WHEN LEWIS ENTERS.
New Congressman From Washington
Makes a Sensation.

Philadelphia Evening Telegraph: The
character of the present congress is ].
Hamilton Lewis. He is character not
to be comprehended all at once. He
grows upon you. 1t takes some time
to realize how strange he is. His ex-
travagance of dress and his attitude
first attract attention. When he en-
tiers the house, no matter what is do
ing, every eye instinctively turns to-
wards him, like the eyes of the audi
ence in a theater turn to the leading
man when he breaks through the
throng of minor actors.
Mr.. Lewis visits the senate fire.
Quently. There is nothing more dra-
matte than his entrance into the pres
enc of that august body. He never,
by any chance, enters through one of
the side doors. The senate may be
engaged in a heated debate or deeply
the tariff bill. Suddenly a sense of
something happening comes upon
everyone. People in the galleries look
down and the interest of the senate
is arrested. Both the swinging doors
of the main entrance at the head of
the center aisle, facing the vice presi-
dent, swing open and Mr.. Lewis ap-
pears. The doors close behind him and
he stands for moment under the arch
way, has hat and gloves in one hand
in front of him, and looks toward the
vice president with a slight inclina-
ton of the head, as much as to say,
do not let me interrupt you. Then he
looks with a sweeping glance to the
right and to the left, slightly inclining
his body. He then straightens himself
up and sweeps the galleries with
glance. By this time every eye is
upon him, and, with the graceful
dainty steps of a dancing master. he
walks over to the Democratic side of
the chamber, greeting in the most
graceful manner imaginable each SEN
ator who happens to be in his path
to the vacant seat ne is making for.
His manner of greeting is to shift his
hat and gloves from his right hand to
his left with a flourish, taking two
steps forward, as if about to swing
partners in the lancers, and then to
extend his right hand, at the same
time inclining his body gracefully. and
giving his hat q great sweep by his
side. as the ideal cavalier trails his
plume to the ground in bowling to my
lady" 1t would be impossible for him
TO enter into any presence without at
tracing attention. and apparently he
has no intention of trying to do so.
With his fluffy hair and whiskers,
both parted in the middle, he looks lik-
some of the portraits of Captain John
Smith of about the time the magma
ton of the impressionable Indian
maiden. Instead of the glittering trap
pings of a knight. his dress is a dis
play of the highest skill of the tailor.

Washington Post: There is stopping at

bears the illustrious name of George
Washingto ton, and he halls from Brussels

complexioned. good-iooking and intelli-
gent man, and is yet on the sunny side

Yes" said he. my name is George
Washington. and | am of the same stock
and family as the illustrious man who is
leoi-ed up to in the United States as the
greatest of all Americans. My great
grandfather was John Washington. a half
brother of General Washington. My
grandfather and father were born in Eng

lady. This is my second visit to the
United States. l am a great lover of this
country, and hope some day TO become a
citizen OF America
M. Washington will be here several
days on private business affairs. He is an
inventor of some celebrity. On his pre-
v:ous visit his stay was so brief that he
had not time to see Mount Vernon but
a visit to that sacred spot.

THE TELEPHONE CASE.
Argued and Submitted Before Justice
Hulaniski.

w. W. Crossman, local manager CT

terday before Justice Hulaniski, and
waived the reading of the complaint
charging him with maintaining teie-
phone without a license, contrary TO
the statutes CT Ogden City. and hence
against the peace and dignity, etc. \
plea of not guilty was entered, and then
four of the shining lights of the Utah
bar began on a great legal Oattle
before Police Justice HulaaiSki.
John D. Murphy, Z. Nj. Allison and
George Sutherland were attorneys Tor
the company, and H. H. Henderson, as
city attorney, prosecuted the case.
The case was tried on an agreed
statement OF facts, and only one Wit
ness was put on This was the assist
ant superintendent Of the company
from Salt Lake, who testified that the
into Idaho. This point was material.
as the defendants claimed that the line
extending from one state TO another
was under the protection of the inter-
state commerce Jaw.
Mr.. Henderson contended that the
company could be made to pay by city
ordinance, not only for every instru-
mitted numerous authorities on this
point.
Another point emphasized was
whether the city could enforce a reve-
nue. ordinance by prosecution. of course
the whole question rests on the valid
itv of the ordinance.
Justice Hulaniski intimated that ne
would not decide the question till after
the Fourth, and that he considered the
important points the two above noted
whether the city could enforce a reve-
nue. law by fines, and whether II was
a violation of the interstate commerce
law to pass and enforce such. an ordi-

