istration.
BRUSSELS, December lS.-After M. Di-
renzi's motion had been proposed at the
Monetary Conference yesterday, Senator
Allison made short speech ia behalf OF
the United States delegation. He laid enl-
phasis upon the fact that throughout the
debate nobody had suggested that either Of
the money metals be discarded. During
the adjournment, he said, the delegates
would have time TO study the Rothchild
and other proposals that had been made.
He said: "rhe discussions that have taken
place have been Of great value, and we
think il wise to resume deliberations after
q recess. ANY agreement at which the con-
ference might arrive would probaly
require large concessions on our part.
IL is, therefore, natural that the Demo
cratic administration which is about to
come into Office in the United States, and
upou which the responsibility for such
action would fall, should have an opportu-
nitv TO direct the course OF the United
States delegates. 1t would consequently
be advantageous to the United States if
the conference should adjourn long enough
to enable the new government TO consider
what shall be done.n
Mr. Bertram Currie, Of the British dele
CATION, objected to the reassembling of the
conference. on the ground that as three
previous monetary conferences, there was
little prospect of the present one being
success.

The steamer started through on the
left of the central pier, but as it neartd
an effort was made to throw it to the

current and thrown sidewise against
the pier. There was a terrible crash
and the steamer was broken asunder
and slowly settled to the bottom
There was no one on board except
the crew consisting of about fifteen
persons. These were panic stricken,
and the ten LegrO roustabUuts were
frenzied with fear. Assistance was
promptly rendered and in a few mo,

Last week we called the attention
Of tax payers TO the fact that the col

years. OF course if the tax payer
pays whatever iB demanded of HIN
he cannot afterWard come IN and
claim rebate.
THIS week we have seen two re.
Ceipis issHed in direct violation Of
law. The law requires that the tax
collector shall issue receipt for each
years taxes, showing the year for
which it Is paid, the amount Of the
tax, the other items such as interest,
costs, ETC., and on the back Of the
receipt shall be described the property
on which the tax is paid; but the
receipts show nothing, to,wit:
