WORK OF THE HOUSE.
The Little Urgent Deficiency Bill
Finally Passed.


Washington, Dec. 2O.-There was an
evidence of relief from an intense strain
in the House to-day. There was very
slim attendance Of members on the floor
and in the galleries, and there was an alb
sence of that look of anxious expectation
which was to be seen on every face when
the House met yesterday.
The journal of yesterday took an un-
usually long time to read on account of
the hlibustering taCtics Of yesterday, and
after the reading the House proceeded to
routine business.
Mr.. Hatch from the committee on agri-
culture moved that the committee on in
terstate and foreign commerce be dis
charged from the consideration of the
bill referred to il yesterday relative to
adulteration of food and drugs, and that
the bill be referred to the committee on
agriculture. On this motion the House
diVided-ayes 80. nays 16, no quorum.
MAKING UP DEFICIENCY.
Tellers were called for, but Mr.. Hatch
called for the yeas and nays, pending
which both motions were temporarily
withdrawn in favor of the conference re-
port on the little urgent deficiency bill,
which failed in the extra session. The
bone of contention in this bill was an
item of $22,0SS for the pay of clerks to
senator's and per diem employees of the
Senate during the recess of the Fifty-frst
congress in 1890. Mr.. Savers moved that
the House further insist on its disagree
ment to this item, but Mr.. Coombs moved
that the House recede. After hlibus-
tering debate Mr., COombs' motion pre-
vailed.
FoRD's THEATRE EMPLOYEES.
The Senate bill for the relief of the en-
ployes Of the record and pension division
of the surgeon generals office who were
injured in the Ford's theater disaster,
was passed.
The conference disagreements upon the
New York and New Jersey bridge bill
were gotten out of the way and the bill
was passed.
Committee reports were then called for,
and Mr.. Wheeler, of Alabama, from the
committee on territories, reported bill
to admit Oklahoma as a state.
THE HOLIDAY RECESS.
Mr. Cultivate, from the committee on
rules, reported a Joint resolution that
when congress adjourned on Thursday.
Dec. 81, it be until Wednesday, Jan. 3,
1894. The resolution was agreed TO and
was Immediately sent to the Senate, and
when it came back from that body II was
found that the enrolling clerk had made
it read Monday, instead of Wednesday,
and the Senate had amended it so as TO
make 1t correct. The speaker said the
House could not agree to the Senate
because the House had passed
il in the proper shape and that the en-
rolling clerk would have to make another
copy and send il to the Senate. Before
any action was taken in regard to this
matter the House, at o. clock, adjourned

prlety, under the circumstances OF
increasing taxes upon distilled spirits cigars
ana cigarettes. and the imposition OF new
taxes at reasonable rate upon playing cards
ana cosmetics and perfumeries, will not,
think. be seriously questioned, except by
some OF the producers of these articles. who
constitute comparatively small part Of the
people
The secretary expresses views especially
favorable TO the taxation Of legacies, sue
cesslons and incomes derived from invest
ments.
ECONOMY THE wAToHwoRp.
A policy of the strictest economy in
public expenditures, Mr.. Carlisle says, is
q logical sequence Of the financial situa-
tion. He says:
Genuine economy and frugality can be Sc
cured only by the repeal OF statutes author
lElng or requiring unnecessary expenditures,
ana the refusal to enact new laws creating
oharges against the treasury for purposes OF
doubtful utility, and although such a policy
Will probably be vigorously opposed by pow
erful Influences more or less dependent upon
the patronage OF the government for support.
ana oy local institutions seeking legislative
favors, II is evident that It must be adopted
ana adhered TO II any substantial result is TO
be accomplished.
In regard to the customs administra-
tion he expresses the opinion that the
service would be improved, and the
revenue collected with much less expense
amended as Is authorize the Secretary of
the Treasury 10 reduce the number of
customs districts whenever in his opinion
the interests of the service demands, and
authorizing him to station proper Of
hcers wherever the necessities Of com
merce may require, with the power to
enter and clear vessels and to perform
similar duties connected with the navi-
CATION service.
OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS.
The secretary recommends additional
legislation for the enforcement OF the
Chinese exclusion laws; more vessels Tor
the revenue marine service; the extension
and better equipment of the lighthouse
and life saving service; the settlement Of
the Pacific railroad debt, and enlarge
ment of the facilities of the bureau Of en-
craving and printing. He suggests that
1t might be well for congress to consider
the advisability of having the postage
stamps and postal notes printed in this
bureau.
On the subject OF the sugar bounty,
the secretary simply says: II respect
fully call attention TO the various recon-
mendations contained in the report of the
commission of internal revenue and ask
their favorable consideration by con
gress"
In regard TO the condition OF affairs
in the sea islands of South Carolina, Sec
retary Carlisle only refers to the work
done by the marine hospital service, and
adds: This work, purely of a sanitary
nature, is to be supplemented by the eff
forts of the Red Cross Society in relieving
the physical necessities of the people,

