A Lively Tilt Between O'Neill and Morgan. Washisgtos. April 7. The policy of delay of the minority in the senate was made manifest yesterday, when before the conclusion of Thursday's journal, Mr. Chandler (Republican) made the point of no quorum, and the roll was called, showing four sen ators less than a quorum were present. After a delay of fifteen minutes four senators dropped in to complete the quorum, and the reading of the jour nal was concluded, and the routine business was proceeded with. Among- the petitions presented was one from the millers of St. Louis, which was presented by both the Mis souri senators, praying- for retention of the reciprocity clause of the Mc Kinley law. An interesting test of strength was developed by Senator Hill's motion that when the senate adjourned it should be until Monday. The Repub licans jumped at the idea and sec onded the motion and even Senator Harris' request that the motion be withdrawn, had no effect, so he de manded the yea and nay vote, in which demand he was seconded by Senator Vest. As the call progressed it became very evident the vote would be close, and when it was announced, 25 to 26, a sigh of relief escaped from the Dem ocrats. The vote was, with very few exceptions, a party vote, the Repub licans voting for the motion and Sen ators Hill and Murphy of New York and Irby of South Carolina voted with them, and Senator Brice of Ohio was paired in favor of the motion. Of Ihe Populists, Stewart voted with the Republicans and Messrs, Allen, Kyle and Peffer with the Demo crats. The resolution introduced some time ago by Senator Wolcott, looking to drafting a treaty with Mexico by which the Unitsd States should coin silver dollars at the mint, was laid before the senate and Mr. Teller said, after he had made a few remarks, he would ask to have it lie over until Monday, as Senator Wolcott' was absent. Mr. Teller then briefly addressed the senate in favor of the resolution. Senator Lodge, Mass., delivered a ringing speech in support of the reso lution, urging its passage because the experiment was worth trying1 while it could do no harm. Senator Dubois of Idaho, followed in support of the resolution. The hour of 2 o'clock having arrived the resolution went over without action, and the tariff bill was laid before the senate. There was a very slim attendance of senators on the floor when Mr. Peffer arose to speak on the tariff question, and this num ber dwindled by degrees until 2:30 there was only a corporal's guard present. Senator Peffer had pro ceeded for two hours, when Senator Gallinger suggested that he be al lowed to suspend his remarks, and conclude at the next meeting- of the senate. Senator Peffer assented to this, but asserted that he was not speaking against time, and did not desire to have his speech drifting along- over two or three weeks. Mr. Morgan moved that the senate proceed to the consideration of execu tive business. At the request of Sen ator Harris he subsequently withdrew the motion and Mr. Harris, stating that the tariff bill had never been read in full, and that the senate had refused to dispense with its formal reading, asked that it be then read, hoping thus to fill the interim, when Mr. Peffer would be ready to proceed. The Republicans thereupon began di latory tatics, Mr. Aldrich moving that the senate go into executive session, and Mr. Harris demanded the ayes and nays, which showed the absence of a quorum. Mr. Aldrich's motion being- voted down there was a roll call, which disclosed the presence of a quorum. At 4:35 p. m., on motion of Mr. Harris, the senate adjourned until 12 o'clock to-day. MIS90rRtAN3 CLASH. Lively Tilt Betweoo Morgan and O'Neill In the House. WashtSGTox, April 7. The house went ahead With appropriation bills again yesterday. Some routine busi ness was, however, first transacted. A lively tilt occurred between Mr. O'Neill, Democrat of Missouri, who was seated last Tuesday, and his Dem oeratic colleague. Mr. Morgan of Mis souri. Mr. O'Neill rose to a question of privilege and 5-ead from a news paper an interview with Mr. Morgan, in which the latter explained as his reason for voting against O'Neill that there had been an agreement between the contestant and contestee fa the case to let the plain intent of the voter count. "Mr. O'Neill could not break that agreement," Mr. Morgan was quoted as saying-, "without dis honor, and he asks too much when he asks us to join him in dishonor." Mr. O'Neill defied that he had entered into such an agreement with Mr. Joy, as was represented in the interview. He made a statement and concluded it with a protest against the treatment he had received. Mr. Morgan replied: "I had hoped that we hai had enough of the O'Neill Joy contested election case. I had hoped Mr. O'Neilt would be content with devoting; himself to the duties Mr. Joy was elected to discharge." He avowed the authenticity of the in terview, and