JOHN A. PORTER DEAD.
Was Formerly Secretary to the Presi.
 dent-His Career.

Putnam, Conn.,, December 15.-John Addi- son Porter, former private secretary to President Mckinley, died today at his resi- dence. He had been sick for many weeks with a malignant intestinal disease. An op- eration which was performed nearly two months ago served to stay the progress of his malady but could not entirely arrest it.
 John Addison Porter was born in New Haven on April r, 1856. He was graduated from Yale University in 1878 E{e entered the field of journalism and in various capaci- ties he was connected with the New Ha- ven Palladium, the Hartford Courant, New York Observer, New York Tribune an the Hartford Post.
 MT. Porter was three times a candidate for Governor before Republican conven- tions in Connecticut, but failed of nomina- ton. Soon after MT. Mckinley was elected President he appointed MT. Porter his pri- vate secretary, and for three years he filled that office until his health gave way.

HOUSE PASSES THE WAR REVENUE BILL The Effort of the Opposition to Further Reduce the
 Tax Failed

Washington, Dec. 15.-The House to- day passed the war revenue reduction bill. The opposition sought to recom- init the bill with instructions to report back a measure reducing the revnue at least $70000,000 and including a provis. ion for an income tax so drawn as to escape an adverse decision of the Su- preme Court. The motion failed-131 to 155. Thereupon the bill was passed without the concurrence of the minor. ity, who refrained from voting. Ths amendment placed in the bill yesterday to tax express receipts was defeated on an aye and nay vote in the House 125 to 139. The pension appropriation bill, carrying $145, 5,145,230, was passed.
 Robert w. Wilcox, the delegate from Hawaii, was sworn in immediately after the approval of the journal in the House today. Many members came forward and congratulated Mr. Wilcox.
 MT. Underwood of Alabama moved to re- duce the amount of property exempt un- der the inheritance tax from $l0,0G to $5.- 900.
 The amendment was lost, 45 to S3.

M'KNIGHT WILL
 OPPOSE DRENNEN MegIemry Will Contest Seventh
 Ward With Altman
ENTRIES ARE NOW CLOSED
Announcements Change Political stua- ton and Will Precipitate a Fight Which Was Not Expected-A
 Complete List of Candidates.

Entries for the Democratic municipal handicap to be run on the 31st instant closed last night, and at the last mo- ment several new candidates were en. tered developing opposition to Mayor Drennen and Alderman Altman, who up to that time were unopposed for renom- ination.
 The new candidate for Mayor is All derman J. T. Mcknight of the Third ward, and Alderman Altman's opponent came forward in the person of c. E. Meglemry, station agent of the Union Passenger Station and one of the best known men in the city.
 The announcement of Alderman Mo- Knight for Mayor will cause stir in political circles, as it was. understood that Mayor Drennen would have no op- position for the nomination, and the an- nouncement may precipitate heated contest for that place on the ticket.
 It is stated that opposition to Alder man Altman had been expected for sev- eral days, but it was not until within one minute of the time set by the Ex- ecutive Committee for the entries to close that Mr. Meglemry entered the contest, and this means a hot fight in the Seventh ward.
 Acting Chairman Tom Baine of the committee of arrangements was in his office in the Lane and Terry building until o'clock, the hour set for the en. tries to close, and when he rang the bell the card showed the following candi- dates:
