THE PRESS-VISITOR, WILLIS G. BBIGQS . . City Editor SATURDAY March 5. ' WASHINGTON LETTER. What la Happening in the Capital of Our Country. (From our Regular Correspondent.) Washington .March 4, 1898. ' That no Immediate action is expected on the Maine catastrophe was shown by the departure for Cuba, this week, ot a party Including Senators Thurs ton, Money and Oallinger, and Repre sentatives Amos J. Cumminga and Wil liam Alden Smith. These gentlemen are going directly to Havana on a pri vate yacht, for the purpose of doinn a little investigating on their own hook, and they expect to get information that will be useful when the matter gets before Congress. They expect to be gone about ten days. There is quite a stir anions members of the House over a report that Czar Reed Intended to try to rush the rest of the appropriation bills through and to force an adjournment of Congress jn order to prevent a declaration of war or any other action on Cuba. A paper was at once circulated by Republicans among Republicans pledging the sign ers to vote against adjournment under any circumstances before satisfactory action had been taken on the Cuban question, and enough signers have al ready been obtained to block any ad journment scheme, with the ai.l of the Democratic and Topulist voles, which have been promised. A bill for the conditional repeal of the Federal tax on currency issued by State banks has been introduced by Senator Piatt, of New York, inm-h to the surprise of Democrats, who have at various times sought the repeal of that tax, which they have always considered unjust. Mr. Piatt s bill authorizes Slate banks to deposit with the I'niied States Treasurer the bonds of any State, city or county anil to receive in exehance circulating notes to the extent of SO per cent of the deposits and To per cent of the capital stock of the bank. The securities to be held in trust for the redemption of the bank's clrcuilntim; notes. Just as United Stales bonds are now held for national bank notes. It was officially announced this week by Secretary Alger that the govern ment relief expedition to the Klondike miners hd been abandoned, and au thority to sell the stuff purchased, in cluding the reindeer, has been asked of Congress. No official announcement has been made to that effect, but it i stated that it Is now fully known that the whole business was a systematic scheme on the part of certain sharpers to "do" the government. RAILWAY NOTES. The new schedule on the run to Nor folk puts two of the conductors hai k in Greensboro who have not been here in some time. Capt. Witherspoon and Capt. Will.
