measures were the demonstration of sil- yer in 1873, the Sequestra tion of the gold reserve in the treasury in 1878, the power given to the secretary or the treasury in 1880 to preserve the parity between the metals, the power to sell bonds at pri- vate sale and the power to enable private persons to contract to dispense with the legal tender laws in their transactions.
 In reference to the Rothschilds and Seligmans as princes of finance MT. Morgan spoke sneeringly of the latter as people who used to sell cheap clothing down in Alabama" He expressed his willingness to have greenbacks funded into gold bonds if silver certificates were issued to take the place of the green backs in the volume of currency and if the silver in the treasury were coined for the redemption of these certificates.
 Mir. Morgan occupied two hours in reading his speech. The floor was then taken by MT. Butler of North Carolina, who will speak on the bill tomorrow.
 The senate at 4:10 p. m. adjourned until tomorrow after a short colloquy, in which MT. Chandler, republican, of New Hampshire, remarked sarcs tically that he had thought at one time of welcoming MT. Hill to republican caucus, but there was no hope of that now.
 T am inclined to agree with you in that statement" MT. Hill replied.
 The House Takes Up Pension Appropria-
 tion.
 In the house today at the opening of business Mir. Morse, republican, of Mas sachusetts, offered a resolution instruct ing the committee on foreign affairs to inquire into the expediency of reporting to the house an expression of this gov ernment in regard to the Armenian out rages and looking to the cooperation of the allied powers to wipe the Turkish government off the face of the earth" It was referred to the committee on for eign affairs.
 Today being the second Monday in the month was, under the rules, set aside for the consideration of business relat- Ing to the District of Columbia and two measures of local interest were passed.
 The pension appropriation bill for the fiscal year ending June 30 1897-the first of the general appropriation bills report ed-was taken up in committee of the whole. It appropriates $141, 1925, ,S20, which is some 900 less than the amount car ried by the last bill and about the same amount below the estimates.
 MT. w. A. Stone, republican, of Penn sylvania, explained the bill and the two changes made by 1t in the existing law which were to make pension granted date from the time of the first applica- ton without regard to intervening rejec- tions and limiting to $500 the income which dependent widows may receive and yet be eligible to pension.
 MT. Graf, republican, of Illinois, gave notice of an amendment making a pen sion vested right and attacked the pres ent pension policy.
 MT. Bartlett, democrat, of New York opposed any further extension of the pension system.
 At 4:30 p. m., without disposing of the bill, the committee rose and the house adjourned until tomorrow.

South Carolina,s I.awmakers.

Columbia, S. C., Jan. 13.--The general assembly meets tomorrow. The session will be a particularly long and important one, as the statute laws will be made to conform to provisions of the new consti- tution The only important election will be the choice of an associate justice for the supreme court. The election laws will command the greatest interest, but SO far there has been absolutely nothing to indicate any serious division. The re- form element is in large majority and it is unlikely that there will be serious organized opposition to it.
 The raising of additional revenue will also be an expressing feature and several radical bills on this line are expected to be introduced

JONATHAN REASSURES JOHN BULL By Invoking His Kind Offices for Americans.
 in The Transuanl.

Washington, Jan. 13.-At an interview with Secretary Olney this mprning con- cerning the case of John Hays Hammond of San Francisco, prominent mining engineer who was arrested in the Trans vaal presumably on suspicion of being connected with the alleged conspiracy of the Uitlanders, Senators White and Per kins of California were informed that Mr. Olney had cabled MT. Manyon, United States consular agent at Jo- hannesburg, to secure protection for ali American citizens there. MT. Olney has also sent dispatch to Ambassador Bay ard requesting him to secure the good offices of British representatives in South Africa for the same purpose.
 Hammonds answer was not brought to the attention of the state department through MT. Manyon, but by friends of Hammond in California and in this city. Until the arrest Is officially reported Mr. Olney will not probably make any specific representations as to Hammond's case. There are said to be about 500 citizens of the United States in the Transvaal, principally in Johannesburg, but so far us the state department is aware none of these, with the exception of Ham, mond, has been arrested. MT. Olney's dispatch to Ambassador Bayard is con- sidered as significant in showing that, despite the somewhat strained feelings caused by Mr. Olney's note and the pres ident's message on the Monroe doctrine, the relations between Great Britain and the United States are cordial. It is not improbable that considerable benefit in bringing about a speedy settlement of the Venezuelan boundary difficulty may re- suit through MT. Olney's instructions to the ambassador.
 Certainly 1t Is the first opportunity this government has had of showing its feel ings toward Great Britain since the Ven- ezuelan message was sent to congress and 1t may be that the administration was actuated In directing Mir. Bayard to secure the good offices of British officials, when 1t might as we'll have selected Ger man consular officers in the Transvaal for the purpose. by desire to show the British government and people that the United States government is not hostile to Great Britain in it's intention and will take all proper measures to avoid possi- bIe trouble over the affair.