read from the record to show that Mr. O'Neill had violated his fcTeemenV STANLEY A CANNIBAL. Charged With Having Lunched On i Ha inan Flesh to Satisfy Curiosity. Chicago, April 7. In a lecture de livered last nig-ht Theodore West mark, a young- Scandinavian, who made two explorations of the Congo state in Central Africa under the aus pices of King Leopold IL of Belg-ium, accuses Henry M. Stanley of having lunched on human flesh to satisfy a morbid curiosity. He said that at Stanley Pool In 1884, Stanley, curious to know how human flesh would taste, sent his servant, Duala, to procure a chunck of the native material, but it proved tainted and Duala received a' sound drubbing-. A second trip after flesh from a native proved more suc cessful. It was fried in butter and served with sauce piquante and mixed pickles, but despite these condiments Stanley pronounced the flesh to be tasteless. BEATEN ON A MINOR BILL. The Rosebery Government Receives a Set Rack Irish Members Absent. LoXDOJT, April 7. The defeat of the government by a majority of one on a private bill,, the majorities on other questions falling off 18 to 5 votes, causes much excitement in the politi cal world, and it is freely predicted that the g-overnment cannot last long-. The second reading of the East Lon don water bill was opposed by Mr. Shaw-Lefevre, president of the local government board, on behalf of the government, but the measure was carried in the face of vigorous efforts upon the part of the whips by a vote of 228 to 227. All the Parnellites and many of the McCarttiyites were ab sent. STRIKERS SURRENDER. The Coke Workers Lay Down Their Arms Without Gaining a Point. UxioxtowX, April 7. The strike is over, and ignominious defeat marks its collapse. The rioters from both sections of the coke field have laid down their arms and gone peacefully to their homes. The movement was a miserable failure, and hot a point was gained by the men. All the works in. the southern end of the region are either running- or preparing to start up between this and Monday, while those in the northern end are in full operation. Another African Nation Annexed. Cape Town, April 7.-The annexa tion of Pondaland has been effected without firing a shot. The chiefs and people of the newly annexed country are quietly submitting-. This is an other triumph for the so-called im perial policy of Premier Cecil Rhodes of Cape Colony and is a most impor tant addition to the British domain in South Africa. For eight years it has been under a protectorate which was the cause of considerable friction. Defied the Rreach of Promise Salt. Carthage, Mo., April 7. J. Q. Davidson, the wealthy widower of this city, against whom a suit for 810,000 damages was recently filed by Miss Mary Sheshane for breach of promise, was married last evening to Miss Florence Harp.

Dunn's Weekly Trade Review Reports Better Business. President's Veto Gave Strength and Confidence. FAILURES DECREASE. Wheat Higher Because of Re ported Injury to Crop. rNiw York, April 7. R. G. Dun fe Co.'a Review says: Improvement in business has continued since the presi dent's veto, which has been sustained in the house. But the best news of the week is the great decrease in failures, of which full returns are given for the first time by months in the quarterly statement. The num ber was 2,090 in January, 1,205 in Feb ruary, and 1,005 in March. The com mercial liabilities were $31,320,867 in January; 517,930,419 in February and $24,660,693 in March. Nearly half the commercial liabili ties were of firms failing- during the .first month; much more than half the trading liabilities, 54 per cent as the statement shows; 42 per cent of the manufacturing liabilities and 49 per cent of the other commercial liabili ties. Moreover, nearly two-thirds of the banking- liabilities were of fail ures in the first month, and over half of the railroad liabilities. Though the number of commercial failures, 4,297 in the United States, was never equalled in any quarter until the third quarter of last year, the average of liabilities is only $14, 890, which is lower than has appeared in the records of thirty-eight years at a'ny time closely ceding- any serious reverse. "The degree of com mercial soundness and health thereby indicated gives ground for hope that the liquidations consequent upon the disaster of 1893 have been in large measure accomplished. Wheat has been lifted about 4 cent3 by reports of serious injury to the plant, but the accounts are more than usually conflicting- and there is much uncertainty about the extent of the injury. Corn has declined 1 cents with Western receipts of 2,596,139 bushels. Pork illustrates the con trariness of the hog by rising half a dollar with lard a khade higher. The failures for the past week have been 249 in the United States, against 195 last year, and twenty-six in Can ada, against twenty-eight last year. Clearing Bouse Returns.

