Washington, Jan. 20. The backward: state of the annual appropriation bills, has impressed itself upon congress. The serrate is chargeable with the greater delay in this respect. Not one of the bills lias yet iassed that body, although the house has sent over three which are: ready for action.

It is the general pectation that the anti-option bill -will; come to a final vote before the middle of tiiis week, and then the appropriations committee will prolwbly take the lead, be-jinniug with the fortifications, or army ap-: pTopriation bill, and following, with the others as rapidly as they can; be reported. There may be a snspen-; sion of tho order in this respect long enough to allow debate and action upon the Cherokee outlet bill, some of the interstate commerce, bills and one or two other measures which the committee on the order of business may decide to call up. but none of these are likely to be of Mich a nature as to arouse any party feeling. That will probably manifest 'itself itt the executive session hiring the week in connection; with MrCouuis nomination, which in the unfinished business" when the senate closes its doors. Tues-' day, by notice already given, the senate' will listen to eulogies upon the late Sen-; ntor Barbour of Virginia.

The silver repeal bill is the unknown quantity ini all calculations as to tho business of thi Mnate, and it may become the live issue; at any time upon motion of a senator': to proceed to its consideration, but at, this time no such purpose is openly ei-; pressed. Order In lh Lower llou-r. The probabilities are that the house during the coming week will also occupy itself lartrely with the delayed ap-, propriation bills and will make an etTort' to catch up with the record of previous; short sessions of congress on these sup-j ply bills. Monday is District day under the rules, but Mr. Holman intends to! all up the sundry civil bill and to ask: the District to give way.

No calcula-' tkm can be made as to the length of' time it will take this bill, with all it-sl numerous and varied items appeal-j ing to local interests, to pass1 the. house. It may go through' almost as rapidly a3 the clerk can read: its provisions or it may drag along for! lays. The appropriation for the sur-i vev of public lands is regarded as espec-j "ally insufficient by western members. but on this, as on other items, a vigor-j oils fight may not tie made in the house as the bill has to pass the scrutiny of tho; senate.

The Torrey bankruptcy lull is the special order for Tuesday anrt 'W ednesday. but the order gives appro-: priation bills precedence and there for" the bankruptcy bill wilt have to yield the rbxr to approprif ations. Mr. Blount purposing to call up the diplomatic and consular appropria tionbillon Tuesday unless -the sundrv civil bill is in the way. The general; deficiency bill is also "on the calendar and will be called up at the first opportunity, and the military academy bill is ready for report to the hou- "at any time.

Of the other appropriation bills the legislative, pension, agricultural, Indian. postoffice and naval bills are still in the hands of sub-cumt it tees. LECTOR A I. COM.KtJE BLUNDERS;" ew legislation Vrjied Order to Avoid Confusion. Washington, Jan.

22. The missing certificates of the electoral colleges of the fourteen states, which ought to have lecn delivered by special messenger mt the hands of the president of the senate before the fourth Monday in January, bare none of them come to hand todav.i but intimations have lieen receivi-d that most of them are on the way ami may le expected tomorrow. Obviouslv the intention of the law in providing that one set of certificates should In- sent by mail and another should lie forwarded by duly authorized special messengers, endorsed on the outside" with the names of the eW-tors sending it. was to provide for the verification by the house of congress of the certificates nent by mail by their counterparts delivered by hand by a trusty commisr sioned messenger. The failure of so many of the states to comply with this obviously necessary precaution iu a matter of such vital ini Irtan'-e as the election of president and vic president has called attention to the advisability of the passage of a gener.il law to regulate tho form of certificates to lie issued in such cases, and also in the case of the election of United states senators and members of coiv-gress.

It is suggested that a blank form applicable to each case should lie estal-lished by a law of congress, and that the state department should le required send out a sufficient number of tho requisite forms to the state governors and once in four years to the electoral colleges, through tlx governors of the slates, leaving only names and dates to be tilled in. At present, for instance, the certificates of the election of senators vary from a terse certificate, scarcely sufficient to authenticate the fact certified to. all the way up to a document requiring an hour to read, embodying an abstract of the journal of the legislature during the whole of its sessions on the senatorial matter. It is being strongly urged that a simple certificate could he prescribed by congress which would obiviate all future dangers of failure tb properly certify the action of the pits; torial colleges and which would alsb simplify the credentials of members if congress and senators, and a bill to this effect will probably lie introduced during the week. i As was to be anticipated.

Baron Hirsch has not only been the most successful owner of racehorses in England this season, but he stands far iu advance of all the rest, having, thanks mainly to La Fleche, "Watercress and Windgall, won over or nearly double the amount standing to the credit of Sir J. Bluudel Maple, who comes second, with a total of about 5,000, while Colonel North, who last year almost ran a dead heat for first place with Noel Fen-wick, each of them having won about $100,000 is now only third with about $75,000, or a thousand pounds more than the duke of Westminster has secured, mainly by means of the sensational Ornio.

