COMMISSION GRANTS EXTENSION.
Railroads Will BE Given More Time to
Comply With Coupler Law.

Railroads Will BE Given More Time to
Comply With Coupler Law.
WAsH1NGToN, Dec. 1.-The hearing
given by the interstate commerce COM
mission on the question Of extending
the time within which the railroads of
the country may comply with the pro.
visions OF the car coupler and train
brake act was concluded at noon. The
commission intends TO take some sup.
Elemental testimony under oath before
coming to decision. There seems to
be no doubt whatever that an extension
will be granted and that the extension
will be general in character, the hear
ing having demonstrated t.lat any dis
elimination would fall as heavily on
roads which have complied with the
law as on those which have thus far
disregarded it.
The impression among both railroad
men and labor leaders who were pres
ent at the hearing is that the extension
granted by the commission will be a
compromise. The railroad representa-
tives asked for five years, with the con-
dition that one-fifth Of the unequipped
rolling stock of each company should be
equipped each year, and the representa-
tives of the railroad organizations pro-
tested against an extension in excess of
one year. Three years is generally be-
lieved to be the maximum extension
which the commission will grant. The
commission is evidently in great doubt
as to their ability to impose conditions
on an extension, and it may be that
they will grant but years extension
at time, with the understanding that
against those roads who do not COM
plete their equipment during that Pc
riod the law shall become operative.

Court MARITAL For Esterhazx.

PARIS, Dec. 5.-The military gov
ernor of Paris, General Saussier, has Or
dered court martial to examine into
the charges brought against Count
Esterhazy, the retired major of the
French army who is accused of writing
the letter which brought about the SEN
fencing of Alfred Dreyfus to imprison-
ment for life. The Journal says that
the decision Of General Saussier is based
Oh the report of General Pelleiux, who
was appointed by the minister of war
to examine into the charges brought
against Count Esterhazy, and which
was as follows: $50 far as Dreyfus is
concerned, the case has been tried, no
new facts have been brought to light
and no new documents submitted to
justify a revision of the trial. In con
sequence, there is no ground for pro.
ceeding against Count Esterhazy SO far
as regards the crime of high treason,
for which Alfred Dreyfus was con-
demned.'

Comptroller Ecke1s- Report.

WASHINGTON, Dec 7.-The annual re-
port of James H. Eckels, comptroller Of
the currency for the year ended Oct. 81,
1897, opens with brief review of the
history OF the legislation which consti.
tutes the present national bank act, and
invites the attention of congress to
amendments to the law recommended
in former reports without specifically
repeating them. The report contains
the latest compiled statistics relative to
the worlds monetary systems and the
stock of gold, silver and paper curren-
cy. A very interesting feature of this
statement is the per capita amount of
each kind of money in the countries
named. The per capita averages in the
principal countries Of the world are as
follows: United States, $23 70; United
Kingdom, 500 60; France, $34.68; Ger
many, $1S.95; Austria Hungary, 1888,
and Russia 1896, The comptroller re-
news his recommendation of last year,
urging that national bank examiners be
paid an annual salary instead of fees as

PORT AU PRINCE. Dec. 8.-The trouble
between Germany and Hayti appears
to be settled. The Haytian govern
ment has saluted the German flag, and
the foreigners who had sought refuge
on board ships in the harbor have re-
turned to their homes.
1t is understood that the question of
the indemnify demanded by Germany
for the alleged illegal arrest and impris-
onment OF Herr Lueders has been set
tied to the satisfaction of Germany and
that all the demands of that country
have been agreed to by the government
OF Hayti in face of tie display of force
made by Germany and under the threat
of bombardment of the defensive
works of the port unless these demands
were agreed to within the eight hours
following the time the German ulti-
matum was delivered yesterday morn
ing, shortly after the arrival at this
port of two German cruisers sent to
back up the demands of Germany A
part of the settlement took place at &
O'Clock last night, when the Haytian
feet formally saluted the German flag

with few guns of light caliber.

Crowds Throng the Galleries.


ance upon the opening session of the
senate, both on the floor and in the gal
leries, was notably large, despite of the
well understood fact that little business
beyond the presentation of the presi-
dents message and the proceedings in
cident thereto would be transacted
Prior to the convening of the senate
the members passed half an hour in ex-
changing greetings. Mr.. Hanna of
Ohio, who has been ill for a week, was
given cordial reception by his Repub-
lican colleagues. Mr.. Wolcott of Colo
RADIO, one of the members of the inter-
national monetary commission, was
also given a warm greeting. DR.. w.
Godfrey Hunter Of Kentucky, the re-
Gently appointed minister to Guate-
mala, was an interested spectator of the
proceedings from a seat beside his
friend, Senator Deboe.
Charles Page Bryan, the new United
States minister to China, was a notable
figure in the reserved gallery, and in
the diplomatic gallery were several
members of the Chinese legation and
several other members of other lega-
tions.
Senator Money, the new senator from
Mississippi, entered the senate soon
after the recess, but the oath was not
administered to him during the session.
The reception and reading of the
presidents message was the only feat
ure of the day.
The opening day of the regular ses-
sion in the house passed without un-
usual incident of any character. The
formalities attending the Inauguration
of the session are dry and except as
spectacle hardly repaid the crowds
which thronged the public and private
galleries. Yet with few exceptions
the visitors staid through the whole
proceedings.
Mr.. Dingley, the floor leader of the
majority Mr.. Bailey, the recognized
leader of the minority, and Grosvenor
(O.) enjoyed the distinguished honor of
being appointed to wait upon the presi-
dent, whose message was, OF course, the
event of the day. It's reading was long
and tedious, but it was followed with
close attention by the members and the
spectators in the galleries. There was
no demonstration until the reading
was concluded, when the Republicans
Joined in a hearty expression of ap-
proval. Immediately after the read
ing of the message the house adjourned
out of respect to the memories of Sena-
tor George of Mississippi and Represen-
tative Wright of Massachusetts, who
had died during the recess.
