CHICAGO. ILL. Nov. 25.-In the bar
bers' war over the enforcement OF the
sunGay-closing law. the anti-closing fac
ton scored heavily to-day when Judge
Windes issued a temporary Injunction
order prohibiting two justices OF the
peace from issuing any more warrants
for the arrest OF BARRIERS who worked sun
day or frcm taking any further action In
the cases now pending In their courts.
The writ OF prohibition is an ancient and
Obsolete part OF the common law, which,
as far as known. has never been used ia
Illinois and seldom resortei to in other
States.
The Judge will hear arguments on the
writ next Friday. and incidentally pass
upon the constitutionality OF the law.

ENGLAND SHARPLY SCORED

 LECTION IN TENEZUELI.

Monroe Doctrine Violuted-Its Principle as
 Important us the Balance of Power in Europe,
 Washington, Dee. GO,--When the sen- ate met this morning the bond bill pass ed by the house of representatives on Saturday was lying on the desk of the vice president ready to be referred to the finance committee, The adminis- taton has already repudtated the bnl, so that even if the senate was disposed to pass it nothing would be accomplish ed in the way of relieving the treasury or preventing an issue of bonds. Car lisle is continuing his missionary work in the senate, but he can accomplish nothing beyond inducing the admnis- tration forces to stand together.
 The new finance committee will meet l tomorrow. Senator Wolcott of Cobra do is still in Europe, so that the free silver majority on the committee will amount to only one. There have been l several informal conferences, but 1t has not been decided whether to take up the bond 5oill or the revenue bill first The air was full of rumors during the | morning to the effect that a bond issue would be advertised during the day, but it was reported at noon that it might be delayed for several days. The president is watching the gold reserve, It is predicted that when a financial crash is imminent he will advertise a
 bond issue and not before.
 Just prior to the meeting of the sen ate Chairman Dingley of the house ways and means committee had a long and earnest chat with Senator Allison, the working member of the finance con- mittee, in the absence of Senator Aid | rich,

Annapolis, Dec, SO-It is stated that Secretary Herbert of the navy will for ward to congress this week or early in January a report submitted by Commo- dore Matthews, president of the board designated to investigate and determ- inc upon a plan for complete rehabill- tation of the naval academy.
 This board was authorized last con- gress, and during the summer months was at work, in accordance with the secretarys instructions. MT. Herbert, in transmitting the report, will make some suggestions pertinent to the acad- emys condition, which, he will show, has reached a stage where, for the rep utation of the service, change is im- mediately necessary, . .......
 The report will state that the acad- emy has outgrown itself, and that the arrangements and construction of the present Buildings are on a patchwork order, regardless of the convenience or efficiency of work, unhealthy and obso- lete The plans are accompanied by drawings of a leading architect, which provide magnificent buildings quarters for officers, new drives and walks, mon uments and adernments, which would make the academy a decidedly attrac- tive place.
 The plan is extensive, and the project, if carried out, will cost the government at least $6,OOO, 900. MT. Herbert will urge that the entire project be approv- ed by congress, and that this session appropriate at least $1OO,OO0 with which to begin the work.
 He believes that, with moderate sum provided each year, the academy can be transformed into modern in- stitution within few years.
