Washington letter From our Regular Correspondent. , - Fifty or sixty Senators and members hare railed on the President daring lhe; past week. They were met with the cordial salutation, "Now, then, look a here, boynl we've got 'em just where we want 'em. JrVe must show 'em that we can do things. We must prove that we know enough to manage the trusts and keep 'em from robbing tbe A merican people. Wa must demonstrate t h a t , we can build the PanamaCanal and pas laws to Improve the Fil ipinos. I've read my meseaae to tbe Cabinet and they say 'all rightl, By the way, let me show you "At this point be has taken the most con spicuous Senators and mem bers aside an4 read - to them bits of the document. rj He is somewhat worried a bout publishing the figures obtained; by Garfield, as to Jibe business of corporations Be says he does not want to injoitt'b may be necessary to maintain se crecy regarding the.resnlts of investigation's. '.But then, what can be done' with the clamorous public, who want to? knwr you. know? The Pitsident wilj advocate Build ing:ttJB.trppger?navy afltj tak ing a more protblnentpart in the International Peaee Con gress , at The H a g u e.' Of course ntronger navies are necesswry in order to give an excuse for the Peace ConirreRs He is therefore nnderstood as backing up Secretary Mor ton in bis demand for a 500, 000,000 navy, With such a force afloat upon the eea.nnd an army in proportion it is believed that this country wduld'be able to meet any peaceable nation nt least half way. ! The message will review tbe work done during tbe year by tbe Panama Canal Com mission and will sbowthecon ditionof the work to date, Of course no dirt has been shoveled yet. but the figures and diagrams of the chief en gineer are interesting, and the President will undertake to conjecture . when tbe real work of excavation will begin. Tne Congressional Com m i t tee on Isthmian . Aflairs, beaded by Hepburn of Iowa, Is in Pa nama today bfing escorted around by General Davis, Minister - Barrett and John Findley Wallace, engineer-in-charge. This isn't a bad sea son to be in Panama, and when tbey get on the floor of the House again tbe members will probably report every thing lovely. .Whether an ex tra session will be called N for tbe new Congress to meet on March 4 at tbe expiration of the present, is yet an unsolv ed problem. Governor Cum mine, Representative Foss and forty or fifty others are perfectly sure that the tariff question should be tackled without delay, but the stand patters are believed to out number them and at their head the President himself. It is dollars to doughnuts that, though there may be some el frrveeent sjieeches, the ques tion of reciprocity 'will not be vigorously taken in hand for another yenr. Umleterrwl by the repent popular iiiHnifestation 1h President's tncsHiige will be bandied without gloves whn it is let loose in the Senate in the presence of such Demo crats as Teller, Carraack and V atterson, and in the tlouse by the stormy petrel Cock ran and the hasber-up of uncon sidered trifles Claude Kitchin. It is said that the President's conversation borders on pro fanity when either.Kitchin or Carmavk is mentioned in bis presence; and .that . he and Or mack do not hesitate to say of each other in tbe words of Philip van Artevelte'-Heis a rash, inconstant, vehement man." ! It- ialikplv nnnno-h tliAr dm rpat,mr annninM, !inl ,li cussion durinz the winter to . take the whole tariff sched ules in hand, including the Philippine and.Porto .Rican tariffs, , and report , a year hence as to any need ot mod ification of existing statutes. Senutor Valium, Fairbanks, Forakes, and Lodge are said to favor this plan. Col, Browniow who was dis missed by Post-mastei Gener al Wynne nnd wbo appealed to the Civil Service Commis sion has been turned down by that body which informs him that it has no power co interfere when a dismissal was mad) "for . any cause which will promote the effi ciency of the service.". As this is tbe very sam- la ngn age with which Miss Rebecca Tay lor, was removed it shows that General black is very careless in his use of gram mar. It would certainly be idiotic to iutentionaily re move a public officer for a cause which "would promote the efficiency of the service." The cause of removal is indo lence or immortality, or in subordination' Do these pro mote the efficiency of tbe ser vice General Black? In oth er words haven't you said ex actly the opposite of what you meant to say? Did you not intend to say thatremov als can be properly made for any cause which diminisnes the efficiency of the service? GRIP QUICKLY KNOCKED OUT, ' Some weeks ago during the ge vere weather both my wife and my nelf contracted severe colds which speedily developed into the worst kind of la grippe with all its miser, able symptons." says Mr. J, S. Egleston of Maple Landing Iowa, 'Knees and joints aching, muscles sore, head stopped up, eyes and nose running, with alternate spells of chills and fever. ,We began using Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, aid ing the same with a dose of Cham berlain's Stomach and Liver Tab lets, and by its liberal use soon com pletely knocked out the grip." These Tablets promote a healthy ac lion of the bowels liver and kidneys which is always beneficial when the system is congested by a cold or attack of the grip. . For sale by I. M. Moretz.
