Washinqtox, April t’O.—Chief Hazen of the secret service says the men whe recently counterfeited the notes of the South Bend National bank of South Bend, Ind., have been captured in Mil-

RULE’S REPEAL PROPOSED, waukee and are in prison awaiting trial.

They live in Bay City. The only place ’ the notes have been circulated so fur a« can be learned is in Milwaukee among saloons and dives. Forty-five notes of this spurious issue were captured of the denominations of twenties, tens anil fives. The counterfeit is a very ]H>or piece of work and ought not to deceive

anybody.

I^ower Itranch of Con^renH AtMn<!on«Ml While Member* Watch a Hate ha 11 Game—HUTh IMan* With Kelatlon to the Tariff’ Katlieal Strike Talk by a C’oii^ressman -Other W'a*hiiinton News. W ASUiNiiTON, Apnl 30.—Speaker Crisp has authorized Sergeant-at-Arms Snow to make public the new form of certificate by which the old law. in disuse for 30 years, is revived and the pay of mem- j tiers is “docked” for absenteeism. The member certifies to the number of days he was absent during the month and the siieaker certifies to the amount due him. Mr. Snow said concerning the new sys-

tem:

“I feel that it must result in much confusion and friction: yet, as the law exists and the house wants me to execute it, I will do so. There will be many difficulties and members will necessarily be subjected to much inconvenience. At present members draw cash from the cashier, or else make drafts through the banks, on the balances with us. Now, if a member in New York draws on ns through a local bank the draft will be presented to us on the 4th of the month, which is payday for the preceding month. But at that time we will not have the member’s signed certificate showing the amount due him. The certificates cannot be made until the last moment, as the deduction for absenteeism may occnr on the last day. Then it is not within the bounds of possibility for 356 members of congress to make out their certificates at the moment they are wanted. “After that they must go to the speaker for approval. As a result, it will be difficult and perhaps impossible to keep run of the balances. 1 cannot see how we can keep drafts and checks made by members through banks from going to protest. It will be no satisfactory thing to have a dozen or more drafts going to protest at a time, with the attendant inconvenience and injury to the bank credit of meuibeVs. Still, if the bouse wants this system resumed 1 will execute it to the best of my ability. The first deductions will be made on the 4th of next month.” Cashier Balentine anticipates a demoralization of his balances and is at a loss to know how they can be kept so that members can be paid, personally or by their drafts, with any assurance that they are not being overpaid. It sweeps away every vestige of the favors and ease of payments with which the office has heretofore tried to facilitate money dealings with members. Mr. Grosvenor (Rep.) has introduced a bill to repeal the old law directing the sergeant-at-arms to “dock” the salaries of absent members. Mr. Grosvenor says that the law can never be enforced, and it is better to repeal it than violate it. III I.I.’N LATEST SCHEME. Hr Propone** to Force Member* to OppoKc an Income Tax. Washington. April 20.—Senator Hill is credited with a new move on the senatorial chess board. The New York senator has always been credited with being a clever tactician. He proposes, it is said, to have the free list considered first. If this is done he and his allies will establish conditions satisfactory to themselves and then lie left free and unrestricted to deal with the Democratic senatorial combinations which have received concessions on the articles of coal, iron ore and sugar. Some of the senators who have been loudest in criticising Mr. Hill because of his opixisition to the tariff bill received concessions on the articles mentioned from the senate committee. The New 7 York senator intends, if |Missihle, to force these to agree to vote with him against the income tax, or else make a fight to put sugar, coal and iron ore on the free list. It is believed that the effect of such a move on the part of ‘Jenator Hill would lie to bring the senators from West Virginia and Louisiana to his aid in opposing the income tax. Such a condition would only add to the complications which now beset the tariff bill. There is a large element of western ami southern senators, led by Chairman Voorhees of the finance committee, who will not abandon the income tax so long as theie is a shred of the tariff bill left to hang it

on.

HE TALKS RADICALLY. Comment of a Dakota CongreNMinan on the (treat Northern Strike. Washinuton, April 20.—Representative Johnson of North Dakota, whose state is so greatly affected by the strike on the Great Northern railroad,was at the jKistoftice department and department of justice yesterday in the interest of his constituents. He says the postmaster general will insist that the mail cars must be run whether passenger and other cars are run or not. He was at the department of justice to see if the inconvenience that would be caused by Judge Sanborn's order could not be avoided. “I have thrown myself wholly on the side of the strikers," said Mr. Johnson, "lam against the railroad and believe the strikers are right. I have prepared a resolution of impeachment against Judge Sanborn and will introduce it as soon as I can obtain a copy of his order, so that I will know officially what it was. Furthermore. 1 do not believe that the railroad company can hold the state or municipalities responsible if the l>eople burn and destroy the property of the railroad. I know from my experience as district attorney that the com-

