ON THE JETTY CONTRACT.
A CONCESSION AND SOME VIEWS OF
CONGRESSMEN.
A Trip for Recreation With Incidental Work
for a friend—Important Item to
Gome Up To-Morrow.
Washington, Jan. 20.—-[Special.]—General
Casey, the chief of tho engineers, has told
Major Allen, the engineer in charge of tho
harbor improvements at Galveston, that he is
empowered to interpret the contract with the
contractors so as to allow them the use of
barges to doposit the rock in the jetties. This
is one of tho concessions asked by tho con-
tractors. It is understood here that hereto-
fore the contractors have been forced to put
the rock off the end of the car. This conces-
sion to tho contractors means, as understood
here, a more rapid carrying on with the
work.
With the congressmen who have been work-
ing for appropriations for this work it is un-
derstood hero that there are impositions ou
this work, growing out of red tape moro than
anything else, that has retarded its progress.
Nobody wants tho work done in a slovenly
manner or in a manner not up to the best
work, but at the same time it is understood by
the congressmen who, after all, have control
of the whip handle, that there is a good deal
of war conduct in this business that is hardly
in keeping with peaco conditions. Tho chief
engineer "suggests" a kind of amelioration.
Hon. Henry McDonald of Paris is hore.
Ho represents himself as being on a kind of
jaunt to the capitol traveling for recreation
and amusement, but it is understood 011 the
outside that ho is advocating tho ambition of
a gentleman by the name of Mr. Shob Wil-
liams for the marshalship of the Eastern dis-
trict of Texas. This is an incidental mission
of Mr. McDonald.
Mr. Williams, from what I can learn, was a
strong follower of Mr. Clark, and this being
the case, he is on a cold trail; for, as I have
stated heretofore, the Clark men for such
positions as ho seeks, have but little chance.
Mr. Mills has not expressed himself. He will
riot perhaps antagonize Senator Coke, and Sen-
ator Coke looks on tho Ilogg organization as
the only democratic crowd in Texas.
To-morrow tho item in the sundry bill which
pertains to Galveston will come up. Mr.
Sayors tella mo that he. expects a tight all
along the lino against the river and harbor
features of the bill. But he does not think
that the opposition can defeat these items.
In my opinion the million for Galveston
harbor will pass.
Kansas Senatorshlp.
Washington, Jan. 26.—There is a diversity
of opinion, not only among senators, but
among members of the committee on priv-
ileges and elections as to tho exact standing of
Mr. Martin of Kansas, tho accredited senator-
elect from that state to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of Plumb, now temporarily
filled by Perkins by appointment of the gov-
ernor.
The appearance of Martin at the senate
chamber bearing the certificate of the gov-
ernor may be looked for any day and may
precipitate a prolonged and bitter election
contest similar to those some years ago.
The fact that every vote in tho senate will
be contested by tho domocrats in the further-
ance of their intention to, if possible, organ-
ize the next senate, gives the case of Martin
immediate importance. It has escaped the
mind of some members of the committee
that the Kansas election was to fill a
vacancy caused by the death of Plumb, whose
term of office did not expire until March 4,
1895, and that Mr. Perkins, the present in-
cumbent, Is only serving until the legislature
should meet in regular session and choose a
successor. Soon as that successor is regularly
and legitimately elected Mr. Perkins ceases to
be United States senator.
Under tho peculiar conditions existing in
Kansas the probable action of the senate be-
comes an interesting matter for conjec-
ture. The quostion is now being asked,
will the senate recognize a certifi-
cate issued by the governor of a state
in which two legislatures are contesting for
recognition and both claiming to have been
legally organized? It is at this point that
even members of tho committee disagree and
fail to interpret precedents alike.
Under the view of the case which is believed
is held by a majority of the committee, the
credentials of Martin will be sent to the com-
mittee on privileges and elections and remain
there until mooted questions are disposed of.
In the meantime Mr. Perkins will hold the
seat to which he was appointed until his »uo-
cessor is elected and qualified.
Perkins is not, from all accounts, disposed
to forego his seat in the senate without a
struggle, and will not cease resistance to the
judgment of ouster until ho and tho republi-
can members of the senato are satisfied that
tho credentials of the senator from Kansas are
good, and that he was chosen by a body duly
organized.
Pension List Revision.
