TWO-THiRDS MAJORITY.
Unofficial List of Members of the Next
Congress Completed.

Not until now have the officials Of the
House felt sufficient confidence in their un-
official list, OF representatives In the Fifty
fourth Congress to send 1t to the printer.
AS finally prepared the list shows pa re-
publicans, lOi democrats and six popuists,
one silver and one vacant.
The republicans will constitute more than
two-t thirds of the House membership. Sec
tionally, the republican majority will be
divided as follows: New England states, 26;
old middle states, &c. middle-western states,
%; far-western states, %; southern states,
81.
The democrats secure only thirteen MEM
bers in the northern states. California and
Massachusetts contribute one each; Illinois,
Ohio and Pennsylvania two each, and New
York five. The democrats secure six solid
state delegations those of Arkansas,
Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi and
South Carolina. The republicans secure
nineteen solid delegations those of Con-
necticut Delaware, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa.
Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana,
New Hampshire, New Jersey, North
Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South
Dakota, Vermont, Washington, West Vir-
ginia and Wisconsin.
In all twenty-eight contests may be made
from the southern states, and a majority
of them are to be instituted by republican
candidates against democrats, but 1t now
appears probable that there will not be so
many. Mr.. Myers, who, it was expected
would wage a contest fer the seat from the
sixth Arkansas district, is now quoted as
saying that he will make no effort to
secure the seat in the face of the fact that
his opponent is credited with 5000 ma
jority. Late advices >also indicate that
Lee Crandau will abandon the contest
against General Wheeler for the scat from
the eighth Alabama district.

Dress of the British Army.
From the London News

frOm tne LONDON news.
The unsuitability of the present regula-
ton dress Of our army for fighting and
campaign purposes is held by Maj. Gen.
Sir William Butler to be demonstrated by
the fact that whenever little war is an
nounced the officer who has been fortunate
enough to be selected for service instantly
discards all idea Of proceeding to the scene
Of strife In the habiliments he has hereto
fore been wont to wear. Going straight to
his tailor, he orders a fighting kit more or
less In accordance. so far as clothing is
concerned. with what he has worn at polo.
deer stalking or salmon fishing. Canadian
homespun. Bedford cord. Indian kah,
French merino, moleskin, are severally or
collectively called into use. Indian putties
pith, leather or cork helmets, puggarees Of
various colors, strange sword belts, boots
OF bun, gauntlets, revolver cases and broad
swords appear as II by magic; and the man
who, during his period of tuition at Alder
shot or Curragh, has been rigidly restrain
ed to the eighth Of an inch in the width of
his trouser stripe and the exactest measure
of cuff and collar becomes all at once the
most variously dressed and accoutered

Sir William adds that no army In the

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE
Mr.. Cleveland Will Probably Complete the
Document Today.
1t II Expected He VIII be Able to
Have n Cabinet Meeting TOmOr-
row or Saturday.

The President spent Thanksgiving day
try home. on the Woodley Lane road. He
was engaged most of the day In the prep
aration Of his annual message and made
good progress on 1t, despite the physical
disadvantages he Is laboring under at
present. 1t is now practically finished. All
the principal matters have been disposed
of, with the exception Of the finishing
touches. which will probably be added be-
fore the day is over.
His rheumatic troubles are yielding to
medical treatment, and his condition to-
day Is reported to be so favorable that
there Is a strong probability of calling a
meeting Of his cabinet at the White House
tomorrow. In case he does not feel well
enough for the trip tomorrow, the meeting
will be postponed until Saturday. The
present conditions, however, justify the be-
lief that he will meet the members of his
cabinet around the council board at the
white House tomorrow for the purpose of
finally considering his message to Con-
gress. This Is the usual course in such
matters.
The message will be copied in duplicate
by the clerks CT the White House between
the time Of its final approval and Monday,
when 1t will be submitted to both Houses
OF congress as soon as they have effected
their organization, q business that will
probably take only a short time. Although
the official copies will be in manuscript
IN accordance with custom, other copies
ior the press and for more general dis
tr1bution Will be prepared In pamphlet
form at the government printing Office

CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.
Annual Meeting of the League Devot-
ed to Its Propagation.

