Whereas, The purchasing power of the
dollar has been largely increased, and
wages and the products Of labor greatly

and Charles W. Walter TO recover ce rtain
goods and chsttels and for $500 damages.

wrongfully hold aud detain certain

IMPORTANT ACTION

Present Week.

Is Expected In the Senate During the
Present Week.
Washington, May 3.-The senate re-
sumed business in earnest and the
week bids fair to be one of important
results.
According to agreement a vote will
be taken on the arbitration treaty on
Wednesday. 1t is also quite probable
that the committee vacancies will be
filed and that the tariff bill will be
reported to the senate.
For the rest, Senator Morgan will
probably call up his Cuban resolution,
the sundry civil appropriation bill
may be passed, and Senator Hoar has
given notice that he will move to have
the committee on rules discharged
from the further consideration of his
itation of debates.
There is great uncertainty as to the
fate Of the treaty, and 1t now looks
as II the margin would not exceed
two or three votes. whatever the re-
suit may. be. There are a few unas-
certained votes which will decide the
result.
A canvass shows 40 votes certain
for the treaty and 25 certain against
1t. Twenty-nine votes in opposition
are sufficient to defeat it, but the oppo-
sition do not know just where those
four votes can be found.
The consideration Of the sundry
civil appropriation bill has been post
poned until Senator Allison, who will
have charge of It in the senate, could
be present.

An incident that practically illustrates
the workings Of Mr.. MoKinley's tariff
ideas, is told by Ki Numan, the well
known proprietor Of the Nuinan House,
In his city. Ki recently had occasi On
to buy some table linens for the hotel,

Ki wore a Mckinley button all winter
and had it on his coat in the store.
He has taken 1t off since and he is
scratching all the hair off his head

POSTAL EXPERTS.
Universal Congress Ready to
Meet In Washington.
SIXTY COUNTRIES REPRESENTED.

Delegates From Every Organized Govern
Raent on the Globe, Save China, Corea
and the Orange Free states, win Par
ticipate In the Convention-How the
Visitors win BE Entertained.
Washington, May 3.--The postal OPP
trations of the world will pass in re-
view before one of the most distin-
guished bodies that ever met in this
country when the universal postal
congress convenes in this city next
Wednesday.
1t is the first time that the universal
postal union, now comprising and con-
trolling. SO far as the mails are con-
cerned, every organized government
save three-China, Korea and the
Orange Free State-has had its dele
gates assemble in America, and the de-
liberation of its fifth sextennial con-
yention will be marked by perhaps
more pronounced formality than has
attended any convention of either ma
tional or international scope that has
gathered In this country for q long
period.
Sixty odd countries and provinces
will be represented by about 120 dele
gates, each country having but a sim
gle vote The sessions will be held in
the historic old building which until
recently was the home of the Corcoran
art gallery. The delegates who will
form the congress are men of the
highest rank in postal service.
The postmasters general of several
nations are among them, while lead
ing diplomats have been sent by some
of the countries.
A portion Of the delegates already
are here. Those who remain in New
York will be brought over in special
train of four cars rendered by the
Pennsylvania railroad.
Second Assistant Postmaster Gener-
al Shallenberger and Superintendent
Of Foreign Mails Brooks are now in
New York and will accompany the
party to this city. The train will leave
Jersey City soon after | p. m.
IL is among the probabilities, based
on precedent, that the delegates will
be entertained by both the president
and the postmaster general, and the
district commissioners will, in case an
appropriation they desire is granted,
give an official reception and a water
trip, probably to Old Point Comfort
and Richmond.
The delegates, before the closing of
the congress, will also be taken on a
journey to the west, returning by way
Of New York.
The gathering will be in Washing
ton from a month to six weeks, but
the congress itself will meet not more
than half a dozen times. The real
work, save that of ratification Of pro-
ceedings when committees report
which belongs to the full congress
devolves upon the four committees.
