Opposition to It's Proposed Ex-

lied Tribes.
THAT HISTORICAL FRIEzE.
Argument on the Bill to Prohibit
Issuance of Interest.Bear.
ing Bonds.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 1.-The
conference report on the Indian appro-
priation bill was discussed for couple of
hours to-day, but agair went over without
action. The question that has been so
much debated in the Senate for nearly
week past is the proposition IN that report
to impose duties and rights of citizenship
on the Indians of the five civilized tribes.
it being claimed by the Senators opposed
to it that it is a violation of the treaty with
those Indians.
The report itself is only partial one,
the conference not having agreed upon the
proposed temporary continuance OF con-
tract schools for Indian children.
A joint resolution appropriating $4,000
for the completion of the historical frieze
in the rotunda of the Capitol provoked a
discussion in which Hawley of Connecti-
cut criticized the painting. both for what
it represented and for what it failed to
represent, President Cleveland being in
the first class and the surrender of APP
pomattox in the other. Finally objection
was made by Wilson of Washington to the
consideration of the resolution, and it
went over without action.
ton bill was presented and agreed to.
The private pension bill which was We
toed by the President last week because of
the misdescription of the soldiers regi-
ment was reported to-day with this mis-
take corrected and was passed.
Another veto of q private pension bill
was presented to-day. 1t was the case of
a renewal of pension to the widow of a
soldier in the Mexican war after she had
married second time, thirty-ive years
ago, and forfeited her pension. The mes
sage and bill were referred to the Com
mittee on Pensions.
The bill to prohibit the further issuance
of Understanding bonds without the con-
sent of Congress was taken up at o'clock.
An argument was made against it by Gull
lom of Illinois, who declared that the con-
sequences of its passage would be so far
reaching as to be simply appalling, but that
there was no danger of its passage by the
House of Representatives. The bill was adj
vocated by Brown of Utah. in connection
with a resolution offered by himself to-
day declaring that sin the opinion of
the Senate the Secretary of the Treasury
has no authority under the act of January
IA, 1875, to issue any further or other bonds
in addition to those already issued, and
that any such bonds that may hereafter
be issued by him would be without the
authority OF law and void.
The bill went over without action, and
at 500 o'clock the Senate adjourned until
tomorrow at IL o'clock.

NICARAGUA CANAL BILL.
Report of the House Commerce
Committee Recommending
Federal Aid.
Exception Taken to the Estimates
Made by the Ludlow Board of
Engineers.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 1.-The
report of the House Commerce Committee
on the Nicaragua canal bill was submitted
to-day without the remotest idea that any
such bill, however amended, can receive
the slightest attention from Congress at
this late period of It's session. The SUBJ
iects discussed are comprehensive, includ-
ing the action of seismic forces, the rail-
road auxiliary question, the precedent of
the Suez canal in the issue of bonds and
the lessons learned from the Chicago
drainage canal as to appliances for dredg-
ing. The report takes exceptions to the
conclusions of the Ludlow Board of
Engineers as to the unit prices of dredg-
ing and excayating ana the boards esti-
mates for earth EN- bankments.
Instead OF $133, O00, GOO, which is the Ind
low boards estimate of the cost of the
canal, the committee figures a possible
total cost of $50 600, and expects that
$100, 900 would be an ample allowance
for cost Reconstruction, even admitting the
necessity for adopting the committee 8
suggestions and notifications. The COM
mittee believes that the Government
should assist the company to complete the
WIN, even IL IL CoSS 91op,ooO,OuU OF more.
The report is signed by Sherman of New
York, Doollttle of Washington, Wanger OF
Pennsylvania, Joy of Missouri, Stewart of
Nevada, Rusk of Maryland and Elicit of
Virginia.
A number OF notifications in the pend
ing bill are suggested by Doolittle and
Sherman, the subcommittee appointed
for that purpose, to meet some of the OBJ
iections OF the commission of engineers.

Critic, the Australian, defeated Sam Ton
kins of Astoria in ten-round bout at the
South Brooklyn Athletic Club tonight.

bouts provided good sport. Harry Fisher
of Brooklyn and Jack ReaE of Ireland
fought fast ten-round draw. Soliy Smith
OF Los Angeles and Dolly Lyons of New
York were the principals in the second
bout The referee called the bout draw,
but Smith led nearly all the work and

FAMOUS La ABRA CLAIM.
1t Enters Its Final Stage in the Coss
of CTuirns

or CLAIMS.
WASHINGTON, D. c., June 1.-The
famous La Abra claim against Mexico,
which has been before the courts and Con-
gress for thirty years or more, entered
upon its final stage before the Court of
Claims this morning. The claim was for
mining property in Mexico belonging to a
New York company, alleged to have been
destroyed by Mexican forces because of
hostility to the United States. An award
for a large amount was made by COM
mission against the Mexican Government,
and portion of that award was paid over
to the claimants, but before the balance
could be turned over allegations of fraud
were made by the Mexican Government
and the United States State Department
stopped payment OF the award and re-
ferred the question to Congress, which
finally directed the Court of Claims to re-
open the case and make finding as to the
facts. Ex-Secretary Foster, ex-Assistant
Attorney General Maury and Crammond
Kennedy appeared as counsel in the case.

