west are also here and this fight
promises to be an animated one. 1t is
thought the interested parties do not
expect to accomplish anything in the
House, but will rely on the Senate to
insert an amendment to the Wilson
bill retaining the present duty.
If, as is currently believed, here, the
income tax provision in the Wilson bill
be stricken out. either by the House
or the Senate it is thought the only
way to raise the necessary amount of
revenue will be to restore the duty on
sugar, but then the question raises
whether the duty shall be more than
cent pound; if only / cent a pound,
the sugar producers claim it will not
be heavy enough to afford the proper
protection after the bounty is abolished.
The sugar producers are, therefore,
very active, including representatives
of all the branches of that industry.
Mr. Bland says that as soon as the
tariff bill is disposed of in the house,

sincere in their promises to pass a
definite law on the subject after the
Sherman law was repealed

WILSON TALKS BY THE CARD.
No Consideration of Bonds Until Tar
if is Out of the Way.

Washington, Jan. 6.-Chairman Will
son says there will be no considera-
ton of the bond question until the
tariff bill is out of the way. The COM
mitteee has not yet given the slight
est attention to the matter Of bonds.
Harter, of Ohio, today introduced a
bill giving the secretary of the treas
ury authority to issue bonds whenever
it is considered necessary. The bonds
bear interest of 8 per cent and run
thirty years or less, at the option of
the government. Harter says the bill
is not the result Of any talk with Car
Isle, or any other administration Off
Gals. .-........-
Sperry, of Connecticut, who repre-
sents the Democratic DIRECTORS to the
Wilson BILL says the committee on
ways and means has reported a tariff
bill showing 10000 900 deficiency, and
has agreed on an income tax. Every
one is able to act intelligently on the
tariff bill, but the internal revenue
bill is not yet reported, and nobody
knows what it will contain. It is I'M
derstood the internal revenue bill will
be attached to the tariff bill as an
amendment and yet the rules COM
mittee propose to limit the debate on
the matter on which no member of
congress mas authentic information.
Every Congressman is entitled to have
his intended legislation to put into
print with the majority and minority
reports, before inviting cloture on the
bill not in existence. Until the ways
and means committee decides what it
wants TO do, it can hardly object if we
delay further proceedings in the House

course of action it expects to pursue

st. Vincent. Jan. 6.-[Copyrighted by
the Associated Press. IA dispatch
from the Associated Press correspon-
dent at Pernambuco. dated Dec. 81,
says that after a most careful and
nonpartisan investigation he has been
forced to the conclusion that the feel
ing in favor of revolution is constan-
tly spreading in the north, and that
the presence of the government SOL
diers would not be enough to restrain
it but for the presence of the cruisers
Nichteroy and America. If they
should depart the rebellion would break
out as in the south. Even the govern
ment troops sympathize with the re-
bellion and would not be very severe
with the rebels in case of an uprising
The crews of the Nichteroy and
American are reported much dissa It's
fed at not receiving the wages prom
Used them and it is believed that unless
paid it will be very difficult to get
them to fight the rebellion. The feel
ing in the north is solely against Peix-
oto's military dictatorship, not in IA
vor of monarchy, as the people are
unanimously in favor of a republic.
It is stated that the Nichteroy and
consort have been instructed not to en-
gage the Aquidaban and the Republi-
ca. even should those vessels arrive
off this port It is said should the
rebel admiral be signalled the govern
ment vessels will put to sea and trust
to superior speed to escape being
shelled by the rebel vessels. AS al
ready stated. should this be the case,
the revolution in Pernambuco which
will declare itself in favor of Mello
may be expected as soon as the govern
ment warships are out of sight of landl
in fact it is reported that steps have
already been taken looking to a pop
ular uprising in favor of the insurgents
and tibet conspirators are only await
ing a signal to declare themselves
against Peixoto and openly furnish the
insurgents the assistance which they
previously have been extending in Sc
cret to the adherents of Mello. Should
Pernambuco revolt. it is added, it is
probable that other cities and states
in the northern part of Brazil will fol-
low the example.