Baltimore, Jan. 13.-Another firm of oyster packers and canners went to the wall today. The Robert c. Griffiths com pany was the sixth firm to assign within week. The estimated assets are $10,- 900; liabilities are considerably more. The Griffiths company employed over 100 persons during the business months. They, with all other canning concerns. have experienced a sudden increase in prices of raw goods, and owing to the ter rife competition, a decrease in prices and demand for the manufactured arti- ola

A LIVELY PLACE.
Old Sonora, Tuolumne County, is
Having a Boom.

w H Davis and wife Of this city re-
Gently visited Sonora, Tuoluhnne Coun-
ty, whence they left a day or two since
for Los Angeles. Writing to friend
here Mr.. Davis says of the old mining
town:
Sonora is booming mountain min
ing town. 1t never felt the depression in
business circles that has existed all over
the State. They have erected fine
hotel there, the Victoria, which cost
about $75, 900. Everything f1rst-class.
Teams are going in and out of Sonora
at all hours of the day, hauling freight
from the railroad-Oakdale on the one
side and Milton on the other. They do
not want a railroad any nearer, because
they say it would break up the freight
ing, and that would mean killing off
the blacksrniths, Wagon-makers, hv-
cry men, etc.
1T looks odd to see the little town
lighted up with electricity. so far away
in the mountains. 1t seems so strange
to see a bright electric light away up
in the mountains long before you reach
Sonora. That is the Rawhide gold mine,
employing in the neighborhood Of 10O
men. There are quite a number OF
mines working up there, employing from
fifty to seventy-five men.
"Oh, that stage ride! My poor knees
and back. Returning from Sonora to
Milton you are in the stage from 6:3O
IN the morning until about = o'clock in
the afternoon An opposition stage line
has caused a reduction in the fare, and
you ride all that distance for 81, with
the dust thrown in.

and in need, and for this kind of work
there are the slum sisters, so often
called "slum angels" and then there
were the poor out-of-work and discour-
aged men. For them. food and shelter
homes were provided while the farm
colony provides them with work, and
thus they return to position and honor.
One of the newest departures of the
army in the line of the social scheme
is insurance, banking and trading.
Stores are being established and man
aged by the Salvationists, and all the
profits are used for the salvation of the
world. The profits are for no individ-
ual but for the army. Though it is di-
crossing somewhat I would like to say
here that General Booth has never re-
ceived a cent of salary from the army
since it began, nor does he own plank
Of timber in it. He is supported by
parties outside of the army, who have
agreed to pay for his actual needs, and
he gives his entire time, together with
all the profits on all his books, to the
army.
AS the religion of Jesus Christ is an
iD Dternational religion, so the army is
ali international army, and we are not
sure but it may be one Of the plans of
God in it's existence that it become an
international peacemaker. In every
country where it is to be found its off,
GERS adapt themselves to the people Of
that country until, as in this country,
its officers and soldiers are almost en-
tirely American citizens, by birth or
choice. The attitude of the army to the
churches is very friendly. And the
feeling in it's ranks is that every or
ganization that is lifting up Christ is
helping every other one that is doing
the same, and it wishes God-speed to
all that are helping to establish the
kingdom of Jesus Christ and better the
condition Of mankind
The motto of the Salvation Army
The World for God" is very broad
one, but it's object Is nothing less, and
it is the hope of those who see the need
of it that it may not die until its pur-
pose as expressed in its motto has been
accomplished.-J. N. Parker, in Cleve-
land Leader
