My DEAR FRIEND-The question Of pro-

many other Intoxicating drinks which are
to be found in our unhappy country is not
new to me. The principle of prohibition
seems to me the only safe and certain rem

opinion has been strengthened by the hare
labor of more than 20 years in the temper

ligence of the formation of Maine Law

WAR TO THE KNIFE.
Mr. English VIII Object Unless He
Gets His own Bill Through.

Mr. English VIII Object Unless He
Gets His own Bill Through.
1t is war to the knife now between Mr..
ben. Bolt" English of New Jersey and the
members Of the House who have little bills
to pass. Ever since this session began Mr..
English has been objecting to unanimous
consent for the passage of Individual bills.
At the same time he noised abroad the in
timatioa that If he could be permitted to
pass his own little bill, the Newark public
building bill. he would cease to block the
wheels of legislation, and all would be
well.
This morning, thinking, perhaps that he
had sufficiently instructed the House In the
premises, Mr.. English resolved to make
another try for his bill. He asked unani-
nous consent for it's consideration, and
stood by the Speakers desk while ii was
being read, trusting and pacifying smile
oversprea ding his features.
us there objection?" asked the Speaker
There was silence for moment. 1t SEEM
ed that NJ man had the nerve to defy the
wrath of Mr.. English, and thereby cut
himself off from chance of passing a bill
for the rest of the session.
Then up rose Chairman Sayres Of Texas
who has his eye on the appropriations and
has favors to ask of no man.
Il object" said Mr.. Sayres, decidedly
The. expectant smile on Mr.. Englishs face
gave way to a dark and ominous frown,
and he shook his head, as if to say "Ha!
'Tis WELL. Having previously announced
his intention to block everything until he
gets his bill, Mr.. English Immediately be-
gan to object again, and also instituted
filibuster against a pending measure. He
says 1t will require quorum to do busi-
ness for the remainder of this session

THE POOLING BILL.
Uncertain Whether the Measure VIII
Pass or Not.


Pass or Not.
Though the vote on the railroad pooling
bill was expected to be taken in the House
this afternoon. neither the advocates nor
opponents of the measure are able to make
any calculation as to their strength. There
has been an unusually strong and active
lobby In favor of the bill reported from
the committee. which is supposed to be
most favorable to the railroad.
The friends of the Cooper substitute,
which lodges more power In the hands of
the interstate commerce commission and
gives them the authority to name the
conditions under which privileges to pool
may be granted. have been working with
great energy. 1t was believed when the
measure was last before the House on
Saturday that the substitute was stronger
than the original proposition and that 1t
would be adopted. This is not as apparent
today, however, and Mr.. Cooper himself
Is hopeful rather than confident of success
Every possible influence which the repre-
sentatives OF the railroad could bring to
bear upon the House has been ayailed Of.
The time between Saturday and this morn
ing has given an opportunity to them to
bring pressure Upon waverfng members
from some of the influential men of their
districts. 1t is impossible to foretell the
result, but 1t looks IL the commit tee
bill had better prospects than at first

THE FIGHT ON BLACKBURN.

Election.

Election.
Special Dispatch to Tho Evening Star.
LEXINGTON. KY, December 11.-Who
Is to be the next United States Senator
from Kentucky to succeed j. c. s. Black
burn? The answer to. this question is
causing a great deal of anxiety among
politicians all over the state. Now, there
is no use in denying tl6 fact that the
present Senator, who wants very much to
succeed himself. Is alarmed at the present
outlook, although to The Evening Star re-
porter who talked with him yesterday in
this city he said that he was perfectly
satisfied with the present situation in the
race.
THE plan of my opponents" said he. lis
to get out candidates from all parts of the
state, each one of whom will be, able to
command the party strength in his par
ticular locality. This is to prevent my
nomination on the first ballot, but l do
not think 1t will succeed"
With Brown. McCreary, Buckner, Stone
and Breckenridge already considered in the
race it looks as IL the Senator were right
in his ideas of the opposition. OF the can
didates named 1t is believed by politicians
here that Gen. Buckner will prove to be the
most formidable antagonist of Blackburn
but one of the shrewdest politicians in the
state said to me today that if 1t was found
that Blackburn could not be beaten by
Buckner a dark horse would be sprung
When / asked who the dark horse would
be he said Carlisle

