cure these changes before the vote is
taken. 1t is believed the bill will pass af-
ter day or two's talk upon it.
1t is probable that after the Alaskan bill
is disposed of some of the bills of less gen.
eral Importance on the calendar will be
considered. One of these is the bill for the
payment of the claim of the book agents
of the Southern Methodist church for prop
erty destroyed at Nashville during the
civil war. This bill appropriates $2SS, 900,
and has aroused some opposition. 1t IS
also understood to be Senator Davis in
tention to again move the consideration of
the Hawaiian treaty If opportunity offers,
but there is no disposition at present to
unduly press the treaty in antagonism to
other measures.
tions for the District of Columbia will be
reported by the committee on appropria-
tions during the week. There are only five
of the appropriation bills to be considered
by the senate, which is a record far in ad-
vance usually made at this date in long
sessions of congress. This fact is causing
senators to begin to talk aborS final ad-
journment at far earlier date than usual.
Three of the bills which are as yet un-
considered are the District of Columbia,
the naval and sundry civil bills. These are
all important measures and each is liable
to arouse debate, but senators generally
agree that unless there is some other rea-
sons for postponing adjournment it can
be reached by May or June. The friends of
the Hawaiian treaty say, however, that
some of the appropriation bills will be
held until the question of annexation is
decided upon and this determination Is
one of the circumstances which may cause
the postponement of adjournment.

posed to the royal family, are unanimous
in expressions of Indignation.
There is no trace of the miscreants. though
several arrests have been made with the
object Of obtaining information. The
incapacity Of the police is making bad
impression.
King George himself describes the at
tempt upon his life exactly as 1t was first
reported. He saws: when the older man
who was the cooler and more determined
one, was about to fire. Ifelt certain should
not escape. counted one. two. three, be-

he feel any alarm for the future.

NEW YORK, Feb. 27.-The Lapland REIN
deer for the Yukon expedition for the gov

steamer Manitoban, twenty-four days
from Bozekop, Arctic Lapland
The expedition is in charge of DR.. Shell
don Jackson, who introduced the first do
mestic reindeer in Alaska and now. under
the auspices of the general government
is placing there the first colony of Lap
landers.
The Manitoban brings a unique cargo,
consisting of 1873 immigrants, 537 reindeer,
AIS reindeer sleds, 511 sets of reindeer har-
ness and between 5000 and 1000 bags of moss
for feeding the reindeer en- route. The i'm
migrants consist of 43 Laps, 10 Firms and
10 Norwegian reindeer herders and drivers
and their families, making a party of 6S
men. 1876 women and 26 children.
Among them are six bridal couples, who
were married a few days before the sailing
of the steamer. Only one deer was lost
on the journey of 1000 miles from Lapland.
The government has contract with the
Pennsylvania railroad to transport the
deer to Seattle. The contract calls for de-
livery in Seattle in 80 hours.
From Seattle the outfit will be forwarded
to Skaguay and Dawson City and thence
distributed to the government relief sta
tions. The cost of the herd purchased by
DR.. Jackson is believed to have been about
$50, 900.
