ninth WEEK OF TALK.
Congress Again Begins Its
Discussion of the Finan-
cial Question.
Results So Far Accomplished
Are Not in the Least
Encouraging.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-The ninth
week of the present session of congress
has begun and the result of the work
so far accomplished cannot be said to
be encouraging to persons who had
hoped for speedy adjustment of the
great financial question which caused
the issue of the call for the pr esent ses.
sion. The present outlook is towards
continuation of the debate which has
been in progress for the last five weeks
in the senate. The new talk of COM
promise legislation, however, gives the
impression in some quarters that the
end may be near. The list of speakers
has not been completed for this week,
and it may be assumed that when 1t Is,
the names of few repeal senators will
be upon it, and the debate will be left
almost altogether to the silver men
three of these, Teller, George and Nor
gan, are entitled to the floor at any
time to conclude speeches which they
have begun but not finished. Mr.. Call
of Florida has signifed desire to adj
dress the senate, but his is the only new
speech formally announced.
In the House.
The weeks business in the house will
confined, so far as can be stated, TO a
continuance of the idebate on the cleo.
ton bill, under the order which will
exhaust itself on the 10th instant. The
debate, as far as it has progressed. has
failed to develop any of that intensity
of partisan feeling so freely predicted
of it. In fact it has been rather tame
and uninteresting, and on one or two
days last week an early adjournment
was necessitated because no one was
ready to proceed with the argument.
An improvement in this respect is an
ticipated this week. The speakers list
contains the names of some of the lead
ers who have asked for time, Burrows,
Henderson Qa.), Dolliver, Fitch, Eel
lows and others. The expectation is
that the debate, that on the bill for the
repeal of the silver purchasing law,
will increase in interest toward the
close and go out in blaze of glory, so
to speak. There are number of meas
ures on the calendar which committees
may call up during the morning hour,
but it is not probable that any of them
will be brought to the attention of the
house for the time, for the discussion is
too brief to warrant expectation of def.
mite action.

WHERE is MENACE.
A Reward May Be Offered for the
SwindIer.

MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 2.-The town is
still talking about the gigantic swindl-
ing operations of Louis F. Menage, and
wonders if the grand jury, which re.
convenes on Tuesday, will secure suffi-
Gent evidence to indict others connected
with the Northwestern Guaranty loan
company. There is talk that the city
will offer q reward for Menage. The
impression still prevails that the big
operator on other peoples money has
not left the country. The report that
Menage is hiding in the mountains of
Chilli does not wash with the business
community, neither does the story that
he had only $4,000 when he left Mime.

DRAMATIC DATA.

With the approach of spring interest
in the forthcoming stock season at the
Grand is being aroused. and Manager
Lift, who is now in this city, has COM
pleted arrangements for two complete
stock companies this summer, one of
which will play for five weeks at the
Grand, commencing the latter part of
Nav, and then change places with the
other. which opens the season at the
Biiou at the same time. This will give
the public an entire change of faces in
in the middle of the summer and will
add renewed interest to the finished
performances that are always given by
Lifts popular players during the sum-
mer months.
Marie Prescott has written new
play, which is called L'Absintheur CThe
Absinthe Brinker). which is said to be
a portraiture of modern Partisan life.
A thrilling love story runs through
in several new and startling effects.
Miss Prescott plays the heroine of
course, and r. d. MacLean will show,
in the title role. how absinthe drinking
will wreck a man who should have
adorned a high social position. The
play will have its first production in
Duluth on Feb. %.
Charles Hoyt's funniest skit "a Trip
to Chinatown has been selected to
amuse the patrons of the Grand for the
entire week following the 1.-TWO Sis
ters.'' This company is just returning
from highly successful tour TO the
Pacific slope. Among the spectacular
PLAYS yet to be seen at the Grand this
season are "Hanlon's Fantasma," which
comes in couple of weeks, and "The
Spider and Fly" which plays are a re-
turn engagement of four nights in the
early spring.
"Ali Baba'' is grand and elaborate
spectacle. Never before on the Amer
lean stage has there been any piece
staged in such a costly and magnificent
manner, and with such bewildering
array of exquisitely beautiful and artis-
tic combinations of colors as shown IN
the costuming. 1t far eXcels Manager

