Washington, February 1.-THE Inter
national Monetary Conference Bill.
which has been passed by the senate,
has developed into a more important
ISSUE than was expected. When the
house committee ON coinage took charge
OF the bill there was thought to be no
doubt thai II would be reported favor
ably. but opposition to the bill has been
growing steadily until 1t seems proba-
BILE that. II reported. the action will be
taken against the wishes of a majority
of the republican members of the conf
mittee All republicans who have spo-
ken ON THIS measure before the COM
mittee have argued that II would be an
embarrassing thing to the coming ad-
ministration. On the other hand repub-
licans say that Carter, of Montana
who has had an interview with the
president -elect, quotes Mr. Mckinley as
expressing a wish that the bill should
pass. Further hearing on the bill has
been postponed until Friday and ii
is now doubtful whether the vote on
reporting 1t will be taken Saturday as
the committee had intended, In the
meantime many communications pro-
testing against any further steps to-
ward international conference, on the
ground that 1t would tend to disturb
business. are being received from bus
mess men.

4 man, apparently temporarily in- sane, created nearly ss much excite ment on the streets today as the jail escape did on Sunday. He un- hitched Sam Hills horse, attached to his delivery wagon, from the hitching post, jumped into the wa gon and started of down the street at a break neck speed, followed by quite a crowd. He drove around for a block or two, when he stopped, laid down on his back in the street and commenced to yell. A man coming up near him, he jumped up, got into the wagon and drove of again. Don Coots and Ben De Lanty jumped into the wagon from behind. pinioned his arms, and held him while he was driven to the city iail. Prior to the mans taking Sam Hills wagon, he entered J. l.. Fish er's store, and in addition to his other clothing, had an overcoat on and sheet thrown over 1t. His name is Ike Skillen. He IS a very temperate, quiet man and his tenn porary alteration of mind IS sup posed to be due to illness, as he has been sick for several days.
