Democrats Expected to Continue Policy of Retrenchment in j Next Congress. (Special to The Times-Dispatch.] Washington, November 17.?Word reached Washington to-day that there tuny bo warfuro among the Democrat* In Congress this winter over the mat? ter or making appropriations for rlvura and harbors, publlo buildings, the construction of additional battlo shlps, tho enlargement of the stand? ing army of the country, and other mutters of a similar kind. It la to bo a flght between those members who will contend for their usual appropria? tions regardless of what the Demo- { nruts as a party may think about cut? ting down governmental expenditures, and those members of the Ways and Means and Appropriations Commlltccea who have ulrcady let It bo noised about that tho pruning knife lu being whetted In most approved fashion. Just how fur this fueling goes with members of tho Ways and Means Com? mittee Ib to be seen from the fact that a member of this committee to-day, in nnBwer to a question us to what ho expected to get out of the rivers and harbors bill and other almllar "pork barrel" measures. Bald that ho did not expect to get anything; on i the contrary, that us a member of the commltteo Just referred t?. he expected to do everything possible, to cut down expenditures. "The Republi? cans." ho said, "have carried recent appropriations to Buch extreme meas? ures that It will be up to the Demo? crats to swing the reduction uxe, and for one, as a member of the Wuys and Means Committee, 1 mean to do my part." It has been understood for some time that this, would bo tho policy of the Democrats In Congress this winter? ever slnco last spring, lu fact, when the Democrats chopped off the heads of countless officials around the Capitol, It lias been recognized that the spirit of retrenchment was In the air. The reduction In the force of employes at that time sent up a loud protest, but the decapitation went on Just the same, and before tho Democrats had been Irj control of tho House a month numerous j heads tilled the oftlclul waste, basket? I on Capitol Hill. When It becomes generally lenown I that there is to bo opposition to n good, I healthy river and hurbor 1)111, a public building Mil and others, and that tho I Democrats are going to opporq the pas siigo of a generul pension hill and will likewise fight army and navy appropri? ations, especially for the construction of new battleships. It is almost certain that there will he many protests. The 1 Democrats are not all a unit for aucii I wholcBUle reduction of appropriations. ! Many of them say that the people throughout the country are entitled to receive a continuation of government appropriations for the development of their Internal Improvements of differ? ent kinds, and that their constituents will be heard from unless they protest most vigorously against a pdllcy of small and insignificant appropriations As a matter of fact, It Is quite prob? able, In spite of all the reductionists lu Congress may do, that this session will be another "billion dollar" Con? gress. It Is the "long" session. The Democrats are In power in the House, und huvo practically control of the henate. Such a sltuatl-n has not ex? isted for almost twenty years, and may not exist again for another long period, according to somo of the well posted Representatives who hold mem? bership In the Sixty-second Congress. Therefore, they claim that If thoy ever expect to secure anything worth while for their constituents they must do It now. If the Ways and Means Committee of the House, when Jt meets early In the comfng month to frame up legis? lation for the coming session, shall announce Its policy to be one of cut? ting to the bone, trouble may be looked for. Using the pruning knife to a limited extent, many members say, la all right, but swinging It too vigorously and cutting too deeply Is all wrong. P. H. McQ. TREASURER RESIGNS. W.

The iron and steel trade Is Btlmulated by th; lncrcRBed orders of railroads for rails i and rolling stock, and by the, some? what ),ettcr demand for nlructurul rua.- I terlals. Dower quotations Induce Horno business jn other Ilnlshed products, but dullness still prevails In sheiit Blee], tin plate and wire product*. Iron Is Homuwhal improvod, buying of foundry grades being larger In cer? tain directions, although the llxing of quotations for 1013 Is siill a retarding influence. Bessemer Iron Is weaker at Pittsburgh. The Increased demand in retail dry goods stores, duo to cooler weather, naa led to more active demand in pri? mary channels for any lot of mer? chandise ready for quick shipment. Prices are settling to lower levels, and this la .stimulating the placing of con? tract business In a quiet way. Orders for hose, belting and miscellaneous wide dt.ck are increasing, and prints. glnghaniH and bleached cottonn are moving ntendily in small lots. Miscellaneous export trade on the cotton goods In very satisfactory and no cancellation of China orders has been received. The narrowing mnrgln of profit is causing a careful atten? tion to the danger of overproduction at the mills. In woolens and worsteds, mills aro running n substantial part of their machinery. Weekly Cotton Review. New York, November 17.?Cotton hay offered a stubborn resistance to anything of a depressing character, lime alter time it has demonstrated a certain strength which has defied bears and others. it might decline, but it speedily rallied. The crop might bo estimated as high as 16,000.000, but larmera have refused to pell freely. Many of them have been holding back their cotton ultogelher. Many believe that a big crop, even 15,000.01)0 to 16,000,000 bales, lias been amply dis? counted In tho big decline In prices since last summor. It Is pointed out, too, that a grown crop Is one thing, a commercial crop, or a crop actually sent to market. Is another thing. The commercial crop may be much smaller than tho olio actually raised. The South, It is added, has In the past shown Its ability to hold back cotton, und what has been may be again. The export? aro largo. Large spot Inter? ests have been big buyers of Decem? ber and other near months. One of them In forty-eight hours. It Is said, bought 100,000 bales of January. The revision of differences hero on Wed? nesday Is confitrued as bullish. Some half dozen well known Llvorpool houses, at one lima bearish, are now bullish In their convictions.
