TEXARKANA, ARKANSAS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 14, 1894.
CONGRESS AT WORK.
Th* First Two Days of the Present
Week Prove Busy Ones in
the House.
The sound of the (ravel from the
Speaker's desk in the House on
Monday morning announced to the
members of that body the opening
of the week s session of Congress,
which promises to be both a busy
and important one in the history of
both branches of the national ’ as
sembly.
Immediately following the open
ing exercises came a request from :
Mr. Grosvenor, of Ohio, that Satur
day, March 3d, at 3 o'clock p. m.,
ne set aside for the purpose of pay- i
ing tribute to the memory of a de- i
ceased member, Mr. Enoch, late 1
■Represenative from Ohio. i
On motion of Mr. Breckinridge '
(Ark.) a bill was passed authorizing '
the Ft. Smith & Van Buren rail- ’
road to construct a bridge across
tho Arkansas river. ,
Mr. Flinn, of Oklahoma, asked ;
unanimous consent for the passage >
of a resolution to prevent the ap
proval of new leases in the Wichita,
Kiowa, Comanche and Apache In
dian reservations pending the result ’
of the treaties now being negotia- 1
ted to open the surplus lands of 1
those reservations for settlement. '
Mr. Cox, of Tennessee, asked un- ’
animous consent for the consldera. 1
tion of a resolution authorizing the ’
adjustment of certain claims be- '
tween the tlnited States and the 1
railroads of Tennessee. Mr. Cox 1
that a similar settlement had been ’
made with the railroads of all the !
other Southern states.
The first bill called up was one to 1
regulate the sale of intoxicating li
quors in the district. It amended ,
a former act prescribing the limit
of distance four hundred feet of a '
school or church, within which no ■
place for the sale of intoxicating li
quors should be located. It exempt
ed places established and licensed
before the passage of the former .
act. Its whole purpose was to pre- 1
vent the law from being retro-act
ive. Mr. Cobb explained the pur
pose of the bill.
Mr. Pickier offered an amend
ment restricting liquor licenses for
hotels to such as have thirty sleep
ing apartments, which was defeat
ed. Mr. Pickier made a point of
no quorum, but, after filibustering ,
for some time, he withdrew his
point and the bill was passed. This .
was the only bill from the commit
tee on the District of Columbia, and .
Mr. Breckinridge then moved to go ;
into a committee of the whole' for
the consideration of the urgent de
ficiency bill.
At 4:15 p. m. the House adjourn
ed.
TUESDAY'S SESSION.
The House spent the day in de
bate on the Bland seigniorage bill,
the principal speeches being those
by Mr. Culberson, of Texas, in favor
of the measure, and Mr. Coombs, of
New York, in opposition.
Several times during the day Mr.
Bland attempted to reach an agree
ment for closing general debate,
with a view to securing a vote, but
objection was made. Over forty
members have asked for time to
speak, and it may be possible that
a special order will be required to
bring the bill to a vote, but Mr.
Bland does not think this method
will have to be resorted to.
Some routine business preceded
the debate on the Bland silver
seigniorage bill. The Speaker laid
before the House the Hawaiian
message from the President, trans
mitted Monday. At the request of
Mr. Burrows it was read and re
ferred to the foreign affairs com
mittee.
Mr. Johnson, of North Dakota,
said that he favored the coinage of
the seigniorage and the silver bul
lion in the Treasury but that was
only the superficial purpose of the
Bland bill.
Mr. Bankhead, of Alabama, sup
ported the Bland bill, as modified
by the amendment of its author,
offered Monday. He favored the
more liberal use of silver, and he
could see no reason why the legiti
mate profit of the government in
the purchase of silver should not
be coined into standard money.
Mr. Denson (Dem., Ala.) followed
, Mr Bankhead and discussed the
general phazes of the silver ques
of silver. He sketched the trepi‘
dation produced in the old world by
the disruption of the trade value in
In Mr, Combs (Dem., N. Y.) opposed
the pending measure. It was not
pleasant for him, he said, to differ
' f r om his Democratic colleagues. He
approached the question,he said, as
a business proposition.
The first section of the bill pro
vided for the coinage of the imagi
nary seignorage in the Treasury.
There had been purchased since 1890,
450,000.OOOouncesof silver forwhich
the government paid $404,000,000.
Its value now is but 295,000.000. In
other words, the loss of the govern
ment, if liquidated would be SIOB,-
000,000. Yet, said Mr. dombs, we
are asked in the face of that great
loss to presume that the govern
ment has made in the seignorage
since 1890 $55,000,000. I do not
know anything in the shape of a
business proposition more mon
strous. There are now $419,000,000
in silver. If the provisions of this
bill should be carried out this aggre
gate of coined silver would be in
creased to $600,000,000, worth at
this time, in the markets of the
world but $295,000,000.
After some further debrte on
general measures the House ad
journed until the usual hour Wed
nesday morning.
A Dramatic Success.
“By Wits Outwitted,” which will
be seen at Ghio’s Opera House Sat
urday Feb. 17, comes preceded by a
record of success in the principal
eastern cities. The play presents a
bright and pretty plot, woven aud
interwoven in intricate meshes with
deft fingers in a most entertaining
and masterly manner a manner
that at first qrovokes a smile, then
profound laughter. The scenes are
lain in Spain, and here and there we
see touches of the Spanish charac
ter. A rich father who desires to
marry his young and handsome
daughter to an old slave trader is
outwitted by his own machinations.
He plans an elopement for his neph
ew with a wealthy hut unknown
young lady. His consternation can
well be imagined when he discovers
too late that all his scheming for
his nephew has been aimed at
himself, as his daughter is the girl
in question.
The idea is a very funny one and
compels laughter of itself. The
company is an exceptionally capa
ble one.

