As a reporter for the Register was
going UP Main street his attention was
attracted TO a large crowd near the
Suspension bridge. To ascertain the
cause of the excitement, he found them
admiring a window display of Utopian
Ware Going inside the store which.
by the way, is the Wedgwood. he found
the store stacked with ornamental
goods and tableware OF every descrip-
ton, varying in price from the very
cheapest glass to the finest china. OF
the many beautiful wares he saw none
to equal the Utopian. This ware is
made only in ornamental goods and
art vases, and is far superior to many
more expensive grades in design and
finish. The Wedgwood is the only
store in the city at which the Utopian
ware can be had.
The Wedgwood is located at 1908
Main street. next door to Kinks art
store.

IN ADEADLOCK
Senate Committee on Military
Affairs Unable to Make
a Report,
Senator Proctor'S Absence Makes
the Committee a Tie,
Practically.
Democrats Willing to Make Some
Concessions Which They
Outline.
Would Keep the Regular Army
at Its Present Footing Of
$4,000 Men.

WAsHINGToE, Feb. 16. The senate
committee OF military affairs has
reached deadlock on the military re-
organization bill. This is due to the
absence of Senator Proctor, who sholds
the balance Of power on the committee.
He is in Cuba and went away without
leaving authority to vote him .en the
bill. This leaves five Democrats and
five Republicans When an effort was
made at the forenoon session to secure a
favorable report on the bill, the Demo
Gratis objected and were able tGprevent
action. Amotion was then passed to
meet againsst o'clock in the afternoon,
when it was stated that the Democrats
would let the Republicans know what
they werewilling to do. The Democratic
members of the committee expect to
make proposal authorizing the main.
tenance of the regular army ON the basis
of the increase authorized for the wal
with Spain, for given time, and will
suggest an independent bill containing
this authorization. They willaalso agree
to grant authority to the president to
enlist aesettain number of natives in the
various newly acquired possessions.
They hold that if all the regiments are
filled outaas authorized under the pres.
ent law, the army would number about
$4,000 men, and they say this number is
suficientfor all purposes. Their object
is against providing for permanent in
crease of.the army, but they are not yet
agreed upon the limits of time for this
increase. They have heretofore put ii
at July L, 1900, but they now appear tc
extend this time.
