reflect on the government. Abrahamian,
however, SUCCEEDED in adding 10 a letter

truthful "details. All the villages around
Garmury have been destroyed, and men,
women and children massacred. Their

BOULDER, Col, Jan. 9.-Great excitement
prevails here over the new gold fields Sit

Magnolia, and there are rumors OF riches
being uncovered by prospectors in holes not
over five feet deep. One strike is alleged
to be worth 100000 and an offer of this
amount is said to have been made and re-
fused. Frank ID. Baker came down from
Walkers ranch and reports that several
sacks OF Quartz had been sent TO the sam

HOUSE RULES.
Almost the Same ms Those Used by the
Eifty-Flrst Congrcaa.

WASHINGTON, Jan. AT the beginning
of this Congress the House adopted for it's
parliamentary code the rules of the last
Republican Congress, the Fifty-first. with
such changes as it might adopt on the rec
ommendation OF the committee on rules.
The changes were reported 70 the House by
the committee to-day, and with but one
exception are unmportant. The exception
Is the mode of establishing the presence of
a quorum, which. after the precedent laid
down by Speaker Reed, in the F'ifty-first
Congress, became a most important point
OF parliamentary practice. In the last Con-
gress Speaker Crisp achieved the same re-
suit watch Mr.. Reed obtained by
a rule under which two members
were designated TO note those pres
ent ani not voting on a roll call.
The committee on rules now proposes a rule
ginia. In the Forty-sixth Congress. Another
new rule provides that the Speaker shall en-
terrain only one motion TO adjourn and no
other dilatory motion after report has
been made by the committee on rules until
the report has been disposed OF. The rule
dered by only a majority of the members
present If a quorum" Is changed 10 ma
jority OF members voting, IL quoroum is

The Tucker rule. referred to above, is as
follows: Whenever a quorum falls TO vote
on any question and a quorum Is not pres
eat and objection is made for that cause,
there shall be a call OF the House and the
sergeant-at-arms shall forthwith proceed to
bring in absent members and the yeas and
nays on the pending question shall at the
same time be considered as ordered. The

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-All the members
of the Indiana delegation who are in the
city. with the exception of Messrs. Johnson
and Henry, attended the diplomatic recep-
ton at the White House tonight. They
were accompanied by the ladies of their
families and enjoyed the novelty of the
crush of brilliant uniforms OF the foreign
soldiers and diplomates and the magnificent
gowns Of the ladies. The delegation showed
up we'll and the gowns of the ladies'. while
not as decollete as some Others were hand
someIy made and tastefully worn.
The members of the judiciary, the army
and navy, the members of Congress and a
large number Of other public officials at

OF the electric lights, the elegant attire of
the diplomatic corps and the shining uni

the scene brilliant one. The red, blue and
with its wealth OF flora, were open TO the
guests, who strolled through them at will.
The Marine Band occupied its usual position
in the veStibule in front OF the main CORR

GEN. ALGER SPEAKS
HIS VIEWS ON GOV. MORTON'S CAN.

He Does Not Think the Bond Issue

Methods Criticised.

NEW YORK, Jan. 9.-Gen. Russell A. AL
ger is at the Fifth-avenue Hotel To a re-
porter he said: Governor Morton has
measured up TO a very high standard in
every public capacity. / do not think, how
ever, that he can hope for any delegates
from Michigan His candidacy was hardly
regarded as actual at time when Reed
and Mckinley were making considerable
Roadway in that State Now that he is an
avowed candidate the lines have been pref
ty well drawn between the man from Maine
and the great protectionist. L would not
undertake to estimate Governor Morton
prospects of delegates from other States
than New York"
What do you think OF the new bond
issue?" was asked.
1T does not seem to be q success" Gen.
Alger replied. $50 far as have read there
seems to be no popular response. The
scheme as presented to the public was i'll

for popular subscriptions at an upset price,

ance that all properly guaranteed subscrip-
tons would be accepted, l think the loan

