WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.—Tbc Ha wailn annexation treaty w.ll again this week occupy the major portion of the time of the senate. It appear* Im probable, however, that the treat/ w.ll be taken up on Monday. There is a unanimous agreement to vote on the immigration hill during the day and it is altogether probable that th s vote will be preceded by some discussion of the merits of the bill. The friendi of the measure are confident of its pas sage, but they are not very hopeful of getting it through without further de bate. EVator Wolcott has given notice of his intention to address he senate on Monday, when he will make a report of the transactions cf the recent In er notional bimetallic commission. Mr. Wolcott has never given extended pub lic utterance concerning the commis sion's work and there la very genera' incest manifts.cd aa to lha course he may pursue in his speech on Monday. When the senate resumes considera tion of the Hawalih treaty. Senator Morgan will consume at lcaat another day in the presentation of hi3 views in favor of annexation. He will be fol lowed by Senators Pettigrew and White in opposition to the treaty, and by other senators for and against it. There is no hope that the dlsc'i.-'.slcn will be concluded during the ween. A great many senators wish to speak, nud as tiie irsuU of the vote is ;i3 un certain as it is at the present, neither side will allow tho vote to be taken. The senate has agreed to voce on the confirmation of Attorney General M: Kenna as associate Ju3tlce of the su preme court on next Friday, and the probabilities are that this vote will be preceded by some discussion as to Mr. McKenna’s merits. The urgent deficiency appropriation bill will be in all probabilty reported on Monday, and there may be an effort to secure it a consideration during tho week. ■ ; 1 'V me nouse is likely to become the a rena for a general discuusslon of our foreign relations In connection with consideration of the diplomatic and consular appropriation bill during the the present week. The Cuban situa tion, the annexation of Hawaii, and the designs of the European powers toward China, will of course, be the principal topics to attract attention, tended debate cn Cuba precipitated at The house managers do no want an ex thls time, but the ml norlty Is determined to press the question during tha con sideration of this bill. It believes the time Is particularly opportune, owing to the anti-autonomy feeling in* Ha vana.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.—Vice Presi dent and MrB. Hobart entertained President and Mrs. .McKinley at a beautiful dinner of twenty covers. The dining rooms and library of the vice president’s apartments were fragrant with flowers, while the tables at which the guests were seated were superbly decorated with bridesmaid roses and lighted with tiny wax •m'>fers under sliver and white shades. Mrs. Hobart’s gown was of pearl gray brocade, trimmed with rare old lace, with whicn she wore ornamentB of pearls and dia monds. This was Mrs. McKinley’s first pearance as a dinner guest In Wash ington since the inauguration and was consequently awaited with great In terest.

Majority Shy of Cuba. WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 17.—The house is likely to become the arena for a general discussion of our for eign relations In connection with the consideration of the diplomatic and consular appropriation bill during the present week. The Cuban situation, the annexation of Hawaii and the de signs of the European powers toward China will of course be the principal topics to attract attention. The house managers do not want an extended debate on Cuba precipitated at this time, but the majority is de termined to press the question dur ing the consideration of this bill. They believe the time is particularly oppor tune, owing to the anti-autonomy feel ing In Havana. Today is District of Columbia day and on Tuesday the consideration of the army appropriation bill will be resumed. This is likely to be con cluded Tuesday, after which the con sular and diplomatic bill will prob ably consume the remainder of tne week. Cnttlny Off Army Detail*.