The annual meeting of the National Civil
Service Reform League will be held in
Chicago December L. and ID, in the rooms
Of the Commerce Club. A president and
vice presidents will be elected, reports and
resolutions be considered, and routine mat
tiers disposed of. Essays will be read in
the afternoons of both days In the Audi
torium Recital Hall upon the subject Of
civil service reform, and among those who
will appear in this connection are Mr..
Charles j. Bonaparte, Mr.. Charles 3. Will
by, Mr.. c. p. Wallbridge, Mr.. Herbert
Welsh, Mr.. Richard Henry Dana and Mr..
VIM. Dudley Foulke. The annual address
will be delivered Wednesday evening. De-
cember II, at Central Music Hall. by Mr..
Carl Schurz, the president of the league.
1t Is recommended that those associa-
lions which have not yet chosen delegates
to the general committee shall do SO at
once, and that all the associations shall
be represented at the annual meeting by as
many of their members as can conveniently
be present.
1t is proposed to increase the interest and
effect of the public meetings by inviting
to them the members Of the Anti-Spoils
League, and also representatives Of the
various good government clubs and other
organizations of kind and character
which hold the reform Of the civil service
to be an indispensable part Of any perma-
nent change for the better in public ad-
ministration.
The Washington association will prob
ably send several delegates to the league
meeting.

IMPEACHMENT PROBABLE.
Damaging Testimony I'm the Investi-
cation of Judge Kicks.

S"sAoA Va SuuSo
1t Is probable that the Senate will be en-
gagged in an impeachment TRIAL soon after
the holidays. The committee conducting
the investigation of charges against Judge
Kicks. United States district Judge Of the
northern district Of Ohio, have finished
taking testimony. and today returned to
Washington. The newspaper reports of
the testimony taken by the committee at
Cleveland indicate damaging testimony
against Judge Kicks. The defense will be
allowed some time for the further pre-
sentation Of their case in writing, but the
expectation Is that the committee report,
which will be prepared by Representative
Bailey of Texas, will be ready before the
holiday recess Is taken.
The report will be first acted on by the
House judiciary committee. 1t ia not
thought that they will consume E,uch time
in consideration of the case, as the testi-
mony will all be before them, and Is said
to be of character not to excite much
doubt. 1t Is believed that a resolution of
Impeachment will be reported promptly by
the committee and that the case will be
sent to the Senate for trial.
1t Is not often that the Senate Is called
upor to act In it's judicial capacity on i'm
parchment and the case will probably be
one OF considerable interest The charges
grow out Of alleged illegal collection Of
fees by Judge Kicks.

GAS MOTOR STREET CARS.
New Mode of Propulsion Being Favor
ably Considered in Germany.

According to a report to the State De-
partment from Frank Mason, United States
consul general at Dresden, the development
of the gas motor as a means Of propelling
street cars is progressing in Germany to a
point where they may be reasonably ex-
pected to displace all other motors, even
electric, on average railroads. Great i'm
provements have been made in the mechan-
ism recently, SO that they are now simpli-
fled to a point of economy and efficiency
which may fairly challenge expert Gcriti-
cism. At the beginning of August last
four cars of the latest type were put in
regular service upon a suburban railway
leading from Dresden along a busy boule-
ward to Widen Mann, distance of nearly
three miles. These cars have since been in
daily service from O'Clock am. till 10
pm, working side by side with horse cars,
with which the road was originally equip
ped, so that a close temporary comparison
Is offered between the two systems, oper-
ated under Identical conditions. Outwardly
the cars appearance is precisely similar
to that Of an ordinary douhle-decked horse
car. All the machinery is inclosed and
concealed frcm sight; there Is no smell
of gas, no noticeable heat from the en-
CINE and no undue noise jar when the
car Is stopped or set in motion, which is
done by means of a knob. The three
months practical working of the cars
showed that all claims had been realized.
The consul general incloses with his re-
port a set of drawings showing the de-
tails of the mechanism and the general ap-
pearance of the car.

