WHAT THEY PROPOSE.
Republican Plans TO Pass the Bayonei
Hill

WASHINGTON. Jan. At begins TO be
apparent that the present unsatisfactory
state Of affairs in the senate must soon
be terminated. Fifty working days will
end the life OF the Fifty-flrst congress.
The first Of the regular annual appropri-
alton bills remains TO be acted upon by
the senate. The feeling OF impatience
which This condition OF public business
aroused has gathered strength every day.
The significant remarks uttered In de-
bate last week by senators OF recognized
influence appears to have had the effect
of bringing the senate nearer TO change
OF the programme that has held sway
since congress met in December last.
A caucus OF republican senators is TO be
held probably Monday evening, and il is
confidently expected by most OF the re-
publican senators that, as n result OF IL,
before the week expires the crisis will
have been carried with respect 20 the
elections bill and the senate will have ar.
rived at clear understanding Of what
course il is to pursue, for the remainder
Of the session.
The lines OF battle are narrowing and
there is gathering Of the forces. The
absent republican senators have
been requested TO return, and
preparations are making on both sides OF
the chamber for the final struggle. A
part OF the campaign, II Is believed, will
be series Of night sessions, designed 10
test the efficiency Of old methods in pass
ing bill obnoxious 20 the minority as
well as TO secure the adoption OF the
cloture rule, IL IL be decided 20 press this
measure. II Is expected, however. that
this order will not be made before Tues
day, as a night session Monday would in
terfere with the desired caucus.
In the house tomorrow is "individual
suspension day." "and the members will bs
given an opportunity 10 pass measures o'
local interest.
Chairman Farquhar will call up the
shipping bill Tuesday. Its friends pur
pose TO allow two days for the considera
ton, but determined effort will be mad,
by the opposition 10 defer final action OF
the bill as long as possible in the hope oI
defeating il in this manner, without run
ming the risk OF final vote on the pas
sage Of the bill.
There is prospect that the considers
ton Of the shipping bill may be antaeon
ized by the appropriation bills ant
that the former measure may not secur,
the floor. Friday will be devoted TO bill
on the private calendar. Ii is expected
TO fill In any time during the week not de
voted TO the shipping bill to special or
ders with appropriation bills, four o.
which are on the calendar awaiting con
sideration, Chairman Cutcheon, Of th,

WAR IN THE CAROLINE ISLANDS.
Natives Driven 10 Despair Follow the
Example of Our Indians.

SAN Francisco, Jan. 4.-Late advices
from the Caroline islands state that an era
Of insursction and bloodshed has set In
among the natives and Spanish troops
quartered in this group. Admiral Bel
knap has dispatched the crusier Alliance
to Polapi 10 protect the American mis-
sionarles, whose lives and property are
threatened. II is not merely the Ameri-
can residents who are threatened, but
every white person ON the island. and the
Spaniards in particular are fearful OF
having their property taken and Of being
murdered.
A traveller named Anderson returned 10
Joliet, in the Marshal group, and brings
the startling intelligence of the extent OF
the trouble and Its causes. He says the
natives did not object 10 the coming OF
the Spaniards until the latter managed 20
induce Spain TO proclaim a protectorate
over the group. Recently the Spanish Of
ficials increased the native taxation
which was always repugnant feature OF
their administration. The natives refus-
ing to pay this new levy was the leading
cause OF the existing troubles.
Moreover the troops on the islands are
in many instances drunken riotous
mob.
The natives armed themselves and had
several sharp engagements with the
Spaniards. They were cut down by gat-
ling guns and retired into the bush coun-
try. The Spanish soldiers followed and
were in turn decimated by the hidden
enemy. A war cry against the whites has
been sounded through all the islands.

abou, 10 per cent. Of the former annual
averages.

still and see people wear their
old coats simply Aeause they

bound to have cold weather later
on. We must therefore offer in

and we do.
We have gone through our
stock of overcoats and cut them
deep. Cut out the profit en-
tirely and into the cost. In fact
we do not reckon the cost at all.
We do not offer a fake discount

but we show you the original cost
of the goods and then the price

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan. 4.-The United

THOUGHT It MEANT HIM,
Attorney Shannon, Of Butte, Sent to
Jail for Writing q
Card.
The Police Magistrate Imagined 1t
Was in Contempt of His
Court.
A Decision In tho Case Of Wl,aIen & Grant
and the school
Trustees.

The supreme court rendered n decision
Yesterday in n Butte contempt case. At
torney j. w. Shannon, of that city, pub
l,shed a card in the Miner on June 90, in
which he criticized the city ordinances gov
erning police magistrate and Justices
courts. One OF the sentences in his card
read: "Why not modify our ordinances SO
that tho court and prosecuting attorney
shall no be interested In their own convic-
tions?" shannon was fined $50 and costs,
md sent to Jail in default. He applied to
the supreme court for II writ of habeas cor
rus to secure his ~relense, which WIS
granted yesterday. In passing upon the case
the court said:
$50 far as the article in question refers
to any particular case, it refers to one de-
termined in the district court. Viewing
tho contents Of this publication alone. free
from any knowledge of local events which
might possibly direct the course OF
imagination, we are struck with
surprise, that the honorable police magis-
trate entertained an affidavit which declares
tina the publication was a 'contemptuous
and insolent, article concerning the pro-
ceedings and practice in his honorable
court. The article is directed against a sys-
tem and AYERS that abuses have prevailed
unner such systems and proposes a change.
to remove temptations which invite abuse.
But it does not follow that there may not
be az pure an administration OF justice in
said police court under the present police
magistrate. as ever will, or could be, under
any other system, although the present sys-
tenn may not be the best and even tend to
invite abuse. We are therefore surprised
that the magistrate so readily adopted the
conclusion that the article referred
to the practices and proceedings
in his court. Nevertheless if the article
had expressly referred to past pro
seedlings and practices of said court
under the present magistrate this proceed
ing and summary punishment would not
apply. If the article was libelous there are
remedies; and ii may be observed, more
over, that summary punishment for con-
tempt in such a case is no vindlcation of
past practice and proceedings of courts, no
moro than lnshes vindicate the cause relied
on to Justify the chastisement. 1t is ordered
tha the writ of habeas corpus issue. and If
the imprisonment is found to be based up
on the proceedings set forth in the applica-
ton the prisoner will be summarily dis
charged" The opinion is by Assooiate
Justice De Witt, the other judges con-
Ourriup. -
