Carlisle is DisturDe d.

WASHINGTON, Feb, 10.-Secretary
Carlisle is considerbiy disturbed over
the terms of the bill to coin the seign-
forage in the treasury. Mr.. Carlisle
bas been examining the bill closely.
He discovers that under It's operation
not only would silver certificates to the
amount Of $50 ,Oo0, 600 be Immediately .
issued, bat that it would put in circu-
lation % 100000 silver dollars that
have been lying in the treasury vaults
for some years. Authority for circulat-
ing these silver dollars is found in Sec
ton 3 Of the bill, which provides that
when the Sherman legal tender coin
notes are redeemed with gold they
shall be Immediately destroyed. and
that in lieu thereof silver dollars shall
be made Immediately available for ex-
penditures. Under the Sherman act
2S ,000, 900 silver dollars were coined
during the first year of the opera ton.
Secretary Carlisle came to the capitol
this morning and conferred with sever
al Democratic members of the house
regarding this matter. It is under
stood that the secretary will prepare a
Substitute for the Bland bill that will
permit simply the coinage of the seign-
forage and to use it as fast as practic-
able. 1t is not believed that Mr.. Bland
Will accept Secretary CaTlisle's suages-
ton, but he will press consideration OF
his measure. The Democratic major
ity is more or less divided regarding the
contention of the secretary, and Mr..
Bland and many leading Democra Is are
/ disposed to throw their influence in the
secretary's favor. The secretary's sub
stitute has net yet been drawn, but il
will probably be sent to the house to-
morrow and placed in the hands Of one
Of the secretaries for changes, who will
offer it IS a substitute for the Bland
bill when the latter comes before the
house.

For an Appropriation.

WASHINGTON, February 10.-Senators
Berry and Jones, Congressman Neill
and Dlnsmore appeared before the
Committee on Rivers and Harbors
yesterday in behalf of the appropriation
for White River. They strongly urged
the needs of that magnificent stream
tor continued government improvement
and especially the upper river. 1t was
shown to the committee that through
misconstruction of the law of last year
the river above Batesville was almost
totally ignored by the engineers.
Especial stress was laid upon the
fact that White River is the only outlet
for the largest territory and most
thickly populated section in the United
States without railroad facilities, and
that the people We're thoroughly arous-
ed as to the needs of the river and an
appropriation looking to it's improve
ment was earnestly desired by them.
The committee was thoroughly in
formed regarding the vast mineral re-
sources of Northern Arkansas, depend
ing absolutely upon the river for trans
portation to the markets of the world.
1t is believed that the committee is
fully aware of the Importance of this
stream, and that they will deal literally
with it when they report the bill.

AN Extensive BLIZZARD.
SAID TO sE The WORST STORM IN TIE
NORTHWEST IN SEVERAL YEAHS,
Railroad and Street Car Service Compelled t,
suspend-Drop in Tempersturc Expected.

CHICAGO, Feb, 12.-This was the
worst storm Chicago has ever known.
During this evening the storm in
creased in violence, the wind at times
rising in the velocity Of Is miles an
hour and the snow growing heavier.
By o. clock in the afternoon business
of all kinds was on a standstill. AT
that time the big Office buildings were
practically deserted, the people having
started for home in order to do their
travelling before nightfall. Trains
were terribly delayed during the alter
noon, and tonight most of the
eastern roads did not send out trains Of
any kind. Trains going out and COM
ing in, stuck.
Owing to the driving snow in which
it was impossible to see so feet q wreck
occurred on the Like Shore road at
Seventy-ninth street and Stony Island
avenue. Fireman Luther S. Webster,
of Elkhart, Ind, was caught between
the engine and tender and badly
crushed Several freight cars were
knocked into kindling wood. On the
streets collisions and accident were
numerous.
A gale from the lake continued to
blow furiously well into the night wi th-
out abatement, and before it was
driven binding snow, which formed
in drifts in the streets along the lake
front, rendering them almost impass
able. The high wind caused numerous
fires and it was almost impossible fol
the fireman to get through the streets
The street car tracks are practically
blockaded by vehickles and the snow
is too deep on the sides of the streets
TO admit any progress at all.
ST. Louis, Feb. i2.-The storm which
begun Yesterday, ended about l o,cloef
today, after having run I varied course
including rain, sleet, drizzle and snow
each repeated two or three times dur
ing the night. At present there lie'
on the ground here four inches of ice
snow and slush, which has PRACTICAL,
interrupted all.traf1ic. Telegraph, tele
phone and electric wires are down, and
as a result, deaths of animals from the
live currents have been reported nu
merously, but so far no human beings
have been injured.
I rooaiyOI bara from in +

being four or FIVE hours, and even
more, late.
The promise now is for a very SHARP
drop in temperature, which will turn
the present slush to ice and make th'
situation even worse than it is now.

Chiefs of Police to Meet.

Chief of Police Mcmahon of Little
Rock has issued the following call to
the Chiefs of the state to be held in
that city on March 20:
To the Chiefs OF Police of Arkansas:
Upon the undersigned, serving as vice
president for the State of Arkansas of
the National Chiefs of Police Union,
has developed the duty of calling a
meeting of the chiefs Of the state with
view to perfecting state organiza-
ton. The meeting has been called for
March 20, 1894, to meet in the city hall
at Little Rock and | expect you to take
part in its deliberations. | am greatly
interested in is success, and venture
to suggest some reasons why every
Chief of Police in the state, who can
possibly attend, should do so and take
part in the meeting. Arkansas, because
of its peculiar geographical situation
for health, is the resort as well as the
thoroughfare of professional criminals.
Hot Springs, in the southwest, with its
marvellous healing waters; Texarkana
and Fort Smith in the west, Newport,
Pine Bluff and Helena in the east, serve
in certain sense, as cities of refuge to
those who have committed crimes
within the borders, With great rail
way lines traversing her territory in
every direction, bringing all the large
cities to our very doors, bounded large
| ly by rivers which are arteries of crime,
it is well worth the while of those who
are charged with maintaining to q large
extent the peace and order Of the COM
monwealth to meet and reason together
not only as to how they may more sue
cessfully defeat the purposes of the
criminals who are continually pouring
in upon US, but also how our laws re-
lating to tramps, warrants, and other
mendicants may be SO improved that
our rapidly growing ci ties mas not nur-
ture aud create criminals.
Crime, like commerce, has its greater
and smaller centres, and each of these
has its clearing house. The profession.
ais of every city know we'll their breth,
ren in every other city, and how te
communicate with them promptly
Among the police organizations of Ar
Kansas there is very little correspond
ence, indeed, very little acquaintance
where there should be thorough con
cert of action in uniform and systemat
ic methods of communication and dis.
semination of informatiod concerning
criminals.
One great object Of the proposed
meeting is to enable the chiefs to get
acquainted with each other.
Interchange of experiences will bring
to the front their common needs, and
the cooperation necessary to meet
them will follow. Let no chief hesi.
tate to take part in the meeting because
be commands small force, compared
with those of larger cities. Frequently
the smaller city, because of its location
is Of the greatest Importance. Let each
chief come to the meeting determined
to help and be helped, and the result
will be an organization which will be OF
the greatest benefit, not only to eacf
individual member, but to the state al
large. Respectfully,
FRANK MCMAHON,
Vice President of Arkansas of the
National Police Union, and Chief OF
Police, Little Rock.
