1894 was S1Sl, 600, 600. The bonded debt un-
der the present administration had m
creased sl62, 900. 900. That had been the re-
suit of the new customs system which the
president extolled. What of the customs
law which preceded it, and which Mr..
Cleveland said in his message was INSULT
cient for the purpose of revenue, end
which," he said, 'mpeded our entrance
into the markets OF the world?'' Grow said
that the Mcinley law. as well as every
protection measure passed since 1850, had
produced more than enough revenue TO
meet the normal expenses of the govern
ment. From 1868, when the Morrison bill
was passed, to 1850 the protective customs
system had produced sufficient revenue to
meet the regular expenses or the govern
ment save during the war From 1850 to
1898 the revenues exceeded the expenditures
by S1,310 900. The last Democratic ad-
minstration before the war borrowed
money TO pay expenses. The present al
minstra ton, Grow said. seems to have be-
gun where Buchanan's left off. (Aprlause
and laughter on the Republican s.de). As
to the presidents charge that the Nc
Kinley customs law impeded our entrance
to the markets of the world. Grow declared.
amid Republican applause, that no market
was better than the American market. 1t

consume more than any people the sun
shines on" For no similar period had the
balance of trade been SO much in our ia
vor as during the three years the Mckinney
law was in operation
An emphatic statement by Grow that the
greenbacks would not be retired was re-
ceived with a demonstration Of applause
by the Republicans. The president COM
planned that the greenbacks furnished an
endless chain by which the gold reserve
NOT
greenbacks would endanger the reserve
as long as the revenues were not equal to
the expenses, and no longer. Paying the
current debts of the government out of the
reserve was the road to national bank
ruptcy.
Grow referred to the elections last fall
as a condemnation of the new tarin law
and the policy of the administration, and
warned the president, when he had leisure
TO attend to public affairs" not to disre-
gard the new command Of the people. The
house then, at 3:45 y. M, adjourned until
Monday, it being evident that Secretary
Carlisle's report would not be ready this

noon.
Hezekiah Sanford Bundy was born at
Marietta, o., August Is, 1917. His parents
removed two years afterwards 10 a farm

THE SENATE COMMITTEES.
Chairmanships at Last Fixed-Y ounger
Members Impatient OF Delay.

Washington City, Dec. 12-The members
of the Republican caucus committee OF
the senate have been engaged IN confer
ence with members OF the senate today In
an effort TO assure themselves that the
committee chairmansh.ps which they will
have will prove satisfactory when the list
shall be presented to the caucus. The COM
m.ttee has practically completed this
branch OF its work, and the members feel,
after comforting with their colleagues, that
the allotment they have made will be ac-
ceptable tn the Republicans. They have
had considerable difficulty in finding a
suitable and acceptable craftsmanship for
Senator Shoup, but have now solved the
problem by assigning him 70 the commit
tee on education and Labor, OF which Sena-
tor Kyle. Pop. IS chairman. This arrange
ment viii permit the plans heretofore
made, placing Senator GallinEer at the
head Of the pensions committee. II is
quite definitely settled that Senator Platt
shall head the committee on patents and
Senator Burrows on revision OF the laws.
The caucus will devote the rest OF the
week to consideration Of the makeup OF
the bodies Of the committees, and hopes
TO be able to report the full committees by
Monday. Tire younger element OF the Re-
publican senators are now pressing upon
their colleagues the Importance OF organi-
Zat!ou of the senate before the Christmas
holidays, for the effect the prompt action
will have on the country. They began
their crusade today. and are OF the opinion
that the caucus Is convinced OF the sound
ness OF the argument. Some OF the older
senators are inclined % think this plan
would involve uuseemIy haste. and may
antagonlze the movement

Boston, Dec i2-The Standard will pub
lish tomorrow a brief history OF the diff
Guilty that exists between Mrs. Helen NJ.
Cougar, the temperance advocate of La
fayette, Ind, and Mrs. Marion \. Liver
more the well-known woman suffragist
and temperance lecturer of this state.
Mrs. Livermore has already secured the
services of counsel. and says she viii GER
tainly permit no statement rejecting on
her character to pass unnoticed. The diff
ficulty began this fall in the United States
circuit court, when Mrs. Lvermore was a
witness in the suit brought against Con-
gresham Elijah Morse by Mrs. Cougar.
Mrs. Livermore testified that she knew
Mrs. Cougar well. and that she OCCASION
ally used harsh and abusive language"
Mrs. Livermore also said she had never
been a member OF the Prohibition party
OF this state. 4 letter appeared in the
last issue Of the New York Voice, signed
by Mrs. Cougar. II took Mrs. Livermore
to task sharply. and sought TO show that
Mrs Cougar alleges that Mrs. Livermore
supported the Prohibition nominee, and
quoted from Hon John p. ST. John for
the purpose of showing that she left the
Republican party and Joined the Prohi-
b.t.on.sts. Mrs. Cougar also denied other
statements which Mrs. Livermore made
al the trial. Mrs. Livermore when seen
tonight was very indignant, and pro-
nounced the letter in the Voice tissue OF
Misrepresentation. Mrs. Liyermore has
handed the entire matter over 70 her
counsel

TO CENSURE BAYARD.
The Offending Minister in No
Danger of Impeachment,
BUT he WILL BE PUNISHED.
In Case Cleveland Says He Has Given
No Reprimand, the House May
Administer Ii.
BUT HE WILL BE PUNISHED.

Washington City. Dec. I2.-AccordIng to
the opinion OF two or three probable mem
beTs OF the house committee on foreign
affairs. there is a strong possibility that
when the committee comes TO consider
the matter or Ambassador Bayards two
proposed by Mr.. McCalrs resolution. That
resolution proposes that the house call
upon the president 10 inform it what steps,
IL any. he has taken 10 recall or censure
Mr. Bayari. The question OF impeachment
is not before the house or the committee
in any way, Notwithstanding some mis-
apprehension on that point for when Mr..
Barretts resolution was disposed or the
words by impeachment or otherwise"
were stricken out. leaving simple direc-
ton to the committee 10 report to the
house what action should be taken in the
premises. II is now conceded by the Re-
publicans that the proposition 10 impeach
was not intended seriously. but was mere
ly a parliamentary move to secure debate
on the amba ssador's conduct.
Mr.. Mccall says that it would be unfair
for the house to assume that President
Cleveland has not suggested TO the am
bassador that his speeches were improper,
and unfair to Mr. Bayard for the house
to censure him If the president has done
SO already. This view is taken by the
prominent committeeman. In case the
president should reply that he has not COM
mun.cated with the amba ssador, there is
some sentiment that the house should CEN
sure him, and il is suggested that this
might be done either by a separate resolu-
ton or in connection with the application
for the ambassadors salary when the dip.o-
matte appropriation bill comes before the
house. In case nothing is done before.
Mr.. Mccall thinks that a move to incor-
porats a censuring clause in the appropri-
alton hill will be made when that bill comes
before the house. While there are no con-
spicuous precedents for the congressional
censure or a diplomatic representative, il
is said to be IN order FOR the house 70
censure such an official or ask the president
q recall him
