CARLIsLE's CURRENCY BILL.
Springer Says it Will Pass the House
After Three or Four Days
Discussion.

discussion,
WASHINGTON, Dec. 24,-Represen-
tative Springer, the chairman of
the House Committee on Banking
and Currency, and manager of the
House, said to me today that it was
probable that general debate on
bill would continue for three or four
days after the reassembling of Con
gress and that bill would then be
considered in the fve-minute rule
for a few days, when vote would
be taken on it's passage, Mr.,
Springer said the disposition on the
part of the advocates was to modi-
fly the bill in any respect that would
make it more acceptable to the
House and would at the same time
preserve its essential features. He
said that when Mr. Carlisle drew
the bill originally he had to take in
to consideration the situation in
Congress. He was forced to CON
slider what might be possible as well
as what was desirable
The Republic correspondent asked
Mr.. Springer what he thought of
the apparently growing sentiment
in the House in favor Of the retire
ment Of legal tender notes, so as to
stop the endless drain upon gold
reserve in the treasury. He said
he knew there was a strong senti-
ment in the House in favor of put
ting a provision for the retirement
Of these notes, but he did not know
what would result from it, lie said
that the strongest form in which
that proposition could be presented
would be to provide for the issue of
a popular loan. He said the bonds
if issued, ought to be in small de-
nominations and ought to be placed
on sale in the post offices, so that
they would be within the reach of
the people, and so that a working
man who wanted to buy himself a
home or for any other purpose
could invest in these bonds, which
would earn him a small percentage
as long as he kept his money invest
ed and which could be realized upon
at a moments notice when he want
cd his money,
Senator Teller, who is the leader
Of the free coinage men in the Sen
ate, is of the opinion THAI whatever
happens to the bill in the House it
cannotpass the Senate, eitherin its
present shape or in any other shape.
Leaving out Of consideration al
together the question Of the free
coinage Of silver and discussing the
the bill simply as a bill to reform
the paper currency issues of the
country. Mr., Teller believes it is al
together wrong and vicious in prin-
ciple, He takes the ground that
the people Of the country have been
accustomed to a currency for so
many years in which every dollar
was as good as any other dollar and
in which every dollar would cir
culate in one State as well as in
any other State that they will not
submit to any legislation that would
change this, He says that II the
pending bill should pass in its pres
ent form the notes issued under it
would at once be discredited in the
eyes OF the people The money
would be strange to them, They
would only understand that the
Government was not behind 1t and
that il was not as safe as the ma

ment issues to which they had been
accustomed for so may years and

| Elkins, W. Va, Sept. 5.-The Repub-
licans of the Second congressional dis
trict nominated Aston Gordon Dayton,
of Barbour county, to run against
Chairman w. L. Wilson for Congress.
Ex-President Harrison arrived at L
p. m, and is the guest of ex-Secretary
Elkins. A committee was appointed to
call upon the ex-president and invite
him to address the convention. He was
greeted with loud applause.
Mr.. Harrison, after stating he had
not expected to make a speech, said in
part:
"You are assembled to discharge a
public duty, and 1 will not, therefore,
detain you with any speech. This dis
trict will be before all eyes this au-
tumn. This contest is not local. 1t
happens your present representative
had been assigned to prepare the tariff
bill and has attached his name to 1t.
1t is, therefore, expected his conduct
will be subjected to severe and careful
scrutiny. Fortunately, the proclama-
ton has been made by President CleVe-
land and Mr.. Wilson that the tariff bill
is not a fnality. but this distinctive
warfare is to go on. If you approve
this, show it by returning Mr. Wilson
to Congress; but, if on the other hand,
you have felt the effects or the depreS-
sion; if you think more of those who
prefer to lead the country through the
slough of dependency, show it by de-
feating him. L cannot say much of the
last administrations delicacy forbids me
to say much of this, "but if you consid-
er the heads of departments and sub
ordinate officers, you will see that there
was an attempt to act for the best in
terests of all people. can not say how
we have succeeded, but only that we
have done tine best we could do" If
the people at elections this fall con-
denim the recent action on the tariff,
we shall have an end of the tariff tink-
erings. When the tide of emigration
started from the seaboard it turned to-
wards West Virginia. Now the spring
of commerce is coursing through your
fertile valleys. The pick and shovel
are busy. Is this a time, through the
cheap ocean rates, to bring-into compe-
tition with your products cheap coal Of
Nova Scotia? / speak as a patriotic
who feels an interest in the
honest people. To your Judgment by the
quiet November firesides this question
must be settled, and may you have the
to do your duty"
EX-President Harrison was received
with enthusiasm, and his brief speech
applauded at various points.

The carpenters tried in vain to stop the

the trying conditions without loss of life.
Nothing except the sailors bags were

them lost expensive scientific instru-
ments and hunting equipments.

was without incident, other than the ad-
verse winds and insufficient provisions,
only ten days supplies for forty men
having been placed on the Rigel, and the
addition of the Miranda's crew making
ninety-one persons on board this little i3
craft. The passengers slept in the hold
on top of the salt fish. Gulls and other
sea birds constituted the only fresh meat
of the party for the last ten days.
Too great credit cannot be given to
Captain Dixon and the crew of the R1gel
for their efforts in behalf of those whom
they had rescued. The party will have a
banquet at South Sydney before leaving;
at which time handsome testimonial
will be presented to Captain Dixon. -,

A Vanderbilt Extension.

