associated
Press correspondent ON board the United
States steamer Atlanta, in letter from
Lisbon, describes the experiences of the
squadron in the trip across the At
lantic. Referring to the dropping be-
hind of the Yorktown he says: At Z
p. m. on the 18th, in the height of a
furious southwesterly gale and tre-
mendous sea, the Commander of the
Yorktown made signals to the flagship
requesting permission to "heave to-"
which was granted. From that the
Yorktown dropped astern. The action
of her Commander is no more than
could have been expected. The York
town is comparatively light ship,
carrying very heavy battery. Thus
it would have been the height of folly
to have kept a vessel OF her peculiar
design running before such heavy sea.
Had one of the monstrous combs which
from time to time rolled over the At
lanta's and Boston's sterns ever pumped
on the Yorktown's main-deck, it would
have gutted her fore and aft. During
the night and all the next day the sea
ran mountains high, but the Atlanta, in
spite of her low fore and after part, rode.
it like duck, as did also her sister Ship
the Boston. Nothing could more forcibly
convey to the mind the fury of the At
lantic than the sight of these huge cruis-
ers, tossed like the tiniest of playthings
by the sea, scudding under reefed fore
and main-top sails and fore-sail, and
burying the muzzles of their guns under
the water at every roll. 1t seemed in
credible that their canvas would stand,
or that they could long continue to run
before such a sea. No thought of 'slying
to-" however, suggested itself to the mind
OF Admiral Walker. The Chicago rolled on
and on and the two gallant brgs fol-
lowed, even if they did occasionally hide
their entire fore and after parts under
the green seas. On the morning of the
14th the wind lulled considerably, but
before nightfall it began to blow with re-
newed violence. At 6 a. m. on the 18th
the Boston made signals that her boilers
needed repairs, and the Chicago and At
lanta slowed down until the repairs were
completed. Fog, heavy rain and misty
sea were the principal features of the re-
mainder of the voyage. A set of more
seaworthy vessels never put to sea. Dur
ing the entire run, and in the face of ex-
ceptionally bad weather, they main
tanned at half power an average speed of
over nine knots an hour, q remarkable
performance, and it is safe to say one
that has never been equaled by any
squadron.

THE California Pioneers ga We Col.

at their hall in San Francisco on Now
Years Day. 1t was the ninetieth birth
day of the veteran who commanded the
two regiments of New York Volunteers
which arrived in California in 1S47 DUR

was hale, hearty and as spry as boy,
and enjoyed the greeting OF his old
friends immensely. An enterprieing re-
porter asked the Colonel how it was that
at his advanced age he was 80 hearty
and well preserved. He said to
him: "Young man. I always kept regular
hours and drank a glass of good whiskey
punch after every meal" This is a horri-
BILE disclosure for the ancient warrior to

on the ears of our prohibition friends.
