Harvard Orators Loading Their Meeting
With Princeton Debaters.

Cambridge, Mass, Deoem Der 12-Great
interest is being taken AZ Harvard over
tho third annual debate with Princeton.
which will take place at Alexander hail.
Princeton, next Friday evening. Harvard
has not yet been beaten by Princeton In
debats and with ths single exception OF
q defeat at New Haven last year her rec
ord In intercollegiate debates is one Of
unbroken trump. This year, frinceton IL
making every effort to wrest the forensic
laurels fl ON Harvard and regain her old
time supr emacy as the leadln0 school of
oratory in America. Hnfvard's team is
slightly weaker than either Of the two
which defeated Princeton in "a and 'oh
Moreover Princeton has the average Of
faculty assistaAue which q Harvard rsgu-
lation forbids to Harvard debaters. All
in all, the Can. bridge men feel more du-
biops about the result than In any pre-
vious year. Harvard g team, however, was
selected only after very searching pre-
liminary debates and the speakers are
presumably the strongest available. They
are as follows; Sidney 3. WlishtinSt1n'
ss, and Lewis O'Brien, ''e7, alternate.
The subject is: "Resolved that, assum-
ing the adoption Of adequate constitu-
tional amen aments, the United States
should institute system Of responsible

Harvard has to support the negative

The Sugar Industry.

The question of the destruction of the
English colonial sugar industry is sup
posed by the free trade English press to
be solved by the argument that the
growth of the English oonfection and
preserved fruit industry more than Gov
ers any loss, arising from ths cessation
of colonial trade. This is true in AN
immediate practical sense, and points the
moral of thu interviews on the subject
contained In recent dispatches, in which
the annexation CT the British Antilles t
the United Status was. shown to be the
natural issue of the situation. But the
gravitation of the West Indian colonies
towards the United States is no part of
the programme of the imperial fedora
rionists. Mr.. Chamberlain's commission
of inquiry into the West Indian sugar in
dustry is such IN obvious put-off and SO
absolutely futile that the imperial feder
alton leaders will have nothing to do
with it. So, when Parliament meets,
there will appear in the notice OF motions
in the Houses several proposals that the
deoaying condition of the West Indian
sugar industry shall at once be met by a
system of counterva1ling duties.
The interest reused by the revival in
an acute form of this trouble recalls
the opinion expressed by Mr.. Gladstone
some ten years ago, after the London con-
ference on the bounties system. II
think he said, "that both the trader
and the workman engaged in the busi-
ness of refining sugar have great reason
to complain. My desire is that the Brit
ish consumer should have both sugar and
every commodity at the lowest price at
which it can be produced without arbi-
trary favor to any Of those engaged In
the competitions: but l cannot regard
with favor any cheapness which is pro-
duced by means of the concealed sub
sides of foreign state to a particular
industry, and with the effect of gripping
and distressing capitalists and workmep
engaged in lawful branch of British
trade. !" The quotat tion here is expressly
made because, on absolute official infor-
matiou, it will ultimately form the basis
Of the action of the English government
in settling the question. Mr.. Chamber
lain knows the absurdity of the COM
mission, and the ultimate issue of the
whole matter is that either the continent
tai bounty giving powers abolish boun-
ties. or the colonies obtain countervail-
ing duties.

WHERE THE PRESIDENT WoRSHlPs.
A Church Poor in Looks But Rich In Its
Preachers Eloquence.

Washington, Dec. 10-"This Entrance
for Pewholders Only" such is the
sign one sees In large letters over the
door of an unpreteutious. almostssh bby
church on AZ street. The vicinity Is
not fashionable one nor the surround
ings such as one would expect for
fashionable 5ohurch. This is, however, a
church with double attraction for
visitors in Washington. The President
and his family attend service here and
the famous DR.. Talmage breaches twice
every Sunday.
A stranger must be at the entrance
long before the hour for service and wait
In line for II o'clock whom pew-holders
are expected to be in their seats and all
vacant seats arc open to the public. a
mil ar arrangement is made for the
evening service.
The church was once fourish1ng and
the neigh borhood one of good substantial
residences. Gradually business en-
oroaohed upon it and people moved away
to other parts of the city and severed
their connection with the old church to
become members of other. churches nearer
home. Finally the mother church real
lied that it's condition was alarming ano

HANNA SAID TO BE WILLING
To Accept A Cabinet Position If 1t
Is Offered Him.
TWO PORTFOLIOS MAY BE GIVEN
TO NEW YORK MEN.

