DIFFERENT OPINIONS.
Members Can't Think of Anything
but an Extra Session.

No one seemed to know last night what
action the legislature would take on the
governors message.
Brown of PIatt. the leader of the maxi
mum rate forces, when asked what would
be done said:
the Populist members who left US on the
other bill stand pat, nothing can be done,
at this session at least. Unless a maxi
mum bill be passed 1 am in favor of
abolishing the board of railroad commits

power be extended and should special
session be called, the matter might be
disposed of, but unless some change takes
place among those who voted against

the committee is figuring on doing
something that will elicit general in
Herest in the counties.
The end will be attained, according to
present plans, by offering prizes for the
counties having the best floats in line.
Something else may be done and a sub
committee will be appointed to have
charge of the matter and arrange for
the prizes and other details.
The question of floats for the general
parade has already been considered to
some extent and one series of models
was submitted The pageant will take
a different form from that of last year.
1t is agreed that there will be several
floats of some character or another and
the committee will try to CLEAN some
ideas from the designs which they hope
will be submitted at the meeting tomor-
row evening.

HIGH PRIEST OF HIGH TARIFF

Mckinley Is.

Congressman w. d. Vincent of Clay

afternoon on his way to Washington to

Mr.. Vincent does not anticipate a

which it has been called. To a Jour-

BILLS DEFEATED yesterday.
Senate Kills Four Bills in Short Order

During the afternoon session of the
senate yesterday three bills were finally
disposed of by striking out the enact
ing clauses and another bill was killed
on the final question by vote of 10 to
II. The latter was measure intro
duced in the senate a few days ago by
Senator Farrelly, providing a way for
county attorneys to compel witnesses
to give evidence in cases of violation of
the prohibitory law.
The bills killed by striking out the
enacting clauses were: One introduced
by Senator Titus providing that the
railway companies doing business in
this state should bear the entire eX-
pense of the board of railroad commits
sioners. This bill was an exact copy
of the law now in force in Georgia. 1t
was killed by a large majority with but
little discussion.
Another was one by Senator Hart,
extending the time for holding examin-
atoms for teachers certificates to two
days. The present law provides that
one day only in January, October and
April of each year shall be consumed in
the examination of applicants.
The last bill was introduced by SEN
ator Campbell, and provided for a pro
rata distribution of the reserve funds of
fraternal benevolent associations and
mutual insurance companies in the
event such associations or companies
disbanded or changed their mode Of
business.

OIL INSPECTION.
Senator Fulton's Measure Passes the
Senate.

The senate has passed the bill intro
duced by Senator Fulton, regulating
the inspection and sale of oils The
bill changed the present law by abol-
ishing the system of collection of fees
by the state inspector in compensation
on a salary of $50 per month. The sal
airy of each deputy inspector is increas-
ed from $50 to SIS per month.
The state inspector is placed under
bond in the amount of SO, 1000, and each
deputy inspector in the amount of 3d.
OO0 Removal from office is made the
penalty for any violation of the pro-
visions of the bill by the state inSpec-
tor or any of the deputy inspectors.
Under the present law the office of
state oil inspector is probably the most
lucrative of any of the official positions
of this state.

Gibara, Cuba, March 10.-The dreaded
East Indian and Brazilian disease, ''beri-

At Holquin five or six deaths occur
daily mostly among the Spanish troops

also reported aboard government war
ships in this and other north coast ports.
This town, like that of Baracoa. is in
virtual state of siege. 1t is strongly forti-

from 50 to so cents a pound, and other ne

are full of hungry people, mostly refugees,

COMPROMISE ACT PASSES.
Cimarron and Anthony Can Now
Make Terms With the State.

The measure authorizing the attorney
general and the state school fund COM
missionerS to compromise upon the
holdings by the state permanent school
fund, of bonds issued by Cimarron and
Anthony, but now in default, passed
the house yesterday. 1t was called up
at $50 by Mr.. Hollembeak.
Mr.. Weilep opposed the bill and Mr..

although he assured the house that the
conditions in Cinarron and Anthony
fully justified the passage of the bill
