Washington, Jan. 22, 1894: Chairman Wilson has aarpneed ftome people by the adroitness he has displayed in piloting bis tariff bill through the amemdment rocks. He has tun aground bat oncewhen the Hoaue voted down an amend meut endorsed by the Ways and Means committee, proposing to postpone until next tall the time tor the free wool clause of the bill to take effect aud adopted one making that clause go into effect upon the pahpag of the bill. An attempt will be made to drop the sugar bount, substituting a tax on Hogai; also iu diop the bounty leaving su gar free. Attempts will also be made to put irou aud ooal ou the dutiable list, and to make the income tax au amendment to the tariff bill. AU of thete changes are opposed by the Wrtja aud Means committee, aud ctmtriuau Wilson is confident that noue of them will be made.allhougb ueveral ot his colleagues ou the committee are in doubt as to the eugar clause and the income tax amendment. It is understood that the lepuol cau vote will be cast eol idly for the income tax amendment uot because they favor it, but be caune they believe its adoption will weaken the eutire bill iu the Senate. The republicans iu the House are not voting on their convictions just now, but to develop democratic die seutiop. Senator Morgan gave ex -Minister Steven?, who at last found time be tween his alleged bad health and nis lecture eugagtnieuts to appear before the Senate committee ou Foreign Relations aud give hie tes timony, a uiot rigid cross-exatmna tiou concerning bis coudact while U.

Under ordinary circumstances the impudent and in sulting letters written by Piesident Dole of tbti provisional government to Minister Willis would arouse great public indignation, but what could he expected when publicans in prominent United States papers are considered. Auy sort of misrepresentation seems to go dowu with the anti administration papers. For in stance. ' Mr. Hastius, who was in charg of the Hawaiian legatlou here duriug Minister Thuiston's ab seuce, was uot invited to the Htate dinner given by President aud Mrs. Cleveland to the diplomatic corps, and straightway the auti-adtninisi nation pa pei a made it the basis for a lot of filly stories alleging that the invitation ws withheld because the administration was unifier dly to the preeeut Hawaiian goetu ment. Au inqoiry at the Sate De partmeut, through which these in vitations ate always sent, would have shown the coucoctors if these stoiieu that liastiugs did not fill an official position which entitled him to an iuvitatton, but seueatioW, uot fact.", are what tbase people want.

There were mora people who desired to pay their re spect8 to her -than attended the crushes at the public receptions held by her. when she was a bride, and hba received them just as gracionly as aberiid wheu the whole tiresome lusiness was au enjoyable novelty to her. A member of the cabinet who was asked what he thought of (be acj veie criticiaui publicly made by democrats in Cougie.srt of the pro posed b nd issue, said : "I ginat the right, ot tiee speech which I demand for myself to eif eiy man, but I must sav that, these criticisms would have cmae with better grace had the men who indulge in them shown any real disposition to prevent the issue of bonds in the only practical manner by providing the money Jbat tiey knew as well as secretary Carlisle did the Treasury must have if it would ! pi df frfidivK !,,eJ'y- ; turu I '!
