Naturally thu an nual message of tho president was the lending topic of discussion, tho reports of tho cabinet having all been prepared with tho exception of those of tho secretary of tho treasury and tho attorney gon eral. Tho message ltsolf Is ncnrlng com pletion rapidly, and at tho printing office all preparations have been made for its handling. It is understood that the docu mont will bo of nbout tho same length of last year's communication, making per haps 15,000 words, although in tho ovont that It Is doomed necessary to reserve for treatment in a special nnd Inter mossngo tho discussion of Cuban and Venezuelan affairs tho principal message may bo short ened correspondingly, Ex-Sponker and Spenkor-to-bo lleod Is guarding tho makeup of tho houso com mlttco with tho greatest euro. As his se lections ns spoaker was a foregone con clusion, ho has had amnio oimortunltv during tho recess to block put tho com mittees nnd decide upon tho various chair manships. Tho mombers themselves gen erally wrote to him their vlows and as pirations.. It is believed that before he arrived horo almost all tho Important placos had boon tlocldod upon. It Is under stood, though, that a fowof tho Important assignments nro yet In controversy. It is probnblo that Mr. Reed will consult ox Speaker Crisp and other Democrat leaders as to tho minority roprosontatlon on the committees. From tho bost Information obtaluablo it seems likely SeronoE. Payno (N. Y.) will lead tho ways and moans committee; Mr. Hill (Ills.) foreign affairs; Hondcrson (In.), appropriations; Grosvenor (O.), rivers and harbors; Walker (Mass.), banking and currency; Hepburn (la.), interstate com merce. Mr. Diugloy, of Maine, who was talked of in connection with tho chair manship of ways and means, in order not to embarrass Mr. Reed, consented to hnv ing tho chairmanship go to Mr. Payno. Ho will, however, bo a mombor of tho ways and means committco, nnd will bo given second place on banking and cur rency. Mr, Dalzoll, of Pennsylvania, nu othor aspirant for tho chairmanship of tho ways and means committco, will remain on that committee., nnd will nlso bo glvon a place on foreign affairs. Ohio and Indiana having declared for McDowell and Glenn for cleric nnd door keepor, respectively, of tho houso, thoro Is now practically no doubt of tho election of ex-Itoprosentatlvo MoDowoll ns clerk, al though General Henderson, of Illinois, says ho is still in tho raco. Mr McDow ell's frlouds nro claiming today that ho has 180 votes, and whllo General Hender son's supporters do not concedo so many, tho majority of them admit tho strong probability of tho election of tho Pennsyl vania man by a considerable majority. Tho present slato for tho olcqtlvo offlcos of tlio houso reads: Clork, Alexnndor Mo Dowoll of Pennsylvania; sergennt-nt-arms, Bonjnmln V. Russell of Missouri; doorkeeper, W. J. Gleuu of Now York; postmaster, J. C. McKlroy of Ohio; chap, lain, Rev. Mr. Flshor of Kansas, Thu Re publican house caucus will bo hold to night. Ex-Speaker Crisp arrived horo yesterday, nnd nftor consultation with some of tho Dcmocrntlo leadors It was decided to hold tho houso Democratic caucus this after noon at 3 o'clock. The caucus probnblv will bo very brief, ns no attempt will bo made to outlino a policy for tho coming session. Tho lino of tactics to bo uursued by tho Domocrats will depend upon the de velopment of tho majority. The caucus will select minority candidates for tho houso offices, undoubtedly renominating tho ofllccrs of tho Fifty-third house of rep resentatives, a caucus -chairman and an offlcor to represent tho minority as n "whip" on the floor will be chosen, Judge Holman, of Indiana, who has been chair man of tho Democratic caucus for several congrossos, is not in the prosont house, and It Is generally bolioved that tho cau cus will select Amos J. Cummlngs, of Now York, for this honor. There Is a growing probability that the souato Republicans, nt their caucus on Monday next, will decido to attempt to reorganize tho senato on Republican linos, and that a candidate for president pro torn, will then bo docldod upon. Thoro Is a difference of opinion ns to tho wisdom of attempting more than tho election of a presiding offlcor in the beginning, but tho propondernnoo of opinion is that action nt that tlmo will bo confined to this oflloo. If tho Republican candidate succoods in this contest thq Republicans thon will place candidates in tho field for tho other elective offices. So far Senator Fryo's name Is tho only one heard in connection with tho office of president pro tempore, but there are sov eral aspirants for tho other offices. Among those who are spoken of for secretary of the souato nro Hon. Goorgo O.

RESULT OF A POLICE SCOUTING I The Marauding Party Dwindled as the Investigation Progressed Until the Police Finally Brought to Light a Harmloss and Unsuspecting Fugitive. At about ten o'clock last night two boys, who evidently had finished a hard run and wore pulling like porpoises, stopped Police men Tosh and Leo on Main street and told them that tramps were trying to get into houses at tho west end of Poplar street; that ono of them was using a coal pick with which to pry open windows. Tho policemen and a reporter hurried out Jardln and Poplar streets and over tho rocks to the ex treme western end of the latter street. Arriving at an open shed tho polico struck matches and entered, but found no one. As thoy turned a corner of tho shanty they wero suddenly confronted by two men roughly dressed and carrying a largo piece of rock in each of thoir hands. Tho polico wore about to grab them when they explained that they wero residents of houses tlio tramps attempted to enter. Tlio police then plamiul a reconnoitre, Leo traveling over the rocky and unoven grounds in the southwestern outskirts of tho borough almost as far as Kohlnoor Junction and Tosh scrutinizing parts east and south, but no trace of the tramps could be found, although several residents of tho vicinity aided in tlio search and the ground was gone over carefully. When the polico wero about to withdraw a boy said tramps made a rendezvous of a small shanty at the extreme southern side of the West Shenandoah colliory rock bank. Tho police again separated and started for the place designated, Tosh coining up at tho front and Lee at the rear of tho shanty with a number of citizens straggling from all points of the compass. Tosh struck another match and espied tho form of a man sitting beside a small lire built in the shanty. The form moved out of the shelter upon command of Tosh, dragging a coal pick alter it. Tho form was that of Hughcy Itidlcy, who is known to the polico us a dissipated, but harmless character. A boy in the crowd identified him as tho man who had disturbed the people. Itidlcy disclaimed having dono anything other tlian applied at a house fora drink of water, which was furnished him by the boy. When the latter was asked by the Chief of Police, "What did ho do when he was at tho houso?" tho boy answered, "Noth ing, only what ho says." The people about then said tho man had dono nothing, but seeing a pick in his hand and considering tho request fur a drink of water at nino o'clock at night an excuse to see what would bo a good place to rob, they concluded to send for tho police, ltidley declared that such wore not his intentions, and ns ho is only an oiicmy to himself lie was allowed, by general consent, to re-enter trt shanty for a night's slumber and the police wended thoir way back to town. Thus ended tho burglar scare in tho Fourth ward last night. SATUltUAY, NOV. ISO. Is tho day set for our two special styles of black Derbies at $1.23 and $ 1.50 respectively.
