from a band practice, entered the saloon of

UNBURIED FOR YEARS.
Strange Discoveries in 3an Francisco
Undertaking Establishments
San Francisco Special to Xru: York World.
Quite a sensation Las been caused by the
discovery that dead bodies have been kept
for years at a number of undertakiug estan
hshments in this city. A coffin containing
the remains of Mrs. Helen E. Luther, who
died seven years ago, was found in the back
room of Cowan & Porter's burial parlors bv
a health inspector, who ordered them to be
removed to the cemetery Wednesday. Mrs.
Luther was an alleged daughter of Mrs. Cun
ningham. " hose sensational trial for the
murder of Dr. Bu.dell so much interested
New York a quarter of a century ago. Mrs.
Cunningham was tbe landlady of Dr.
Burdell, a very prominent New York
dentist, and lived with him as his wife. Dr.
Burdell attempted successfully to exrric ite
himself from the entanglement, and told
Ids friend- that he feared the woman. One
day he was found murdered in his office.
Mrs. Burdeli, or Cunningham, and some of
her lodge, s were arrested for the e.dnio. A
great deal of circumstantial evidence was
adduced against her, but she was not con
victed. Then she claimed that she was the
doctor's wife, and. to make her story
stronger, eho pre ended that she was about
to give birth to a child. A new-born infant
was procured from the hospital, and she
asserted that it was ths doctor’s child.
That child came to California with Mrs.
Cunningham and her son, grew up, got
married and died, and it was her body that
was kept so long unburiod. Mrs. Cun
n.ugbau, who obtaiued some money by a
compromise from the Burdell estuto, went
t > Honors, Mexico, and bought some raiues.
These mines became very valuable, and
Mrs. Cun- ingham was soon very wealthy.
Thun Capt. Williams married her. The
mines failed and Mrs. Cunningham, with
only a remnant of her fortune, returned to
New York to settle up some matters there.
he realized quite a sum, which Williams
got possession of and then deserted her. Hhe
soon after died in poverty.
"In 1881,” said Mr. Porter, of the firm of
undertakers where the body was found, "1
went with Mrs. Willis ns to where her
daughter, the widow of Luther, w is dying.
Mrs. Lu her told what disposition she
wished to be made of her bony. She was
embalmed at our place, and Mrs. Williams
went back to Mexico. We were to keep
the bodv until she could have it forwarded
to New York for interment. She never
sent for it, but became poor and died in
New York. Hsr son, Thomas Cunningham,
came to our place of business once t • look
after the matter, but went away again,
asking us to advise him whoa we decided to
bury the body.”
Another c ’rose of a woman which has re
mained unburied fo et least nine years has
beeu found at Massey’s undertaking estab
lishment, on Sacramento street. The -ofllu
is in a Hermetically sealed casket aud box
ready for shipment. That has town its con
dition ever since tho woman died. The box
looks old and dirty, and has been used as a
boot-black stand by the employes in Mas
sey’s place. Mr Massey said: “Previous
to 1858 I was in Europe. While I was t hero
this corpse was brought into my establish
ment. On my return I found the box in tbe
condition you see it.”
The identity of this woman was discov
ered yesterday. Her name was Abby
Esther Hheephard. Hhe died at a well
known lodging bouse, No. 319 Mush street,
on Oct. 20, 1879, in her 31st year. Her bus
Iwnd stated that ho was connect -d with the
firm of H. B. Smith & Cos., Houth Water
street, Providence, R. I. The body is still
in tiie bath room of the uu lertaker's simp.
Mr Massey declares that he will not bury
it without an order from the husband unless
compelled to do so by the health authori
ties. The corouer behoves that there are
sutpiciou* circumstance*connected with the
uea , aud will bold an investigation.

THE MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1888.
CONGRESSMEN AT PLAY.
HOW TIME 18 WASTED IN THE
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Possibilities of Parliamentary Prac
tice-Debate on the Direct Tax Bill—
Fiffhtinjr for Time-Snarls for the
Speaker.
Washington, Dec. 29.— Any man can
tangle a ffsbing line, bur not one in ten can
untangle it. It is easy to involve a deliber
ative body in a parliamentary snarl, but
not one in a hundred can unravel it. Scores
of young men interested in debating socie
ties have leMrned to their sorrow that the
study of Cushing’s Manual does not carry
with it a practical knowledge of its rules.
