OAKLAND, CAL, Jan. 25.-Miss Winnie
comb, who resides at the residence of Mrs.
Rebecca Knox, WAS disturbed in her
slumbers early yesterday morning by a
burglar, who was inspecting the bureau
by the light OF candle. AS soon as she
saw the man, who had big, fat, red face,
she screamed. The candle went out i'm
mediateIy and nothing more was seen of
the thief.
From his methods the burglar evidently
knew something about the plunder he
was after. He had taken fatiron from
the gas stove in the dlning-room into the
lady's bedroom, and evidently became too
frightened to use it. The police have been
some time, and his depredations have
been reported from many quarters.

DINGLEY'S NEW BILL.
Hard Work Necessary to Have II
Ready in Time.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-Chairman
Dingley, of the ways and means COM
mittee, will not be able to report to
the house the new tariff bill, which
probably will bear his name, before the
beginning of the extra session Of con-
gress to be called for the 18th Of
March. There would have been little
to be gained by reporting the bill to
the house in this session, even If it was
possible, because it would have to be
re-intrCduced in theFifty-fifth congress,
but the Republican members of the
ways and means committee will not be
able to finish the bill before the close
of this congress. They have been work
ing every day for several weeks on
the bill, but member said today that
they would be obliged to work very
hard to finish their task by the begin
ming of the extra. session.
The past few days have been spent
by the tariff makers, principally in
shaping the language of those sched-
ules ofthe bill in which they have agreed
upon the rates. Several of the most
important features Of the bill are yet
practically unconsidered. These in
clude the wool, cotton and sugar sched-
uleS and the free list. The first Of these
promises to give the most trouble, be-
cause of the failure of the wool growers
and manufacturers to reach any agree
ment on rates. In order to complete
the BILL the Republican members of
the ways and means committee will
stay in Washington after congress ad-
journs and devote their time to the
work 1t is expected that as soon as
the extra session meets, Speaker Reed
who will undoubtedly be reelected,
will appoint the same members to the
ways and means committee who are
now serving, and the bill will be report
ed to the house.

No. 9-The Olympic forest reserve occupies
the high and broken Olympic mountain region
in Northwestern Washington, and contains an
estimated area Of 2,1SO,SO0 acres. This pro-
posed reserve no doubt contains for It's area
the largest and most valuable body of timber
belonging to the nation.
No. 10-The Mt. Rainier forest reserve was
originally established by executive order of
Feb. 20, 1S93 as the Pacific forest reserve
The proclamation extends the reserve south
ward along the two slopes of the Cascade
mountains nearly to the Columbia river, and
changes the name from the Pacific to the
MT. Ranier forest reserve. The proposed
extension makes the total area of the Mt.
Rainier reserve z, ,234, $50 acres.
No. 1.-THE tanislaus reserve extends north
along the slopes Of the Sierra Nevada noun
tains in California, and embraces an area of
691, 200 acres.
No. 12-The San Jacinto forest reserve en-
braces the San Jacinto mountains in Southern
california, and is separated from the existing
San Bernardino forest reserve by the San
Georgonio pass. Estimated area, 751,2SO acres
No. 13-The Uintah forest reserve embraces
both slopes of the eastern part of the Uintah
mountain range in Northern Utah and the
northern slope only Of the western part of
this range, the southern slope being part Of
the Uintah Indian reservation.
The report of the commission con-
cludes with the statement that it full
ly recognized the fact that the forest
reserves established and proposed can
not be maintained unless a play can be
adopted under which their boundaries
can be modified SO as to take from
them all lands better suited for agri-
culture than for the production OF
forests, and under which their timber
can be made available for domestic
and commercial purposes and valuable
minerals can be freely sought for and
mined within their boundaries The
commission is now engaged in perfect
ing a scheme of forest management
which it believes will make the ad-
ministration of the reserves possible.
Secretary Francis says: "The deep
and growing interest in the preserva-
ton Of our forests will make the act OF
President Cleveland very popular with
all except those who have selfish de-
signs on the forests. The timber
growth in most or many Of the older
states has been ruthlessly laid waste;
in some sections the settlers are real

Here also the consuls were fired upon.
The insurgents have rehoisted their

though it looks doubtful at present.

that Greece has declared that If the

she will break off diplomatic relations

Assfm Bey, the Turkish minister at

break off her relations unless the Greel,
troops are withdrawn from Crete.
1t is stated here that the powers
