BECAUSE OF THE FAILURE OF
THE LAST LEGISLATURE TO PASS

to have avoided unnecessary waste OF

faction, or factions. we pledge our members in the
next legislature 10 reform the house rules

a daily calendar controlled by the majority OF the

Washington, Nov. 13-Tht representatives in this city o1 the Republics of Ecuador anG Catumbia were notified bA their governments this morn
 ing that Great Britain ane France had threatened them or the assumption that the two American republics were vio- lating their neutrality by furn- ishimg aid and information to nhe Germans. The notes from England and France had been couched in no uncertain ,erms, and thus a menace to the peace of the Western Continent has been devloped. The specific charges against the two repub- lies are that they have allowed the German vessels to rerit and take on fuel in their harbors.

DROPS HER WHEEL

Word was received in town Saturday evening of an acci- dent to the steamer Kingfisher of the New England Fish con- pany's fleet. It appears that shortly after the vessel had ar rived at the fishing grounds, and in smooth water, her tail shaft parted and she dropped her propeller rendering her helpldss. Fortunately the schooner Prospector of the same company was nearby and took her in tow to Yakulat, where she is now waiting the the arrival of vessel to low her south. The New En ngland will probably be sent north to low her down. The joke is rather on the Kingfisher which lowed the Prospector north, only in turn to be lowed to all anchorage by the same vessel.

FROM TUESDAYS DAILY

London, Nov. 17-Word comes from St. Petersburg that a note has been received there from Vienna asking if Russia would consider terms of peace with Austria alone independ- emily of Germany. An affirm- atory reply was given to the ncte, and the probabilities are that representatives of the diff ferent governments interested may get together shortly. This report lacks official confirm alton, but credence is given to it when the fact is borne in mind that Russia is advancing in tremendous numbers through Gallcla and her cavalry scout ing parties are said to be with in one hundred and fifty miles of Vienna. Germany, since the second invasion of East Prus- sia has withdrawn every pos sible man from the Austrian line and is concentrating them in the north to try to stem the Russian tide which is merci- lessly sweeping on towards Danzig and the coast.
