DAUGHTERS OF THE KING.
A Vote in Favor of AbOlishing the
Grand Chaplaincy.

There was a very lively session of the
Daughters Of the King Thursday at Balti-
more ewing to a dispute over the office OF
grand chaplain. Some rather bitter words
were exchanged by the clergymen taking
part in the discussion and the wife Of the
grand chaplain burst into tears and left
the building.
When the vote on the chaplaincy was
taken 1t showed nearly two-thirds ma.
jority in favor of abolishing this office
and substituting an advisory board, the
vote standing 50 to 81. The anti-chaplain.
ties had barely time to express to each
other their satisfaction when the voice OF
the lady in the chair was heard reminding
them that Of course this vote had nothing
final about 1t as it would go before the
council simply a recommendation, the
council having the general government,
of the order. A vote was passed to ex-
press to the grand chaplain that there
was nothing personal in the conventions

pressing also gratitude for his work.

MANY MILES IN CANOE
WarburtOn Pixies Exploration Int,
the Interior of AlasLn

Warburton Pike the English explorer. has
just arrived at Nanaimo. b. c., from the
interior of Alaska, having made a Journey
of over 1900 miles in small canoe. He left
Victoria, b. c.. yea- ago last July for
Fort Wrangel and thence proceeded Ia
Stikeen river i'm a canoe through the Cas-
sair country and followed the Dease river
as far as the junction with the Laird t-ibu-
tary of the Mackenzie river. There he
spent the winter hun ting big game. Late in
the winter Pike started out with a dog sled
for Francis Lake, which he crossed and
thence made the portage to the Pelly Lakes.
getting into a country never before ex-
plored by white man.
Spring had set in by the time the Pelly
Lakes were reached, and crossing there
Pike followed the Pelly river to its source.
On his return he followed the Pelly river to
Lewis river. which he followed to the
Yukon. He then began a continuous Jour
ney of $500 miles. which lasted for two
months. He left the Yukon river near the
coast and made a portage to Kuskoquin
river and thence made his way around the
coast to Fort Alexander, the trip having
lasted thirteen months.
During the whole time he met with no &C.
cident. He used the same canoe all
through. 1t weighs only one hundred pounds
and Is seventeen feet long. Mr. Pike
formed a very poor opinion of the interior
Of Alaska. He says it is absolutely worth
less. except for hunting. Game of all kinds
Is abundant.

The voorhees, Amendment.
The question then required on the amend
ment Of the finance committee adding a
declaration or friendliness to silver to the
Wilson bill. and promising further legisla-
ton in the future. Mr.. Voorhees, explained
that IL adopted this amendment would
stand as an original bill, and would there
fore be amendable. He was quite willing
that amendments should be offered, and
discussed briefly. There were from twenty
five to thirty amendments, of which notice
had been given, but which had not been in
troduced as yet. On this roll call the mega
tive votes were cast by Senators Allen
Bate. Call Coke, Irby, Kyle. PETER. Roach.
Vance.

as soon as the result had been announced
He wanted to introduce his free. coinage
amendment, of which he had given notice
Mr.. Voorhees, tried to get the floor. but
Mr.. Perkins was ahead of him. and the
amendment was read, and Mr.. Perkins
made a speech for about twenty minutes
which was full of figures and feryent pray-
ers for the future welfare of the country
Mr.. Stewart followed to cast a stone into
the repeal ranks by reading from the
record of the vote on the free coinage
proposition voted upon in July, 1892. He
said that il certain Senators who voted for
free coinage then had not changed their
votes the PETER proposition would have
been carried. He named Senators Faux
ner. Squire, Hill, Mills. Ransom, Turpie,
voorhees, and Gordon. No one replied to
this charge, and Senator Allen took the
n"'r :, rake a re t.irk ,,',' s:--ech, full of
! fight. He called attention to the fact that
for over ten days there had been no prayer
in the opening OF ,ne sessions OF the SENATE
That was appropriate, he ADDED. for II was
fitting that the Senate should cease listen
ing to prayers when It started in to enact
tory.
Mr.. Teller's Appeal.
Then Mr.. Teller made a speech that will
go into the record Of the light as the most
heartfull plea for tustice that has been
given in behalf OF the people of the silver
section. He spoke to an audience that
was perfectly quiet and sympathetic
in its attention. For twenty minutes he
told of the great harm that would come to
Colorado If silver was demonetized There
was no demagogism, no raillery. no rant in
his talk. 1t was purely the sentiment of a
man who represents his suffering people
Il do not intend to weary the senate, %
he said. with tears in his eyes, but
cannot allow this occasion to pass without
saying that to me IL is the most terrible
moment of my legislative life. To me. Mir.
President, 1t brings more anxiety. more
fear. than any other moment since enter
ed public life"
AS Mr.. Teller concluded his eloquent re-
marks, he was congratulated by those i'm
med!ately around him. and. after a brief
Voorhees,, the Senate took a recess until IL
o'clock today.

Ell. CID BOUGHT FOR BRAZIL.
She VIII Be Loaded With 100000
Worth of Arms.

1t is now said that the same house which
purchased the arms ana ammunition in
such large quantities for use in the Brazil
ian civil war has just bought for an enor-
nous price one of the swiftest and strong
est of the Morgan line steamers. The pur-
chase was made yesterday afternoon. and
the vessel sold is FL Cid. the queen of the
Morgan fleet, whose recent remarkable
passage from New Orleans to New York
was commented upon at much length
That the purchasers of the FL Cid wanted
her badly and wanted her at once is suf-
hciently shown by the price paid for her.
This, as one OF the managers of the Nor
gan line said, is fully two or three times
as much as the vessel is worth. Today she
Will be turned over to her new purchas ers
The purchasers are nominaly the Broad
street firm of Charles r. Flint 4 Co, the
same firm that only a few days ago bought
at one deal 100000 worth of arms and am
munition of the Hotchkiss Gun Company.
These wariike munitions, according to
the contract, are to be delivered on board
vessel in the port of New York within
sixteen days. barring the act of God or n
public enemy. There was no mention in
the formal agreement of the name of the
vessel board which the arms and am
muntion were to be delivered. The pur-
chase of FL Cid from Col Huntington, rep
resenting the Morgan line, now supplies
that omission.
