ceedinRs of CoDgress-Senate at Last
Confirms the Appointment of Francis.
WASHINGTON, Jan. l9-Present indica-
tions are that developments ut Springfield,
Ills, may determine who is TO be secretary
of the treasury. It is understood that Ma
jor Mckinley desires TO make Senator Cul-
lom the head OF the treasury department,
but that it is especially desirable TO retain
in the senate n man from Illinois who is
thoroughly in touch with the administra-
tion
Should the Republican caucus nominate
a man who is in complete harmony with
the administration, such as Congressman
Hopkins or Congressman Hit it is prob
able that Senator Cullom will receive a
formal offer Of the position Of secretary of
the treasury and that he viii accept it. In
case the caucus selects man who is be-
lieved to be unfriendly to the incoming
administration, it will probably be deem
ed prudent to leaye Senator Cullom in his
scat in the senate and make a search in
New England for the secretary Of the treas
ury.

will create vacancy in the chirmanship,

Tho Immirrntion am.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The house and
senate conferees on the immigration bill
are meeting with several knotty problems
in their attemps to settle the differences
between the two houses. Chairman Bar
tholdt of the house committee, who was
the most determined opponent to several
of the most stringent features of the pro
posed legislation, says that unless the fea-
ture of the bill which makes the educa-
tional test apply to both men and women,
and which he thinks would if enforced re-
suit in the separation of families, is omit
ted, he will be compelled TO oppose the bill
in the house. He has proposed in confer
ence TO amend the bill by exempting wom-
en- from that test Another amendment
which he proposes is TO require that immi-
grants shall be able to read and write the
English or any other language instead of
the English or their own language. The
latter test, he says, would exclude a large
part of the Inhabitants of Russia, who use
the German language, and many worthy
Germans living in Hungary and Bohemia.
He suggests that Senator Lodges provi-
sion. that five lines of the constitution
must be read by an immigrant, be modi-
fed to one line, because the immigration
officials in New York report that the Sat
urday eargoes of immigrants, when four
or five ships reach port, could not be in
spected and discharged in three days. SEN
ator Chandler has framed substitute for
Representative Corliss' amendment to the
bill designed TO exclude Canadians who la
Dor in the United States and maintain
their homes in Canada. The substitute
would exclude those working in the Unit
ed States who "habitually and regularly
return TO Canada This is most satisfac-
tory to Mr. Corliss, who desires to exclude
those VINO come to the United States for a
season

A Convenient Invention.

An Orangeburg farmer comes to the
front with a new invention in the
shape of a Lubricator for oiling We
hicle wheels without taking them off
the axle. 1t is inserted in the hub
between two of the spokes. When
you want to grease your wheel all you
have to do is to withdraw a plunger,
which operates with a spring, snd put
as much oil as is needed on the axle.
Upon being released the spring closes
up the oil hole until it is operaed for
oiling up again. 1t is very ingeni-
GUS and clever device. and is bound to
be used generally. With these l1bri-
Gators a vehicle can be oiled W.; any
where along the road in less than one
minute. The patent for this valuable
invention is owned by the National
Lubricator Company of Orang eburg,
S. Q. Mr.. Jas. L. Sims, Editor and
Proprietor of the Orangeburg Times
and Democrat, is the manager of the
company, which is a guarantee that it
is all right. The company wants an
agent in this county to sell the Lubri-
Gators. See advertisement in another
column.
