CONGRESS MEETS Tho President's Message ia Being Read Today. THE COMITTEE 05 RULES IN SESSION There is a Light Attendance of the United States Lawmakers A New Financial Policy Will be IMsscusKed at This 1 Scbhiou Other Ituslness. Wabiiingtox, December 3. At 9 o'clock today the house of representa tives convened in the final . - session of the fifty-third congress. , When its term runs out on the 4th of March next it will have been in session for fifteen months divided as follows: From Au gust 7th, 1892, to November 3rd, 1893; from December 4th, ISO;!, to August 2Sth: 1894, and from December 3rd, 1894, to March 4th, 1895. For a day or two it is more than prob able there will be no absolute necessity for the presence of a quorum. Beside the reading of the message of President Cleveland, it is not likely that anything else will be done today. The house has heard the announcement of the death of Hon. Myron il. Wright, lata a representative fro.i the 15th district of Pennsylvania, who was re-elected to the 5 It b e-.mgress, and died four veara after tht e election. So 'programme of business has been j arranged by the committee on rules. Speaker Crisp and J!r. Catch logs have not consulted the minority members, Messrs Reed and Burrows. A meeting of the committee will be held this after noon and they will doubtless agree up on some line of action. Among the bills that ure likely to come up are the Nicaragua canal bill : aud the bill to permit the railroad companies to pool passenger and freight business under regulatiqn by the Ititer-State Commerce commission. A new financial policy, the recent bond issue, and the investi gation of Judge Ricks of the United States court from the northern district of Ohio, in relation to his action as clerk f the court, will 1 doubtless be discussed. J SPRECKLES EXPLAINS. Why the Sugar iletlneries in the Kast Have Closed, San Fkak Cisco, December 8. In reference to the Associated Press inter view with H. O. Havemeyer, president of the Sugar Refining company, Claus Speckles said: "I have read the . Have meyer interview, and I understand the situation in the Eastern states. Have meyer and the people control the sugar trade of all the country east of the Mis souri river, and the California Refinery controls pretty much all west of the river. I think Havemeyer is right when he says that closing his refineries will throw 50,000 people out of work. Th reason they are to close is this: They cannot compete with foreign sugars. The administration has effect ually shut but the sugar refining busi ness in this country. German granula ted sugar is laid down at New York at $3.50 the hundred pounds, and raw or crude sugar costs laid down there 83.56 the hundred pounds. That leaves a margin of six one hundredths of a cent a pound on which to pay refining ex penses and make profits. The thing is simply absurd. In the east they pay refinery hands $1.50 per day. In Ger many the wages are but $1.13. The trade cannot stand the difference. The German sugar is beet sugar refined abroad. This market is now bring-ing a great deal of Chinese sugar that is re fined by two English firms in Hong kong. They use raw sugar from Ba tavia and the l'hillipp'm Islands. Those refineries employ coolie labor .at 16 cents per day. There- is only one remedy, and that is protection." THE PRESIDENT'S HEALTH. lie Does Not Dare to Venture Oat In Damp Weather. Wasiiin'Oton", December 3.' Owine to the unfavorable weather Saturday it was thought best for the president to remain at Woodley and not venture -out, and the cabinet meeting was abandoned. It is also stated that there is no business that needs the attention of the cabinet. If there are matters upon which any of the cabinet desire to consult the president they will drive to Woodley. Private Secretary Thur ber says that the president is improv ing and is much better, and it was only because the damp weather was thought to have a bad effect upon his rheuma tism that the trip to the White house was abandoned.

Howe, attorney for the Order of the Iron Hall, asking that the allowance to Hawkins and Smith, at torneys for Receiver Faiiey, and to Re ceiver Failey, be set aside, was argued on demurrer before Judge McMaster yesterday. Referring to the allowance allowed the lawyers and receiver Attor ney Howe said that their enormity was almost incomprehensible, and that th method of calculation was not clear. The attorney said : "When it was con sidered that the receiver ; did not per sonally perform all the duties, but had an army of clerks at his back and will, at a great amount of expense to the trust, had attorney galore in the city of Indianapolis who have been paid over S5(S,000 for their services, had at torneys all over the country at an ex pense of over $16,000, an allowance to the receiver seems still "more enormous. But when it. is considered that at no time in two years has there been, ac cording to the records of this court, less than o00,000 deposited in the bank of which the receiver and Ida bondsmen were the owners, enormous is hardly the appropriate word." j Attorney Howe did not charge fraud, j The attorneys for the receiver and hia 1 legal advisers also addressed the court. saying an 1 investigation ot the court allowances was not opposed, but asked a few day's time in which to prepare justmeation eviuences. l ae court will give a decision in a few days.

Sugges tions have been received, says Comp troller of the currency. Eckels, in his annual report which will be submitted to congress today, from many eminent financial sources, that the whole ques tion of a banking and currency system ought to be referred by congress to a committee to be created by law, ap pointed by the president and clothed with proper authority. "A committee non-partisan in its character," he says, "composed of men of eminent abilty could unquestionably devise a currency system sound in every partciular, and one which would commend -itself to every interest of the country. It could largely take the question out of jjolitics, and have it considered simply in its business aspects and merits alone; but if the present congress is to enact a law upon the subject, the appoint ment of a committee could 9avail noth ing. If however, nothing more defi nite can be accomplished the question of a creation of such a committee ought to be considered and acted upon." NORTH CAROLINA'S VOTE.

When every one -is joining in the national Thanksgiving day and .giving praises for possessing the benefits of the great country we live in, it is a question of interest to know how much money it took to discover this land for the finding of which 60,000,000 of peo ple are expressing their gratitude. It is not as colossal a sum as one would think, especially in comparison with money values to day, that is, if we are to judge at all from the items of Columbus' expedition. It cost only 1,400,000 Spanish maravedis, which is about ?7,5oo, according to our present standard. Think of it' Only two thirds of the amount rich men give to-day as a sim ple legacy. About one sixth of the president of the United State's salary and less ihan one hundredth of what Mr. Vanderbilt r3as for one of his houses. In the archives preserved in Madrid it stated that &350 was given to Christo pher Columbus for his services. He had two captains under him who re-, ceived $195 each, and the sailors got I3.50 a month, besides their rations. The rest of the $7, 500" covers -the cost of ships and fittings. It seems rather odd that the desire for so small a sum on Columbus'! part should have thrown the treasuries of Spain into such a flutter, and canse Is abella, the Queen of Spain, to have been compelled to pawn her crown jewels to raise this amount. When people read of all the grandeur of those old-day kingdoms, one naturally thinks of the people spending millions of dol larst but they evidently knew nothing of luxuries or vast enterprises, as the men living now do. There certainly are no such investments in these days as to advance $7,500 for millions and millions. Salisbury Herald.

The train upon which engineer Clark took his last ride seemed to be under an unlucky decree of fate last week.

All went w ell until they had traveled about four miles beyond Henderson, when the train was wrecked by coming in contact with an imperfect switch. The engine and thirteen cars went down an embankment. The cars were badly smashed. The engine left the rails but stopped on the cross ties. The tender left the track first and rolled completely over the engineer as it went down the embankment. The engineer fireman and breakeman were seriously hurt. The mails were delay ed about four hours Monroe Journal. Two Lives Saved.
