It n llkoly that there will bo no moro voting
ing on extra month's pay to employes of the

WASHINGTON , Dec. " > . Christmas at the
national capital opened bright nnd sunny.
The temperature was unusually mild. It
was an ideal day to bo out of doors , and the
streets and parks were filled with people.
Early In the morning tbo express wagons
began arriving nt the white house to add to
the great stock of presents which had pre
viously arrived. Ono huge dry goods box
from New York was labeled "For Miss
Huth Cleveland , " and tlio "handle with
caro" told of its delicate contents. The
bundles and boxes wcro taken to the large
front room in the second story , whore white-
aproned nurses superintended the unpack
ing.
ing.Tho president nnd his family cnjoyeJ n
genuine home Christinas. The stockings for
the little ones had been hung up and these
were filled to overflowing. Thcro were pres
ents great and small , some of thorn rare and
costly. TUP.V came from every part of the
country. Not only pcisonal friends'but peo-
tlo in remote localities ivero among the
givers. Of course , the president and Mrs.
Cleveland canto in for a full share of pres
ents , but the president did not wish the in
dividual gifts mentioned , as he regarded
them as personal and family affairs.
At 10 o'clock the president went to his
desk for an hour to attend to such matters
ns required immediate attention. The house
was closed except to specially invited guests.
John P. Hopkins , the now mayor of Chicago ,
was ono of the few admitted to the president ,
to extend Christinas greetings and talk
business , presumably in connection with the
unfilled Chicago federal offices. Assistant
Secretary of State Uhl also had a short con
ference with the president. As the Presby
terian churches did nnt hnvo Christmas
services , none ol the family went to church.
The president and Mrs. Cleveland took advantage -
vantage of the urigbt sunshine nnd drove
about the city in the white house landau.
This afternoon little Margaret Bissell ,
daughter of the postmaster general , had a
Christmas tree , at which Mrs. Cleve
land. Huth and Esther , Mrs. Carlisle
and youthful members of her family.
Airs. Thurbcr nnd the various cabinet
women and children were present.
All the attaches of the executive mansion
wore remembered by the president , most of
them receiving turkeys , nnd those of longest
.servico getting articles of more permanent
use.
Secretary nnd Mrs. Gresham had thslr
Christmas dinner at the Arlington.
Secretary and Mrs. Lament Had a Christ
mas tree for their little ones.
Secretary Morton and daughter enter
tained n number of family guests , who came
from a far distance.

\VAHIIINITON , Doc , li" ) . Senator White of
California , who has given close attention to
the Chinese question , expressed the opinion
that Chinese residents of this country will
accept the opportunity to register under the
new law extending tlio Geary act , and says
that the Chinese have so assured him. The
senator says that the only thing which stood
in the way ot registering under the Geary
law before the lima of registration was ex
tended by the present congress was the
opposition nf thn Six Companies , which made
the light against the constitutionality of the
unucimntl nnd meantime prevented the
Chinese from complying with thn law. Now
that the supreme court of thn United States
has decided upon the constitutionality of the
law nnd confirmed the right of congress to
legislate in the matter , and in view of the
fact that this government has bhown n dis
position to act leniently with the Chinese
already hero , It is supposed that the Six
Companies will withdraw their opposition to
the law. especially as they have been
warned that refusal will result in wholesale
deportation , which would bo ruinous to their
interests. Furthermore , It is understood
that some of the manager * of the Six Com
panies 1mvu expressed thulr acquiescence In
the law. It Is also stated that Iho Chinese
government will counsel compliance.
Will Willingly Ho " .Muccrd. "
Senator White anys there has boon moro
talk about the objection of the Chinese to
having their photographs taken tor filing
with their certificates than was justifiable ,
and that it has largely died out since the
exclusion bill became n law Ho thinks ,
therefore , that the Chinese never felt
so much repugnance to having the
photographs ns was represented. The be
lief Is general among the California people
that the Chlnr.no will sunmit to tilts exac
tion , and the ptvscnt marshal ot southern
California is so ntirt-ly coiiTinced on this
point thut helms established a photograph
gallery in Los Angeles for the especial pur
pose of photographing the Chinese when the
rush shall begin , The senator also states
that thcro Is no special feeling among the
Americans of California upon tbo subject ,
because they think the act will bo euforccd.
and they are willing to submit to the pres
ence of the Chinese now hero providing it
bo understood that no more are to bo Im
ported ,

government , and Mr. Courtney , the deputy

look after the dominions interest. The
argument that is being used to overcome the

rather have l ) n Inmont's influence In
a matter before ' the president or
congress than th.it of all the other
oven mombora of the cabmot combmea. "
This Is what a sharp democratic member
f the > housc said to Tur. BBC correspondent
ho other dny , after a visit to the War do-
lartmont. He continued :
"Dan I-amout Is not onljseoMtary of war
he Is President Cleveland's private sccro-
arv Just as much as lie was from March 4 ,

