S. Gov't Report. ABSOLUTEC PURE WOCLU BLOCK BUSINESS. lerioB Kenults Should Sovereign Get Standing In Court. Washington, Jan.

24. The decision of the Knights of Labor to attempt to get an injunction this week restraining Secretary Carlisle from issuing new bonli is still a subject of comment in treasury department circles. There is practically no change in the opinion heretofore noted in these dispatches that such proceedings will not have any standing in court. Certainly this opinion prevailed as to the simple question of assailing the authority of the secretary to issue bonds under the act of 1873, to replenish the gold reserve. As to whether the money thus obtained could be used for other purposes than redt mption of greenbacks was admitted to be An Undecided JU3stion.

As the secretary has used the so-called gold reserve to the extent of and has no one has sought by legal methods to question its actions it seems to the treasury officials that this matter need give him no concern. It is held by some treasury officials that there now exists no gold reserve, the fund that originally made it up having been more than exhausted by the redemption of United States and treasury notes. An oSScer of the department in speaking to a reporter regarding the proposed action of the Knights of Labor pointed out the serious effect upon the government's business that would result if such proceedings should have a standing in the courts. The result would be that the government's hands would be frequently tied and its business operations would be seriously handicapped. BLIZZAKD BLOWING.

London cwDnri Comment on the Itrooklyu Preacher' Keination. London, Jan. 24. The Times in commenting on Dr. Talm age's announcing of his intention to resign from the pas torate of the Brooklyn tabernacle, says that he is without a rival in his peculiar line of oratory, and that his usefulness has never been impaired by a passing scandal.

It adds that when he retires from the tabernacle pulpit it will be a difficult thing to replace him. The Chronicle, commenting on the same subject says: "Are we to suppose that there is any connection between the resignation of Dr. Talmage and the falling receipts of his tabernacle? Dr. Tal mage has been an eminently sensational preacher, and maybe after 23 years of overcharged rhetoric, the people of Brooklyn think that they have had enough for their money. The American pulpit of today, however, is strong and influential enough to dispense with the peculiar methods which Dr.

Talmage has adopted." U'MBEB PKICES KEDICED. The Minneapolis Association Kevlse Its Sale Schedule. Minneapolis, Jan. 24. A lengthy conference was held at the Lumber Ex change of the lumber manufacturers of Minneapolis, the object of the meetinp being to adjust the scale of prices to correspond with the general market.

The scale adorned so adjusts prices a3 to meet the generally depressed condi tion of the market, and while some of the varieties were lowered and some raised, the general average is quite materially reduced as compared with the former schedule. This virtually means a reduction throughout the Northwest, as the pace is set by the Minneapolis as sociation. TANKTOX SIOUX. They Appeal to Congress For the Ratifi cation of Their Treaty.

The aide de camp of Emperor William, Colonel Yon Moltke, has called at Friedrichsruhe and has presented Prince Bismarck with a bottle of very old wine, sent to the ex-chancellor by the emperor.

The bottle of wine was accompanied by an autograph letter, in which the emperor congratulated Prince Bismark upon his recovery from his recent attack of influenza. The Cologne Gazette, referring to the present of the bottle of wine, says that Prince Bismarck, in replying to Count Von Moltke, said that he would wait upon the emperor at Berlin at the beginning of next week. Of Great Importance. The greatest importance is attached here and throughout Germany to the reconciliation between Prince Bismarck and Emperor Williain, as announced by the present sent by the emperor, and by the prince's determination to wait upon the emperor alter his birthday. Espec ial attention is paid to the effect which the reconciliation will have upon the national policy of Germany as it is now declared that Prince Bismarck, in addi tion to being reconciled to Emperor William, is also in full accord with Chancellor von Caprivi and Baron von Rieberstein, the imperial secretary of state for foreign affairs.

The reconciliation as announced, has served to increase the popularity of the emperor, of his chancellor, and of the government, as there is no doubt that a great number of people objected to the practical exiling of the great German statesman.

Admiral Dc Gama Has Een in Con sultation With Him With That End in View. The News of the Consultation Hailed With Great Joy by the Inhabitants of Rio.

Pernambtco, Jan. 24. A dispatch from the Associated Press correspondent at Rio Janeiro says: There have been rumors that the United States was to be asked to arbitrate the matter in dispute between the government of President Peixoto and the commanders of the insurgent forces, but these reports were denied. It is understood that feelers have been sent out by the government of President Peixoto, and that the reply to the feelers was that the United States was in a position to arbitrate any dispute so long as any one of the parties directly interested in the dispute was open to conciliation under the advice of a third party. Today, however, the Associated Press correspondent is informed upon authority, that Admiral da Gama, the rebel in command of the insurgent fleet, has sent a request to Admiral Benham, the American admiral, to be kind enough to act as mediator between the insurgents and the government of President Peixoto, with a view of bringing about peace.

