It was a complete over- ture of the former party to turn over the 6,000,000 maxrks for Aistribution among the clericals, Dr. Van Gossler, Prussian minister of ccclesinstical affairs, defended the plan of restitution, The direct payment of the ac cumulated capital to the priests interested was, he says, impossible, and a pro rata distribution to the diocese of the amount confiscated would be the most direct method, while the fact that the commission of superuision was comnosed of priests aud laymen out to be a guaranjeoof the fairn of the restitution. So far asthe debate pro gressed the nat.onal liberals and conserva: tives were grouped agaiust the bill and the centor and freisinnige parties in its favor.

NEw Youk, Jan. 24.—[Special Telogram to Puk: Bee. ] —The subject of Iinglish invest- ments o American enterpises is comir g to the front egiin with the new year. Th English public recovers so quickly from any flnancial back-set that prowaoters, who take enterprises to London to secure funds to operatethem, are calculating on placing a great many schemes in London this spring after the English public has forgotten or got over the Barings failure. The disasters - curred by the roseate picture of the Argen- tine Republic, as drawn by the Bariugs, has undoubtedlyinelined fnvestors to ook toward the United States again and the tendency is avy | tolook for something besides railroad stocks and boads, with which Englishmen have been several times overloaded and ofteusadly deceived.

He says that the land ofiice is now propared to enter- tain the question of these resurveys, an ox- amination having been made by a special agent, and funds are nowavailablo to pay the es of the proposed work. Commis- sioner Groft says further: “Baforo taking further action in the matter of awarding con- tracts for resurveys in Grant county it is deemed essential that apolications from all of the settlers in each township praying for theresurvey thereof and agrecing to abide by the same shall be submitted to this oMice as early as practicable. Bach peti- tion should also be accompanied by the cer- tificate of the proper county oficer, attesting to the fact that the petitioners ropresent all of the settlers in the townshipor show by the countv records. Grant county embraces townships 21 to 24, inclusive, north, 83 to 40, inclusive, west, making thirty-two townships, In December, 1889, an examina. tion was made of the official record of entries and filings on lands in saia township and th were found to aggregate nelusive of a few indemnity sclections. In view of the apparent large number of settlers in said townships it is evident that the existing regulations woverning resurveys should be complicd with to the end that the dissatisfac- tion and conscquent protests which have herctofore attended resurveys in the state of of Kausasand Colorado may be avoided, if possible, 1 have therefore the honor to re- quest theoffice address of your correspon d ents, Regarding the resurveys desived in your letter of March 1, 1890, vou state that you are duly recelving ' peiitions and letters from ~ citizens of = McPherson, Grant, and Arthur counties iu reference to aresurvey of that section, It is also requested that the petitions originally enclosed in your letter dated Jan. 13, 1810, be aguin submitted for further consideratic suggestions that may facilivate the cir culation of petitions for the signatures of the settlers in the several townships to the end that existing official regulations shall be mplied with, and the work of resurvey initiated with the opening of the surveying season will be appreciated.’? If the settlers in the counties named want to take the steps indicated it will be advis- able for them to address the commissioner of the general land office airectly upon the subject, MiS. IARRISON SUFFERING FROM A COLD. A large number of people who called at the white house this afternoon were disappointed in not sceing Mrs. Harrison, who was to have h usual Saturday reception, Mrs, Harrison is_suffering from a severe cold, which has affected her throat somewhat, and in consequence she was obliged to abandon her reception. A memorandum was sent out by the president about noon to this effect and ‘word was immediately telephonea to the “various hotels in order to prevent vis- itors from going to the white bouse usclessly, There was quite o crowd at the doos 3 o'clock, however, and word was given to the ushers to throw open_the house to thecallers. Mrs, McKoe and M Russell Harrison were in the parlors to rep. resent Mrs.. Harrison and receive any per- sons who might go through the rooms. Mrs. J. N. Huston, who was to have assisted Mrs. Harrison, was also present. Mrs. Harrison's indisposition is not at all serious, although sufliciently severeto prevent her' standing for two bours and receiving a long line of calle During the past month there has been a curious succession of ills at the white house, all with the same symptoms of a cold and a throat affection. Mrs, Harrison, Mrs, Mc- Kee, Mrs, Russell Harrison, all of the chil- dren and two of the nurses ha at various times been afflicted in the same way. Great care has been taken with the children, for fear of contagion, but it has been concluded by those at the mausion that the household is merely eeuting its share of what appears tobe a mild epidemic of diphtheriete cold. All of the cases have been overcome and Mrs, Harrison's cold, it is expected, will give way ina day or so. The attention’ of the pul to the unhealthy condition of the white house has again been called by these illuesses, THE OPPOSITION TO THE ELECTIONS BILL. In the senate today Messrs, Gray of Dela- ware and Vest of Missouri quotea the lead- ing republican newspapers of the country in opposition tothe elections bill. They declared that the newspapers of the country that faily vepresent the lwople and wield an_in- fluence were opposed to this measure. It is improbable that a more determined or skill- ful fight was ever made in congress than is being waged against the elections bill, It is always easier to'obstruct than to promote legislation in congress, but when a major- ity are carnestly in favor of & weasure and determinied to put it through to the exclusion of everything else, opposition must give way sooner or later. There is a great difference, however, in the ways of obstructing, There isa great contrast be- tween the violentand noisy methods some times followed in the house and the quiet, subtle and decorous play for delay which has been witnessed in the senate under the man- agement of Mr. Gorman. Throughout tho tight, since the first Monday in December, there hus been & most orderly filibuster strong language being used in the denuncia® tion of the measure under consideration, but the most marked courtesy being maintained between the senators personally. While evorybody has known that it was a filibuster, there has been but little external evidence of the fact. There has been the appearance of honest und earnest discussion, with no other ct in view than a thorough ventilation of the subject. Mr. Hoar has been on the ug- gressiveand more difficult side of the fight, besides having au unpopular cause. More: over, while Mr. Gorman has the earnest sup- port of every member of his party, all ready 1w sucrifice anything to defeat the force bill, Mr. Hoar has had to work almost alone often aud has boen ooliged to contend against both secret and open opposition withia and out- side s party, His chief active supportin the fight has come from Spooner and p\f ch, together with the tremendous efforts made in behalf of the measure by President Harrison. Mr. Gorman is perpetually sought by news. paper men_ who want *“inside information,” and he talks with them all pleasantly and confidentially _without giving them any information. Some timesone who is radi- cally wrong in his interpretation of a move will be given g hint to that effect, but he is left to his “own wits to work out the truth. Gorman tukes few peo- plo into his confidence, and many Who take commands from him do so on faith, not knowing just the reasou for them. Tt fight will go down into histoty as & memor- able one, but it is the honest conviction of a reat many republicans that the bill will not hecorne & law and that it will fail of passage in one or the other house, MISCELLANEOUS, Mr. Andrew Rosewater loft tonight for Omabia, Ho will stopon his way in Chicago for & day and will be back in Washington in | ten days, Dr. A.
