House.

Washington, D, C., Dec. Sin e
house Mr.. Loud rep, Cal. }
from the committee on postofiices and
posroads, called up the bill to author
lie the use of private mailing cards OF
the same weight and form as the pos
tai cards now in use, when 1-cent
stamp is affixed. The scheme had
been successfully put in operation in
England where, in six months the
number of such cards mailed has in
creased from 24S.000,00 to $4,000, 600.
The bin was passed. 1t takes effect
July l, 1897. He also called up the bill
to provide limited indemnity for the
loss OF registered mail matter. II pro-
vded an indemnity of not to exceed
$40 for any one registered letter, but II
of less value not to exceed the actual
value. Such indem nity is made by near
II all foreign countries. Thepostmaster
general expressed the opinion that the
increased revenue from registered mail
would more than offset the indemnity
losses to be paid. Mr. Loud said thsl
on the basis OF last years statistics the
government could have revenue of
100000 with libality of $50. 1000
There was some criticism OF the bill
on the ground that it trespassed on
the rights of express companies, but It
Was passed by as to IS. Mr.. Loud
then called up the bill of Mr.. Sperry

ton and delivery Of mail in cities,
towns and villages where no letter
carrier service exists, BY the employ

NATIONAL RIFLES,
Company to Remain I'm the Ma
~. ttOnaI Guard

The regular monthly meeting of the
National Rifles was held last evening, with
almost the ertire membership of the COM
pany present. Matters of considerable i'm
portance, concerning the future welfare of
the command. were fully and freely dis
cussed. 1t was unanimously decided,
among other things, that whatever may be
the future action of the, company as to
the disposition of the question heretofore
raised by some of the members as to their
status or interests in the ownership of the
real and personal estate of the organiza-
ton, the National Rifles would continue
to exist. as heretofore as a first-class
military body, and not as a social club, as
has been rumored; and will parade and
participate in ceremonies as heretofore
when Of an Independent nature and not in
conflict with National Guard duty. The or
ganiZatfon further resolved to continue its
representation in the National Guard of the
Dlstrlct by generous and unanimous SUM-
port or It's company b" second battalion
nrst regiment, which company has been a
part Of the National Guard for a wear or
more, and which il now known and recog-
hlzea and always will be, as company B.
NATIONAL Rines. Probably the present COM
mandlng officer of company B. Captain
Oyster, will be retired at his own reouest
from active service in the guard owing
10 ms inability to give the company his
constant attention. but with this exception
the ofncers of the National Rifles as pres
ent constituted will also continue In COM
mand OF company b, and both bodies will
drlil' as heretofore, every Monday evening,
ana continue to keep up a good military
spirit and discipline. 1t was decided to
commence the recruiting for company b
and to enlist none therein but Young active
men, VINO Will make good soldiers and
whose moral and social standing is of the
best. None but first-class material is de-
sired, ana al such wishing to cooperate
Wfth the National Rifles in having a dis
tincuVely representative company in the
National Guard will be cordially received
INTO membership. No lines will be drawn
between the old and new commands as
has been stated, and all will be welcomed
10 the home of the parent body, and treat
cd as comrades and friends in good SOL
dlerly fellowship. The meeting was per-
lectly unanimous, well as harmonious,
IN ITS actions and deliberations and every
thing that was said and done was in the
interest OF the future prosperity of the
National Rifles and it's company b of the

Dearth of Intoxicated Pensioners I'm
Town Yesterday

The payment Of pensions under the new
law with regard to vouchers worked sue
cessfully yesterday. The clerks of the PEN
sion agency report great satisfaction on
their part with the new way. There was a
conspicuous absence about town yesterday
OF the motley and disgusting crowd of
topers and the sharks who prey on them on
pension day. The police, who usually are
on the lookout for drunken pensioners on
pension day. made no arrests of old soldiers
yesterday.
Under the act approved March % this
year, the pensioners We're paid by checks
mailed to their addresses. Instead of flock
ing to the pension agents office TO stand
all day until the clerks could receive and
compare their vouchers and hand out the
checks, the pensioners this time mailed
thelr vouchers to the agent, and there were
no pensioners calling at the Office yester-
day. The 5000 pensioners who draw their
money at the Washington agency will all
have their checks before the close of TODAY.
ana there will be a saving of four days in
the work of the office

EGYPT's COTTON.
A Large Acreage Planted in View of
Our Short Crop.

Our Short Crop.
Inspired by the high prices realized by
the cotton crop Of 1896. Egyptian plant
ers have this spring increased the area to
the maximum limit permitted by the coun-
trys irrigation facilities. Exact figures are
not prccurable, but 1t is estimated that
the increase of acreage is from 3 to S
per cent, and that this seasons area ap-
proXimates 1,150,000 acres. The grea lest
percentage Of increase is in the provinces
south of Cairo. Conservative forecasters
believe the crop will yield 10000 bales of
$50 pounds-being the equivalent of 1,125,-
coo American bales, and the largest ever
raised in the Nile valley. Predicated on the
yearly increase of shipments to America it
is probable that the United States will buy
5000 bales of the Egyptian crop, equal to
about 100000 bales of American weight.
These facts are reported to the State De-
partment by United States Consul General
Penfied at Cairo.
