Washington Notes.

The Cleveland anti-free coinage letter
was the absorbing topic Of public dis
cussion, during the latter part Of last week.
II seemed to have distracted the whole
Democratic party.
The course Of the two Pennsylvania
Senators is being watched closely by the
politicians. 1t Is understood that Quay
was really with Cameron in his attitude on
the Elections bill, President Harrison ID
giving them both the cold shoulder, and
they retaliated by "tieing-up" his nomi.
nation for postmaster at Reading.
In the National Rep. Committee there ia
a strong feeling against both Quay and
Dudley.
Five of the departments at the National
Capital were drsped in mourning Last
Saturday, the navy department for eI'
Secretary Bancroft and for Admiral Porter
the treasury department for Secretary
Window; the interior department for ex
Secretary Stuart; tho war for General
Sherman, and the department of Justice
for ex- atty General Devens.

ALTHOUGH tin plates are one-fifth higher
than they were last summer, yet American
skill and ingenuity has brought down the
price Of the cans made from those plates so
that the cans which sold for 20 q hundred
in Baltimore, the center Of the canning in
dustry last summer before the Mckinley
bill passed now sell for ~ q hundred. So
viii IL be with the tin plates themselves
when American workingmen "get their

On Thursday Of last week Senator Lee
appeared before the Committee on corpor.
ations. and produced figures to show that
1t costs no more than cents per barrel to
collect and transport oil for distance o.
so miles or less. The Burdick bill allow
double that rate Of compensation. 1t wa
shown, In the discussion Of the Billingsley
bill four years sgo, that under the agree
ment between the National Transit Com
pany and Tidewster Company they allow
each other 8 cents per barrel to cover tn,
cost Of such service, ,snd they are presumed
to know what It does cost.
A poll Of the Democratic members of the
House developed the fact that fifty nine o.
sixty-eight interviewed were favorable td
the denomination Of Cleyelsnd, four were
for Hill, two for Pattison, one for William
Whitney, one for John G. Carlisle. and one
was non-commital. The remaining eleven
members were not In their seats. In the
Senate six Democrats were absent. Two
Of these present would not announce Their
Presidential preference. Seven declared
for Cleveland, three for Pattison and one
for william T. Morrison. Several who
announced themselves for Cleveland favor
ed Pattison ss their second choice.
The contest at Harrisburg between the
old school, or sllopsthic doctors, and the
eclectics and homsopsths over the passage
Of medical bill by the Legislature, prom
ises to be an interesting one The home
opaths have submitted the draft Of bill Ia
establish o State Board of medical ex-
aminers and icenscrs and to define the
powers and duties Of such board. The
same has been done by the eclectics and
the allopsths. The bill Of the last named
gives the old school predominance in the
board, and provides thnt al applicants for
licenses to practice medicine must not only
be graduates Of somc medical school, but
must pass An examination before the board.
Az tho old school men would control the
board, this would operate TO exclude
representatives of the other schools. Hence
the present contention.
Governor PAttiscn sent communication
TO the Legislature last week giving state.
ment Of the deficiency in the Adjutsnt
Generals department. The total amount
is I0,3l7.6e. He called attention to the
fact that there has been no specific appro-
priations for the National Guard since 1887
the annual appropriation OF $500 900 n year
being continuous. He thought this system
pernicious and recommended ,hat-first.
that an appropriation bo made for the
existing deficiency and to meet all other
expenses which may be incurred before
June Ist 1901; second, that the Legislature
make a specific appropriation for the
annual current expenses of the National
Guard for the fiscal years beginning June
Lat, 1891 and 1892; third, that such enact.
ment be made that o uniform system Of
auditing public accounts be provided 30
that all warrants upon the treasury for the
payment Of public moneys be drawn by the
Auditor General, and records of the same
be made In his department. The COM
munication was referred to the Committee
on Military Affairs.
