We hope it is true and that it will

that a convention of millionaires

they discussed such topics as
"How can we best use our surplus

try and the elevation of mankind?"
"What is tho millionaire's proper
attitude towards tho social prob

such convention might be held
for the millionaire is the one who
is TO determine what shall be done
with his money.

The people of Mclean county,
Illinois, have lately sent train
load of shelled corn to the famine
sufferers of Russia. That was a
fine thing TO do, TO be sure. II calls
TO mind the famous "grasshopper"
train which Wichita, Kansas, sent
to the Ohio valley in 1884. But
we think the Mclean county peo-
pie should have sent an instructor
along to teach the Muscovites the
uses they could make of the corn.
1t would be just like them TO think
that the only thing that could be
done with it was to parch it. OF
course, parched corn wouldn't be
so bad in n famine. But TO think
of the delight with which they
would receive the revelation Of
the different uses of corn--john-
nycake, griddle cakes, hominy,
pone, puddin' an milk, and-fried
mush 1t makes us sometimes
feel glad Columbus discovered
America, when we think what ben
efits the old world can receive
from the new in this respect. The
fact that European nations have
yet to learn in great measure the
merits Of corn, shows that this ls a

haPs the most prosperous year in
the history Of this country. So far
from being plunged into all the com
mercial and financial disasters
which the opponents Of the McKin-
ley bill predicted, all branches OF
business have been in flourishing
condition, and everybody has had
plenty to eat, plenty to wear, and
sufficient for other purposes. OF
course much Of this prosperity was
due to the very abundant haTvests
which were gathered, and for the
surplus of which there was an active
demand from Europe. Both our
exports and our imports were great.
ly increased, and there was a greater
demand for labor in consequence oi
the increased demand for product,
Of mills. which demand was in turn
due to increased tariff rates on these
products.

- Springer's free wool bill was under con-
Nslderation to-day by the Democratic ma
iority of the ways and means committee.
No conclusions was reached. The discus
sion was entirely harmonious. There is a
good deal of sentiment among the Demo-
cratic members of the committee in favor
of larger reductions in duties on wooden
manufactures than proposed by Springer's
bill. That bill made wool free and from
manufacture of wool took off what is
known as the compensatory or per pound
duties THAT is, duties given manufacturers
Reconsideration of the fact that they had
paid a duty on imported wooD The adj
valorem duties on wool manufacturers now
imposed under the Mckinley law, Springer
has left unchanged, so that the protective
duties as distinguished from compensation
duties remain the same.
Anumber of Democratic members of the
committee think the tariff on wool manu-
features should be reduced to at least the
rate proposed in the Mills bill. viz: 40 per
range is from IS to so per cent, averaging
somewhat more than the uniform rate on
wooden manufactures proposed by Mills. A
consideration of this'question involves the
consideration of the whole subject of the
tariff and cost of labor. etc.
There has been some discussion of the
proposition to fix the rate on wooden manu-
features on a sliding scale, like that pro-
posed in the Mckinley bill, rather than a
uniform rate. The committee will, how
ever, before it reaches any conclusion as to
whether the rate shall be lower than at
present aud whether uniform or varying,
obtain additional information bearing on
the question in all its phases
For this reason it is yet undetermined
whether or not the wool bill will be the first
tariff bill reported from the committee
Should other bills, which are of less
complicated nature, such as that relating to
binding Irvine and free lumber, be ready for
action by the committe it may be decided
than the wool bill, and give additional time
to preparation of this measure. The whole
question is still open,2

The committee on finance has resolved to
grapple with the subject of free coinage OF
Silver At meeting of the committee this
morning there was discussion of the mat
ter. aud It was decided that the issue had
better be met at once, SO that the committee
would not be charged with smothering a
bill relating to free coinage, Accordinly it
was resolved that at the meeting next
Tuesday the Stewart free coinage bill be
taken up. and be reported to the senate.
There IS little doubt as 70 the nature of the
report for the discussion this morning
showed that two Democratic senators
would. probably join with the Republican
majority in recommending adverse action
upon the bill.