Bad. Great Activity Aronsed by a Rich strike at Iadvllle. JDexver, Jan. 22. The most important mineral strike made in Colorado for some time is that in tiie Bohn shaft at Leadville.

A rich ore body was struck about one week ago and establishes a fact long suspected, that the city of Leadville rests on valuable silver deposits. The abundance of water has heretofore hindered the work, but now that ore i3 known" to exist in paying quantities the old shafts wluch have been lying idle will be put work. The Bohn shaft is clear of water and shipments will begin at once. Tomorrow morning the famous Bissick mine, near Silver Cliff, will present a scene of activity and thp work of pumping out the water will Ix-gin. This mine has been closed for ten years or more on account of litigation, but a company with ex-Senator Miller of New York at the head has gained posession and will open it up at once.

During the last two years it was operated the mine produced and there are many more mine3 insight. Chicago, Topeka and Denver capitalists have organized tho Alice Mining and Milling companv, with a capital of to work the Alice mines in Clear Creek county. The company owns six hundred acres of rich placer ground, besides a rich vein of high grade ore. Fourteen cars of high grade ori? are being shipied each week from Cripple Creek. Hundreds of tons are.

ready for shipment as soon the railroad is completed to the camp. Some very good veins of low grade ore are being opened up on Carbonate hill, at Cripple Creek, and the completion of stamp mills will si-e. four regular shippers. Creede's ore shipments last week were the largest in her history, being 114 cars, or 2.2."0 t'ns. The.

Anaconda mine, at Cripple 'reek, has paid up its indebtedness and the indications are that it will soon begin operations. This has always been looked upon as the great mine of the new gold camp and the news that it will resume work has had a good effect on tho camp. RELICS OF AN INDIAN BATTLE. Bonos oT Whites and Redskins Unearthed In Idaho. Boise City, Idaho, Jan.

22. On Kri- I day morning a gang of convicts cn-' gaged in quarrying rock on a high bluff I a few hundred feet north of the Idaho penitentiary unearthed a large deposit of human bones and other relics of by-j gone days. Some of the bones are those of white people, though the greater portion of them once belonged to Indians who ranged through the Boise valley. The convicts filled three boxes with relics and brought them to the i prison. Among the bones they gathered was the almost complete skeleton of a girl of about 17 years, portions of the skeleton of a baby.

and the skull, ribs' and thigh bones of an Indian who at the time of his death must have been at least 0 years of age. In addition to the. lmes, the prisoners gathered about a quart of Indian beads, a dozen brass bracelets and a knife, spoon and pockct-nvjrror, such as are carried by soldiers. The knife, spoon, and bracelets were, badly tarnished, as were a handful of army buttons (infantry) that were found Ixmcath a pile of weather-beaten bones. To one of the ribs of tho skeleton of a man (who was probably not an Indian) adhered a shred of blue army cloth, as thin as gauze by the action of! time and weather.

Beneath a pile of female bones was found a piece, oft-yellow satin, evidently a portion of the costume which the woman woro at the time of her death and interment. It is said that the relics are those of the first battle fought in Idaho by the whites and Indians.during which many persons of both sexes were lost by either side. The matter will be inquired into by a number of persons who have taken an interest in the discovery, and interesting developments are anticipated. jj ALTGELD QUITE ILL.

Tho staudpqe containing the city's water supply, situated on the mountain side, burst this morning. It was 60 feet high and 4-1 feet in circumference, with a capacity of 750,000 gallons. There were alx.uit forty-five feet of water in the pipe at the time of the collapse, which went rushing down the mountain side with terrific force. A negro man sleeping in the basement of a small house was awakened by the rush of water and escaped. No lives were hist.

The loss to the city is about $12,000. The water was at once turned into the reservoir and the city was only out of water a few hours. Piles of people have piles, but Te Witt's Witc Hajrel Sjilve will cure tAem. Barley's. Shiloh's Cure, the great cough and croup cure, is for sale" by us.

GUNSAirLl'S' DISTRESS. JPIymoutU Church's I'astor Threatened AVltli l'ul-ulysls oriho ocal Chords. Threatened paralysis of the vocal organs has caused Rev. Frank Gnn-saulus to abandon the lecture platform, at least. From tho present outlook lie will have to confine bis public speaking to the pulpit.

ITehas canceled all of his engagements for the future and is at present using every1 endeavor to avert tho threatened -disability by following rigidly the instructions of his physician. Dr. Gnnsaiihis received his first intimation several weeks ago that he overtaxing his throat by constant speaking. His services as a lecturer are in such demand, however, that he felt constrained to keep his appointments, and against the advice of his physician he kept on lecturing. Last Sunday evening, after preaching to the large congregation that invariably attends the services at Plymouth congregational church, Dr.

Gunsaulus felt that it was time to call a During the sermon he was in such distress that at times his voice nearly failed bun. and his hearers were in momentary expectation of seeing their pastor abandon his discourse. Realizing the danger he was incurring, Dr. Gunsaulus at once set alnmt to cancel his engaements. The announcement he has taken this course of action will gpainfully surprise, thousands who have looked forward with pleasant anticipations of hearing him.

