Young King Alphonso, of Spain, calmly

little fellow, for he is not likely to be
kissed as much as infants not of royal blood.

The only monarch in the world of whom ab
solutely nothing disagreeable is said, His
Majesty, King Alphonso, of Spain, is get
ting on toward his third birthday, and pre
parations for the event are being made and
written about, though it is several months
off. A great many industrious writers and
correspondents continue to pour out informa
tion regarding this important baby. One
full-grown scribbler declares with the ut
most seriousness that the little King is mod
est and unassuming and gives no thought to
his exalted position or his future destiny.
A truly remarkable thing in a boy 30
months old.
It seems, too, that his Ion; list of names,
nnd the fact that he is officially known as
the well-beloved son of the Pope, brother of
all gentlemen who wear crowns, and cousin
to all Spanish grandees, has not inflated
him with pride. The principal misfortune
of his lite appears to be that he has no one
play with him. Ifo child could be allowed
to plav with him, unless it were old enough
to understand how careful it would have to

play with the King.
The hardest work to which this young
monarch is subjected is that of receiving his
ministers, dignitaries of state, generals,
grandees and so forth, while sitting on the
throne in his nurse's Ian, a ceremony which
entails his sitting still while all these things
pass be ore him. At Wednesday's recep
tion 2,000 great men of various kinds tnrned
up to see the King and bow to him.
One precious advantage which this royal
baby has over ordinary ones, and which
cannot be exaggerated, is that everybody
who comes along and admires his yellow
curls has not the right to kiss him.
PLAliNG A SURE GAME.
Baron Rothschild's Way of Betting at Monte
Carlo Very Tantalizing.
fBT CABLE TO THE DISPATCH.
London, Janury 26. The Dishatch
correspondent tells of many great or re
markable persons now disporting themselves
at Monte Carlo. The most interesting of
all is Baron Adolphe de Rothschild, a gen
tleman, who it appears produced a trying
effect on the nerves of the croupiers and the
onlookers generally. When our very rich
man, Mr. Vanderbilt, was there he disap
pointed the folk by not playing as he
should have done, but at least he put down
as much as fiat a time and risked all in
one fell swoop, win or lose. Bothschild,how
erer, begins with SI on a certain color, and
plays doubling up until he wins, marching
off happy with his five-franc profit when it
comes to him.
A curious fact.and one of which is looked
upon as evidence of providential interfer
ence in Bothschild's favor, is that he never
loses at this game of doubling, which, with
the limit system, has often proved fatal to
others. The Baroness, his wife, a very
clever and homely woman, has constantly
appeared in a billicock hat, and surprised
the inhabitants ot Monaco by refusing to be
present at a grand concert on the ground
that she had no hat suitable to wear. Some
funny people made an effort to get up a sub
scription in the Baroness' behalf, but the
thing fell through.

There will not, however, be very much in

A LITTLE LESS DECOLLETE DRESS
Liable to be One of the Features
of tho
Queen's Drawing Room.
(Br CABLE TO TUB DISPATCH. 1
London, January 26. The first drawing
room is announced for February 26, and
there is great excitement among the young
English girls just out who have to be pre
sented and among American women of all
kinds except the most sensible kind. The
dressmaking for the event is well under
way, ana very severe praying is being done
that no sudden mourning may afflict her
Majesty's family between now and the 26th,
and so compel all those whom the Queen is
to receive to turn up in black.
The Queen has often been asked to change
the date of these very early drawing rooms
to some more comfortable season.and to
spare the feelings of thin younp girls and
old dowagers who have to sit shivering for
hours in their carriages waiting for their
turn to come to spread out their trains and
bow. The cold weather doesn't affect the
Queen, and therefore Her Majesty has once
asain announced that she sees no good rea
son for altering the venerable custom.
One innovation which will mark the
early drawing room results from the proc
lamation of the Queen that those who come
to see ber need not wear their dresses as low
as formerly. This concession will notapply
to the drawing rooms in warm weather,
when the ladies will be expected to appear
with very little in the way of clothing
visible above their waists.
ILLNESS OF THE CZARINA.
A Sudden Shock Likely at any lime to Ter