The brightest of men is apt to lose his head
when in the chair. Minds as shrewd as his
own are below him, ready to profit by the
least of his mistake*. All remorselessly bad
ger x.im on the first opportunity. Points of
order are made, and puzzling questions of
privilege momentarily confront him.
Once rattled, he is gone. Every effort to
release himself fixes him more firmly in
the parliamentary mud. He must either
counsel with clearer heads or trust to an
adjournment for relief.
The possibilities of pari i amen tar y prac
tice were aptly illustrated in the House last
April. The plummet sounded dnptiis never
reached before. The House finally surprised
itself. It wound itsolf finally into a kndl
that only the sword of an Alexander could
untie. Carlisle is as clear-headed as
any of his predecessors, yet he lost
himself in the maze of his
own decisions, aud only regained
his footing by the kind consideration of
equally clear-headed parliamentarians on
the floor below him. The details may be
dry, but they will interest thousands who
enjoy such tilts.
The trouble arose in the consideration of
the direct tax bill. It was debated in com
mittee of the whole for one afternoon. On
the next day Ezra Taylor, who had chargo
of it, tried to limit debate to a i hour. Its
opponents wanted six hours.,, Taylor would
not give wav, and after a sharp fight suc
ceeded iu making his limit. Ho then moved
to go into committee on the bill. The op
ponents of the measure were fighting for
time. It was of vital importance to them
to keep the bill out of committee. These
four motions indicate their line of defense:
Gen. Oates—l move that the House take a
recess until 5 o'clock this evening.
Gen. Weaver—l move to amend that motion
by striking out “6 o'clock" and inserting “4
o'clock."
Mr. Breckinridge—And I move an amendment
to tbe amendment that the recess be taken un
til 4:30 o'clock.
Gn. Weaver—Pending those motions, I move
that the House do now adjourn.
The speaker put the question on the latter
motion, aud said "the noes seem to nave it.”
Gen. Oates wasted all t e time possible by
securing the yeas and nays. It takes about
forty minutes to call them. The motion
was lost. Oa.es, however, voted yoa with
a view of moving a reconsideration. Ho
had bitten off more than he could chew.
The speaker ruled his motion out, basing
tbe ruling upon the decision of the chair on
a point of order made during the second
'session of the Forty-fifth congress. He de
clared the reconsideration of a vote on ad
journment out of order, because a motion
to adjourn cau be repeated
again aud again after other
business has mterveued. The question next
came on the 4:30 amendment of Mr. Breck
inridge. Gen Oates moved to table it.
The speaker said that a motion to table an
amendment was not in order. Mr. Taulbee
then moved to table Gen. Oate3’ motion
for a 5 o’clock recess and all the pending
amendments. The speaker replied that it
was not in order to lay either a motion to
adjourn or a motion for a recess upon the
table. The full parliamentary mill was
then applied to the Breckinridge amend
ment. The yeas and nays panned out 3to
177. This left the situation thus:
1. Oates' motion for a recess until 5 p. m.
2. Weaver's 4 o'clock amendment.
Tho tangle grew worse under these com
plications:
3. Amendment to Wever's 4 o’clock amend
meet miking the time 10 a. m. Offered by Ezra
Taylor, who demanded the previous question.
4. Motion vo adjourn, by Mr. Breckinridge
5. Motion that when the House adjourns it be
to meet on Friday, by Gen. Oates.
G. Amendment to strike out'Triday" and in
sert ‘‘Saturday.”
The latter was offered by Mr. Beck
inridge. He at first moved to amend by
making it "Friday at 10 o’clock.” The
speaker ruled this out of order, because it
involved a change of tbe rules. Tne House
might take a recess until 10 o’clock but it
could not adjourn until that hour. Gen.
Bayne unde a point of order against motion
5 in the list afc>ve. He said that the mo
tion to adjourn had the priority. Mr. Car
lile replied that a motion to fix a day took
the lead over a motion to adjourn or take a
recess, ihe sixth, fifth, and fourth motions
in the list wer.t to grass. Fully two hours
were spent in roll calls, tbe yeas and nays
being drawn out on each. This left the
list thus:
1. Oates' motion for a recess until 5. p. m.
2. We iver'i amendment until 4 pji.
3. Taylor's amendment to ameMEent until
10 a. m.
