WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, January 19,1594.
Secretary Carlisle has announced an
issue of bonds, under authority of the
act of 1875, to meet the present necessi
ties of the treasury. While neither he,
President Cleveland nor any member of
the cabinet have any doubts about his
authority to issue bonds, he and they
would have preferred that congress
should have provided for the financial
deficit, but Senator Yoorhees and other
leading Democrats in congress, after con
sultation and mature deliberation, arriv
ed at the conclusion that it would be im
possible to secure congressional action
in time to render the aid needed, owing
to differences of opinion among Demo- j
crats as to what should be done; and
they advised that advantage be
taken of the authority conferred by tbe
old Jaw. The issue of bonds is to be
limited to the immediate needs of the
government, thus leaving congress free
to act as soon as it may be so disposed,
by providing other means of raising
money that must be had from some
source.
The consideration of the Wilson tariff
hill is proceeding satisfactorily to the
Democrats, although the clauses about
which there is the greatest Democratic
controversy have not yet been reached.
A number of minor amendments have
been adopted, and one very important
one—providing that the free wool clause
should take effect upon the passage of
of the bill.
Senator Berry, speaking on Senator
Call's resolution for an investigation of
the civil service, said: "I think there
is a great deal of humbug about this
civil service business, and I am not in
favor of extending it one iota further."
This statement was greeted with much
uproarious applause from the galleries
that the chairman bad to threaten to
have them cleared before quiet was re
stored. Mr. Horry voiced the popular
idea.
The depleted condition of the treasury
would preyent any considerable appro
priation for the enlargement of our navy
at the present session of congress, even
if a majority of the Democrats were in j
favor of such appropriation, which is |
doubtful. Representative llolmun is '
one of the Democrats who believes that
our navy is already dangerously large
and that it should not be added to, un
less the traditional policy of our govern
ment, to avoid entangling alliances, is to
be shelved and an aggressive foreign
policy substituted therefore.
bo many misleading statements have
been made about the reasons that caused |
the southern Democratic senators to vote
against Mr. Jlornhlower's confirmation,
which was rejected this week, that I
have ascertained what was the principal
reason for their voting against him. It
was simply that they had doubts about
Mr. liornblower's status as a constitu-1
tional jurist, and did not propose to take '
any chances. Senator Dray, of Dela
ware, can have the vacancy if he wants
firmed ° unanimously con- J
Senator Daniel it plain to Sena
tor Hoar this week that it was not
altogether prudent to attempt to make a
speech on tlie Hawaiian question with
no better preparation than a feeling of
malignant hatred of President Cleveland
and the Democratic party. After practi
cally compelling Senator Hoar to admit
his ignorance of the o/Hciai documents
bearing on the subject upon which iie
was speaking .Senator Daniel consid- j
erately dropped the matter. Senator
Morgan iiad earlier in the week tripped
up Senator Davis, of Minnesota, in a J
similar way, but instead of acknowledg
ing his ignorance Davis got mad and
tried to bluff through on a refusal to bo
further interrupted. S, J

Payday, once the long look
ed for day of each month, is
getting to be a farce with the
miners hereabouts. There was
a time when a man could rub
one dollar against another after
leaving the pay office, but now
the majority get nothing more
substantial than a check, not a
bank check, but a slip of paper
which informs him how much
deeper he sank in debt to the
company during the previous
month. I was speaking to sev
eral old miners since the last
general pay, and 1 find that the
old residents are getting dis
couraged. They have pulled
through similar "poor times"
befoi'e, all of them, but there
was always a hope that the coal
trade would become better.
They have watched the silver
lining to their cloud disappear
so often that they are finally
convinced the art of mining
coal has seen its best days, and
unless thexe are some radi
cal changes soon in the way the
coal kings manipulate the work
and wages many will have to
seek a living elsewhere.
I liave not heard anything
lately about the 1). S. & 8. being
extended to Freeland. It would
| be poor policy to let the matter
drop now without making an
effort to obtain the opinion of
the company's officials upon the
question, and if anything fur
ther is to be done it would be
well to do it quickly, so that
those interested could know
whether or not there is any use
in trying to have it extended.
1 think the people of town favor
the road, and will give it a very
large share of their support, but
beyond this they have very few
inducements to offer. That it
would, however, be of mutual
advantage to the town and the
company seems to be the gen
eral impression, and the men
who took in hand the matter
of trying to bring it before the
railroad officers will receive the
thanks of all if they succeed in
pushing it to a successful con
clusion.
The reported misfortune of
James Brady, who is now in an
insane asylum in Pittsburg, was
a surprise to his Freeland ad
mirers and the ball players who
I were with him on the Freeland
I team in 1892. Jim was a favor-
I ife in this town and did a great
, deal to arouse enthusiasm in the
| national game while he was in
this part of the state. He was
a good-hearted, genial fellow,
sober and industrious, and ap
peared to have a better future
in store than to lose his reason
so early in life. His gentle
manly conduct on and off the
ball Held won for himself and
the clubs he played with respect
and esteem wherever they went,
and in 110 place was the news of
his insanity regretted more than
in Freeland. It is too bad to
see Jim end his days in such an
institution, and I, with many
others, hope the report is not
true.
Among the events that will
occur this year is the twenty
lifth anniversary of the ordina
tion to the priesthood of Rev.
M. J. Fallihee, the pastor at St.
Ann's church. I understand
that some of the societies con
nected with the church have al
ready discussed the matter, and
it is quite likely that the occa
sion will be observed in an ap
propriate manner. Some objec
tions may be met in the prepar
ations, for the modesty of the
priest will cause him to oppose
any display, but silver jubilees
come only once in a lifetime and
it is safe to say that the whole
community, including people of
all religious beliefs, will insist
upon showing their appreciation
of Father Fallihee's good work
here. His parishioners and
friends will see that September
17 is celebrated creditably.
As usual, before one election
is disposed of, the candidates
for another are surveying the
ground and looking up their
chances. The legislature is
the chosen destination of a
few well-known men, and I be
lieve the contest they will make
in trying to get there will be as
exciting as any the fourth dis-
I trict has seen in a good many
I years. lb, n . William 11. Jef-
frey will, from present appear
ances, receive a renomination
from the Republicans without
opposition, but honors on the
Democratic side may not be so
easy. The only candidate yet
announced publicly is James A.
Sweeney, of the "Plain Speak
er," but I have heard that
Anthony Reilly would not mind
risking his chances again. Now
either of these two men should
make a strong candidate, and
would undoubtedly recover the
district to the Democrats under
ordinary conditions, but when
it is remembered that Jeffrey
has already beaten one of them,
as well as another strong man
from Hazleton, P. P. Boyle, it
is about time that the Demo
crats try a man from the North
Side as his opponent.
Hazleton has liad the nomina
tion twice in succession and
failed to derive any benefit from
it, and because its politicians
can control the legislative con
ventions it appears they intend
to appropriate to themselves the
honor a third time. The claim
that locality ought not debar a
man from entering the race is a
good one and may be allowed by
the North Side Democrats at
the convention, but when a cer
tain part of the district is dis
criminated against by the party
managers, as has been the case,
the voters of that section have
a habit of remembering it at the j
polls on election day. I trust, j
however, that the candidate,!
whoever he may lie, will sue
ceed in uniting the party and
prove himself worthy of sup
port. If he comes from Hazle
ton he might take a lesson from
the mistakes of his predeces
sors, who refused to believe
that all the Democracy and
and Democratic voters of the
district were not contained with
in the limits of the city of
Hazleton. SAUNTERER.