Washington, Jan. 26.—[Special.]—The Star
has this gossip regarding the proposed redu<«
tion in the pension list: Recent developments
have aroused a great deal of interest in the
pension question, as there is a growing con-
viction that its agitation is goiug to
be one of the most prominent feat-
ures of the now administration. Mr. Cleve-
land has already made a record on his pension
vetoes, which appears not to have hurt him
much in the last campaign. It is understood
that he now hopes to effect a complete reform
in the methods of granting ponsions and to
purge tho pension roll during tho course of his
administration of pensioners who are carried
improperly and to cut down excessive pen-
sions. In this connection a great deal of dis-
cussion was provoked at the oapitol to-day by
the speech of
bx-secbetaby faibchild at richmond
last evening, in which he told the southern
democrats that they need not stand back and
bo afraid to doal with the pension quostion as
it Bhould be dealt with. There is no doubt
felt among democrats that Cleveland in-
tends to handle the quostion with*
out gloves, with the purpose to re!
duce the annual payment for pensions as low
as possible. The talk of transferring the
pension office to the war department is said to
grow out of tho expectation that Colonel
Lamont will bo at the head of that depart-
ment and that in the event of the transfer lie
will make the revision of the pension list and
reform of tho methods tho conspicuous work
of his administration of the office. Confronted
with an
expenditure fob pensions
rapidly approaching $200,000,000 a year and
at the same timo threatened with a deficiency
in the treasury at the time when the party is
pledged to a considerable reduction of the
customs duties, the democrats feel that some-
thing must bo done to reduce tho
great dram upon tho treasury, and
they regard tho ponsion expenditure
as the best possible opportunity for retrench-
ment. The proposition to transfer to tho war
department to create a commission to ex-
amine the roll and the legislation in tho pen-
sion bill dosignod to exclude from tho priv-
ileges of pension certain classes now enabled
to draw thorn are all a part of the geuoral
policy which is about to be inaugurated.
Amomleri Panama Inquiry.
Washington, Jan. 26.—The democratic ma-
jority of tho committee ou rules havo decided
to report back the Fellows resolution provid-
ing for an investigation of the Panama rail-
way and canal matter with an amend-
ment limiting the inquiry to tho ef-
fect that recent operations havo had on
American commorco and providing for exam-
ination of traffic agroomonts made between the
Pacific Mail steamship company and trans-
continental railroads and their bearing upon
the steamship subsidy act.
For Lamar's Place.
Washington, Jan. 26.—It can be stated on
what is considered good authority that Presi-
dent Harrison has made up his mind to nomi-
nate a successor to tho late Justice Lamar. In
order to make the fight which the democratic
senators are expectod to wago over the con-
firmation of tho nominee as pointless as pos-
sible, the president will name some man to
whom the appointment will be in the nature
of a well-deserved promotion. Judge Pardee
is moat prominently mentioned.
Violating the Neutrality Law.
Washington, Jan. 20.—The war department
this afternoon received a dispatch from Gen-
eral Wheaton, commanding the department
of Texas, stating that the Mexican government
had instituted proceedings for extradition of
three bandit leaders arrested by the United
States troops on a chargo of violating tho
neutrality law. The dispatch was sent to tho
secretary of state, who will co-operate with
the Mexican government in securing speedy
action in the cases.
A Direct Ouestion.
Washington, Jan. 26.—Mr. Hopkins of
Pennsylvania introduced in the house to-day
a resolution directing the attorney general to
inform that body why the persons originating
and controlling the American sugar refining
company or sugar trust should not bo pro-
ceeded against as other persons charged with
crime.
Vessel Owners' Liability Bill.
Washington. Jan. 26.—The senate commit-
tee on commorco gavo a hearing this morning
to the advocates and opponents of Harter's
bill relating to contracts of common carriers
on the ocean, which is intonded to prevent the
inclusion in bills of lading of agreements re-
lieving vessel owners of liability for indem-
nity.
The Hrewers' Own.
Washington, Jan. 26.—A resolution has
been introduced in the house by Mr. Fitch of
New York, amending the statutes so as to pro-
vide that no brewer shall be held liable for
payment of tax for beor furnished to em-
ployes of his brewery free of cost and con-
sumed by them on tho promises.
General Government Appropriation.
Washington, Jan. 26.—The legislative, ex-
ecutive and judicial appropriation bill for the
fiscal year 1894, as reported to the house to-
day, makos an aggregate appropriation of
$21,677,998, being $222,184 less than tho amount
carried by tho bill for the current fiscal yeat
and $947,817 less than estimated.
Postofllce Appropriation Bill.
Washington, Jan. 26.—Tho house committee
on postoffices and postroadsha3 completed tho
postoffice appropriation bill for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1894. Tho bill as agreed upon
carries an appropriation of $83,809,857, an in-
crease of $3,538,081 over the appropriation for
the current fiscal year.
Th© Silver Question Two Days.
Washington, Jan. 26.—By mutual agree-
ment between the free ailvor and anti-silver
domocrats there will be consideration in the
house on the 9th and 10th of February of the
silver question with tho Androw-Cate banking
and Sherman bullion repeal bill as tho basis
of consideration.
