"That will take, he continued, "the
control of cur finances out of the hands
of combination and monopoly. What
has been seen within the last few
weeks has not been creditable to the
country. The Secretary of the Treas

lators in stocks and grain in New York
to pay out every dollar of cash surplus
in the Treasury in order to save their
imaginary profits in speculation and
gambling"
The bill shutting the lotteries and

The Washington Navy Yard is be-

lively rate.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent.
Washington. Sent. %. 1890.

Washington, Sept. %, 1890.
Speaker Reed has been 80 badly
beaten at his own game by the demo-
Gratis of the House that he offered
through one of his minions to agree
that no more democrats should be un.
seated at this session if the democrats
would stay in their seats to make a
quorum. 1t is unnecessary to say that
the offer was rejected-the democrats
will make no bargain with Reed. The
offer was not made until the Speaker
found oat that he could not force the
democrats to stay in the House, not
even by locking them up, and Repre-
sentative Kilgore had set an example by
kicking open locked door that every
democrat in the House was prepared
to follow if it became necessary to do
80 to get out of the chamber. A num-
Der of republican Representatives are
in hearty sympathy with the demo-
cratic efforts to prevent the uhseating
of two legally elected democrats in
favor of two negro contestants, but
they lack the courage of their collie ,gus