1t should be extremely gratifying to
the ardent supporters of legitimate
school, of dramatic endeavor, to learn
that THE Two Sisters" that undeni-
ably excellent play by the authors OF
''The Old Homestead" will have re-
hearing at the Grand this week. 1t is
unfortunately true that III this age of
Indifferent theatrical entertainment the
really meritorlous offerings are so very
limited that one which is entitled to
serious consideration is announced,
something more than the ordinary notice
concerning its merits is necessary, IN
order to impress upon the MIND OF
theater-goerS the respect due to 1t.
1t is now five seasons ago since
Messrs. Denman Thompson and George
w. Ryer, the brilliant authors
of THE Old Homestead" introduced
The Two Sisters" And each sue
ceeding season has added new interest
to its work as a natural and absorbing
dramatic production. The various
scenes of the play, replete with gen
timely effective situations, enacted by
characters borrowed from life and
atfording the Introduction OF an equal
supply of pathos and comedy, give to
the play peculiar zest not to be found
in current stage presentations. Then
again. there is moral purpose served
in illustrating SO vividly the folly of
country girls determination. i'll spite OF
her sisters fervid entreaties, that the
authors of 1.-The Two Sisters" may be
said to have won special distinction as
writer's OF thoroughly elevatlng play.
Messrs. Thompson and Ryer can in
variably depend upon a hearty recep-
ton of their efforts in this city.

Town Streets.
The Committee Recommends
a Bridge at the Como
Crossing.

The cross town street railway ordi-
nanceS we're again discussed by the
board of aldermen committee on streets
yesterday. Aid. Ingersoll SAID he hoped
would settle the controversy. The con-
cluslOn lie mentioned was in the shape
of an ordinance which he desired sub
mitted in place of the ones presented by
AID. Warren and himself now before
the committee. The new ordinance
provided for line to be constructed OD
st. Claire, Milton. Grand avenue, Stall
bans, ROndo, Fisk, Fuller, Grotto, Mime
haha and Dale streets to Coma avenue.
The people. he said. wanted the line,
and in order to make it fair to the rail-
road company he would follow the ordi-
nance 10y another providing that the
line from St. Clair to Grand avenue be
completed in one year: from Grand to
University avenue prior to June l, 1895,
and the remainder prior to June |, 1896.
In case the company did not like the
\route mentioned, the ordinance also
provided the line could be constructed
on st. Clair, Milton, Grand avenue, ST.
AlbanS and Dale street. The coustitu-
ency he represented was anxious to get
the line i'll operation, and wanted it so
1t would connect with the Como Park
line. Aid Warren said he was delighted
to think Aid. IngerSOll desired 10 furnish
way by which the people patrOnizing
the croSS-tOWn line could reach Como
Park, but he didn't want them to have
to wait three years, as proposed by the
alderman from the Seventh ward. The
SlDStifntp OI1lnnnpn iT.tTndnann hu A III
lngersOll would be imperative even if
passed and not vetoed, as it ordered
lines put down on streets not severed,
and the chances were they would not
be for three years to come. The way to
bulld a line was to order one built on
streets where there were sewers or
deTed. and the Seventh ward alderman,
II lie were in favor Of a cross line, should
realize this fact. Continuing, Aid.
Warren said the ordinance introduced
by him, and passed by the assembly,
provided for the line being built on
streets already severed. He thought,
as 1t took three-fOurthS vote to pass
any ordddnce, the substitute offered by
Aid. lngers0ll would not pass the as
semhly, and he was in favor of the
board Of aldermen passing the one
which had already gone through the
assembly. He suggested the ordi-
nance introduced by him be passed
and then the route mentioned by the
substitute ordinance being placed in it
as an amendment. Aid. Ingersol was
OF the opinion that his substitute would
pass the assembly. lie asked the as
sislant attorney if there was anything
in the point raised by Aid. Warren
about sewers being necessary on streets
where lines were ordered. MIR. Phillips
was OF the opinion that streets Oh which
there were no sewers had better be left
out OF the ordinance.