V,. i . ^ BEN BUTTERWORTH DEAD. He Peacefully Pane* Away Surrounded by Ills Family. CINCINNATI, Jan. 17—A special to the Commerclal-TriDune from Thom asville, Ga., says that Hon. Benjamin Butterwortb, United States commis sioner of patents, who had been ill at Pineywoods hotel there for several weeks, died at 3:1G yesterday after noon. The end was peaceful and when It came his wife and children were at his bedside. He came here to recu perate from at attack of pneumonia, and recovered rapidly until two weeks ago, when he suffered from uremic convulsions. From that relaprp he never recovered. His body w?il be sent to Washington tomorrow. Benjamin Butterworth was what is known as a “birthright Quaker.” Those who knew him best during his busy career are unanimous in saying of him: “His daily life was as exem plary of the tenets of that good, old faith as that of any public official could be.” He was born in Warren county, O., October 22, 1837, was a member of the state senate of Ohio, from Warren and Cad Butler counties in 1873-4. Mr. Butterworth was elected a represent ative in congress of the First Ohio dis trict, including the city of Cincinnati, to the Forty-sixth, Forty-seventh, Forty-ninth, Fiftieth anu Fifty-first congresses.' From then until appoint ed to the position he occupied at his death he devoted most of his time to the practice of law, especially patent law, in this city. “Ben” Butterworth, as ho has al ways been best known, spent his earlier years round about Bainevllle and Fos ter’s Crossing—the latter a little sta tion on the Miami railroad. His father was William Butterworth and -is mother a Linton, a family noted throughout the entire line for their keenness of intellect, powers of per ception and strength in speech and debate, both parents were of Quaker ancestry. Major Butterworth’s keen intellect and remarkable powers of perception were inherited from his mother. WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.—In Wash ington no less than in his native state Major Butterworth to joyed a wiue ac quaintance and great popa'r/.T'y, and the news of his death, while by no means unexpected, will cause general sorrow here. No public man prob ably had a larger circle of friends at the capltol. He contracted his fatal illness while on the stump in the late Ohio campaign. No information has been received as to the time or place of the funeral. Platform of the Populist*. ST. LOUIS, Jan. 17—The National conference of the mldlo-of-the-road populists held in this city endorsed the platform upt forth by the national organization committee last November, and upon this platform will not only issue its call for a convention in April, but will seek the election of congress men for the next four years and the election of a populist president In 1900. There are eight planks in the platform. They are as follows: 1. Absolute paper money, based upon every commodity and resource o- the nation, a full legal tender and receiv able for dues to the United States. 2. Free coinage of silver and gold at the present legal ratio; the coin debts of the United States payable in either at the option of the govern ment. 3. All money to be issued by the gov ernment and paid out direct to the people for services rendered, or to be loaned to them at a low rate of inter est on safe security, and without the intervention of private banks, pro vided that the volume of currency shall not exceed $50 per capita. 4. Government ownership and opera tion of all railroads, telegraph and telephone lines. 5. The oposition to alien ownership and holding of land for speculative purposes. 6. Opposition to court made law. 7. Opposition to trusts. 8. We especially recommend tho initiative and referendum and the im perative mandate. The Alaska Trade. PHILADELPHIA. Jan. 17.—The ne gotiations between the W. A. Cramp & Sons Ship and Engine Building Com pany, and the International Naviga tion company for the purchase and sale of the “Ohio,” "Indiana,” “Illin ois,” "Pennsylvania” and Conemaugh,” for the trade between the Pacific coast and Alaska, have resulted in the In ternational Navigation Company de ciding to organize a company to be un der its own management. This com pany will be called the Empire Trans portation Company, of which Clement A. Orimscon will be president. Cramp’s ship yard is now busy thor oroughly overhauling these boats and refitting them with passenger accom modations, especially adapted for the Pacific coast and Alaska trade. Must Use Unredeemed Tickets. WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.—The house committee on interstate and foreign commerce had the anti-scalping bill under discussion. Some important amendments were adopted. One im poses a penalty on railroads who re-' fuse to redeem unused tickets. This plan is lacking in the original bill, and the railroad men present favor it as an earnest of good faith. An amend ment was also adopted providing that passengers applying for redemption of tickets should not be given the benefit of the through tarifT, but on only the regular points where the journey ceased. --— a Retain the Insurance law. WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.—The senate committee on territories has decided to postpone Indefinitely a bill to an nul an act of the legislature of the territory of New Mexico, relating to Insurance companies. The act is to go into effect on February 1, and pro vides that all Insurance companies doing business in the territory shall deposit $10,000 in cash, municipal or territorial bonds at par rs a guaranty for the payment of losses. It was stated In the committee that forty-one insurance companies would be affected by the act A PRIVATE BILL BAY. HOUSE TAKES A REST ON CU BAN SPEECHES. The Invitation of Norway for Participa tion In the International Fisheries Ex position—The Amendment to the Ag ricultural Mill—Proceedings Yesterday lu the Upper Honse. Avoiding Caban Debate. WASHINGTON, Jan. 15.