COMPANY 1 CITY -priatlou Hills Will Be the Order la the House, Bland's Seigniorage to Be Looked After by the fite Justice White Taket the Oath I ef Cfflce. T7aShinqto, March 13. Appropria-5 oa wil continue to have the rfiit of way in the house this week. JLa sundry civil bill, which is tmfin-' business, carries 132,306,382, less than that of last year. It triU probably require four days to dis- jpose of this bill, the two items that will provoke the most opposition being the 2 appropriations for the geological and the coast geodetic survey.

"2 After the sundry civil bill is disposed 2 6f, then either the military or consular or diplomatic bill will consume tho balance of the week." The members of the elections committee are very anx-2 lous to interrupt ihe consideration of jthff appropriation bills with the con-" ieated, election cases. But the man- agers believe that the Republicans will 2 Remand a quorum of Democrats to un-m geat (it republican, and as many mem- jiers are out of the city this might block progress in the house for a week. has been deemed best therefore to 2 push I the appropriation bills, upon which there is no political division, as "2 jhrpidly as possible and allow the strug- gle over partisan matters to trail along afterward. In accordance with an agreement Since with the agreement entered into 5 ne senate will devote the major por-tion of this week to the consideration "2 the Bland seigniorage act, which is to be finally disposed of by vote on Thursday if Senator Allison's motion ebould fail of 'adoption, as "it likely Will. The agreement for the consid-eratioB of the seigniorage bill does not 1 1 preclude tho routine work of the sen-ill ate, which is oonfined to the time be- fore 2 o'clock in the day, and it is prob-' able that many of the bills upon the calendar, upon which nondivision of sentiment is probable, will be taken up land passed during this time, and also, after the seigniorage bill is disposed of on Thursday and the remaining days of the week, if the senate should not adjourn over.

There are no announced speeches on the seigniorage bill. It is probable that there will be very little talk on the part of the friends of the bill, as they feel confident of its t'y Justice White Installed. I Washington, March 13. Edward Douglas White of Lousiau was in BLUFF, KRKHNSKS, aiderable feeling io the retirement of Gladstone, saying he would 'grearly miss that sublime and pathetic figure which enriched and ennobled not merely Che treasury bench, but the house itself." Roseberry.said: "A declaration of policy is not necessary as we stand Where Kedid Cheers. There will be no change of measures and although there' has been a disastrous change' of men they are all pledged to the same policy.

Cheers. The same measures will remain as they are. They are the programme of the Liberal party and it is not intended to recede from any of them. The honor of England and the peace of Europe are in the hands of the present government." Regarding the Irish question Lord Roseberry said: "The policy of home rule will not be less definitely pursued. If there is any doubt on tiiis subject the one pledge which the government has given in this connection is the continuance in his present office of Rt, Hon.

John Morley, chief secretary for Ireland. Cheers. Mr. Morley has been offered a higher office, but he thought it his duty not to sever his career from the cause of Ireland." Cheers. Lord Roseberry makes a significant declaration as to his position on lords.

"The conviction has long been forcing itself upon me that with the Democratic suffrage we now eDjoy a second chamber constituted like the house of lords is an anomaly. This conviction has been strengthened by the unhappy chapter of accidents which has turned the house of lords from a body of he-reditery lawgivers, more or less equally divided, into one great Tory organization, entirely at the beck and call of a single party leader." Lord Roseberry declares that the veto by the lords is only exercised when the Liberals are in power in the commons, a danger to good government to which the Liberal party is not blind. He admits that there is great inconvenience when tho premier is not in; the house of commons, but he does not' go so far as some of his friends, in saying that the peers should be treated as pariahs, or that the fact that a man is born in a particular position should debar him from the higher opportunities to serve the state. Closing, he said: "lam not one of those who think that the peerage should be considered a stigma and a bar. But while I remain premier you may be assured that no Liberal in the ranks will endeavor more steadfastly to do his duty by his party." The McCarthyites assembled at 1 p.

m. in a room of the house of commons and engaged in an animated dis-' cussion of Irish parliamentary matters until after 3 o'clock. Ultimately Justin McCarthy was re-elected chairman of the Irish parliamentary party. Gladstone Leaves London. London, March 13, Gladstone, accompanied by Mrs.
