HOUSE HAS TOO
MANY RULES
STRIKING CONTRAST BETWEEN
METHODS OF THE SENATORS
AND REPRESENTATIVES,.

In two and a half months of sessions
the Senators have developed a free and
easy method of working that would
make the House stand aghast. They
have also developed habit of free ex-
change of left-handed compliments
and pointed pleasantries which would
cause a riot in the lower body. In a
single session of the upper house
yesterday there were enough personal
tiles, ignored points of order and un-
ceremoniousness to have kept the Rep
resentatives busy for days demanding
apologies, wrangling over rules and
points of order and investigating char
ges.
There are. few points of order in the
Senate but there is much work. The
members all buckle down together and
he who wants to keep up with the pro-
gress of the measure they are consid-
ering has no time for anything else.
The senators do not address one an
other as honorable members" and they
don't rise from their seats half the time
when they speak. Certainly they don't
mince words, but time is not lost by
calling members to order.
Senator Isenberg has been asleep
/ himself" remarked Baldwin vest arday
morning, land he thinks no one else
knows about the matter because he
don't" The senator from Maui made
this speech in reply to a statement
by Isenberg without looking up from
the bill under consideration. Senator
+ Isenberg, instead of making a point of
order or a question of privilege, made
a laughing reply which was lost in the
voice of President Crabbc, putting a
motion to adopt the item.
Isenberg and Baldwin frequently have
sharp tits, as McCandless and Achi,
and they all sit together. Isenberg
yesterday invited Baldwin to go and
fall through bridge. because the Maui
senator insisted that the bridge was
good and didn't need repairs. You'd
better go and fall through it once"
said the Honolulu senator.
Achi was accused of trying to sell a
well and his course with regard to the
! bill under consideration was termed
''cowardly" by McCandless yesterday,
but Achi only continued his scrap for
what he wanted. In the House such

STOCK MARKET DISCOURAGED
BY THE FINANCIAL OUTLOOK.
BREAK AT OPENING FOL-
LOWED BY SWIFT DECLINE.
Interior Demand for Money Upsets
Calculations of the New
York Spectators

New York. March 2L-The stock market
made no Roadway to-day against the dis
couragement Of holders of securities, and
was weak from start to finish, with only
q difference in the degree Of weakness from
time TO time. There was a sharp break in
prices al the opening. due to the unloading
Of stocks Ia blocks as a result of selling or
ders accumulated over night. After that
there vas some pause in the downward
movement had become very active again
snu prices ended the day at the lowest and
on a Rapidly descending scale. The princi-
pal cause Of the feeling Of discouragement
was the lack Of promise of an ameliora-
ton OF money conditions
DEMANDS MORE MONEY.
Apparently the interior is making renewed
demands upon New York for funds, now
that the attractive high money rates are
not fully maintained here. New York ex-
change a. Chicago has slipped back to par
bankers III New York express the opinion
that the West has its own uses for money
and Is lifeIy to continue to have. Very
due to tre delayed movement an active
speculation In the corn market and the
western Ian speculations are all cited as
spring renux @: funds to New York is not
so confidently held as It was, and the light
speculation based OH this hope is being
closed out.
TREASURY DRAIN.
The Subtreasury Is renewing its drain on
the money market and has taken from the
hanks since Friday 1898 900, compared with
$l28.0o0 in the corresponding period of last
week. The April settlements in England
are looked to to cause some demand upon
New York. BY shifting the view to for
eign centers no better prospect IS met the
impending demand upon foreign money
markets for Government loans promising
to absorb all their resources. The new low
record made to-day for British consols was
affected also by selling Of these securities
for American account. At the time of the
last issue Of consols It was urged in their
behalf by the American subscribers that
their holdings here would constitute a ready
means Of control Of the exchange market.
This would explain the drop in sterling ex-
change this week. compared with the
strength last week. A break in the copper
market helped to weaken Amalgamated. A
temporary advance of point In Southern
Pacific was attributed to a demand for cleo
ton purposes.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par

United States bonds were all unchanged
