WORK OF THE SENATE.

Washington, Feb. 14.-1n the senate to-
day routine business was brief. Imme-
diately after it was concluded, the f1nan-
cial bill was presented by the chair. 1t
was agreed that after o'clock today the
pending measure and amendments should
be considered under the ten minute rule.
Teller was recognized to reply to the
speech of Allison delivered yesterday.
Teller took strong issue with Allison who
claimed the United States was not on the
gold standard. He said, 1--WE are not on
the gold standard except by the unauthor-
lied action of the treasury. We are on
what is sometimes called lmping silver
standard and sometimes a nmping gold
standard"
Teller declared pending bill was to be
enacted into law because the gold stand
ard advocates were afraid the American
people would put some man IN the white
house who would not favor the gold
standard. the purpose being to embody
the gold standard into the statutes SO
that it could not be disturbed without
great difficulty.

THE CANAL WILL BE
OF GREAT BENEFIT
TO MEXICO ALSO.

City Of Mexico, Feb. 14.-The Mexican
papers are giving much attention to
American topics, especially the proposed
construction of the Nicaragua canal and
the Mormons. The latter subject is of
special interest on account Of the -four
ishing Mormon colonies IN the northern
part Of the republic. Ell TEMPO, the
clerical daily, censures the government
for liberal treatment of the Mormons,
saying that here all doors are thrown op: n
to them, lands freely given them and what
is thousand times worse, they are per-
mitted to open schools.
Taking wholly distinct view Of the
Americans and their ambitions, Ell Mum
di, the organ Of the liberal party, now in
power here, comments on the adoption Of
the Nicaragua canal project by the
American congress and says that Mex
leo, like all Latin-Amer.can countries
having territory on the Pacific. is bound
to be benefited by the canal. The fact
that the canal will enable us largely to
increase our exports of ore is sufficient
evidence that It viii be highly advantag-
eous to >us."

HOUSE PROCEEDINGS

Washington, Feb. 14.-The house today

ton bill. Before Mr.. Hemenway, who
was in charge of the bill, called 1T up re-
ports in the contested election case Of
Aldr.ch- Robbins from the Fourth Ala
bama district were submitted. The ma
jority reported in favor of the contestant
and the minority in favor of the sitting
member.
The democrats were disposed to insist
upon several days for general debate on
the legislative bill on the ground that not
sufficient time was to be allowed to de-
bate the Puerto Rican tariff bill, Efforts
to reach an agreement failed and the
house went into committee of the whole
with no arrangement about general de-
bate. Hemenway made general ex-
planation of the bill. Payne, floor leader
Of the majority, interrupted Hemenway
to announce that in view of the failure to
reach an agreement concerning debate on
the legislative bill, he would call up the
Puerto Rican bill Monday next.

ONE DISPATCH CAME
FROM BUTLER TODAY

Beers. General Butler is keeping his
own secrets, but we may look for an
other move on his part in day or two,
probably east of Colenso."
The Morning Posts war expert says:
THE announcement of new appoint-
ments confirms the supposition that a.
large force has now been assembled at
Modder river. The offensive cannot be
carried on along the whole line and the
commander-in-chiefm must determine the
point at which he will act It looks as
though the Beers had taken their forces
away from Magersfontein to reinforce
the commandos at Colesberg, where a
victory would threaten the British COM
munications between Capetown and Mod
der river"
The expert compares the situation to
the American civil war at the time when
the army OF the Potomac held all the
confederate forces in Virginia while the
western armies moved down the Missis-
sippi and through the heart Of the con-
federacy to Atlanta and Savannah and
thence north to General Lees rear.

Shafter Not to Retire.

New York, Feb. 14.-General W. r.
smarter, who has been on a visit to
friends in Connecticut. will attend re-
ception at the Army and Navy club to-
night, after which he will return at once
to San Francisco.
General Shafter denied that he had any
immediate intention OF retiring from the
army. He knew nothing of the report
that he would shortly appeal to congress
to be relieved. A recent statement that
he had been guilty of disobedience of
orders in ignoring Colonel Maus in ap-
pointing an inspector of the transport
Manuense, General Shafter declared was
false.
There have been some complaints Of
the transport Manuense," said General
Shafter, land some demand that the CON-
dition of the transport be investigated
1t will be investigated and believe that
the inspector has already been appointed
don't know who the appointee is, how
ever, as he is not appointed directly by
me. I have no intention of retiring for
some time to come.''
Asked for an expression of opinion on
the war in South Africa, General Shafter
said:
1.-THE recent achievements of the Amer
ican land and naval forces are in strik-
ing contrast with the repulses sustained
by the flower of their army in South
Africa"

Caused an Immense Amount
Of Damage.
A HEAVY FALL OF RAIN
Has Caused All the Streams to Become
Raging Torrents The EQuinoctial
Storms Are Now General Through
cut the World.