BY CABLE TO TIIE DISPATCH.
London, January 26. The arrangement
by which the Empress of Russia was to have
gone to Naples will very probably have to
be altered on account of the alarming state
of her health. She has been unable tore
cover from the fright of the Borki railroad
disaster, and it is thought that any fresh
shock, such as an earthquake or an eruption
of Vesuvius or anything of that sort, might
be fatal.
The Italian scientists and others will in
vestigate things very carefully and make
sure before the Empress goes to Naples,
whether Vesuvius is apt to be troublesome
at present. The Czarina suffers from a sort
of palsy and prolonged trembling fits, ac
companied by hysterical crying. It is

AN INTERESTING EUMOR.
The Succession of Priuce Ferdinand to the
Roumanian Throne in Doubt.
IBT CABLE TO THE DISPATCH.
London, January 26. A very interest
ing rumor comes from Budapesth. The
Queen of Boumania, as everybody knows,
has no children, her only child having died
at an early age. Since then she has con
soled herself by writing poetry under the
the name of Carmen Silva. The King's
nephew, Prince Eerdiyand, of Hohenzol
lern, has been looked upon as the heir to
the throne, but according to this rumor the
Prince will now have to look for some orna
mental position in life, as his succession is
threatened.
The rumor is unfortunately rendered im
probable by the fact that the King has lately
bought in Jassy an establishment for the
heir apparent's permanent residence.

no respect to women's rights, prevents her

tBT CABLE TO THE DISPATCH.
London, January 26. In Ireland interest
has of late centered in William O'Brien's
so-called trial, and the complete success of
his efforts to make ludicrous the administra
tion of the coercion law. This, and not a
desire to avoid the prison, is the secret of
his escapade at Carrick-on-Suir. He is at
present engaged in completing some tactical
arrangements on certain estates where the
plan of campaign is in operation, after
which he wilfsurrender to the police.
For the brutal bludgeoning and bayonet