\bout what U going on. Ilo miy
tavo the president's confidence , but
Mr. Cleveland never tolls him anything
except , of course , that ho is receiving Cillers
today or Is busy and does not want to bo
disturbed , or something of that sort. When
ever Mr. Cleveland has any private business
; o bo attended to in New York or elsewhere
ic sends for Secretary him one , and Lllt'.o
Dan comes and goes. Lament is the smartest
man In the cabinet , and the president knows
It better than anybody else. Like- all men
with active minds and good sense , ho is Iho
most approachable. It is easy to see Lament
nt any time , but It is like passing through
the eve of a needle to see ono of thrccor four
members of the cabinet at any tlmo on any
subject.

"It is wonderful the confidence President
Cleveland has in Lament and the affection
there Is between the two men. There Is
between them as wide a dilTersnce in appear
ance nnd temperament as it would be possi
ble to lind In two men , there being no pos
sible resemblance between them at any
point. Laiiumtr is confiding and companion
able , while the president seems to bo sus
picious and hcrmitliuc. It is like Robinson
Crusoe and his man Friday. Mr. Cleveland
Is so queer in his liUos and uishkcs and so
diflldentas to the friendship of the men
with whom ho comes in contact that ho
si-ems to fairly revel in the affection tie has
for Lamont. Dan is about the only man the
president ever confides in. and men in con
gress are beginning to appreciate this fact ,
and when ttiey want to send a message to
the president they go directly to the secre
tary of war. "
Senntor Camorous Methnilg *
Senator Don Cameron was probably cut
out for nn editor. It will bo recalled that
his twenty-minute speech in favor of silver
nnu advising congress respecting llnaneia
legislation , delivered just before the seriate
panied the bill unconditionally repealing the
silver purchasing law , was full of originality
and suggestion from the first word to the
last. It read as though the night editor hai
run his blue pencil through every superflu
ous word , and senators who took issue with
the Pennsylvania statesman were franlc to
compliment him upon his powers of con
ucnsation and originality.
Considerable inquiry has oeen made as tt
Senator Cameron's worKtng methods , anc
they so much resemble those of the modern
editor that he evIdontU1 missed his calling
Ho know for sotno weeks lieforo ho prepared
his silver speech that he was going to speak
upon that subject , but he deferred until t"ho
last moment the work of putting his speech
into definite form. The day before ho spoke
ho was sitting at his dessc in the senate read
ing , when suddenly ho was s ruck with an
inspiration for work. Casting about he saw
lusi stenographer. andibecJtoning him , said :
"Come with mo ; 1 want to do some work. "
The two men went into n committee room.
Immediately the senator began to dictate
his speech. Mo spoke deliberately , but ho
r.ovcr stopped until ho had exhausted his
subject. It is said the senator , in looking
over the manuscript for its correction , tiovcr
changed a word or altered a phrase.

It would seem that the average
reader as well as the casual bus
iness man had lost sight of the
most important element in the strug
gle over the new tariff bill. Llko the indi
vidual in a burning building wtio tries to
save himself and forgets the destruction
which may befall others , there is a disposi
tion shown on every hand for individuals to
have their ow interests looked after while
the superstructure which covers all is
falling.
A democratic member of the house com
mittee on rules who knows the underlying
principles of every measure which comes before
fore congress , because of ho must necessity
bo one of those who pass upon ttie motives ,
says It is the intention , if the democratic
nnrtv tvinQ nnnthni- ! tnrIn ISOfi tn io ionl
the Wilson tariff law , or radically amend
it for the purpose of adopting further
strides in the direction of free trade.
Speaker Crisp said to a colleague the other
day that the enactment into law of the Wil
son bill was but the beginning of the end ;
that it was the first step in the direction of
the "Bntisli system , " meaning absolute free
trade nnd the raising of revenues tor the
support of the government by internal taxa
tion.
Vloir * or tliu Itepulillcuiif.
There has been scarcely any one , not ex-
ceptlng the o.ost ultra republicans , who
really bulleved that the democrats would
have the audacity to attempt free trade per
so if they won over such a great victory.
The republicans have believed that the dem
ocrats would place a great many articles
upon the t'roo list and reduce to the lowest
| x > lnt which would produce revenues
of any Importance the duties upon otiicr
articles. It scorned almost beyond sanity to
suppose or declari that any party would
attempt to institute in a republic peopled
by such brains and sinew as are American
citizens the British system of free trade nnd
Internal taxation. But there cannot no > v bo
tlio slightest doubt that the democratic
party intends to carry out to the full extreme
that principle.
President Cleveland , the other day. In
commenting upon the Wilson bill , said that
after this became law t lie party "must go
steadily forward , " meaning that the free
list inujt bo enlarged and the customs duties
reduced. Of course it would bo impractica
ble to attempt the adoption ot the Dritish
system by the adoption of ono , two or even
three measures , In the first place sevor.il
hundred million dollars of revenue must bo
annually raised to meet the expenses of the
government , and tlio readjustment must
como by degrees. In the second place It
would catiso a revolution to go upon a freci
trade basis at ono step ; the people must bo ,
educated up to that joint ,
There is eroat expectancy upon the part of
the moat radical democrats in congress rela
tive to the operation of the Wilson bill under
law. Tho.v expect a reversion of their po-
lllicul victory of last year , and maUo no se
cret of the fact that they anticipate defeat
in the congressional elections next year ; but
they really and confidently and consistently
beli'ivo that the bill will operate so success-
jully and become so popular in la .v that thuy
will sweep the country in 1IWX The demo
crats make no bunos of their Intention to

