The Appropriation Bill Discussed in
the House.

HENDERSON AGAINST THE CUTS
AN ERESTING DEBATE

As stated in yesterdays Star, the House
late in the afternoon proceeded to the con-
sideration of the District appropria ton bill
Mr.. Compton explained the bill briefly, and
after having the report read yielded to Mr.
Henderson of Iowa. Mr.. Henderson said:
Mr.. Chairman, this bill, in my opinion
does not come up to the necessities OF the
District of Columbia. AS l shall endeavor
to show, the District is made to feel the
general policy of the administration in what
might be termed bearing the market"
AT a time when the government ought to
be as liberal as would be proper and Just
in view of its great abilities and vast re-
sources it is 'cramping' at various loints
where it should not, and without reason
1t will not do to justify this action by say
ing that Congress has failed in it's duty to
provide sufficient revenue. 1t is very easy
matter for Congress to provide the needed
revenue for this government and for this
District.
A Few Figures.
Now, I want to call attention to a few
figures in connection with the District.
The estimated receipts for the District for
the next fiscal year. the year for which we
are appropriating. this estimate being based
upon the knowledge of the Commissioners
with reference to taxation, etc, are 81, 1854 =
I4O.01. AS the government pays one-balf
of these District appropriations, twice that
amount would be 5000 49, OF. The latter
sum, then, may be stated as the revenues
of the District for the next fiscal year
The amount that the Commissioners esti-
mated as being needed for the District is
ST, iOl Oi9.23, leaving a surplus revenue of
SIS, 4U1.I9, that being the amount less than
the revenues which they ask to be appro-
priated.
This bill carries an appropriation OF ST.
92I, 19.9I. This amount is $l,173. SS4.o % less
than the amount asked for by the Commits
sioners in their estimates, based on the
necessities of the District; and it is s22l -
4i2 less than the amount appropriated for
the current fiscal year. So that with grow
ing necessities and expanding population
we find this cut of SOD 900 in round rum
bers below the appropriations for the cur
rent year; and the amount in the bill is
s., COZ 2S6.0J below the estimated revenues
of the District. So that, will be seen at
a glance, we are cutting in this bill with
out regard to the revenues and without re-
gard to the necessities of the District.
4 Few Leading Cuts.
1 will not stop. Mr.. Chairman, to take I'D
all the items in reference to which this
cutting has been done in making up the
bill. 1 will content myself with recurring

Remodeling lScw Hats.

'Remodeling' Of hats is getting to
be quite a business. To some people
this would seem to be an elegant way
of speaking Of the finishing over. trim
ming over, etc, of old or secondhand
hats, but such is not the case The
great bulk Of hats that are remodel
ed" are new ones, or. more properly
speaking, are unsold ones. They are
not of the up to date pattern and conse-
quently are not salable. The shrewd
and businesslike retailer does not keep
them too long on the shelf. He prefers to
turn them into money, and in order to do
this he sends them to remodeling shop,
where they undergo certain amount
Of manipulation and are placed back
again ON the shelves turned into the
--latest style or the --latest tile" just
as you prefer to have it. The owner of
the hats fails to recognize them when
they are returned to him, but he is glad
to welcome them. The trimmings have
been taken out, and the hats have been
blocked over on the latest blocks and
meet with ready sale. The expense
attached to the blocking over and to
the trimming over is not great.

The sugar bounties paid out this
year. it is said. already amount to
S12.150, 900, and the bounties on the
years crop have not all been paid,
remarks the Springfield Register.
This is the little bride the Mckinley
robber tariff offered the sugar grow
ers OF the country. That bounty,
and the go, 100000 subsidy to the
sugar trust by the half q cent tax on
refined sugar provided by the same
robber tariff, accounts for all the
corruption, scandals and legislative
decentralization Of the year. Nothing
quite so bad figures in the history OF
American politics and legislation,
whereby legislation was prostituted
to the enrichment OF the few at the
expense of the many. Charge it all
up to the Mckinley robber tariff.
And it will he remembered by the
voters of Illinois that the republican
convention OF ex-office holders held
in this city on the 25th ult. en-
dorsed and lauded this corrupt and
corrupting policy and high-handed
robbery Of the people.

yIussulman Marriages.

1t is generally believed in Christian
countries that Mussulman can marry
as many women as he pleases. This is
an error. Whoever he may be and no
matter to what society he may belong
the Mussulman can only have four legi-
innate wives at a time. 1t is only the
number OF odalisks that is unlimited,
and that depends upon the amount Of
q mans fortune. He can have as many
odalisks as he Is able to support. The
children born of odalislSs. or even slaves,
are recognized by law as just on the
same footing as the children born OF
wives. Among the Mussulmans there
are no illegitimate children, apd the
fact that man S mother was a slave is
no dishoIor and no disgrace.-San
Francisco Examiner.
