WILL BE AGAINST ROBERTS.

House. Committee About Ready to Re.
port on the Utah Mans Case.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-The report Of
the committee Of the house of represen-
t~atives, which is investigating the case
Of Mr.. Roberts of Utah, will be made
soon after congress reassembles and
there is reason TO believe that the ma
jority report will recommend that Rob-
erts be excluded from the house and
that he be not permitted under his Gre
dentials to exercise any prima facie
right Of being sworn in. Whether the
report will be unanimous is open to
doubt as three of the members of the
committee are not counted upon as
positively favorable to the course indi-
Gated and this may result in the SUBJ
mission Of a minority report. The mi
nority view, if submitted, probably will
deal with the prima facie right to be
sworn in on credentials, which are reg
ular, and will recommend that Roberts
be sworn in and thereafter expelled.

NOT ON THE TIME TABLE,.
The Curious Reason For which n
Train Was ide Tracked.


Train Was side Tracked.
III the rarefed atmosphere Of the
high tablelands of Mexico objects that
are really a long way Off appear to be
close at hand. This has led to many
ludicrous mistakes on the part Of tour
lists, and even on the part Of those hay
ing a knowledge Of the popularity Of
the, country.
The Mexican Central railroad has a
tangent (section Of track In which
there Is no curve) that Is said to be the
longest in the world. 1t Is over 60
miles in length, and n locomotive head
light can be seen, Of course for Il very
long distance.
One evening a train rounded the
curve approaching this tangent, and
as 1t entered on the straight track It's
brakes suddenly began to grind. 1t
soon came to Il standstill, and the con
ductor, fearing that an accident had
befallen the engine, hurried forward,
and was shown by the engineer n light
that was twinkling and dancing on the
track directly ahead.
"A headlight, sure" the engineer
said. Must be an extra and the dis.
patchers have overlooked 1t. for orders
do not mention it."
"Guess you are right" the conductor
replied, "but l never knew the dis
patchers to be so careless before. Any.
where but on this tangent there would
have been a collision and somebody
killed. We'd better move ahead slowly
to the next side track. We can't tell just
how near that train may be, and we
will wait for 1t to pass us there"
They reached the side track In safety.
and, drawing In on 1t, awaited the
coming Of the other train. Half an
hour passed, and the engineer was
fuming. wondering how much longer
he was to be delayed, when the con-
ductor called him to step II to the
main line.
"What do you think Of that head
light, now" he asked. when the engi.
had Joined him. "Seems to have
got clear up and Off the road"
The engineer gazed at the twinkllng
light. then. "Venus. by Jupiter" he ex.
claimed. "Billy, we've side tracked to

President Again Considers the Question
Of Rswsrding Sampson's Omosrs.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-The president
has again taken up the question of re.
warding the naval officers who particle
pated in the destruction Of Cervera's
feet of Santiago and his final conclu-
sions will be embodied shortly in rec
concentrations to congress, either in
the form of a renewal Of the advance
ment of Rear Admiral Sampson and
the officers under him by numbers,
with perhaps ON modifcations-the
scheme which the senate refused to
ratify last springer according to
some other method. Preliminary to a
decision upon his cours of action the
president and Secretary Long had a
consultation with eight Of the Santiago
captains at the White House.

Attack.

S~TERKsTRoEM, Cape Colony, Jan. s.
Morning.-The Beers attacked Moltena
this morning. A brisk action is now in
progress.
NAAUwPooRT, Cape Colony, Jan. g.
There was brisk fighting today in the
hills around Colesberg. The Beers
s%tubbornly resisted the British at every
point, but gradually retreated.
The British held their extreme posi-
ton to the south and east, overlooking
the town.
The hills around Colesberg are nu-
merous, not in ranges, but in groups,
making it very difficult to hunt the
Beers out.
Sixteen wounded have arrived ut
Arundel.
New YORK, Jan. "A dispatch to
The Tribune from London says: An
unexpected development of the situa-
ton has occurred at Colesberg. Late
advices are that the Beers returned
with achievements during the night
and occupied the position from which
they were driven by General French on
Monday.
There is a deepening sense of anxiety
respecting Ladysmith, whence most
disheartening reports of the prevalence
of sickness are received. General
White reported q list of nearly 20 deaths
Tuesday from enteric fever or dysentery
aud II serious cases in the hospital.
DR.. Jameson has all the work he can
do in that fever nest. 1t is evident that
the garrison cannot hold out long, and
that Sir Redvers Butler will not allow
many days to pass before striking a
blow. Transports with fresh battalions
and batteries have arrived at Durham
and within 4S hours Sir Redvers ought
to be in readiness for a supreme effort.