' 31(10)1 ) lixrltrinrnt.
Itocunvmi , N. Y. , Dec. 2. , A special to
the Herald from Mount Morris says : There
was great excitement nt Rt Patrick's church
Sunday night at 1o'clock mass. It was
caused by some remarks made by Hev.
Charles Flaherty , who , for Iho past ten
years nnd up to less than a year ngo , has
had charge of this church , bat who was re
moved after his trial nnd conviction for
criminal Intimacy with a yoimg girl of his
parsonage. After mass had been said last
night by Kev. Mr. Day , who now has charge
of this church , nnd while 'the ' usual custom
of Christmas offering was being taken. Hev.
Charles Flaherty passed up the center aisle
to the altar rail , and , facing the congrega
tion , spoke in substanco.as follows :
"One vear ago tonight I wcs nt this altar
as your priest , v/hilo tonight 1 am convicted
and under sentence to a condemned man's
coll. There is n man tn this church tonight
who was instrumental in my conviction , and
he is Cornelius l eary. This man came here
tonight with no sacred intention , and why
ho is hero I do not know. Tlio sentiment of
this congregation is that he leaves this
church. "
At this point cries of "put him out" were
heard. Cornelius Leary arose anil said : "If
Charles Flaherty or any of his friends at
tempt to eject me from this church. I will
leave work for the coroner in the morning. "
No nttompt was made , however , to put
Mr. Leary out. Father Flaherty continued
' 'Mr. harbored
speaking , saying : Leary
Mary Sweeny ( the girl who made the
charges which resulted In his conviction )
for several weeks previous to the trial ,
schooling her in what to say in order to
briuc about my conviction. "
The congregation was quieted with dif
ficulty by their priest. This morning at
earlv mass Father Flaherty made remarks
similar to Sunday night , but there was no
excitement.

