I Is I quite certain that the Omaha post-
ofce case will not bo settled until aCer thecur
return of Secretary of Agriculture J. Sterling
Morton It hal been understood
I un < ersto for some
time that the opinion or Secretary Morton
will be asked by the l'ostomco department
officials , and thaI. while his opinion will not
entrely control the appointment of a 118t-
master , It wi nt the some time bo consid-
ered In the final selecton and , will be reo
gudOt with some dderence. Theta Is a well
defined rumor to the erect that Mr. Morton Is
protracting his visit In Nebraska longer than
had aL first been antcl Led , for the purpose
or making a thorough examination of the
4 mater to enable him 10 come to a better
conclusion n 10 his courpo In this case. I
can be stated with some assurance that sOle
one yet unnamed Is lkely 10 gel the ap.
polntment , as IJresenL appearancE strongly
pint to such a conclusion. Samuel Cotner

proof on file In his depdrtment to have been
dlprved : hy UnIted Slates mIlitary forces or
- their ponies. and have never been paid for
their lass. This amendment Is otereU ( at
the solicitation at Congressman orerc of
South Dakota who endeavored to have this
provision made In the Indian approprlatlor
bill when I was before the appropriaton .
The house committee on election ot presi
dent and representaLves In congress ordered I
a favorable report to be made al , the resolu
ton introduced by Congressman Dryan pro I
viding that after January I , 1898. no person m ,
once elected to the prcsdency : shall be etlgtbb 3 ,
to that ofco to succeed himself. elstblo I
Congressman Pickier was today Inrormed I ,
that the president , In complIance with his ,
request , has recommended the payment of
$200,000 ot the principal belonging to the
Sisseton Indians of South Dalcota. Mr
Pickier made his request In order that the
money may bo available at oiice and the
Sisseton Indians , who have been sufrerint
from the cold this winter , mAY be enabled
to use their allowance before the regular '
tmo or payment , and thus manage to get
along more comfortably during the remain
trig months or the winter.
4o INDIANS OPPOSE THEm AGENT. ,
: , . Congressman Pickie In company with the
five IndIan representatives or time Yankton
Sioux oC South Dakota had 1 long confer
enco today with the commissioner or Indian
alTaira. The Indians presented the grievances
which they have come to Wnahmjngton 1n an
endeavor to have aleviated , The most Important -
portant sUbject to receIve consideration } vas
the contemplated removal or Indian Agent
Smith , which the Yanlcton Sioux want con
summated Illcdlltely. Smith Is a retire U
retred
army omcer. The Indians state to Commissioner I. :
sioner BrownIng that the tenure of the
omen or Agent Smith Is not ! t all agreeable
to the Sioux , and that \ hey are hero to mao
In effort to have him removed. They stated
that Smith Is 1 man who Is too pompous
dlld unapproachable to mingle with and bc u-
come acquainted wIth the Indians ; that ho
bas removed half breeds from the Position is
connected with the agency , appointing In I
their stead his white relatives ; that ho also
caused to bo
Imprisoned without cause ono
of their fellow Indians and has done numerous -
ous other things which tend to make him
unpopular and disagreeable to time Indians : ,
and they therefore ask that he bo removed !
at once and seine more suitable person be
appointed In hIs steaI. These are serious
charges and It Is likely that a thorough
h "estgaton will bo had before final actic
V Is taken by the Itepartment. The acton mt
also stated that they are here to urge legi a-
laton whIch will clear up In a more eati -

