PORT TOWNSEND, Wash, Jan. r.
United States Marshal Orville T. Porter, of
the Alaska district, has caused consterna-
ton in that Territory. The number of white
men lawfully married TO women of their
own race in Alaska is confined principally
to a handful of government officials and
naval men stationed there. Most of the
remainder of The white males have pur-
chased native wives, their union with whom
is not recognized in law. Nearly every
grand jury which convenes in Alaska is in
structed from the bench to inquire into this
alleged evil and indict all violators of the
law. This charge, however, is seldom
obeyed.
Last night the steamer Topeka, which ar
rived from the north, brought information
that Marshal Porter recently instructed his
several deputies throughout the Territory to
law. As a result of this official order near
ly every man on board the United States
steamer Pinta Is in Jail at Sitka- Hundreds

BIand's SeigniOrage Dill.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 12-The bill OF
Representative Bland directing the secre-
tary of the Treasury TO coin the silver
seigniorage now in the treasury was favor
ably acted on by the committee on coinage
to-day. The vote on reporting the bill was
30 s. The Affirmative votes We're all Dem
ocrat.c, with the exception of Representa-
tive Sweet. The negative votes were cast
by Republicans with the exception OF
Messrs. Tracey, Harter and Raynor. The
bill directs the Secretary of the Treasury
to Immediately issue certificates of current
denominations up to the amount of seign-
forage now in the treasury, namely, $55, ,l56-
6S1. These certificates are TO be at once
available to pay current government eX-
penseS. The Seigniorage is To be coined
fast as possible TO redeem the certificates.
A further provision is added that the re-
mainder of the silver bullion purchased un-
der the act of July IA. $780, shall be coined
into silver dollars, and the coin held I'm the
treasury for the redemption of treasury
notes issued in the purchase of said bullion.
The notes presented for redemption shall not
be reissued, but shall be Cancelled and de-
stroyed in amounts equal To the coin held
at any time in the treasury, and silver GER
tificates may be issued on such coin in the
manner now provided by law.
Representative Bland was well pleased
with the result of the meeting. II will not
make the report of the seigniorage bill un-
til after the tariff bill is out of the way"
said he, "as the tariff has the right OF way,
and we do not wish to antagonize IL or di-
vert attention from il. But the determina-
ton of the committee meets the bond prop
osition more than half way. / do not be-
the other hand, have little doubt as to the
passage of the seigniorage bill"

of the Merchants Exchange, Secretary
Morgan to-day forwarded to Missouris
Congressman and Senator's the following:
1.-The board of directors of this exchange,
being of the opinion that the cause and,
perhaps, the principal cause of the stagna-
ton in all lines of business is the uncer-
tainty as TO what action will be taken by
Congress- as to the Wilson tariff bill, and
believing, further, that speedy action, either
ton thereby settling the vexed question
will be of the greatest benefit TO the COM
merc!al interests of the country, respect
fully request you to use your best endeav-
ors TO have action taken thereon in tn
House at the earliest opportunity.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-In commenting
on the deplorable condition of the treasury
and the efforts OF Secretary Carlisle TO have
passed in advance of action on the tariff
bill a measure providing for the coinage OF
the silver seignorage and the issuance OF
$1O0. 900 of certificates of indebtedness,
redeemable after eighteen months and bear
ing per cent. interest, Senator Allison.
VINO is certainly one Of the most influential
Republican members Of the finance commit
tee, said to your correspondent to-day:
IF the Secretary of the Treasury. Presi-
dent Cleveland. or any Of the leaders OF
that the Republicans over in the House
or the Senate intend TO play into the hands
of the Democratic party by supporting such
legislation they Will find themselves sadly
mistaken at the critical moment, when
they attempt to displace the tariff bill by
any such proposition. An issue OF certifi-
Gates of Indebtedness is but n bond issue
in disguise, and directly involves the princi-
pies embraced in the Wilson tariff bill.
Had it not been for the promulgation of
this vicious and destructive piece of tariff
legislation there would not exist a de-
ficiency in the treasury; and If it were
known that the Wilson bill would fail TO
pass, the deficiency would not exist for
period of time which it would be necessary
to consume in discussing the issuance OF
the proposed /. o. US or bonds. The
Republicans do not propose TO relieve the
Democratic administration of the embar-
rassment it is in on account of the effort
being made to establish English principles
by the adoption of the Wilson bill. 1t
would certainly be much easier to pass the
tariff bill in it's present form, or after
amendments have been adopted, IL the de-
ficiency in the treasury was met by some
measure. We certainly have no right TO
coin or certificate the silver seigriorage.
That is a sacred collateral held in the
treasury to secure the payment of out
standing silver obligations The proposi-
tion TO issue certificates OF Indebtedness is,
to my mind, fiimsy effort 10 get through
a bond issue without bearing the odium
which must attach TO any Increase OF the
interest-bearing debt. The deficiency I'm the
treasury must worry along in some way
until we have either passed or defeated the
Wilson tariff bill"

