Cleveland on Carlisle's
Bill.
NO MESSAGE ON CURRENCY.
The President Privately Urges
Legislation.
SOME HOPE FOR THE MEASURE.
Soon a Caucus Will Be Held and
Final Vote Taken i'm the
House.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-Presideut Cleve-
special message to Congress on the cur.
rency question. 1t was learned that Sec
rotary Carlisle had mentioned the matter
to the President and it had been discussed
in general way. There has been no con.
clusion reached. however, and up to the
present time The President had not framed
such message, or, in fact. determined 10
send one.
The President has thrown off his usual
reserve In discussing the pending currency
bill with members of Congress. Chair
man Springer of the Currency Committee
and several other House leaders have
called at the White House of late and have
talked at length with the President on the
currency question.
In these talks Mr.. Cleveland has urged
the great need of passing some form OF
currency legislation. He has pointed out
that the Carlisle bill was not reform OF
any existing evil OF the financial system
any more than the tariff was q complete
realization of the hopes of tariff reform.
Yet in the judgment of the President the
Carlisle bill was step in the right dlrec-
ton, and with that accomplished there
was hope of progressing I'LL the financial
system was perfected at every point.
Mr.. Cleveland expressed his approval OF
the Carlisle bill as whole and in detail.
he did not point out 10 his callers any,
thing he regarded as flaw in 1t. He ex-
pressed the hope that it would receive
favorable and speedy action.
foi, %ba IVY
debate is to proceed in the House and be
brought to q close are practically settled.
No rule has yet been framed by the Com
mittee on Rules, but it is probable such q
ru lie will be introduced on Saturday. 1t
will fix the limits of the fve-minute debate
and a time for the final vote. While no
exact time has been fixed, it is the opinion
of Mr.. Springer and others directing the
course of the bill that next Wednesday, at
noon, Will be the best time.
In the meantime caucus undoubtedly
will be held. Mr.. Springer thinks the
caucus will be held on Saturday or Mon
day night. In that event tie rule will not
be presented until the caucus has shown
the desires of the majority.
One or more substitutes 10 the Springer
bill will be introduced tomorrow, and
their introduction Will be followed by an
attempt, either In caucus or in the House,
to have them adopted as a Democratic
measure.
A prominent Democratic member of the
House, who talked with Secretary Carlisle
yesterday, says the Secretary seopposed
to having his bill, of which Springer is the
director, abandoned. He expressed the
belief that the bill would pass the House,
and the President Is said to have not given
I'D hope either.

LARCENY OF PUBLIC FUNDS.
One Little Diversion in Session of
the Senate.

the SeUdtcs
WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.-The resolution
heretofore introduced by Allen Pop.) of
Nebraska, relating to the occupation Of
rooms in the basement of the Senate wing
OF the Capitol for restaurant purposes,
gave rise to an interesting debate during
the morning hour of the session to-day.
Mr.. Allen severely criticized the practice
of furnishing to the proprietor Of the res
taurant free of charge his furniture. ice,
ETC.. and asserted that 1t was violation of
the statutes and constituted larceny of
the public funds.
Hale R) of Maine aud Henderson of
Nebraska replied to the observations of
Allen and defended the existing practice.
No action was taken on the resolution.
The remainder Of the day was taken up
by Morgan in a speech on the Nicaraguan
canal bill. in which he replied in detail to
the arguments advanced by Mr.. Turpie in
opposition to the bill.
The chair laid before the Sen ate letter
from the Secretary of State transmitting a
dispatch fro m the United States Embas-
sador at Paris saying be had delivered to
the widow of President Carnot engrossed
copies of resolutions OF sympathy OF the
American Congress relative TO the death
of President CernOt.
Quay of Pennsylvania introduced pro-
posed amendment to the urgent deficiency
bill. amending the tariff law by striking
out all provision for the income tax and
substituting new wooden schedule, in
GLIDING duty on raw wool.
The resolution Of Allen relating to the
Senate restaurant was then taken up, and
Allen addressed the Senate at some length.
He thought the restaurant should not be
furnished by the Government. Senators
Hale and Henderson thought the best in
terests of the Senate demanded that there
be no change. The resolution went over

TO UNITE INTERESTS.
Los Angeles and Fresno Seem De-
termined About the New Road. ,

Los ANGELES. Jan. 3.-The Herald's
action In energetically presenting to the
public the adyisability of the early con-
siruction of the valley road from Fresno
to this city is bearing fruit.
To-day the directors of the Chamber of
Commerce decided to call a special meet
ing of that body to consider the matter of
a competing line of railroad into the San
Joaquin Valley. As the membership of
that body consists of more than 800 repre-
sentative business men. its action on the
question will be of the highest importance.
The meeting will be held at some date
between the 10Th and the Goth inst not yet
determined. About the same time that
this meeting is held at the Chamber of
Commerce a general mass-meeting OF
representative citizens of the San Joaquin
Valley will be held at Fresno to consider
the same subject.
The result Of this com bined effort will
in all probability be the adoption of plar
to unite the two sections.

BENT ON A CAUCUS.
Democrats Desire to Avoid an Open
Show of Division.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 3.-The Democratic
leaders have decided that they want a
caucus. This morning they were consid-
ering whether it should be held tonight,
as many were anxious it should. The
opposition of CulDersOn of Texas, sup
ported by the entire Texas delegation, to
both the Carlisle bill and the substitute, has
dismayed the friends of the administra-
ton and now both friends and opponents
of the measure are anxious for caucus.
1t was fully intended early in the day to
have a caucus tonight. Cuberson had
announced an intention to make speech
to-day in opposition to the Carlisle plan,
and friends of. the measure want him to
make speech in the privacy of the caucus
rather than in the House. They want to
settle the matter there before the extent of
the division of the party in the House is
fully disclosed. Tie deputy sergeant-at-
arms, however, called Spriuger's attentio
to the fact that about forty Democrats, on
leaving for the holidays, announced that
they would probably not return before the
7th of the month. In view of such a list
Of absentees Springer wants the caucus
postponed until Monday evening. The
the Carlisle bill appears to be growing
rapidly in the House. and II is believed
that it will have strong support In the
House caucus.
The friends of the Carlisle plan are
more than ever apprehensive of failure.
The decided antagonism of Eastern finan-
ciers and equally positive antagonism of
radical silver men and lukewarm advocacy
of the committee bill by Southern men and
special friends of the administration rem
der the outlook for the bill very far from
promising. Those Democrats who are
striving for perpetuatlon of the present
national bank system by the issue Of low
interest bonds and the retirement of legal
tender Government notes are very hope
full of success, II not in caucus, by the
assistance of Republicans. The intention
is that the caucus shall not be directly on
the question of supporting the Bank
ing and Currency Committee bill,
but on the general question of
financial policy. If the Democrats who
favor large bond issue for the basis of a
national bank currency show any consid-
cradle strength thew will probably get
assistance from the Republican side.

CHICAGO, Jan. 3.-There Vas a fight to
the death last night, witnessed by as big a
crowd as c,uld get within seeing distance
of the show-window of a Madison street

an hour and resulted in the death CT one

happy family. consisting of pair OF black
bear cubs. gray wolf and four monkeys.
The wolf made a snap at the female
African monkey. which was resented py
her male companion. who slid down the
bars Of the cage until he REACHED the moor,
and the fight was on. 1t looked an uh-
equal contest, for the wolf was several
times as large as the monkey but the lat

although he had the worst OF it he managed
to keep the wolf busy for half an nour.

forts made to stop the battle.
HThis particular breed of monkeys is
noted for courage and being always ready
to fight. There was something nearly
human in the anguish of the dying mon