DAY IN THE SENATE. Senator Perkin** Attack on the Tariff Bill. IVfTVr’* Coxey Ke*oliition. Washington, April 20.—Yesterday in the senate was almost entirely consumed by a speech against the pending tariff bill by Senator Perkins of California. The speech was mainly devoted to a discussion of the articles which directly affected California—wool, fruits, quicksilver, beet-sugar, etc., although he considered other features in the bill, in which his state was not interested, but which were opposed to Republican principles and which he accordingly arraigned. But little business was transacted during the morning hour, the agreement of the senate to the report of the conference committee on the urgent deficiency bill being the most important. The Peffer resolution for the appointment of a committee on communications, for the purpose of hearing the grievances of Coxey's army, was debated by Messrs. Spooner and Allen, but went over without action. Eulogies were also pronounced on the late Representative

Enochs of Ohio.

WILE THEY HE 1HKKEDT House Member* Left Their Desk* to Go

to the Hall (tame.

Washington, April 20.—The house is making very slow progress with the diplomatic and consular appropriation bill. Almost the entire day was devoted to threshing over the old straw in the controversy. The text used as a basis for the debate—a motion to cut off the salary of the Hawaiian minister—was defeated when the vote was taken without division. About 4 o'clock half the membership of the house suddenly faded away to attend the oi>emng ball game of the season, and when this act was observed Mr. Cannon carried the committee of the whole to a vote on an amendment to prevent an increase of salary of the secretary of the Mexican legation. The Democrats wfere unable to produce a quorum and after a rollcall the house

adjourned.

FiHTojifhini; on Gold Itonorve. Washington, April 20.—The net gold in the treasury at the close of business yesterday was f 103.673,528, and the cash balance $131,349,741. Information received at the treasury indicates that there will be another heavy payment of gold tomorrow. The gold supply in the treasury is decreasing week by week until it has reached a point where the $100,000,000 reserve is liable at any time to be again encroached upon. Conatermition Among South ('arolinians. Washington, April 20.—The South Carolina delegation in congress was thrown into consternation on the receipt of telegrams stating that the sn preme court of the state had declared the dispensary liquor law unconstitu tional. The dispensary law has been such a supreme issue in South Carolina, accentuating party lines, that the con gressmeu from that state regard the de cision as profoundly important.

LfttteroArriorA* Overtime.

Washington, April 20.—Superintendent Hill of the tree delivery service has gone to Norfolk, Va., where he will ex amine overtime claims of about 25 let tercarriers. He will commence in a few days the examination of claims in Chi cago. There are 250 of these with an average of about $300 involved in each

case. Hailiimn Will Not Resign.

Washington, April 20,—Yesterday j the report was circulated that Judge Jere Wilson, who reflected upon Attorney Stoll in his closing argument in the Pollard-Breckinridge case, had ba >n l challenged to a duel and threatened with j death if not accepted. He was found in the interior department looking up a

contested land case.

“Judge,” asked the reporter, "is it | true that you and Attorney Stoll are

going to fight a duel?”

"Tut, tut,” said Judge Wilson, “don’t j talk to me about such nonsense." “But you have received a letter from 1

Mr. Stoll in which he seems to almost ;

"I don't know anything about it.” said the judge, in a way which indicated that he did not care very much abont the matter. The reporter got the idea that the letter hail been received but ! that Judge Wilson hardly considered it |

at this late date, however, its extent is problematical. In some districts the order is accepted with great good will; in others it is being debated and voted upon, while in others it has been decided not to enter at present in a contest with the operators. In most of the latter instances, though, there is not much disposition to delay the strike longer than May 1. Some miners have already laid down their picks and shovels in anticipation, insisting that the advantage from their labor could not be extended mine owners for the short time remaining. The outlook is worse than gloomy already, the Pennsylvania district reporting over 5,000 strikers already on the list and all the others ready* to join

the union's mandate.

The Indiana men discussed the question at the various mines yesterday. It was strongly argued that they should work one or two days a week until May 1. when all should join in the strike, and it now appears that this will be the eon elusion of the district meeting today. The operators insist upon the men working every day, under the scale agreed to until May 1. but the miners think this is only a plan to strengthen the operators, who are anxious to get out all the coal possible. Operators are receiving orders by telegraph for large amounts of coal. Reports from Ohio state that the men will leave the mines this evening without demonstration and will not return until their demands are conceded. A mass meeting of miners in Springfield, Ills., last night, after an address by the state president, decided unanimously to join the strike tomorrow noon. It i’s said miners all over the state will strike. A terrible ex|>erienoe is in store for

j “The accumulated wealth and energy i and push of this people is such that we cannot always be kept in the trough of j j the sea. We shall be on the crest of the | ' wave again.