SUlzer in the House and Allen
in the Senate Have ResO-
lutiOns
Asking Secretary Gage for In.
formation as to His Recent
Action
In Depositing Funds in New
York Banks Financia Bill
Amendment.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-There wer(
prem onitions Of a storm when the hous.
r~eassembled after the holiday recess
Several members, including Mr.. Sulzel
(Dem., N. " were prepared to Offer
resolutions of inquiry into the course
Of Secretary Gage, in regard to the de-
post of public funds in the New Yorl
banks and to demand for them imme'
diate consideration.
The speaker immediately ruled that
the resolution, under the rules, must
go first to a committee, and wal moi
privileged.
IF the committee does not report il
back within n week, does it become
privilegedp" asked Mr.. Sulzer.
1T does" responded the speaker.
II now ask unanimous consent for
the consideration of the resolution
said Mr.. Sulzer.
"The resolution should first be con.
sidered by = committee" said Mr..
Payne, the floor leader Of the majority.
II object"
That ended the little furry, and at
1915 p. M, upon Nj. Payne's motion,
the house adjourned.
The Sulzer resolution relative to the
treasury department will probably be
reported back from the ways and
mea committee to the house 80
amended as to omit specific, reference
to two banks, and referring generally
to all banks. The committee will meet
prior to the session of the house to
adopt this course.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-The senate re-
sumed, it's sittings with a liberal at
tendance Of senators and with q small
flood of bills, resolutions and petitions.
The petitions related largely to the
question Of polygamy, while the bills
and resolutions covered a wide variety
OF subjects.
Senator Chandler offered an amend.
ment to the financial bill declaring it
the policy Of the United States to use
both gold and silver as money metals
and to work for an international agree
ment to that end.
Mr.. Allen presented a resolution call
ing upon the secretary Of the treasury
for all letters passing between the treas
ury department and the National City
Bank and the Hanover National Bank
of New York, and also all agreements
made between the treasury department
and those banks concerning the deposit
Of funds, etc.
This was in substance the resolution
introduced in the house by Mr.. Sulzer.
Mr.. Pettigrew offered a resolution
asking the war department to furnish
the senate with information us t o how
the hostllities began between the
United States forces and the Filipinos
at Manila. Its consideration was OBJ
jected to by several senators. Later
Mr.. Aldrich gave notice that he would
call up the financial bill Immediately
after the morning business. Mr.. Hoar
then entered u protest against what he
termed the attempt to throttle senators
in their efforts to obtain information
concerning .'tne deplorable conditions"
which have existed in the Philippines.

Victory Of Gener French Not So Great
as First Reported.
LONDON, Jan. 4.-The latest advices
from the { olesberg district tend to
modify the estimate of General French's
success. The predicted occupation of
Colesberg had not been accomplished
Tuesday evening, while the Beers guns,
announced to have been silenced, were
still active. The war Office has issued
q dispatch received from General
French under Tuesdays date saying his
position was the same as on the pre-
vious day; that with small reinforce
ments he could dislodge the Beers from
Colesberg, and in the meantime, he
continued m~aneuvering.
General Butler continues his night
bonn bardment and patrol surprises. As
the Tugela river is again fordable and
the stretcher bearers have again been
reQuisitioned at Durham, and PETER.
maritzburg. there is a disposition to be-
lieve that the British advance will not
be long delayed.
It is reported at Durham that the cap
tured German steamer Bundesrath had
on board 8 big guns, 50 tons of shells
and 1870 trained artillerymen.
Nothing further has been heard from
Molteno which was reported from
Sterkstroem to have been attacked by
the Beers. So far as known here, there
is only a small force there.
A dispatch from Sterkstroem an.
nounces that Swanelef, the Boer COM
mander at Stormberg, has died of his
wounds.
Suspected . Traitor Did 1t.
A special dispatch from Rensburg,
dated Tuesday, Jan. 2, says a supply
train, without a locomotive, was set In
motion within the British lines near
Colesberg and proceeded so near the
Boer position that it was impossible to
recover it, and the British guns there
fore destroyed the trucks. It is sus-
pected that this was the act Of q traitor.
The total British casualties about
Colesberg in two days were 6 men killed
and 20 wounded.
The supply train, says another dis
patch from Rensbnrg, ran into a broken
culvert and was wrecked. The Beers
began looting it, and another Rensburg
train vas dispatched to the scene in an
effort to recover the provisions. The
Beers opened fire on tho troops and ma
tives accompanying it, forcing the Sec
ond train to retreat after several of the
natives had been killed.
1t is reported that the particular SER
vice squadron now at Gibraltar will be
ordered to South Africa as soon as the
channel squadron returns to Gibraltar.
The particular service squadron Of
4 cruisers is said to be just suited to

A 200 PER CENT DIVIDEND.
Singer Sewing Machine Company Has the
Standard OIL Badly Beaten This Year.

othnuaru ol bauiy beaten This year.
New York, Dec. 21.-The Singer Sew
ing Machine Manufacturing company
is about to pay a dividend -four times
as big as the Standard Oil com my
paid this year. Mr.. Rockefeller's com
pany only paid AZ per cent. The Singer
company is going to award a 200 per
cent dividend to it's stockholders as a
Christmas present.
Next Monday the stockholders of the
will meet in Elizabeth, N. j.,
to ratify the action of the directors in
inCrea sing the stock of the company to
$50, oCS)00. This stock represents sole
earning capacity and business inter-
ests. Not one dollar OF the stock is to
be offered to the public. 1t is simply
to be divided among the stockholders
as a bonus.
The Singer Manufacturing company
distributed among it's stockholders in 1899
7. dividends representing 100 per cent, or
$l0,00o,O00, as the capital stock is only
that amount During 1900 it has thus
far paid only 8 per cent, which caused
some of the stockholders To grumble.
They didn't know, of course, what a great
surprise the directors had in store for
them.
But the most interesting part of che
new stock issue is that IL is Immediately
TO go on a 20 per cent dividend basis. In
other words, the company is going to pay
In 1901 60 per cent on $4,000, 900, or about
SIS, 600, 900.
The cause OF the %company's great pros.
perity is the growth of it's expor trade.
The American sewing machine is Just be.
ginning to be understood abroad and
thoroughly appreciated, Notwithstanding
that for many years every household In
the United States has possessed one Of
these labor-saving devices. Most of tn:
n~eedlework in foreign countries was dom
by hand until recently.
