It Will Take Place Next Tuesday and a Large Attendance is Anticipated. Much interest is being taken in business cir- eles in the annual banquet of the Washington board of trade, which will take place at the Arlington next Tuesday night. This organiza- tion includes in its membership representa- tives of nearly every branch of business in the District. and is thoroughly interested in the development of the city. Its establishment hhas been of much value to the community in developing a local public spirit. At the annual banquets there is usually a large delegation of legislators present and it is expected that even a greater number than usual will attend next Tuesday night. is believed that the coming oceasion will be the most interesting event in the history of ‘the board. President Myron M. Parker will preside and it is anticipated that the inteliectual menu will be fully equal to that of a material nature hich precede it. It is expected that something over a hundred members of the board will be present, together with a large number of invited guests. Amoug the latter who have already aece pted invitations are Senators Colquitt, Harris, Faulkner, Gallinge-. Pettigrew, Per- kins ‘and Dolph. Representatives Fellows, Compton, Breckinridge, Richardson, Hender- son, Cogswell and Washington, Judge Mont- mery. Controller of the Currency Lacey and . E. W. Halford. Tke chairman of the banquet committee states that there are a number of the members of the board of trade who have informally ex- Pressed an intention to be present at the ual banquet, but have not formally notified hima or the president of this intention. In order tha: piaces may be reserved for them and the proper arrangements made it is highly desirable that this information should be com- municated at once. iinet HASTE OF “SE SILVER MEN. ‘The Movement Thought to Be Started by ‘Texas Men to Injure Mr. Mills. ‘Tho immense hurry of the silver people to get a free coinage Dill before the House when it is apparent that they can get the bill through without any such display of haste has been Bard of explanation to a great many members who have Leen importuned to tuke part in the movement. One explanation of itis found ina report that the movement is being enginereed by mem- bers of the Texas delegation and their friends for the embarrassment of Mr. Mills The Texas senstorship is supposed to be involved in the matter. Mr. Mills has taken a position against free coinage which it is believed will make im unpopular at home. Mr. Culberson is a free silver man, as are also the otber members of the Texas delegation, and it ie said that they are trying to get the matter Before the House as soon as possible, so as to force Mr. Milis to declare his position in the Mouse. Mr. Mills’ reputation for cour- age leads to the impression that if the question comes up he will not attempt te dodge it, and that be will foliow «uch a course as may injure bus chances of election to the Senate. It is suspected that this is being engincered in the interest of Mr. Culberson. It is well understood by the siiver men that if they can get majority of the conse with then in favor of the free coinage bill, without count- ing Fepublican and alliance votes, they can get the bill before the House. Therefore if ther have confidence in the stability of their strength there appears no Feason for the baste that characterizes action. ‘The object in getting members to signa paper asking for a day to be set for the cousid- eration of the bill is to couvince the coumit- tee on rules that a majority of the House, counting only democrats, are deter- mined to pass the Dill.