Boston, Feb. 14.--The gales Of the
equinox have scarcely ever exceeded in
force the storm which swept over New
England Tuesday leaving in it's wake
damage by flood that is almost incalcul-
able. For "a hours a heavy rain, af-
ter wiping away what few traces there
were of snow and ice, brought to climax
the most unreasonable winter New Eng
land has known for a great many years.
Tributary bodies of water which few
weeks ago were so low that the almost
unheard of drouth in winter was threat
ened, have been changed to torrents Of
more threatening volume than in the
usual spring freshets.
From drouth to flood, with all the dam
age done at both extremes to the manu-
facturers and ice harvesting interests, is
now added the price of replacing the
bridges swept away and in repairing rail-
way and highways being torn away. The
most damage reported is along the Merri-
mac and Connecticut rivers. The blow
was fierce along the coast, but shipping
had ample warning of the storm.
At Manchester, N. H., A. H. Jackson, a
mill hand, attempted to jump rivulet.
but fell into the water and was washed
away and drowned.
Washouts stopped traffic on the Boston
& Maine main line at Nashua and on 9TH
er smaller lines. Dispatches from war;
ious Stations Of Vermont and Maine place
the rainfall at over three inches.
The Connecticut river at Bellows Falls
rose nearly five feet during the day and
as most of the smaller streams are rum
ming wild, a further rise of six to eight
feet is looked for by noon tomorrow. In
the Champlain valley rain has lasted
nearly five days, so that the after ef-
fects are expected to be more serious than
now appears. At North Adams, Mass.
the Hooslck river is higher than for any
time for three years. several mills have
their lower floors flooded. The great pres
sure of water at the temporary dam Of
the Metropolitan water board at Clinton,
which supplies the Boston district, is so
great that the workmen are preparing for
emergencies.
Along the Kennebec river in Maine the
ice IS so weak that 1T is likely to break
up and with the ice go all prospects for a
harvest this season.
From all points come reports of heavy
damage to mill property and the destruc-
ton OF small bridges by ice jams.

UNEXPECTED SHOW
OF STRENGTH BY
B0ERS IS AMAZING.

New York, Feb. 14-The dispatches an
nOuncing the British retirement at
Rensberg are not satisfactory.
"Our losses are not yet known" says
the Daily Nails correspondent. "There
was hot fighting all day and at night the
British retreated."
This news is the more depressing to
London because only few days ago it
was believed General French was able
to take Colesberg. II the Beers are able
to defeat General Clements In a decisive
engagement. they may threaten Lord
Roberts base OF supplies at De Aar juno
tion. This unexpected show of strength
by the Beers at Colesberg has amazed
those who We're predicting an easy march
for Lord Roberts through the Free State.
The experts who saw in General Bull
ler's capture and abandonment of Vaal-
krantz, fine piece of strategy, say that
General Clements retreated to Rensberg
as part Of the same policy, to engage
large forces of Beers while Lord Roberts
demolishes Cronje.
It is believed that General Butler has
Withdrawn his whole force from Pot
gieter's drift and Springfield to Chieve-
ley and is exactly where he began two
months ago. The London Leaders war
expert says:
South African military opinion calls
for 10000 or $1,000 men as soon as possi-
bic. and this on the ground Of merciful-
ness and ultimate economy. This would

nouncing a reconnaissance at Springfield
resulting in no gain of ground on either
side. Captain Hamilton Russell, Lieut.
G. Churchill and ten more men were
wounded and Lieutenant Pilkington and
six men We're captured by the Beers.
The dispatch contains detailed accounts
Of what appear to be unimportant opera
tions. They only tend to throw light on
the situation by proving that the Beers
are actively following Buffers every
move.
From Lord Roberts at Modder river,
where all eyes are turned, there is no
word.
A dispatch from Mafeking says the gar
rison can Hold out until June.
Buffers dispatch from Chieveley dated
February 18th. says:
1.-THE commanding officer at Springfield
reports this morning that a squadron of
the first dragons, moving to the outpost
line covering the right flank, met party
OF Beers near Fustenberg. The Beers
reaching the crest of the hill first, opened
heavy fire on the squadron. which re-
tired without supports and then the
Beers retired"
The dispatch then gives the casualties
as already cabled. Continuing, the
Chieveley dispatch says:
"Dundonald, with 700 mounted men, a
field battery and first Royal Welsh fusil-
GERS, February II, reconnoitered high
ground which the enemy has been in the
habit of visiting. The enemy evacuated
it with a loss Of two men after slight
resistance. When the force retired on
completion Of the reconnaissance, the enc
my returned in considerable numbers
and kept up heavy rifle fire, wounding
Lieut.. G. Churchill of the South African

patch as Generals Lyttleton, Hildyard,
