VOL. VI. NO. 1.925 k QUORUM Os Democrats Present and Voting. TARIFF DAY FIXED. To Be Passed January 28th. Speaker Crisp Bounces Boutelle. Washington. Jan. 8. —After routine morning work, which occupied nearly an hour and in which there was nothing of public interest. Mr. Chandler offered a resolution directing the judiciary com mittee to enquire into and report its opinion as to cases in which the presi dent may constitutionally send agents or commissioners to foreign countries with out the advice and consent of congress. ••Let that resolution lie over,” said Mr. Gorman, and the resolution went over for a day. Then Mr. Hoar’s reso lution (offered last week) calling i>n the secretary of the treasury for a statement as to payments to Mr. Blount, .commis sioner to Hawaii, was laid before the senate, and Mr. Gorman moved its refer ence to the committee on foreign rela tions. The Hoar resolution was referred to the committee on foreign relations. Then Mr. Turpie offered a resolution, which went over, delating among other things that foreign intervention it; the political affairs of the Hawiian islands will be regarded as an act un friendly to the government of the United States. The Price resolution as to Hawaii was laid before the senate, and went over until Wednesday. In the House. When the speaker took his seat there was an air of bustling activity in the house. The galleries were unusually full; there being scarcely standing room in ihe public gallery. A feeling of sub dued excitement pervaded the floor of the house, and little knots of members were seen in different parts of the hall earnestly conversing. The usual controversy between Mr. Boutelle and the speaker came up im mediately after the reading of the jour nal, and gave rise to more excitement than on any previous day. Mr. Reed and Mr. Boutelle spoke in favor of con sidering the latter’s Hawaiian resoln tion, and the latter again made the point that it was a question of privilege, while the special order from the committee on rules relative to the tariff bill was merely, a privileged report and that the former took precedence over the latter. The speaker repeated his ruling made in the Fitty-Second congress, holding that the question of consideration could not be raised against a resolution emana ting from the committee on rules, and that it took precedence over all other questions. He held that, when the committee on rules brought in a special order changing a certain rule, no member could attack the resolution and entrench himself be hind th? rule to be changed. When the speaker finished he requested that Mr.' Boutelle should take his seat. “Yes, yes,” said Mr. Boutelle, sarcas tically. ‘•The gentleman,” said the speaker, still more emphatically, “will take his seat.” ■ ■ -. p' • c;' i - ■ i orous applauie iron side of the chamber. The year and nays wore ordered on , Mr. Catchings’ motion for the previous question on the resolution reported by ' him last Friday, fixing the time for the 1 consideration of the tariff bill and re sulted as follows: Yeas, 189; nays, 0— , 10 more than a quorum—and tuu pre vious question was ordered.

LETTER TO INTER-OCEAN. The Governor’s Determination to Stop the Fight at Ail Hazzards. Chicago, Jan. B.—The Inter Ocean prints a letter from Attorney General Lamar, of Florida, in which that official says tire Corbett-Mitchell fight will not be "pulled off” in Florida during the present year. It is us follows: Tallahassee, Jan. 5. Your favor of the 2d instant to hand. Therein you request that I give you some reliable information upon the probability of the Corbett-Mitchell prizefight taking place in Florida. You intimate that you desire this for the guidance of “-sports,” now looking toward this state. Governor Mitchell has declared emphatically that he would use all power at his command to prevent the Corbett-Mitchell fight. As know him, and the v old hickory” qualities of the governor, this declaration itself settles it that there will be no light unless the prizefighters can, at the last moment, evade the authorities. The law in this state is ample to prevent the fight and punish fighters, should they succeed in having the “mill.” The gover nor is charged by tbe constitution with seeing that the laws are faithfully execu ted, and in carrying out such command he can use the civil and military artillery of the state, if it becomes necessary he will use the latter as well as the former, but at, present I think lie deems the civil author ities ample to cope with prize fighting. You may safely say to readers of The In ter Ocean that the Corbett-Mitchell prize fight cannot be “pulled off” iu Florida iu the year 1894. This letter is a trifle extra official in lan guage and its general scope, but you asked for information and it is given. Very truly yours, • W. B. Lamar, Attorney General. SOLDIER FOUND DEAD. Suspicious Surroundings Causes the Arrest of His Cousin. Birmingham, Ala., Jan. B.—Some ne ..gro children found the dead body of a handsome young man, neatly dressed in United States cavalry uniform in some dense woods near the southern outskirts of the city Sunday morning. Papers in his pockets indicated that the man’s name was Eugene Walker; that he was a sergeant in company H sixth Nebraska cavalry. He had evi dently been murdered, as his pockets were found to be rilled. Two pistol balls had entered just behind his left ear and powder burnsattested that the weapon had been placed against the head. 1 Eugene Byars identified the body as that of Eug ‘lie Walked, a cousin of his. He said Walker was \en route to his lather’s home in Eldridge, Walker coun ty, on a furlough. Walker had stopped over to spend a few days) with relatives here.

' - J FORGERS A System of Keys to Protect the Bankers Freni liaised Drafts. Chicago, Jan. B.—The company has been incorporated, with a capital of $50,000. The incorporators are Henry L. Kent, of the First National bank; A. G. Warner and William C. Shaw. Its plan makes it practically impossible to “raise” the amount of drafts without being detected. It will do away with the advice letter system, as the drafts are made to “advise” them selves through a system of ciphers and keys. A banker issuing a draft on his met ropolitan correspondent enters a certain number given in the key near his signa ture to the draft. When the advice number is correct there is no chance of fraud, as each correspondent is given a separate key of advice numbers which cannot be duplicated or changed. A separate key and system is used by each bank. A Big Montgomery Firm Fails. Montgomery, Ala. Jan. B.—The Pollak company, one of the largest wholesale and retail dry goods houses in Alabama, has failed.

It is now impossible to get at an estimate of the liabilities and assets, but both sums are probably quite large. John Wanumaker’s Uncle Dead. Philadelphia, Jan. B.—George W. Wanamaker, uncle of ex-Postmaster General Wanamaker, is dead, aged 70 years.

The older citizens of Rome all know Mrs. Miller. She came to live here with her husbind, Dr. H. V. M. Miller, about 1848, and spent twelve or fourteen of the best years of her life in this community. Her positoa in society was necessarily a prominent one. Dr. Miller was then in the prime of life, prominent in his pro fession and politics, and bis cultured wife was a fit helpmeet for a man of dis- 'inction. She was at that time a member of the Methodist church and active in its ministrations, but has of late years been a member of the Episcopal communion , They lived and dispensed hospitality ■at the beautiful country seat I afterwards owned by Dr. S. P. Smith and now occupied by Mr. L. A. Dean’s family. Mrs. T. W. Alexander, a cousin and adopted daughter of Mrs. Miller, I spent her girlhood and was married i there.

She had many friends here who will be saddened by the news of her death. Mrs. Miller had been sick for seme time, following an attack of the grip, and tier death was not unexpected by her friends. Dr. Miller has also been very sick with the grip, and in that weak con dition the death of his beloved wife was a crushing blow to him. It is not known whether he will be well enough to ac company the remains to Rome. Further notice of the arrangements on the arrival of the party will be given in to-morrow’sT’KißUNE.
