A W0NANLESS CITY.
1t is in Mongolia and the Gentle Sex
Has no Habitation There.
From the Chicago Tribune.


We know that Venice is a city without
streets. without horses, except four or
five bronze ones; without carriages. with
ont trees. except in one garden, and
without wooden houses. But there is a
city stin more peculiar than Venice. 1t
Is in Mongolia. close to the borders of
Russian Siberia, and is named Maiwatch-
in, and it is the only city in the world
pctpled by nRsn only ! Tbe Chinese
women are not only forbidden to leave
this territory, but even to pass the great
wall of Kalkan and enter into Mongolia
All the Chinese of this border city are
exclusively traders and they accumulate
money till their trading with Europe
through Siberia has created sufficient
fortune to enable them to return TO their
native cities and live there in ease with
their families.
The dwellings indicate their prosper
ity. They are separated from the street
by clay wall, rather ugly, 1t is true,
but surrounding generally a very ele-
giant looking house. before which are
gamboling those asleek-looking, plump
cues, with unusually big eyes, such as
are pretty faithfully represented on Chi
nese vases and screens The main part
of the houses of Maiwatchin is divided
into two compartments, and that which
is behind is raised. Fires are kept up I'M
der the great platform, which is COW
cred with mats that serve as seats by
day and beds by night. Opposite the door
a niche is generally seen where the do
nestle idols, unaccus toned to attitude
nize to profane eyes, repoSe behind an or
namental blind. The walls Of the recep-
ton room are lacquered in red or black,
and sometimes covered with figured silk.
according to the wealth and taste af the
owner. The apartment overlooking the
court is generally of light wood, perfor-
ated and carved, and over these open
ings colored paper is stretched, prOduc-
ing something of the graceful effect of
stained glass. The idol temples are gor-
geous buildings.

SESSION OF TIE SENATE.
Senator Teller RidicuIes the Admins
tration's Financial Policy

tratiou's Financial Policy
Washington. Jan. 12.-3Ir. Wilson. rep.
Of Iowa, was present in the Senate cham
Der to-day for the first time this session.
He had been absent during the closing
months Of the lest session on account OF
Illness The only senators who have not
yet reported themselves at the present
session are 3Ir- Jones. pop. Of Nevada.
and Mr. Irby, dem, Of South Carolina.
The fortihcations bill was reported back
with amendments from the committee on
appropriations, and was placed on the
calendar.
The urgent deficiency bill was taken up
and Mr.. Teller addressed the Senate. He
held the close attention for over three
hours OF q large audience on the floor
and galleries as he delivered. with great
earnestnes5 and eloquence. his views on
the financial condition of the govern
ment He held up TO ridlcule and contempt
what he called the frantic appeals" Of
the executive department and said that
those appeals showed that that branch
Of the government was in the wrong
hands. He spoke Of the Carlisle bill offered
In the House as "A bin, which,
for crudities and absurdities, had
had sfew equals in this or in
any other congress. and said that if
ia any otArI congress ana SAID InaL II
il had been introduced by a member OF
the populist party it would have been
regarded as the hight of lunacy.
His own remedy for the existing condi-
ton OF things was to enlarge the metallic
basis of the country by the restoration OF
silver money. The low prices in the United
states and in the world were the re-
suit, he said of the decentralization OF sill
Yer. He declared himself ready to join in
any compromise that was not base sur
render and abandonment of silver money,
ana by which silver could be replaced in
the monetary system Of the United States,
and through its agency in that of the
world.
He was followed by Mr.. Lodge, rep. Of
massachusetts, who announced his hos
tilty TO an income tax, not only because
II was bad in itself, but because it was
a great step toward the ruin of the pro-
tective system; and by Mr. Stewart, pop,
OF Nevada, who saw in the full restora-
ton Of silver as money the only possible
remedy for the existing financial trou-
bles. Mr.. Stewart had not finished his
speech when, at 4:f5 o'clock the Senate
adjourned till Monday