CLOSE OF THE POULARD CASE. Plaintiff and Defendant Reiterate Their Denials The Arguments. Washington, April 7.- Yesterday the stream of testimony in the Pol-lard-Breckinridg-e litig-ation, which had grown to be exceeding-ly weari some, was broug-ht to its close after five continuous Weeks of sensational ism. The final rebuttal and surrebut tal consisted of more denials by the plaintiff and defendant, leaving- the final status of the case what it has larg-ely been throug-hout a question of veracity between the man and the woman. Madeline Pollard took the stand to purge herself from the stain of the mock marriag-e with blind Alec Julian, as well as to repeat with di.matic emphasis, peculiarly her own, the de nial that the agreement to marry be tween herself and Colonel Breckin ridge had been anything but a contract made in good faith, on her part at least. She also talked of tha birth of her children with a freedom which would have seemed astonishing but for the matter of fact way in which all manner of unusual things have been discussed throughout this unusual case. Colonel Breckinridge repeated in all the various keys of negation in which his silvery tongue is skilled, the de nial of the story of Mary Yanee5 the colored cook, and other vital details of the case for the plaintiff. Arguments to the jury begin Mon day morning so the case will probably close by Wednesday night. How's This!

At Death's Door Blood Poisoned After Ty phoid Fever A Marvelous Cure by Hood's After All Else Failed. -C. I. Hood Co., Lowell, Mass.: Dear Sirs Twenty-five years ago I had a bilious fever, and later it turned into typhoid fever, and for five weeks I lay like one dead, tu at last I pulled through and got up around. I soou discovered on my left leg Just above ths knee a small brown spot about as big as a three cent piece, which puffed up but did not hurt me or feel sore. I did not pay any attention to it until two years after, when It commenced to spread and have the appearance cf a ring worm. It itched and burned and I commenced doctor ing, but to no avail. I Cot Only Momentary Relief, And sometimes not even that. I could not sleep nights, and on account of the itching 1 scratched the spot until the blood would run. In hot weather my elbows and all my Joint9 were Just the same, and what I have suffered I cannot de scribe with a pen. Last February I tried an herb for the blood and it broke out In the worst form of a rash an over my body. I began my scratching, and scales would fall off. The soros continued to discharge and I longed to die. Finally my husband bought a bottle of Hood s Sarsaparilla and I had not taken more than half of it before I bejran to change for the better. I have had four bottles, Now I Am All Well but two little spots on my leg. I can now sleep and eat well and work all the time. I am 64 Hood's51 Cures years old, and the mother of eleven children, and think I can do as much as any one my age.

STATE JOURNAL, SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL 7, 1S94. 5 y; T1IE NEW 31 EN GO IX. Installation of the Becently Elected Members of the Council. C0D3CILM FELLOWS IS HONORED. II la Made Preatdei Tor ttae EniDiac t rtb. Conmtll Year-Buiaeu Transacted. Jv The exit of the old city council and the formation of a naw one, was the or der of business at the adjourned meet ing of the city legislators last night. The old council ceased to exist by adjourning Bine die. and the new council composed of those elected last Tuesday and the member whose terms remain unexpired, form the new council. Tnere is only one change made by the new order of things. The seat of Albert Earnest, Democrat of the Second ward, is occupied by W. C. Stephenson. Republican. With all due respect to Mr. Earnest, who is as good a man as the Democrats could have found, the change is probably not one for the worse. The ostensible purpose for which the council held a meeting last night was to canvass the result of tiie municipal elec tion held last Tuesday. The clerical worlc of the canvass wai performed by Mr. Holman, 3Ir. Srevens and Mr. Griggs. It was merely a for mality to guard against any mistakes or errors. No c-iange was maie in the result from the vote published several days ago. The result of the clerks was approved by the council and the report with a lengthy table showing both the male and female vote in eacn precinct for each candidate, was placed on tile with it. After this the successful candidates for councilmen were sworn by the city clerk to support the constitution of the United States, the constitution of the tate of Kansas and the ordinances of Topeka. Those sworn in were W. C. Stephenson, S. B. Bradford, S. Ettlinger, James Burges3 and J. T. Fulton. They all agreed to the terms named by Clerk McFadden. Mr. Pattison of the First ward was absent. Then the old council adjourned sine die, and the new council convened. It was then that Albert Earnest, the lone Democrat of the council, vacated his seat which he has occupied so long and faithfully. Mr. Earnest always took good care of the interests of his ward, lie left the seat as gracefully as possi ble, stroking his whiskers which he has vowed not to shave off until he is re elected to the city council. He took a chair by the stove and realized that he