THE SILVER POOL.

Representative Dockery's Reso-
WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-A final con-
elusion with respect to the Dockery res
Olution providing for an investigation
of charges that representatives and SEN
ators were interested in a silver pool
will probably be reached by the rules
committee soon after the holidays are
over. The committee, when last the
subject was considered, discussed the
adyiSability OF S%ummOning a few wit
nesses to be Intercepted under oath be-
fore deciding what report to make to
the house on the resolution. 1t
was thought that if regularly sub
punaed the correspondents of the
st. Louis paper, i'll which the charge of
a Legislative silver pool was originally
made, might be willing to make some
more tangible statements than they had
published or had been willing TO Yolun-
Jeer 10 the committee. The speaker was
favorable to this course, as he Las
doubts of the propriety of investigating
charges that Go not make specific and
definite allegations with somewhat of
circumstantial detail, and though the
rules committee should have more of a
basis than the simple newspaper publ
cation upon which to order an inveStiga-
ton. Messrs. Blount and Mcmillan. the
Democratic members, thought the COM
mittee would be justified in ordering an
investigation, and Mi. Mckinley was
also of opinion That an investigation
ought to be had. A decision to report
Mr.. D0ckery's resolution to the house
with a favorable recommendation had
almost been reached, when the ship
ping bill and other matters came upand
delayed a final determination of whatito
do with the resolution.

Stringent Regulations as to the
Entry of Cattle From Canada.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-The secretary
of agriculture has to-day made all order
closing all the ports excerpts st. Adams,
in the collection district of Vermont,
against the importation of cattle, sheep
and other ruminantS and swine, and re-
curing that all such animals imported
through this collection district must en-
ter at the port of st. Adams, where they
must be inspected by a veterinary in
spector of the department of agriculture.
Railroad companies carrying animals
imported into the United States are re-
CURED to provide the necessary pens and
to unload such animals so that they ay
be properly inspected. The secretary says
this is done as a protection against the
introduction into this country from
Canada of any contagious disease af-
fecting these classes of animals. Such
inspection is provided for by the act of
Aug. 30, 1890, and i'll view of the fact
that the English veterinary authorities
at Dundee, Scotland, have only recently
seized Canadian cattle when landed
there, declaring them to be affected
with contagious pleuro-pneumOnia. Sec
rotary RuSk feels it incumbent upon
him to take all measures necessary for
its rigid enforcement. Moreover, En-
gland has prohibited the importation
into that country of sheep from the
United States Oh the ground that the
government has not heretofore caused
to be made an inspection or quarantine
of sheep arriving here from other parts
of the world. The stringent regulations
of Secretary Rusk are designed to in
sure the protection of the live stock of
the United States from imported dis
eases, and to secure, it possible, the re-
moval of %prohibitory restrictions now
placed upon animals exported from this
country.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 81. - Eighteen
senator's, with the vice president, as
sembled at moor to-day in the senate
chamber; the chaplain prayed, and
then. on motion of Mr.. Hoar, the SEN
ate adjourned. The programme pre-
vlously arranged had been carried out,
and the senate, which had refused to
take the usual holiday recess, adjourned
without %transacting business. There
was not Il committee meeting on the
senate side to-day, and. as but II Re-
publican member of the finance commit
tee Senator HiScock), was at the capt.
tol, there was not even a conversational
reference among senators to the tinan-
cial bill, which was but a few days
ago the all-absorbing topic of in
terest and talk. 1t is an undeniable
fact that the conservative element
among the Republican Senators-those
who believe that there should be no leg
iSlation at all on financial matters
have gained some ground by the inter
vention of the holiday season. They
relied largely upon 4 heavy Christmas
trade with correSpondingly Qulckened
circulation of money TO allay the agita-
ton among the business men of the
country. They also calculated that the
delay gained by the recess would in
crease the individual discomfort with
the caucus financial bill, and here again
they seem to have been partially
successful. But the extent of the dis
affection canno yet be foretold,
and if the pending business
in the senate is. disposed of within a
reasonably short space of time, it is
probable that the financial bill will be
brought up by the votes of the senators
who feel that while it is not acceptable
to them in every particular, still it is
the best compromise measure attaina-
bic. With the exception of a coterie of
newspaper men chatting with Repre-
sentative Crisp. Of Georgia, the hall of
the house was well nigh deserted. Be-
sides Mr.. Crisp, Messrs. Hayes and
Wade were the only members present,
and they were eng ged in their cor
respondence. There was a dearth of
gossip, II the news gatherers found
their search a bOolleSs one.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 27.-G. w.
Graniss, executor of the estate of Mrs.
George W. Cullum, deceased, has dis
posed of the residence real estate in this
city belonging to deceased and will
shortly forward the proceeds. amount
ing to $4,000 to the New York Cancer
hospital. The value of the estate in
this city was originally S150,OOO and
$4,000 is already forwarded for the
maintenance or the hospital in accor-
dance with the wishes of the deceased,
by whom it was founded and
whose death was the result of
cancer. The property here was
acquired by Gen. Henry w. Halleck in
early days while secretary of California.
After his death in 1872 his widow mar
ried Gen. Cuilum. Col. Grannis, as ex-
ecutor of the estate, has had occasion to
examine into the methods of treating
cancer, and in this connection, it is
stated, believes he has found in the dis.
covery of a San Francisco physician a
genuine remedy for the disease. The
testimony of a number of persons vino
have been treated and cured has been
taken, and three pronounced cases of
cancer from the New York hospital are
now on the way to San Francisco, in
charge of a prominent surgeon from
New York, to be operated upon, and to
decide whether the treatment shall be
introduced into the New York hospital.