FOR POLITICAL EFFECT.
How Silver Men Construe the Re
ports From London.

How Silver Men ConStrue the Re
ports From London.
The Washington correspondent of the
Denver Republican wires as follows:
Silver men in Washington were not
at all surprised or impressed with the
dispatches from London showing what
the United States Bimetallic commits
sion was doing and expected to do.
The silver men, without regard to
party. say that they do NOT expect
that England viii make any conces-
sions. Representative Shaforth said
that il might be possible that England
would consent TO open the India minis
but that France or Germany would
make any concessions or open their
minis with that proposal on the part
of Great Britain, was absurd. Mr..
Shaforth says that from the very ma
ture of things il is not TO be expected
as in the first place the gold men here
do not want anything done for silver
They prefer the gold standard. They
will not try to get anything else and
they are following the gold standard
men of England.
1t was stated that the promulga ton
of the partial success Of the commits
sion was made at this time for It's
effect upon conventions now about to
be held and upon the political condi-
ton in this country. Even the doughty
and usual sanguine Chandler says that
he thinks I'VE are making progress
But that is but little from him, when
a short time ago he was very exuber-
ant.
Some of the senators are of the opinion
that Senator Wolcott has escaped a
deal of hard work, which would have
been imposed upon him had he been
in Washington instead of in Europe.
AS member of the finance commit
tee he would have been expected to

CITY Council.

At the special session of the council
last night, the chief feature was the
fixing of the tax levy for the city for
1897 at nils on the dollar, l mill less
than last year.
There was lengthy and amusing
dispute between G. w. Jones and
Taylor, in which the latter referred TO
Jones as his esteemed friend from Salt
Lake" and Jones retaliated by REFER
ring to Taylor as his esteemed friend
from the Third with a piratical curl on
MS mustache.'
The tax levy matter was brought up
by a resolution by G. ". Jones, fixing
the levy at mills, and after reference
minority reports were submitted.
Taylor of the minority. reported in
favor of mills, and Ash and Pierce i'll
favor of mills. The latter was adopted.
Those who favored mills were C. ".
Jones, Taylor, and NJ. L. Jones.
The police and fire commissioner sent
in two communications from Fire Chief
Benford, one protesting against the
use of fire hydrants by water wagons,
which was referred, while the other
cited the fact that the use of the bench
fire station had been given the school
board for three years, and he recon-
mended the construction of a house for
the engine near the central fire station;
also referred.
William Reast offered to keep the
paved portion of Twenty-fifth street
clean for $125 per month. 1t was in the
discussion over. this that the show be-
tween Taylor and G.. W. Jones oc-
Cured. The proposition was filed,
which is practically a victory for the
present contractor.
The library officials thanked the
council for the use of quarters in the
city hall, and invited the members to
attend an opening on Wednesday next.
The Veteran Firemen's association
was granted the use OF a room in the
city hall twice a month.
The county auditor stated that the
valuation of property for Ogden was
SS,951. $50.
The report of the engineer puts the
cost of paving Washington avenue,
from the south side of Twenty-fourth
street to the south side of Twenty
fifth street at $16.336.S5, the abutting
property owners to pay $11,342.S5. the
street car company s2.2s7.65 and the
city $2.715.S5.
In the discussion of the tax levy, the
water tax was eliminated. This is
as showing that the suit
against the water company to forfeit
its franchise. etc, will be pushed.
Adjourned until Tuesday.
