Senator Sherman knows when be li
up against an unsurmountablc obstacle
as well as the next one. Uo was espec
lally anxious tlmt the Senate should rati
fy the arbitration' treaty beforo bo 1 e-
came Secretary of State, and lie made
anusual efforts to bring tbo objecting
Senators around to his war of thinking,
but when he discovered that lie could
not do so, he didn't try to raise a run
pus about letting the treaiy go over to
the next sessiou. The Senate will, at
usuiil be called together in extra aessior
on the 4th of March, by the outgoing
President, to act upon nominations ol
the incoming President and it is con
tillered certain that it will remain in sea
iou until the date named by President
tfcKinley for the meeting of hot I
branches in extra session to act on the
tariff bill, But when it will act on Hit
arbitration treaty is matter of uncertain
ty. Although it was supposed thnt tin
amendments to the treaty wnul meet tlx
objections of its opponents in the Senate
it has been clearly made apparent that
such is not the case. A handful of lie
lermined Senators can stave otf the voti
an the treaty indefinitely, if so disposed
even if the requisite two-thirds favor it
Ims passed, it is ante to predict thnt there
will be few legislators remaining here.
Patriotism without reward is becoming
very rare, and no one need expect to
And it in any quantity in this Assembly.

Some of the silver men in Congress de
cline to take seriously Senator Chaud ,
ler's silver speech in favor of his rerolu
tion, declaring it to be the sense of the
Senate that it is not the policy of this
government to maiutuia the g ild stand-
ird as a permanency and that it will en
leavor to bring about tt restirali n of tin
louble or bimetallic standard at the ear
liest opportunitv. Tliey say thnt Mr.
chandler Is one of those who talk silver
etween times, but can always le count-
;,1 upon to vote gold wlieu his vole it
asoessary. The gold men regard Mr.
Chandler's speech and his resolution a
in unnecessary stirring up of a danger
us subject. If Mr. Chandlor is content-
d with his own approval, he can con
sider his spssch a succeu.
Although Speaker Heed and Ctiairmat
Cannon, of the House Appropriation)
Committee, have even gone to the extern
of making personal enemies in their ef
forts to keep down the appropriations,
t is now esrtaln that the total appropri
ations of tke' fifty fourth Congress will
txcesd those made by any previous Con
grsss sad be considerably in excras ol
one billion dollars. Mr. Cannon said ex
planatory of the heavy total of the appro
priations; '"Ho can we cut down? W
.nust obssrve the contracts which w
have entered into, and we cannot lei
public buildings remain exposed and un
JnUbed In all kinds of weather, Neithei
can we Ignore the Pension laws. At
long as it seems necessary to build ship
and build forts, we will have to pay out
srge sums.
The Indian Appropriation bill, as re
ported to tlio Senate, carries a number ol
important amendments. Among' tliein

The frequent exposure of tliefi from

Loxnnx The (i reck nolo to the pow
ers justifying the altitude of Greece to
ward Creto is couched in such strong
terms as to he rognrded in oflicial cir-
lea here as almost tiintaniouiit to a de
claration of war ngniust Turkey. The
aotc accused the Turkish troops of siding
with the Mussulmans, said that the Turk
ish reinforcements meant a renewal of a
itrocitles against the Cretan Christians,
mil concluded with snying that it was,
herefore, incumbent upon Greece to pre-
veut at all costs the landing of reinforce
ments, not only out of sympathy with
but as a duty to the (ircrk population,
'which ban just solemnly declared its
leterniiniition to accept nothing but un
ion with the motherland.''
This menacing allitude towards Tur
key is (piite a volte face upon the part ol
tving George, who has hitherto shown
i moderate, pacific disposition, and there
is considerable speculation for the reason
thereof. The, opinion is expressed that
Greece must be able lo count upon tin
support ol ' sonic influent i:tl persons am
'..ie tolerance of. others and indications
ooint to Russia as her backer, it is con
tended that I he close kinship between
.he two reigning families must count, for
mine thing in the present crisis, and
pie are asking what passed at the confer
wee betwoeit the ('.arand King George
