Chicago | ‘Coke's National Baok Bil. Senator Morrill today reported advereely Senator Coke's bili to amend the law regarding national bank associations so as to discontinue their circulation. Ina report submitted Mr. Morrill says it is obvious that the bill would cause a large re- duction, on the day of its passage, of the money now in circulation and create a severe contraction by prohibiting the banks at once from using their circulating notes and would also compel them within six months to curtail and collect their loans to such an extent as would enable them to redeem their entire circulation. The sudden collection of this iarge amount of indebtedness would be ys, and might involve serious At present, says the Senator, there isa | «mail but steady increase in the circniation of national banks, which has been in progress for the past year, and a sudden measure, practi- cally winding’ up and exterminating national banks ,would, he thinks, be a national disaster. Continuing, he says: “How national banic ing associations can be expected to sur- | vive and flourish after all lignments have been sundered that have hitherto bound them to tho nation is a problem that | {needs explanation. ‘Their circulating notes having ali been redeemed and the bonds which were deposited for the security of these notes it would secm as though tho banks were completely divorced irom the nation and ‘might assume names. and continue the banking business if they chose to do_in any state where the laws of the state do not forbid it. ‘lhe permission to ¥, itacccepted, would at once change the function of national banks associations to that of savings banks and em- bark them in a business with which they are wholly unacquainted, and would be likely to involve them in serious losses.” : in conclusion Senator Morrill says that with- ont condemning the other pointsof the bill it is enough to say that the measure is premature and that its general effect wouid not be to pro- mote the general welfare of the country. VIRGINIA WAR CLAIMS INTRODUCED. In tho House today Mr. Meredith of Vir introduced a bill appropriating $3,000 to com- peusate the trustees of Hunter's Chapel and Arlington Heights for the use of the church dur- ing the war; aiso a bill appropriating £51,000 to recompense Geo. 8. Ayre for bonds and money taken by the United States troops; also a bill appropriating $2,500 for the use of the United States troops of ‘the st. Paul Church, Hay- market, Va. ESTIMATES FOR IMPROVEMENTS. ‘There was today laid before the House @ communication from the Secretary of War submitting an estimate of appxopriations ag- gregating £131,900 for buildings and improve- ments at the Pacific branch of the National Home for Disabied Volunteer Soldiers at Saute Monica, Cal., for the fiscal year 1593. THE SOCIETY OF AMERICAN FLORISTS. A bill providing for the incorporation of the the Subject. BE MAKES NO SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS FOR ACTION, BUT THINKS CONGRESS OUGHT NOT TO WITHHOLD. JUST AND REASONABLE FURTHER SUPPORT UNDER PROPER CONDITIONS. The President today sent to Congress the following message: I transmit herewith, for the information of Congress, the annual report of the world’s Columbian commission, a supplementary re- port of the same commission submitted Feb- ruary 16, 1892, the report of the | board appointed by me under section 16 of the | act of April 25, 1890, to have charge of the e: hibit to be made by the executive departments, the Smithsonian Institution, the fish commis- sion and the national museum and the report of the board of lady managers provided for by section 6 of the act referred to. The information farnisbed by these reports a8 to the progress of the ot only satis~ factory but highly grati ta scope adopted and the lected and now being erected are full | mensurate with the national and international character of the enterprise contemplated by the legislation of Congress. The Llinois cor- porations have fully complied with the condition Of the iaw that $10,000,000 should be provided and the government commission reports that to such purposes It seems, however, that from five to eight millions of oliars more will, in the opinion of the local board and the national commission, be necessary to prepare the exposition tor a complete aud successful inauguration. It will be noticed from the reports that it was tirst pro- posed by the local commission toask of Congress ‘@ loan of $5,000,000 to be repaid from receipts, and thet the national commission approved th: suggestion. Subsequently the Llineis exposi tion corporation reccneidered its action, and determined to ask =a — subscription of 100,000. ‘she supplementary report the “national commission seems to pprove this amended proposition. I have not self that detailed imformation as to the finun- cial necessities of the enterprise which would engble me to form an independent judgment of the additional amount necessary, and am not therefore prepared to make any specific rec- ommendation to Congress upon thé subject. ‘ihe committees of Congress having this matier in charge will undoubtediy obtain tull and ac- curate information before final action. The exposition, notwithstanding the limitations which the act contains, is an enterprise to which the United States is so far committed that Congress ought not, I think, to with- hold just und reasonable further support, if the local corporation consents to proper con- ditions. Liberality on the part of the United States is due to the foreign nations that have responded in’ a friendly way to the invitation of the government to participate in the exposi- tion, and will, 1am sure, mect the approval of our people. ‘the exposition will be one of the most illustrious incidents in our civie history. Society of