SAFETY OF NATIONAL BANKS. An Interesting Debate on the Sub- ject Today. HOUSE. Several executive communications were laid before the House and appropriately referrod. ‘The Speaker announced the appointment of the following committee to investigate the pension office: Messrs. Wheeler of Michigan, Little of New York, Dungan of Ohio, Lind of Minnesota and Brosius of Pennsylvania. THE SWEATING SYSTEM. On motion of Mr. Hoar (Mass.) a resolution was taken up directing the committee on man- ufactures to investigate the so-called “sweat- ing” system of teneme: dhe committee is given anthority to send subcommittees to various cities in carrying on the inquiry. The expense is to be defrayed from the contingent fund of the House. Mr. Holman of Indiana thought that the amount of expenditure shouid be limited to $1,000. Mr. Hoar replied that the purpose of the committee was not to take any trip throughout the country that could be avoided. It hoped to be able to have the investigation carried on in Washington entirely. This matter was a very important one. It in- volved the tremendous question of labor in the largecities. The inquiry might result | im the passage of a law restricting immigration and of one to prevent the spread of contagious diseases. He did not think that tho House should limit the expenses of the committee to 1,000. It was an unnecessary limitation. MMR. OATES OBJECTS. Mr. Oates (Ala.) opposed the resolution. In- vestigations were frequently gotten up by gentlemen (he did not refer to the gentleman from Massachusetts) for the purpose of gaining a little cheap clap-trap notoriety. It was in that way that the jurisdiction ot Congress had been extended to investigate | all kinds of subjects—subjects with which Con- gress had nothing to do—subjects which under the Constitution Congress had no right and power to lezislate upon. Mr. Lal-vitt (Wis.) suid that he bad received letters from two of the most important cloth- ing merchants of Boston asking that the meas- ure be postponed for one week. MR. HOAR INSISTS THAT INVESTIGATION BE HAD. ‘Mr. Hoar urged upon the House the neces- TALKING FOR CHARITY. Representatives of Various Inetitntions at the Capitol—The Girls’ Reform School. The subcommittee of the House tion committee having charge of the District appropriation bill gave s hearing this morning to representatives of various local charitable institutions to atlow them an opportunity to ask for additional appropriations over the amounts estimated by the superintendent of Dr. Wilson asked $6,000 additional for the In- dustrial Home School. iss Chase and Miss Foster, in bebalf of the National Temperance Home, protested against the omission from the estimates of the sum of 2,500, which the home received in the last two appropriation bilis. ‘They also asked for $14,000, with which to erect a building. Representatives of the Association for Works of Merey asked for an appropriation of £3,700 in addition to the amount estimated. Mr. Hackett of St. Jobn’s Ofphan Asylum asked for several small increases over the esti- mate. Simon Wolff detailed the requirements of the German Orphen Asylum and asked a small ase in the estimate. Sister Euphrasia of St. Joseph's Male Orphan Asylim asked for an appropriation of $3,000 to buy food for the asylum. ‘The sieters now, she said, have to beg their supplies daily from door to door. Dr. Perey Hickling and Mrs. Herron of the Young Women’s Christian Home asked for $2,500 for maintenance for the year. Miss Travers made un earnest plea for 3,000 for St. Kose Industrial School. THE PROPOSEY GIRL'S REVORM SCHOOL. Mr. Everett of the proposed reform school for girls urged the necessity of the maintenance of this institution, and Commissioner Douglass, who wan present, indorsed his statement. He suggested the erection of cottages to accommo- cate abant forty inmates each. Police Judge Kimball suid that during the Inst yenr over 1,200 girls were arrested who were under twenty-one years of age. The majority of thom were réleasod from custody because it was not deemed best to send young girls to jail or to the workhouse. He thought £30,000 would erect two buildings.

Mrw. Waring and the treasurer of the Home for Friendless Colored Girls asked for 1,200 as a minimum figur ‘Mr. Dodge made a vigorous appeal in behalf of the Associ Charities for 500. He ex- plained the work of the association and repre- sented the good results to be obtained with an appropriation of that amount. Atthe conclusion of the hearing the com- mittee went into executive session and interro- sity of remedying evils which resulted from the sweating system. Mr. Outes inquired why the ovils could not be remedied by the state Mr. Hoar replied that they the evil. He believed that after the investiga- tion was Lad the House would find that it had good reason to pass @ more stringent immigra- tion law. Mr. Walker (Mass.) warmly advocated the resolution. Air. Bynum (Ind.) said that, while he would not oppose the pending resolution, he would oppose investigations in the future unless they were absolutely necessary. In the past investi- gating committees had expended a great deal of money and had been productive of but few satisiactory results. Mr. Morse (Mass.) and Mr. Harter (Ohio) favored the resolution. MR. REED's INQUIRY. Mr. Holman offered an amendment limiting the expenditure to 3,000. For some time Mr. Hoar held out for $5,000, and while he and Mr. Holman were disputing the point Mr. Reed (Me.) raised a laugh by asking dryly whether the contract was made. Mr. Holman proved successful and his amend- ment was adopted. On motion of Mr. Chipman (Micb.) an amendment was adopted directing the ‘com- mittee to inquire bow much increase the Mckinley bill has caused in the wages of the workmen employed in industries provided by the terms ot that bill. The resolution was adopted. SAFETY OF NATIONAL BANKS. In the morning hour the House resumed consideration of the bill for the better control of and to promote the safety of national banks, Mr. Lockwood (N.