The Star man could not get a very clear
idea as to how the v ork had been author
ICED. He was given no information which
would indicate that the job had been let
at a competitive figure. The only informa-
tion on the subject was from Mr. Benedict,
who said: at sent for Mr. Friebus and told
him to have this work done in the best,
quickest and cheapest manner possible, be-
cause knew Mr.. Friebus' standing among
architects"
Mr.. Benedict further said that the matter
of wages rested solely between Mr.. Frte-
bus and the men.
All but One.
The Star man also saw Friebus. This
gentleman assured the reporter that there
was no trouble among the men at the
Union building. That last evening he had
paid them all off at the rate Of $3.50 per
day, and that they were perfectly satisfied
with that sum. There was one man to
whom he had paid more. This was Mr..
Rabbit, who had raised all the row, and
who, said Mr.. Friebus, always raised q
row wherever he had worked.

THE MINT ACCOUNTS.
MIR. Preston Has No Knowledge of
Any Shortage.

MIR. Preston Has No Knowledge of
Any Shortage.
Mr.. Preston, director of the mint, said to
a Star reporter today that he has no knowl-
edge of any shortage in the accounts of the
Philadelphia mint since DR.. Townsend en-
tered on duty as superintendent, notwith-
standing published reports to that effect.
In 1S9O-1S91 some 50,OOOOO0 silver dollars
were stored in the large vault at the Phila-
delphia mint under the joint supervision Of
a representative of the mint bureau and
the then superintendent, Col. o. c. Bosby-
shell.
When DR.. Townsend entered upon duty
1T became necessary to count the dollars
in this vault, and 1t was found upon OPEN
ing the same that by reason of a leakage
in the roof and the natural dampness of
the vault nearly all of the bags had rotted
and could not be handled, and many of The
dollars are so dirty from the decayed bags
that they have to be wiped and counted
by hand, which is a slow and tedious pro-
cess. In justice to DR.. Townsend. the di-
rector states that the men handling and
passing the dollars out of the vault are old
employees, selected by Col. Bosbyshel!. whose
son Is his immediate representative, and
who has one of the combinations of the
vault, SO that access to 1t is impossible
without his knowledge, and If, upon final
count, 1t should be found that there is any
shortage, which is not anticipated Col.
Bosbyshell and his bondsmen would be re-
sponsible and not DR.. Townsend.

DISTRICT IN CONGRESS.

Supplementary Court of Appeals Bill.
Senator Pugh today reported favorably
in the Senate. from the committee on ju-
dietary, the Senate bill $685. supplement-
ary to the act approved February o, 1893,
establishing the Court OF Appeals for the
District of Columbia. The bill provides
that nothing contained In this act shall
be construed to affect in any manner the
power and Jurisdiction conferred upon the
Supreme Court of the District by the act of
August 3, 1886, intended to protect the in
terests Of the United States in the Potomac
river flats. 1t also provides that the suit
instituted by the Attorney General in the
District Supreme Court under the act of
1883 shall proceed to a final hearing in the
same manner as though the Court of APP

an immediate consideration and unanimous
ly passed.
The FOrd's Theater Disaster.
There will be a meeting tomorrow morn
ing at 1890 o'clock of the congressional
joint commission on the Ford Theater
disaster In the room of the Distric. COM
mittee of the Senate. This will be the
first meeting of the commission since II

committee to those Senators who had been
working for several months when the last
session closed.
Price of Gas.
After the hearing on the question Of the
municipal building for Washington before
Senators Hunton. Harris. Faulkner and
Mcmillan had closed yesterday afternoon,
the same Senators sat in their capacity as
a subcommittee on the bill to reduce the
price of gas in the District to 81 thousand
feet. and granted hearing to Messrs w.
c. Dodge, Evan H. Tucker and w. ]. Friz-
Zeli, ii committee representing the North
east Washington Association. They argu-
ed at some length in favor Of the bill, and
the Senators took the measure under ad-
visement. after deciding to grant hear
ing to the representatives of the gas COM
pany, and to the District Commissioners.
Mr.. w. c. Dodge laid before the Senators
the report of the Spooner investigation in
to this subject in 1885, to show that the
company is making tremendous profits on
stock that has been watered from 100000
to $2JOO,0O0.