—The House managers decided not to proceed with the consideration of the diplomatic and consular appropriation yesterday, but to give the day for the consider ation of private bills. This was doubt less done to avert the possibility of precipitating a sensational Cuban de bate during the consideration of the appropriation bill. Inflammatory speeches during the present critical state of affairs in Havana would, the conservative leaders believe, be par ticularly unfortunate. When the house adjourned Thursday night the amendment to the agricul tural appropriation bill providing for the publication of another edition of the “Horse Book” was pending. Yes terday the friends of the amendment compromised with the appropriations committee by agreeing to a reduction of the number to be printed from lo-i, 000 to 75,000. As amended the bill was passed. The resolution accepting the invi tation of the government of Norway to participate in the International Fisheries exposition at Bergen from May to September, 1898, was called up by Mr. Simpkins (rep., Mass.). Mr. Cannon, chairman cf the appropriation committee, said ha thought on the ex position question congress was running wild. We had had domestic exposi tions at Philadelphia, Chicago, New Orleans, Cincinnati, Louisville, Atlan ta and Nashville, and were now about to have one at Omaha. Abroad we had participated in the expositions at Vienna, Paris, Berlin and Brussels. The anxiety of would-be commissioners to have the honor and glory of our country represented at these' foreign expositions was agonizing. Now here came this exposition at Bergen. Twenty thousand dollars to be appropriated now. ii mis resolution passed con gress would be called upon to foot the bill for a deflciency of *20,000. He gave It as his deliberate judgment that the Interests of the United States did not renuire our participation in this expo sition. If we did our duty by the Paris exposition that would be enough. After some transaction of some rou tine business in the senate yesterday, Mr. Hoar, of Massachusetts, presented the following joint resolution propos ing an amendment to . e constitution That the following article be pro posed to the legislatures of the eeveral states as an amendment to the con stitution of the Unied Sates: . The term of office of the president and of the Fifty-sixth congress suall continue until the 30th day of April, in the year 1899, at noon. The senators whose existing term would otherwise eiplre on the 4th day of March, in the year 1899, or thereafter, shall continue in office until noon of the 30th day of April, succeeding such expiration; and the 30th day of April, at noon, shall thereafter be substituted for the 4th of March as the commencement and termination of the official term of the president, vice president, senators and representatives in congress. The resolution was referred to the committee on privileges and elections. Mr. Quay, of Pennsylvania, offered the following resolution, which was re ferred to the committee on Indian af fairs: Resolved. That the secretary of the interior shall be and is hereby instruct ed to investigate the facts attending the recent alleged atrocious burning to death of two Seminole Indians by a mob in Oklahoma Territory and make report thereon to congress. That the sum of 825.000, or so much thereof as may be necessary, is hereby appro priated out of any money in the treas ury not otherwise appropriated for the Investigation, apprehension and pun ishment of the guilty persons, to be expeded under the direction of the secretary of the interior. KdlRon Finds a New Metal. NEW YORK, Jan. 15—The Herald flays that Thomas A. Edison has acci dentally discovered what he believes to be a new metal which will do away with the slow and costly process of making mailable iron. Exhaustive experiments will be made, and if they are successful it is promised that full details will be given to the public It is asserted that after a lot of iron had been run through a magnetic ore 3eparating mill the pigs were taken from the blast furnace as usual to be cooled and broken up. The lot in question proved refractory, for the pigs resisted all efforts of the men with heavy sledges to break them. The fact was submitted to chemists and the theory was formed that there was some hitherto unknown sub stance in the iron used and this is believed to be a new metal. • Good Roads Movement.. ALBANY, N. Y., Jan. 15.—There was introduced in the senate a good reads bill which provides for the construc tion through each of the counties of the state of a macadam highway that shall Joliow the leading market and travel south. The entire expense of the construction of such roads is to be borne by the state, and the work is to be done under the direction of the state engineer. The only expense to thft counties is the preparation of a survey of the highways selected. The Monetary Hearing. WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.—Robert S. Taylor, of Indiana, a member of the monetary commission, was again be fore the house banking and currency committee at today’s session. He re ferred to the inadequacy of the bank ing facilities in the south and west, and suggested that for the present this country must look mainly to inde pendent, small local banks for the re lief which is needed, though he con ceiled an extensive system of branch banks might have a more effective tendency to equalize rates of interest WILL TRAVEL ALONE. Mld'Uu of tho Road Popullatz Form a New Organization. ST. LOUIS, Jan. 15.