commissions to the financiers.''
do you expect war out of the Venezuela
trouble?" the reporter asked
Not at ALL said General Alger. There
would not have been the remotest chance
OF war if the President had gone about the
assertion of the Monroe doctrine in more
temperate fashion. He might have col
lated full details of the boundary dispute
so far as they were procurable and adj
vised Congress that on such statements of
fact ii appeared that the principle of the
Monroe doctrine had been violated by Great
Britain, and that II was his purpose to
advise the British Cabinet of the unalter-
tain its traditional policy. This would have
been at once temperate and dignified. and
would not have presented any offense
against British pride Such a course would
have resulted In peaceful arbitration, L
think, beysnd question. II not, then we
would have been at no diplomatic disad-
vantage in enforcing our demands by war.
/ do not think that the matter could have
been settled without the demonstration of
our purpose, If need be, to fight for the in
tegrity of American nations against the
encroachments OF European powers. Eng
land has been constantly aggressive in her
policy in this hemisphere and another ques-
ton of the kind must soon have arisen.
The assertion OF our national policy was
necessary, and 1 only criticise the way it
was done.
The Press tomorrow will say: Gen.
Russell A. Alger. of Michigan. said yester-
day that he does not want second place on

What the Senator Learned About Sill
yer While I'm Europe.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 9.-Senator Wocott,
OF Colorado. who recently returned from
Europe, gave his views to-day on silver
and foreign affairs. He said: "An interna-
tional committee of the European bimetallic
leagues. including Mr.. Alard, Belgian dele
gate to the Brussels conference, and lead
ing bimetallists from England Austria,
Germany and France held an important
conference recently in Paris and 1 had
several interviews with its members. We
have little idea in this country of the I'M
selfish and important efforts throughout
England and the continent in favor of the
recognition of silver There is hardly an
intelligent land owner in Europe who is
not a bmetallist. There were two i'm
portant results OF the meeting at Paris. A
plan for an Identical resolution on the i'm
portance OF international agreement, to be
introduced in the English Parliament, the
French Assembly and the German Reichs-
tag, was agreed upon. Another important
result was the establishment of cordial and
closer relations between the bimetallist as
sociations OF the different countries of Eu-
rope, notably between France and Ger
many. And the reception accorded the
committee by the President of the French
republic was, from a foreign point of view,
important and significant The statesmen
of France and the manager of the Bank or
France are blmetaiiiSts, and public opinion
| favors bimetallism. The Paris newspapers,
however with one or two exceptions con-
trOlled by private mOnled interest, are gold
monometallsts. While bimetallists abroad
are actively. at work, 1t must nevertheless
be admitted that the prospect of any
speedy action Is not favorable. In Ger
many, where there has been much hope,
the banking element, aroused by the pos
siblity of action by the Reichstag, is ex-
pending much effort in favor Of the single
gold standard, and it's influence Is naturally
widely felt. Whoever invites this country
to await an European agreement before
opening our minis TO silver offers no hope
of definite relie<.
LAS to the Venezuelan manifesto. every
country in Europe, republican France in
cluded, viewed the Presidents message and
Mr. Olneys letter to Lord Salisbury, pub
lished in full in the London Times, with
amazement. The truculent threats Of the
administration were not. taken seriously,
except in England, but were viewed as cam
paign politics. 1t would be difficult to con-
vince Europe that this country was anxious
to intervene in a Central American boun-
dairy dispute to the extent of going to war
with nation of our own civilization, blood,
language and religion, in behalf of nom
contiguous American state, whose repub-
lies are usually military despotisms, with
an average duration of a few months. con-

CRUISER IN A STORM
EXPERIENCE of THE BALTIMORE IN

ASTORIA, Ore, Jan. 9.-The steamer Rho

The United States steamship Baltimore
arrived at Honolulu on the I'D, twenty-one
days from Yokohama The cruiser left
Yokohama on the I'd, and when six days
out struck one of the most terrific gales
ever encountered. Although the war ship
labored' hard and was tossed like a cork on
the waves, rolling mountain high, she man
aged to pass through the storm with but
little damage. Another, and If anything a
harder, blow was encountered, which kept
up for six full days. The ship behaved well
under the steady blow, but at times it
seemed almost impossible to weather the
storm. The Baltimore presented a some

SlaShed, rigging torn and other evidences
of having passed through a heavy siege.
On the way over boatswain named Jenn-

waves that swept the decks continuously
during the first gale through which the
Baltimore passed. The guns mad TO be re-
moved from the turrets, with the cannon
from forward and deck machinery placed
below. During the second blow j. Cooper
carpenter of the ship, was thrown on the
deck Of the ship and had mis- skull badly
fractured. Several others were more or less
injured, but none seriously. 1t was leceS-
Sary to keep the matches fastened down for
ten days, during which time the boats were
wrenched from their positions, and. al
though badly smashed, were not swept
away, owing to the herculean efforts of the
crew. On the arrival of the vessel carpen-
ter Cooper was taken to & hospital. where
he died the same day.
