ANNUAL JANUARY SALE
Or Muslin UxpERwEaa.

Notwithstanding the rain Of last Sat-
urdsy the opening day Of our January
sale Of Muslin Underwear was an i'm
rnense success. Buyers were de-
lighted with the extraordinary bar
gain offered. 1t will pay you to an
ticipate your muslin underwear wants
for a year to come. for it is safe to say
that no such Bargains will be offered
again this year.
There are many reasons why you
should buy Muslin Underwear in JAN
uary.
New muslin Is warmer than old. In
buying now you get the benefit Of the
warmth Of the new muslin. and as the
muslin thins out with constant wash
ing you will have cooler garments for
spring and summer. We desire that
you examine this Underwear closely.
Notice the excellent quality Of muslin
used Notice tie workmanship. the
button holes. the buttons, the finish
ing Of sleeves and other details Of man
uftcture which go to make our Under
wear superior to any in the city. and yet
us soIu al lower prices.
You can now distinguish the old
style Underwear as readily as you
can old-styie coats or cIoaks. The
new Underwear has high siesrss. the
Jokes are finished little differently.
and the cuff bands are gathered at the
sleeves. producing 4 neater effect.
Many Of these garments have been
marked exceedingly low especially for
This sale,as We are determined that this
January sale shall be the most memor-
abe one OF our business career. In one
or two instances The garments are
marked 4. exactly what We woulI have

The Dardanelles strait, being the n a.

SECRETARY BLAINE says and he cer-
tainly knows, that Notwithstanding the
numerous startling and alarming rumors
prevalent there are no new developments
in the Chilean difficulty. 1t is believed
that the synopsis of the report made OF
the investigation by the Chilean author
sites of the attack upon the sailors OF
the Baltimore, which was cabled to
number Of American newspapers, is cor
rect, but nothing eau be done until the
official report is received by the state
department, and if it comes by mail
which is probably owing to its length. 1T
may be several weeks before it gets here.
The indications now are that Chile will
decline to apologize, and if she does the
probabilities favor serious trouble, pos

SPEAKER CRIsP's committee assing
ments are still the principal topic of con-
versation among those interested in po
litical affairs. There is no denying that
there is much dissatisfaction liz the
speakers party, even more than was an
ticipated. The only people who are per-
fectly satisfied are those who favor the
free coinage of silver; they have all, and
more, thar they expected. Bland OF
Missouri, the chairman OF the coinage
committee, has been for quito while
the most ardent supporter of free coin
age on the democratic side of the house,
while the following members OF the com
mittee are known to favor it: Williams,
of Illinois; Kilgore of Texas; Robertson,
Louisiana; Pierce, of Tennessee; Epes,
of Virginia; McKeigban, independent
alliance), of Nebraska; Bartine of Ne
vsda and johnson of North Dakota.
Members of the committee opposed to
free coinage are: Tracy, of New York;
Williams, of Massachusetts,; Taylor, of
Illinois and Stone, of Pennsylvania.
With nine against four the free coinage
men confidently predict that free coin
age bill will be reported to the house
early in the session.
Putting Springer, of Illinois, at The
the head Of the ways and means COM
-, @ol, Mt
tempt will be made to formulate a new
tariff bill, and that the committee will
devote it's attention mostly to separate
measures for the repeal of single sections
Of the present tariff law.
Holman, of Indiana, being at the head
of the appropriation committee makes it
certain that retrencbment will be the
order OF the day in that committee, and
if the old practice of having all the ap-
preparation bills emanate from that COM.
mittee was now in vogue, this might
mean great deal, but when Mr.. Carlisle
was 5iected speaker Of the house over
Mr.. Randall, who was made chairman
Of the committee on appropriations, a
number of the regular appropriation
bills were taken from the committee, in
order to lessen the power of Mr.. Randall,
and gwen to The other com mittees, and
they have never been restored, so that
it is possible for extravagant appropria>
tions to be reported without the coLcur~
renee of the committee on appropria>
tions.
