WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.-There bids
fair to be an interesting contest in this
congress between Secretary OF Agricul'
turs Morton and the mem bers who have
agricultural constitute ncies. over the dis
tribution Of seeds. By virtue of an opin-
ion rendered last summer by Attorney
General Olney the secretary has practic-
ally done away with the time honored
system of gratuities to the public. He
rejected all bids made for furnishing
seeds and in October last practically
abolished the seed division of the depart
ment. Since his course was made public
mem bers have been planning to take
action to compel the secretary to carry
out the law according to their interpre-
tation of it, which was made plain in
the course of debate on the question in
the late house. In anticipation OF the
congressional request for an explanation
which was initiated by Mr.. Baker OF New
Hampshire, today the secretary of agri-
culture had printed circular explaining
his course, which is being distributed to
members. The circular quotes the at
torney generals opinion that the Law con-
templates the use of seeds rare and not
common to this country, and the secre.
tary's order closing the seed division.
Secretary Mortol has been very plain In
mis- safe ments to members. He says he
believes that the seed distribution is an
unconstitutional form Of paterna lism and
does not intend to be instrumental In 1T
if he can help himself.

BERLIN, dec. 7.-(Copyrig hted, 1895
by the Associated Press.) - President
CloveIand's structures on Germany's
treatment of food exports and insure nee
companies in his message to congress
have created a sensation here. The GOV
eminent thus iai, through its organs, has
not replied to CleveIands' yelled threats.
and tho only sem i-official statement has
been that OF the Cologne Gazette on
Wednesday last, in which the reference
was made to the disadvantages under
which German sugar imports to America
suffered, and contending that tho inspec-
ton OF American pork was merely OF
local nature which did not warrant the
diffsrential treatment OF German imports
to America. 1t is added that American
insurance companies were only subjected
to the same regulations as all such insti-
tutiops In Prussia. and concluded with
the remark that such questions should
not be decided in moment Of anger, but
settled in a manner agreeable to both
countries aftor careful consideration OF
all that may 90 said for and against 1T.
1t was also stated that there was no doubt
that this was also Mr.. Cleveand's desire.
The Berliner Taee5latt reminds the gov
eminent it had been warned not to take
too severe measures agains! American I'M

The Radical Freisinnige Zeitung says:
"Our industrial interests are threat
sned all the more because the Agrarian
party will not fail to drive Germany into
a tariff war with America for the pur-
nose OF excluding entirely American cere-
ais"
The action of several states, such as
Missouri, regarding German insurance
mpanies, is keenly watched, ana the

Chrisp of Tasmania, the dark horse road
rider. This Is the race that Zimmerman
intended to ride in, but at tho last mo-
ment he was scratched. 1t is given as
the reason that his demands were exor-
bitant, and the com mitttee refused to con-
cede to them. His entry had been sent
in and accepted for this event. but he
wanted bonus beside, which was re-
fused. This move, it is said, has MADE

WASHINGTON Dec. -7.-Speaker Reed
did not appear at the capitol today and
it was stated that he bad remained at his
hotel to deliberate upon the committee
assignments of mem bars. He is main
tanning unusual secrecy IN regard to the
important chairmanships but 1t IS aleady
taken for granted that Nj. Hit of Hi
nois will be chairman of foreign affairs;
Mr.. Walker of Massachusetts,. of banking
and currency; Mr.. Hepburn of Iowa, in
terstate commerce Mr.. Grout of Yer
mont, district OF Colum bia; Mr.. Daniels
of New York. elections; Mr.. Curtis of
New York, military affairs; Mr.. Boutelle
OF Maine, naval affairs, and Mr.. Quigg of
New York, postofices and post roads.
The main interest, OF course, centers on
the craftsmanship OF the ways and means
committee, which carries with 1t the
leadership Of the majority on the floor.
For several days the i'm preston has been
growing that this distinction would not
go to Mr.. Payne of New York. but to
Mr.. Dinlgey of Maine, who would have
been the ranking member had he not
voluntarily retired from the committee
60 permit ex-Speaker Crisp to appoint
Reed.
With regard to the chairmanship of APP
preparations. the impression continues
to pervail that it will go to Mr.. Hender-
Aon of Iowa, the ranking mem Der, Mr..
Cannon of Illinois. the other aspirant for
this important position, having lost his
place by his defeat in the ffty-second
congress. There is considerable specula-
ton on the Democratic side as to whether
Speaker Reed will appoint Mr.. Crisp on
the ways and means COMMITTEES. and In
that way return the compliment accorded
by Mr. Crisp wnen he was speaker, to
Mr.. Reed, after the latter's retirement
from the chair. When Mr.. Reed was ap
pointed, however Mr.. Dingley, on the
ways and mans committee, expressed to
Mr.. Crisp a desire to retire in favor of
his colleague.
similar complication arises in the
case of MIR. Crisp. Mr.. Turner, one of
Mr.. Crisp's colleagues, from Georgia, is
a member OF the committee and il Mr..
Crisp is appointed, it will invoke Mr..
Turner's retirement. The com m lttee, it is
believed, Will be announced at the end of
next week.