A DIGNIFIED STAND
Taken by the House in Its Considera
' tion of the Senate Tariff Bill.
A PRETTY. BREEZY DISCUSSION
Kesults in Sending it to the Ways and
Means Committee.
AN EAELT EEPOETNOTAT ALLPEOBABLE
Crookedness Disclosed In the Snperrisln? Architect's
Office.
The House had a long and lively discus
sion yesterday on the Senate tariff bill and
the request for a committee of conference.
Some members asserted that the Senate had
usurped the prerogatives of the House, and
the bill was finally sent to the Committee on
"Ways and Means, This committee is not
expecfed to make a very early rtport. The
results of the investigation of the Supervis
ing Architect's office are becoming sensa
tional. Washington, January 26. The Mills
tariff bill, with the Senate substitute there
for, together with the request of the Senate
for a conference, was laid before the House
by the Speaker to-day.
Mr. Beed, of Tennessee, moved to confer
on the Senate substitute; Mr. McMillin, of
Tennessee, reserved the point of order that
the substitute must first be considered in
committee of the whole, while Mr. Mills, of
Texas, raised the point that it must he re
ferred to the Committee on Ways and Means.
Mr. Beed advocated the immediate con
sideration of the Senate measure, and quoted
a sentence from the tariff speech of Speaker
Carlisle, in which he says: "It is the imper
ative duty of the representatives of the peo
ple to reduce the revenue before this Con
gress shall adjourn." He urged speedy
action on the bill, and said that the refer
ence to the Ways and Means Committee
meant delay.
Mr. Mills said that the bill, under the
rules of the House, should receive its fiist
consideration in committee of the whole.
The Senate had been busy in defiance of the
Constitution, preparing the bill, which was
now sent to the House before the House
had sent its bill to the Senate. Now it was
proposed, in violation of the rules of the
House, that the House should agree to a
committee of conference and pass this ex
traordinary measure at a time when the cof
fers of the Government were loaded with
excessive revenue; at a time when the peo
ple were groaning under excessive taxation
a bill to increase the revenue by increas
ing the burden on the people for private
purposes.
SPEEDY ACTION NECESSABY.
Mr.
Mills.
McKinley,
He said:
of Ohio, followed Mr.
The questions as to whether thero is to be
any revenue legislation before the conclusion
of the present Congress depends very much
upon the action taken to-day upon the motion
made by tho gentleman from Maine. Every
body knows that if the bill with the Senate
amendment is sent to the Ways and Means
Committee no practical legislation will bo had
at this session of the Congress, and the question
ot the reduction of the revenue will
remain pending for nearly 11 months, or
until Congress assembles next December and
addresses itself to the subject of tariff legis
lation. So that, at this very point, the House
will determine whether the country was to
havo any reduction of the revenue, or whether
internal revenue collections are to be contin
ced for 12 or 14 months. The Senate, a co-ordinate
branch of Congress, has respectfully
asked the House to grant a committee of con
ference. Only once in the history of parlia
mentary legislation has that request been re
fused. It is not a question of high tariff; it is
not a question of low tariff.
It is a question whether the Honse will meet
the Senate in free and open conference and see
if their differences cannot, be composed and
reconciled. The House has given tbe country
one bill, based on one principle and following
out one public policy; the Senate has given the
country another bill built on a different public
policy. The House wants to reduce the public
revenue, and it can reduce the nnblio revenue.
without the gentleman from Texas surrender
ing one lot of his principle of free trade, or
without the Republican side surrendering one
jot ot its principle of protection. If the House
will meet the Senate in free conference, and
only occupy common ground, as found in both
bills, it conld reduce the revenue from $35,000,
000 to 510,000,000. All that is necessary is to ex
amine the items conynon to both bills.
ON COMMON GBOUND.
First the abolition of tbe tax on tobacco a
reduction of 30,000,000. That is common to
both bills. Then there is the free list common
to both bills. Both bills contain the adminis
trative features, both seeking the same object,
both looking to the honest collection of the
revenue and the honest administration of the
customs laws. This House has already spoken
on the subject. Only the other day, as express
ing its desire to have the tax taken from to
bacco, it refused to send a bill to that end to
the Committee on Ways and Means, and had
sent it to another committee because it be
lieved that that committee would give tbe
House a chance to vote its sentiments and reg
ister its will.
The administrative features of the bills have
nothing to do with politics. They have noth
ing to do with free trade or protection. They
bave nothing to do with high tariff or low
tariff. They are above politics; but they havo
everything to do with the honest administra
tion of the customs laws, whether based on the
principle of protection or on the principle of
tree trade. Why not, as practical men seek
ing to relieve the Treasury of its congested
condition why not meet the condition which
tbe President had described T
Shall we refuse to reduce tbe revenue of the
Government? We have the opportunity to do
it, and to do it this morning; but if this bill
goes to the Committee on ways and Means,
mark my words, there will be no practical
results reached at this session of Congress. I
ask tbe gentlemen on both sides of the House
to signalize tbe close of this Democratic Con
gress with some practical, patriotic resnlts.
M'JIILLIN WAKMS DP.
Mr. McMillin suggested that Mr. Mc
Kinley's remarks would be very fine for a
stump speech, but had nothing to ao with
the rules of the House. He continued:
