THE MANHATTAN ELEVATED.


New York, Feb. 1.-At a meeting of
the board of directors of the Manhat-
tan Elevated railway, held to-day
President Gould was authorized to Sc
cure all information possible concerning
the best motive power with which to
equip the road. When he has decided
which is the best power as substitute
for steam he is to call a special meeting'
of the board and it will approve of his
selection. The board also unanimously
agreed to finance the securities for an
amount sufficient to adopt the new mo-
tive power.
Russell 5 age said tonight: "The board
gave President Gould the power to as
certain the best motor, electricity or
compressed air. The board did not de-
termine on any motive power. The tests
with electricity We're satisfactory as far
as they went, but we have testimony
from engineers that compressed air is
much more easily handled, less danger
Gus and cheaper. We will issue enough
stock to cover the expense of the equip
ping of the road with whatever power is
substituted for steam. The board was
unanimous in having the new stock is
sued to cover the Improvement taken by
the stockholders instead of being taken
by outside syndicates"

YOTE ON TREATY RESOLUTION.
Senate Came Very Near to taking ohe
Yesterday.

Washington. Feb. 1.-For few min
rites during the regular session OF the
senate this afternoon it seemed that
vote might be taken on one or more OF
the resolutions relating to expansion
that are pending before that body. An
unusually large attendance OF repupl-
cans were present, all OF them having
been notified to be present Mr.. Bacon
of Georgia had called up his resolution
and Mr.. Chandler of New Hampshire
had Withdrawn his motion to refer them
IN the committee on foreign relations.
Mr.. Sullivan of Mississippi had entered
motion to substitute his resolution for
those of Mr.. Bacon, while Mr.. Davis,
chairman of the foreign relations COM
mittee. had announced that he was will
ing that vote should be taken imme-
diately. AS it was evident that a vote
on the resolutions could not be taken
before 2 o'clock, the hour fixed by
unanimous consent for the senate to go
into executive session, Mr.. Bacon asked
for unanimous consent that vote be
taken at 1890 tomorrow. To this re-
cuest Mr.. Carter of Montana objected
and the whole question was left sus-
pended in the air. Mr.. RaWlins OF
Utah addressed the senate upon the
Vest anti-expansion resolution. In
closing he said the senator from Con-
necticut (Mr. Plato had twitted the
senator from Massachusetts (Mr. HoaD
with seeing constitutional obstacles,
lions in the pathway leading to the
House Beautiful. Would the senator
from Connecticut have us, like Samson
of old, destroy the lion at the gate in
order that we might enter in to wed
the daughter of the Philistine? 1t be-
hooves us to take warning by that ex-
ample, lest we, too, by such benevolent
assimilation" have our locks shorn and
the strength of our institutions taken
away.

QUAY SCORES A POINT.
McCarrell Jury Bill Passes Senate-Con-
demned by yAnti-Quayites.

Harrisburg, Pa, Feb. 1.-The McCar-
rell bill to prevent district attorneys
from standing aside jurors passed the
senate finally to-day by a vote of 2S to
II after a vigorous debate which had
occupied almost the entire session. All
but two democrats, Messrs. Boyd and
stiles, voted in the negative with the
anti-Quayites. Senator Henry of Phil
adelphia, speaking tonight for the
anti-Quayites, said: "The McCarrell
bill is purely in the interest of Senator
Quay, and it was to be expected that
those who are voting to return him to
the senate would favor its passage
Should this bill become law 1t Will
reyolutonize the trial of criminal cases
in our state. There Is little possibility
of its being enacted into law, as it
will surely meet defeat in the house or
representatives. The forcing of this ILL
considered and dangerous measure
through the senate shows to what ex-
treme measures Quay will resort in or
der to gain his ends" There was no
change to-day in the senatorial situa-
tion. Senator Quay was again the thir-
teen votes short of the number neces-
sary to elect

THE BROSIUS BANKING BILL.
A Favorable Committee RepOrt-TO In
crease the Circulntion


Washington, Feb. IA favorable re-
port on the Brosius bill, covering f1nan-
cial features in line with those recon-
mended in the presidents message,
was made to-day by Representative
Van Voorhis of Ohio, in behalf of the
committee on banking and currency.
AS to the provision allowing banks to
issue circulation up to the par value Of
bonds deposited instead of 80 per cent
of the bonds as at present, the report
states that the change would add to the
circulation S23,644,58 The report urges
that if this bill becomes law there
will be an increase in the amount OF
circulation issued when the demands Of
business require it and thus a distinct
benefit will come both to the banks and
to the community without in the
slightest degree endangering note hold
ers. Concerning the provision placing
the bank tax on capital surplus and
undivided profits, instead Of on circula-
ton as at present, the report says the
tax on capital will yield $2408,953 as
against $2111,2S9 on circulation. The
advantages of having national banks
established in small towns as provided
in the bill are also set forth

Rig FIRE IN COLUMBUS, O.
Estimated Loss of $3.50, O,OOO-Persons In
iurcd by Falling Wall.

