TWO NEW FINANCIAL BILLS.
Senator Pugh Introduces One and SEN
ator Sherman the Other.

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE first bus
mess Of Importance in the Senate to-day
was the introduction OF two fnan-
cial bills. one by Mr.. Push. dem.
Of Alabama. and the other by
Mr.. Sherman. rep. Of Ohio. The
title Of the first was ITO meet the deficit
encies in the revenues Of the treasury OF
the United States 10 regulate the redemp-
ton Of treasury and coin notes Of the
United States. TO restore silver 20 coinage;
10 amend the national banking and cur
rency laws; and for other purposes"
- That of the second was TO provide for
a temporary deficiency OF revenue
Nr Pughs bill provides for the issue
at once OF not exceeding SlOO00o.ooo legal
tender notes 10 meet deficiencies and to
he redeemable in gold and silver standard
coins. for the coinage of the silver bull
lion in the treasury to be used in the pay
ment of the public expenditures; for the
issue of certificates for silver to be de-
posted, TO the amount of its market
value. for the reserve of Sl00,0n,0)o IN
equal amounts of gold and silver, and for
the payment OF custom duties One-haf in
gold and the other half in other currency.
Mr.. Sherman's bill authorizes the issue
of 8 per cent bonds for the redemption
of United States treasury notes and to
pay current expenditures; also the issue
of per cent. certificates to he sold at
public repositories and at postofiices, and
allows the issue of national bank cur
rency of the par value of the bonds de-
posted therefor.
Both bills were read in fun and were
referred TO the finance committee.
Mr.. Pugh made an impassioned speech
when he introduced his bill. in which he
alluded to Mr.. Vests facetious charac-
terization Of the senators yesterday as
lot of old Muscovy brakes" and con-
demned it as degrading, notifying and
humiliatng."
The pension appropriation bill tappro-
priating Sl40.000,0OO for pensions) was
passed, with an amendment to abolish
the 81 and 81 disability pensions. and to
make the minimum amount So per month.
The army appropriation bill was then
taken up, but got snagged on custom
of change of army posts-a question on
which Mr.. Mitchell, rep, of oregon, and
Mr. Blackburn dem. of Kentucky, got
heated up to a point which came danger
ously near to personal alteration.
The army appropriation bill went over
without final action. and after a short eX-
ecutive session, the senate at $50 o clock
adjourned till tO-marrow

WORK OF THE HOUSE.
An Important Ruling on the Indian
Appropriation Bill.

Washington. Jan. 1.-THE proceedings
of the House in the morning hour lacked
general interest and We're, besides. inter
rupted to receive a message from the
Senate announcing the passage. with
amendments. of the urgent deficiency APP
preparation bill for the current year.
on motion of Mr.. Breckenridge, the
amendment was disagreed to and n con
ference was ordered, with Messrs. Breck-
inridge, sayers and Cannon as managers
on the part of the House.
The Indian appropriation bill was then
taken up in committee of the whole.
Mr. Cobb Of Missouri moved an amend
ment appropriating $l.660.000 to pay the
first installment, due March /. 1895. of the
money due for the purchase and opening
of the Cherokee Strip, under the act of
1898.
Mr.. Holman made the point of order
that the appropriation belonged in the
sundry civil bill; and he made it for the
express purpose of getting a ruling of the
chair. for the first time in the history of
congress, upon the question of jurisdiction
of these matters.
Chairman oNein said that the
appropriation was different from
the appropriations under the jursdc-
ton OF the committee ol ilNtiS anu iidi
bors to which Mr.. Holman had referred,
in that that committee was authorized
to make appropriations for new work
only The Indian appropriation bill was
a bill appropriating money to carry into
effect treaty stipulations with the Indian
tribes. The amendment was evidently to
carry out a treaty stipulation and was
therefore in order.
The amendment was agreed to.
Mr.. Holman said he hoped the commit
tee on appropriations would bear in mind
the ruling of the chair when making APP
populations for work carried on under
contracts made pursuant to river and
harbor bills.
No other important change was made
in the bill, which had not been disposed OF
when the House, at 4:4O O'Clock, adjourned
till Tomorrow.

A BULL AND LION FIGHT.
Madrid Witnesses a Wonderful Contest
of a Novel Fierceness.
From the Courier des Etats Unis.

From the Courier des Etats Unis.
The lovers of bull fights in Madrid have
recently been treated to novel specta-
cle-a fight between a Senegambian lion
and a bull from on Of the most famous
granaderias of CASTLE.
For several days before the sensational
representation great posters were placed
on all the corners of the streets picturing
the favorite animal of the Spaniards at
the mercy of the king of the desert. But
this was more than the citizens of Madrid
could stand, and in their fury over the
outrage they tore down the posters and
trampled upon them in bully fashion.
Seeming a good business speculation the
ticket buyers, who form solid associ-
alton in Madrid, bought up all the places
in the immense Plaza de Toros, and re-
sold them at an enormous profit.
In the presence Of 5000 persons the
magnificent lion Regarde made his debut
in a vast cage specially constructed to
meet the exigencies of the terrible duel
that was to take place. Then the toril on
wheels containing the bull Caminero was
drawn in The bull was evidently out Of
temper for he roared furiously at the
spectators. But he was soon placed in the
presence of his adversary. At this mo-
ment the entire plaza became silent as a
tOmD-SOmelH rare liuttu III DpdiH.
The spectators, holding their breath,
watched for the first onslaught. As II
measuring their distance. the two animals
eve,l each other and then sprang for
ward. The lion endeavored to fasten his
teeth in the bulls throat, but he received
a terrific butt which sent him rolling
back several PAGES He gathered him
self together, and bounded upon his en-
emv and fastened his claws In his side.
But Caninero managed to shake him off.
and at last tossed him in the air a sec
ond time. Three times more the lion
sprang at the bull, and was tossed each
time.
The advantage now appeared to be on
the side Of Caminero, and the crowd. 81
lent UP to this moment, gave him wild
ovation The lion retired to his corner
and endeavored to climb to the top OF the
cage. but. before ne could succeed. he
was again successfully attacked by his
redoubtable adversary. At last. when
utterly vanquished, with his side torn
open. his shoulder crushed and his teeth
broken. ne was taken from the cage while
the crowd hooted and laughed. The vic
tor was then brought around the arena
in triumph, and he went into the toril
under a perfect shower of fans, hats and
objects OF all sorts. The enthusiasm was
beyond description.
As for poor Regarde he died next day
in his cage. SO now go tell the Spaniards
that the lion, and not the bull, is the king
of beastsi

CRISP GOING TO AsHEv1LLE.
A Nervous Disease Affecting the

Washington, Jan. 17.-Speaker Crisp will

in the hope that the change of climate
may prove beneficial to his health. The
speaker has been under a physicians care
for several weeks for a nervous disease,
which seems to affect his heart. A con-
sultation was held by Drs. Somers and
Busey of this city at the speakers apart
ments last night, at which time he was
carefully examined and the conclusion
reached that he should leave the city for
several weeks at least. Speaker Crisp re-
piled that it would be embarrassing at
this juncture to be absent from his duties
for so long period, but promised to go for
a week, at least, believing that the effect
of even a short stay would be helpful to
him.
