Mr.. Reeds Bond proposition.

which the committee will adopt pro-
vides first for the reduction of the rate
of interest on bonds to be issued under
the acts Of 1870 and 1875 for the pur-
pose Of resuming specie payment and
protecting the specie reserve from A to
B per cent and second for a low rate,
denominational bond, which would
practically be a debt certificate to be
used to supply deficiencies. in the rev.
enues. By the terms of the bill it is
probable that provisions will be in.
serted to provide that the. proceeds. Of
any bonds issued under the act Of 1870
and 1875 as attended shall go to the.
reserve and of the latter bonds to pay
current expenses. In this way sep
arate. account can be kept and the pro-
ceeds Of bonds soldsasar! one purpose can
not be used for thesether.s
The Proposed Tariff Changes.
The details of the tariff changes will
furnish the most difficult task in franz
ing the bill. There is practical
unanimity Of sentiment SO far as can be-
learned among the Republican members
of the committee for a duty on wool
and compensating duties, on woollens.
There is some discussion of a PROPOSE
tion to make horizontal increase on
all the schedules except sugar of from
Is to 20 per cent, but that is opposed in
certain quarters as being not on protec-
ton lines. It seems probable, therefore,
that wool and woollens, lumber and
various articles will be selected. While
there is, it is said, some difference Of
opinion on this point it seems certain
that there will be time limitation OF
2 years or 80 months on the life of the
tariff propositions of the bill.
Democrats Will Oppose the Bill.
AS to the attitude of the Democrats
toward the bill, it seems probable that
it will be opposed by most, if not all OF
them The silver Democrats are not
disposed to vote for any bond PROPOSE
ton, first because they believe there is
another remedy in the hands of the ez-
ecutive-the redemption of notes in
silver. They might vote for coin bones
to borrow money if the executive said
that money was needed to meet current
expenses, but as the demand for au-
thority to issue bonds is not based csl
that ground, they will oppose it.

THE KICKAPOO OPENING.

WASHINGTON. May 6.-Within thirty days President Cleveland will issue his proclamation opening the Kickapoo reservation to settlement, and the thousands of settlers who have pa tiently withstood privations to retain place Ipon the border of that richest section of all Oklahoma may make their preparations for a race which congress delivers over to the swift and the strong.
 l is entirely probab able, although the probability yet lacks the sanction of of cial action, that Oklahoma will in advance be permitted to make its school indemnity selections of 50,o0o acres within the limit of the reserva- tion. It is believed, however, by those most conyersant that a fortnight should le sufficient for that purpose, and in tiat'event the presidents proclamation will be issued within three weeks and 3!O square miles of the most fertile iand in the southwest will then be opened to settlement.

Chinese Wish to Pay Increased Indemnity
 Instead Of Ceding Territory.
 LONDON, May "A dispatch to the Times from Shanghai says that the em- peror has sent another urgent com mand to Viceroy Lii Hung Chang to go to Pekin in order to consult with the emperor in regard to the ratification of the treaty of peace arrived at be- tween China and Japan. Prince Kung, president of the Chinese council of ministers and head of the foreign of flee, who has been sick for some time, has also urged upon him the necessity of his presence at Pekin, it being inti- mated that unless he goes the labor of the Chinese peace commission will be lost.
 It is considered certain at Shanghai that the Chinese ministers and princes will petition that vastly increased in- demnity be paid to Japan in lieu of a cession of the Manchurian territory. The officials of the maritime province of Fo-Kien, in which the island of Formosa is situated, have sent memo rial to the throne protesting against the cession of the island. They offer to contribute the purchase money. Gen. Sung has declared to the emperor his intention to fight to the death sooner than surrender Manchurian ter ritory to the Japanese.

