ACTIVE WEEK IN BOUSE' 1
War Revenue iinto Hss. IndUa Af-

' lpplne Matter.
WAtHisQTOK, Feb. ll-Th oominaS
week promises to be one of onasaal ao
uvity in tne uou or uepreienianvei.
The war revanne . reduotion bill will ba
taken np with two days for debate, and
astringent rule bringing the bill ton
vote on Tuesday, without intervening
motion to recommit or amendments oth
er than those of a verbal character pro
posed by the committee.
The passage of the bill is a foregone
conclusion as the minority members as
well as the majority favor it, the only
difference being a to the amount of re
daction and the extent to which tariff
changes should go.
Aeide from 'the tariff issue, it would
be ad surprise If the sensational speech
of Representative Wheeler, of Kentnokj
on Prince Henry's visit and other tor
sign matters will flgnre In the dlsooss
ion, as much feeling has been aroused by
the speech. The Indian appropriation
bill will be taken np on Vfednesdey,
with two other appropriation bills;" this
diplomatic, consular, and the postoffloe
In reserve. Chairman , Barman, of the
Iadjan affairs committee, expects tooc-
enpy two or tnree aays, so inai appro
priation bills will go over until the fol
lowing week. In that case private-
claims will Ket some consideration the
1 liter part of the week.
There are several Important measures
of legislation ready for consideration, in
eluding the antl-anaichy bill and the
Pacific cable bill. The intention, how
eveiOs notj to consider these general
measures so long as any appropriation
bills remain unacted upon. Besides the
work 'on the floor of the House, it is ex
pected thatthe coming week may si e
some1 progress in the ways and means
committee on the subject of Cuban re
ciprocity, which "was deferred until after
the war revenue redaction measure had
been passed.
With reference to the Philippine bill
it is although pfebable that a vote will
be reached during the latter part of the
week. The Democrats have been In coo
ference on the subject and have reached
the conclusion that they will be able to
oonclude their presentation of their op
position to the bill In a few more speech
es. An agreement fixing a time to vole
Is likely to be reached on Tuesday and
the indications now are that next Fri
day or next Saturday will be named as
the day for deciding the fate of the bill.
There are still a few set speeches to be
delivered on the bill, bat most of the
speeches towards the close of the rebate
will be brief. By unanimous consent the.
bill will be disposed of. It Is expected
that a vote will be reached on the censes
bill after vary. Utile more debate.

Rslbioh, N. 0., February 17. The
snowfall, which ended at 8 o'clock; this
morning, broke the records since the
weather bureau's establishment here, ft
began at 11.80 Friday night, the 14th,
and np to 8. p.m. Baturday 12 Inches
fell. ,' Up to 8 a. m. Sunday morning 1
inches fell. Yesterday afternoon at 8.80
"hominy" snow began to fall. This at
5 Was succeeded by a heavy and recnlar
fall, aod to 0 o'clock this morning-S 6 10
Inches fell. The total therefore Is 18
nches.T here are no drifts. It exceeds
nhe great snow of February 14-16, 1890,
which was 17 T-10 Inches.
Trains-are all running off schedule.
The rural free .delivery mall carriers
have been unable to make a trip alnee
Friday. The publlo schools were closed
todsy.
. Street cars began to run at 9 o'clock
Saturday over the main portion of the
line Last night's snpw blocked them
again, and tbey did not ran until nearly
noon. The barometer was very low
this morning, as it has been for three
days.'
The great weight of snow about 8
o'clock this rhorntpg crushed the roof of
the largest cotton warehouse here. The
walls gave way and the ruin Is only up
held by the 1,000 bales of cotton nnder
it. . The roof of Halloway'a carriage re
pository was also crushed by tl e
snow.
The Supreme Court devotes this week
to the appeals from the third district.
The docket Is light. Among the attor
neys here attending the court are ex
Senator T. J. Jarvls of Greenville and A,
D. Ward, of New Bern
Governor Aycock left this morning
for Greensboro where this evening he
was one of the speakers at the dedica
tion of the "Curry Practice and Obser
vation School," at the StateNormal and
Industrial College for young women.
There appears to be a misunderstand
ing on the part of the school authorities
in a number of counties as to what are
"available" publlo school funds. They
appear to think such funds are only
those which have come In since July 1.
The lsw requires that before a county
shall call on the State for special aid to
keep its publlo schools open 4 months it
shall exhaust all the- available funds.
The State officials say this means all the
funds to the credit of the schools, no
matter If It goes back Ave years. There
weapon the 1st of last August the great
sum of $237,600 to the publlo schools In
the hands of county treasurers.