In speaking of cases of destitution and suf- fering, Mrs. Overacker told the reporter of a case in Southeast Washington of an elder! woman, a widow with two grown sons, now that they were old enough to support her they were dying. One, she said, is suffering from a cancer and the other has the consump- tion. Another case is a family located in Northeast Washington. ‘The family consists of a mother and six children, aged two, five, seven, eight, twelve and sixteen years. The cldest, a boy, earns ¢4a week, and that is the only income the family has.

The Commiesioners, after reconsideration to- day, have recommended favorable action upon Senate bill 2003, “to ineorporate the Washing- ton Central Street Railway Company.” ‘This road if constructed and used, they say, would be very useful to portions of East Wash- ington, where the lack of means of transit is ‘source of general embarrassment and incon- venience. The portion of its ronte in the west- ern section seems to be well adapted to convey the patrons to the principal points ‘of general interest and resortin that part of the city. Its route interfores as little with those of other strect railroads as any that could probably be selected and be of reasonable service to the pubiic. Section 1 should be amended by adding after the word “passengers.” in line 60 and 61, the words “wherever more than one of the trac of said railway company shall be constructed onany of the public highways in the District of Columbia ‘the width of the space between the two tracks shall not exceed four feet.”” The bill should also be amended 40 as to require the company to pay a tax of 4 per centum on its gross receipts in lieu of per- sonal tax. The Commissioners understand this bill to be @ modification of the project embraced in Sen- ate bill 1433, *‘to ineorporate the Washington and Bladensburg Strect Railway Company,” and in view of that impression will not make farther report respecting the latter measure unless further notified. ‘This charter, if granted, would be a valuable franchise and the road would probably be coa~ structed at once. Sate TO EXTEND THE TIME, The Commissioners Draft a Bill in Refer- ence to the Assessment Now Going On. The Commissioners today submitted to Con- gress a draft of a bill “to extend the time for trict of Columbia, outside the cities of Wash- ington and Georgetown,” and recommend that it be introduced and favorably acted upon as soon as practicabie. ‘They say: “The assessment which is now in progress is being conducted in a very thor- ough manner, but the assessors and the Com- | missioners are satisfied that it cannot be com- | pleted within the time fixed therefor by the existing law. The assessors are making a rsonil examination of each piece of property in the District, and the Commissioners belicve | that the results of their labors will be more equitablo and satisfactory to the prop- erty owners than any previous assessment made since the organization of the Dis- triet government. ‘Tie assessors have about completed their work in the cities of Washing- ton and Georgetown, but in order that thoy may give the same care and attention to the assestinents of the property in the District out- le of those cities the extension of time asked for must be given. “Phe object of section3 is to obviate the necessity of having two separate collections made within such a short peiiod of each other. Section 4 is intended to do away with one of the inequitable features of tho present Jaw, which forbids the board of equalization to re- duce the aggreya:e valuation of the assess- ors. Under this law if the board of equalization finds that one picce of property has been too highly assessed it can only reduce that assesement by adding the amount deducted therefrom to the assessment of some other piece of property, which may, in their judgment, be assessed already its fuil Jue. ‘odo justice to one they must wrong another. “The operation of this provision causes much embarrassment to the ofticers of the District and dissatisfaction among the property holders. Its repeal is urgently recommended.” SSS THE CANADIAN COMMISSIONERS, They Call Upon the President—No Authority to Conclude a Treaty. ‘The Canadian reciprocity commissionere, ac- companied by Secretery Blaine and Sir Julian Pauncefote, called at the White House today and were formally presented to the President lin the blue parlor.