committee, but there were appropriations
which were absolutely essential and nee
essary-such as the item to carry on the
public printing.
The bill having been read, MIR. PETER
moved to strike out the paragraph allow
ing mileage to senators and members for
the present session.
AS was the case in the House yesterday,
there was long discussion over the prop
osition TO strike out the mileage appropri-
alton. This was advocated by Senators
George, Bate, Mcpherson, and Coke on
the general ground that the mileage had
been drawn already, and therefore this
second appropriation was illegal.
Messrs. Harris, Cockreli, German,
White, and Manderson defended the APP
preparation as being just and strictly
within the law
The motion to strike out the mileage
clause was rejected, yeas 10, nays Al.
The bill was then passed.
THE NICARAGUA CANAL.
The resolution offered yesterday by Mr..
Morgan for the appointment of a Joint
committee on the Nicaragua maritime
canal was then laid before the Senate.
and, with some notifications, was agreed
to. 1t provides for the appointment of a
committee of three senator's and three
representatives TO examine into and re
port upon the present condition of the
maritime canal Of Nicaragua, and the
prospect of the completion Of the work
under the control and with
the means to be raised by
the. company, and such other matters
connected with the construction and con-
troll of the canal as may better enable
congress to determine what legislation, if
any, is proper and necessary for the pro-
motion of the general welfare of the
people of the United States. The COM
mittee may sit during the session of con-
gress in the United States, and may pro-
ceed to Nicaragua and Costa Rica and
conduct its examinations. Provision is
made for necessary employees and for the
detail of one or more officers of the army
or navy TO assist the committee.
The conference report on the New
York and New Jersey bridge DILL
was laid before the Senate
and concurred in, so the bill, If signed by
the President, will become law.
A message from the House providing
for the holiday recess from tomorrow
till Jan. 8 was laid before the Senate,
and was agreed to, except that a blunder
in the House resolution was corrected by
making it read till Wednesday, Jan. 3,
1894, " instead of Monday, Jan, 3, 1894 {"
The Senate then after short execu-
tive session, at 4 AS o'clock, adjourned.

SPARKS OLD SCHEME.
A Deal With the Seaboard Air Line
Reported Contaminated.

Atlanta, Ga, Dec. 20.-A very impor-
tant railroad deal is reported here to have
been consummated by the Seaboard Air
Line, but the officials Of that road thus
far are reticent and neither confirm nor
deny The scheme is nothing less than
the old Sparks plan Of uniting the Geor-
gia Southern and Florida, Macon and
Northern and this Seaboard into one big
through line from Palatka to Ports
mouth, Va, there connecting with the
Old Dominion line of steamers to New
York. This would sidetrack Atlanta so
far as through freight Is con-
cerned, but be of great benefit to
Macon, Madison, Athens and and the
other points touched in Georgia and
cheaper rates, under the ''long haul''
clause Of the interstate commerce regula-
tions 1t was the announcement OF this
scheme, 10 will be remembered, that sent
Georgia Southern bonds bounding up
ward some years ago when President
Robinson, of the Seaboard, backed out
and the boom collapsed disastrously to so
many Macon stockholders. The report
that the Seaboard has now secured con
trolling interest in the other two lines is
credited here among railroad men as well
as by the public.
TIE STORY DENIED.
Dispatches received here late tonight
from Baltimore and Macon deny the re-
ported absorption Of the Georgia Southern
and Florida by the Seaboard Air Line.
Receiver Sparks and Skipwith Wilmer,
attorney for the first mortgage bondhold-
ers, are quoted TO this effect, the latter
stating that there are no negotiations
ahoat whatever looking TO such consol-
fdation

A LOST CHILD FOUND.
She Was Pat in Convent Instead OF
Being Taken to an Aunt.

