Cluny knew nothing which could allay

asked Mrs. Swaffham; "are they not
afraid?"
They are concerned and anxious,
but not fearful. Indeed, the old Lady
Cromwell astonished me beyond words.
She smiled at the panic in the city,
and said 1t is the beginning of tri-
umph. l have seen, l have heard.
Rest on my assurance, and until tri-

The only rational way to cure dys.

Peruna cures catarrh. Peruna does

This is vastly better and safer than re.

MORE DEBATE ON
OMNIBUS BILL
Outcome Is Still a Matter of
Grave Doubt.
SENATORS ARE RESTLESS
HOUSE WILL POUND OUT THE
APPROPRIATION BILLS.

Washington, Feb. S.-All indications
point to the conclusion of the debate
on the statehood bill during the pres
ent week, but no one can tell at this
time just when in the week the change
Will come, or how it viii come. If the
plans of the Republican leaders who
oppose the statehood bill are put into
effect, the committee on territories will
bring in a substitute bill early in the
week providing for consolidation and
the admission of two states. This viii
probably not be done, however, unless
assurance can be secured that the full
Republican vote can be secured for the
consolidation. If this plan does not
take shape, Senator Quay is likely to
press his statehood amendment on the
agricultural appropriation bill. and a
test of strength would ensue. The
vote on this amendment will be very
close if taken, and while the omnibus
bill advocates feel that they have a
majority, they realize that il viii not
be so large as it would be on a direct
vote on the statehood bill alone and
by itself. There is now some talk of
admitting only Oklahoma, but if this
should be undertaken it will be only
as a last resort, and will be post
poned until toward the end of the
session. All senators are becoming
very restless under the present Condi-
tions, and it is evident that they can
not long continue.
Tomorrow, in accordance with notice
given by Senator Allison, the bill max
ing appropriations for the District Of
Columbia will be taken up. Some pOr-
tons of this bill will arouse debate, but
advantage win be taken of the oppor-
tunity to further the efforts to COM
promise the differences on the state
hood bill. An effort will also be
made during the week to secure
consideration of the Cuban reciprocity
treaty. A portion of the time next
Saturday viii be devoted to eulogics
on the lives of deceased members of
the house.

but if other things press the leaders
may decide not to give up the day to
this class of business.
The session is so far advanced that
minor matters have to give way for
the supply budgets and other impera-

rency bill are still insistent on time
for consideration of their bill, but the
chances for it are growing more slim,
aud unless time is given this week it is
difficult to figure how it will be pos
sible to give it any time.
