OLD POP" TALKS,
Favoring His Bill for Relief OF
the Needy. =

Favoring His Bill for Relief OF
the Needy. =
WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-Mr. PETER
Pop. Kan.) addressed the senate today
in favor of the bill introduced by him
yesterday approprlattng $4,000 900 for
Immediate use in relieving want and
restitution throughout the country.
Never before in the history of the counS
try. he said. has there been so much
want and restitution among the poor.
and unemployed. Indeed, it was safe
to estimate that one-fourth of the pop
ulation OF this country at this hour was
affected more or less by the present dis
tresS. The newspapers of the country,
especially those sometimes called great
and which were sometimes criticised
the most harshiy, had been doing great
service in relieving distress. He eX-
planned that by clerical error the
amount proposed to be appropriated
was stated in the bill to be sc, 800, OOU.
He intended to insert $63, 800, 600. The
money proposed to be appropriated was
money for which no one had use, the
silver dollars in the treasury uncovered
by certificates. At the conclusion of
Mr.. PETERS remarks the bill was re-
ferred to the committee Oh education
and labor.

surprised as any in the house. Here is
what some of them said:
Representative WolvertOn Dem. }

Represe sentative Bingham (Rep.)-It

can stand it the Republicans can.
Representative Beethoven, Dem. y
He is one of the cleanest and best men
in public life, and if Republican is to
get the place, know of no man that ]
would prefer to Mr.. MacVeagh.

Federal ELECTION Bill.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-The bill to
repeal the federal election laws was
taken up in the senate today and Mr..
Berry Oem., Ark addressed the senate
thereon. He believe that these laws
were vicious In principle and bad in
policy. They were part and parcel of
the reconstruction laws. They had
been passed at a time of great political
excitement and for the purpose of Sc
curing the supremacy of an ignorant
race in the Southern states. If there
ever had been any excuse for their pas
sage, there was no excuse for their re-
tention. In conclusion. Mr.. Berry said
Republicans should remember that the
South was now In the U Mon, and that
Southern men were ready to defend it.

need be, to fight for 1t.

NOTHING YET GIVEN OUT.
or THE MEETING BETWEEN MANA GERS
AND EMPLOYEES.
1T MAY LAST ALL TIE WEEK.

Cakes Says No Order Has Issued
Fixing Receivers Salaries at
$4,000 Year Eech-Mana-
gers of Northern Pacific and
Great Western in Session With
Employees.
There is but little of interest that can
be said relative to the two conferences
now in progress in st. Paul between
the Northern Pacific and the Chicago
Great Westerns general managers and
the trainmen's representatives. Yes
terday afternoon the Northern Pacific's
conductors committee met General
Manager Kendrlck and General Super
intendent Kimberly at O'Clock, and
these officials may meet the representa-
tives of the other railroad brotherhoods
today separately. 1t is understood that
each branch of the service will present
its own grievance independently of the
others, and that when each has been
heard, in turn a general caucus of the
railway committees and the officials
will be had.
The Chicago Great Western confer
ence was grinding all day yesterday.
but nothing is to be given out as yet 10
the public. 1t is not improbable that
the matter may continue all through the
week.

FANCY SKATING
To BE Seen at the Ramsey Street
Rink Tonight.

Rink Tonight.
Few skaters attain the remarkable de-
gree of efficiency which has been Sc
cured by Miss Mabel Davidson, st.
Pauls expert lady skater. Miss David
son has not been seen to advantage in
this city for two or three seasons, but
this evening will give an exhibition at
the Ramsey street rink, near West
Seventh street, and without doubt she
will be greeted by large number of
her old friends. The ice has been
placed in fine condition, and good music
will be in attendance. There will be no
advance in the price of admission. The
exhibition will be given about 9 p. m.
Miss Davidson gave an exhibition Of
her marvellous skill on the ice at the
Junior Pioneer rink last evening. The
grace with which this little woman per-
formed her numerous feats met with
warm approval from her many admir-
ers. Although absent from her native
heath for some two or three winters, she
has lost none of her tricks and graceful
movements, and it is not too much to
say that she has no competitor as a
woman skater in this country. Miss
Davidson is at present enjoying a
weeks vacation, and is giving skating
eXhibitisns to satisfy the demands Of
her many friends.

The Debate on Hawaii Again Laid
Over.

