sideration of two conference reports
those on the urgent deficiency for last
session and the New York and New
Jersey bridge bill preparatory to the
adjournment for the Holiday recess
tomorrow. Both reports were agreed
to after some very lively speeches. The
deficiency bill called fortha very bit

wanton extravaganza. The bridge

orously opposed by Mr. Cummings

Considered.
WASHINGTON, December, 20'-The
Hawaiian question was disposed of
for the present in the Senate today,
when after MIR. Hoar's argument the
message and accompanying documents
were referred to the committe or for
eign Relations. Later in the day by
resolutions offered by the chairman of
the committee on Foreign relations
that committe was directed to inquire
and report whether, and if so what ir-
regulsrities have occurred in the diplo-
matte o. other intercourse between
the United States aud Hawaii IN reIa-
tion to the recent revolution in those
islands. The resolution for Joint

House resolution for holiday re-
cess Of Congress from tomorrow until
Jan 3, 1894.
Mr.. Hoar presented a unique petit
ton on the subject of good roads.
The petition which he said was signed
by about 10000 citizens of the Unit
ed States for the establishment of
a department of roads as a department
of executive administration in the nat
iOnal government was wound on TWO
immense rolls which were supported
by wooden and iron frames ten feet
high. 1t required the efforts of
several employees to wheel the I'M
mensc petition into the Senate cham
ber.
The petition was referred to
the Committee on Interstate Com
mcrce.
Mr., Cockrill introduced a bill to Sc
cure aerial navigation, and added that
that if that cou d not be secured it
would dispense with the necessity
of so many good roads, Laugh

After u characteristic speech by
Granny Hoar' in which bitter inyec-
tive and partisan hatred were the
chief elements levelled, at every thing
Democratic and at the present admin
istration, in particular, with the Ha-
waiian matter as basis of argument,
all business was disposed Of by the fol-
lowing resolution, from chairman Nor
gan, Of the Foreign Relations commit
tee:
Resolved that the committe on for
eign Relations shall inquire and report
whether, and if so, what irregularities
have occurred in the diplomatic or
other intercourse between the United

recent political revolution IN Hawaii
and to this end said committee is au-
thorized to send for persons and pap
ers, and to administer oaths to Witness

Mr.. Morgan explained the purpose
of his resolution, which was to have a
settlement of the charges make against
this and the former administration re-
gardiug their Hawaiian policy.
Mr.. Call took occasion to say that
he regarded the Presidents message
as an exceedingly able State paper and
the Presidents course met with his
entire approval.

Where WakeiuIncss has It's Birth.

Intelligent physicians are regarding
with an eye less and less favorable the
use of narcotics. While these are used
in extreme cases to afford greatly
needed temporary relief, professional
efforts are far more generally direct
ed now u days than formerly to means
of buildingup the nervous system at
the basis of its quietude. This is one
reason why Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters has received the sanction of ply
siciaus as a nervine tonic, Indigestion
unrelieved is the fruitful father of in
somnia, and the relief of the parent
malady by the Bitters is usually fol-
lowed by a return 10 tranquil sleep.
Overwork, mental anxiety, sedentary
habits impair digestion and weaken
the nerves. The bitters strengthens
them by renewing the ability to digest
and assimilatc the food Besides this

PORTLAND HARBoR,
Work of the Commission on Harbor
Lines.

There has been some correspondence
recently between the Harbor Commits
sioners and Colonel Hams of the United
States Engineers, relating to some
changes and improvements oa the Cape
Elizabeth side of the harbor. From this
correspondence it appears that when the
original harbor lines wcse established in
1854 no attention, so far as known, was
the dific llties that called the commits
sion together were on this, or the city
side. This commission was composed of
General Totten, Professor Bache and
Admiral Davis. In the several reports
made by this commission during and on
the completion of their labors, no men
ton is made of the line on that side of
the harbor, whistler the line drawn on
the map, made at the time, was drawn
nv this commission or was drawn subse-
Aquently to complete the boundaries of
the harbor, so that it might be defined in
the statute fixing the lines, is not now
known. The line then, as now, was
drawn from the solid abutment of the
Cape Elizabeth bridge to the end of the
breakwater, the two outermost points
on that side of the harbor. 1t has often
been observed that this line, as it ap-
proaches the breakwater, draws too near
to the shore. The harbor commissioners
f1,af ho art IF fhfc
line might be set out go or 10 feet, while
Colonel Hams sees no objection to set
ting it out 100 feet. There is no occasion
or desire to advance the whole length of
this line, but where the point Of depart
ure shall be must be left for future con-
sideration. Colonel Hams does not
think that the United States Government
is authorized, under the act Of Congress
of 1890, to change or interfere with any
lines in our harbor established by the
state legislature. This opinion, though
differing from some others of less au-
thority, is deemed most reasonable and
will meet with general approval.
It is understood also that Colonel Hams
is in favor Of deepening the water on
that side of the harbor. This would
enable vessels of larger draught to ap-
proach the wharves on that shore or to
go on the marine railway for repairs; and
besides, it would give us what is much
needed. more anchorage room in the up
per harbor.

Mate Bowe Under Arrest,

Fred J. Bowe, mate Of the three-masted
schooner D. ]. Sawyer, Capt. Bagley,
now lying at a Newark dock, was arrest
ed Monday by United States Deputy
Marshal Haggerty, on complaint of James
Thomas, a colored seaman, who charges
him with cruel and sinhuman treatment.
The Sawyer left Jonesport August %,
and Thomas says that the first day out
he was ordered to coil the halyards, and
had begun to do so when Mate Bowe ran
up and after some words knocked him
down, and, springing upon him, attempt
ed with his thumb and finger to tear his
(Thomas's) mouth.
Mate Bowe's version of the affair is
that when Thomas received the order he
went at something else and made an ex-
asperating and impertinent reply in Span
ish. Bowe admits that he struck the
negro but denies tearing his mouth.
Bowe was held by.United States Com
missioner Whitehead in default of $500

his life. As the train was nearing the

the train, the cars passing over him, the
brake beam and rods crushing several
ribs, breaking his collar bone, decorating
his body and, it is feared, causing inter