Dallas, Texas, Jan. 6.-The News
Fort Hancock, Texas, special: Last
Monday, j. H. Bond of Corrites ranch,
Chihuahua, in company with Luis
Acosta and four assistants, left here
for Rancho Borroro, forty miles be-
the work. they started back and when
ten miles from the ranch they were
surrounded by a band of twenty-five
Mexican revolutionists, under command
of General Ochoa, and relieved of six
mules, fifteen horses, eleven revolvs-s,
saddles and ammunition and carried
back to the ranch, where all the pro-
visions and everything useful were
taken off, including all the laborers,
who were enlisted. General Ochoa
then instructed Bond and party to re-
main at the ranch three days and he
would send him a team to carry the
party here, but Bond secured a horse
and rode in haste to wire for assist
ance.
Ochoa informed him he left ElPaso
on Wednesday with six men, organizing
as he proceeded down the river, and
he had gained nearly all whom he had
met. He was securing arms and am
munition, but did not take any money.
They completely stripped the Rancho
Armogosa, twenty miles this side of
Borracho of the stock and provisions.
After leaving Borracho, they went
east towards Las Lavacs, where they
expected more recruits, and they will
probably capture the Mexican custom
house at Ojenaga today. Ochoa said
it was only one of several organic
ing parties that had started in various
directions at the same time, and in
timated they would meet at some point
south with quite an army.

THE SIERRA LEONE ATTACK.
1t Will Probably Cause International
Complications.

London. Jan. 6.-International COM
OBLIGATIONS will probably arise over the
attack on British troops of French
forces on the Sierra Leone frontier,
West Africa. 1t appears the attack
took place well within the sphere of
British influence. It appears that a
British force of 500 native troops oper-
ating against the Sofas in camp were
attacked early in the morning by Sen
egalese sharpshooters and native
French auxiliaries. The moon was
shining quite brightly at the time.

of both sides were killed in the encoun-

And Still the Rot.

Jacksonville, Fla, Jan. 6-The
story is current today that Corbett
had written a letter to Mitchell offer
ing to forego the purse and meet him
in private in case the contest could
not be otherwise pulled off,
A telegram has been received from
Mitchell, denying that Corbett had
written such a letter and when the
story was sifted it was developed that
Corbett had told Bowden he was so
anxious to fight the Englishman he
would meet him in a room for moth
ing, either with gloves or bare
knuckies. The truth seems to be the
determined opposition of Governor
Mitchell has taken heart out of the
fighters and the promoters of the con-
test. The club is still talking about
bringing the fight off on time.
Corbett and Mitchell are said to be
in training, but majority of the peo-
pie here do not believe the contest
will be allowed in Florida-at least
not publicly. If Corbett and Mitchell
get together, they will have to meet
secretly, SO secretly that the governor
will not know where it is to be fought
until the newspapers SO announce. All
talk about the club bringing a pres
sure to bear on the governor to get
him to ''let up in his opposition. is
considered the veriest rot. There was
a story floating around that the scene
of the contest would be transferred to
Cuba
1t is said there has been a man here
who is largely interested in Florida
railroads, and also controls a steam
ship line from Tampa to HAVANA who
had offered to provide all the neces-
sary transportation for a large crowd
to HAVANA provided Corbett and
Mitchell would consent to meet there.
This is a sample of the stories floating
around, but all have more or less Of
a fake about them.
1t is apparent this continual talk
and uncertainty has already Disguised
great many people.

THE BATTLE WITH THE JAWS.
Very Doubtful if the Pugs VIII
Come Together

Jacksonville, Fla, Jan. 6.-The train
ing of both Corbett and Mitchell is go
ing on as usual. Visitors at their
headquarters are increasing in num-
Der and sporting men are beginning
to arrive.
Governor Mitchell has addressed
message to the Methodist conference
at Palakata thanking them for their
support of his stand against the battle.
He says he shall continue his present
position. The Duval people, however.
persist in the statement that the con-
test will come off as advertised and a
few bets are being made to that effect.
The. club is continuing to push the
work OF arrangement and it looks as
II tney mad some good grounds upon
which to base their opinions.
