her way into this harbor yesterday
eleven days overdue from Portland.
The little vessel showed plainly the
marks of the storm. Her deck was
swept clean and her sails were in
tatters, but the hull withstood the
terrific pounding it received.
The Gold Hunter, with Captain Nc
Guire, his wife and one man for an
assistant, left Portland Nov. 10, with
general cargo for this port. No>.

gress, with clear weather until the
afternoon, when gale struck her and
carried away her sails. Two men
went aloft and rigged up foresail
and held it In place while the woman,
lashed to the wheel, steered the little
craft before the storm and was blown
ninety-eight miles to sea. For forty
eight hours they were without food,
being unable to go below to prepare
even a cup of coffee.

Washington, D. c.. Nov 27.-One
week hence the final session OF the
1fty-ninth congress will be doing bus
mess, and many of the members of
both branches are already gathered in
Washington in anticipation of the open
ing. AS a general thing the short
session is neither a busy nor an i'm
portant one, but the prevailing opin-
ion among the legislators Is that the
approaching session will brush aside
precedent and establish record for
the dispatch OF important business.
The president is expected to make a
number of new recommendations in
his message. which, with the large
amount Of leftover business and the
appropriation bills, will certainly keep
both the house and senate ION the
Jump to clear the decks before the
congress expires on the fourth of next
March.
The republicans feel that the
strength Of the administration has
been increased by the November elec-
tions, which means that the president
will push ahead determinedly with
the development of his executive and
legislative program. If the presi-
dents wishes are Needed congress will
keep its hands off the Cuban situation
and leave the administration free to
so ahead with its present plans for
the pacification of the island. 1t is
not thought that the coming session
will tackle the subject of corporations,
though this is one Of the leaders" in
the presidents program. Many of the
party leaders believe 1t wiser to let
such an important subject as the pres
ident's demand for federal license
law for all corporations doing an inter-
state business 60 over to the sixtieth
congress, which will have more time
to give to the subject. Though moth
ing authoritive is to be learned in re-
gard to the matter, 1t is rumored that
the president has been won over by his
advisers and will consent to withhold
his anti-corporation program for
year.
II the leftover business is dis
posed of and the appropriation bills
passed, the short session will have
good record for industry. The senate
will have more work than the house.
1t has before it some important treat
les, and it will have to decide what
shall be the final disposition of some
important legislation which went
through the house at the last session
and was temporarily pigeon-holed IN
senate committees.
The Santo Domingo treaty, which
has been pending for year and IA
half, the treaty cedinS the Isle of
Pines to Cuba. which Is strongly oppos-
ed by Senator Morgan, and the Moroc-
co treaty, are to come before the sen
ate.
The further restriction OF inlnisra-
ton, is one of the first questions of
country wide interest that will be
taken up. Adjournment last June left
the bill pending because the two
branches were unable to agree on
some of its provisions. The head tax
and the educational test are the two
points in dispute. 1t was said at the
Z time that the majority feared to take
# final action because of the effect ii
ii might have on the coming elections.
Now that the elections are over there
