AMENDING THE BILL
Cleveland's Plan Being Touched
Up In Committee.
SILVKR MES EXPECT ITS DEATH.
They Think the Sliver Senator Will Kill
It With Talk Republican Co-Operate
With Administration Democrats Senate
Coiniuittee Accomplishes Nothing.
Washington. Jan 30. The honso
committee on banking and currency
Hpmit the session in debating the new
administration bill, went through it by
sections, adopted three important
amendments and adjourned, leaving
two amendments to be acted on. Chair
man Pprinper says that the committee
will be able to report the amended bill
to the house today. Republican mem
bers say that the plan will be in com
mittee two or three days longer, but all
a;ree that it will be reported to the
house in time, although materially
changed from the original plan, since
the Republicans are disposed to co
ojierate with the administration Demo
crats. There was some sparring for
points in the committee, and a general
disposition to engraft personal schemes
upon the measure, but as a whole the
proceedings were unusually free from
partisansniD.
Chairman Springer has not yet de
cided how much time he will ask the
committee on rule to give for debate
The bill is a privileged one and can be
called up at any time. Accordingly, the
California Democratic members, who
are fighting the Reilly Pacific railroad
bill very bitterly, are urging Mr.
Springer to report the financial measure
today, if possible, and displace the
Reilly bill. -The action of the house
upon the amended bill seems to depend
upon the Repnblicans, who hold the
balance of power. How far the amend
ments will placate the opposition, re
mains to be seen, but it is conceded that
the chances of the measure are mnch
better in the house than in the senate.
Its opponents are largely dejieuding up
on the free silver senators to talk
it to death, as they may be able to do in
a body which has no rule by which it
can fix a day for a vote.
Of the three amendments to the bill
adopted, the first, proposed by Hangen
(Rep., Wis.), reduces the tax upon the
circulation from 1 per cent per annum
to one-fourth of 1 per cent, payable
semi annually. The second, proposed
by Walker (Rep., Mass.), strikes out th6
fifth section of the bill, that requiring
import duties to be paid in gold. The
vote upon it was: Yeas. 6; nays, 4.
The other amendment adopted strikes
out the words "fifty years after date"
and makes the bonds "payable at the
pleasure of the United States after ten
years from the date of issue.' Thispro
posal to shorten the bond term met
with nearly unanimous approval.
When the committee adjourned, two
amendments were pending to be acted
niicn. toe, offered by Mr. Rape 11
(Rep.), stipulates that the retirement
and cancellation of legal tenders for
e.ich month shall not be greater than
the increase in amount of national bank
not, under the operation of the plan
This amendment was carried when first
offered, and then there was a successful
motion to reconsider and postpone action
for a day.
Representative Walker stands sponsor
for the other pending amendment, which
is to require one-half of the reserve
funds of the banks to be held in gold
coin or gold certificates, the other half
in silver coin or silver certificates. Ten
per cent of the reserve is to be held in
this stipulated form on July 1, 1895; 20
per cent at the end of three months; the
change being made at the rate of 10 per
cent a quarter until completed. The
discussion upon this amendment hinged
on the point whether forcing the banks'
to secure gold for deposits would not
cause a greater demand upon the treas
ury for gold than the raids which are
now in progress.
The proceeding of the senate finance
committee meeting were based upon a
bill which had been prepared by Senator
Voorhees. This bill provided simply
for the issuance of short time certificates
which were to be used for the purpose
of making good the reserve and of
meeting the revenue deficiency, but
when the afternoon session opened he
had added a clause providing for the
free coinage of silver. There was a
motion to strike out the silver provision,
which w:is lost on a tie vote of 5 to 5,
all the Republican members and Senator
MoPherson (Dem.) voting for the motion
and all the Democrats opposing it. A
ot was then taken on the proposition
as a whole and it wum lost by a vote of
7 to 3, Senators Vest and White, as well
as McPhersou, voting with the Repub
licaus. There was also a tie vote on a
motion by Senator Aldrich to substitute
the Springer bill for the Voorhees bill
SUGAR SCHEDULE .REPEAL
eanty-Paylng Countries Dont Have to
Fay the Differential.
Washington, Jan. 30. A special
order was invoked in the house to bring
the bill to repeal the one-teuth of 1 cent
differential duty imposed by the new
tariff law on sugars imported by bounty
paying countries aud it was passed
without amendment by a vote of
to Si.
A series of amendments, two offered
by Mr. Hepburn and Mr. Hopkins, look
ing to retaliation in case Germany re
fused to admit our meat products after
the differential; one bv Mr. Hitt (Ills.),
to repeal the one-eighth differential on
refined sugar; one by Mr. Dingley (Me.),
to provide that this act should not be
construed to mean that the United
States surrendered the right undet
treaties containing favored nation
clauses, to effect bounties by the im
position of equivalent differential duties,
and tine by Mr VanVoorhis (X. Y.), to
plaoe all sngar. raw and refined, on the
free list, were lost by practically strictly
party votes
The debnt-; was of nn interesting
character and at times very spirited
It touched qnite esten-ivoly on the
treasury situ.rtvm and the remedies to
be applied. Mr. Diunley (Me.) made n
long statement of the receipts and e
peuditurts to show that the treasury
was suffering from lack of revenue and
that the tirt duty of the government
was to Increase the receipts of the treas
ury Mr. Reed took a similar new of
the situation, which was again denied
by Mr. Wilson ( W. Va.). The attempts
to amend the bill by repealing the othet
portions of the sugar duty were opposed
by Mr. Wilson on the ground that if
the bill was loaded down with amend
ments it would surely meet its doom in
the senate.