The way in which McNab stole forth in
the darkness with his moccasin tread and
suddenly bouncing on the unsuspecting
Mcguire declared him nominated for
Congress was highly amusing to many.
If the entire Junta delegation should
be seated at Sacramento and the Buckley
delegation wholly shut out this affair of
last night would thus be made the regu-
lar Democratic Congressional Convention
of the Fourth District and no second ,one
would be held.
Should it turn out that way McNab's
Congressional convention would become
historical. McNab created it and when
the right instant arrived McNab ended it.
But Gavin is elated at having out
trickcd the Buckleyites in the Fourth
Congressional District. 1t is forcible re-
minder of the way we used to pl ay
''poison" when we were kids.
McNab was afraid that if it leaked out
that the Junta Democrats of the Fourth
Congressional District were going to NOM
mate Mcguire they would send out rum
hers and hold convention before supper
time. He was also afraid that if people
knew about it something in conflict with
his programme would be worked up.
But McNab accomplished two things
last night. He squared" the Junta as far
as it could be done for sitting down on
Mcguire as unworthy to represent the
party in its National council, and he got
in another defense of himself against the
a. P. a. charges against him.
He also demonstrated his ability as a
political leader and his possession of those
qualities of true boss that make men
follow him. This coup is thought likely
to strengthen him in the party and to aid
him in his reaching for control of the
State Central Committee for himself
Daggett and Gould. A leader who can
shake a trump like that out of his sleeve
at the right instant will be recognized as
the one to lead the party to sublime
victory.

A Correction

A Correction
(To the Editor of The Herald)
Kindly correct slight error which has
crept into your journal today in regard
to my lecture given last night.
1t is stated that I said: That DR.. An
derson, president of the San Francisco
society had denounced Mrs. Tingley to
be nothing more that professional
medium" What DR.. Anderson said to
me was the following, namely: THAT
Mrs. Tingley had been a professional
medium, but now was an adept and
that she had been placed at the head of
their esoteric section, and that they all
acknowledged her as Madame Blavat-
sky's successor
This, to me, is a perfect farce, for
Madape Blavatsky vigorously condemn
ed professional and paid mediumship,
and told us most seriously that never
would she after her death control or
communicate with any mediums.
Since the death of Madame Blavatsky
about thirty mediums have claimed to
have communicated with her, and in
accordance with her expressed desire
have told them that they were mistaken.
That Mrs. Tingley should suddenly be
transformed into an adept is to me
simply ludicrous and ridiculous. and
those who can believe such nonsense
must be under powerful delusion.
Yours truly,
CONSTANCE wACHTMEISTER.

against the Judgment Of the men who
were most eminent in the business
world, and contrary to the advice OF the
most prominent students of political
economy. They were concessions to a
strong party which insisted that the
power of the United States govern
ment was sufficient to overcome the
influences which were steadily widen .
ing the margin between the values or
gold and silver.
A perusal Of the debates in congress
in 1878 will show that the free-silver ad-
vocates then thought that the purchase
of $4,000, 900 worth of free silver an
nually by the United States government
would put silver back to a price on a
parity with gold. But it did not have
the effect. Then the law of 1890 was
adopted providing for the purchase Of
54, 900, 0c0 ounces of silver annually-all
that the United States was then produc-
ing.
Mr.. Bland and Senators Vest and
Plumb and Stewart and nearly all the
silver leaders were confident that, as a
result of the law of 1890, silver would
rise to $1.29 an ounce and make the
metal In silver dollar of equal value
with the metal in the gold dollar. Even
John Sherman acquiesced in the expert
ment with some hopes, expressed in con-
gress at the time, that it would COM
pletely restore the value of silver. The
disastrous results of that experiment
are known to everybody and should
have persuaded every sane and un-
preJudiced mind that the United States
is utterly powerless to maintain the
value of silver at its old ratio with
gold.
The law of 1890 resulted in increasing
the demand for silver in this country,
and increasing the supply of gold in.
other countries. by driving 200 millions
of gold out of this country into Europe.
But neither the increased supply of
gold abroad. nor the increased demand
for silver here. had any appreciable ef-
feet to bring the value of the two metals
closer together.
Now, after these tremendous and
costly experiments have been made. and
have failed to accomplish their purpose.
the silver men keep on repeating the
falsehood that legislation in this coun-
try has been against silver
1t is one of the most notable examples
on record Of the persistency of prejudice
and of the preconceived notion in over
coming the capacity of the human mind
to assimilate facts and to build thereon
a rational idea of the relations between
cause and effect.
