The Houm* 1’s.hhiw the Joint ltosolntllin to llialure the Public Debt—The Semite Still Knauaoil In the t'ouNlderutlon of the Hirer unil llnrhor Hill. Washington, July 14.—On motion of Crain, of Texas, the bill was passed mak- ! ing $250,000 the limit of the cost of the pub lic building at Galveston, Texas. I The house then went into a committee ! of the whole, Crisp in the chair, for the j consideration of the surplus resolution, au ■ arrangement having been made by which general debate shall close at 3 o’clock. I Morrison offered the following amend- ' ment: “The surplus or balance herein re- i ferred to shall be available surplus ascer tained according to the form of the state ment of the United States treasury, of the ; assets and liabilities of the treasury of the i United States, employed June 30,1886. Hewitt, of New Vork, took the fioor in opposition to the resolution. Hewitt was followed by Weaver, of Iowa, Randall,of Pennsylvania, and Pay- son, of Illinois, and Breckenridge, of Ken tucky, in favor of the resolution; and by McKinley, of Ohio, in opposition to tin resolution, and in a general criticism of the financial policy of the present admin istration. Reed and Dingley, of Maine, opposed the resolution. Reagan favored it, and Henderson, of Iowa, republican, did likewise, and Mor rison closed the general debate in support of the resolution. A five mi ute debate then began and i ran on without interest for half an hour. The amendment offered by Morrison this morning was adopted without divis ion. The amendment fiftered by McKinley yesterday providing that $1.00,000,00;) set apart for the purpose of redeeming legal tender notes of the United States shall not be used for any other purpose, was rejected -ylU4 to 132. The amendment ottered by Heed, au thorizing the secretary of the treasury at, any time to suspend action under this reso lution until the balance shall equal $130,- 000,000, was rejected—72 to 140. The amendment offered by Hiscock, of the same purport as McKinley’s amend ment, was rejected—72 to 120. An amendment offered by Weaver, of Iowa, reducing the reserve to $59,000,000 was rejected—11 to 130. The amendment offered by Warner, of Ohio, for the substituting of United States notes for national bank notes was rejected —73 to 110. The amendment offered by Wheeler, of Alabama authorizing $10,000,000 a year of the surplus to be used in support of com mon schools was ruled "out on a point ofor der. The amendment offered by Grosvenor. of Ohio, providing that nothing in this act shall be construed to convey to the public any doubt as to the wisdom, patriotism and integrity of the president or the secretary of the treasury was ruled out on a point of order. McKinley, of Ohio, moved to recommit the joint resolution with instructions to the committee on ways and means to reuort it back with an amendment previ ously offered by him. Lost—yeas 118. nays 155.

After digression upon the jetty system at the mouth of the Mississippi, Harris, bringing back the discussion 10 the matter immediately before the senate, suggested that if the river and haroor bill were re committed in its present state it would, win n reported back, have to take its place on the calendar and go through precisely the same action as if it had not been already considered. The chair said he wouldnot now decide l hat question. Edmunds said the bill as it came from the house was larger in amount and more diversified in objects than any river and harbor bill (hat ever came from the house before. Ho felt that, a totality of business in place of being beneficial to the people was injurious, and that it was teaching the peo ple to be looking to congress and the na tional treasury for everything, instead of :m themselves. id every session for seven years past he had heard those homilies about river and harbor bills.

Mullen, of the exec- u mittee of Knights, who came vestimate the cause of the strike, conference with the factory He and the _ local board asked for Washington, July 12.—By degrees the facts are leaking out Iconcerning the con test over the case of Mr. Goode in the sen ate. It was given out on the authority of a republican senator last night that sharp words had passed between a leading dem ocratic senator and Mr. Van Wyc-k when I he latter endeavored to explain why he had refused to pair himself by telegraph against one of the senators who was op posing Mr. Goode. Mr. Van Wyck was requested to do this in a telegraphic mes sage supposed to have been sent by Senator Harris, who is Mr. Goode’s particular friend and advocute. It is inferred, also, t hat Governor Harris was the senator be tween whom and Mr. Van Wyck the sharp personalities occurred. The Nebraska seuator denies that anything of the kind occurred, however. He says the story was made up out of whole cloth. He added, however, that he was asked for a pair in favor of Mr. Goode, and refused it, although he bad been disposed favorably toward Mr. Goode all along. Another in stance of irritation growing out of the con test involved was exhibited between Mr. Evarts and a prominent republican senator whom the senatorial source of the report refused to name. It is related that this unnamed republican senator was laboring with Mr. Hearts on account of bis vacil lating course in tne committee in the Goode case, when the New Yorksenatorattempt- : ed to ju-.‘tify himself. The other senator ; then lost his patience and said : “OH, DAMN A COWARD,’’ and walked away abruptly. There is a | good deal of gossip here to-day about this incident. Senators rngalls and Mahone increase of fifteen per cent, for all opera- j are about equally credited with the tartre- tives in the factory on the ground that ply to the distinguished New Yorker. Mr. (key could not maiptain themselves at less. Evarts was asked by jmur correspondent The officials of the factory argued that the j to-day whether there was any truth in the mill is not able to advance wages and [ story. The senator replied, “Oh, that oc- maile exhibits of the company’s business 1 currcd in executive session. We can not to prove that they were hot able to pay I talk about these things. I do not care to higher wages. The matter is still under j discuss it.” The extreme brevity of these advisement and will be consul- ; three periods indicates that the inquiry ered further to-morrow by the board of directors of the factory. The knights are firm in their demand for high er wages and the factory officials arc equal- ACQUITTED OF MURDER. “To President Cleveland, Washington, D.

London, July 14.—The Times comment ing on Parnell’s denial of Lord Harting- ton’s assertion that the nationals are in league with the feniaus, says: Parnell’s denial is a mere waste flf breath. It seems necessary to remind him that while the marquis of Hartington is a man of umblein- islied honor and veracity, Parnell quite re cently was convicted of having deliberate ly and repeatedly affirmed whatlhe knows to be false. The Standard says Parnell carries his protestation of innocence to an absurd length. The question ho ought to have faced is whether or not he has availed him self of the service or monies of extremists, To accept money from the Fenians and then to disown them is not the course of conduct which commends itself to English men.
