Mr. Heed has Impressed tills necessity upon a number ol ttiu oluer members wuoin he honors wall his confidence and with whom he finds time, notwithstanding the rush of callers, to consult regarding mat ters not connected with the personnel ol the committees. Tlilsdocs not mean that o"chcese-paring" policy will be adopted, jr that great public works now In process of construction, will bedlscontinued In ordertoreduee appropria tions, inn it docs mean that not a dollar will be expended unnecessarily. It means, too, thai no money will lie voted for new public- buildings except where urgent neces sity exists. YVIIERK IT WILL, HIT. It is also understood torocan that the river and uarbor committee will be so eon MruUeil as lo reduce those appropriations to Hie lowest points consistent with the needs of the Government.

Mr. Reed una not, so far as can be learned, formulated any policy with respect to tariff or firainclalalegislatlon; Not only be, but the oilier Republican leaders in the House are opposed to await the 1'rcsldcnt'g mei. sage before decidlugi what course the party shall urnue..upuu. tills and oilier ques tions of national importance. MANY SUGGESTIONS OFFERED. The continued deficiency in the Treasury is causing some uneasiness unions the mem bers, aud the suggestions which have been advauced to meet the situation are as ulvcrse as liie sections tlicy represent. The Pennsylvania members, particularly, feel that the iucreased receipts should re sult front new tariff legislation, -which will give greater protection to some of the .V'ortnern and Eastern industries and at the tame time supply the aruouut which is now lacking in the customs revenue. Bomeof the New England luembersnrgue that wool should again be placed on the dutiable list and a general revision made of the woolen schedule. If this docs not check tho deficit other chunges should be mado until the proper rigures are readied.

Borne of tile iVestern men succest addltlon.il In ternal taxation, such, for example, as doubting the tax on beer. CONrLICTS WITH POLICY. This, however. Is so contrary to the Republican policy of raisinc all revenues as far as possible from customs duties that it does not meet with ceneral favor. Resides It is resarded as bad politics. Mr. Reed Is quoted as sayliiK that n. measure inoreaeinK tariff rates will, lu his oiilnliin, be sir;ncd by the President. een It It passes Ihe Benate, which be regards As problematical. The T.-outentin -Hut tho desired relief can te found in the adaption of a proper currency measure, bnvlnir for it primary object, the retirement if the irreenbatks. does nut meet-the approval or the majority of the Republicans, although It is be lieved that a rwoiumeudntlim upon these Hues wilt be contained in the President's message. It is also asserted that the President will contend that, under-the present taritr law. customs receipts will su increase that thev will no equal to all the requiromonts ot the public service. i ii . ii J.

Mr. Risner told The Times that this is all the information contained in the letter which last evcnlnc was turned over to tho Ebert family fit Alexandria. As lias oiien lj.-en staiert in The Times. Mr. Ebert was a mpuiber or the German Order of the Black Knights, and the man nt Philadelphia who wrote to Mr. Dlsiicr is an officer or the order, to whom Ebert had applied ror aid. Ebert left bis family at Alexandria ubout three weeks nco for .the ostensible iurpose of vlsltlni an uucle in Raltlmore. He neither called on tbe uncle nor ap prised his rnniily or Ids whereabouts, and Mr. Dinner stated that the letter threw no llpllt on the cause of his action.

A REMARKABLE EXHIBITION. The Wonder of Acetylene. t he Nhv II luminant Explained to mi Anpro- c-lntiM) Audience, firm nf the most rimarkahle I'hibltlons ever held In the city was given yecterdav evening at No. 73 1 Fifteenth street, when the woiMiersoi tncnewiiiiiiuinai.aijieiu. gas. were clearly demonstrated. The ex hibition was given before several hundred of our most distinguished citizens, who were enthusiastic in their praises, as tbe uovlbllitiesnl tbeuew light wereetpl.iined Carly In the evening Mr. Pason Hlustrali-d how the acetylene gas Is manufactured, the method being so simple that it was readily comprehended by all present. Acetylene is a clear, colorless, heavv gas of intense brilliancy, and might pnu. erly be described as the concentrated .: cence of coal gas or water gas. In both of tnese latter it is o vital principle, iillhouith in either it is present to the extent or only 1-2 or 1 1-2 per cent. It may be handled and distributed In snbstnntlullv the same manner as the more Tamlliar Uliun iuatlns gasscs. or it may be distributed by means much lesscomplev than thi'M" require Later In the evening Mr. Fajson clearlv demonstrated M the satisfaction ot all pres ent the eupcrlority of acetylene over all ither attlliUal illumlnants. When the ordinary Washington gas was exhibited beside lis brilliant rival the comparison was laughable. Although nnlv a one-root burner was used for the acetylene the il lumination was dazzling, and a vivid re flection was cast on the pavement without. Altogether the exhibition was a decided success, and congratulations were show ered upon the gentlemen In charge of the affair. For the benefit of those who were not able to be present last night the exhibition will continue during the week. There Is no doubt In the mauls nf those who witnessed the display tlutt acetylene will be the light or the future, and its manufacture will be bailed with delight by our citizens who are at present in the clutches ot the gas monopoly.