W"SlNGTON , Jan 23.-The treasury
emergency was the main theme before the
senate today , and for time time being the la-
! ilan' question was laid aside. Mr. Jones
or Arkansas and ( Mr. Smith of New Jersey ,
each h representing I most influential clement
, In the majority of the senate . presented
Illans for meeting the currency complication ,
The propositions Itfer widely , Mr. Smith's
providing for a temporary bond Issue pending
an investigation by a "monetary commis-
sian , " composed cr senators , members of the
house and cIvIlians , while Mr. Jones' plan
provides for I bond Issue and conditional
restornton of slh'er. The two senator urged
their respective measures In speeches which
receh'ell close attention from a wel filled sen-
ate and crowded galleries . Mr. Turple conly
cluded his speech against the Nicaragua canal
bIl l , becoming bitterly personal at the close
against Mr. Morgan , author at the bill , and
against the measure itself , as tire consummaalt
Lon or.cheRII John , Peter Funk legislation.
1)r mnhng tire day Mr. Burrows of Michigan
lale his first appearance In time senate since
the Michigan legislature promoted him to the
tip per branch or c ngress.
The credentials of Mr. Jc ? . llan of lel-
gan for the term beginning March 4 next ,
and or Mr. Burrows In succession of tire late
Senator Stockbridge , were presented to the
senate tOla ) .

A now and practlenl turn to the Hawaiian
subject was given by Mr. lisle , republican
of Maine , who introduced an amendment to
the consular ant , diplomatic bill , providing
$500,000 for time surveyor a cable route consel
nectng . the hawaIian Islands with the United
Mr. Smith. democrat or New Jersey , then
had read a hill which attracted much ) itten.
ti on. I provl-Ies for a nonpartisan currency
commissIon of twelve members to make In.
vestgatons of fiscal questions and for an
Issue or bonds to produce revenues for the
g overnmnemit. Mr. Smith saId that he had
hopNI h to ace some soluton or the present
ctm rncflcy emno'gency. lie was convinced , however -
ever , that so little time remains for legisla-
ton that no bIll would be passed at the
p resent session. Under time circumstances
ho proposed ( this plan , which would sot on
root n full In\'ltgton with a view to
securing time proper remedy. I was do-
slrable to have 1 nonpartisan commissIon In
order that Its work might commend Isel
to the new congress.
PROVIES l'Ot A COMMISSIONER .
Senator Smith's currency bill provides that
the president shal appoint four commissioners -
sioners from civil life , 10 more than two ot
whom sllal be members or the same poULcal I
party. Tire president or the senate shaH ap-
pint four senators , no more than two or
whom shall bo members of the same arty ,
the speaker oC tire house Is to designate ) rour :
members under the same conditions. The
senators and lembers chosen Ire to be members -
b ers ot the Flr-rourth congress. These are
to bo known as the "monetary committee. "
I Is made the duty or the committee to tke
Into consideration and to investigate thor-
oughly all the various questions relating to
the currency 'so far a may bl necessary to
the establshmen t of A judicIous system or
curreacy on 1 permanent basIs. The com-
mitee Is empowered to visit different peru
pr-
tons or the country and make to congress
1 final report of the result or its Investga- congess
tons , together wih such recommendations
a It may deem to the best Interest of the
c ountry . not later than the second Monday In
December , 1895. The bill also authorIzes the
Issue I at $500,000,000 or 3 per ccnt' 'Jnd ' ! re-
leemable In gold coin at the expiration of ten
y ears.
Mr. Stewart or Nevada followed Mr. Smith
with an argument against any committees
or other means or avoiding direct action on
the currency. Mr. Stewart had read an arti-
art-
cle In the CincInnati Enquirer , addresed
dircty to the secretary or the treasury , and
arraigning him for preferring gold to silver.
Mr. Jones or Arkansas added to the Inter-
est or the question by presenting a bill whIch
has been discussed In thenance committee.
Is reading was followed wIth close attent '
ti ion , owing to the promInence oC the senator
In i shaping most or the finance committee's
work. Mr. Jones addressed the senate briefly
concorlng the currency bill ho had sub-
mitted.
DANGER OF TIE PRESENT SYSTEM.
Mr. Jones spoke or the constant danger In
present juan of Issuing bonds , which per.
mlted the banks to force an Issue , then to
tDlco gold from time treasury In order to pay
for the bonds , and thus keep up this con-
slant assault on the gold reserve and time
constant necessity for bonds.
"I am not 1 believer In bnds , " declared
Mr. Jones , "but I am willing to submit to
bonds as a mater of necessity ! S long as
there Is coupled with I a sensible , manly ,
honest recognitIon or silver. I the feeling
throughout the country In favor of silver Is
properly recognized , then I will agree to
the issue of bonds , and I will agree to I
under no other conditions. " I
Mr. Jones said It was his conviction that '
the sliver men would make 1 grave ' mistake
I they Insisted on the extreme limits or theIr
hopes The failure or the silver element to
secure concerted acton was made evident as
soon as Mr. Jones closed his remarks , as
Mr. Stewart again took time floor to argue
against the Jones bill. lie ' conceded the good
motives or the senator , but urged time bond
provision was a surrender to the banks and
the gold power
Time Nicaragua bill was then taken UII and
Mr. Turplo resumed his speech against the
measure. Mr. Turple's remarks became very
personal at one point and arraigned Mn
Morgan , who Is In charge of time bill as
cl.tlrman or the commiee on foreign rela-
tlorrs. Mr. Turplo declared he had long
chcrlshed the illusion that this chnlrmanshlp
was or the loftiest character : that It was Un-
touched and undefiled by 10der delusions
and cOlmonplace aspirations . nut this iliu-
iu-
sion was dispelled , and this lofty chmalrnran-
ship had disappeared hike a "will 0' the wisp"I
In flue mires of the San Juan
Mn . Turple proceeded to urge the mortgage I
proposed to ho given by tire company was I
diaphanoul and mere pretense The sen
ator spoke of the canal company stock as I
watered and that this whole project was a
combination or "rrauII and water. " Mr.
Turple heaped invectives on the "buhble"
mortgage and "snldo" partnersblp with the I
government , which he sold was Involved In
the canal project. There was an alostie ,
surname,1 I'eter , who had been canonized
'
But thl , Nicaragua scheme , he declared , was m
an attempt to canonIze a new St . Peter-
the "Peter Funk of legislation. " It was the
glorifIcation or the Cheap Johns or congressional -
gressional work
At the close of Mr , Turple's remarks the
senate went Into executive session , and I

