Washington, Jmi. i!r. Tho conilltlon
of affairs in connection with the choice
of a senator from tho Btulc of Dela
ware wns called to the attention of the
senate today by Mr. Uurrows, of Michi
gan, who presented n paper signed by
the throe presidential electors for that
state In which It is asserted that
through Illegal and fraudulent action a
majority of about 500 Republican votes
In Kent county had been changed Into
a Democratic majority of about 200.
Mr. Burrows also presented a paper
signed by the speaker of the senate and
the speaker of the house, asserting that
legislators chosen by the people wore
evicted from the stute capltol and that
the powers of the state government
was usurped by a corrupt oligarchy.
Both papers urge the senate to take
action In the premises. In connection
with the same subject Mr. Chandler,
of New Hampshire, announced his In
tention to suggest to the senate wheth
er some method cannot be llxed "to pre
vent the wholesale larceny of senator
ships In various states."
A resolution wus offered by Mr. i'et
tlgrew, of South Dakota, and was re
ferred to the committee on contingent
expenses for a select committee to In
quire Into the Issue of land patents to
the Pacllic railroads and as to the di
version from tho gross earnings of the
subsidies paid by the companies to the
Pacllic Mall Steamship company. And
notice was given by Mr. Gear, of Iowa,
chulrmun of the Paclllo railroad com
mittee, that after the Nicaragua canal
bill was out of the way, he would ask
the senate to consider the Pacllic rail
road commission bill Mr. White, Cali
fornia, giving notice that objection
would be made to the consideration of
that bill.
CUBAN QUESTION.
A bill providing that no person shall
be tried in a United States court for
acts in aid of the republic of Cuba, was
Introduced by Mr. Chandler and was
referred to the judiciary committee.
And then, In pursuance of previous no
tice Mr. Turple, Indiana, addressed tho
senate In a lone: constitutional argu
ment to prove that the primary and
paramount power to recognize a new
state Is vested, not In the president of
the United States, but In congress un
der that clause of the constitution
which declares that congress shall have
power to regulate commerce, that Is,
according to Mr. Turple, Intercourse
with foreign states. He spoke for two
hours and a half and had not conclud
ed when the hour ilxed for eulogies on
ex-Speaker Crisp, of Georgia, arrived.
Iii the course of his speech he In
dulged In vituperation of Captain Gen
eral Weyler as an "Indescribably di
minutive reptile," as a "man who used
lils sword against women and chil
dren," and who met his enemy with
paper pellets and proclamations." Mr.
Turple favored nn immediate declara
tion of belligerency which would be
followed, he said, vy the Issue of letters
of marque and reprisal and by the ap
pearance of privatusors "militia of the
seas" that would sweep Spanish com
merce from the ociran and would close
the market to Spanish bonds und se
curities. Mr. Turple will continue his
speech tomorrow.
The eulogies on
were delivered by
Georgia; Galllnger,
Gorman, Maryland;
Mills, Texas; Carter
ex-Speaker Cilsp
Senators Gordon,
New Hampshire;
Berry, Arkansas;
Montana; Daniel,
Virginia, nnd Bacon, cGeorgia.

ful has become one of such common
usage in these days of wonders that It
seems nlmost Inadequate to express a
full conception of the anlmotiscope.
Tho audience was led from a' state of
delightful expectancy and uncertainty
to wonder and astonishment. Views of
nlmost life size were run off neo after
the other, ranging from the most
laughable and ridiculous to the most
exciting. The most realistic of all was
tho famous "Black Diamond" express
of the Lehigh Valley railroad, which
was pictured as thundering by nt the
rate of sixty miles an hour. The
glimpse of the ocean off Mnnhattan
Beach after a storm was very line.

New York, Jan. 25. Speculation at tho
Stock Exohango was slow again today,
the sales aggregating only 121,000 shares.
Tho opening wns quiet, following which
an advance of 4aHs took place. The llnn
ncss nt this time was partly the result of
a I eduction In the posted rates of s-rllng
exchange of lie. London again sold In the
local market. In the Industrial group,
General Electric was notably tlrm on the
announcement that the deal for the equip
ping of the Fourth, Sixth and Eighth ave
nue Burfnco lines had been perfected. '1 he
foature of the afternoon trading was the
heaviness of tho Anthracite Coaleis.
Lackawanna fell 2V&; Delaware and Hud-
eon, 2?a; Jersey Central, 2; Heading, ;f.
Tho selling wa3 based on the belief that
the annual reports of tho larger com
panies now about due will compare un
favorably with previous years. Tho gen
eral list yielded U to 114 from tho highest
of the morning In sympathy with the coal,
ers, but in tho final dealings there was a
fractional rally. Tho market closed rather
weak In tone. Net changes show losses of
Uas per rent. In the general list end la

THE use
A few perttneiit remarks in connection with this display and sale: There is' a price
point below which quality cannot exist. With all the economy of close buying, close fig
uring, and modern methods of manufacture, there are certain items of cost which cannot
be eliminated.
LOOK OUT FOR TRASH. When you see Corset Covers advertised for .7c. or
9c. be assured it is trash.
The Muslin Underwear on sale here at our special prices, is worthy of more- than
the usual amount of attention. Firm, evenly woven muslins of good weight; sewing that
shows the hand of skilled work people; no missed stitches or uneven seams, good lengths,
correct widths, generous hems and new trimmings. All this in our Muslin Underwear
that comes to you with a modest margin of profit added for the maker and us.
Fair Prices in Every Sense.
