TO SUE FOR HIS WHISPERS WORTH
They Were of Beautiful Red and
They Decorated a Chicago Police

man.
From the Chicago Times-Herald.
Patrick Furlong, one of the 5S7 police
men discharged by Supt Badenoch Tues
day night, is going to sue Inspector Hunt
for the value of a luxuriant growth of
red whiskers. Furlong was attached to
the Woodlawn station, and on account of
his personal appearance, was known as
the farmer copper" Tuesday morning
Inspector Hunt met Furlong and, in a
Joke, said to him:
pat, you'll have to take off those
whiskers if you want to stay on the po-
lice force You look too much like a
farmer with whiskers down to your
belt"
That afternoon Furlong dropped into
barber shop between pulls" and had the
whiskers shaved off. When he reported
at the station in the evening for roll call
the change in his appearance was so great
he had to prove his identity. Furlong
lives in Bridgeport, and, when he got home
Tuesday night, his most intimate friends
failed to recognize him. OF course, every
body wanted to know why he shaved Oft
q always do as my superior officer tells
me" said Furlong to his friends, land
when the inspector said shave 'em off, 1
When Furlong reported for duty at the
woodlawn station yesterday morning nc
was shown the order which brought sor-
row 10 many policemen. Furlong ran
his finger down through the list until he
came to the Twelfth precinct. The first
name he saw was his own. Surely there
was a mistake Furlong thought, for had
not Inspector Hunt told him the day be-
fore that if he shaved off his whiskers
he would be all right.
FurIong sought the inspector. He asked
If it were true that he had been dismissed.
The inspector said the order as issued was
probably correct,
long. 'Ill make somebody smart You
told me yesterday to shave off my whis-
kers and I'd be all right. did it and I get
il where the chicken got the AK. Some
one has got to pay for those whiskers
/ wore them for years when I was driving
an Archer avenue car, and they were the
pride Of Bridgeport. You told me 10 shave
'em off, and I'm just going to hold you
responsible for the loss. You've had your
laugh and now III have mine"
Furlong says he wal make no claim for
definitely stated damages, but he will let
jury decide the worth Of the whiskers.

THE BOUTWELL's SERVICE,
1t Has Greatly Aided the May Week
Committee.

The battalion of marines and blue jack
cts from the warships were brought up
yesterday by the revenue cutter Bout
well. This is only one of several services
rendered in behalf of May week by the
officers of the Boutwell,, Lieuts. Fengar
and Sill and First Assistant Engineer Nc
Gee.
The large and representative COM
mittee of citizens which well
coined the warships Monday was
enabled to do so in a proper and be-
coming manner with the aid of the Of
ficers of the Boutwell,, who placed their
vessel at the disposal of the committee.
The May week committee feel under
deep obligations to the officers of the
Boutwell, and It is safe to say that the
merchants of the city have a higher APP
probation of the revenue cutter service
to-day than they have ever had before.

STEWARDS BIG SILVER SCARE.
THE WEST WARNED TO LOOK OUT
FOR CHINA AND JAPAN.

The ORIGINALS Represented as Having
an Advantage of at Least 80 Per
Cent. In the Difference OF Exchange
in selling to Countries ON a Gold
Basis-Their Cheap Labor increases
This Alleged Advantage.
Washington. Dee 16.-The evil DAYS
with which the western manufacturing
industry is threatened by competition from
China and Japan were passionately por-
traycd in the Senate to-day by Mr.. Stew
art, pop, of Nevada, in connection with
his resolution instructing the finance COM
mittee to inquire what the effect of the
difference of exchange between gold stand
ard countries and silver standard coun-
tries has on the agricultural and manu-
featuring industries of the United States.
Mr. Stewards contention was that as
the expenses of eastern labor and ma
terials are paid for In silver by those
countries and as the products are sold
in the United States and Europe for
gold or its equivalent, the Orientals have,
in the difference of exchange an advant-
age of 50 per cent, and this advantage
Joined to their mechanical skill, their
low wages and their cheap mode of living.
enables them to undersell all competitors
and will, if not checked. transfer the
manufacture for the world from the west
to the east The only way to prevent such
an evil. Mr.. Stewart argued, is to restore
the parity between gold and silver. No
action was taken on the resolution, which
lies on the table 10 be called upon at
any time for further discussion.
The other proceedings In the Senate to-
day were of a routine character Petit
tions were presented for a restoration of
the wool and woollens schedule of the
Mckinley tariff act, and for l cent let
ter postage.
Bills were introduced to exclude aliens
from public employment and to protect
the public forest reservations: and a reSo-
luton was offered by Mr. Cafferty ana

report as to why the law providing for
the payment of a sugar bounty has not
been executed.

HOUSE ELECTION CONTESTS.
Probability of the Appointment of
Three Committees.


Three Committees.
Washington, Dec 16.--Shall there be one,
two or three committees to decide the
thirty-odd contested election cases now
before the House?
That is the question which Speaker
Reed is trying to settle, and in order TO
reach a conclusion he conculted this at
ternoon with the leading republican and
democratic members. This conference oc-
Cured IN the speakers private room. II
was attended by Messrs. Payne and Dam
iels OF New York, Henderson of Iowa.
sylyania, reps.S and ex-Speaker Crisp OF
Georgia, Mr.. Bailey of Texas and Mr.. Nc
MILAN of Tennessee.
The conference lasted an hour. At the
expiration of that time the dempcrats
Withdrew and the republicans informally
discussed the matter for an hour longer.
The republicans were a unit In favor OF
bers each. Mr.. Mcmillan of Tennessee
favored one large committee, say twenty
seven members.
Mr.. Bailey of Texas was apparently in
fuenced by the republican argument and
he is reported as not looking with dis
favor upon a division of the committee.
Ex-Speaker Crisp Is reported to have
done more listening than talking, but ne
was opposed TO the general proposition.
There is little doubt that the result of to-
days conference will be the formation of
three committees which viii be announc-
ed with the other committees on possibly
Friday of this week, just before the az
journment for the holidays.
1t is understood that Mr.. Powers OF
Vermont was rendered the Craftsmanship
of one of the committees, and that he
declined it.