 PoRT TOWNSEND, Wash, May 6.-Ad- vices from Kodiack island, Alaska, yesterday, say that terrible north east gale swept over that section of country on April II, wrecking the seal ing schooner George R. White, of Seattle, and seventeen of the crew were drowned and frozen to death on the barren shore. The eleven sur vivors left relate the story. The vessel struck a reef at midnight, 9 miles from shore. A gale blowing and mingled with a binding snowstorm, with the mercury degrees below zero, made the situation extremely desperate. Several of the crew were drowned in the surf and others froze to death on the beach, Four days after the disaster party of native hunters passed by and rescued the survivors. The schooner Kodiack was wrecked in the same storm, 20 miles distant, and was total loss, but no lives were lost.

 Criticise TemperateIy.

WASHINGTON, May 6.-President Cleveland's letter to Gov. Stone, of Mississippi, is construed here to mean that otficeholders who differ in opinion from the administration must be tenn perate in their criticism. From time to time complaints are made by ad- ninistration democrats throughout the states that United States marshals, attorneys, postmasters and other off cials habitually denounce Mir. Cleveland as an agent of Wall street, and his cabinet officers as mere tools of east ern cormorants. It is understood that the president has no fault to find with officeholders who differ in opinion from him. But Mir. Cleveland and his cabinet officers do not believe that it is proper for men holding office under the administration to babitually de- nounce the president and members of the ca abinet.

Latest Corrected Account of the Cyclone
 (Which Swept Over Sioux County, Ia.
 SIOUX CITY, Ia, May 6.-Order is coming out of chaos in the narrow dis trict of Sioux county, which was swept by the tornado on Friday afternoon. Prompt aid has made the survivors of the devastated country as comfortable as possible; nearly all the dead are now buried and none of the in- jured now living are thought to be fatally hurt. A press rep resentative, who went all over the ground swept by the storm, says SlO,- 900 will cover the property damage, including houses, barns, outbuildings and fences. In few places are the crops seriously damaged, for grain was notup far enough to be killed or lodged by the wind, and the principal injury in the fields was by the plaster ing of mud they received.
 This mud shower" was prominent part of the phenomenal storm, but it seems that the power of the wind simply scooped up the black, wet earth from the surface in several places and distributed it over other fields. The correct list of dead numbers ten, as has already been stated. None have died since Saturday. About twenty persons were injured in Sioux county.

 BRADFORD, Pa., May 6.-The most destructive forest fires known in this section for years have ragged for the past week. About o'clock yesterday morning a fire started between Glen Haze and Kentner's. Dolliver's saw mill, located between these points, was soon destroyed, together with 10,- 900, 900 feet of lumber, an engine house, railroad switches, sixteen cars of lum- Der and coal, eight dwellings, an oil well and several thousand acres of timber land. A special train consist ing of steamer and large force of firemen was sent from here to the scene of the coniagration. The firemen were unable to do any thing, but they diverted the course of the flames. Everything in the woods is very dry and the leaves and underbrush furnish abundant fuel for the blaze. The flames are going up the hillside at a rapid rate and destroying everything in their path. The sky is black with a stifling smoke and the flames shoot up ao "' NhS pop oi uliC
 The woods along the Erie railroad between Kentner and Bradford are on fire and it is feared the loss to oil and lumber property will be great.

WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW.
May Trade Begins In Better Condition
 Than for Two Years Past.

Than for Two Years Past.
 NEW YORK, May AR. G. Dun & Co. $ Review of Trade says: Business begins May in better condition than at any other time since the breakdown in May, 1893. Smaller in volume than then, it is not shrinking, but enlarg- ing. The chief obstacle to a complete recovery is the anxiety of many to pluck fruit before it is ripe. Holders of some staples have lifted them so far as to prevent their mar keting; consumption of materials in some branches is checked by advances which cannot be realized for finished products; workers in some industries are demanding wages that cannot be paid out of any business in sight. In spite of labor troubles the outlook brightens; money markets continue healthy and with heavy sales of rail- way bonds abroad the deficiency in public revenue, Ss,742, $40 in April, causes no apprehension.
 Demands for full restoration of wages to the level of 1892 have closed many woolen mills and threaten to close others.
 Enormous transactions in cotton have been followed by decline from 2 to 6.s1 cents, though peace in China was represented as insuring a great increased demand.
 The weeks failure are 23l in the United States, against 233 last year, and 34 in Canada, against B last year.