American Florists was favorably acted upon by the House committee on agri- culture today. ‘THE ANTI-OPTION BILL. The anti-option bill was not considered by the committee today. It is generally under- stood that it will be allowed to remain un- acted upon for several weeks, #0 that the me bers of the committee can have an opportunity to think about the features of ‘the bill and to revd the large number of arguments that were tiade on both sides while hearings onit were in progress. EASTERN SHAWNEE INDIANS. Senator Perkins today introduced a bill ing an appropriation of $47,060 for fulfilling treaty stipulations with the eastern band of Shawnee Indians. INTERSTATE COMMERCE. The Senate committee on interstate com- merce today heard further argument upon the pending bill to amend the interstate commerce Itransmit also certain resolutions adopted by representatives of the National Guards of the various states, appointed by the governors to attend aconvention which wes held in Chi- cago on the 27th of October. 1891, with a view to consider the subject of ‘holding a military encampment at Chicago during the exposition. The Commission’s Report The report of the Columbian commission mentioned in the President's message is signed by President Palmer and dated Ragen by No- vember 25, 1891, A general outline of the sub- stance of this report has been made public, though Mr. Palmer refused to give out the aioe when he presented it to the President. he report says that “within the twelve D. C., WEDNESDAY. “the grounds and buildings will be the most | extensive, adequate and ornate evor devoted | months intervening since the last report most satisiactory advancement bas been made in every department of the work und the «ub- stantial resuite already attained not only attest the energy and efficiency of the agencies gmp- ployed in its prosecution in their seve spheres, but furnish us well the assurance that act in various particulars, especially in respect to the weight to be given to the findings of the commission. The speakers before the committee this morning were ex-Commissioner Schoonmaker of the interstate commerce commission and Mr. Stahlman, commissioner for the Southern Rail- oad Association. These gentlemen opposed ¢ bill at length, holding that it was an inexpe- dient measure and would fail of ist purpose. THE MUTILATION OF Corns. Senator Manderson struck a blow at the bangle industry today by the introduction of an amendatory bill which provides that every person who, within the United States or any territory thereof, for any purpose whatsoever, willfully, by any art, way or means, defaces, imutilates, impairs, diminishes, falsifies, scales or lightens the gold and silver coins which have been or which may hereafter be coined at the mints of the United States, or any foreign gold or silver coins, or who by any process intentionally changes the appearance of any coin so asto make it resemble in color a coin of greater value shall, uponcon- discharged until tomorrow. One writer, a colored man named George Roberts, did not_appear to have the protection of either policy firm. Lawyer Moss was his counsel, and he seid he intended to plead guilty, but ‘as the govern- menthad the witnesses present, Mr. Mullowney called a colored boy who gave evidence of hav- ing played policy on him. ‘Who is this man?” inquired the court. “He seems to be a lone star,” remarked Mr. Mullowner. The court imposed a fine of #50 or thirty days in jail. In the case of George Douglass a nolle pros. was entered and the cases of Charles Cross and Fletcher Yates were continued. Sega as DEMOCRACY IN THE WEST. Frank Hurd and Ex-Gov. Campbell Confer With Cleveland. Cnrcaco, Feb. 24.—In the face of the general ials a special dispatch from Detroit says that Frank Hurd, Ohio, an avowed Cleveland man, slipped quietly into Ann Arbor on Mon- day and, together with Gov. Campbell and two or three Michigan democrats, had « long conference with ex-President Cleveland in jargely in his favor and that with proper man- ment he might snap his fingers at Hill in New York and secure the nomination. Palmer was sizcere in his allegiance and would squelch any opposition in Iihuois, while as for Olio, here was Gov. Campbell himself to vouch for its loyalty. Should any unseen contingency arise to overwhelm the ex-President he could turn his strength over to bell and defeat Hill at his own game. st. is the plan as outlined by « gen- the confidence of the managers. Seeger EDWARD FIELD’S BEHALF. IN Bourke Cockran, His Counsel, Claims That He Was Not Mentally Kesponsibie. New Yorx, Feb. 24—The trial of Edward M. Field was continued today before Judge Van Brunt in the court of oyer and terminer. The court room was crowded. An eloquent appeal was made to the jury by Hon. Bourke Cockran, counsel for Mr. Field. He said that while Edw. M. Field came from a family illustrious beyond compare in one generation, his grandfather and grandmother's brother had both died lunatics and that his sister was now an inmate of «lunatic asylum and had been for years. His chent had bad constantly recurring attacks of mania. ——_ ARIZONA BADLY NEEDS RAIN. Unless It Comes in Three Weeks Many of the Cattle Will Die. Bexsox, Auiz., Feb. 24—The people of this section are anxiously watching the weather. ‘The failure of rain for the next three wecks will be a serious blow to the cattle interest in Arizona. The past year has been very dry up to within the last three weeks. Practicaliy no rain has fallen for nearly a year, and the losses of cattle throughout the territory are already larger than for seven years, Jos. Land, eattle inspector for Benson and Pantano district, estimates the loss along San | Pedro above Benson at 12 per cent and on the lower San Pedro 50 percent up to the present time.