was a private citizen. Mr. Stephenson took his chair. After the council meeting Mr. Earnest thanked Mayor Harrison and each of the councilmen individually, with some degree of feeling, for the kindness and courtesy they as members of the council have always extended him. Councilman Charles A. Fellows was elected president of the city council for the ensuing year, on motion of Mr. Ett linger, the outgoing president. Mr. Fel lows was elected unanimously. It was the general feeling that the 4th ward was entitled to the otSce, and Mr. Fellows is a good presiding officer. Ia recognition of this honor Mr. Fellows bought a box of ten cent cigars and dis tributed them amoni those present. The same rules that the council fol lowed last year were adopted to govern the proceedings of the council for the ensuing year. Othsr Matters. The petition of W. D. Disbrow, F. E. Sheard and ten others, for a walk on Western avenue from Third street to the Scott tract, was referred to the commit tee on streets and walks. An ordinance was passed appropriat ing f 137 to pay the judges and clerks of the last election. The petition of T. W. Howard, the agent of Willie Sells' "great syndicate show, for a free permit to show in To peka, was recommended favorably by the license committee, and the report was adopted. The permission is granted however, with the understanding that the circus wagons will keep off the brick-paved streets, and use only the asphalt or stone-paved streets. The council decided that the circus wagons were too hard on the brick pavement. This seems to be a great vindication for the asphalt as against the brick. The bond of city scavenger, M. E. Lowe, in the sum of $1,000, w as approved. The sureties are C. H. Holcroft, John Armstrong, John A. Bidwell and W. A. DeMoss. Mr. Griggs recommended that an extra cable be purchased for the city dump, which was agreed to. The sum of $125 was appropriated for the first payment on the dump. The ways and means committee was authorized to prepare an ordinance regulating the use of the dump. On motion of Mr. Bradford the street commissioner was ordered to make no further grades or other improvements causing a large expenditure, except by direction of the mayor and council. Mr. Bradford said the city was liable to run out of cash before July and desperate efforts are needed to keep down ex penses. By a resolution from Mr. Fellows the city clerk was ordered to advertise again for bids for the construction of sewer No. 16. The clerk advertised several weeks ago, but not one bid was received. The council adjourned without date. All members were present except Mr. Pattisou. John Jordan, an aged colored man, ap peared at the police station this morning and swore to a complaint against Berry Elder, also colored, of North Topeka. Jordan says that Elder came and dis turbed a meeting at the colored Meth odist church in North Topeka by swear ing and using abusive language. Abtclate Merit. No other plaster has been produced which gains so many testimonials of high value as those continuously accordedto Allcock's Porous Plaster, and the only motive for these exceptional commenda tions is the fact that it is medicinal and pharmaceutical preparation of superior value.

Gaw was a most entertain ing hostess this afternoon to twenty of Mrs. P. L. Super's particular friends, and when the cards .of invitation were re ceived bearing Mrs. Gaw's name and Historical Julia, Mrs. Super's benefit." it piqued their curiosity somewhat. When the guests arrived they were ushered into the library and after some preliminary conversation were treated to a very interesting sketch of the Julias of history, which the hostess read and in terspersed with famous quotations. The first was the Julia of Rome, and the cus toms of that time with her manner of dress and a description of her marriage i were grapnicany given. -Next came I Julia da Hotel de Rambouillet, who I was wooed for twelve years before con senting to be married. I he reason, for this was that she found life in the famous salon among such brilliant men and women, too sweet to exchange for prosy married life, but she was at last won when her lover presented her with an album containing thirty-nine stanzas, each stanza being composed by a -different celebrity of the time, with a flower for each one. The album is still in existence and the verse uuder the violet is often quoted. Another Julia, famous for nothing in particular, except that a poem was written on her death. from which the following lines are quotedi A rose she lived, and as the roses, but the time of a morning." The sketch was interwoven with many humorous situa tions, and was most interesting to the guests, not only for the application to Mrs. Soper's name but for its literary merit. The ladies spent much of the afternoon on the lawn, the warmth and sunshine proving very alluring, and in doors bright hued carnations, and roses gave a breath of spring there as well. The daintiest of lunches was served as a conclusion to the afternoon's pleasures. Mrs. L. Gandy planned and executed a surprise on her husband Thursday even ing in honor of his thirty -sixth birthday. The neighborhood friends and members of the lodges to which he belongs were included and a very pleasant evening was spent.

