Representative Dingley of Maine reached Washington last night. He was at the Treasury Department today and had an interview wi Secretary Foster. He is looking remarkably well and appears to be in the best of spirits Speaking with a Star reporter he said: “I do not regard the democratic victory as indicating their permanent success nor as putting an end to protection. I think the republican party and protection will survive the defeat and will be restored to fuli vigor. result of the election was due to several things, but more than anything else to the Homestead strike, and to the fact that the democrats cap- tured the new foreign-born voters by represent- ing to them that the republican party was the party ofmonopoly and wealth and by making STeat promises of benefits to result from demo- cratic success. “That Homestead business did us an immense injury. There was hardly a place where I spoke during the campaign that some oue in the audience did not ery out: ‘How about Homestead.” It was impossible to counteract the effect of that strike. We bad full meetings during the campaign, but we could not get at the foreign-born voters and the people who were influenced by the labor troubles. They would not come.” ‘THE CONGRESSIONAL SITUATION. Speaking of the congressional situation he said: “I do not think that there wil be any- thing of importance done during this session. | ‘The democrats will undertake the revixion of the tariff during the next Congress, but the: will have « difficnit task before them. They | will be divided on the question. Some of them want to ge ahead and carry out the program mapped out by their platform and by their speeches on the stump. Others do not want to go so far; do not want to ga far enough to over- turn the ‘policy of protection. this to fight ont among themselves, and at pres- ent it looks us if the mild protectiomsts had a little the best of it.

Commissioner Simonds Proposes a Pian for Equalizing the Ratings. ‘The marking officers of the department are at their wits’ end to know bow to treat the effi- ciency records in marking for promotion on account of the widely different standards by which the different chiefs mark. Commissioner Simonds of the patent office has devised a method for eliminating the personal equations, which will probably be followed in the patent office and may solve the difficulty for all the departments. It is as follows: First, average the markings of exch division chief and #0 es- average point for that chief; second, the markings of an entire grade ‘hout the offic: point for tha! de; third, move each int of his grade jnst as his chief has him above or below the average point Last Winter's Policy Was Wise and Helpful to the Party. Senator Palmer of Illinois reached Washing- ton last night. He speaks with a great deal of reserve abont the situation. thinks that the policy followed by the demo- the tariff question wise and was helpful to the party during the campaign, and that they | forts at evading | *ould go abead now with the revision of the} tarif. If the democrats can reach an agree-| ment which will be carried out defining just what shall be done at an extra session he is in favor of getting Congress together as soon a8 possible after the new administration comes | into power. He thinks, however, that a protracted extra session, with all’ sorts of on struggling for a place, would be far | jesirable. His idea is that if an agree- | iment could be reached to that purpose it would be a good thing for Congress to meet in the spring to form the committees which will have eof the preparation of the work of the | into the Union the terri- He about he did President Cleveland's cabinet, but that ot think anyone had any information : would ‘be formed.

James Washington, a colored individual, for- getting the example set by the father of his | country, stood on the witness stand in Judge Miller's court this morning and told a story in bis own defense which the judge characterized as deliberate perjury and told the prisoner he had laid himself liable to a sentence in the penitentiary. Jim was charged with ing taken $5 that did not belong to him. He was arrested soon the theft was com- mitted and the money was found on him. Not- withstanding these facts he denied the accusa- tion and swore positively that he did not take the mones. After giving the prisoner some good advice about his reckiess manner of swear- ing Judge Miller gave him sixty days in jail without fine. _— Larceny From # Dead Dog. A young negro uamed Hayes Brent was ac- cused in Judge Miller's court today of having taken a collar end tag from a dead dog that he saw lying in the street. Judge Miller told the boy that it was just as much larceny to take the ilar and tag from a dead dog ay it was to take them from a live animal. Under the circumstances, however, he took the boy's personal bonds and returned the property to the owner. —_ To Set Aside a Deed. Samnel A, Pitts has. by John J.

