Washington, February 1, '92.—
The administration having by
means not satisfactory to those
who place American patriotism
above the political aggrandise-
ment of any one man, secured a
satisfactory settlement of the
Chilian imbroglio, it is now the
torn of the people, represented by
the democrats in the honse of
representatives, to obtain a satis
faotory settlement with the admin-
•tration. The mere suspicion
that Mr. Harrison and Mr. Blaine
have dared to bring the eountry
unnecessarily to the very verge of
war in their rivalry for the repub-
ican presidential nomination, is of
tself disgraoeful to the party
which they both represent.
It has not yet been determined
what, if any action will be taken
by the house. There is a strong
feeling in favor of the house com-
mittee on foreign affairs making
an investigation of the matter, in
order to ascertain whether there
is any real ground for the suspi-
cion so generally entertained, that
the Bending of the ultimatum to
Chili was an unnecessary bit of
bnnoombe to boom Mr. Benjamin
Harrison. Should the committee
deoide to call upon Mr. Blaine for
his testimony, some interesting
developments may be expeoted.
It may be, however, that shame
for the position which the resnlt
of such an investigation might
place the United States in before
the nations of the world, will pre-
vent the investigation being offi-
cially made.
Mr. Blaine and Senor Montt
the Chilian minister, "do not
speak as they pass by," owing to
Montt having made statements
seriously reflecting on the verac-
ity of Mr. Blaine. It will not be
surprising if Senor Montt shall
conclude that he does not care to
remain in Washington. Mr. Egan
may also come home from Chili
before long. Mr.Harrison has in-
vited Montt to the diplomatic
dinner to be given Tuesday.
Representative Sherman Hoar's
resolution providing for an inves-
tigation of the "sweating" system
of tenement house labor will be
favorably reported from the com-
mittee on manufactures and it is
almost certain to pass the house.
Everybody is interested in ascer-
taining whether the charges that
clothing and other articles of
general use are manufactured in
tenement houses in the large cit-
ies which are reeking with pesti-
lential diseases, and it is believed
an investigation will do it.
The international American
banking scheme, which was be-
fore the last congress, is in the
ring again, a bill having been in-
troduced for the corporation of
such a bank, with a capital of
$5,000,000, which may be increas-
ed to $25,000,000. The incorpo-
rators named are nearly all well
known millionaires.
As far as it may be done by the
ways and means committee, the
tariff policy of the honse has been
agreed npon, the democrats of
that oommittee having decided by
a vote of seven to three that it
would report s series of separate
tariff bills, instead of one general
bill. There are still a number of
prominent snd influential mem-
bers of the house who believe
that this matter should be dis
cussed in caucus before beiug
finally decided. There is to be a
caucus next Friday night, but as
that was called especially
to discuss the silvc- question, it
is not probable that it will take
up anything else, nlthough some-
thing may be said about tne feasi-
bility of the caucus electing a
•'steering" committee of fifteen,
which shall have entire charge of
everything and settle just what
shall be done and what shall be
left undone at the present session.
Much can be said both for and
against this last idea.
Representatives of the deep
waterway convention recently
held at Detroit, made arguments
before a joint session of the sen-
ate committee on commerce and
the house committee on rivers
and harbors, Saturday, in favor of
the construction of a great water-
way from Dnluth to the sea, via
the great lakes and the Erie canal.
The estimated cost of the work is
$3,394,000, and the time to com
plete it from four to Bix years.
The honse committee on the
election of president and vice-
president has decided to favora-
bly report a bill providing a con-
stitutional amendment for the
election of United States senators
by jbe people.
. The house judiciary oommittee
has decided that Representative
Watson's resolution for the inves-
tigation of the Pinkerton detect-
ive agency wonld infringe the
rights of the several states, con-
sequently it will be un&vorably
reported. The a'liance members
say they will make a fight for the
resolution on the floor of the
house.
The democrats of the house
will probably adopt the new rules
early this week, nearly all of last
week having been devoted to de-
bate on them and amendments of-
fered thereto. The caucua Satur-
day night after an explanation
from Speaker Orisp endorsed the
rales as reported from the com-
mittee.
■X-PBESlDElfT CLEVELAND.
Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 2.—Ex-Presi-
dent Cleveland passed through
here at noon today en route from
New Orleans. At the central sta-
tion he was given a big ovation.
Fully 5000 persons assembled in
and abont the station. From the
time the train rolled in tfntil it left
there was a continual thnnder of
applause. Cannon saluted the ar
rival of the train and before it
stopped Governor Northen got
aboard and introduced Mr. Cleve-
land to the crowd. For twenty
minutes be Bhook hands with the
people and in response to calls
made a short speech thanking
them for the pleasant reception
and expressing a pleasant remem-
brance of his visit here five years
ago. He declined all previous in
vitationa to speak, he said, but it
would require a man with more
backbone than he was reputed to
have to resist such an outpouring.