A Declaration Made by the Great Dec tor l-'ot hercill for the Benefit of the People or the World II aa .Arous ed attach Attention. London-, Eng., March 31. The follow ing statement made by the late Dr. J. Milner Fothergill, the eminent scientist, who was physician for the London Hw pitaL for diseases of the chest, has made quite a sensation. After denouncing oils and similar substances when used as food, he said: "Fatty, oily foods cannot be taken by those whose stomachs are weak or whose digestive organs are out of order. What food should such people have? I say they need food which acts as a strengthener and sustainer, as fuel to feed the lamp of life, and that is starch food which will be readily assimilated by the digestive organs is the food for peo ple whose digestive organs are weak. It was only natural that such a state ment coming from so high an authority should have made a profound impression among the leading physicians and scien tists of Europe, and it brings into special prominence the recent discovery of pre digested starch food known to doctors, to scientists and the world as Paskola. Comparatively few people outside the highest medical circles know of this wonderful discovery, but it is known to possess the qualities of flesh-forming, strength-imparting, life-giving power which has never been known before in the history of the world. Tests which Save been made showing a weak, pale, run-down condition, accom panied with indigestion and general loss or energy, nave snown most remarkable results, and it is not improbable that the discovery of Paskola will be accepted as the flesh-forming food of the nineteenth century by the highest authorities in both Europe and America. Certainlv. it is superseding cod liver oil3, beef tea. and the fatty preparations which have been used so extensively in the past, and the results so far achieved amply warrant the wisdom of those who have taken such action. A pamphlet giving full particulars re specting Paskola will be sent on applica tion to the Pre-Digested Food Co., SO Reade St., 2s. Y. City. A CHARMING CONCERT Given by Mrs. C. S. deed and Prat. Leib J'or Iacleside. The concert given last evening by Prof. W. H. Leib, of Kansas City, and Mrs. Chas. S. Gleed, for the benefit of Ingleside, wa3 a most enjoyable one in every particular. Adthough it began to rain about the time the people were ready to go tovJLi brary hall, there was a good attendance. There were about 375 present, and those who did attend felt amply repaid. Prof. Leib opened the programme with that sweet song by Tours, entitled: "Because of Thee." Prof. Leib has a high tenor voice of great effectiveness, and he sings with much expression. He created a most favorable impression. Mrs. C. S. Gleed, who needs no introduction to a Topeka audience, then played the 'Scherzo in E flat," by Brahms, and Lorelei" by Seeling, in a thoroughly masterful manner. Her execution was faultless, and she played with artistic expression. "Among the Lilies," by Danoi, was next sung by Prof. Leib, and it received a merited encore. The next was the star piano piece of the evening. It was Beethoven's sonata, "Appassionata," from opus 57. It is a magnificent solo and Mrs. Gleed showed herself to be a master of it. It consisted of the four movements: Allegro assai, andante con mow, allegro ma non troppo, presto. She played Scnu bert's serenade for an encore. Prof. Leib's next number was the recitative from Handel's oratorio of Jephthah: "Deeper and Deeper Still and the aria, "Waft Her, Angels." This is a highly classical piece and is very difficult, but it was rendered in an easy and pleasing manner. He received a hearty encore and responded with a humorous song, which was very catchy. So well pleased was the audience that he was again called out and sang "Little Boy Blue." The lovers of Chopin's com positions were given a treat as Mrs. Gleed then played the following of Chopin's pieces: Impromptu in G flat, opus 51, Waltz, opus 70, No. 1, Noc turne in G minor, opus 37, and Ballade in A flat, opus 47. The closing number on th? programme was the sacred solo, "Easter Song," by Sheppard. In this song, Prof. Leib showed the full power of his voice. He sang it an unexcelled manner, and after he had finished, he was called back. At the close of the "Appassionata" by Mrs. Gleed, James Moore appeared on the stage and presented Mrs. Gleed with a handsome bouquet of roses. TO COST 2,000. Improvements to be Made at tha First Methodist Church. The ladies society of the First Metho dist church has decided to tit up the in terior of the church and make it look as good as new.

