passage of a gold bond bill was i'm
possible, as il would be bitterly fought
by the silver men. Some Republicans
were inclined to couple with a bill to

will be remembered, Mr. Reed offered
in the last Congress.
Speaker Reed feels the responsible

situation in the Snate, and the major

the House. and the action of the House
must be independent of the action and

REPUBLICAN CONFERENCE.
Members of the House Discuss Meas
ures of Policy.

Washington, d. c., Dec. 21.-The Re-
publican members of the Ways and
Means committee held a private cop.
sultation for two hours tonight in their
committee room at the capitol at
which Speaker Reed and several other
leading Republicans not members of
the committee were present. The pur-
pose was to discuss general questions
of policy, but not with view to ar
ranging a definite plan at this time.
The members present were extremely
reticent and evasive, stating that the
meeting was only for tn purpose of
exchanging individual views generally.
1t is known that the Presidents
meeting was only for the purpose of
discussed, and the trend of opinion
was that, regardless of the sentiments
of the members as to the wisdom of
the communication, it was necessary to
devise some plan Immediately for the
relief of the treasury as a protection
to the business interests of the coun-
try. There was good deal of talk
about short-term bonds and the ex-
pediency of making certain changes to
increase the revenue. There was some
discussion of the problem of so arrang'
| ing the bond authorization as to re-
quire separate accounting of the pro
portion of the gold proceeds thai
would go to protect the gold reserve
and the proportion that might be use'
to defray deficiencies in receipts.
1t was the understanding that tn
House should remain In session al
next week, adjourning from day to da
until some plan was effected upo
which all the Republicans could unit
or until the financial situation $
changed for the better as to admit {
an adjournment without causing a b.
lief in business circles that the m;
jority was disposed to shirk its dut

Engineers Should be Citizens.

Washington, Dec Ex-senator Squire
of Washington has introduced bill
which will greatly increase the useful
ness as naval reserve vessels of many
steamships carrying the American flag.
The bill provides that hereafter all
the engineers of ocean steamers carry
ing an American register, shall be full
fledged citizens of our country; also
that such engineers shall be officially
declared officers. A careful investiga-
ton of the laws governing the mer-
chant marine shows that it Is possible
under a decision of the Secretary of
the Treasury for all ocean steamers
carrying the American flag to have
their engine-room complement made
up entirely of foreigners, who have
simply declared their intention of be-
coming citizens of our country.
