WASHINGTON, Nov. 3o.-The Repuoli-
cans OF the touse of representatives met
in caucus tonight and unanimously nomi-
mated ex-Speaker Thomas B. Reed Of
Maine for speaker of the Fifty-fourth
congress. This action was anticipated.
as at no time had an effort been inaugur-
ated to contest his election. Hon. Galu-
sLa Grow, who was speaker of the house
in 1859, ma led Mr., Reed in caucus.
He simply presented MF. Reeds name
and the nomination was made by ris-
ing vote amid cheers. Mr.. Grow, Mr..
Canntn and Mr. Payne escorted Mr.. Reed
to the hall, and when the cheering which
greeted his appearance had subside6, he
made brief spesch of acceptance.
"Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen" said
Mr. Reed, for the honor you have con-
erred upon nee l tender you my sincere
thAnKs. l am, however, not in the least
liable to confound with my own PERSONAL
ity this tribute of your kindness. l had

is to that patrio,ic sense of our party
that you tender the tributs of your ma
tured as we'll as your temporary approval.
| History will accord as praise for what
we did in the Fifty first congress, and il
may accord us its praise in this for what
| We do not do.
1--WE have, unfortunately, a divided
government, which usually leads to small
results. But there are times when rest Is
as health-giving as exercise. We must
not forget that our first and greatest
duty is tu do all we can to restore con fl
| dence to business ana that we must avoid
all business legislation except In the di-
| recton of improved business. Rather
than un risks we can afford to wait until
we'll matured plans give US assurances OF
permanent benefit. Crude and hasty legis-
| latiOn is above all things to be Stunned.
Gould We cause our immense popular
majority to overflow into the other
branches of the government and could we
have full control, wo would create, not a
perfect world, perhaps. but world rather
more lit to live IN than We have lately
had. (Applause.)
Even as things are. / do not for u
moment doubt that our patriotic instincts
will lead US to make every sacrifice ex-
cept Of principle to rescue our country

QUARRELING ABOUT A CUP

NEW YORK, Nov. 80. Mrs. Alva Van
deroilt the wife of William X. Vanderbilt
and the motaer of the Duchess of Marl-
borough has been made defendant in
suit brought against her IN the city court
by the Baroness Blanche de Berzenvi OF
Hungary, to recover $5U0, the value of a
Tanta!us cup.

that on end prior to Octobre, /, 1895, she

Tantaulus cup valued Mt $500. The

These included Sassuun and Kharput
and all hav, been the scenes of big mas
sacres. Then the porte announced that
it desired to have the funus sent to 1t
and that it would attend to the distribu-
tion. This. probably. it planned to do
through the regular mixed commission
of Christians and Mussulmans, and, in
DR.. Talmage's opinion, formed a diplo-
matte refusal of the porte to furnish an
escort.
Then Doctor Talmage ANNOUNCED
that in the absence of Off cal pro-
lection Git would be too hazardous a
work for him to undertake.
at is utter foolhardiness, said he,
"for any one to go into that country, es
pecIally with large amount of money,
without sono escort or pledge of protsc-
tion. One man with a gun on his shoul-
der would have been sufficient to guaran-
tee protection, as the Turks have a re-
spsct amounting to a supersitiuus wor-
ship for their government and the influ-
encs of such an escort would have been
sufficient.
Nv. W. Howard, who has gone there
now, was acquainted with the region.
He was reported killed, but the cable to-
day shows he Is still alive and has heen
making rapid progress since he ieache I'd
