NICARAGUA CANAL BILL.
Features OF the New Measure to Be
Reported by Senator Sherman.

Reported by Senator Sherman.
WAsHTS6ToS City, Dec. ola new Mic
aragua canal bill to be reported by Senator
Sherman is drawn on substantially the
same lines as the bill reported from the
committee to the last congress, including.
as it does. the proposition to guarantee the
bonds of the company to the extent Of
$i0O, 600, 600 to aid the construction of the
canal. The new bill. however, contains
SEINE additions, which increase the obIiga-
tons Of the company as well as the secur-
ity of the government. For instance, the
real and personal property of the company
are included in the liabilities. 1t is pro-
yided hat all stock heretofore subscribed
for or issued shall be called in and can
celled; all bonds issued redeemed and
cancelled. and all outstanding obligations
satisfied before the act takes effect.
The bonds are to be issued in January.
1893, and mature in 1858. but they are
also made redeemabie at the pleasure of
the United States after 1913. The section
requiring the company TO execute n mort
gage 10 the United States as security for
the guarantee is amended by the addition
of q clause requiring the mortgage 20 con-
tain q provision for a sinking fund for
payment of the bonds at maturity. II the
company eIaufLs IN the payment OF inter-
est. or in other respects. before the canal
is put in operation, the right of foreclosure
shall at once attach in favor of the United
States. The bill excludes from expendi-
lures that may be taken in account the
consideration paid or agreed TO be paid -
the Nicaragua Construction Company and
other parties for expenditures by them
and for the concessions to Nicaragua and
Costa Rica, and the total mount, princi-
pal and interest, of the bonds that NAV be
issued for the first payment is fixed at
$1,000 900 instead OF S4,0oo,0 DOC, Is in the
original bill. Perhaps the most i'm
nartant changes in the bill are those
made in the section relative To the issue of
stock. In the new bill this is limited TO
Stno, onn,U COO. 100000 to be retained
by the company, the amount stip-
gIated to be delivered to the gov
ernments Of Nicaragua and Costa
Rica according TO The concessions.

The New Warshipa.

WASHINGTON CRY, Dec. 21.-ISpecial.E
Senator Squire called at the navy depart
ment this afternoon, accompanied by Sena-
tor Blackburn, to see if it could legally be
arranged that one of the two new war

SEN ator Squire thinks that matters can be
so arranged that Pacific coast contractors
able to do this kind of work can bid upon
the contracts. If his plan is followed one
of the new warships will probably be built
at San Francisco.
Bids were opened at the navy depart
ment today for the construction of an iron
and steel pier at the United States coaling
station in the harbor of Pago Page. Samoa.
The two lowest bids were the Coronado
Foundry Company, of San Diego, CAL,

pany. SSS. 900.

A LONG WANT FILLED
Our First Week Over With .
Roaring Success.

Just one week ago we opened our doors to the puhli.
and it did not take very long to find out what the general
feeling OF the public was. Hardly had the door been opened
when the rush began, and it seems as though there was M
let up to it. Everyone seems to be happily surprised at
the immense assortment of holiday goods which are mag.
%nlhcently displayed at the various counters, and especiany
at such low prices as they are marked. We are now na.
pared to wait on everyone and give them new goods at the
very lowest market price. 1t is our intention from now an
to keep anything and everything in the dry goods line which
our customers may possibly ask for. A visit to the ston
will convince you of the above facts in every instance. 4,
everything is entirely new and our PRICES ARE THR
LOWEST.

PORTLAND, Dec. 21.-TSpecial. 1EArch-
bishop Gross, who has just returned from

The archbishops OF the United States meet

In New YORK, Monsignor Satolii came before US
and, showing his papers as representative of
his holiness at the Worlds fair. said he wished
to speak to US on the school question, on which
he represented. he claimed, the views of the
pope. OF course We heard him. His
views seemed to embody the Faribault
plan. Much to our surprise, the monsignor said
he did not come to discuss the question. but to
get our signatures to his fourteen propositions.
After hearing them carefully and celebrating on
them in perfect harmony. all but his grace of
st Paul most respectfully declined to adopt them,
and We then passed resolutions indorsing
our parochial schools as ordered by the council
of Baltimore. So Monsignor Satolli's PROPOSE.
lions were rejected after a long but entirely
harmonious discussion. TIL idea that there
IS any dissension between the arch
bishops. and that there was wrangliug, is
falae. All know that his grace of st.
Paul, eminent in ability and holy in piety, diff
fered from US, but the difference was expressed
in reverence and piety. If Mgr. satoili had
papers to settle the school question, he did
not produce them, and although that
distinguished eccle.iastlc claimed to repre-.
sent the pope on that issue, he did
not display any papers as to that authority.
Each. archbishop said he had consulted his suf-
fragans as to the parochial schoo Q question,
and all were unanimous in favor OF the system
as prescribed by the council of Baltimore.
His grace OF st. Paul said he had not obtained
the opinion Of his sufragans on the issue. Mon
signor Satolli did not preside at the meeting.
but the archbishop OF Baltimore, Cardinal Glib
bons, by virtue of custom and respect to the
Oldest see in America.
No.; it was a complete vindication of the
parochial system in every respect, and the har-
mony OF the hierarchy on the question was a
grand tribute to their loyalty to the faithful
who had built and maintained our Catholic
schools.
