HIS PROSPERITY GONE.
This Question Gravely Debated
in the House. :.
SILVER IN THE SENATE
Hot Work, After the Pension
Bill is Passed.

Washington, Jan. 25.-Under the parlia-
mentary fiction of discussing the Indian
appropriation bill, the house devoted al
most the entire day 10 political debate,
in which the main question whether pros
perity had come to the country as re-
suit OF the advent of the present admin
istration. AS speeches were limited to
five minutes each, many members partic-
ipated and partisan spirit kept the inter
est keyed up to a high pitch. The acri-
mony which usually characterizes such
debates was almost entirely absent, but,
although good-natured, some hard knocks
were given and received. Mr.. Smith. the
delegate from Arizona, made an attack
on the system of educating the Indians,
and Mr.. Walker moved to strike out the
appropriation for the Carlyle school. NO
vote was taken on the motion today.

Today's convention, which is much larg-
er than the first. was called for the pur-
its adoption.
Delegates arrived who were not previ-
ously announced, and the whole number
will probably reach 400, which is third
more than a year ago. Some of the east
ern boards of trade at first declined to
send delegates because they did not think
it was necessary. but the taking up of
Teller's resolution in the senate, for the
payment of bonds in silver caused strong
delegations to be sent, exceeding the limit
set by the executive committee. The
South was represented by delegates from
Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee. Missouri.
North Carolina, Virginia and several 9TH
er states. There appeared to be a strong
sentiment that the action Of the none
tary convention should he endorsed by
Republicans without qualifications. There
are differences over certain sections OF
the bill introduced by Representative
Overstreet, but most of the delegates de-
clare that currency reform is of such i'm
portance that united action can be secur-
ed on the bill before congress.

in sheets and the wind at times was ter
rife. When daylight came it was found
that a number Of Sheds oUthouses, chin

Up to O'Clock this morning communi-
cation with the whole country was good.
Then the wires, burdened with several
times their weight in ice and snow, taut-
ened by the cold and dashed by the wind,
began to snap under the unusual tension.
BY O'Clock nearly every circuit along
the Santa Fe and Union Pacific railroads
for miles out was broken. Two hours
later communication with almost the en-
tire west was cut off. At noon the con-
dition became more aggravated. Out OF
nearly dozen wires to St Louis and the
same number to Chicago, only one was
working between each of these cities. II
was impossible, however, to obtain any
news from the central west, the south
west or the northwest. Outgoing passen-
ger trains on many railroads were held
for gangs of linemen. Many trains left
the Union depot late, after waiting IN
vain for orders, and proceeded slowly
and cautiously. Tonight communication
west had been partially restored.
In Kansas City the damage was con-
lined to broken telephone poles, snapped
Telephone wires and more or less delay to

At Ell Reno, o. T., the wind was strong
enough to shake houses, topple over chin

residenc of William Phelps, farmer two
miles east of FL Reno, was demolished.
The family escaped with slight injuries.
A few miles distant another house was
blown down and the debris caught fire
and was consumed. No one was injured.
At Guthrie, O. T., hail storm prevail
ed and hundreds of panes of glass were
broken. Many people believed a tornado
was upon them and fed to their storm
cellars.