Abbott, who was an army nurse in Union Hotel Hospital, Georgetown. ‘The bill to bring this about was introduced this afternoon. ; ‘A NOVEL POINT OF ORDER. An entirely novel point of order was raised in the Senate yesterday by Senator Frye. The bill providing for a commission on the subject of the alcoholic liquor traftic was being consid- cred, and when the time came to vote on its passage Senator Frye was the only one who staid “aye.” Senator Vest seemed to be the only one who voted “no.” Senator Turpie was inthe chair and he declared that “by the sound” the “noes have it.” ‘fo this decision Senator Frye objected on the ground that he had voted more loudiy than did the Senator from Missouri. ‘he good-humored_ proiest raised a little laugh in the gaileries.. The ques- tion was temporarily settled by the laying aside of the bill. ARIZONA'S WORLD'S FAIR LOAN. Delegate Smith of Arizona has reported a bill from the House territories committee to ratify an act of the Arizona legislature author- izing the issue of bonds to the amount of $30, 000 to enable the territory to be properly represented at the world’s fair. ‘The port accompanying the bill says congressional the work of pre} n will be fully com- leted within the period contemplated y the act of Congres, and that the exposition will be inaugurated and conducted ina manner worthy of its nationai and inter- nationai character, and with asuccess in its im- mediate and consequential revults which will certainly realize, if they shall not exceed, the expectation and demands of the American people and stimulate them to greater efforts in all that tends to the materigl and moral devel- opment of the nation and the augmentation of its substantial prosperity.” It then takes up the question of the exposi- tion site, which, it says, is exceptionally eligi- ble and fully adequate to all demands. Under the head of “grounds and buildings” the statement is made that the work is well under way and is being energeticaily prosecuted. ihe various buildings are cuumerated. “A specific statement,’ auds the report, “of the dimensions and architectural desigus of each of these several buildings would in- volve too much of elaboration and detail, yet it may, be appropriately noted, in this con- nection, that sn no feature is the magni- tude ‘of the proposed exposition moro clearly emphasized than in the churac- ter and capacity of the buildings to be devoted thereto, which are generaily much greater in their dimensions and will afford a much larger aggregated area of space for exhibition purposes than have ever been hitherto erected therefor. ‘This exceedingly important and vitui branch of the work is peculiarly the province of the Illinois corpora- tion, and energy, good judgment and deter- mination, as well us the practical methods pursued’ by the directory of that corporation in its active and unabated prose- cution justly entitles that body totieconfidence and commendation of the 1atioual commission and the country, and fully justifies the conclu- sion that the grounds and buiidings will be the most extensive, adequate and ornate ever de- voted to such purposes.” ‘The fifteen departments through which the affvirs of the exposition are administered, the report says, with one or two exceptions, are in active operation under the itamediate diree- tion of competent and ficient chiefs, whose montuly reports show that they are judiciously and economicaliy udministered and demonstrate the wisdom of adopting this method of administration. “Much,” the re- port continues, “has already been accom- plished-in the line of preliminary exploitation and promotion, both. at howe and abroad. + "© ‘Che efforts of the departinent of pub- licity and promotion, specially charged with this duty, have beon well directed toward arousing interest, and what has becn thus far achieved may be accepted as the earnest of its capacity successfully to deal with the subse- quent stagos of the work, with the co-opera- lve aid of the severai other departments, each authority is necessary because of the law for- bidding territories to incur any indebtedness exceeding 4 per cent of the assessed vaiuation of the property within the territory. ‘The report says Arizona's assessed valuation is ouly $30,000,000, but that its taxable value is Teally $50,000,000. DRAWBACK ON TIN PLATE, ETC. Astatement has been laid before the House from the commissioner of customs showing that 21,711,061 drawback was allowed by the government on tin cans, &c., manufactured from imported tin plate and’ exported from October 1, 1890, to December 81, 1891 Another to December 81, 1891, aggregated $92,201.

