CAPITAL CITY CHAT, Speculation Rife Concerning the Fifty-first Congress, * THE ORGANIZATION OF THE HOUSE. The Speakership Lies Between Reed and MeKinley-—Maj. Carson Slated for Clerk. Opinions of Members on Impending Legistation=—Civil Service, Trusts, the Tariff and Fisheries Dispute Will Com | mand Attention, WasniNaroy, Oct. 21,—As members elect to the Fifty-first congress reach the city gossip respecting the organiza- of the next house of representatives ma- terially increases, © consensus of | opinion among members elect ow here indicates that the speakership will go wither to Maine (Mr. Reid), or Ohio (Mr. MoKinley). Messrs, Burroughs, of Michigan, and Cannon of Illinois, are both on the ground, however, and it is said, will at least make the contest in- teresting before balloting begins, At this writing it would be a very difficult undertaking to pick out the stronger candidate from the first two named, The Minor Offices. Maj. John M. Carson, of The Phila- delphia Ledger, appears to have already | practically captured the clerkship of the next hou e. In his modest way Maj. Carson has been working all summer, and it is claimed by his friends that he | has pledges sufficient to elect on the | first ballot, Col. Swords appears to have no rival for the position of sergeant-at-arms, while there are several candidates for the offices of doorkeeper and postmaster, | Pusiness of the Session. There are not many senators and rep- sentatives in Washington now, but most of those here expect a very interesting and busy session of congress during the coming winter. The tariff, trusts, the | civil service law, the interstate com- | merce law, the educational question, a mational election law and subsidies will be among the subjects that will engage the attention of congress, What are recognized as the great ques- tions of the day will, for the most part, be presented as party measures and are likely to render the coming session a very important one. Senator Dolph's Forecast. Senator Dolph thinks Congress will take no step backward in the matter of interstate commerce or civil service re- | form. Whatevet Smetidinents arg made | to either will be for the purpose of erad- | icating defects ol by experience, and to make them more effective, The race question, he says, will un- doubtedly be discussed in connection with the contested election cases and in- tly of them. It is a live ques- tion and will not down at any bidding. He feels confident that the tariff will be revised and the source of the revenue diminished. Some measure not very Missimilar to the senate bill will be . It is possible, be thinks, that | some bill upon the subject of trusts will | be 4 ut the sub _cct must betdealt | with in the main, the senator by | the states. The pow. r of pond yh A this subject is so limit: d as to render of little value any law which it may to prevent or control trusts in the states, Revenne Revision Probable. Congressman Browne, of Indiana, | thinks a revision of the revenue system the most important question awaiting the action of congress. and favors a re- | peal of the tax on tobacco and alcohol used in the arts and a reduction of the tax on sugar, “Something will prolably be done re- | garding the seal fisheries, and also the | Canadian fishery dispute. These ques- tions, however, will not divide the par- ties. 1 have no doubt there will be some amendment to tic interstaté com- merce law, and congress will unques- tionably legislate on the subject of trusts, if it is possible to define a trust, in such a way as not to interfere with legitimate business.” Congressman Hitt Conservative, Congressman Hitt, of Illinois, thinks it rather too early to make any predic- tions about what congress will do at the coming session. No conference of even the most informal kind has yet been Bild, so that 0 means of judgin what other members are consi 2 f to be had. Then the shifting of opinion on many important ts is so likely that al gment now is not very apt to hold when actual on questions begins in February and h. Something in the way of amendatory legislation to the interstate commerce law may be expected. As to the civil service law too many congressmen of both parties are to its support to allow of its . The subject of trusts will probably be involved in the discussion of the tariff, which will of course come up next session. The Bentilee Horror.

The work of mutilation has been done b the hand of an expert who, if not Jac the Ripper, imitated him closely, The victim was one of the class of une | fortunates, the quarter in which the | crime was committed was a disreputable one, and there are other circumstances to lead to the fear that the woman butcher of London has transferred his | operations to this city.
