MT. and Mrs. Booth Tucker to Command
 in America.
 New York, Feb. 24. 24.--Commissioner and Mrs. Booth Tucker have been ap- pointed as successors to Commander and Mrs, Balllngton Booth and may be expected to arrive in this country with all dispatch.
 Commissioner Tucker is on his way from India, having accompanied Gener- al Booth thither, Mrs. Tucker, who is General Booths second daughter, is in London and may get here earlier than her husband. Commissioner Tucker was at one time in command of the army in India. He has lately been for eign secretary for International head quarters in London. He married the generals second daughter about 1SSa and she has been acting foreign secre- tary during his absence in India. The Rev. pr. John L. Scudder, the pastor of the Jersey City Tabernacle, in prelude to his sermon last night, discussed the trouble in the Salvation army and urged Ballington Booth and his wife to start Iiew one.

Views of Chairman Dincley-

Washington, Feb. o4 - Chairman Dlngiey of the ways and means com mittee, in reply to an inquiry as to whether he attached any importance to the published report that the presi- dent may call an extra session of con sress if there be no financial legisla- tion, said: ''I do not. I assume that the president has made no such declar- ation. If tine president wants more rev enue to put an end to deficiencies and to obviate the necessity of paying out redeemed greenbacl1s to meet current expenditures to be presented for a sec ond redemption-on hundred and thir- ty-five millions of deficiency having al- ready necessitated the paying out of one hundred and thirty-five millions of redeemed legal tender notes-he has only to ask his democratic friends in the senate to support the revenue bill which has passed the house instead of solidly voting with the populists against it. What other financial legis- lation the president expects the ma jority of the present senate to agree to cannot conceive, for presume that he would not regard another sixteen to one free coinage vote by the senate so necessary to the restoration of con- fidence and prosperity as to suggest to hirn the desirability of calling the sen ate in extra session