One of the boys was sitting down and the other Was getting ready to play pool. They started to piay again, but one of them (McCreary) chjveted to Vandeventer's coming in the game. McCreary, he said, commenced play Witi another young man and witness re- turned to the rear of the room, and while be was there the second blow was struck. That, he was the time the cue was used, but he did not witness the blow. Wi ness returned to where they were and Van- deventer was lying on the floor. Some oi was holding McCreary and one of the players wax calling” for some water for the injured boy. ‘The young man who had hold of McCreary was John Pearson. The nearing was in progress when this re- port closed. ees THE POST OFFICE SITE. ‘The Borings Thus Far Have Produced Very Satisfactory Kesults. The borings for rock for a foundation for the new city post office have so far all had the most satisfactory results imaginable... The first four pits that were dug struck rock at various depths, but all in the neighborhood of thirty- five feet below the surface. This gives every promise of a most substantial foundation. Pit No. 5 was completed last night, It discovered a stratum of rock at a depth of thirty-eight feet one-haif inch beneath the surface. The rock is overlaid with a stratum of sand and gravel eleven feet thick, that would of itself be a good foundation even if the rock were not there. ‘The pit was about midway. of the building site from east to west and 87 feet from the north building line, at a point where the great tower. the heaviest part Of the structure, will come, and the finding of rock foundation under the circumstances was most welcome. From what has already been found it is only Teasonable to suppose that the entire square is underlaid with a rock that undulates slightly, Dut is still reasonably regular, and a first-rate foundation for the building’ is practically as- sured. The sixth pit is now being bored and will probably be finished this evening. ————_. CUTTING THE TREES, A Strong Protest Sent to the District Com- missioners on the Subject. The following letter from Mr. R. U. Piper has been received by the Commissioners: “‘As you have jurisdiction over the streets of the city allow ine to ask you to calls halt in regard to the reckless cutting of the trees which is now going on here. certainly want all the shade we can get during the summer time, both as a matter of comfort and as respects the public health. “As to the health and life of the trees them- selves, no fact in vegetable physiology is better established than that growing tree’ branches draw on the vitality of the tree with much less force than does the development of the latent wood buds left after the barbarous work seen on a great number of trees in many parts of the city. A large num- ber of these mutilated trees will certainly die. Almost in front of my house two trees have Iready died from this cause, and another still standing ix almost dead. ‘Let me aiso ask you to consider that in all this broad iand as far as known, except in one little town in the interior of Ohio, has any such vandal work been done. Surely ail wie- dom on the subject cannot be contained in the heads of one or two men. “You will remember that Dr. Johnson said that ‘all Scotland could scarcely show a ae This large enough to make walking stick.’ might be the reason why a Scotch might wish to reduce the size or for trees of this city to those of ‘old Scotia.” ‘Allow me to say gentlemen, that I have been across the continent six times, from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and that I have made the study of trees a specialty, both as an ar- tist and as a scientist. and aiso practically, and the work done in this city in the destruction of trees seems to me the resuit of a strange sort of mental aberration. “Ihave been told today that the amount of wood cut from the trees in this city, like that from other. public grounds in other parts of the country, 18 no small induecment for doing this vandal work. At the present rate of destruction this city, mstead of being a city of trees, will soon become a city of stump: DISTRICT GOVERNMENT. BROOKLAND AND ITS NEEDS. Senator McMillan, chairman of the Senate District committee, has received a letter from Mr. H. Barton of Brookland, D. C., in which he goes over the same ground covered by. his letter in Tux Stan yesterday and adds: “In the Washington Stax of February 19 I find that Col. ‘Truesdell says his company is ‘-quite willing to extend its tracks to Brook- land.” I can produce testimony,to disprove his statement, of —_ witnesses uite as creditable’ as Col. Truesdell. Less than four months ago Col. Truesdell informed @ committee of ‘gentlemen from Brookland that “Under no circumstances would the com- pany go to Brookland.” Mr. Barton conclude: “Now, Mr. Senator, I wish to ask in justice and fairness to the people from whom’ these rights and privileges are derived without com- pensation of any character, that you attach — to the charter that the company may punished for violations of its provisions. ‘This is the extent of out protest and the sole purpose for which the protests were made. It any other biessings ensue to us in this cofnection, such as road extension, cleaner cars, &c., we shall be thankful for them, and look upon you as our especial guardian in this instance.” Eoeten aera ‘The Market Bridge Fight.
