minister of the interior and of justice

DR.. Herrara incurred the enmity of
the president ad interim of Uruguay,
Senior Cuestas, by calling on him in the
chamber of deputies to define the pro-
gramme he would follow in the event of
his success in the forthcoming presi-
Dental election. The demand was
made in speech severely arraigning
Senior Cuestas, and implying that the
latter intended to establish a dictator

MR.. HEPBURN'S VIEWS.

Believes Congress Should Not Attempt
Any Financial Legislation.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.-Mr. Hepburn
of Iowa is one of the Republican men,
beers of the house who is of the opinion
that it would be wisdom not to attempt
any financial legislation. The futility
of sending measure to the senate
makes it inexpedient for the house to
attempt to put through a measure and,
besides, he doubts the propriety of the
publicans of the house attempting to
make Republican policy on subject
upon which the Republican platform
does not speak to the point. Hessays if
the president should, as reported rec
ommend any scheme for the retire
ment of the greenbacks, it would be
beyond the Republican platform and
every Republican would be free to
support or oppose it as his Judgment in
dictated. There is some talk of a Re-
publican caucus On this question, many
of the members believing concerted
action could thus be secured"

that by the beginning of the next fiscal
year the Dingley tariff bill would afford
revenue sufficient to meet the legiti-
mate demands of the government.