One May Go to a Member of tho Platt ma
Man-The President Elect Does Not
Favor Extreme Tariff Legislation
Thinks the Tariff Bill Should Be Fair
@S Adequate and Thorough.
Canton, Ohio, December 13.-AfteI
week Of great activity, Major Mckin-
Icy enjoyed rostful Sunday. He walked
to church in the morning and later called
at his mothers, where he remained to
dinner. 1t is believed that Mr.. Hanna
has made up his mind go into the cabi-
net if a place is offered him, as 1t will
doubtless be. There is no probability
that two of the most Important places In
the cabinet, that of Secretary Of State
and Secretary of the Treasury, will be
filled before the middle of January.
Major Mckinley is giving the problems
which confront him due consideration.
He will not permit himself to be hur-
ried. The New York situation Is the
most complicated and may be solved by
the selection of two cabinet officers from
the state, one man to whom Platt Is
friendly, and one particularly acoepta BILE
to the original Mckinley men. G. N.
Bliss, Andrew D. White, Horace Porter.
Stewart l.. \ oodford, are named most
frequently. 1t is certain that no one in
New York state has besn offered cabi-
net portfolio
The candidates for other than cabinet
positions are beginning to manifest
themselves in Canton. VIM. NJ. nahn
of Ohio is candidate for the position
of commissioner of pensions.
Visitors tG Canton who have talked
with Major Mckinley about tariff leR1s.
lation, indicate that he is not in favor OF
an extreme measure of any sort, and he
has impressed upon thosa congressman
with whom he has discussed the matter
the idea that no bill will do that shall
not be so fair, thorough and adequate
that with little revision from time to
time, it will stand ten or twelve years
and give the country an era of normal
prosperity and freedom from tariff agita-
lions.

CONGRESSIONAL FORECAST.
What the Law Makers Are Likely to
Do This Week.
FRIDAY MAY SEE THE ADJOURN
MENT OF BOTH BRANCHES
FOR THE HOLIDAYS.

The Homestead Bill Likely to Cause Some
Antagonism in the senate-The DiDgley
Bill to BE Called up Again-Cuban
Affairs Liable to Be Brought Up for
Discussion at Any Moment-Military
Appropriation Bill Expected to Be ON
the House Calendar by Wednesday.
Washington. December 13.-The in-
effectual effort made last week to side
track the immigration bill, indicates
that that measure Will be maintained
as unfinished business in the Senate un-
til it has been put to final vote. By
unanimous consent the House bill pro-
viding for free homesteads on public
lands in Oklahoma territory for actual
and bona fide settlers, who are reserying
public lands for that pnrpose, has been
made q special order to follow the i'm.
migration bill. The homestead bill is
likely to arouse some antagonism. and IL
Is believed ii will come to a vote with
out unusual delay, Beyond these two
sub bjsots there is nothing on the Senate
calendar having the right Of way.
Mr.. Morrill's resolution prohibiting the
use of the Congressional library for the
purpose Of the inaugural ball, II likely
to be reported from the committee and
called up. The friends Of the resolution
claim it will readily pass when 1t has
been reported. Cuban affairs are likely
to come to the front at any moment
Mr.. Allen. who, the other day, called
up the Dingley bill. will do SO again
when favorable opportunity offers itself.
In tho House Of Representatives to-
morrow is District Of Columbia day, un-
der the rules. The bill defining the
rights Of tho purchasers of franchise and
property of the Atlantic and Pacific Rail-
road Company, sold under foreclosure Of
mortgage, aut horized by act of 1871, Will
come up probably on Tuesday. 1t is within
the power of the House under the con-
ditions now prevailing, to give rs much
time as may be desired to the considera-
tion of this measure. The military Rp-.
Precipitation ni1l is expected to be on the
House calendar in time for discussion on
Wednesday, and the Legislative. executive
and judicial bill by Thursday.
it is among these probabilities that the
adjournment Of Congress for the holi-
day recess will be taken on Friday. The
subject Was discuased by the Republi-
can mem bers of the committee on why's
and means, Saturday, but no conclusion
was reached. The recess, whenever IT be-
gins, Is expected to extend until Mon
dar or Tuesday sitter New Years day.