leges and elections made a report in the

Watson's motion calling for Investigation
Of the Pinkerton system, which has
caused considerable agitation especially in
Farmers Alliance circles, has at the request
of Oates, the chairman of the sub-com-
mittee which reported the resolution ad-
versely to the judiciary committee of the
house, been reccmmitted to the sub-com-
mittee for further action. This was done by
the committee to-day. Oates says he has
been going slow IN the matter for the reason
he wishes to ascertain whether or not
congress has jurisdiction. If from
the nature of corporations it
should be found that congress can legislate
with respect to the Pinkerton system and
that it is not matter with which states and
municipalities alone can deal, he says there
may be reason TO recommend an investiga-
ton but unless congress has the power to
legislate and remedy the abuses
it may find to exist it was not
IT'S business to make an investigation.
Oates asked Watson to,produce the charter
OF the Pinkerton corporation, but that gen
tleman was unable to do so. Oates has
since obtained copy of the charter, and it
is now before the committee for examina-
ton

The house is being treated to daily remind
ers Of the Hoar- Morse rivalry in the state
OF Massachusetts Hoar, although DEM
ocrat, is the son of the dis
Grant administration and q nephew
of the present senator. That member Of
such 4 distinguished Republican family
should be Democrat is an offense which
Hoar insists has never been
quite forgiven by the leading
Republicans, and is the cause Of
the somewhat frequent political assaults
proceedings of yesterday been read
from the Congressional Record this
morning by members of the house
before Morse arose to a question of
privilege and rebuked Hoar for presuming
yesterday to take from the public printer
of the record a manuscript speech previ-
ously made by Mr.. Morse. There was dead
silence for a minute as the house awaited a
response by Hoar.

gentleman from Massachusetts has

took his seat.

The jolly Little oueen of the Stage viii
. Appear Tonight.

Corinne will be seen at the opera house
tonight tomorrow matinee and tomorrow
night as ''Carmencitan in Mrs Jennie
Kimball's SEQ, COO production of the spectac-
ular operate comedy, Carmen Up to
Data"
The Kimball opera comique company
numbers sixty persons, and the critics OF
the East and West unite in saying that it is
the strongest musical organization on the
road
The chorus is one of unusual excellence.
The production of Carmen Up to Data"is,
in its entirety, perfect in detail and execu-
ton.
The Houston Post says:
a spectacular comic opera burlesque IS
something new under the sun in Texas, at
least We have had grand opera, comic
opera and buriesoue. but this is the first
time we have had all three combined in
one, and the Kimball opera comique and
burlesque company and the peerless.
Coriune are to be congratulated on the
pronounced success which attended their
first performance of Carmen Up TO Data
In Houston.
If there were any who failed to thor
oughly enjoy the performance last night the
fault was with themselves. 1t could not
have been with the performance, for there
was such a variety as must have pleased
every taste. II appealed to the eye as well
as the ear, for it was full of color, full of
beauty in gorgeous costumes and pretty
faI IeaIf grace, in movement and the poetry
of poses. It was rich in witty dialogue and
jeu d esprit, in vocal melody and roaring
farce comedy, or, rather, burlesque, and
during the entire three acts of conglomerate
music, dancing and fun, there was not
single dull moment
This is Corinne's first visit to Texas and.
her first since her childhood to the South.
Her name, however, was quite familiar, as
She had won reputation wide as the coun-
try long before she had passed into her
teens, which she has not yet passed out Of
She made her first appearance as Little
Buttercup IN Pinafore at the age of six and
afterwards won great favor in various other
comic opera roles. She is wonderful, YER
saile, singing an aria from the opera and
topical song with equal ease and dancing
and posing Ia Carmencita with wonderful
grace and elasticity. 1t is small wonder
that one of so many and varied accomplish
ments should have been voted =" queen of
the stage y as she was in New York.
Mr.. Charles Fostelle as u rival of Carmen
made up admirably and personated femin-
Unity in d ludicrously eXtravagant but most
entertaining manner, I'D the comedians,
Messrs. Lester and PGsey, were very
funny
Mr.. Bernard Dyllyn as the Toreador fully
sustained the reputation which had pre-
cedcd him. he possesses a baritone voice
OF rare sweetness and strength, which was
displayed TO excellent advantage in the
''Song Of the Toreador,n in which he re-
ceived q double encore.
The chorus, which numbered about
thirty voices, was strong ana well trained.
Taken altogether, the performance was
the best of its kind that has been seen in
Houston for very long while.