'VASIIINGTON Jan 23.-There Is lIkely
to be I most interesting discussIon In the
house commitee on labor al the relative
mEits or the two plans for arbitration . for
whIch Labor Commissioner Wright and At-
torney General Oney are sponsors. The two
distnguished author or time princIpal bills
berorc the committee will speak It Is ex-
p eeled . In advocacy of their views. I they
appear theIr speeches will doubtless prove
valuable to tire literature or time sUbJect
CommIssioner Wright has a reputation beyond -
yond the limits or the United States as one
or the foremost authorItIes upon questions
concerning the interests of labor , while At-
torney General Oney Is a high authorIty
upon the legal prInciples Involved In tire
movement for arbItration. There was 1 discouraging -
couraging dearth or Interest In time arbltra-
ton question for a time among those who
might naturally bo expected to lead In the
discussion , but tine past week has brought
to t ChaIrman McGann or the labor coin-
mltee many communicatons J , g'lng evIdence
that the labor unions are awakening to time
Importance i or the mnatter .
Some or the criticisms ! lll Iomparlons : cr
the two proposed systems are 1nte.isting. !
Fault Is found In certain quarters nte'ostng. wll.
featnro or Attorney General Olney's plan
wIicin . would give the attorney Jeneral power
to apply for a receIver Who hould n'unago

pUblc
the employers and employes refuie,1 , 10 sub.
miL to arbItration disputes which thuutrncd
to Impair or did Injuriously affect the public
Interests. i Curiously enough tine crItcism publo I
passel upon the scheme Is that its tend- I
encies are socialistic and I Is tine longest
step which has been advocated by high I I ,
authority In tire direction of ' . '
aUlhorly Ilrecton go\'ernlent can.'I 'I
trol of railroads.
An objection offered to Mr. Wright's plait I '
for a commission by some laboring men was
thl a permanent salaried commissIon might
become allIed , to tire corporjittous In lb 1

members might bo counted impair to stand