WASHINGTON. Uoc. S.Y A subject which
will receive some consideration : it tlio hands
ol ttic committee on appropriations of tlio
house at this session of congress Is embodied
in the bill Introduced u.v Representative
Snycrs. its chMrm.in , cntittoaA Hill to
Hepcnl Curtain I.nws Uelulln ? to Permanent
anil Indefinite Appropriations. " Hilis havins ;
this object In view have appeared regularly
it urine the past ten years , but for various
reasons tho.v have failed of enactment. The
objeit of rcpcnlins thcsn tiermancnl appro
priations and having concross pass upon the
matters covered by then'each year is that
it will conduce to a more thorough and care
ful examination of the estimates "than was
obtainable under the present system by whicn
accounts are audited nnd passed upon by the
accounting ofilces , and where no opportunity
Is left for scrutiny by concressional commit
tees. " At the same time objection is mailo
npalnst the changes proposed by tlio bill be
cause of the Injustice tnat would result to
claimants entitled to amounts paid them
under the present system without recourse
to specific congressional legislation.
Tlio bill now before the committee ex
cludes from its provisions various laws
therein specified. Including the sinking fund
and others , the appropriations under which
amount to many millions of dollars , roughly
estimated at about one-third of the total
permanent appropriations. The total annu.tl
permanent appropriations for IsM wornJUKI-
4'I.OSO , and the estimates for Ib0.i sire $101.-
IM.Gsfl. The committee has referred the
jill to Secretary Carlisle for his views oa
the chances proposed by it. and the several
iceounUng officers of the department will bo
isked to submit their opinion before any
recommendation Is made In the matter by
the secretary.
AUvij-4 Siipinrtotl by the Treasury.
Ten years ago Secretary Manning , in a
communication to congress on this subject ,
expressed the opinion that while the general
features appeared to bo sucli as ought to rn-
ceivo the sanction of the department , lie
was confronted with such a diversity of
opinion on the part of tlic accounting ofllccrs
on the ctiiietitij- the law in tiio form then
presented that ho felt reluctant to advance
any views other that , to say that the general
proposition to substitute specilic or annual
appropriations lor those of a permanent or
indefinite nature met with Ins approval.
The matter was brought to the attention
of the department oflicially again In ISvi
and its opinion requested regarding the
chances proposed. It aopoars , however ,
from the records that no opinion was ex
pressed at that time , Acting Secretary
Thompson merely transmitting the reports
of the several accounting ofU-ors on the bill ,
and a statement of expenditures called for
in the bill.
Again , in 1SOO the matter was referred to
the Treasury department and Secretary
\Vmdom wrote a letter in which ho said an
examination of the law under which such
appropriations provided developed the fact
that a large portion of the indefinite appro
priations should stand without repeal upon
the principle of economy and dispatch in tno
work of the government as now performed
as well in equity to claimants to relieve
them of the hardships of awaiting annual
appropriations by congress in many instances
of money belonging to them , but covered in
the tro-isury of tlio United states as miscel
laneous reports , which should be paid on de
mand. Moreover , he said , a law of general
character repealing these appropriations
and na.nins the exceptions was madvisaole.
Any such law should name specially the ap
propriations to 1)3 repealed.
LONDON'S GREAT BRIDGE.
It ItiiiiltH Among tlio lVurlil'4 Orootosl
.Struct urc .
The Tower bridge , now In the coin-so
of construction ucros. * the Thames at the
London tower , is ono of the greatest
structures in the world. The Forth
bridge may properly bo considered u
veutor achievement in many respects ,
for it spans u tempestuous strait on a
principle far more daring , and is greater
both in height nnd length ; but , saving
this single exception , no other bridge
can cliiim to rank with the beautiful
structure that connects Tower Hill with
Uorselydown Stairs.
Tlio Brooklyn bridge towers by far
overtop those of the Tower bridge , and
the very novel construction of thebrigdo
and its workmanship and great span
places it in the front ranks of the arch
itectural wonders of the world. Its
cost , including approaches , was esti
mated at $ 't,7oO,000 , but these figures
will be largely exceded. and the final
cost will probably not fall far short of
* . " > ,000,000. But if the bridge fulfills the
expectations of its designers , oven this
largo sum , to which must be added the
heavy annual cost of the hydraulic
machinery and the expenses of main
tenance , will have been wisely expended ,
for then the continual congestion of
London bridge , and its consequent in
calculable waste of time will have been
avoided.
The basoulo principle , upon which the
Tower bridge is designed , is now first
employed in lanHim. ljut succinctly it
describes a bridge whoso roadway lifts
tonllow the passage of objects of greater
height a drawbridge , in fuel , on the
tilting principle sometimes used in
mcdlceval military architecture , or
again , to descend to homely comparison ,
something of the seesaw idea. The
bridge is in throe spans , with two great
masonry piers rising from the bed of the
river. At this point tint Thames is not
less than 1)10 ) feet broad , and the depth
of water in midchannul varies , accord
ing to the tides , from thirty feet to
thirty-flvo feet , six inches. 'At a dis
tance of 270 feet from either bank the o
.great piers 201 foot in length and 100
foot broad are built , rising from
foundations twenty-seven feet below the
river l > ed , excavated in caissons through
the London clay. Those two piora alone
cost , including staging , 8350.010. Tlio
mas-mry is of finely iointed Cornish
granlto , lined internally with brick
work.
Each pier contains a great chamber in
which worlu the heavily weighted balance -
anco of the lower roadway loaf , each ol
these twoleave.s weighting llttlo short o :
1MX ( ) tons. Wlion the two Icavej , each
100 foot long , are closed , the lower
roadway of the bridge is practicable for
all kinds of tratlle , but the space of
thirty feet only between roud.vay and
high water is inaulliciont to allow of
masted vessels passing. It is to allow
tall whips to jmas that the drawbridge
principle corner into play. The powerful
hydraulic machinery placed at the Sur
rey bide of the bridge is cspublo of rais
ing the 2,000 tons of iron and btcol com-
pjsing this inovabln roadway in two
minutes , and it iscoiifidently stated that
the opening of the roadway , the pa aago
of a ship and the closing again will taku
only five jnirnitod.
Wheeled traOio would lw delayed for
that space of time , while the foot paajon-
gors will ascend by staircases or by lifts ,
which will carry thirty pordom at a
time , to the two parallel bridges that
cross the center apau at u height of 1H5
fcotabovo high water murk , descending
again to the level of the fixed roadway
nt the sidcv The erntor drawbridge
and the grout t iworsllint carry the llxed
footbridge * are the great and tlfotlti *