—A new party was born in the conference of the populists ' and named the Peopled party. The People’s party proposes to go it alone. It has severed all connection with the national populist committee and made all arrangements for admin istering its own estate without the aid or advice of any outside party. With a few exceptions, the delegates declared themselves unequivocally in favor of going it alone in the future. The referendum system was most highly complimented and recommend ed for use among the middle of the roaders in settling matters of national importance to tlys order, and there was a practical agreement among the dele gates that a national presidential con vention should be held this year. There was lengthy discussion, and it was not until a late hour that the pro ceedure for future action was agreed upon. Finally a report was adopted as follows in part: To the People of the United States: The fusion movement consummated at St. Louis in July, 1896, and the treat ment of our candidate for vice presi dent in the campaign that followed, gave rise to such dissension among the rank and file of the People’s party as to threaten the absolute dismenber ment of the only political organization honestly contending for the social and political rights of the laboring and producing, classes of the country. It has been the purpose always of the committee to be courteous to the national committee, and our supreme desire has been at all times to pro mote a harmonious co-operation with said committee, that factional differ ences might be obliterated, our party prestige regained and our organization restored to its once eplendid estate. This comm." tee feels confident of its ability to show that it is no fault of ours that the national committee is not present as a body to-day, but it does not choose to waste valuable time in wranellng ov<\.- questions of official etiquette. VVe avow it to be our sincere pur pose now, as ever heretofore, to pro mote in very hnorable way the reform movement on true populist line3, and we deem the issues too momentous and the dangers threatening free govern ment too great to allow us to paU3s to consider personal grievances or af fronts, or to permit wounded dignity, real or imaginary, to overshadow pa triotic duties. Under pMient conditions our be loved organization is slowly but sure ly disintegrating and our comrades are clamorous for aggressive action. Having in vain importuned those who assumed to be our superiors to permit us to aid them in the grand work of reorganizing the People’s party, that it may accomplish its glor ious mission, we now appeal to the people, the true souce of all political power. The referendum committeeappointed is as follows: Messrs. Dixon, of Mis souri, Tracey, of Texas, Reynolds, of Illinois, Matinger, of Indiana, and Mc Gregor, of Georgia. A number of rules were adopted for the government of the national organ ization committee, among them a rule that the national organization com mittee shall submit to a vote of the People’s party any preposition when petitioned to do so by not less than 10,000 members of the party. On the adjournment of the organiza tion committee the members of the national committee present met at the LaOIede hotel and adopted the follow ing resolution: Resolved, That we, the members of the national committee present, in dorse the action taken by the organiza tion committee and recommend that its provisions be carried into effect, be lieving that such action will harmo nize all differences in the party. There were seventy-four members of the committee represented by the members present nr bv proxies and let ters, and favored a joint meeting of the national committee and organization committee in the spring. Forty states were represented at the meeting. Senator Hanna to Refit. COLUMBUS, O., Jan. 15.—Senator Hanna has gone to his home at Cleve land, where he will remain over Sun day. His physicians insist upon h:s taking a rest. The strain on him here for two weeks has worn on him severely. He shows it very visibly. All the workers on both sides are ex hausted. The next hard work to be done in the legislature will probably be an ef fort to reorganize and throw the demo crats out of control in both houses. Meantime the bribery investigations are to proceed in both houses on the contending factions, the senate having adopted resolutions yesterday after noon for an investigation of the Otis ease, and its committee began work last night, but nothing new was de veloped. An Oklahoma Law Void. GUTHRIE, O. T., Jan. 15.—’The su preme court today promulgated an opinion in which the separate school law passed last winter, making it a misdemeanor for a white child to at tend a colored school, was declared null and void because of ambiguity, uncertainty and conflict with both the letter and the spirit of the fifteenth amendment to the constitution of the Unled States. The charges of bribery in the Ohi<> senatorial contest it is said will be in vestigated in the United States senate. Hnrd Coal Prices Higher. NEW YORK, Jan. 15.—Announce ment was made today that the anthra cite coal producing and carrying com panies have advanced prices 10 to 20 cents per ton to the basis of $3.95 free on board for stove at tidewater, other prices in proportion.

Senora Inez Ponce De Roque, wife of the insurgent Colonel Ponce De Ro que, arrived in New York on the steamer Seneca. Senora De Roque, who is a strikingly beautiful woman, was exiled from Cuba by order of Gen. Blanco. A letter which she wrote to her husband was intercepted by the Spanish authorities and, as it contain ed information inimical to their in- j terests, Mrs. De Roque was arrested and thrown into prison in Matanzas. '■. She spent seventeen months and four days in jail, most of the time incom municado. She was released under the general amnesty granted by the queen regent. After her release she refused to try to persuade her husband to lay down his arms and was banished in consequence. An inventory of the late George M. Pullman was filed in the probate court at Chicago by Norman B. Ream and Robert T. Lincoln, executors. The in ventory lists the real estate and per sonal property of the deceased, though it places no valuation on the former and gives only the par value of the se curities which form the major portion of the trust. According to the esti mates given at the time the will was filed, the real estate was worth but $800,000, and the personal estate $6,000,000. In the inventory the con servatory policy of the executors is further borne out, and on the property valued the figures are su^b as leave little chance for depreciation. The in vestments of Mr. Pullman were wide spread. He held 23,919 shares of Pull man Palace Cor company stock, and was interested in the Nacaragua Canal company to the extent of $200 in stock and $10,000 in bonds.