The prospects of a legal argument in the Pollard Breckinridge case, did not prove suffi ciently attractive to draw out "even the members of the bar to Judge Bradley's court today. Neither principals were there.altbough their lawyers bristled with legal docu ments while in their wake followed sun dry colored porters laden with stacks of bound volumes. The proceedings were begun by Mr. Calderon Carlisle, who said that the court in the prayer of the plaintiff for instructions to the jury, fourteen distinct instructions covering every possible aspect of the case were asked of the court. He said if the plaintiff and defendant were found to have had illicit intimacy before the promise of marriage, that would constimte no defense end if such had illicit intercourse with others and he knew it before he made the promise it was not a defense. The jury must find for the plaintiff unless they find that there was a mutual agreement not to carry out the sem blance of a contract and to find it by a preponderance of evidence. If the jury believed the plaintiff to be unchaste and the defendant knew of her uncbastity, that unchastity does not con stitute a defense. If the jury believes she told him that she had been intimate with Rhodes and thereafter promised marriage, that intimacy does not form a justification for breach of contract. The secret marriage to another after same promises to marry and before oth ers, does not constitute a defense but an aggravation of damages. That if he was married April 29, kept that marriage a secret and thereafter entered into the contract, that marriage is not a defense. If the jury finds the plaintiff was chaste, save with the defendant, and that attempts to impeach her character were made not in good faith, but to con trive a defense, they are to consider the fact as an aggravation of the damages. ALL FAVOR THE CANAL. Governor Watte, Lewslllna-, Bosr Want I'nitctd States to Own Nlcarangun Canal Boston, April 7. The Traveller of this city, which has been an earnest ad vocate of the building of the Nicaraguan canal, recently sent out letters to the gov ernors of the various states, and the more prominent members of congress, asking their opinions. The governors of the southern states without exception, either favor the gov ernment building and owning the canal outright or extending aid to whatever corporation builds it. Gov. Waite of Colorado, says: "The United States government in conjunc tion with the Central American republics should build this canal at national ex pense." Gov. McGraw of Washington, believes that the United States should construct, own and operate the" Canal. Gov. Hogg, of Texas, takes very pro "nounced grounds againet the United States fostering such an enterprise while under private controL He says: "This government should prohibit foreign or private interference with that canal and should construct,' own and operate it herself." Gov. Lewelling, of Kansas, declares that it would be desirable that the United States should own and operate the canal as the exclusive property of the United States. A NEW SILVER BILL. On Prepared to Meet All Objections to Selg-ntorag-e Bill. Washington, April 7. A bill which it is claimed meets in a large part, the ob jections stated by President Cleveland to the Bland seigniorage bill, was today introduced by Representative Meyer (Dem., La.) It provides for the coinage of standard silver dollars and for the issue of new bonds in lieu of bonds heretofore authorized. The bill repeals such portions of the resumption act of 1875 and author izes the issue of 4V and 5 per cent bonds. In lieu of these the secretary of the treasnry is authorized to sell bonds of $2 and multiples thereof, payable in coin after five years bearing interest not exceeding 4 per cent. Provision is made for using the proceeds of these bonds for settling outstanding bonds. The secretary of the treasury is author ized to coin into standard silver dollars 42,660,245 fine ounces of silver bullion and to issue silver certificates on this coin. National banks are given power to deposite silver certificates in the treas ury and issue treasury certificates there fore BEER BREWED FROM CORN.

Wash inqtos, April 7. There was an echo over the contested election cases when the house met today. Two week ago the house adopted an order instruct ing the sergeant-at-arms to arrest ab sentees. Immediately after the reading of the journal his report was submitted Showing that all absentees except such as were known to be in the city had been summoned by telegram. The report stated that seven of the ab sentees had appeared in their seats sinco the order was made, sick were absent on account of eicknesa, two were on their way to Washington and made no reply to the summons. Mr. Springer (Illinois) moved to dis charge the warrant issued by the ser-geant-at-arms to arrest absentees. Tho Republicans declined to vote and tho Democrats mustered only fifty-five votes in favor of the motion. Mr. Reed made the point of no quorum. During the progress of the roll call, Mr Caldwell who was last Tuesday elected mayor of Cincinnati, entered the hall and was given an ovation. The speaker bowed to him from the rostrum and on both sides the members applauded cor dially. The Republicans did not vote on the roll call and the announcement 137 to 7 developed a lack of a quorum and a call of the house was ordered. The call developed the presence of 328 members. The vote recurred on tha motion to discharge the warrant of the sergeant-at-arms- Again the Republi cans refused to vote and again the Dem ocratic quorum failed, A motion to adjourn was then carried, 95 to 60. FALL OF SILVER. Its Recovery Inevitable If Indian MfnH Are Upiixd. LowDOX, April 7. The Staliste, in sketching the history of the silver mar ket since 1888, concludes that the recent fall in the price of silver was due to a panic and that its recovery is inevitable if the Indiau mints are reopened, per haps to 36. But, the Staliste adds, the extent of this will depend on whether J India w ilf resume buying upon the usual scuiu.
