CONGRESS- TO MOVE SLOW.
After Naming Committees it Will
Adjourn Till November.

Early Action Expected to Follow the
Reports Of the Committees-The
Committees to be Chosen. Those on
Ways and Means, Banking and
Currency, Elections and the Judi
ciary.
Washington, June 2O.-Hon. Benton
Mcmillan of Tennessee has been visiting
in Washington for some weeks, presum-
ably by invitation of the President with
whom he has had frequent consultations.
Last night he met the President at his
suburban home and the last of these
many consultations occurred To-day
MIR. Mcmillan stated to the MORNING
News correspondent that he did not
think the President entertained other
than conservative views on any question
and that the more he saw of the execu-
tive the more he felt impressed with the
strength of his character His policy
will be to call congress together in
September, when the two houses
will organize-and Mr.. Crisp will have no
opposition for speaker. Mr. McMillans
idea is that the committees on ways and
means, banking and currency, elections
and the judiciary will be named, and that
congress will then adjourn until some day
in November, when these committees will
be prepared to report and that early
action on their reports will follow The
financial programme laid down in the
Chicago platform will be lived up to-
viz: the repeal of the Sherman act and
the overthrow of the tax on state bank

The Pecos on a Boom,

Special to The Statesman
PECos, Tex, Aug. SIT has rained
necessarily today, and the Pecos river
is still booming east of the railroad
bridge. The railway track of the
Texas and Pacific company is washed
away half or three quarters of a mile,
and trains from the East cannot reach
us for several days. Reports of wash
outs also came from the West, SC
that Pecos city is completely shut
off from the outside World. The
damage done by the river, which Is
higher than ever known, to farms and
irrigation canals is very great, from
which it will take the valley some
time to recover. The high water from
the river has also damaged the track
of the Pecos Valley railroad and trains
will not arrive over the same for g
week perhaps.

1t is the only medicine that has been

A VESSEL LOOTED.
Natives Of Malaga Murder a Ships Crew
and Burn the Vessel.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. ga d.
vices by an Australian steamer state
that r port has reached Sydney that
a Queensland vessel while off the
coast of Malaga, Solomon islands, was
attacked and seized by the natives.
The white crew was killed and the
vessel first looted and then set on fire
and burned to the water's edge. The
first intimation of the affair was
brought to Noumea by the vessel
Lady Hanbyn, which had fallen into
company with another vessel which
had natives on board who were aware
of the circumstances.
The plan adopted by the chief az
Malaga was to decoy the vessel to a
certain place on the coast on promise
of supplying a number of recruits
This was done after he had os ensibly
shown his friendship by putting on
board number of natives. On the
arrival of the vessel at the rendezvous
she was surrounded by armed canoes,
and her crew quickly dispatched by
the combined fires of natives afloat
and those already taken aboard.

McElroy & Gilbert on the Condition o
the Market.
NEW ORLEANS. Aug. 8.-McElroy
& Gilbert say:
Futures-The market has been d
fluctuating one throughout the day,
but all with a downward tendency
after opening points it advanced Z,
out closed finally at the lowest of the
day. Spots were particularly weak,
the decline being 18c with sales Of
only 300 bales. The situation at this
moment is very preplexing one. So
much has been cabled to Liverpool
about the beneficial results of recent
rains that many are looking for a
heavy decline there on the reopening
tomorrow morning. On the other
hand the bureau report cannot
fail to give any unfavorable account
Prospects up to the first of
August We're so that it is extremely
difficult to form an idea of what may
be expected of the market with these
two opposing influences in the field.
News is being daily received of the APP
pearance of worms in numbers in
many sections, but in the present stu
alton of finances and with the pros
pect of au early movement OF the new
crop, such adviceS are diregarded just
as the damage from the Texas drouth
has been ignored. The outlook is GER
tainly not very encouraging for better
prices and we would be inclined to sell
on all snurts.

Down Its Working Force.
SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, Aug. 5.-The
Southern Pacific company in pursuing
it's policy of retrenchment has dis
charged 1000 employees, decreasing it's
monthly pay roll not less than $75, 900,
or at the rate of 5000, 900 annually. The
discharged men were on the Pacific
system or lines west of Ell Paso and
Olden and south OF Portland.
A reduction has also bee made in
the Atlantic system east of Ell Paso,
but just to what extent is not known
here. This Wholesale discharge of
employees is in addition to recent re-
duction of daily hours of labor in va
riOus shops OF the system. For some
time past nine hours day has been
the rule in these shops, the men al.
ways being paid by the hour. Now
they are working eight hours per day,
which is 10 per cent reduction in
time and is said to be equivalent to
the discharge of 900 men.

THE NATIONS WERE MAD,

OF LADY MANAGERS.
Charges Preferred Against the Chairman Of

Denials and Tears Galore-0ther

CHICAGO, Aug. s. The board
of lady managers INDUCED in
another decidedly unpleasant
wrangIe to-day. 1t lasted two
hours, and during that time many
unpleasant and disagreeable thing.
were said, tears were shed, and many
of the ladies gave vent to their feel
ings by kissing and uttering strange
noises.
Mrs. Ball of Delaware, secretary of
the committee on awards, read long
complaint against Mrs. Meredith,
chairman of the committee. She fire..
quently referred to Mrs. Meredith as
the arrogant chairman Of the commit
tee, and said that when che could not
attend she sent her sister to
act as Overseer, when her sis
ter had no right to seat in
the committee, At frequent intervals
the women expressed surprise loudly,
but the sensation came at last when
Mrs. Bail said: "And now in conclu-
sion desire to say that Mrs. Mere
dith is an arrogant, malicious, ungen-
erous, vindictive woman"
Before she had finished these exple-
tives half the women in the house
We're on their feet, many shrieking.
wildly, others Kissed and stamped
their feet, some wrung their hands in
despair. Mrs. Palmer used the gavel
vigorously and called in vain for
order, but the excited females paid no
heed to her.
"Take that back, take that back
take that back!" shrieked one large
woman.
"Put her out!" shrieked another,
and 80 pandemonium continued. Dur
ing all the uproar Mrs. Ball, who is a
pretty black-eye little woman, stood
perfectly calm and smiled sweetly on
the turbulent women who surrounded
her.
When at length order was restored
Mrs. Ball repeated the sentence. The
uproar was renewed and continued
for some time. Mrs. Ball then took
her seat and in an instant Mrs Mere.
9th was on the floor.
$50 far as any difference that exists
between Mrs. Ball and myself is con-
cerned," she began in tremulous
voice, 1--WE can settle it ouI selves, but
when she says 1 sent my sister to pre-.
side over the committee she tells that
which is absolutely false" Here the
speaker broke down and began to sob
Historically.
Then there came another scene of
wild confusion. Everybody wanted
to talk at once. Motions were made
by dozen, but nothing was done un-
til Mrs. Palmer, pale with excitement,
succeeded in restoring the meeting to
order.
Mrs. Ball got the floor again and said
she would retract the word "malic.
ious." Loud applause. Some one
moved that the entire proceedings be
expunged from the records and the
matter be laid on he table. Prevail
ed and the meeting adjourned.
