vote was taken and Aldermen Reed and
Fleury stood alone in the affirmative.
| Before final votes were taken Messrs.
Mulhall and LeFurge were allow
ed to speak, each holding that the ordi-
nance would be hard upon drivers who
were obliged to leave their horses many
times day to do work on the streets or
to deliver goods. The former said that
there were very few runaways in Nor
ristown, but members of the board call
ed attention to several during the past
few weeks, Alderman Owens emphas
ing the point that one runaway usually
caused several.
Mayor Quayle complained that the
ordinance was not full enough. While
he believed steps should be taken to pre-
vent runaways, yet the first section
should be amended to cover certain cases,
as regulation of the distance a driver
might go from his horse, etc. On
motion of Alderman Fleury, made at
this point, the ordinance was laid over
for one month.
Alderman Hurting referred to the debt
of $4,000 which the city is forced to
carry from year to year according TO the
money needed, thus handicapping the
city in many branches of it's work, more
particularly in the improvement of the
streets. During the year several of the
streets which should have been i'm proved
had been neglected, particularly Wash
ington, Spring and Franklin streets.
The cost of these improvements and
other matters, he said So 800, was big in
terest on $4,000. Mr.. Hurting then
moved that the committee appointed on
chapter 30 of the laws of '97, be author

DOINGS OF CONGRESS.
THE SENATE DISCUSSES THE HA-
wAlIAN ANNEXATION TREATY.

Bill introduced For the Building of Four
Coast Defense AEonitors-The House
Completes the Consideration of the
Agricultural Appropriation Bill.
Washington, Jan. 1.-THE senate did
not make great progress with the Ha-
waiian annexation treaty yesterday.
Several speeches were delivered, but in
every instance the speakers announced
that their remarks were merely pre-
liminary to what they should say be-
fore the close of the debate. The exec
utive session opened with Senator
White on the floor, but Senator Stewart
interrupted and others cut the Califor-
MIA senator out of the discussion. Those
who spoke were Senators Stewart, Frye
and Morgan.
Senator Morgan introduced bill pro-
viding for the increase of the naval es>
tablishment by the construction of four
coast defense monitors of the class of
the Miantonomoh, Amphitrite, Monad-
mock and Terror The bill provides that
the vessels shall be fitted with the
pneumatic system similar to that in use
on the Terror, and $400, 900 is appropri-
ated to commence the construction of
the vessels.
Senator Mcmillan from the commit
tee on naval affairs, favorably report
ed bill for the construction on the
great lakes of gunboat to cost not
exceeding $3.50, 900, exclusive of arma-
ment, the vessel to take the place of
the gunboat Michigan, now on duty
on the lakes. The committee recon-
mends the passage of the bill, with the
distinct understanding that the substi-
tuition of the new vessel for the Michi-
gan raises no new question of interna-
tional bearing.
Senator Cannon of Utah presented
the following resolution, and it was
adopted:
Resolved, That the president is re-
quested, if in his opinion it is not in
compatible with the public interest to
transmit to the senate at his earliest
convenience a statement showing what
measures are in force by this govern
ment in the island of Cuba and in
waters contiguous thereto to protect
the lives. liberty and property of Amer
lean citizens now dwelling in Cuba"

ton of the agricultural appropriation
bill in the committee of the whole and
then adjourned upon the motion of