section, there were grave doubts as
to our ability to do as e claimed
to do sell a first class, fully
eiuiped and guarantead Machine
at aUml half the prices charged by
regular Sewing Machine dealers.
Buying Sewing Machines at dry
goods prices was new and novel
to the ie)ple, but they've displayed
their ituelligence by coming here iu
literal numbers and securing a Rival
for their use.

Complaints
Notwithstanding the large mini
ler of Rival Sewing Machines
which we have placed iu the homes
of Altoona jHtiple, we have a clean
record so far as romplaiuts are con
cerned. Buyers run no risk. We will re
fund the purchase money if any
Machine proves unsatisfactory.
We wouldn't want to sell you a
Sewing Machine any more than any
other article that would not give
you satisfaction.

Constipation
Demands prompt treatment. The re
sults of neglect may be serious. Avoid
all harsh and drastic purgatives, the
tendency of which is to weaken the
bowels. The best remedy Is Ayer'a
I'll Is. Being purely vegetable, their
action is prompt aud their effect always
beneficial. They are an admirable
Liver and After-dinner pill, and every
where endorsed by the profession.
" Ayer's Pills are highly and univer
sally spoken of by the people about
here. I make daily use of liicin in my
practice." Dr. I. E. Fowler, Bridge
port, Conn.
" I can recommend Ayer's Pills above
all others, having long proved their
value as a cathartic for myself and
family." J. T. Hess, LeitLsville, Pa.
For several years Ayer'9 Pills have
been used in uiy family. We find them
All
Effective Remedy
for constipation and indigestion, and
are never without them in the house."
Moses Greuier, Lowell, Mass.
" I have used Ayer's Pills, for liver
troubles and indigestion, during many
years, and have always found thetu
prompt and efficient in their action."
L. N. Smith, L'tica, N. Y.
" I suffered from constipation which
assumed such an obstinate form that I
feared it would cause a stoppage of the
bow els. Two Ihixcs of Ayer's Pills ef
fected a complete cure." D. Burke,
Saco, Me.
" I hare tised Ayer's Pills for the past
thirty years and consider tlietii an in
valuable family medicine. I know of
no letter remedy for liver troubles,
and have always found I hem a prompt
cure for dj-pewia." James Quinn, SO
Middle st., Hartford, Conu.
Having Wen troubled with costive
ness, which seems inevitable with er
sotis of sedentary habits, I have tried
Aver's Pills, hoping for relief. 1 am
cla.l to sat that tliev have served me
belter than any oilier medicine. I
arrive at tins conclusion only after a
faithful trial of their merits." Samuel
T. Jones. Oak si.. Uusluu, Mass.
