the committee in behalf of Judge
Kicks, and it is said that Repre-
sentative Bailey, of Texas, who
has been pushing the impeach-
ment and who is now very much
Disguised, may make some sens
ational disclosures on the floor
of the House concerning the
matter.
Many have been the attempts
to formulate compromise finan-
cial bill that can command a ma
jority of both House and Senate,
but up to this time the W uld-be
pretended compromisers, as
some think them to be, have not
succeeded in producing a bill
that could be passed by either
House or Senate. There is a
suspicion, as yet not very clear
ly defined, that some people are
not so anxious for financial legis-
lation as they appear to be, I'M
less they can get it just eyac;ly
as they want it. In other words,
they are perfectly willing to
adopt a CON promise measure if
the other fellows will 6 i've up
all their demands ;n1 not ask
them to give up anything. Ev-
erybody knows that sort of a
compromiser. Senator Sher-
man calls his bill for the issue OF
3 per cent. gold bonds, upon
which national banks may issue
circulation up TO The par value, a
compromise measure, ut l. is
not so regarded even by memb-
ers of his own rarity. Represe1-
tatiye Walker, OF Mass, who
also has compromise bill, says
the Sherman bill can never pass,
and calls attention to the fact
that for twenty years periodical
attempts to pass bill in the
House, allOwin national banks
to issue currency up to the pan
value Of bonds deposited by
them, have been made and that
they have all failed. Mr.. Walk
er's bill is the shortest yet In
troduceL 1t simply gives the
Secretary of the Treasury auth
GRITTY to issue 3 per ceat. shor
time coin bonds to relieve the
Treasury. The silver men viii
support no bill that does no
provide for unlimited coinage
and without their support no bill
can pass. Hurrah for the silv
er men /. N.

For the heart grows strangely sensitive
When age has dimmed the eyes.
II might be well TO let them believe
You never forgot them quite
That you deemed It a pleasure when far away
Long letters home TO write.
Don't think that the young and giddy friends
Who make your pastime gay.
Have half the anxious thoughts for you
That the old folks have today.
The duty Of writing do not put OF.
Let sleep or pleasure walt.
Lest the letter for which they looked and
longed.
Be day or an hour too late.
For the sad old folks at home.
With locks fast turning white,
Are longing to hear from the absent one
Write them a letter tonight.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
lFrom our Regular Correspondent

Once more little Hawaii is al
most monopolizing the attention
of congress. 1t was fortunate
both for congress and for the
administration that Saturday, the
day upon which the news of the
Hawaiian revolt was published,
lad been previously set apart for
both House and Senate to hear
eulogies on deceased members
in the former on the late Repre-
sentative Isle, of KY, and in
the latter on the la.e Senator
Vance. That shortened the time
WI ould b. 81 ;ea to a dis
cussion of the Hawaiian resolu
lions offered in 10th House and
Senate, and doubtless prevented
things being said for which both
congress and the a2milist alto l

which was at SanFrisco, to pro-
coed to Honolulu with the great
est speed, ami the intervening

together with certli1 y his. 1ers
concerning the ipiratio Is of
Japan, famed By yie.cri S in
China, to acquire possession of
Hawaii, will result in a speedy
a / radio ! change in the policy
of the administration towards
Hawaii, if congress, by some
hasty inju licious acsi1l 90 S not
make it impossible for the adj
ministration to make that change
without having to sacrifice that
dignity to Y hich President Cleve-
land has upon more than one oc-
casion shown himself to be SO
strongly devoted. But, if the
spirit which chara eteriz ID t. e
discussions in the house and sen
ate Saturday is maintained in dis
cussion of the matter this
week, there is little probability
of change, Unless it he directly
ordered by con yress. There isn't
the slightest doubt that major
ity of congress favors The q it

either by annexation or ty {

ton. An effort was maze TO nave iron
and steel and their products given an
advance, but it met with opposition
from The western men and was aban-
dored, its abandonment also having
something TO do with dropping the live
stock and cereal advances contem-
plated. The iron and steel interests
argued that they should be equally
favored with the farmers.
Mem ers of the committee state en-
phatieally that these bills are not in
! tended in any way to represent rcpub-
lican policies on the tariff or finance;
they are merely temporary eXpedients
to meet an emergency, the republicans
holding the emergency is caused by an
insutilcency of revenues. Chairman
Dingley had conference yesterday
with Secretary Carlisle over the bills.
Both bills will be adopted by the
ways and means committee at a meet
ing which the democratic memb ers will
attend. They will be reported to the
house Thursday with rule giving
that day for debate on the tariff bill
with vote at the close and Friday for
debate on the bond bill, bringing that
to a vote Friday night.
A plan has been drafted by eX-Speall-
err Crisp and Mr. Bailey, of Texas,
which will be offered as substitute
for the republican measures. 1t is
based on the old bill for coinage Of
silver seigniorageI which was passed by
the last congresS and vetoed by the
president but to this bill modified will
be added feature for the redemption of
greenbncks. The principal feature in the
seigniorage bill will be the omission
of that part which rendered available
the seigniorage befoTe it had been
coined by the use of silver certificates
based upon H. The trainers of the bill
hold that this feature is not necessary,
because there is no immediate de-
ficiency with the present amount of
silver in the treasury. The other fea-
ture of the plan will provide for the
redemption of the greenbacks in silver
treasury falls below 100000 900. This
may be offered as an amendment to the
seigniorage bill, as more votes can be
mustered for the former than for the
latter proposition. The democrats who
favor the plan intended, of course,
merely to place themselves on record
as consistent in their financial policy.

TOPEKA, Kan, Dec. Alarmed with
a requisition from Gov. Morrill,, the
sheriff of Sherman county, Kan, has
gone to Round Pond, Ok, to be on
hand Friday morning, when r. S. Ell.
wood, the bank swindler, will be re-
leased from custody. Elwood will be
at once arrested and returned to Kan
sas. The crime for which he will be
tried here is swindling the Goodland,
Sherman county, bank out of $500 by
means of New York draft purporting
to be issued by an Oklahoma bank,
which had no existence. Elwood is
well known all over Kansas. When he
went to Goodland he got A. b. Mont
gomery, the rainmaker, to identify
him, and the cashier of the
bank then counted him out
the money. From Goodland Ell
wood went to Ness county and
cur.d 5000 from a bank there on the
same kind of / fraudulent draft. From
Ness he went to Cripple Creek and
later transferred his ope"atlons TO Ok-
lahoma, where he was CAPTURE
