Problem of the Cents.
From the Chicago Tribune.

States minis &c, 1893, 100 bronze cents The
number was almost large enough to supply
every inhabitant with of these useful
coins. The minis turned out more cents
last year than ever before, but they have
not been inactive in preceding years Their
output in 1895 was thirty-eight millions, in
1895 thirty-nine millions, in 1897 fifty mil
cents which are in circulation seldom are
much worn. They disappear somehow be-
fore they have had time to get rubbed
smooth as nickels and silver coins do. What
becomes of the cents is as much mystery
as what becomes Of the pins. Millions Of
these small coins are minted yearly. and
yet there is a steady demand for more
Nobody boards cents. Nobody melts them
down-a fate which befalls gold coins Oft
en-. Then what becomes of all the bronze
cents?

The Attorney General is still engaged in

reason that the friends and counsel of Nc

which will take time. Representative Rich

A SHARP TILT OCCURS

Speaker Henderson, who has been con-

days called the House of Representatives
to order today. After some routine busi-
ness had been transacted the debate upon
the reapportionment bill was resumed.
Mr.. Dazell Pa) took the floor and de-
livered q speech of an hour in support of
the Hopkins bill. Mr.. Dalzell denied the
affirmation that under the rules this was an
efficient House; on the contrary, 1t was an
inefficient House The records showed it.
He argued at length in opposition to an
increase i'll the membership of the House
and produced records of its business to
demonstrate his declaration that the House
even at its present size is inefficient in adj
mniStrati0n.
Mr.. Bingham tPa.D expressed his cpp0si
tion to the Hopkins bill and his preference
inefficency in the administration of the
business of the House was due, in part. to
its size,
Mr.. tirOSvenor tOhiO) declared he would
vote for q smaller rather than larger
House. 1T the Burleigh bill became law

his consent. Mr.. Otey tVaD enlivened the
debate with characteristic speech. Mr.
Bell lcol) gave notice of an amendment he
would offer to the Hopkins bill to assign
an additional representative to Colorado
North Dakota and Florida.
After some further remarks in opposition
to the Hopkins bill by MIR. Gaines CTennD
and Mr.. Jones tVa.), Mr.. Hopkins closed
the general debate with a speech in which
