Baked by POpulists.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-The Republican
Senators who have already placed Senator
Frye in nomination for President pro tenn.
had laid their plans to attempt his cleo
ton tomorrow, but they were frustrated
by the opposition of the Populist Senators,
who have agreed to only formally antago-
nize the efforts Of the Republicans to COM
plete the organization on Republican lines.
The Populists do not withdraw from their
position but they insist that when the
election takes place it shall be for all the
elective officers of the Senate and not for
any one in advance of the others. On this
this plan and now that the Utah Senators
are in their seats have decided to hold
caucus Thursday in case the Senate adj
journs in time. They will then decide
whether or not they will attempt to secure
all the elective officers including President
pro tenn, secretary and sergeant-at-arms.

10000. 900 Needed for Coast Defense

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-Major General
Nelson A. Miles, commanding the army, be-
fore the committee on coast defenses to-day,
made a statement of the condition Of the
coast defenses both the Atlantic and
Pacific coasts and the Gulf Of Mexico. He
stated that the guns now mounted at Saw
annah, Charleston and other ports are
smooth bores Of obsolete patterns and USE
less and are mounted on rotten carriages.
The only places where provision has been
made for any considerable defense are New
York, San Francisco and Boston and the
defenses at these places entirely in
adequate and insufficient. He said that our
cities are open to attack by any country
having a large navy and that it would
take years to create the necessary arma-
nent. He estimates that the entire cost
Of coast defenses for adequate protection of
the country at about 100000 for fortifica-
tions and guns. This would not include the
cost of ammunition and prOiectileS.

MIR. THURBER's VIEWS.
Congress should Pass Tariff, Funding
and Bankruptcy Bills.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2s.-Francis B. Thur
Der. of New York. appeared before the
House committee on Pacific railroads to-
day as a representative of the National
Board of Trade and the New York Board
of Trade and Transportation to advocate the
passage of a funding bill for the Pacific
railroads He recommended Senator Frye's
bill for hundred years extension of the
debt at 3 per cent. The settlement Of the
Pacific railroad finances, he said, affected
the business interests of the entire country.
He had aroused the commercial bodies of
the country to the support of the anti
pooling clause of ex-senator Reagan's in
terestate commerce bill, but the logic OF
events had convinced Senator Reagan and
himself that the prohibition of pooling was
unnecessary and that railroad rates were
forced as low by competition and other
forces as they could be. The rates on the
Pacific railroads were less than one-third
of the standards at the establishment of
cred in paying obligations incurred on the
basis of those conditions. Congress should
do three things to settle the bushes inter
ests of the country" he said. Pass a tariff
bill to increase the revenue, a Pacific rail-
road funding bill and bankruptcy bill
Mr. c. II. Tweed, attorney for the Central
Pacific, also spoke. In the hearing yeSter-
day, Mr.. Patterson, of Tennessee, had
asked Mr.. Pierce, of the Union Pacific,
whether that company would be able to
comply with a proposition to pay the prin-
cipal of its debt to the government within
a short time If the interest was RENTED.
and Mr.. Pierce answered in the affirma-
tive. To-day Mr. Johnson, of California,
asked the same question of Mr.. Tweed, and
he answered that he did not see how the
Central Pacific railroad could comply with
such proposition. Its ability to do so
would depend on the condition of the money
market and whether the company could
make a showing of earnings good enough
to float the issue of bonds necessary to
raise the funds, and he doubted whether
such a showing could be made. Mr.. Tweed
declared that the ninety-nine-year lease of
the Central Pacific held by the Southern
Pacific would not operate TO prevent its
acceptance Of the terms of the Frye bill.

MoneY,s Lfn,it.

How much did II cost McKinley's
campaign for the nomination. How
much will IL cost--his campaign for
election?
Mckinley Is poor. He is worse than
poor, he owes more money than he can
pay. Yet his canvass in thirty or more
States has been the most elaborate,
persistent and expensive pursuit OF a
nomination the country has ever wit
messed. Agents who do not work for
nothing or for pittance have been
bobbing up wherever there was Nc
kinley work to do. Literature has
been ready for anybody that would
publish or read IL. Information bu-
reaus have been at work In town 1000
miles from Canton. Communication
has been kept up with McKinleyites In
every hamlet.
Anybody who has dabbled even a
little in politics knows something oi
what 1t costs to organize single city
or county for purposes OF promoting a
cause or collecting reliable information.
In behalf of Mckinley organization for
promotion and information has been
applied to nation with a skill and
disregard of expense which showed
the presence Of persons accustomed To
dealing with monster enterprises and
not afraid TO invest great sums for
greater returns.
There was no concealment here this
week of the intention to spend money
on a large scale for McKinley's cleo.

on great number Of delegates was

Hard Times.

What has caused the .sharG times,
through which we are passing? About
every one has his theory about II. One
man says IL is the gold standard, an
other that IL Is the danger OF free
coinage; one that IL Is because tariff
duties are too high, another that II is
because the duties are so low as 20 food
the country with foreign goods, and
these are only examples OF the wide
diversity OF opinion that exists.
Perhaps the strangest theory OF all,
which nevertheless seems TO have many
adherents, Is that the bicycle has caus-
ed L. II Is reasoned out thus: Humid
reds OF thousands OF persons have been
saving every spare penny 20 buy a
wheel, and have thus killed other bust
ness. Men, women and young people
Of both sexes wear their old clothing,
economic In food and resort TO other
means Of saving, and thus the bust
ness Of the butcher, the baker and the
candlcstick-maker is seriously dimin-
ished.
Watches, pianos. jeweiry, books and
other articles not necessary In the
strictest sense OF the word used 10 be
Injuries; now all these are neglected
for the bicycle. The market for horses
was greatly injured by the substitution
OF electricity for animal power In NOV
Ing street cars. The trade certainly
had another serious blow when the BIZ
cycle became the popular mode of loco
motion.
In all this there Is an element OF ex-
aggcration, but it cannot be denied
that there Is measure Of truth In the
theory. That is, the demand for BIZ
cycles has probably intensified the bad
times. But neither hard times nor
good times are the result OF one cause.
IL Is a mistake 20 fix upon one pecu-
liarity Of the situation and say, remove
that and all will be we'll. So far rs the
bicycle is held responsible for the busi-
ness depression, IL is sufficient to point
70 the fact that the wheel-craze is quite
M prevalent In Europe as IL Is In this
country, and yet business abroad Is in
excellent condition. Youth's Compan-

TO FILTER The PAWTUxET.
Council Will Probably Adopt the Natural
System Monday Night.

Monday evening the Common Council
will have another go at filtration, which
has been made the special order for that
meeting, and II is expected that this time
the Council will vote TO spend s2sl, 900 for
a natural filtration plant opposite Petta-

ly new in the matter, except that expert
Weston agrees that sand filter can be
worked advantagcously IL there Is room
enough and he is gratifcd to note that
instead of covering elk acres as at first
proposed ten acres will be recommended.
According to Mr.. Shedd ana the joint
special committees report there is no
hindrance to the passage OF the resolu-
tlon. This question has been agitating
the public MUD for many years, every
body agreeing that the Pawtuxet water
needs purifying, and several reports and
resolutions have been submitted to the
City Council with the effect Of reverting
to the starting point with little, II any
thing, gained.