Columbus o.; Feb. 1,-Fire broke out
tonight at o'clock in the wholesale
dry goods store Of Green, Joyce & Co.
The fire is not under control, although
it is thought there is no danger that the
blaze will spread to other blocks. Short
ly before IL o'clock well fell, catching
number of people in the alley. Thus
far fiye have been found who are Sc
riously injured. One man is thought
to have been killed.
Later-Although the fire is still burn
ing fercely, some estimate of the loss
has been formed and it is thought that
$750,O0O will cover it. If the building
now burning goes, the loss will go above
the million mark. Some of the losses
are: Chicago Clothing company, $780,
900 to stock; ID. S. Ambach, clothing,
$4,000; Selden e. Bright, wholesale mil
linery, 500, 900; losses on buildings, $780,

The Legality of Their Holding Conn
mands I'm the Army.
Washington, Feb. 1.-The judiciary
committee of the house held an import
ant meeting to-day to discuss the le-
gality of members Of congress holding
other offices while members. Although
the committee passed a resolution en-
derstood that the discussion. showed e.
disposition to extend the word "Off1ce"
ing army appointments but also those
serving on various commissions. 1t Is
status of General Wheeler or any other
individual member of the house.
The committee had before it the fol-
lowing statement from General Wheel
er: "Mr. Bailey and his friends are
trying to rest this question upon pre-
cedents. On July 21, 1851, Mr.. Vallan-
bingham raised a similar question with
regard to those members OF congress
who held commissions in the United
States army. The house refused to even
consider it and the motion to table his
resolution was carried by an aye and
nay vote, 80 votes being cast for tabel-
ing and 81 against it, many democrats
voting to table the resolution. The only
time that the house has ever acted
upon such a case since that time
was the case of Hon. Frank Blair, who
from August Z, 1862, to April 70, 1854,
was alternately doing duty as a gem
eral and performing duties as MEM
ber of the house On April %, after
actively doing his duties in the house
for some months, he left the house,
bade his friends good bye ana LOOK
command of an army corps IN Georgia.
This was regarded as abandoning ms
seat in the house and on June III
res olution was passed that he had for
feited his seat. No opposition whatever
was made to this by Mr.. Blair or any OF
his friends"
Later in the day it was understood
on the floor of the house that discus
sion in committee had developed prac-
tical unanimity against those members
of the house holding army commis-
sions and that the postponemnt was for
the purpose of considering whether
members on civil commissions appointed
by the president We're to be included.
1t has been practically decided that
members serving on the postal and in
dustrial commissions will not be dis
surbed.

tee has the bill to fix the standard of

the retirement of the greenbacks, on

the committee on rules to grant time
for it's consideration. The Indianapolis
monetary convention committee has
been urging similar action, and yester-
day all the republican friends Of curren-
cy reform were given a hearing in the
room Of the speaker, as a result of
which it was decided to call caucus
of the republicans to determine upon
a course of action. 1t may be that 9TH
er matters will be brought before the
caucus.

WANT AND MISERY IN CUBA
PRETAILING CONDITIONS IN COUN.
TRY OUTSIDE THE CITIES.
Hannis Taylor, ex-Minister to Spain,
Returns From n n'wO Weeks visit to
the Island and Says That Conditions
Cam Hardly be Explained The Pay
ment of the Cuban Army.

Mobile, Ala. Feb. 1.-Hannis Taylor,
ex-minister to Spain, who returned yes
terday from a two weeks visit to Cuba,
has given the Associated Press an i'm
portant interview on the Cuban situa-
tion. In part Mr.. Taylor said: while
in Cuba / came in contact with the
leaders of every faction. Upon one
point all agree--American officers and
Cubans--and that ois that outside OF
the cities, the country is in condition
of want and misery that can hardly be
explained. AS an aggravation of that
condition stands the Cuban army of at
least 10000 idle men, waiting for such
a settlement of their dues as will en-
able them to begin life again. Those
army said that ten or eleven million
dollars at least would be needed for a
would give about $500 to each man.
With that they said the small farmers
could procure stock and live until they
could make crop.
''The Cubans do not desire us to con-
tribute a penny for the payment of
their army. All they as is that loan
should be made for the purpose, charg-
ed upon their customs houses. Every
class there is demanding that a settle
ment be made at once so that a menac-
ing body of idle men may be converted
into peaceful producers. / cannot
if the just claims of the Cuban army
are treated with injustice and contempt
and the present military regime contln-
ued indefinitely in a short while we
would be hated by the Cubans Just as
the Spaniards were. The urgent need
in Cuba now is prompt and satisfac-
tory settlement with the army of the
revolution and establishment of pro-
visional civil regime in which Cubans
themselves can have a voice."

Work on TariffvtlIe Branch.

Winsted, Feb. 1.-THE Central New
England Railroad company formerly
the Philadelphia, Reading and New
England) has commenced work on the
Tariffville branch to Springfield, Mass,
and a gang of between sixty and sew
enty-five men are now at work. Last
Saturday large force was put to work
