Washington, Jan. 1.-THE ways and
means committee suffered it's first de-
feat today when, by vote of 112 to
jected Wilson's amendment fixing the
date on which the free wool schedule
would go into effect at August 1, 1894,
and adopted the substitute of Johnson,
of Ohio, a free trader and single
taxer, making it go into effect imme-
diately on the passage of the bill
Many Republicans voted with the radi-
cal Democrats for the substitute
1t was Wilson's intention, had his
amendment prevailed. to have offered
an amendment making the wooden
schedule go into effect Dec 1. 1894, but
when the committee overruled him,
he decided to let the latter schedule
stand and go into effect with the rest
Of the bill in June, 1894
Just before the vote was taken, Will
son stated that jobbers were now hest
tating whether to place their orders
for fall goods here or abroad, and if
the committee amendment carried, the
home manufacturers would make next
falls goods
Only one other amendment was acted
upon today-to allow the free entry
in bond, of machinery as well as the
materials used in the construction of
ships built for foreign account
The rest of the day was spent in dis
cussing Burrows substitute for the
present wool schedule proposed by the
Wilson bill.
At $50, the House took recess until
8 o'clock.
At the night session, sperry, Demo
craft, of Connecticut, made a vicious
assault on the Wilson bill on the
ground that in face of a certain deficit
in the treasury of $40, 0O0, 900 by June
80 next, in the face of the appeal Of the
secretary of the treasury for bond is
sue. the Democratic ways and means
committee had brought in a bill, osten-
sibly to raise the revenues, which, if
passed, would increase the present es-
timated dificit to $145, 0OO, 600. 1t was a
free trade bill, and if the issue be-
tween free trade and protection were
ever presented to the people of the
country, the verdict would be over
whelmingly in favor of protection.
The other speakers were Bower, Hun
ter, Hulick and Post.

The Latest Rumor Concerning the
Brazilian Insurgents.

New York, Jan. 1S.-The Herald's
Montevideo special says: 1t is doubted
here if Mello will be able to muster suf-
fieient men to warrant him in making
landing anywhere near Rio. The
correspondent at that city sends word
that the Aquidaban is expected to
leave the harbor again soon in search
OF soldiers. Peixoto, in the meantime
continues sending troops to Nictheroy
as he evidently expects the rebls to
attack 1T in force before long. Marshal
Conrado Memyar and General Argolio
nave both gone to Nictheroy to take
commands and it is estimated the num-
Der of Peixoto's troops there exceeds
5,UUO. The rebels in the launches and
the Cobras Island garrison maintain
their fire upon the city of Rio day and
might, with the rapid-fire guns, killing

This has reused much ill-feeling
among even the friends of the rebels
who protest against the wanton des-
truction of life. Continuous attacks

His Right to issue Rnnss.

Washington, Jan. H. The sub-con-
mittee of the judiciary committee, to
which was referred the resolution of
Representative Bailey, stating the Sec
rotary Of the treasury has no right to
issue bonds to supply the current
treasury deficit, held a meeting today.
Representative Goodnight, member of
the subcommittee, desired to confer
with the secretary Of the treasury be-
fore voting upon the resolution. and
in order to enable him to do so. the
committee adjourned until tomorrow.
This does not, however, delay the pro-
gress of the committee, because the full
committee could not receive its report
before the regular meeting on Friday
next There seems to be no doubt the
subcommittee will make a favorable
report on the resolution.

THE STORY TOLD BY swINBuRNE.
a Better Selection for Stationing the
Troops CouId BE Made.


Washington, Jan. -17.-Lieutenant-
Commander Swineburne, of the Boston,
was the only witness before the Senate
subcommittee of investigation of the
Hawaiian question today. He is the
officer who had active command of the
American troops on shore in Honolulu
at the time of the revolution. and his
testimony is considered important, as
lit bears upon some points which have
beeRe.in dispute, and to which much
Importance is attached. He was ques-
toned concerning the landing and the
location of the troops in Arion hall and
the time of the surrender of the sta
ton house. He was also asked to ex-
plain how the troops CHANGED to To-
cate at Arion hall, and was reminded
of the charge made by Blount and the
friends of the queen that, of all places.
this was the one best calculated to
serve the purposes of the provisional
government, being located just across
a narrow street from the government
building. where they would prove a
menace to the queens forces 1t is
understood Swineburne admitted that
q more fortunate selection could have
been made and said he had previous to
landing, advised that some other place
be chosen.
In the main, however, his testimony
corroborated the statements of Min
lister Stevens and the officers of the
provisional government. He contend
ed there had not been any conspiracy
involving the naval force. Swine
burne was also reminded of the dis
crepancies in the statements concern
ing the time of the surrender of the
station house, and said this occurred
two or three hours after the landing
of the Boston's troops, or about 7:SO