Few Chicago clergymen have- attained a wider popularity and prominence than Dr. Gunsaulus. To his reputation as pastor in charge of one of the largest and wealthiest congregations in the city is added that of having achieved distinction in the literary field and becoming noted as a speaker whose originality is accompa tied by eloquence. He has only Recently been tendered the position of president of the Armour institute, an honor rarely conferred upon a man of bis years. Yhile those of his friends who are acquainted with his sudden indisposition are alarmed lest it should result in Dr.

Gunsaulus losing his voice they will be pleased to hear that his Condition has improved slightly, within the last few days. Absolute rest for tho; vocal chords may yet ward off the paralysis which has threatened to close his career as a public speaker. Thursday night his condition was reported as much better, yet no matter how much Dr. Gunsaulus may improve his field of usefulness is said to be now contracted in a manner that will give rise to deeu regret to those who have heard him as a lecturer. Chicago's Sensitive Major.

The Hon. Hempstead' "Washburne, mayor of Chicago, has lieen assailed with much ribald vitiqeration by a part of tho Chicago press for his habit of smoking cigarettes. Exactly what his critics think he ought to smoke, whether they, object to his smoking at' all or grieve because lie doesn't side with conservative Chicago and chew twist, we are not clearly informed. It is enough to say that his sensitive nature has been deeply wounded, and he has now issued an order prohibiting any person employed bv the itv criticising him. "Any person making unseemly or improper comments on the head of this department will be promptly discharged."

Will Tight Any Man in the World, Bar Hone, Next Fall Mitchell Gets the Preference and Jackson Is INext Who Shall Reap the Harvest. Chicago, Jan.

22. Champion James J. Corbett, who is in thiscity with his theatrical combination, has been rather severely criticised during the past few months for his course on insisting on a rest before taking on another match for the world's championship. Prominent among his assailants have been Pat Sheedy and the backers of several pugilists of prominence who are seeking championship honors. Corbett today gave out an in which lie defends his position, and which he concludes with a sweeping challenge to fight any one, Mitchell o'r Jackson preferred, the fight to take place next fall for a purse.

The statement, which is signed "James J. Corbett, champion of tho world," discusses a recent article by Pat Sheedy in part, as follows "I believe one of Mr. Sheedy statements was that John L. Sullivan would annihilate me with one blow and that I would not last three rounds. The result shows to what degree Mr.

Sheedy lias risen as a tipster. In his letter, the distinguished Mr. Sheedy alludes to Sullivan and Mitchell as two easy marks.1 I have never met nor sought contests with 'easy If I were in the habit of doing so I might accept the. challenges of some of the would be. champions ho arc now.

chasing me. My record shows that I have successfully battled with men like Jack Burke, JakeKilrain, Joo Choynski, Dominick McCaffrey, Peter Jackson and John L. Sullivan. Mr. Sheedy did not think Mr.

Sullivan was an "easy mark" six: mont.s ago, when he made the prediction alluded to above, and surely tho boxers I have mentioned are not to be so rated." In reply to Sheedy's argument against the practice of fighting for large purses, Corbett says: "If champion pugilists are going to contest for $10,000, purse and stakes all told, as the distinguished Mr. Sheedy suggests, who then is going to take the money tlwt they will draw According to the figures published, the night that Sullivan and I fought the receipts were nearly tho purse was $25,000. and the club cleared close to flVHX) on the battle. The profits of the Meyer-McAuliffo were Dixon and Skelly $20,000, Maher and Fitzsimmons The Conev Island club admits that it cleared $25,000 witli tho Dixon-Johnson match, $23,000 with the Choyno-ski-Godfrey contest, and $23,000 with the Mahef Goddard light. Tho fact that the Crescent club of New Orleans gives Fitzsimmons and Hall a $40,000 arse, and has offered Mitchell and myself a 53,000 purse, proves that at present there are fortunes being made by athletic clubs who are arranging boating contests between cham pious.

Who is this money to go to, if not to tho pugilists';" Corbett asserts, in justification of bis course in asking one year's rest between his battles, that Sullivan, although ho held the championship twelve years, only fought four men, Ryan. Mitchell, Kilrain and Corbett. an average of one battle every three years. Of his intentions regarding the next contest for the champiouship of the world, Corbett says "Goddard must win the championship of his own country before I will recognize him. I am champion of America and of the world, and I claim the right to say whom I shall meet, I am prepared to fight the champion of England or of Australia.

1 prefer Charles Mitchell, the acknowledged champion boxer of England, and an undefeated man. After his arrival in this country, which will now be in a very short time, I will allow him a certain period to show that he means business. In case of his failure to do so, Peter Jackson is my next choice and in case he does not come to the scratch, I will meet any man in the world, barring no color or nationality, the tight to take place next fall.