An effort was made to see Admiral Benham and obtain a confirmation or denial of this report, but it may be safely said that there is little doubt of its truth. When the news that Admiral da Gama had been consulting with Admiral Benham, reached the shore, the greatest satisfaction was expressed by everyone at the prospect of an ending to the wearisome civil war, which has been clogging the wheels of trade for so many months. Nobody 6eems to doubt that the Amerieau admiral will soon be able to patch up a peace between the insurgents and the government, for both sides admit that they are heartily tired of the distressing bombardments and attacks and counter attacks, which have been going on for so long, with little or no advantage to either side. BOYS INJURED. Fatal Accident a Coasting Farty at Chippewa Falls.

Chippewa Falls, Jan. 24. A fearful accident happened to a party of 12 boys while coasting on Grand avenue, a street set aside by the city for such purposes.

English Admirals Ahead. London, Jan. 24. The naval estimates for 1894 will provide for the expenditure of 7,000,000. The decision to spend this amount of money in strengthening the navy is a great triumph for the lords of the admirality, who insisted that it was necessary to expend this amount of money upon new ships and it has apparently taken a considerable amount of newspaper agitation to persuade Mr.

Gladstone's government that this was the case. Free Library For Ni.rthCeld. North field, Jan. 24. It is reasonably certain that a free public library for Northfield will be voted on at the coming city election in March.

The House Disposes of the Sugar Schedule of the Wilson Tariff Bill. On the Final Vote in Committee of the "Whole All Duty and Bounty Was Jlemoved. Hawaiian Resolution Reported to the Senate by the Foreign He-lations Committee. "Washington, Jan.

24. At the opening of the house, on motion of Mr. Wise, the president's veto of the New York anl New Jersey bridge bill was referred to the committee ou interstate and foreign commerce. A few minutes later, when the house went into committee of the whole to resume the consideration of the tariff Sir. Oates of Alabama called attention to the peculiar complication that had arisen owing to the failure of the committee to complete the consideration of the sugar schedule.

It came over as unfinished business, while special arrangement made last Saturday the day was set aside for the consideration of the coal and iron ore schedules. Some discussion followed as to the parliamentary status, and if was finally decided by unanimous consent to go ahead with the vote on the sugar schedule, and after that was disposed of to take up coal and iron. The pending question was the Robertson amendment imposing a duty on raw sugar and increasing the duty on refined sugar, as amended by Mr. Warner, placing raw and refined sugar on the free list. The confusion entailed by these two incongruous amendments had first to be straightened out.

Mr. Dingley claimed that the Warner amendment was utterly inconsistent with the Robertson amendment and should be considered as a substitute. Mr. Robertson took issue with him on the ground that Mr. Warner's amendment simply was to place refined sugar on the free list, leaving so much of the house amendment as imposed a duty upon sugar below No.

16 Dutch standard unaffected, The debate ont the point of order con-eumed over an hour and a half. The chair finally stated that the Warner amendment was voted upon as an amendment to the Robertson amendment, lie was now asked, he said, to decide that it should have been voted upon as a substitute. lie declined to rule, and submitted the question to the house to determine whether it should be considered as a substitute or an amendment. Without division, it was decided to treat the Warner amendment as a substitute. The committee was then called upon to vote upon it as a substitute, its effect, if adopted, being to place all sugars, raw and refined, on the free list.

The great mass of Democrats and practically all the Republicans voted for the proposition, only a handful of Democrats, including Mr. Wilson and several other Democrats of the ways and means committee, Mr. Evarts, Coombs, and the members of the Louisiana delegation voting against it. It was carried 161 to 39. The coal schedule was then take up.

In the Senate. Washington, Jan. 24. In the senate Mr. Turpie Ind.) from the committee on foreign relations reported favorably the following resolution: Resolved, That from the facts and papers laid before the senate, it is unwise and inexpedient under the existing conditions to consider at this time any project of annexation of the Hawaiian islands to the United States; that the provisional government therein having been duly recognized, the highest international interest requires that it shall pursue its own line of policy; foreign intervention in the political affairs of these islands would be regard as an act unfriendly to the government of the United States.

"I am directed by the committee on foreign relations," said Senator Turpie, to ask immediate consideration of this resolution. It is the" unanimous expression of the committee save the dissent of the senator from Oregon, Mr. Dolph, in the first clause. I am also directed to say that this resolution has no relation to the special investigation now being made by the committee." "I object to the present consideration of the resolution," said Senator Teller. It has not been printed." "Whenever that resolution comes up," added Senator Mills, "I shall, ask for a division of the question." "As this resolution may bring up considerable criticism," related Senator Teller, "it ought first to be printed." Senator Turpie made a further appeal but Senator Teller insisted, and the resolution went over under the rules.

A bill for an American commissioner at the Antwerp international exposition was presented by Senator Manderson. Live Stock For Sioux. Washington, Jan. 23. Secretary Smith has just approved an order for the issue of 9,966 cows and heifers and 481 bulls to the Dakota Sioux.