tectural points. The dome of the
Administration building Is out
lined against the deep blue sky. the
straight lines Of the Mechanic Arts
building are clear cut against the
background OF the night, the classic
outlines of the Fine Arts Palace en-
hance the effect that structure always
has and the peculiarly effective archi-
lecture of the great Palace of Manu-
factures and Liberal Arts seems never
to be seen ut better advantage than
when its thousands of incandescent
electric lights are lighted.
The Horticulture and Agriculture
building, however, is the one that
seems to attract most attention In this
particular. This is perhaps due to the
fact that its lines contain more curves
and more architectural eccentricities
than any other, but it is undoubtedly
due in II larger degree to the great
flood of light which pours through the
big glass dome that surmounts the
building Visitors seem ut loss to
decide whether the prettier picture is
presented by day, when the deep green
of CalifornIa's midwinter foliage lends
its aid, or at night, when artificial
light plays SO prominent part. All
are agreed, however, that the Califor
mia Midwinter international Exposi-
tion is the prettiest worlds fair that
has ever been held upon Gods foot
stool, and the concessionaires, many
of whom have stated their all to cross

be conceded to be good judges of the
promise of such an exposition, are
united in the opinion that this fair

The consideration shown by the Pennsyl-

most fayorably with that OF the English COM
panies In cases where the employees are not
equal to the standard they are generally given
one or two more trials, and then II II has been
thoroughly demonstrated that their sight Ia
too bad to justify them in being kept in train
service they are given employment in some
other capacity. They are even permitted to
rectify the impaired vision by the use of
spectacles. In testing sight the employe is
supposed to stand fifteen feet from test
card and told to read some of the smaller let
ters, 1t being obvious tha: II he could do it
there would be no trouble with the large let
tiers. Either eye is tested by shutting oil the
sight Of the other. He is next given book
of fine print to read at n certain distance.

are applied, and then he Is tried for his abll-

Under the title of 1.-The Word OF

Cologne Gazette publishes curious
story OF General de Bauffremont,
whose death was recently snnounc-
ed. According to that paper General
Bauffremont was one OF the numerous
band of French officers who. after
being captured during the war of
1870, were allowed to reside on
parole at Bonn. Not very far off. at
the camps of VAIN and Gremburg.
near Cologne and Coblentz, were
many thousands Of prisoners Of war
belonging to tho rank and file OF the
French army.
In the course OF Novem ber, 1870, d
French agent went about among these
soldiers trying to induce them to join
In an attempt to escape and to march
to France in order to fall on the rear
OF the German army. and the like
overtures were made to some of the
officers at Bonn. A number of
chassepots and cartridges were
actually smuggled into Germany
from France. On hearing that some
OF the French officers were inclined
to countenance the project General
de Bautfremont gave information to
General Won Bittenfeld. governor of
the province, who instantly took
such measures as prevented the pro-
posed rising.

rrsucs for Ao.,x. Woman.

In one of the United States reports
Consul Loomis, commenting on the
part taken by French women in bust
ness affairs, says there is perhaps no
other nation where the women take
so intelligent and active part in
these mattcrs as they do in France.
In the small shopkeeping class the
women, as rule, have much better
judgment than their husbands and are
the real brains and life of the trade.
The wife of French tradesman, arti-
san or farmer is generally his cashier
and accountant. She takes care of
the savings and invests them; she is
much brighter than her husband, a
good deal more industrious in very
large number of instances, and does
not hesitate to assert herself, particu-
larly If she was the possessor of a dot
when she was married.
