Senator X.odg:e Explains the Monroe Doii- trine—Amendments to the Boase Bills Proposed—Chairman Dinsley Predicts a Short Session of Coofirress. WASHiHGTOiir, Dec. 31.—The com mit tees of the senate passed into the control of the Republicans. The change in the political complexion of the committees was effected by the adoption of a resolu tion organizng the committees as agreed to by the Republican and Democratic steering committees. The Populists, w ith the exception of Mr. Kyle of South Dako ta, declined to vote, and the Republicans, having a plurality of the senate, were thus enabled to adopt the resolution by a vote of 30 to S8. Mr. Kyle voted with the Democrats a g a inst the reorganization. A two hour debate followed the adop tion of the resolution, the purpose of which was m a inly political.' The Demo crats, under the leadership of Senator Dorman, seconded by Senator H a rris,’at tem pted to show th a t the organization was effected by an alliance between the Republicans and Populists, contending th a t the silence of the latter, by m a k ing possible the reorganization, indicated ac quiescence. They also insisted th a t the Republican assumption of control saddled them w ith responsiiblity for legislation. The Populists, led by Senator Allen of N ebraska and Senator Butlei' of North Carolina, denied th a t they were in any fashion responsible for the result. The Republicans, under the leadership of Sen ator Mitchell, chairm an of the Republic an steering committee, and assisted by Senators Hoar, Hale, Allison and Chan dler, combatted the argum e n t of the Dem ocrats by asserting most emphatically th a t the Populists had even refused to make any suggestions as to their commit tee assignments, and had, as a m a tter of fact, been left by the reorganization in the positions to which they had been as signed under the Democratic control of the senate. The Republicans strongly protested also against being held respon sible for legislation. Bodge Spea&s on Monroe Doctrine, Henry Cabot Dodge, the senator from Massachusetts, who has made a brilliant reputation as an historical biographer, de livered an address on the Monroe doc trine. He treated it from an historical standpoint and gave an exhaustive sketch of the origin and progress of the dispute over the Venezuela boundary. Although tem perate in language, he took the ground th a t unless we Insisted that Yenezpela’s dispute w ith Great B ritain should be sub m itted to friendly arbitration, we would surrender the essence, spirit and vital principle of the Monroe doctrine, which, he contended, was as essential to the safety and welfare of the Americas as the bal ance of power was to the safety and wel fare of European nations. A fter Mr. Lodge’s speech in the senate Mr. M itchell (Rep.) of Oregon offered his resolution in relation to select committees of the senate, and it was agreed to. This was followed by the offering, also by Mr. Mitchell, of a resolution providing for the reorganization by the Republicans of the standing and select committees of the senate from and after dan. 1, 1896. The proposed committee membership was read at the clerk’s desk. The resolution nam ing the committee membership was agreed to—-yeas, SO; nays, S8. The Populists declined to vote. The house bill as to bonds was laid be fore the senate, read twice and referred to the finance committee. Bills and Amendments Introduced. Mr. Jones ^of A rkansas presented an am endm ent which he proposes to offer to the house bond bill. It provides th a t any holder of silver bullion who is a citizen of the U n ited States may tender the same t& the secretary of the treasury and have it coined into silver dollars, the seigniorage to be the difference between the coinage value and the m a rket price of the bullion In New Y o rk; for the cancellation of all bank notes of less than $10; directing the secretary of the treasury to coin the silver bullion in the treasury into silver dollars, to be used in redeeming the treasury notes issued for the purpose of purchasing sil ver bullion under the Sherman act, and for the redemption of the greenbacks in either gold or silver and for their reissue according to the provisions of the act of 1878. Mr. Squire gave notice of an am end m e n t to the house tariff bill, fixing the duty on coal a t 75 cents per ton in lieu of the present duty, and Senator Shoup an am endm ent increasing the duty on silver lead ores to IJ^ cents per pound and on pig lead to 3 cents. Mr. Chandler introduced a bill to en large the interstate commerce commis sion, which was referred to the committee on interstate commerce. Mr. Allen, at the request of Mr. Thurs ton, introduced a bill prohibiting the Is suance of bonds by the United States un less congress shall by resolution declare the necessity for them. On Mr. M ills’ motion the senate went into executive session. Before the dobra were closed, however, Mr. Cockrell called attention to the fact th a t the 11 commit tees nom inally left in the possession of the m inority but one had a Democratic m ajority. He also introduced a joint res olution for an adjournm ent today until Tuesday next. No. More House Tariff ILegUlation. There will be no more tariff legislation by the lower house of congress in this ses sion, If the business interests of the country have been fearful th a t the exist ing conditions would be disturbed by any new revision of the tariff rates or any un certainty caused by efforts to re-enact the McKinley law or change the Wilson act In the direction of h igher duties, their ap prehensions may be set at rest by the statem e n t made._by Chairman Dingley of the ways and means committee. Mr. Dingley said very positively th a t he was sure the Republicans, would not a ttem p t any Im p o rtant tariff changes, now th a t the revenue bill had passed the house, and th a t his opinion b n this point was given irrespective of w h ether or not the revenue tariff bill passed last week was successful in the senate or received the president’s signatura There are Republican members of the ways and means committee who think th a t the house should p u t itself on record on the tariff by