Jan 24.1598 Dear Democrat:—The weathei here has been boinble forthe prst three dais, C"ld rains coming •ff the Ar hi tic making it very cool »nd decidedly uncomfortable getting around the city •nd viefnitv. It does not agree will m-like ihe Florida weather. Hve not bee free from cold since I arrived in the city, and don't thii k I shall stay here much longer. Will either go furthere south or back to Indiana. Wa.« down at the National Hotel Friday evening a 1 d met about fif’v Indiana lumbermen who are on a junketing 'rip east They were going to remain here until Sunday, then going over to Philadelphia for three dava and from there to New York where they expected to stay about four davs »nd then retnn hi m-. Among ti e number the e • four form Marion, tw > ot whom I knew rnd one or two from Randolph county the balance came from all parts of the state. They seemed to be enjoying themselves very much, taking in the different places of interest iu and around the city. Saturday thev were going down to Mount Vernon and wanted me to go along, but 1 bad an. engagement for that day and had to decline ihe offer. Geo W Watson and wife invited me out to their home in Kensington, a suburb of the city, to spend Sunday with them, so I started from here that morning about ten I o'clock, taking a S-venth street elec’r c ■ car going north to lj street and trans ; ferring to what ; s known as tbe Chary | Chase L'ne. and I must sav it was one 'of tbe pleasantest trips I have made since 1 came east. The bne runs through | one o the mo t beautiful sections an\w bere in this part of the country, over hills and vallevs. through an almost continuous village of beautiful|summ-i homes and very near to the country resi let'Ce once owned by Ex-President : C evelatd When I left here 1 expected to get out to Mr Watson's | piace in about thirty minu’es but it I took me fully an hour, as I had some | short delays at transfer stations as the i road is not owned by one convanv I I found I had traveled eleven miles when ; I reached my destination. Mr. Watson was waiting for m- at the station and I went directly to bis home. It is a beautiful cottage of about eight rooms, and they have it handsomely furnished Mrs. Watson is quite a talented sriisi and has adorned her place with quite a number of admirable paintings, and she is besides a very charming hostess. I did not leave until after seven o'cloc k p m. ano then with regrets. Mr-. ■ Watson is a sister to Silas Adams' wife, i Thev invited me to go out again next I Saturday and bring Mary along, and I accepted providing tbe weather was j suitable. Marv was down Saturdai ; afternoon and spent the evening with I me. but as it was raining we d'd no’ g»> to go out t' getber. We lunched wit the F.umikens’ and b il a g > > I tun- *1 then escorted Tina to her school She is looking and feeling firs' c ass. I have been going to tbe senate and bouse meetings but cannot bear any thing from the galleries on account of m» defective ears, but saw the fun wben they bad the wrangle in the house over the Cubcn question. Senator Tur pie gave me a card admi ting me and friends to the ladies gallery in the senate good for tbe season. Was in the U 8. supreme court room for a few minutes Friday, but there is nothing exciting going on there so I absquatulated. Too much formality to suit a nervous person like me. It might suit 1 Judge Studabaker. as be likes heavy ( acts. Am.going to the theater some oav this week and ehall take Mary, tbe Flumikens and Ed Minor along. Minor and myself have be. n taking in some . of the free and easy kind, where we ( could see as high up as tbe ceiling, and , laugh and talk to our heart's content. There are some curious legislators here, some that ought to be cutting ice at ’ this season of the year instead of helping to make laws for a great country i like Uncle Sam's. Take for instance t the populist Senator Hutfield from , Idaho, he is wealthy and by that means i and through tbe populistic wave that k struck the west slid into tbe exalted position that a better man should be f occupying. He is a large, muscular t uneducated nonentity, and would make a better brewer of beer than a mm- , • aeturer of laws. There are others in the bouse and senate who ought to be relegated to the rpiir. ni’ich bus’-

Attorney General McKenna Confirmed a« A*sotiate Justice of the Supreme Coart. Bureau of American Republic*--Demo-cratic Cungreftsional Committee Washington*. Jan. 22.—The committee on banking aud currency, having concluded its hearings, extending over suauy days, on the question of revising the currency, will begin next Wednesday to consider the question of a report on some one of the numerous propositions submitted. The members of the committee differ widely as to the outlook for affirmative action, some of those iu leading positions declaring that the hearings have demonstrated that it will be impossible to secure a majority for any one proposition. Others are more hopeful aud say that a composite measure, embodying the essential features of the Gage bill aud monetary commission bill, is likely to command sufficient votes to be reported. Tnere is a general agreement tuat none of tbe bills before the committee will be reported in their present form. There are 17 members of the committee, five of them Democrats. Meinlws favorable to the monetary commission bill say tney dope to get seven votes «t tbe outset, and later to secure the ad'Utional totes necessary. Some ot the members counted iu this seven say, however, that they wiil not vole for the bill. The situation within the committee is conceded to be very complicated In view of this aoudition a number of members hops to have the general question put asid ■ for the present ami a bill restricted to 'he three recommendations of tne president r-porteti. This a'«o aron«es counter objections, so that there is little on wnich to base predictions of the outcome. AT LEE’S REQUEST. Was th. Battleship Sent Ho Havana. Consult.l iou at Judge ll'K-nna’s. New York, Jan. 25.—The World’s Washington correspondent this morning says that the battleship Maine was ordered to Havana in respou-e to a cablegram from Consul General Lee. After 6 o’clock last night three ciph'”dispatches from General Lee were re ceivedat the state department, translated and sent to Judge Day, assistant secretary of state, who took them to the dinner given oy Judge McKenna. At that dinner all the members of the cabinet except General r were present, snd a consultation, practically a cabinet meeting, was held to consider the situation in Out». After returning to the executive mansion the president ordered direct telegraphic connection between there and Key West. BFREAr OF AMERICAN REPTBIaCS. Cwbinet Other. Think the Bureau Deserving er Earnest Support. Washington. Jan. 22.—The cabinet yesterday gave some time to a discussion of the conduct of the bureau of American republics, during which it passed in review congressional critiicisms that have been lodged against the institution. Secretary Bliss testified as a business man to the great value of the publications of the bureau, particularly since it has come under the a.iministratiou of the present director Joseph Smith It was the gener, i opinion of tne cabinet that the bureau was deserving of the earnest support nf the administration.
