WASHINGTON LETTER.
Senator Washburn Will Make q
Vigorous Fight for His
Anticipation Bill.

Sensitive Southerners Profess to
Have Constitutional OBJ
jectiOns to the Bill.
From the Unions Special Correspondent
WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. Il
The Democratic party will have
an opportunity to show the peo-.
pie whether or not it wishes to put
a stop to dealing in futures and
options. Senator Washburn will
make another effort to secure the
enactment of the bill which he
pressed to vote so vigorously in
the last congress. At that time
the Democrats of the house were
very anxious to do something in
the early part of the fight, but
there was a wonderful let down at
the close of congress. With less
than half an hour for discussion
the bill was sent to the senate.
Under the management of Senator
Washburn it was made as near
perfect as possible, and when sent
to the house again it slept there.
Senator Washburn has always
been generous to Col. Hatch, who
had charge of the bill in the house,
and held that he did the best he
could under the circumstances, yet
he never had as many difficulties
as Senator Washburn as the un-
limited debate gave the opponents
of the bill an opportunity to hold
it up a long time in the senate.
With the Democracy in complete
control of the legislature there
may be a possibility Of getting the
bill through, but it will be tight
squeeze. Senator Washburn tried
for a long time to see if there
could not be framed bill which
would be constitutional and which
would not be vetoed by Cleveland.
which would stop dealing in op
tons by direct prohibition, under
the interstate commerce clause O.

) bill that many southern Democrat
would vote for, they claiming tina
they can vote for no measure tina

eminent for any other purpos

McKane's TrinI.

The past week has been a bad one for
John y. McKane, the Gravesend boss
Last Saturday Gen. Benz. F. Tracy, who
was President Harrison's secretary of the
navy, and whose reputation is that of one
of the ablest of New York lawyers. put
McKane on the witness-stand and before
the day was over had trapped him into an
admission of downright perjury. McKane
swore positively that he had never ex-
amined the registry list at Gravesend to
inform himself whether they were made
up fairly or not. Having got him squarely
on the record as making this statement.
Gen. Tracy protected an affidavit signed
and sword to by McKane last November,
in which he stated that he had examined
the registry lists prepared by the inspectors
of election pursuant to law, and found
them properly made Me Kane had evil
IDENTIFY forgotten that he had made this
affidavit, and this effect on his case was
damaging to the last degree. Monday, in
spite of all his cautions and wariness, he
still further contradicted himself on es-
sential points and was evidently glad when
Gen. Tracy finally relieved him from what
had proved a torture seat for him.
Gen. Tracy had McKane on the rack
again Tuesday and rolled him about in a
tangle of contradictions and admissions of
perjury. What Gen. Tracy has really done
has been to compel McKane to draw a
word picture of himself, revealing his own
character and showing by his own mouth
his defiance of law and the outrages on
justice which he has perpetrated by his
political methods.

i'm view met at Towns Hotel parlor, where
masks. sheets and pillow cases were put

to whist, when, without any notice, to the
utter establishment of the gentlemen pres

The platform of the Democratic party is

From the Bennington Banner.


The Rev. \. Macgeorge [of Brattleborol
began a series of meetings with the First
Baptist church Jan. I, to continue through
the week of prayer From the very first
service great interest was manifested, and
from day to day numbers increased so the
seating capacity of the chapel was taxed to
its uttermost. The gospel, as presented by
Mr.. Macgeorge in its simplicity, reached the
minds and hearts of the young, and large
number have been converted, and still the
interest is undated. At a large business
meeting of The church Tuesday evening, a
unanimous vote was given by the church,
and a petition is to be sent in to the state
convention, of which Mr.. Macgeorge has
been the successful evangelist for seven
years, asking that body to release him for
the balance of the convention year, to act
as pastor of the church. The service of
last Sunday morning and evening made
lasting Impressions Ten young men were
baptized in the morning and nine young
ladies in the evening. Mr.. Macgeorge's ac-
ceptance of this call was announced We'd