Inthe report to the international monstary conference yesterday the epecial committee ap- the proposal of Mr. Alfred de Rothschild was extremely interesting and worthy at some time of serious attention. be committee coins below the nominal value of 20 france, and the issue of a silver and paper currency having the same purchasing power as gold coin below 20 francs. It is understood that the delegates | from France, Italy, Belgium, Norway, Sweden and Russia were opposed to the Rothschild plan. The delegates of the Latin union disap- | proved of the pian on account of the opposition | to make 43 pence the maximum purchase price of silver, and refused to be conciliated even when this figure was raised to a higher one. The American delegates are determined to persist in advocating their plans of bimetalism and believe that the conference should remain in session until there has been an ppportunity for thorough discussion Mr. Bertram Currier, using all his influence to bring the conference to an early conclusion, apparently in the inter- est of monometalism. The report of the special committee said that before cor Rothschild, i 3 had tried to clear the way by getting answers from delegates to fonr vital questions. ‘The first question had been: “What measures will the silver-producing countries take to re- strict or regulate production?” Henry W. Cannon had answered that no artificial means of regulating the production of silver existed in the United States and legisla- tion to that end was exceedingly improbable. Deputy Don Jaquin Casasus bad made a similar reply for Mexico. The second question had been: “What are the Prospects regarding the future production of silver’ Casasus had answered that in Mexico the production had reached its maximum, the tax having been reduced from 30 to 734’ per cent. Mr. Cannon had answered that the silver pro- duetion in the United States was confined to six states and three territories. ‘Tie extension of Rocky mountain railways had opened a large number of mines, whose total production, although unknown, hud reached or exceeded the highest previous average, ‘The third question had been: “What is the policy of the United States concerning silver yases?” Mr. Cannon had answered that the democratic and republican parties and the bankers of New York had declared in favor of a repeal of the probability would be repealed if no interna- tional agreement were made at the present con- ference. The fourth question had been: “What is the policy of India in the matter of silver coin- ce? Sir Guilford Molesworth had answered that the only satisfactory solution of the problem as far as he could see would be international bi- metalism, in which India would gladly join the Latin union and the United States. A recommendation for the Kothschild plan was defeated by a vote of seven to six. As re- gards Levy's plan the committee took the action already indicated, with the approval of a large majority, Nevertheless, Sir C. Freemantle, | delegate for Great Britain, declared that he was unable to pledge England to withdraw ber smaller gold coins unless in connection with some such plan as that proposed by Mr. Roths- child. Bertram Currier, delegate for Great Britain, created the first sensation of the conference by making a rather fierce attack on the United States for their attitude toward the silver ques- tion. He denounced the selfish policy of the American government and warned ‘the other delegates against pulling the chestnuts out of to make a scapegoat of Europe, he said, in the conference. He derided the attempt to raise the price of silver in defiance of natural laws and by trivial artificial measures.

Thompson, secretary ofthe World's Fair Sunday Opening Association, has received the following letter from his eminence Cardinal Gibbons of Baltimore: Canprxat's Restpence, November 25, Mr. J. R. Thompson: Respected Sir: A quiet opening of the Chicago fair next year seem to be most desirable. ‘There are many who would be otherwise deprived of the priv: of beholding what promises to be the event of the century. The world’s fair will gather together the most won- derful productions of buman skill and in- genuity, the recults of the evolutions and progress of ages. No one should be prevented ‘rom seeing these works of manandevery oppor- tunity should be afforded. The Sunday closing of this spectacle would be very unfortunate for many thousands of our countrymen who would be tempted to spend the day in dis- sipation. In their name I would favor the opening of the fairon Sunday afternoons to, evening, with the provisions that all machinery should be sgopped and all mechanical and labor- ing work that will not be urgently necessary should cease. In this I do not see any desecra~ tion of the holiness of the day; on the cont: those who will visit the fair on there days will be snrely inclined to raise their minds and hearts to Him who inspired men to produce such things.

STREET IMPROVEMENT IN THE NORTE. The work of opening in the north section of the town streets laid out over a century ago by the executors of John Alexander and named by them from the distinguished Virginians, Madi- son, Pengleton and Wythe, is now’ begun. Ther streets have remained’ until now more seographical expressions for old fields and garden lote, but have of late become a real portion of the town, and building lots on them sell as high as lote in town a few yearsago. Pendleton street is being opened from Royal to Fairfax across the marsh, and street improvements north will soon be made. As enrly as 1852 the city placed in the marsh at Madison street the oarth excavated in the grad- ing of Fairfax street north of Pendleton, but nothing further was done in the line of streot improvement. The new plans will increase twenty-fold the value of the marshy iands in ite neighborhood. NoTES.