CIVIL SERVICE EXTENSION.
Secretary Smith VIII Advocate CIassi
hcntiOn Of the Indian Service.

Secretary Smith will urge large extern
sions to the civil service in his depart
ment during the year. He will urge that
the entire Indian service be classified, es-
pecially as to all employees at agencies and
the school service. In the Indian office
proper he will probably recommend that
the classified service include all offices ex-
cept the Indian commissioner and the as
sistant. The Secretary believes that in the
Indian service employees are needed who
are familiar with the work, and upon the
reservation these should be employees who
are acquainted with the manner Of living
Of the Indians and whom the Indians I'M
derstand In the Interior Department and
it's various bureaus 1t Is probable that the
Secretary will recommend that all en-
ployes except those personal to the Secre-
tary and the heads of bureaus be put I'M
der the regulations of the civil service
law. Speaking of civil service extensions,
he said that he hoped to see 1t applied
generally to the department so that its
director might be relieved OF the pressure
that is upon him from the time an ad-
ministration begins until there has been a
complete change made in all the offices out
side of the classified service.

SOUTHERN LUMBER.
Indications of an Increased Demand
for the Product in Canada.


for the Product in Canada.
A sign of the times that should be of
special interest to the south is conveyed In
report to the State Department from
United States Consul Bishop at Chatham,
Canada, upon the general subject Of the
effect Of the new tariff In western Onta-
rio. Among other things he notes the fact,
that the large stave industry there. and
mills in Michigan, as well as Ontario. have
resumed manufacturing, but have been
compelled to give the benefit of the re-
moval Of the ten per cent duty to the con-
sumner. Contracts for next year will
show saving to the consumer OF
from five to ten per cent. and
with only five years timber ahead to cut
from It IL not likely they will go any low
err. The capitalists behind this industry
are buying timber tracts In the southern
states for future supply. Canadians are
also beginning to buy yellow pine from the
southern states In larger quantities for
flooring. joisting and inside finishing. The
freight from Alabama is about equal to
the cost f. o. b. there. but its sale In Can
ada will steadily increase. Besides cherry
and walnut, Norway pine, oak and poplar
used in Canada must come from the
United States In future as the native stock
Is nearly exhausted.

THE NICARAGUA CANAL.
Bills Pending In Congress May BE
Considered This Session.


The action OF Great Britain with refer
ence to the Mosquito territory has aroused
some inquiry relative to the status of the
Nicaragua canal bill in Congress. as to
the prospect of it's favorable consideration
during the approaching session. Bills were
introduced during the last session both in
the Senate and House, and were quite
similar in essential features. both provid-
ing for an issue of S7OOOOOO worth of
bonds. the payment of which is to be as
suTed by the government. The Senate bill
was introduced by Senator Morgan, chair
nan of the committee on foreign relations
and the House bill by Representative Nal
lOry OF Florida, of the committee on in
terstate commerce. Both bills have been
reported from committee, each to it's re-
spectiye house and each by it's author
but neither has had any consideration at
the hands OF either the Senate or the
House.
None OF the especial champions of the
bills Is at present in the city, but it is
generally understood that there will be an
effort to secure consideration during this
session. The friends of the measure appre-
ciate that there will be many obstacles to
overcome in both houses but think that
some Of the opposition which developed
a few years since will not appear when the
bills shall again be brought to the atten-
tiCn of Congress.
Gen. Catchings was today asked what he
thought OF the prospect for the bills. While
not a member of the House committee
having the bill in charge, his position as
q member of the committee on rules makes
his opinion worth considering. He said:
The House has not yet had opportunity
to maturely consider this canal question,
and has not made up his mind on it. 1t is
too big problem for session as short
as that which is approaching. Consequent
ly. do not believe that we shall solve the
canal problem this winter"
Senator Morgan in his report quotes
figures, giving sS7, 1880 as the outside
cost of the canal, and he says that the
promoters of the enterprise have expended
So, O99,9Tl of their own money upon it.