ECONOMIC ASSOCIATION.
Interesting Proceedings and Some
Able Papers.

hOlc dpcTSs
WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-The first
business before the American Economic
association to-day was the reading of
the report of Richard I. Ely, the secre-
tary Of the association. 1t represented
the association as III a prosperous con-
dition, the number of members and SUBJ
scribers OIL the list being 635. Three
of the world, the report said, had re-
ceived the impulse which gave
them existence from the American
Economic association. The report
suggested the wisdom of continu-
ing the policy of Offering prizes
for essays, the object of these prizes
being to awaken public interest in econ
omic topics and lead to the formation of
intelligent opinions upon important
matters of the day. A paper was then
read by Prof. T. w. TauSsie, of Harv-
ard university, entitled, "a Contribu-
ton to the Theory of Railroad Rates."
The paper considered particularly the
explanation of the apparent anomalies
in the varying charges for different
classes of freight and passenger traffic.
The professor concluded that the key to
the situation lay in the fact that by far
thC SiCdlCot pdltOl q Runway ApcllScS
were joint-that is, were incurred,
lot each expense separately for
every bit of traffic, but jointly
for the traffic as a whole. The
apparent and real discrimination in
railway rates was the classification of
freight, higher charges on shorter hauls,
special rates, party rates-all these were
not the result of railway monopoly, or
of arbitrary discrimination by railway
managers, put arose naturally and al
most Inevitably from the peculiar condi-
tons under which railway tranSpOrta-
ton was carried on. Papers were also
expected from Hon. George Fl. Ely, of
Cleveland, OF the relative cost of water
and rail transportation, and from Prof.
Edmund j. James. of Philadelphia, on
the relation of railroad passenger traffic
to freight traffic. Neither gentleman
was present, however, the former being
i'll and the latter not reaching the city
on time. The convention then took a
recess.

COPYRIGHT.
Sir John Thompson States the Pc
sition of Canada in the Matter,

OTTAWA, Ont, Dec. 21.-Sir John
Thompson says that, since his CONVEX
sation with Lord Knutsford on the
copyright question, the Canadian gov
eminent has received no cemmuniea-
ton from the British colonial office on
the subject, except the transmission of
the views of the society of authors,
already published. Lord Knutsford is
of the opinion that Canada has not the
power to legislate on foreign copyright,
and it has not been agreed to confer
the power upon her. Sir John Thomp-
son, however, has good reasons for
believing that during the present
or the next session of the imperial par
lament legislation comforting the power
will be planned. He is of the opinion
that the passage of the SimOnds copy
right bill would not affect the Canadian
question. as that measure only gives
British authors domestic copyright in
the United States on condition that the
work is reset with American type and
rebound in the United States. An order
in council was passed by the Canadian
government some time ago, asking the
colonial Office to withdraw Canada from
the Berne copyright convention.
