The "War, ia Over

Denver, Feb. Tt is likely that the
United States troops that have been pa
trolling the Mexican border for the pur-
pose of apprehending any Mexican revo-
lutionists that might attempt to cross into
this country, will be withdrawn within a
day or two. Col. Thomas Ward, adjutant
general of the department of the Colorado,
is in receipt of letter from Capt. Pitcher,
in command of thesquadr on at Columbus,
N. NJ, in which such action is recon-
mended. The captain expresses the
opinion that all possibility of trouble is
at an end.
Col. Ward says he shall take no action
until he receives word from Lieut.. 0. j..
Brown, who is now on scouting expedi-
tion along the Rio Grande. This report
will probably be in soon, and if it coin
cides with the one received from Capt.
Pitcher, Col. Ward will at once order the
troops back to their respective posts.

CONGRESSIONAL.
To-DAY's SENATE.

To-DAY's SENATE.
Washington, Feb. 1.-THE attention of
the senate was occupied fifteen minutes
by Senator Cameron, of Pennsylvania,
this morning in the presentation of fifty
petitions against the Wilson hill. They
came from manufacturers, operators and
emplbyes representing nearly every
Pennsylvania industry affected by the
proposed tariff reduction.
Senator Cameron also presented an
amendment to the tariff bill postponing
until Januafy /, 1896, the date which the
proposed law shall take effect.
The federal election repeal bill wac
then taken up and Senator Hoar, OF
Massachusetts, took the floor in opposi
tion to the measure. He said he was one
of five senators now in the chamber who
voted for this law in 1871.
To-DAy's HOUSE.
In the house to-day Mr.. McCreary
called up his Hawaiian resolution. Mr..
Reed, pursuing tilibustering tactics inau-
gurated yesterday, made point of order
that when the house adjourned last night
it adjourned pending the proceedings to
enforce the attendance of absentees. lie
conte nded that the proceedings under call
did not terminate with adjournment, and
that the only thing in order was the report
of tho sargeant-at-arms, or if the chair
held that all proceedings were terminated
by adjournment it also vacated the order
revoking leaves of absence and instruct
ing the sargeant-at-arms to telegraph for
absentees. The speaker overruled the
point of order, holding that while ali pro-
ceedings under call terminated with ad-
journment the order revoking leaves of
absence executed itself.
Roll was then called on the adoption of
the McCreary resolution. The Repub-
licans sat silent in their seats. The vote
on the first roll call was ia to 8, no
quorum. When the vote was announced,
Mr.. Springer raised the point of order
that, as there we're four vacant seats in
the house, 1T instead of 179 should con-
stitute quorum. After some debate the
point of order was sustained and the
McCreary Hawaiian resolution was de-
clared passed.
Later, however, by unanimous consent,
it was decided to have another roll call on
the adoption of the resolution and the
speakers decision was withdrawn.
When it became apparent on the second
roll call that the Democrats would have q
quorum the Republicans voted against
the resolution. 1t passed, III to Is.
Boutelle's Hawaiian resolution was lost,
81 to 1911.
This resolution censures Minister Stew
ems course; approves of President Cleve-
lands principle that American interfer-
ence in Hawaii is contrary to our institu-
tions and pronounces against annexation
or protectorate.

 Del Vecho and his wife appeared ta be devoted to one another, but each had an over-fondness for strong drink. The husband had been on the verge of delirium tremens. His actions had recently driven his wife to the use of liquor.
 It is supposed that the couple, while under the Influence of drink, agreed to end life together.
 In the couples room was found g rough piece Of parchment with the fol- lowing scrawled upon it.

 SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 27. - The whaling schooner, Nicoline, Capt. B. E. Hilton, has reached port from Fox Island, Alaska. Capt. Hilton confirms the reported loss of the schooner Emily Schroeder. At the time a fear ful gale was blowing, a heavy sea washed over the point and the natives fled to the hills fearing they would be engulfed by the rising water.
 In speaking of the missionary work in Alaska, Capt. Hilton says: "I think the government should do some- thing for the natives, as they are a quiet and intelligent race of people and are anxious to live like civilized peo- pie. Missionaries should be looked af- ter and good men, and especially wo- men, should go to Alaska. Men should be sent that native would respect, not men that are flthier than the na- tives themselves"
