washington, Feb. 1.-THE information
al monetary conference bill. which vas
PASSED by the senate. has developed into
a more Important Issue than was expect
ca When the house committee on cS5n-
age TOOK charge OF the bill there was
thousnt TO be no doubt that II would t,e

DerS OF the COMMITTEES. All Of the repub-
means who have spoken on tho measure
oetore the committee have argued that
u would be an embarrassment to the in
coming administration. On the other
hand' republicans say that Senator Car
ter VINO has had an interview with this
presldent-elect, quotes Mckinley AZ ex-
pressing wish that the bill should pass.
The republican members Of the commit
tee have held conference on the mat
ter. which left their policy undecided.
Further hearing on the bill has been
postponed until Friday and Il IL now
doubtful whether q vote on reporting II
will be taken Saturday. as the committee
had intended. In the meantime many
communications protesting against any
further steps toward an international
conference on the ground that II would

IRSurgents' Successes, Spanish In
Justices, Make Life n Burden.
Havana, Feb. ia dispatch from Mon
ia Clara, under date Of February II. says
that force Of insurgents were camped
at San Gull. Z miles from that city under
the command of Generals Mayia Rodri-
guez and Chuco Montague. apparently
intending to continue their march to-
wards the vulta districts. in the same
province.
A dispatch from Consolation del Sur
adds that Pinar del Rio Is far from be-
ing paeified. Numerous bands of insur-
gents are said to be hidden in thick
woods, and on Monday last the lnsur-
gents derailed an exploring train from
Pinar del Rio between Los Palacios and
oaso Real.
Pinar del Rio reports that a small ak
petition from the Elsie. which landed at
Malata several days ago. was led by Man.
uel Maria Coronado. a correspondent Of
FL Liberal of Madrid and by the editor
Of La Discussion. 1t Is further stated
that Collaxo landed n band Of insurgents

WeyleF's Injustice.
According to the terms Of the second
edict Of General weyIer so families were
compelled to abandon their homes, burn
ing all their effects. including handsome
dwellings and large starch factory, and
reducing them to a state of poverty.
A dispatch from Jaruco says that En-
lilo Nunez has landed near there.
The bank bills question Is producing
serious differences among the proprietors
of exchange houses and the government
officials. Many of them have returned
their licenses to the government, and in
tend to close their business. The whole
matter has caused great excitement
among the people. especially the poor
classes. as the stores Of all descriptions
have in consequence Of the forced silver
bill currency raised the price OF all kinds
Of merchandise 10 per cent. This Is max
ing the people here desperate, and has
added greatly to the burdens they have
been bearing. The statement that every
body Is tired of the war has so frequent
~ been made that II Is almost useless
to repeat II. but recent DEVELOPMENTS
have intensified this feeling considerably
and there Is every evidence Of this on
all sides.
The feeling Of depression can not be
| dissipated by changes in the features of
the campaign. Everybody seems to be
anxious for the war to end one way or
| the other.

Boise. Idaho. Feb. 15.-In the house to-
day there was lively contest over the
proposed sheep legislation. All bills re-
ferring to the subject had been sent to
the live stock committee with instructions
to report substitute. This came In this
morning and II was found that II was n
copy OF measure alleged to have been
prepared by the sheepmen themselves,
embodying very few Of the provisions that
the anti-sheep members desire.
The bill raised a storm. After a long
and acrimonious debate, It was referred to
the committee of the whole with bill No.
GO. which Is the favorits measure Of those
desiring restrictive legislation.
Another interesting feature Of the pro-
ceedings In the house was q night over
the bin to prohibit gambling. Under the
present laws nearly all gambling games
are licensed. This measure proposes to
make them all unlawful. An effort was
made to have It indefinitely postponed.
but the motion secured only II votes.