PROTECTION ASKED.
The California Senators Will Stand
Out for Protection on Fruit.
Senator White, of California, is
busily engaged, among his col
leagues at Washington, in an effort
to secure protection for California
fruits, which the fruit growers of
that State claim will be materially
injured if the fruit schedules of the
McKinley bill are not allowed to
stand as they are. He is particu
larly anxious to secure protection
for oranges, prunes and raisins. In
this effort the California senator is
receiving the assistance of the Flor
ida senators, who are very anxious
to have the duty on oranges in
creased. Senator White says the
fruits of California will be compell
ed to enter into competion with
those of the Mediterrean and Mex
ico, and the result will be that for
eign fruits will make it unprofitable
to raise fruits in California. Flori
da men think the competition they
have with the West Indies will be
very damaging to the orange indus
try of that state. Senator White
is in full sympathy also with Sena
tor Dubois, of Idaho, in his effort to
secure a duty upon silver-lead ores.
The Wilson bill allows these ores to
come in free if they are mors’ valu
able for silver than lead. It is
claimed when a car is loaded with
lead it is easy to put enough silver
on top of the load to make it ap
pear more valuable for silver than
lead and the results is Mexican lead
is practically allowed to come in
free. This was the arrangement up
to the time the McKinley bill went
into effect. Then a duty of $36 per
ton was put upon all lead ore, and
the result has been to restrict to a
considerable extent the importa
tion of Mexican ore. Senator White
says this very fact shows this is a
good revenue article, and while he
thinks it may be well to reduce the
duty some, the senator thinks the
duty ought to be kept on in the in
terest of revenue.
Thus it would appear that an in
terested constituency, in several
states, whose Industrie's are affect
ed, will have the effect of making
more than one opponent for the
Democartic measure of tariff re
form, in the United States Senate.

ANNIE MAY ABBOTT.
This wonderful feminine phenom
enon, commonly known as the
“Georgia Magnet," whose fame has
been heralded abroad throughout
the land by the press both of Eu
rope and America, makes her initial
appearance before a Texarkana
audience, at Ghio's Opera House,
on Friday evening, the 17th, in
stant,
The following is one of the many
comments, on this Magnetic wonder,
by the Berlin Press, during her stay
in the “Fatherland:”
Annie Abbott's exhibition was a
mystification, a twistification, a
paralyzation, a whirlwind, a thun
der-storm, a cyclone, an infantry
charge, cavalry charge, artilery
charge, a victory, a defeat, a rout.
It was a inusculo-mesmeric-acrobat
ic' magnetic-electric-spiritualistic
hypnotic triumph She dumfound
ed, astounded, confounded us. She
is a puzzle, a riddle, a mystery.
How she did it, we do not know,
but she did it. She picked men up
and threw them down; she turned
them over and turned them under.
She out-pushed, out-pulled, held,
lifted,twisted, tumbleda dozen men,
and was not tired a bit. She wal
loped men into a tsemendous head
ache and then cured them in two
minutes and sent them away cloth
ed in their right mind. She is too
much fox us. Can nobody tell us
what it is? —[Borsen Courier, Berlin
Germany.
THE LASeTtRIAL.
Fully two hundred visitors will 1
throng the court room at Perryville
Ark., at the opening of the trial of
the case of Stats vs. Dave and Jake
Laser, charged with the murder <
of Ben Levison, a Jewish merchant <
of Little Rock. The case will prob- ,
ably not be called for trial before <
to-morrow. It was taken to Perry- <
ville on a change of Venue from
Pulaski county, Among those who ,
will be present at the opening of
the trial, are Mrs. Levison, widow
of the murdered man and Mrs. Laz
arus, of Camden, Ark.
Seventy-three witnesses have
been subpreaned in the case and the
trial which will be hotly contested
by both the State and defense,
promises to be long and sensation
al.
Judge Martin said before leaving
for Perryville that he was unable to
say whether the prisoners would be
tried separately or together. He
thought, however, that they would
demand a separate trial.

UNION PACIFIC STOCK.
It is Causing much Trouble In The
Committees of Congress.
The general impression in Legis
lative circles, at Washington, is
that congress will have a hard
problem to solve, and that very
soon, in complications which have
arisen over the stock of the Union
Pacffic railroad, now in the hands
of receivers.
During the past week there has
been much quiet discussion of the
mattei, spurred on by the atten
tion given to other embarrassments
in the railroad situations arising
from the management of roads by
receivers. Mr. C. P, Huntington
has been in Washington several
days in consultation part of the
time with Senator Brice, chairman
of the Senate committee of Pacific
railroads, and also with other sena
tors and representatives.
The result of his visit is the intro
duction of a bill for refunding the
debt of the Union Pacific. Part of
of Mr. Huntington's time was spent
explaining his views to members
of the house cemmittee on Pacific
railroads, This committee, howev
er, seems to be disposed to permit
the senate to take the initiative in
proposing plans for adjusting the
indebtedness of the railroad to the
government.
If it should go to work independ
ently to devise a scheme of its own
trouble or differences would ensue
between (he two houses. Repre
sentative Reilly, of Pennsylvania
chairman of the house committee,
conferred frequently with Senator
Brice on the subject and is fully in
formed as to the views of the Sen
ate committee. Several schemes
for a settlement have been propos
ed to the house committee, but no
one of them has yet received suffic
ient backing to justify a mention as
a probability. Hon. Jerry Simpson,
Populist leader, says the govern
ment should buy the Union Pacific
outright and run it. “If we suc
ceed with it, it will be a step toward
government control of railroads,”
he added.