THE HOUSE,

At the opening Of the session of the
House today Mr.. Breckenridge Ky.), from
the committee on appropriations, reported
the urgent deficiency bill.
Mr. Dingley (Me) asked unanimous con-
sent for the consideration Of a resolution
calling en- the Secretary of the Treasury
for information, first as to whether the
articles of the Bering sea tribunal had
resulted last season in saving the fur
seal herds from that destruction they were
intended to prevent; second, information
as to the number and sex of seals killed by
pelagic sealers; third, the present condi-
ton of the fur seal herds on the Pribyloy
Islands. and fourth, the revenue derived by
the government from the seals during the
past and the expenditure of the govern
ment for their protection during the same
period.
Mr. Dingley had read letter from
Henry w. Elliott the seal expert Of Cleve-
land, asserting that $4,000 seals worth
s50O,0O0 had been taken last year by Ca
madam pelagic Sealers; that the Bering
sea articles had proven a fiat failure, and
that unless something Is done to further
protect the Alaskan herd 1t would be en-
tirely extinguished in five years, and that
the S3O0,OO0 of expense inc urred annually
by the United States benefited Canadian
sealers alone. The resolution was adopted

the request he has made on all occasions
when he could get the floor for unanimous
conscn. to consider bill appropriating
s25O,OOO for additional accommodations for
the public building at Newark, Nj, but
Mr. Sayers, chairman of the appropriations
committee, objected. and Mr.. English re-
tired, threatening to continue his objec-
tions to all unanimous consent hereafter.
A moment afterward. when Mr.. Bingham
(Pa.) moved the passage of resolution
giving the AlamOnt water company au-
thorty to build dams across the st. Louis
and Cliquot rivers in the state of Mime
sofa, Mr.. English called a division, made
the point of no quorum and forced a roll
all.
The resolution was adopted; 241-O.
Champ Clark Again.
In the morning hour Mr. Mallory again
called up the bill to promote the efficiency
of the revenue cutter service, which pro-
voked Mr. Champ Clark's remarks on Sat
urday, and today the Mssourian again
took the floor, in pursuance of his avowed
intention of talking the bill to death. The
bill was almost dead, he began by saying.
He was looking into it's open grave and
he proposed to consume his time today in
eulogy of the heroes of the border states
on both sides. He proposed, he said, to
lift them to the highest pinnacle Of glory
Mr. Clark then took off his cuffs and for
forty-fve minutes kept the House In a
roar with humorous and stirring anecdotes
of obscure heroes paying rough and
ready but eloquent tributes to the gallant
deeds of Stag Adams of Kentucky, Gen.
Sickles of New York, w. c. P. Breckn-

The recent movements of the cruiser Co.

yesterday afternoon. They were found to
have been due to a mistake of the cable
company, which, in forwarding the de-

word and ordered the vessel to Kingston
instead Of Blueields. Fresh orders were
sent last night and the Columbia will

POSSIBLE ABANDONMENT
No Estimate Submitted for the Bureau
of American Republics.

The diplomatic and consular appropria-
tion bill will probably be reported tomor-
row. With reference to the failure Of the
Secretary OF State to submit estimates for
the bureau Of American republics provided
for in the bill since the convening Of the
Pan-American congress in the first year
Of Mr.. Harrison's administration, Chair
man McCreary said that the Secretary Of
State had not yet received the report of
the bureau. Some of the countries which
we're parties to the pan-American agree
ment, which provided for the bureau
said he, have not been paying their share
of the expenses, and the United States has
been paying all with the expectation of
subsequent remuneration. We made an
appropriation last year, but the result was
the same. Again the countries did not pay
their pro ratas. i do not know whether or
not the bureaus will be discontinued.
THE appropriation for the nomenclature
of imports and exports will depend on the
continuance of the bureau, as the work is
done by it,
