[ Special Telegram to llio Bi.i : , ] Members of the house commit tee on ways and means have to-day assured the BKI : concspondent that an adverse re port will bo ordered on the Randall tariff bill on Tuesday. Major McKlnloy , a republican member of the committee ) , and Mr. McMillan , a democratic member , b-illi - said to-day that an adverse report on the bill will be oidered. If to , the bill will bo placed on llio calendar wheio It will have the same- parliamentary status as the Morrison-Hewitt bill , except that the latter Is sustained by a report ot a majority of the ways and means committee. THAT TEI.IM'IIONK St IT. Theio is a good deal of talk about tlio delay in beginning government suit against the Bell Telephone company at Columbus , O. , and many predict that It will never take place , as government olliclals are losing their nerve under the heavy lire of tlio press and people. Two or thrco local newspapers ven ture the prediction to-day that the suit will nol be brought. .MOIUIISON'H sritKMn. A fcclltu Is irrowlug lu congressional circles that some such scheme as Mr. Morrl-i son proposes will bo adopted ono of those days , by which the country will bo Hood oil with money'ami the doors of national banks made to bane. Ilo proposes to keep the sur It plus In the treasury at not over 5100,000,000 and to call In bonds representing the Inter est bearing debt with thoaeeumulallous from tlmo to tlmo with all in excess of that amount. This would at once throw some thing like SUO,000OOJ on the countiy and de crease the capital stocl < of national banks to the extent of peihaps two-thirds the amount. This of course contemplates some otho i basis of security for national banks a cash lie' posit or a 2 per cent bond exclusive for the banks. It has come to the time already when government bonds aio nn Impracticable investment for idle money. The piciuliiin is too great and fluctuating nnd their liability to bo called In too constant.With money in government bonds the Investor is only sine of ono thing after tlio date at which _ lhey may bo redeemed has passed ho is suic < 4 < > f the face value. "Undoubtedly one of thogieatest problems lobe befoio congress during the next few years Is the security for national banks , and the collateral reduction of the national debt , " feald an old financier In the senate to-day. "Tho lime Is hero when wo must pay the debt , and at the same time ulfoid a moio practicable aad an Increased manner of security lor na tional banks. Government bonds as an in vestment is a thing ot the past. " > OTA DHMOCIIAIIC VICTOrtV. "A good deal Is being soldin the picssoftho cast about the 'democratic victory' In tlio re cent elections in my state. " observed Sena tor Mitchell , of Oiegon , to your correspon dent to-day , "Was it a domociatlc victory ? " I asked. "Not for a moment , " was the quick icply ; "and no ono In Oiegon not even the most ultra democrat contends that It is. The 10- triibllcans elected tha legislature , both branches of it , there being a nmloilty of about fourteen on joint ballot , and also the congressman , secretary of state , superinten dent of puhl le instruction , public pi Inter , etc. , by majorities running up to three thousand , while Iheldemocratsonly elected the govemor jStato treasurer , and tlici judge o the ' ( Supreme court , but the democrats wcro not elected bceauso they wcro demociats. Democracy and republican Ism weio not is sues to the extent of permitting the demo crats to. elect ofllccrs. 'llio Chinese question prevailed. The governor-elect sa > t > in a let ter I have just incolvcd , that if Ills campaign hud hinged on icgular party Issues d republican would have boon elected. Ho was a loader of the anti-Chinese move ment , and Is such now. When ho was in tlio senate a numboi of j ears ago a mass out-door meeting , attended by r > , OJO people , was held ono evening. Tlio man just elected was chairman of the meeting. Ho was a democrat but not a politician , ami ho endorsed my posi tion in congress on the Chinese question and inadosiich a strong anti-Chinese speech that ho was accepted at once us a leader of the movement. The meeting unanimously endorsed mo as an advocalo of absolute Chi nese prohibition. The position of this man was so pronounced aud advanced that the people took him up and clecttdhim governor. Theio Is no political victory or defeat in the election. Jt Is simply a victory for tlio aiitl- Chlnuso advocates. Had anybody el.so run for eovernor on the democratic ticket ho would have been defeated , for Oregon Is a republican slate. The Chinese question Is the loading one lu the politics of the Pacllic slope , and It IssrovvlngcoiiRtantly. " I.OIIIIYIXO I'OII 'Illnill I'AY.

The present tariff was established In July , 1S74 , and placed a consular tax of two francs on every package of merchandise- shipped Irom an American to a Spanish port. In October , 1870 , a royal order substituted for-thl * pack age tax another of 10 centa per ton. Since that data the United Stales has continually attempted to procure the abolition of this tax which has been levied by the Spanish con suls and was weighing heavily upon Ameri can shippers. This object has finally been attained and the now consular tariff explic itly suppresses the objectionable tax. This relonn , coming so soon alter the loyal Older denning the modus vlvemli ot Fcbiuary , 1851 , so as to place American vessels in every lesjicct on the same basis as Spanish vessels In trade with the Antilles , shows a liberal disposition on the part ot the present govern ment of Spain to foster trade between the United Slates and the Antilles.

The Pioketts have a strong battery , and finer base men have not played on the homo grounds this season. They failed to master Salisbury's delivery , however , and with all of their hard work only succeeded in getting three men across the homo plate. The home team were more fortunate , and in addition to their excellent field work , found the leather wjth frequency and good cft'eet , making a total score of eleven.
