PROBABLY GONE DOWN.
The Missing Lifcboat Not Seen by Any
of the Fishing Crews.

of the Fishing Crews.
IOwESTOFT, England, January 3f.-A
dispatch received here from Yarmouth this
afternoon says that the trawler Flora has
returned to that pert from the fishing
grounds. and when asked whether they
had seen anything of the missing life-boat
of the Elbe. her crew replied that they
knew absolutely nothing of the disaster.
One of the fishermen of the Flora who
was on deck early yesterday morning said
that he saw rockets fired and feared that
something had happened.
Later the Flora was spoken by another
trawler whose skipper said he had seen
two steamers running so close together
that Ipan could have tossed a biscuit
from the deck of one of these vessels TO the
other. The Flora then left for Yarmouth.
The other trawler will not return to port
for six or seven weeks.
When ore of the crew of the Flora was
asked what the crew OF a traWler would
do If they picked up dead bodies at sea, ne
replied that they would probably throw
them overheard again.
The rescued officers of the Elbe started
for London at o:lO p. IN. Before they start
ed the correspondent of the Associated
Press showed them the statement Of Capt.
Gordon of the steamer Crathie.
Third officer Stollberg promptly denied
that no signals of distress were made from
the Elbe He added that red, white and
blue rockets were fired after the collision,
and that they shot up so high in the air
hat II was impossible for the Crathie not
20 see or to misunderstood them.
A dispatch from Ramsgate this after
noon announces that the missing life boat
Of that place has returned, after having
been fifteen hours al sea searching for sur
yivors of the steamship Elbe.
No trace of either the missing life boat
or of wreckage was found. and people
here believe that the rockets seen by tine
Ramsgate life savers Were those thrown
up by the Elbe. The Broad Stairs life boat
also returned to her station this morning
and was nearly wrecked while working
through the surf. She was overturned
and her crew were severely buffeted, sew
pral of them being injured.

NO HOPE FOR 1T.
The House Republicans Will Not
Hasten to Pass the Presidents Bill.

All the energy and activity suddenly
shown in Congress in the interest of legis-
lation before the close of the session seems
to amount to nothing more than a little
nurry-a sort Of a fluttering of the heart
before it stops beating.
If Mr.. Reed has Influence to prevent it
the alleged plan of Mr.. Cleveland to commit
the republicans to the proposition that an
increase of revenue is not needed and that
the currency question alone is the one to
be attended to will not succeed.
While the republicans of the banking
committee have taken a very active part
in amending and reporting the admlnistra-
ton financial bill, and there is a very
strong sentiment among the republicans
in favor of adopting it, the certainty that
nothing they could do would make it a
law and the opposition of such leaders as
Mr.. Reed to any action ON their part Whicn
would seem to give color to the conten-
items of Mr.. Cleveland and MIR. Wilson that
revenue is not wanted, VIII probably keep
them from taking too active part in the
House.
The disposition among the republicans to
act solidly together in support of the propo-
sition is certainly not as strong today as 1t
has been heretofore since the message was
delivered. There are many who hold that
regardless of what Mr.. Cieveland's motive
may be as regards committing them to a
definite proposition they should regard
nothing but the proposition itself, and if
it meets their approval do their best to
secure action Upon it. But failure is al
ready stamped across the face OF the bill
in big red letters.
And so it seems to be across the face of
every other measure of consequence which
is now being pressed for action.
Other Lcgislntion.
There is very general fear on the part
of the advocates of the Pacific railroads
furdirg bill that the vote in the House
at the close of the session today will be
adverse to the measure. The vote by
which the special order was adopted show
ed but a very narrow margin in favor of
consideration and it is believed that quite
a plumber of members who voted for the
order will vote against thu bill. If the
House should pass the measure it is re-
garded as improbable that the Senate will
ever take it up for consideration.
There is apparently no prospect that the
Nicaragua canal bill, which has been
passed by the Senate, can be got through
the House. Members who have been MAX
ing a special note of the sentiment of
the House on this subject say that the
Senate bill would, on a direct vote, be de-
1eated by two-thirdS majority, and that
the most the House could be got to agree
to would be a provision for survey by
government engineers, and an estimate of
the cost of the work
A vote could not be got on the Senate
bill in the House except with the assist
ance of the committee on rules, and that
assistance cannot be secured.
1T seems improbable now that the rail-
road pooling bill which has passed the
House can be put through the Senate.

NEWSPAPER PUBLISHERS OBJECT.
They Protest Against n Clause In the
New Medical Bill.

The publishers of the daily newspapers
of this city have sent a protest to the
House District committee against that
clause of the new medical bill which de-
bars a physician from practicing If he ad-
vertises his ability to cure disease. Tho
bill places advertising in the same category
with criminal offenses. and the newspaper
publishers object thereto.
There seems to be disposition the
part of many members of the committee
to hold to the opinion that Congress has
no authority to debar doctor from prac-
tice because he advertises. 1t is probable
that the objectionable feature will be
stricken out of the bill.
