SUNDRY CIVIL BILL IN THE
HOUSE ALLOWS A WIDE
RANGE OF DEBATE.
THE INTERNAL REVENUE |NFORMERS
The Appropriation to Pay Them Debated
Pro and Con-The Senate Considers
the Postoffice Appropriation Bill.
Mail Subsidies.

Washington, March 31.-The house
spent the day considering the sundry
civil bill and fair progress was made.
No amendments of Importance were
adopted. A determined effort was made
by some of the Southern representatives
to strike from the bill the appropriation
of $4,000 for the pay of internal rev.
enue informers, which is particularly OBJ
noxious to people in. the ''moonshine''
districts, but it was unsuccessful.
Mr.. Adams Rep.) of Pennsylvania I'M
dertook to correct some of the false re-
ports as to the alleged compact between
certain free silver Republicans and some
Philadelphia manufacturers. In that
connection he referred to the resolutions
adopted last night by the Manufacturers
club of Philadelphia.
Mr.. Hartman of Montana and other
free silver Republicans, in reply, charg-
ed that they had been persistently and
maliciously misrepresented by the ''gold
bug" press. The conference had not
been of their seeking. Mr.. Pickler of
South Dakota, also made a statement
concerning what he said had been a mis-
representation of the Republican plat
form of his State.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1896-04-02
of $4,000 for the pay of in

formers.
Mr.. Evans (Rep.) of Kentucky, who
was at one time commissioner of internal
revenue, opposed the motion, asserting
that the withdrawal of these rewards to
informers would paralyze the internal
revenue Office.
Mr.. Sayers Dem) of Texas also op-
posed the amendment and read from the
reports to show the extent of illicit dis
tilling in Virginia, North Carolina, Geor-
gia and other Southern States. Those
operators of illicit stills, said he, are
making perfect hell of one of the fairest
portions of this country. They are. con-
verting the corn that properly belongs
to their families for food into whisky,
which degrades their manhood and cor
rupts their morals.
'This appropriation" interrupted Mr..
Evans, yields better return to the gov
ernment than any other appropriation"
Il agree with you," exclaimed Mr..
Sayers.
do you believe that officers should be
allowed to enter private houses, inter
posed Mr.. Livingston Dem.) of Georgia,
"and break open closets, drawers, etc,
in search of moonshine whisky? Would
you accept an amendment to provide that
these seizures be made by due process of
law?"
haI Nouiu pN w hOthy ehN
offenders that the officers are coming
replied Mr.. Sayers.
Mr.. Linney Rep) of North Carolina,
in support of the Tate amendment, de-
clared that no fund expended in sacred
or profane history, excepting the 30
pieces of silver received by Judas, had
been put to such base uses as this appro-
priation for the pay of informers.
Mr.. Mccall Rep) of Tennessee, men,
ber of the appropriations committee,
vigorously attacked the informer system
and urged the Republicans of the North
to abolish it.
Mr.. Cannon, chairman of the appropria-
tions committee, argued against the
amendment. He pointed out the great
temptation to evade the law where the
tax on the product of bushel of corn
was about S., and insisted that this fund
was essential to the detection or viola
tions of the law.
Mr.. Layton Dem.) of Ohio called atten-
ton to the fact that the opponents of this
appropriation came from the moOnshne
district of the South. By means of this
appropriation, he said, illicit stills were
last year destroyed.
The amendment was lost-24 to Il.
After completing SO pages, of the bill
the committee rose and at 5:O5 p. IN. the
house adjourned.

PRONOUNCED AS FALSE.

Washington, March % -Mavroyeni
Bey, the Turkish minister, who, it was
stated, had been recalled because of the
sympathy of the government with the Ar
menians, officially denies the report.
The minister makes the following tele-
gram public, received by him from the
Turkish minister of foreign affairs:
"The news telegraphed to the London
Times regarding the Turkish legation of
Washington being false, you may contra
dict it."

AS TO RECIPROCITY.

Washington, March -Representa-
tive Hopkins of Illinois, chairman of
the subcommittee on ways and means
of the house, having in charge the sub
ject of reciprocal trade relations with
foreign countries, has received a num-
ber of letters during the past week ON
this subject.
As rule, the replies are favorable to
reciprocity. The Louisiana sugar and
rice exchange and the New York grocers
association think that some provision
should be made for bounty on sugar.
Some of the writers favor reciprocity
with Spanish-American countries only
and others designate articles which they
think would be benefited.
The National Association of Wool
Manufacturers believe most heartily in
the general principle of the reciprocity
clause of the act of 1890.