The gentleman has said that tbe House has
given the country one bill, that the Senate has
given it another, and that these bills are en
tirely different and framed on entirely differ
ent ideas. In the face of this declaration (more
candid than I could have expected from any
man) the gentleman requests the House to
walk up and surrender its constitu
tional prerogative to frame revenue bills
and give it over to tbe Senate.
Are you (appealing to the Democratic side)
ready to do itT Have you so far deteriorated
from the principles that your sires held as to
be willing, at the request- of the gentleman
lrom Ohio, to surrender the right of the House
to frame a bill in accordance with tbe people's
principles and give it over to the Senate, which
is not elected by tbe people! Others may do
as they please, but for me I will never, never
consent to any such terrible and unprincipled
degradation of the riehts of tbe House and
the privileges of tbe people.
The gentleman says tbat there can be selected
out by this extraordinary cowardly Droccss
$30,000,000 or $10,000,000 of revenne that can be
remitted to the people. I deny tbe assertion.
There is no 30,000,000 common to both bills.
THEY TALK BACK.
Mr. Beed again appealed for speedy ac
tion, and Mr. Breckenridge retorted that the
remarks of the gentleman showed that he had
merely made his motion for the purpose of
giving himself and his colleague (Mr. Mc
Kinley) an opportunity to make speeches
to the country, and seemingly for the pur
pose ot putting tne Democratic side in a
false position. He asserted that the Senate
was responsible for the delay in passing the
tantl measure.
Mr. Mills and Mr. McMillin then sub
mitted the points of order, -which they had
held in reserve; and the Speaker decided
that under the rules the bill must be re
ferred the Committee on Ways and Means.
Mr. Beed then asked for unanimous con
sent for the present consideration of the
bill, but Mr. Mills objected.
Mr. McKinley then asked unanimous
consent for the consideration of a resolution
making tbe tariff bill a special
order for
February 5. and providing for
vote on
concurrence or non-concurrence in the
Senate amendment after 12 hours' debate.
To this, also, Mr. Mills objected, so the
bill, with Senate amendment, went to the
Committee on Ways and Means,
AN ARCHITECT'S BAD PLANS.
Supervising Architect Frcrct Said to Dave
Been Engaged in Several Little Schemes.
Washington, January 25. The ex
amination into the affairs of the office of
the Supervising Architect of the Treasury
was continued to-day. J. E. Hosford, a
draughtsman, testified that himself and
another clerk had an interest in the contract
for drawing the plans for the Bridgeport,
Conn., building. They selected an archi
tect who would give them a partnership in
the contract, which they could not have
while in Government employ. Witness had
been solicited by an employe in the office to
contribute to the Democratic campaign
fund. He had refnsed a first and second
time, but it was put to him a third time in
such a way that he voluntarily contributed.
Otto Simpson, another employe, confirmed
the testimony of Hosford, and said in addi
tion that the contract tor plans for the
Bridgeport building calls for the payment
of $1,050, while the work could be done in
the Supervising Architect's office for $485.
S. W. Somerville, of Detroit, was next
examined. He is the man who has been
making a perspective of the Detroit build
ing, under sub-contract with John L.
Bogue, of Georgetown, who is a draughts
man, engaged in map making. Witness
explained how it came about that the job
was done in that wav at the instance of
Supervising Architect Freret. Witness and
Freret agreed upon the price, and Bogue
was selected as the man to make the bid.
Witness could not take the contract in his
own name, as Freret knew, and it was to
avoid the law that Bogue offered the bid.
Witness did all the work and paid $10 for
the use of Bogue's name. This was all done
at the request of Mr. Freret.
Testimony was elicited showing that a
contract similar to the one made in the
Bridgeport case, is in existence for furnish
ing plans for the Vicksburg building.
VERT SLOW ACTION
Will be Taken In tbe Committee oa the
Senate Tariff Dill.
Washington, January 26. The tariff
hill has been received by the Clerk of the
Committee on Ways and Means, and a meet
ing has been called for Tuesday next to be
gin its consideration.
It is the intention to discuss the Senate
amendments thoroughly in committee, and
estimates will be prepared showing the
probable effect of them on the revenues,
from the standpoint of the Ways and Means
Committee. This will, it is expected, take
some time, and an early report upon the bill
does not appear to be probable.

ANY PLUSH GARMENT
IN OUR CLOAK
For Half Its
We mean just what we say. We have marked our entire stock of
Seal Plush Sacques, Jackets, Wraps, Modjeskas and Newmarkets down to
one-half their actual prices, rather than to carry them over.

Fine Beaver Cloth Newmarkets

no more comfortable and convenient garments for home wear than these
goods, and the prices at which we will sell them to-morrow and Tuesday

tion is called to a lot of handsome Shetland and Cashmere Shawls

SPRING NOVELTIES
-Ef-
Ladies' Wraps and Newmarkets
are now displayed by us in a truly beautiful variety. We are not only
the first in Pittsburg or Allegheny to show these new styles, but positively
sell them for less money than the sleepy dry goods stores will ask for
them a month hence. The secret is: We buy and import these goods
direct from the manufacturers, and not from New York jobbers or
importers. The middleman's profit we thus save we give to our patrons.
BIG MARK-DOWN
- or
Infants' Cloaksand
Our stock of these goods fairly teems with new and novel little
garments. In embroidered and plain Cloaks we show every delicate
shade and pronounced color. All of these goods will be offered to close
at astonishingly low prices to-morrow and Tuesday. Don't fail to come,
ladies. Give the babies a chance.
