WISCONSIN Interests Sacrificed.
FyenlnV Wisconsin.

Evening Wisconsin.
The party lash was never WELD
ed with much better effect than in
the final marshaIing of Democratic
votes in the passage of the Wilson
bill. One Of the significant incidents
Of the House session yesterday,
which afforded surprise even to the
Democratic leaders, was the unhes-
i.ating and very unanimous "aye"
voted by the Democratic members
North and South who, throughout
the debate, have been strenuous in
opposing the measure as whole, or
certain of its features.
Every Democratic member from
Wisconsin voted for the bill. Yet
all Of them, on grounds of personal
conviction or in professed Difference
TO the demands Of their constituents,
had opposed and even voted against
several Of its most important pro-
visions. Some bad opposed free
lron-ore, some free lumber some
a reduction OF the barley tarltt; ana
every Wisconsin member pretended
to be influenced ID his action by re-
gard Tor the business ana INDUSTRIAL
interests OF Wisconsin.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our regular correspondent,
WASHINGTON. d. O.. Jan. 5. 1850

WASHINGTON, d. G., Jan. s. 1894.
EX- Speaker Reed probably never
made better or stronger speech
than that with which he closed the
republican side Of the debate on the
Cleveland tariff bill, but it was cast
jrg pearls before swine to attempt
to stop the democrats of the House
i'm their headlong rush towards ruin
aud destruction. But there are
millions of intelligent people in
this country who will appreciate and
heed the masterful array of calm
and insurmountable facts presented
by the honored republican of the
House, even they did fall unheeded
upon the ears Of men, many of
whom voted for the atrocious meas
ure against their honest convictions,
knowing that it wou,i injure those
who had sent then TO Congress.
Some Of these men voted for the
bill simply because they lacked the
courage to do otherwise, but not a
few Of them did SO for a mess of.

Hon. j. W. BABcoCK, is recog-
mzcd as clearheaded, indefat.
gable worker in congress, a credit
to the third district Of Wisconsin,
which lac directly represents, and a
faithful defender of the interests Of
the country. He took an active part
in the great debate on the tariff bill,
aud in speech made strong plea
for protection TO American products
and American labor. Chicago aud
Milwaukee papers mention Mr..
Babcoc1s as one of the best short
speeches delivered during the debate,
lie WAS specially torcible in depict
ing the serious blow dealt to the
agricultural interests coming into
competitor with Canada, Australia
and other countries, on barley, wool f,
etc, by the enactment of the bill re-
duc,ug or wipiug out import duties
on such products.

Chicago has a house which has so
bad reputation among the supersti-
tious people of that city that it can
not get tenant. Last October Fred
Mangerer moved into tho house, and
in few days afterward two of his
children were burned to death in a
gasoline explosion. Not long after
ward Chris Wissames took the house
and within two weeks his wife died
suddenly and he shortly vacated the
premises. After while he was sue
ceeded by Fred Halter, who started a
bakery in the place, and in one week
his brother, who worked in the place,
dropped dead. Ilalster soon moved
out, and the premises stand vacant
yet. The neighbors say it is certain

Director Beals, of the Minnesota
weather service, makes the following
report on weather and crops for the
week:
River Valley-The weather con-
ditions in the Red river valley we're on
the whole rather favorable for the grow
ing crops. There were general showers
throughout this region OH Tuesday and
Wednesday. with the temperature
above the average. The latter halt Of
the week was dry and cool.
Central Section-The temperature
and rainfall condition for tine Central
sections of the state were quite varia-
BILE, the former being much above the
normal the first half of the week. fol-
lowed by temperatures decidedly below
the average. Tuesday and Wednesday
the rainfall was excessive, and espe
cially so i'll the eastern section of this
district, where in many places the soil
was so badly washed out that great
deal of corn and potatoes will have to
be replanted.
Southern Section-The week has been
one of extremes. i'll temperature, the
early part being very hot, with fire.
qnent, but badly distributed showers,
followed during the latter half by cool
weather and frosts, which did large
amount of damage to corn, potatoes,
garden truck and small fruit. The
corn and potatoes will undoubtedly re-
cover from any injury they may have
received, but III the case of fruit the
damage is probably permanent. Small
grain has not been injured to any aD-
preciable extent by frost. and its con-
dition III most places is reported very
good. More rain is needed in the SOUTH
western portion Of this district.

Police Have Another Spasm Con-
corning Slot Machines.
In the police court yesterday James
E. Brady and William j. O'Leary, pro-
prietors of the saloon at the corner of,
Sixth and st. Peter streets, we're ar
raigned on charge of keeping a
gambling device. The complaint sworn
out by Lieut.. Pottgeiser. of the police
department, refers to nickel slot ma
chine. such as those in use in plumber,
of saloons in the business part of the
city.
The case was continued to Thursday
morning, aud the defendants released
OH 500 bail. In connection with the
arrests in the case, it is noticeable that
the police department seem to be play
ing favorites regarding the nickel-in-
the-slot machines, the same as they have
i'll the "big mit'' joints. Some three
weeks ago officers in the police depart
ment visited the saloons III which there
were 81 OF machines and ordered them
taken out. A day or so afterward. dur.
Ing which time arrangements" had
evidently been made with some one,
the machines we're placed back on the
bars and everything was lovely. just
what caused the last spasm and only
two arrests for allowing the machines
to be operated will probably be brought
out in the trial of the saloon men on
Thursday.

"a very enjoyable sacred concert was
given last night at st. Joseph sschurch,

The musical programme has seldom
been equaled in this city, and consisted
OF the choice of home talent. The
church choir Is an excellent one, and
their rendering of selections was
in harmony with the excellent features
of the evening. Miss Campbell, of
the cathedral choir, is possessed of
an excellent contralto voice. and her
singing of the "Blind Girls Song'
pleased the audience: MISS Sarah A.
Mealy has sweet soprano voice. She
never sang with more pleasing effect
than when she rendered angels

clear and full, and the audience was
much impressed by her singing. John

The evenings entertainment con-
cluded with an address by Rev. P.
Danehy. of st. Thomas, seminary. His
topic being What Catholics Do Not
i Believe" The points Of his theme en-
braced the alteration of God alone. He
emphasized the belief that the doctrine
of infalllbility, and the doctrine OF con-
fession. do not ens!ave either the mind
or the conscience of men. He declared
tnat Catholics do not believe thai al
legiance 10 church, or belonging to the
church, detracts one jot or title from
the allegiance 10 civil powers or to the
state. He did not believe that those
who study the Catholic church could
take objection to its teachings. He
thinks that if the Protestants under
stood the teachings aud doctrines of
the church better their prejudice would
disappear.