a comprehensive bill, even if Jt be jtoreseen th a t such a bill could nevepr o w m e a law« bat this sentimenti has trlaibly weakened on the Republican Bide of the house since the beginning of the session. I t is probable ihht these teembers will defer to the views of Cbair- taaan Dingley, parftloulnvly m Speaker Reed, whose n earest adviser Mr. D lnglej is, holds the same opinion In opposltioo to attem p ts at tariff bills in this session, as was learned from a source very close tc Mr. Reed. Mr. Dingley considers it a foregone conclusion that President Cleve land would veto any comprehensive bill for a higher tariff, so the house leaders think it would be a waste of tim e and ef fort for the house to a ttem p t to pass such a bill and launch it upon a career of in term inable debate in the senate, to be fol lowed by protracted settlem ents of differ ences between the two houses. Dingley Predicts a Short Session. Mr. Dingley thinks that the Republic ans generally desire to make the session a short one, and that their efforts will be tc that end. Ke mentions the Pacific rail roads and the bankruptcy questions as the most probable subjects of legislation by this session apart from the regular appro priation bills. It is hoped th a t the appro priation bills may be passed by the house in four or five months. The senate may dispose of them very soon thereafter and adjournm ent follow as soon as they are out of the way. In the meantim e the house may occupy itself with some bill to establish a uniform system of bankruptcy and another to a d just the relations of the government and the Paciflo railroads, both of which failed of settlem ent in the last cong^ress. Chairman H u ll of the house committee on m ilitary affairs is very hopeful that apian for the reorganization of the arm y — something on the lines of Secretary La m e n t and General Miles’ recommenda tions—may be adopted before the session ends. The recent war flurry, he thinks, will tend to induce congress t a give great er a ttention to the arm y than it has been disposed to for some time and impress upon legislators the desirability of not postponing action until some tim e when it may be found necessary to effect a hu r ried arm y reorganization in the face of an enemy. ^ The committee, on banking and cur rency is am bitious to do something in the way of remodeling the financial system, and Chairman Walker has well defined financial views which he would like to put to the test of practice, but so many different opinions on every branch of finance are held by the house, senate and executive that the powers th a t may be counted on discourage attem p ts to en ter upon w h at they consider a hopeless task. Incidental to the session there will be many discussions of foreign policies, but the leaders are hoping that the Ven ezuelan Imbroglio will not take any turn th a t will protract the sitting of congress. They are particularly desirous to have congress adjourn before the two political conventions, so that members can attend the conventions and, so that congress will not be utilized more than it usually is for campaign speeches. All the a rgum ents of the house leaders are for a short session, anid all their efforts will be directed to that end. __________________ TRAINS IN COLLISION. Two Men Killed and Several Injured In a W rscli In Ohio. ClXCDfTNATi, Dec. 31.—Two passenger trains collided on the Baltim ore and Ohio Southwestern railway near Coal City, 14 miles from Cincinnati. They were the Louisville express and the St. Louis ac commodation. Firem an Wilson of the Louisville ex press and an unknow n m an ware killed, the latter being buried under the wreck. The following were injured: Firem an H erm an B runing of the St. Louis train sustained cuts on leg, skull and shoulder; very dangerously hurt. Jacob Bauer of the big copper shop in Lawrenceburg, Ind., hip dislocated, log, arm and head out and bruised. Alonzo Pruett, engineer of the Louis ville express, internal injuries, left arm badly cut and gashed. Jam e s Gabriel, engineer of the St. Louis train, back and side injured. He was taken to his brother’s home in Oleves, O. Fred Binekamp of Aurora, a passenger, severe scalp wounds. T. M. Voight, express messenger on St. Louis train, internal injuries besides bad outs and bruises. He called deliriously for his wife. He was left a t Coal City. Express Messenger Eisenborn of the Louisville express, very slightly; able to go home. It is feared th a t B runing, Bauer and P r u e tt will die. The cause of the accident was the fail ure of the operator a t Sorrs Station, w ith in the city limits, to report to the Louis ville train an order to w ait a t Delhi and let the St. Loqis traip pass it there. The trains, when they sighted each oth er, were going a t full speed, and had but little tim e to alow up before the colllsioh. The road is comparatively straight a t this point, otherwise the casualty would have been terrific. Minister Peak Starts For Switzerland. KAsrsAS C ity , Deo. 30.—-John L.

They hired a cottage in the coun try and an old woman to attend on them. From the moment they entered the door until the time for departure came they were never seen, and the vil lagers naturally concluded that there was some mystery connected with them. Some even thought of consulting the po lice on the subject. On their way back to the railway station they called on the vicar to give him a trifle for his chari ties and explained the secret. They were nurses and had spent their whole time in bed. Accustomed to sleep in such snatches as they could get, their notion of a holiday was a period of long and undisturbed repose.—London Standard.

A dog fancier ouce took exception to Professor Huxley’s assertion that ‘'one of the most curious peculiarities of the dog mind was its inherent snobbishness, shown by the regard p a id to external re spectability. The dog who barks furious ly at a beggar will let a well dressed man pass him without opposition.” He said that, in fact, only dogs of well dressed persons act so. Dogs accustomed to men in rags bark, not at beggars, but at persons clothed in sleek broadcloth. —Chicago Chronicle.