Chattanooga, Tenn, Sept. 5.-From a
thoroughly reliable source, the Times
is informed that the underwriters, as
they may be termd, of the reorganiza-
ton scheme of the Richmond and West
Point terminal and the East Tennessee,
Virginia & Georgia railway, are none
other than the Rothschilds of London
and Paris and the Vanderbilts of New
York-Cornelius and William K. The
Rothschilds have one-quarter, the Van
derbiltS have one-quarter, Drexel

Morgan one-quarter. The reorganiza-
ton provided. for S30,000,OOO of new cap
ital. and it is this sum that the quar-
tette has agreed to supply and more
If necessary. There is now very little
doubt that the southern railway pro-
ject is simply an extension of the Van
derbilt system into and through the
south.

Winnipeg, Man., Sept. "a RAPPORT
age dispatch to the Free Press says:
Rainy river, on both sides for it's
whole length, excepting ten miles at the
mouth, is one huge mass of flames. The
Minnesota woods, where there are but
few settlers. are all burning and at
Barewick the fires were so fierce that
they jumped across the river, setting
the Canadian woods afire. The Ontario
side is well settled and the people are
losing heavily. Mrs. James and four
children living on Grassy river, were
burned to death and other casualties
are reported. All settlers back from
Rainy river have been burned out, los
ing everything.

SWEETS OBJEU IONS.
He Also Thinks Carey's Bill Would
Do More Harm Than Good.

Washington, Sept. 5.-Apropos of the
Denver irrigation congress, Representa-
tive Sweet, of Idaho, member of the
irrigation committee in charge of irri-
cation legislation during the last ses-
sion of congress, has this to say:
Il, of course, have no notion of what
may be done, or what the convention
expects to do The House committee
having charge of the matter reported
Ia bill during the late session looking to
such surveys in the arid lands as will
enable congress to make appropriations
for the reclamation of these lands. It
is national question, and the nation
should protect the settler until the lat
ter is settled on his land and is the
owner of his water right. The propos-
ed plan Of turning the land over to the
state is impracticable, and Is the be-
ginning of a system of landlordism
that I hope never to see in America.
The government reclaim these lands
with money borrowed at per cent.
The expense to the state-when the
state can obtain it at all-would be
double that rate, and as the cost of re-
clamation would doubtless be included
in the price at which land is sold to
the settler, the duty of the nation be-
comes obvious. 1t Is said congress will
not appropriate tne money. am sat
isfied congress will make the appro-
priation, beginning cautiously, and fur
Their, from actual investigation, I am
satisfied that. there would be more op-
position developed to transfer of the
lands than to the irrigation appropria-
lions. The east is beginning to realize
that 1t cannot allow the system of job
berry that would enevitably follow a
transfer OF lands to take
place, and it also realizes that the
work of development must be common
ced. When Interstate questions are in
volved, such as storage in Colorado
and Wyoming for Kansas and Nebras-
ka, such questions the national govern
ment alone can dispose of. The conven-
ton may be of service If it represents
the real wishes Of the farmers of the
arid regions and the best interests of
all the people"

Pine City, Mimi, Sept. 5.-The heroes
of the forest fires were many In the
front rank must be placed Engineer
Ed B. Berry and Conductor Powers. of
the Eastern Minnesota freight, AIS peo-
pie, whom they picked up and carried
back to safety in the box cars, being
carried through the midst of
the furnace in the face of the
knowledge that another train in
the opposite direction had the right of
way, and was liable to be met any
where in the dense smoke and fierce
J flames, and a terrible ride over the 100
~~lot bridge across the Kettle river
whica was blazing and trembling under
the wheels, apparently ready to fall
Fifteen minutes after the train
passed, the bridge went down. 1t was
at this time that a crowd of alleged
men crowded into the cab and begged
Engineer Berry to uncouple the train
and carry them to safety, leaving the
people in the cars to perish. They
were sIfmmarily thrown out by the
engineer and the train load of precious
freight finally hauled to a place of
safety.
One of the most pathetic and heart
Tending tales is that of James Kelly
for O'Brien Bros. whose camp is eight
miles from Hinckley. When the fire
drew perilously close to the camp, and
ley could fight it no longer, they
erted to walk to Sandstone, seven
Bhes. They struggled through the
eplistering atmosphere, encouraging at
every step and picking each other. up
when either fell. Finally, about
quarter of a mile behind Kettle river,
Kelly became exhausted and Hogan
could not urge him on. BY this time
Hogan's feet were so badly blistered
that he was compelled to take to his
hands and knees Kelly, in the mean
time, had dragged himself to the head
of the ravine upon. which he lost his
head, and falling, rolled over and over
until he struck the bottom OF the gully
dead.
Hogan all Saturday night lay in the
ravine. and on Sunday morning started
for Sandstone on his hands and knees.
Fully six miles more, incredible as it
may seem, he crawled, reaching Sand
stone after having spent the entire time
since Saturday night on the way. His
hands and feet suffered and he will
bear the marks to his grave.