Inc DeDate on hawaii Again Laid
Over.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-The debate
which was expected in the senate today
on the presidents message as TO Hawaii
was averted by Mr. Hoar. of Massa-
chusettS, whose motion to refer the
message and accompanying documents
to the committee on foreign relations is
the pending question before the senate,
yielding to Senator Berry, of Arkansas,
and to Senator PETER, of Kansas. The
first-named addressed the senate in ad-
vocacy of the bill to repeal the federal
election laws, while Senator PETER ar
gued in favor of the bill introduced by
him yesterday appropriating money for
immediate use in relieving want and
restitution throughout the country. Mr..
Hoar stated, however, that tomorrow
he would call up his motion to refer the
presidents message and accompanying
documents to the committee on foreign
relations; and in all probability he will
address the senate at that time upon the
Hawaiian situation generally.

Has Authority Been Given Them
to Land?
WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-In the SEN
ate, during the transaction of morning
business, Mr.. Frye (Rep., Me.) rose and
said: 'About two years ago a French
cable company made application to our
secretary of state, Mr.. Blaine, for per-
mission to land its cable from Brazil on
the coast Of the United States. Our
secretary of state Investigated the mat
ter and found that the company had, by
authority of the law of Brazil, a monop-
oily; that no other company, while that
power was In eXlstence-and it was in
perpetuam- could be permitted to land
cable on. the Brazilian coast. So our
secretary Of state refused to grant the
permission. am informed, whether
truly or not cannot say,
that that company has recently
appeared before the secretay of
state, and that he has granted
to this company the right which they
asked, If 1t be true and there is no
remedy to be had for it. then the United
States will be perpetuaIly kept out from
landing any cable on the coast of Bra
zil." In view of these facts. he offered
a resolution making inquiry of the sec
Rotary of state as to whether this were
true.
Mr.. Huntop Dem., va.) said; 81

that resolution. l think the senator
from Maine is mistaken in his state

objection to the present Consideration

Cleveland Ball Club.

CLEVELAND, o., Dec. 19.-President
Robson, of the Cleveland Base Ball
club, has returned frem his East
ern trip, and it is understood that he
denied that he was in New York at all,
and therefore could not have negotiated
for the sale Of any of his players.
Whether Mr.. Robson has entered this
denial or not cannot be ascertained, for
he has placed boycott on the news
papers because, as he said, their utter
ances had deprecated the value of his
property SO per cent, Even after making
that statement, Mi. Robson continued
to ask S45, 900 for his club. Not player
has yet signed, but there will be no
trouble on that score when it becomes
necessary to get the PLAYERS.

MORE FIGHTING At RIO.
GENERAL ENGAGEMENT BETWEEN
REBELS AND LOBBYISTS.
UNCLE sAN,s SHIPS FEN ROUTE

Result Of the Engagement I'm
known, But Said to Be Very
Severe on Both Sides-Peixoto
and His Government in Hard
Financial Straits and Will
Soon Collapse.
Copyright, 1893, by the Associated Press.7
PERNAMBUCo, Dec. 19.-News was
received here late today that general
engagement between the rebels ships
and the government forts was begun on
Monday morning In the hafbor of Rio
de Janeiro. The fight on both sides is
said to have been severe, and the result
of the engagement is not known at the
time this cable is sent. Dispatches re-
ceived here from Rio de Janeiro today
also state that Capt. Picking. the
senior naval officer of the United
States ships at Rio de Janeiro,
has announced to the merchants
and ship captains there that he
declines to guarantee the safety Of the
anchorage used by merchant vessels
now for discharging and loading cargoes
into lighters. A report has gained cir
culation here that President Peixoto
and his government are nearly bank
rupt, and that the financial strain he
and his friends are subjected to cannot
be endured much longer. This rumor
may have its origin in insurgent sources
and is given for what it is worth. All
cable messages to and from the South
have been stopped by order of the gov
ernment officials here or at Rio de
Janeiro, and the utmost anxiety is ex-
pressed as to the result of the battle
now going on between the rebels and
the government forces.
Late today Capt. Nunez, the new
commander of the Nictheroy, shipped
sixty new men and sent several of the
New York crew ashore. The rest of
the seamen shipped at New York were
compelled to sail in spite of their pro-
tests and strike for higher wages.
1t is thought that there was a serious
disturbance on board the Nictheroy.
and that several of the men who de-
sired to leave the ship engaged in a
struggle with the remainder of the
crew and that number of men were
finally clapped in irons and confined
below decks.