FIFTY-SECOND CONGRESS.
Senato.
Washington, Jan. 26.—There were not
many senators in tho chamber to-day during
the debate on the anti-option bill, but those
present witnessed the remarkable circum-
stance of a state rights democrat, Mr. Mills
of Texas, having his argument against the
constitutionality of tho bill sustained by a
stalwart republican, Mr. Hiscock of New
York. Mr. Miils declared his belief that a
sentiment in favor of looal selfgovernment
prevailed from New England to the Pacific
ocean, and Mr. Hiscock assorted that there
had been rarely presented to congress a meas-
ure in which less regard had been paid than
was paid in tho pending measuro either to the
proprieties of legislation or constitutional re-
strictions.
An effort to pass tho bill creating a commis-
sion on the alcoholic liquor traffic failed, the
morning hour expiring without aotion on the
alcoholic traffic bill.
After considerable attention to minor rou-
tine matters, including a resolution referred
to tho finance committee, instructing that
committee to inquiro into the existence and
purposes of the whisky trust, tho anti-option
bill was taken up, and Mr. Mills of Texas
mado a speech against tho bill as being aimed
against the existence of the state governments.
He thought the republican statesmen mistaken
in regard to the state rights sontimont of the
people. The people of tho United States
loved local self government. They clung to
it with an instinct which told them that their
liberties depended upon its preservation. He
(Mills) would not hesitate to stand before auy
audience in the union, from the rock bound
coast of Maine across to the Pacific ocean
and down to the south and vindicate the right
of every state in tho union to the government
of its own people in its own way, and he would
do it with the approval of his audience. The
general government had no right to suppress
immorality in the states. If it had then
it had a right to establish immorality in
the states, it had no right to punish mur-
derers in a state. If it had then it had a right
to go into a 6tate and turn murderers loose.
If by an India rubber system of construction
of the constitution congress had a right to
regulate commerce in the states—as proposed
in the pending measure—it could go farthor
and regulate the production of specified art-
icles.
Passing from the constitutional argumont
Mr. Mills declared he would not support the
bill becauso it was not a regulation of com-
merce and because it could not affect the
price of cotton, wheat, corn, or any other
agricultural product. Future sales, ho de-
clared, were part of the business system of
the country. There was not a senator who
could go to his stato and face his constituents
after voting to mako all future sales of agri-
cultural products illegal. No senator who had

done so could stand up before the storm of
indignation which ho would provoke. The
military commandant of a post could not bo
cxpectod to go out every morning and buy tho
corn wantod for 1000 horses. Contracts for
a supply of corn had to bo mado ovon before
tho corn was planted or tho land ploughed.
Everyone would admit that a system of fu-
ture sales was absolutely necosnary and essen-
tiai to tho facility of commercial transactions.
Tho system was simply a utilization and capi-
talization of credit.
Mr. Hiscock opposod tho bill on similar
grounds. Adjourned.
House.
Washington, Jan. 26.—In tho houso to-day
tho sundry civil bill was grantod right of way,
and while a few obstructions wore placed on
the track none of them proved disastrous and
the bill mado fair progress.
• Mr. Dockory reported from tho committee
on appropriations tho legislative, executive
and judicial appropriation bill. Placed on tho
calendar.
In opposing tho amendment to tho sundry
civil bill Mr. Dockory criticised tho recent re-
port of tho secretary of the treasury estimat-
ing the surplus on June 30, 1893 at $20,992,377.
If there was charged agaiust tho treasury $11,-
307,825 sinking fund default for the fiscal
year 1892 the confessed delinquency of $10,893,-
802 on the same account for the current fiscal
year, and $19,703,473 25 duo tho national bank
redemption funds Julyl noxt, the apparent
surplus gavo place to a deficit of $50,972,784.
After further consideration of the sundry
civil bill without any incident of note, tho
house adjourned.
PIRE RE00RD.
Houston Ice Factory Burned.
Houston, Tex., Jan. 26.—To-night about 11
o'clock an alarm of fire camo in from district
52, and tho department responded, but was
somewhat delayed iu reaching tho firo, which
proved to be the ice factory of Zilker & Mc-
Graw, located on the north bank of Buffalo
bayou, just above the Bayou City compress.
It was the same building that onco was
tho grain elevator. It was a very large
frame structure and soon after the fire
broke out the flames reached heavenward un-
til tho glare indicated that that part of
tho city was all afire. The theator
and other places of amusement had
just turned out and hundreds of people
rushed in that direction. The firo broke out
in tho conter of tho building and spread too
rapidly to bo checked by firemen and a
weak water pressure. The ice plant
had not recently been in oporation, but was
being fixed up for summer business, and
hence the belief that it was the work of an in-
cendiary. The structure was a large frame,
two-story building, with a great deal moro
room than was absolutely necessary for mak-
ing ice. Tho loss of Mr. McGraw is estimated
at $45,000. The insurance is nearly $20,000.