NO FILIBUSTERS AROARl) The bearing began at 1 1 n. in., the first witness being Axel Scbau, tbe steward of the Horsa, who was ot the opinion tbRt when the steamer left the Delaware break water on November 10, her course was pointed north, but his testimony as to tnis was somewhat conflicting. The witness declared, however, tliat the Horsa wus not boarded by any persons from the time she left Philadelphia until her arrival at Tort Antonio, Jamaica. The district attorney laid great stress upon this query nnd he asked the question in several different ways, bis ohjeit being tn prove tliat a party of filibusters bnurded the boat at sea. The steward denied that there were any additions to the crew ot twenty-tiveat any time during the voyage. Herman Nellson, the first assistant engi neer, who refused to take an oath until his arrest was ordered by the commissioner, be declaring that he could tell the truth without swearing, denied that a tugboat met UieUorsa at any tlinedurlng the voyage. The witnesi: staled that no filibusters were aboard the steamer, and further said that the only personson board rromtnc lime the boat left Philadelphia until her arrival at Port Antonio were the members of the crew. MACHINE OUN WAS TESTED. Carl Arnston, a fireman on the Horsa. testified that tho steamer took two ad ditional lire boats aboard when she left Philadelphia on November 0. After leav ing the Delaware breakwater, the witness continued, lliu steamer proceeded north ward, and at noon on rovimber 10 the anchor was dropped. Alter lylng-to tor about an hour, a ag boat came alongside, and unloaded a number or cases and thixty elcht men onto tho Horsa. The party remained en the steamer.

Uuns, rliica, nuda mcclilneKun. which were in tbe cases, were placed amidships, and once during the vojege the machine gun was fired In order to test it. Arnston testltied that each member of the Horsa's crew was to receive 425 for keeping silent about the expedition, and that be understood from one of liie Cuban filibusters that John D. Hart, the owner of viie vessel, was to get $12,bU0 lor landing the expedition. Thomas Ptier Ncllsnn, the chief engineer, denied In toto tLat any iillbusters or any ammunition were plaCLdou board the shin.

"Bob" wits making an address ouloglstlc of the Booth, telling whimsical stories and singing old songs, suddenly the fellow In the audience gave utterance to n grunt of displeasure and then a hiss. Tho ex governor stopped short, turned his eves upward to the gallery and In a voice that Snowed his feelings, said: "There is one fool In this houss. I have the greatest respect for tbe brave men who met the South in the clash of arms on tlie battlefield, but I bavo the most supreme contempt for tbe person who Jeers at the South In this day of good will be tween the sections. 1 am sure be never smelled powder. He should be put out." Then thu ex-governor stalked oft the stage, and as an evidence that the auulenue wos by no means in sympathy with, the rude fellow la the gallery, a wave or hearty applause followed the speech. The curtain went down, however, and after u tew seconds' painful silence an attache of the show stepped forward and said. "This is the first time we have been treated discourteously, and Gov. Taylor Is too much disconcerted to proceed with tbe entertainment." MAY GO ON GOODWIN SANDS. Perllou-. Position of tho Grounded Packet Steumer Huplde. London. Nov. 29. Tbe Belgian packet Raplde was due to arrive at Dover ni2.au o'clock this afternoon, but she did not get in. nnd nothing was beard from her until this evening, when n pilot lauded frem the steamer Lancashire and reported tbe Kapicle was anchored near its Good win Sands. She has twenty passengers on board, and a tag started from Dover to take them and her mails off. Up to midnight the rug bad not returned. There Is a high wind blowing and a heavy sea running, and tbe weather conditions are getting worse hourly. Tbe wind is b'owing towrTd the Good win Sands, which is one of the most dan gerous places along the English coast. The position ot tbe Rapide is dangerous and there is much auxiety concerning her sarety. She will be all right as long as her anchora and cables bold, but should the former drag or the latter part the steamer will undoubtedly go on the sands, when there would not be one cbance in a hun dred ot saving her.

The chaplaincy seems to be the onlr position ror which there Is any kind of a right KoinK on. The combine man is Ker. Mr. Fisher of Kansas. But the minis ters, bearinir in mind the action of the Ik-publicans or the Firty-Hrst Congress, are making a desperate fight for it.

The Senatorial caucus meets Immedi ately after adjournment Monday. Tbero is a growing impression tuat the Kepjbileani will reorganize the Senate. Senator 1'etll grevr of Sorta Dakota, who reached AVash Ington yesterday, is one of those Repub licans who believe the Kenub'Uans will organize the Senate In all its brant ties. "I do not see," said he, "how the Re publican party can. at least, escape the responsibility, fur limiting the attempt to do this. It can hardly go to tho country ou the pica of being unable to control legislation without having made nn cHort so in do. If it makes the effort It will not rail; that I know to be an absolute and incontrovertible fact. "There are at letst two ot the so-called Populists who will vote for any ticket the Republican caucus may name. They -tvilldo it vrilhoaia bargain and without putting the Republican party under olill-t gallons to item in nny particular. Tbo Democrats cannot organize without get ting nil the Populist votes, and that thev cannot secure. The Populists cannot get anything like a sufficient number of the Democratic votes to carry a ticket of their own make-ap through tbe Senate. "BoTli propositions may come before tho Senate, and if tLey do they will be voted down. Then when tbe Republicans nom inate their candidates there will be enough votes to elect them. V,"e arc compelled to make this effort on the ofrice or President pro tern, or the Senate. Ibal orrice having died with tbe expiration or tho term of Senator narris. and when that door is once opened we cannot avoid completing the task. Ik Is sure to come before us. ncd vtie Republicans will distse of It by tho election of their own officers." The number of Representatives cnminc into the city yesterday was very large.
