2 MOST WORK ALL II WEEK. I THE WEEKLY TELEGRAPH: FEBRUARY 25, 1895. XTPLOYES OF THE SOUTHERN Made The Senate Will Find Little Time for Talking About Anything Ex cept Appropriations. NIGHT SESSIONS SOW IN ORDER ji short Rkmi on Sunday Will Bo All tho Time fire Senate Will Hare During the Ween-The Situ ation In the Hour*. "Washhistory, Feb. 21.—The situation In tho sona'te today Is not more critical than It has boon In the closing days of previous short session of congress. There Is tlmo tn tvhloh to dispose of all the ponding appropriation bills unless a deliberate effort is made to defeat some of flbem. No such contingency is deemed likely to arise. There Is, however, no time to spare, for the Ibusloos* to be brought forward during the present week is of great Importance and is bound So lead to debate that may run through day amt night until the session ends. There are but throe of the thirteen great appro priation ibllls that have received the approval of the executive. Six are in conference and In, some Instances -there are radical points of difference be tween the houses involved. Chief among these Is the diplomatic bill, which carries the senate appropriation of $500,000 for the commencement of the worS of laying a cable between this country aim the Hawaiian Island*. Tho house, by a format vote, has re fused t.o agree .to this amendment ond the senate, by a good majority, has directed its managers to Insist upon It. Some senators are so impressed with the importance of this proposi tion that they say they are willing to permit tho whole bill to fill rather than allow the amendment to be stricken out. On the other hand, Mr, Blackburn, one of the senate conferees, ia authority for the statement that the •president would veto the whole meas ure if It were left In itho bill. The In dian appropriation bill which went to conference yesterday will be a matter bard to manage, for the seriate has en grafted much new legislation in it. Four of the appropriation bills still ro- malu to be acted upon, tho sundry civil bill having been made the nnfln- ished business for tomorrow morning. This is one of the most important of tho appropriation bills. The amend ment reported by tho appropriation committee providing for .the Issue of treasury certificates to meet the cur rent expels** of the treasury will be antagonized by tho silver men. (Mir. Mills’ proposed amend ment, of which ho has given notice, rfipe-al.ng authority ter the !«ue of bonds In the future wtU also be op posed by those who look upon the au thority found lu the resumption act as the only barrier between the (treas ury and a sliver basis. The sundry civil blU also carries tho senate nnieixl- ment appropriating for tho payment of sugar bounty eerutxl prior to tho ou- ootment of the new tutriff law, a mat ter involving the expemMture of be tween four ami five million dollars. This one Item, it is thought, will fur nish a heavy stumbling block for the conference commlntec*. The next bills In order will be the legislative, execu tive and Juddal naval appropriation bills. The friends of the navy will en deavor to see to It that the 1 three battle ships provldnl for In the bill as re ported from tho house nre not dis turbed. A majority of tho senate ap propriation committee* are said to bo against the construction of the rhreo strip*, amt they make a report reduc ing the number snd thus precipitate n fight. Advocates of the battle ships will have the unanimous support of the sonata naval committees which In- domed the bltl as It passed the house. Night sessions will be tho order of this week. Tho senate will 1>ogin on Tuesday, when unobjected bills will be taken up for action. There is a probability that on Hminlay, March 2. the senate may remain In session all night, taking a recess for a few hoars only during the middle of tho day on Sunday. No progtalmile in* boon niT.iuged for the last week of the house, and, under existing conditions, none can bo out lined In advance. Tho general defi ciency appropriation bill ts still undis posed of and the manager of that mwisure (Mr. Itrrdktnrtdge) will doubt- lea, contest with Chairman Hoard-of tho committee on affairs of :tho District of Columbia far the right of Way to morrow. Under the roles, the District committee Is entitled to the day, hut the exigencies of tho Merton will prob ably Induce tho house to proceed with tho deficiency bill, yielding to the Dis trict another day If It shall be Ttoslred by Mr. Heard and hts committee. Beginning with Tuewlay, It will be In ordT In the house to move tho sus pension of the' rules and the passage thereunder of any bill on the calendar at any tlmo until tho expiration of the session. But the rule can bo made ef fective only by the co-operation of the speaker, whose acquiescence must be Kx-ured before the member c«a» be sure of gittlng recognition. So far Speaker Crisp appears to have made no promises In that regard. Thera Is, of course, tremendous procure brought to txvur upon tho speiker and the com mittee on rules for onion* to permit tho consideration of special measures, but no agreement has been entered Into. The Indications are that, with the .exception of some private* bills, for whirh ccseldemtlon may be hod by unanimous oonseig, no further legisla tion will he wr*tampli*hed at this ses sion save the appropriation Mils. Neatly nil of throe now or will be In the course of a week In conference, and the eonddenatlon of tho reports on these will occupy the greater portion of the week. Caniitmfu low Striljr rar#t.

Dolph. ballot Clest^n of Columbia county, a Dolph man, arose and presented the name of Mr. McBride. The Immense throng In attendance Immediately gave cheer after cheer for McBride. As the roll call progressed It became evident that (McBride would be elected. When he received the forty-fifth vote, which wns necessary to elect, bedlam broke loose. All the RepubUoans began to change their votes, and when the call was completed Mr. McBride received the full Republican vote of seventy- two votes. A committee was Imme diately appointed to escort Mr. Mc Bride before the Joint assembly. He made a brief speech, thanking the legislature for his election. It was a narrow escape from <i dead lock, for had the election been delayed fifteen minutes longer the time for sine die adjournment would have arrived George w. McBride, senator-elect. Is 41 years of age, a native son of Ore gon. and a lawyer by profession. He lias served In the state legislature nnd held the office of secretary of Btate for pkrht years, going out of office last January. Mr. McBride has never been Identified with the silver or anti-silver element, nor Was he ever been In a po- Hltlon where he was obliged to make a record on the question. Inasmuch as he was elected by Dnlph’s supporters It Is reaa nable to suppose he will not ally himself with the silver people. TIRED OF I.OSING MONET. Sullivan's Jacksonville Drunk May Have Been Premeditated. Savannah, Ga„ Fob. 24.—There Is soma reason to believe that Sullivan's recent eacnpado In Florida was n premeditated affair and not the result of a passion for drink.

On Aug. 4,1831, another boy was born unto us. At tho age of two months he became afflicted with the eamo disease. I believed the boy's trouble was constitutional, and not common sore mouth.
