and then you may look for adiversion.
The senator was asked IL majority
could be secured for the cloture resolu-
ton. He replied that Senator Aldrlch,
who had it in charge. had been instructed
TO canvass the Republican side of the
senate before putting IN the new rule.
Senator Aldrich was O clear-headed,
shrewd man, and il was hardly TO De
presumed he would enter into as great O
struggle as this promised to be without
sort of assurance of sufficient power be-
hind him TO win q victory.
A sergeant could barely secure enough
members who were present in the

ishing quorum Here and there few
gentlemen would gather in groups, and

BUSINESS NOW PENDING
IN the two houses. The concensus OF
opinion, especially on the Democratic
tide, was that debate on the shipping
bill would be prolonged to much greater
sxtent than had been expected, many
representatives, on Dotn eloes OF tue Eouss
having signided their desire to deliver
Ipeeches upon the measure.
or course representatives are in the
dark as to the action OF the senate on
the clotare, financial measure and cleo
lions bill. That the first will be adopted
ID considered doubtful. AS to the sec
ond, the feeling of the Republican side
IL that no financial bill can pass the
house that is not purely Republican, and
that IS agreed upon by party caucus,
mud that is not put through the senate
without the aid of Democratic votes.
That the prospect OF the election bill is
not very bright, unless pending debate
Is brought TO g speedy end, is admitted
by all, a prospect which is deplored by
the Republicans and openly reioiced In
by the Democrats.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-The senate
committee on commerce to-day gave q
hearing 10 Messrs. L. +. Dana, Denver;
Howell Jones, Topeka; J. b. Clark,
Chicago, and a. Z. Chamber Des
Moines, upon the bill introduced by
Senator Cullom to incorporate the Pan
American transportation company. These
gentlemen appeared as a subcommittee
appointed by the interstate deep harbor
committee. They SAID the committee
was backed by 10, 900 200 people, and
was created to look after the welfare of
the West before congress, but especially
to secure an adequate appropriation from
congress to build at least one deep water
harbor on the Texas coast OF the gulf.
Most of the great trunk lines, they said,
had connections terminating on the
coast and all other western and southern
roads were rapidly building or negotiat-
ing for connections. This left but one
proposition open for discussion-that
ocean transportation be operated in con-
nection with these great railway
systems.
The sub committee was also appointed
with the special object to establish line
OF steamers to ply between various ports
of the Gulf of Mexico aud parts of Gen.
trail and South America. The sub-com-
mittee told how its members had assem-
bled in Galveston last November, and
determined 10 establish such q line TO ba
Owned by the business men of the United
States who were directly interested in the
development of the South and West, and
In order that il might be national in
character md international in scope, it
was determined 10 apply TO congress for
of wealth and high character, with CAPT
tai exceeding SIS, 600, 900, and had it
been deemed necessary 100 incorporators
might be obtained, whose combined cap
itaI would have exceeded 500, GOO, goo.
Congress had established 2 precedent for
action in the incorporation OF the Pacific
railway companies, the Hudson River
bridge company and the Nicaragua canal
companY. The deep water project was
justified BIZ inuumerable considerations,
growing out of the establishment of
our navy, of our merchant marine, and
the recommendation of the late PAN
American congress-, as well IS the recon-
mendntion OF the president. The sub-
committee asked OF congress national
character. in return for which they PROM
iced TO build their own ships In
the United States at an increase OF 20 or
so per CEN, fy the flag OF our country
and in the alton g peril 10 place their
ships ut the disposal OF the government
with this national character they would
be able 20 negotiate for concessions from
foreign governments in consideration of
their establishing quick communication
between their markets and our own.
The establishment of Pau-Amerioan
lines would effect saving of so per cent
IN time ehd reduce freight transportation
expenses in q corresponding degree, and
furnish such facilities AS would result in
r material increase of commerce between
this country and Central and South
America.
The committee on commerce hes as
yet taken no action on the bill.

GEN. MILES REPORT.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-Gen. Scoield
this morning received the following tele-
gram from Gen. Miles, under date of
Rapid City, S. D.:
"Have not heard from Col. Carr for
thirty-six hours. He started to inter-
oept Big Foot. Should he succeed or
return him TO the Cheyenne agency it
Will be favorable, rs Gen. Brooke re-
ports. A messenger from Little Wound,
Big Roast and Fast Hunter, who are
leaders of the Indians who went to the
Badshalds, says about half the Indians
there are coming, and he thinks the rest
will follow. Should this not be inter-
cepted by some unforeseen event it will
be most desIrable.' -
ANOTHER REPORT.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-Gen. Schofield
has received another telegram from Gen.
Miles dated Rapid City, s. D., as fol-
lows: tCol. Sumner reported his COM
mand at Big Foot's camp at the Chey-
enne river, and that Big Foot assured
him he would do whatever he said, and
bring all his people to his runners camp.
but he deceived him and eluded his COM
mand, going South in light order. This
was most unfortunate, just at this time,
and may turn the scale against the eff
forts that have been made to avoid an
Indian war. Up to this time all pros
poets look favorable, and in one week
twenty-four of the worst element has
been removed. -

Points about the Hair Brush.

There is another consideration in con-
nection with the use of the hair brush.
which, though it may scarcely need men
ton, should not be overlooked. The
brush should be kept clean. 1t gives
one shudder to see the brushes and
combs that are sometimes supplied at
places of public resort. No one should
ever think of using public hair brush
any more than a public tooth brush, I'M
less 1T becomes matter of absolute ne
cessity; but the fact remains that the IN
dividual article requires to be properly
cared for, else it becon es an instrument
Of danger rather than delight
If the case is not very aggravated the
bristles may be washed in lukewarm
water, to which few drops of ammonia
can be added. This will clear away the
accumulated dust and dirt as by magic.
The bristles can be rinsed in pure water
and allowed to dry in an airy place; the
brush should not be exposed to the sun,
nor should the back of it be wet at any
time. Soda and soap soften the bristles,
and if the back of the brush be of ivory
it will turn yellow by their application.
For general use it is better economy to
buy cheap brush, and, after using it
for a reasonable time, throw it into the
fire and start afresh

In London there is joke going the
rounds of the clubs under the hbelous
guise of an American joke. They tell
dfithe cremation of a certain Yankee,
who, just before yielding up the ghost,
expressed the wish that his dead body
should be committed to the flames. Ac-
cordingly therefore the corpse was duly
conveyed to the crematory and, in the
presence of large concourse of be-
reaved friends, consigned to the glowing
chamber in the midst of the roaring fur
mace. The corpse had been in the fur
mace half an hour, when the sorrowing
friends, impelled by a morbid curiosity,
slyly opened the door and peered in to
see how the melancholy work of crema-
ton was progressing. Thereupon, to
the surprise of all, the corpse sat up in
the coffin, stark, blue and shivering, and
cried out: "Please shut that door-you
