makes the following report in regard to
the steamer wrecked last night on q

took fire at sea; that the captain there
upon tried to make land, and that the
vessel struck on the coast during the
storm. No hope ID entertained that the
lives OF any on board will be saved.
The marine officials say the wrecked
steamer 10 not an oil liner. The feeling

Argument Out of Print,

Washington, January 12.-Mr. Catch
ings of Mississippi was sworn in as a

for the appointment of a special com
mittee Of nine members to investigate

tional banks, and transactions relative

Before the reading of the resolution was
completed, Mr. Dalzell (Rep.) Of Penn
sylvania objected on the ground that
the resolution should go through in the
regular way.
Then ask unanimous consent" said
Mr.. Sulzer, "for its consideration"
II object" shouted Mr.. Hopkins Gre
publican) Of Illinois, and several other
Republicans.
Mr.. Grosvenor of Ohio moved that the
resolution be laid on the table.
1T is not before the house." observed
Mr.. Hopkins. "The able report of the
secretary of the treasury met all the
charges it contains"
Mr.. Richardson (Dem.), the minority
leader, as matter of privilege called
attention to what he claimed was an
infraction of the rules Of the house in
printing the shipping bill. Appended to
it was a partisan argument by ex-Sen-
ator Edmunds, which had no business
there, and which made it non-franka-
BILE document. He thought the whole
document should be suppressed.
Mr.. Payne of New York explained the
Edmunds agreement had been printed
by inadvertence

by unanimous consent that the bill
should be reprinted without the argu-
ment attached In the present print.

The Nicaragua Canal Bill.

Washington, Jan. 12.--The house
committee on inter state commerce to-
day reported favorabIy the Hepburn
Nicaragua canal bill.
The bill Is practically the same one
reported by this committee in the last
congress. There was some. discussion

ton on the bill until the isthmian canal
commission reported, but this was final

members except Fletcher Of Mississippi
voted to report the bill favorably. The
latter said his silence should not be
construed as opposition to the meas
ure, but merely as a reservation Of his

tackled the Garrison.
BUTLER MAKES A MOVE
It Is Supposed That He Acted Upon the
Approval Of the Oommander-in- Chief
In South Africa Who Has Reached
Cape Town.

London, January 12.-The war office
this morning received the following dis
patch from General Butler, dated al
Springfield, January II, at 9:20 in the
evening: II occupied the south bank
Of the Tugela river at Potgieter's drift
this fnorning and seized the bridge. The
river Is in flood. The enemy Is strongly
intrenched about four and a half miles
north.'
London, January 12.-Apart from the
definite news from General Butler that
he had attempted second trial to cross
the Tugela river, the only news is Il
list Of casualties among the British off,
GERS in the fight at Ladysmith Satur-
day, January 6, showing thirteen killed
and twenty seven wounded. Among
the latter was Lieut.. Col. William Hen
ry Dick Cunningham, V. c., command
er Of the I'd battalion of the Gordon
Highlanders since 1897, who has since
succumbed to his wounds.
Buffers movement, obviously, Is Of a
fianking character of attack but
whether intended to push the advanca
home. or whether the operations are
only feint to cover a frontal attack on
the Beers at Hlangwana mountain, re-
mains to be seen. Springfield, whence
Buffers dispatch was sent, Is sixteen
miles west Of Frere. The last news from
Springfield was that it was held by the
johannesburg corps under General Ben
Viljoen, and that the Beers had big
guns in position at Potgieters drift, ap-
parently six or eight miles north Of
Springfield, and across the Big Tugela.
The position of the drift and bridge is
regarded as of great Importance. 1t is
reported here that Butler submitted his
plan of campaign to Lord Roberts i'm
mediately after the latter landed, and
that General Roberts sanctioned it.
There is belief here that Gen. Hec-
tor Macdonald will succeed General Me-
thuen in command of the British forces
at the Modder river.
Berlin, January 12-The semi -off1cial
Nord Deutsche Gazette says: The gov

tlons to either belligerent.

The government report for 1899 placed
the yield Of wheat in Minnesota and
the Dakotas at 157,710,550 bushels In
comparison with the season. of 1899,
taking the reports of about 400 CORE
spondents of all classes, the present
years acreage shows scarcely any
change over the previous year at the
beginning of the season. The reports of
correspondents, of elevator men, of
farmers and experts, in no instance con-
cede more than half a crop for Min
kota are more positive. It is claimed
that half of the wheat acreage was to-
tally destroyed and that the remain
ing half was damaged SO per cent. South
