TIIE KCEANT01T TIUBTTNE THCTRSDAT MOITNTNGr, DECEMBER 20, 1894;
DEBATING ON THE CANAL
Mr. Turpie Continues His Pierce At
tacks Upon the Measure.
HOUSE TALKS OX CURRENCY
Carlisle Bill Is Denounced Because of the
Indecent Haste Exhibited in Present
ing It-The Silvery King of Mr.
Bland's Voice Is Heard.
By the United Press.
Washington, Dec. 19. The debate on
the Nicaragua canal bill was continued
In the senate today, occupying 1 over
four hours of the sitting. The attack
upon the bill, which was opened by Mr.
Turpie on Monday and continued on
Tuesday, was concluded by him today,
when he offered a substitute for the
bill providing for a board of three civil
engineers to make a survey and estl
mute, declaring that that was as far
as the senate should go at this session.
Rome of his strictures and censures
on the bill were resented by Mr.
Morgan, who Is In charge of it but this
did not restrain the Indiana senator
from declaring, in his picturesque and
Vehement language, that there was no
certainty, und no provision for a cer
tainty, that it ever would be finished,
lie argued that the reason why the
work was not to be constructed and
paid for in sections, was that the first
section construction of the harbor at
Grey town and of the two miles sea
channel In it would cost over one
fourth of the seventy millions; and that
as soon as that section was undertaken
the bubble would burst and the scheme
would be abandoned.
Mr. Allen offered resolutions for the
appointment of a select committee to
inquire as to whether the Btate of Ala
bama has a Republican form of govern
ment and as to the conduct of the re
cent election In that state. The resolu
tion went over, Mr. Allen stating that
he would address the senate upon it
after the holiday recess.
House Talking Currency.
The speakers in the second day's dis
cussion of the currency bill In the
house were Messrs. Johnson, (Rep.,
Ind.), Warner, (Dem., N. Y.), and Ellis,
(Uem., Ky.), all members of the com
mittee on banking and currency. Mr.
Warner advocated the passage of the
bill because of the proposed rehabili
tation of state banks and because of the
fact that it took the government out of
the business of issuing a currency.
Mr. Johnson opposed it because he
believed it vicious and because of the
indecent haste that was exhibited in
presenting It to the house. Mr. Kills'
opposition was largely based upon the
fact thait the bill provided for a re
organization and extension of the na
tional banking system, vlen eve.y
state ami national convention of the
democratic party for years 'hod de
clared against it, and this at a itime
when 'the necessity for their services as
f.scal agents, if it ever existed, had
been absolutely p.issed.
Mr. I'.land gave notice that he would
move to amend by substituting for the
bill his free coinage of silver and coin
note scheme. The house adjourned at
6.20 o'clock to meet at 11 o'clock tomor
row. At 2 o'clock the debate on the
currency bill will be suspended and the
ceremonies of unveiling ithe statues of
Webster and Stark, presented by the
state of New Hampshire, entered upon.
PIG THAT FED ON METAL.
Regular Junk Shop of Iron In a Hog's
Tough Storaucb,
By the United Press.
Pottstown, Dec. 19. A hog with a
wonderful appetite for iron and other
metals was butchered In Whitpain
township by T. J. Rile a day or two ago.
An inventory of his porkship's stomach
showed that it contained sixty-two
screws of various kinds, some of them
an inch and a half long; fifteen copper
belt vints, eight iron vlnts, three metal
lic belt hooks, two galvanized Iron sta
ples, seventeen nails and pieces of nails,
one stay key, one brass hobk, a broken
door key, one Iron washer, three pieces
of wire, one brass door key, one Iron
nut, a brass cartridge shell, an um
brella ferrule, an Iron carriage knob, a
one stay key, ane brass hook, a broken
email stone and seventeen pieces of
brass, tin, zinc and lead, which bore
evidence of heroic attempts at mastica
tion. Santa Clans couldn't make a wiser
choice of a gift for his little friends than
to present them those funny, droll and
mlrth-commaiullng "Queer People." All
parts can now be had at The Tribune
business office.

