W.SniN(iTON NEWS AN 1) NOTES.
Washington. Feb. 16. lbSo.
The thrf-:iu-ned extra session of Coa--r-
has ht-eu the chief subject of spec
uUli ju durintr the week on Capitol hill.
There is a (inference of opinion as to
whether it will be called or not. Sena
tors arc generally of the belief that there
need be no extra session, while mem
bers of the House think it cannot be i
averted. A Senator remarked to me j
yesterday that he never in all his expe
rience in Congress, saw the appropria- j
tions in better shape, and that they
could get them all out cf the way by j
the fourth of March. Half and hour
afterward I heard a Representative de- '
clare that the appropriations were in 1
very bad condition and he did not see
how they could be passed in time to
avoid an extra session. Then there is
an impression among the Democrats
that ihe Republicans are working
secretly to force an extra session, whiie
the Republicans believe there is aclique
of Democrats who are trying to bring
about the same result. The question
was sprung so unexpectedly that many
Congressmen are alarmed at the proba
ble frustration of their well laid plans
for the coming summer. Senators
would be less inconvenienced than
members by a call of the forty-ninth
Congress. Many of them live in Wash
ington, and would under any circum
stances" spend the greater part of their
summer here.
The dynamite bill died a quiet death,
the dynamite sympathizers were de
prived of an opportunity to declare
their views on the floor of Congress;
and the expected quarrel was avoided,
and the House of Representatives got
out of tho dvnamite business without
committing itself in any way. The
House foreign affairs committee voted
that it is beneath the dignity of the
HouRe to pass ft dynamit re80iution
similar in tone to that passed by the
Senate. It behooves the Senate to look
to its dignity after this rebuke. Ike 1
upper cnamoer nas oeen consiuereu
very strong in that line, neretotore,
while the House has had a bad name
for easy morals random manners.
Another House committee has just
taken action that will be verv disap
pointing to gentlemen who contested
seats in previous Congresses, and who
lia hied claims to be remunerated for
the exnse of their contests. There
are many of these claims, and many of
their owners are now in the city, think
ing to get them through Congress in the
hurry of the closing days of the session.
The committee ha decided to report
only those, claims where the contests i
were for seats in the present House. j
Mr. Cleveland's friends and advisers,
are expecting and hoping that he will
announce his Cabinet within the pres
ent week. They think it best that the
hopes, anxieties and disappointments
OI Pir " Bnoui? De over wun 48 800n
t. , j r- -i'
arations may be made by the fourth of
Jlarch. Mr. Cleveland intimated to a
ci-rtain statesman that he would make
his slate public by the twenty -second of j
February and that all the names would
be announced at once. All politicians
in Washington think Mr. Bayard will
be the next Secretary of State.
A great deal of interest is manifested
in the work of preparing the new pen
sion building for the inaugural festivi
ties and many have expressed doubt as
to whether it would be ready by the
fourth. But one of the managers said
vest rday. "they need not fear, every

An unusual occurrence is reported by
Jackson Miller, who lives near Burling
ton, Vt. ''A pcVtlfbn of his farm, to the
extent of amaqre, has sunk over thirty
feet. The surface is depressed, but re
tains nearly its normal appearance. The
earth upon all sides of the depression is
almost perpendicular, and the tops of
trees that went down can be reached by
persons standing upon the brink. The
theory is that springs undermined the
ground, and the effect of the frost
caused it to sink.

The hone industry of the country is an
important one. The four feet of an or
dinary ox will make a pint of neatefoot
oil. Not a bone of any animal is thrown
away. Many cattle shin-bones are
shipped to Europe for the making of
knife handles, where they bring $40 per
ton. The thigh bones are the most val
uable, being worth ?60 per ton for cut
ting into toothbrush handles. The fore
leg bones are worth 5?30 per ton, and are
1 made into collar but ns, parasol han-
dies and jewelry, though sheep 8 legs
are the staDle for parasol handles. The
water in which the bones are boiled is
reduced to glue; the dust which comes
from sawing the bones is fed to cattle
and poultry; and all bones that cannot
be used as ncted, or for bone-black,
used in refining the sugar we eat, are
made into fertilizers, and made to help
enrich the soil. As regards waste, it is i
the story of the pig: Nothing is lost ex
cept the squeal.