st. Augustine, Fla, Dec. 2O.-Mrs.
Elizabeth Cook, of Dade City, while
searching for her 7-year-old daughter,
saw her last Sunday for the first time
since last March, as the sisters and chill
dren Of st. JOseph's convent were going
to the cathedral. In March, L. A. Miller,
OF Dade City, was instructed TO take the
child TO Mrs. Cooks sister, at Tampa,
but instead brought her here and placed
her in the care of the mother superior as
Lula Miller, cautioning that she should
correspond with him only. Mrs. Cook
learning that Lula had not been taken as
supposed, to Tampa, endeavored TO find
her whereabouts from Miller, who said
she was in convent at Jacksonville.
This Mrs. Cook fond true, as inquiries
at that institution 1roved in August. She
came here. and mother and child greeted
each other as stated above. The mother
superior only knowing the child as Lula
Miller properly required some proof that
she was Mrs. Cooks child. This was es-
tablished to-day by evidence taken by
Judge M. X. Cooper, who had issued q
writ Of habeas corpus for the child, the
Judge having postponed the hearing
twenty-four hours for Miller 10 come.
Being satisfied of Mrs. Cooks identity he
ordered Lula delivered to her The
mother and child left for home to-day.

REPEAL OF THE BANK TAX.
The House Committee Not to Act Un
til After the Recess,

Washington, Dec. 20.-A resolution was
passed to-day that congress adjourn to-
morrow until Wednesday, Jan. 8. This
will prevent the meeting of the commit
tee on banking and currency Friday,
when the members hoped to get together
and report bill repeating the state bank
tax. They will, however, meet on Fri
day, Jan. s. and will probably make re-
port on that day. The fight in the COM
mittee is whether an unconditional repeal
bill or conditional repeal bill shall be
reported.
A majority of the democrats on the
committee favor repeal of the tax and
leaving the states to manage the matter
as the states think proper. Those advo-
eating this idea, of course, assert that
they are squarely on the platform Of
their party, but at the same time, some
OF them will support repeal with limi-
tationS rather than lose the
whole principle Other democrats are
opposed to any repeal of any character,
and others are for the repeal with limita-
tions, so the difficulties are apparent.
When there is such difference of opin-
ion 1T is impossible to tell what will be
the result. At present the committee has
been absolutely unable 10 reach a conclu-
sion, and it appears that the House will
have to settle the question

METEOR OR COMET.
A Curious Phenomenon Seen in the
Heavens in North Carolina.

6SdNoAS III NOTSn OArOl1uA.
Wilmington, N c., Dec. 2O.-A curious
phenomenon was seen in the heavens
here this morning from $3.50 to 7:3O
o'clock. 1t made magnificent display,
but no one seems able to determine Just
what it was, some describing it as me-
teor and others as a comet One eye
witness says it had the appearance of a
large star with tail, which to the naked
eye seemed about 100 yards long. The
business end of it finally burst, leaving q
trail of fire behind of many and beautiful
cOlors.
One colored astronomer says he saw
the letters "W. W." distinctly outlined,
while another AYERS that the word pre-
pare" was there plain as day.

Raleigh, N. c., Dec. 20.-Passengers on
the train near Burlington saw an unusual
phenomenon in the western sky this

in the heavens. At $40 it was
seen at Raleigh, but then it
was not so brilliant or lum inous

CoRBETT CONFIDENT.
Brady Thinks Mitchell Has no Expec-
tation of Winning.

Atlanta, Ga, Dec. 20.-William A.
Brady, Pugilist Corbett's manager and
hacker, passed through here to-day. lie
reported Corbett confident and said
Mitchell, in his opinion, had no expecta-
tion of winning the fight, but was after
such money as he could make out of it.
He told just how Corbett spends his
hours training at Mayport, Fla, and
told how Mrs. Wallace, rich
widow, admired the brawny champion
so much after reading of his exploits in
the newspapers, that just as soon as he
reached Mayport she bundled out of her
home and gave it up to his use. Brady
says that Corbett, though working dill
gently, is Ehaving,a royal good time, with
every luxury at his disposal. The mana
ger believes that the Jacksonville people
are so anxious for the battle that if the
councils resolution to permit the fight to
come off should be vetoed by the mayor,
it would be passed over his head.

tain how the business of the two firms
stands. Judge Sweat appointed d. II.

Augusta, Ga, Dec. 20.-The Red Cross
Society has hit upon novel and practical
way Of aiding the destitute of the sea
islands Of South Carolina. There the
people are still suffering from the effects
Of the August storm, and are unable to
help themselves. The Red Cross Society
proposes TO put all able men to work in
the large timber tracts near them, and
the people of Augusta and other cities and
towns about. here are asked to buy the
wood. 1t is believed this will be done
readily. The Port Royal railroad will
haul the wood at very low rate.
