WASHINGTON LETTER. From our Eegular Correspondent At but congress it in bps sion. Promptly at" noon on Monday t bo gavel of Senator Frve, the new president of the Senate, and 'Alexander M. Do well clerk of the House, called those bodied together and the opening eiession of the Fifty Seventh Congress w.ir thereby inaugurated. In the Senate Senator Hanna was promptly recognized by the Chcirtnan and, in a few well chosen words iuformed his colleagues of the death of Prenident M-Kinley, a n d moved adjournment out of respect to the deceased. The motion carried unanimously. In the House the members ot the House were sworn in, tbe Speaker, Genpral Hender son. and the 'other officers e-. Ircted. seats chosen by kit; with the exception of thrit J6f ex-Speaker , G. 'A. Grow," wha in flccoridan:,e with precident' was permitted to ehoose his se.it ,l)efore the lottery com' inenpcd. As soon ns Sppaker Hpndprson had takpn powe sion of thp chair, he recogniz pd Rep. Grosvenor. of Ohio, who formally nnnouncen the death of the late. President, and moved that the House adjourn out of reRpect to the dead until Tuesday, his mo tion of course, carrying unan imonsly. The democratic minority, though smDll in number, is prepared for vigorous action and strenuous opposition to the pxtruvagnnt expndi tiirpfl of public funds which is characteristic of the repnbli enns when in control, of both conercssional chambers. As I have already predict ed in these letters, Roprpspn tativp Uichardnon, of Tpnn.. wa nominatpd forth Speak prnhp. a pnrply eomplimonta ry nomination, but one that enrrips with it the leadership of the democratic forces in the current rongrpss. Mr. Rirhardson'sahiliy as n parliamentarian, his rpuet but determined methods of warfare and the gentle and dignified mannpr with which he can pxconate ma oppo nents wbpn thpir indifference to thp public welfare demands it, all combine to render him exceptionally wpII qualified tor the reaponsibilitips of his position. Republican majorities in both House and Senate are too large to permit 1 ha dem ocratR taking the initiative in the introduction of needed legislation that they will per sistentlv and consistently urge the reduction of the tar iff. at least in so far as its provisions are prohibitive, whether the see that such re d action will be most surely accomplished by the ratifica tion of reciprocity treaties or by a changeof the tariff scbed ules. An especial effort w i 1 1 be made to secure the abolition of the war revenue tariff. It will be remembered that the original war revenue bill, jns titled only on the ground that this country was at war with Spain, aimed at provHing hn extra inromeol jlOO.OOO 000 per annum. Last session the republicans having an nounced that the war was o- vm an euort was made to se cure ;1 he repeal of the law, the ,democrats using everj means In their power to re lieve the peoplp of this onnec essary imrdHii, lint thpy sue ceedelon y fn so far as they compelled the republi cans to pass n measure which reduced the revpnue by f 30.- 000.000. The remaining spv pnty millions a year has con tinued'to accumulate in the Treasury until the surplus has assumed proportions which the republican Secreta ry of the Treasury has bpen forced to admit are inimicul to the wplfare of thp country. A constant effort at re- trenchmpnt in expenditures and the curtailmpnt ofex- tra'agant appropriations will be exerted and it is hop ed that unity ofaction under the direction of tin able lead er may accomplish . much a- long these lines. Legislation calculated to ontrol or 'suppress the trusts will be demanded bv the democrats and the anti trust measure which the re publicans buried in a Spnate rommittee last session, will be resuscitated and many re-, publican Congressmen will be placed in a position where ihey will be compelled to vote for it or absolutely stulity themselves and violate the pledgethey made in the recent campaign, i ne democrats re hiizh that small as may be their numbers, tlipy have the American people back of them in their fight on the trusts and they will leae no stone unturned in their ef forts to force the republican majorities to heed the peo ple's wish. At the democratic caucus held after Mr. Richardson had been nominated for spea ker, Mr. Kerr, of Pennsylva nia. for ?brk, etc., a number of resolutions were presented and eventually referred to a committee which was intro duced to report to a caucus to be held January 10th. Tbe resolutions include a condem nation of the highly protec tive features of the tariff; a condemnation of tne trusts, and of all lcgitlation which enabled American manufaetu rers to sell the 'oreign prodn cers more cheaply than to A merican consumers; and ex pression favoring "jhst and generous treatment of Porto Rico and Cuba" and an ex pression of opposition to the ship subsidy bill as presented at the last 6P8nion, and to all measures designed to use the public lunds for the bene fit of private interests. They also expressed deter mination to insist on the "sa cred force of the fundamental American rule of democratic self government" ana opposi Land, Timber and All persons desiring to sell er.

Other resolu tions provided for the inter nal government of the demo cratic minority; condemned tbe solicitation of patronage from the administration and ODposed any change in the existing standards of values, the latter resolution being fa vored by E'lster and opposed by Western democrats. x At the republican caucus which was attended by 146 members, the regular slate, as previously 'outlined in these letters was nominated and then "Pete" Hepburn made his usual attack on the 'Red rules." Hedweltonthe inordinate power which they conferred on the Speaker and protested that they violated the spirit of the Constitu tion which intended that all members should have an e- qnal footing on the floor of th House. He was opposed by Gen. Shattucof Ohio and Mr. Dalzell, the leading re publican member of the Com mittee on Rules, who had moved the adoption of the 'Reed rules.' For a time it looked as if there would be a split but republican discipline finally prevailed ana tne rules were adopted. Had Mr. Hepburn been really sincere in his op position to the rules, which made it impossible for any member to exare&s an opin ion in tbe House without hav ing first secured the perm is sion of the speaker, he would have brought up the subject on the floor of the House where democratic assistance would have rendered his ef forts successful.

The bills already introduc ed in Congress looking to u reduction of Southern repre sentation shows that there is still a sentiment among some republicans to punish thorfe Southern States that have eliminated the igno rant negro vote. It is notic- able, however, that the Pres ident made no reference what eyer in his message to the new suffrage amendment in the South, or to any particu lar phase ot the .Southern question. This would indi cate that the Congressmen who are introducing these pop-gun bills are acting on their own hook and playing to the galleries. The negro vote turns the election in Ohio, Indiana, Il linois, New York, Delaware and New Jersey, and we may expect some Congressmen who wish that vote "to cast an anchor to windward" to hold that vote in line. These revolutions probablj mean notoing, and as long as the President and Mark flonna do not declare war on our suffrage amenpment, we are safe from legislative interfer- ferance. Saw Sstth Hear.

The cas which occurred the other day in Asheville, whereby, the gallows 'was cheaten out of a victim, af fords another illustration of the beauty of our jury sys tern, A negro had killed a wo man. chopped the body to pieces. -und bid them in a trunk. The evidence was clear and the jury was satis fied that the man had CDm mitted the crime, but strange to say they were equally di vided as towhether th.eir ver dict should be for murder in tha first or second degree, They decided the matter in lot, and murder in first de ree won. When tbe manner of reaching tbe murder was made known to the presiding ludge. he very properlj set it aside. The negro was then allowed to plead guilty to murder in the second degree and received a sentence of 80 years. It does look a little strange that twelve good men from tbe county, who had sense enough to sit on a jury, would want to aecicea . case when a life was at stake by lottery. But then we are all aware, that is those of us who know any thing about juries, that intelligence is not tbe strong point of the av erage j lry. rt would help the wheels of justice to revolve moore smoothly and more rapidly if intetigence was made aqnali flea tion of jurors This would certainly be an iraprovment on the present sys tern. 1 ruth-Index.