Persons who first reached tho firo say they
saw three people leaving the burning struc-
ture and henco tho statement that it was in-
cendiary. It is said thero was a fire in tho
blacksmith's forgo to-day but it was entirely
extinguished before night. Messrs. Zilker <fc
McGraw wore taking the first steps toward
putting a flour mill to oporate in connection
with their ice factory. These mou havo ico
factories in San Antonio and Austin. The
capacity of this factory was forty tons per
day.
The water pressure was very bad, but was
largely attributable to tho fact that the Bayou
compress had some of its hydrants playing,
and the further fact that several hundred feet
of hose were necessary to tap the chief water
main.
A Slight Blaze.
Beaumont, Tex., Jan. 26.—A fire broke out
in a small wooden building on Crockett street
last night about 11 o'clock, but was quickly
extinguished. Tho fire alarm was given and
tho boys respondod with their usual prompt-
ness, but fortunately thoir services were not
needed. The building is used by J. W. Nelson
as a restaurant.
Hardware Store Burned.
Newlin, Tex., Jan. 26.— Estelline, a small
town just starting up on the south bank of tho
Red river, three miles south of Newlin, was
visitod by a fire this morning. A. J. Bar-
nett's hardware store, valued at $3000, was
totally destroyed. Insurance about $1500.
Cause not known.
In Mississippi.
Greenwood, Miss., Jan. 26.—The business

Sullivan as a Rowdy.
Akron, O., Jan. 26.—John L. Sullivan and
party arrived last evening and John imme-
diately proceeded to raise a disturbance.
Colonel Wood, the proprietor of tho hotel, in-
formed John that he would not tolerate such
conduct and unless he subsided the patrol
wagon would be callod for his exclusive ben-
efit. Sullivan wished to discuss matters, but
finally quieted down.

Complications Abo^t tho Sunday Closing
Arrangement for the World's Fair.
Chicaoo, 111., Jan. 26.—[Special.J—Will
Midway plaisanco be kept open if congress
closes tho world's fair on Sundays? Several
million dollars have boen invosted in conces-
sions along the plaisanco. All of jt is private
cash and a liberal percentage of the receipts
of these private enterprises goos into tho
world's fair treasury. As tho struggle for
opening tho fair on Sundays has dragged
along the concessionaires havo viewed the situ-
ation with complacency. If tho big show were
closed it was evident that tho crowd would be
forcod to go to smaller shows on the plaisanco.
In fact it would be a great honofit to those
holding concessions should the Sunday closers
be victorious.
Few of the concessionaires doubted that tho
plaisanco would remain opun. Many never
gavo tho subject a thought, taking it for
grantod that they would do business Sundays
tho same as other days.
If others thought ot tho matter at all it was
to tho effect that the plaisanco was a part of
the fair and would be open or closed as was
Jackson park. All the territory had boon ac-
cepted from tho Southern park commissioners
for fair purposes, and tho fact that tho plais-
anco had boen devoted to concessions did not
soparato it from the fair proper. This was
tho viow the chairman of tho park finance
committee took of tho matter yostorday. "I
havo not given tho subject any thought," said
he, "but 1 should say at first glunoo that tho
plaisanco would bo closed if the main part of
tho fair is."
"If congress decides to keep tho fair closed
will tho midway piaisanco be kept opon?" was
asked President Higginbobthaui.
"Wo have not decided yet," ho replied.
Some nico questions will arise if tho plais-
anco should bo kept open, the exposition com-
pany receiving a large revenue from all the
Sunday business done in that part of tho park
grounds. Equally nice questions will arise if
tho plaisanco be closed.

PREVENTING FUTURE MISERY.
If there is, in this vale of tears, a more prolific
sourco of misery than tho rheumatic twinge, we
havo yet to hear of it. People are born with a
tendency to rheumatism, just as thoy are with
ono to consumption or scrofula. Slight, causes
may develop this. As soon as the agonizing com-
plaint manifests itself, recourse should be had to
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which checks its
further inroads and banishes tho rheumatic poi-
son from tho system. This statement tallies ex-
actly with the testimony of physicians who havo
employed this fine blood depuront in thoir pri-
vate practice, 'litere is also tho amplest profes-
sional and general testimony as to tho efficacy of
the Bitters for malaria, liver complaint, consti-
pation, indigestion, kidney trouble, nervousness
and loss of appetite and flesh. After a wetting,
whether followed by a'cold or not, tho Bitters is
usoful as a preventive of the initial attack of
rheumatism.