INDUSTRIAL TOPICS
James Bell, of Brownsville, has pur-
chosed a one-third interest .in the Cam
bridge colliery near Shenandoah.
William Fillmore, of White Haven,
has been appointed Lehigh Valley
freight agent at Plttston Junction, vice
C. P. Emlgh, resigned.
A casting weighing lOVi tons, to be
used for a scale car for the Reading
railroad, was shipped from the Pott3-
vllle repair shops Tuesday.
The Weatherly bicycle factory is
about completed and the company will
begin operations 'on Jan. 1. The new
concern will employ about fifty handa.
lieglnnlng Tuesdny the employes of
the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Bal
timore railroad shops In Wilmington
were placed on nine hours a day time,
an Increase of an hour per day.
Important changes will be made nt
the Johnson (Company's Steel works nt
Johnstown soon, giving employment to
many more men. Congressman Tom
Jj. Johnson is directing the changes.
Tho coal shipments over the Reading
railroad d it the week ending lec. 15
were 290,37 tons, a decrease of 20,991
tons as compared with last year. Since
Dec. 1 'Che shipments 'have been G14.01S
tons, a decrease of !6,9!ti tons from last
year.
Philadelphia Stockholder: "Over-
zealous friends of John Wanamaker,
parading him for either the Lehigh
Valley or the Reading presidency, tend
to place him In an embarrassing posi
tion, owing to the fact that It is ton late
to elect him to either office."
The Elliott-Washington Cold-Rolled
Steel company, of New Castle, P., lias
planned to so largely Increase Its plant
as to give work night and day to five
times as many men as at present, with
four sets of large rolls and a first-class
mill in general. A large open-hearth
furnace Is soon to be added.
Philadelphia Record: "The mines In
the Wyoming and Lackawanna regions
will shut down on Saturday next for
the rest of the year; but the brief sea
son of enforced idleness will cast no
shadow on the miners' Christmas
hearths, since it will be but the pre
lude to an active resumption of work
with the new year."
The Monarch Coal company will open
up an extensive stripping where the
slate banks are being removed at No. 1.
Honey Brook. A valuable vein of coal
underlies the slate banks there and as
fast as the banks are removed and pre
pared at the washery, the clay will be
taken oft the new vein of coal. The
stripping will start in a few weeks.
Mine Inspector John M. Lewis rays
tfliaiC his report for 1S94, like those of all
otlwr inspectors, will not be ready un
til some time in January, but he recent
ly Informed a Hazleton reporter that
during the last eleven months of the
present year there was dn the Fifth
Anthracite distiiot 140 accidents, of
wihich 53 were fatal, leaving 27 widows
and G4 orphans.
Considerable mirprise Is manifested,
according to the Wilkes-Ilarre Record,
that Calvin Pardee should take the
presidency of the Lehigh Navigation
company He has so many Interests
and Is so busy that an additional re
sponsibility, and a serious one at that,
would seem to be rather unwelcome.
But, of course, he means to take up
the burden and no doubt will make a
rood many substantial improvements
in the affairs of the company.
Philadelphia Times: "The anthracite
coal trade is quiet, with no change In
conditions. The demand is light, owing
to continued mild weather. From now
on it will be a weather market almort
exclusively. Sentiment In the trade Is
in favor of radical restriction during,
January and February. It Is customary
In January to reduce prices, but It Is
probable that no such attempt will be
made next month. The regular monthly
meeting of the sales agents will be held
between Christmas and New Year's."
Ex-Postmaster General John Wana-
maker, who has been requested by
Henry Clews, of New York, represent
ing a number of dissatisfied Reading
railroad stockholders, to permit the
use of his name as a candldute for the
presidency of the company in opposi
tion to Joseph S. Harris, has not as yet
replied to Mr. Clews' communication.
He says he expected to give Mr. Clews
an answer In a day or so, but beyond
that he absolutely declined to disc-tins
the subject further or to even hint as
to the course he will take.
The drag-net cnnvnss for proxies that
Is being made by the Reading manage
ment surpasses In Its attention to detail
anything that has been known In this
line since Mr. Oowen's famous battle
with the MeCalmonts. Not content
with mailing blank proxies to every
stockholder, the company's agents have
personally waited upon stockholders
whose holding was as small as twelve
shares. And yet In spite of these ex
traordinary efforts the present prospect
is that Mr. Harris will poll a smaller
vote than he did a year ago. Person
ally Mr. Harris Is popular and he Is
universally- esteemed for his scientific
attainments and his strict personal In
tegrity, but he Is- weighted" down by
the fact that he has Indorsed the Olcott
plan 6f reorganization. The agents of
the company, who have come In contact
With the stockholders, all report .that
this plan is very Unpopular.
A Bothltliem dispatch says: A ban
quet whkffi President Linderman, of
She Behldhom Iron company, tendered
to Russian dignitaries on a visit to this
vicinity In May, 1S93, Is now said to
have been the main Incident which In
flueneed the royal guests In procuring
for ithe Iron company the now famous
oontraot )to moke 12,000 tons of steel
armor plate for Blie czar's new war
ships, at a cost of about $4,000,000.
In May th ofllcars of 'the Russian
fleet were In New York to participate In
the Columbian naval oeeratlon. When
the Russian and Austrian vessels visit'
ed Philadelphia they left one morning
under the escort of Charles H. Cramp,
bread of the shipbuilding firm, for Bdth
lahem, wtoen they witnessed a test at
Redlngton and wore afterward splen
didly entertained by President Llnder
main and other officers of the company,
In that paiity were his Imperial High
noss, Grand Duke Alexander,' a cousiln
of the present czar, and Admiral Kaz
niakoff. This royal banquet opened .the
way to the subsequent satisfactory
tests of airmor plaite In the visitors'
presence, and to the later sending of
Lieutenant Meigs to SI. Petersburg to
bid for the big contract.

New York, Dec. ID. Speculation at
the Stock exchange today was quiet,
and tendency of prices except in a few
Instances was downward. Chicago Gas
rose U4 to 72. Subsequently it reacted
to IIYj. Sugar was a weak spot and
fell under moderately heavy sales from
91 to 89, Distillers was heavy, selling
down to 2S!4i on the publication of the
official circular, which clearly shows
that an assessment cannot be avoid
ed. The railway list lacked sup
port and the Grangers lost to 't per
cent. The selling was most pronounced
in the case of St. Paul. On rumors of u
reduction In the dividend of Jersey Cen
tral the stock sold down to 92j. Read
ing touched 13'i, the lowest point for a
long time. Speculation closed barely
steady with prices anywhere from 14
to Ivk per cent, lower than yesterday's
finals. Sugar and Jrrey Central scored
the greatest losses. Total sales were
1C4.000.

to our patrons:
Washburn-Crosby Co. wish to assure their many pat
rons that they will this vear hold to their usual custom
of milling Sl'RICTLY OLD WHEAT until the new crop
is fully cured. New wheat is now upon the market, and
owing to the excessively dry weather many millers aro
of the opinion that it is already cured, and in proper
condition for milling. Washburn-Crosby Co. will take
no risks, and will allow the new wheat fully threo
months to mature before grinding.
This careful attention to every detail of milling has
placed Washburn-Crosby Co.'s "flour far above other
brands.