Gen. Weaver then moved that when the
House adjourns it adjourn to ipeet on Mon
day. As the motion was made on YYedues
needay, Mr. Taulbee raised the point of or
der that neither House could adjourn for
rqore than three legislative days without
the sanction of the other. Tbe speaker
said that, it was exactly three legislative
days—Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Mr.
Taulbee replied that "if the House adJcurua
to meet again to-morrow, that is one day.
If we a 1 joum to meet on Friday, thut is
two days, and if o i Saturday, that is three
days.” Tho chair ruled the motion out of
order for a different reason, thus:
The last vote preceding the one just taken was
on a motion to adjourn over uotil Friday It
ha* been decided, and in the practice o? the
H use. thst although the motion to adjourn
over may be repeated, some intervening busi
ness must nave taken place before the motion
can attain ho in order, and it has baen held that
a motion to adjourn is not such intervening
business.
Gen. Wearer then wanted a reertw tatil
8 o’clock p. m. T e Speaker reminded mm
that there wes a motiou for a recess pealing
(see 1 on the list), and two amendment* to
it, which were the limit of amendment* in
that direction. This brought up the Ezra
Taylor 10 o’clock a. m. amendment.
It began to look as though the filibusters
were losing ground. On introducing his
amendment, Taylor had dema* deu the
previous question. This was appareuJy a
waste of time. He now saw his mistake
aud withdrew his demand. Mr. McMiUiu
renewed it. Tho na<B. Heed protested, on
the ground that the only object of tbepre
v.ou> question is to limit debate, a**d de
viate was already limited by the rule, of
the House on this question. If there can be
no detMite, how can there be a previous
question f
"That may be a good reason why the
House should refuse to order the previ
ous question,” replied the speaker, but
the motiou for the previous question b in
order.”
Ue added that if ordered now it would
operate upon tho whole series of motions,
first upon the pending amendments and
then upon Gen. Oat * original uioti >n (or a
recast. (£ ** lon the list). This startled
Mr. lftcMillin. He quickly withdrew the
demand. Mr. Heed promptly renewfj it.
Tlier upon Mr. Breckinridge began to tie a
sailor's knot. He moved that Mr. McMillin
be excused from voting on tbe pe.i ling
quee ion. The knot at first slipped. Tom
He-d withdrew hi* demaud for the previ
ous question, and the question fell ba< ko i
Taylor’s 10 a. in. amendment. The |s* iker
wish about to put it, when Mr. Breckinridge
rnmm iMI him that he bad arisen to a t nv
lieged motion. "The gentleman from Ar
kai.eas," replied Mr. 7*arJUle, "aak*d that
lb * gentleman be excused from vatina* on
the landing question, which na fiius I*eu
withdrawn.”
He referred to Tom Reed’s action. The
yeas and nays were ordered on Taylor’s
amendment. Before they were taken
Breckinridge renewed his motion to excuse
Mr. McMiiliti. Tr.e knot caught and defied
all attempts to untie it. The motion was
put aud tellers were appointed on tho point
of no quorum before the friends of the
measure recovered from their astonishment.
Then Mr. Caswell inquired whether Mr. B.’s
motion was privileged.
“No,” replied the speaker. “It inter
venes now because the rule directa that a
member shall vote on each question put un
less be is excused by the House, and it is
also provided that the motion to excuse him
shall be made before division or the com
mencement of a roll call.”
On tne point of order made by Mr. Bur
rows, Mr. Carisle acknowledged that under
the rules the motion would not be in order
pending a motion to adjourn or to adiourn
over, nor after tbe main question is ordered,
nor pending tbe demand for the previous
question. The rules specifically excepted
those cases, and no others. The pending
question here was not to adjourn, but to
lake a recess. Mr. Burrows reminded him
that the admission of these motions indefin
itely might prevent the House from taking
a recess. The speako.- replied that they did
not prevent tne house from adjourniug,
thereby terminating its session. As it was,
the point of order was made too late, be
cause the House was actually voting upon
the question when it was raised. Tom Reed
insisted that the application for an excuse
ought to come from the gentleman who
sought to be excused, but the speaker de
cided that, when made, it was a proper par
liamentary moiion, and he supposed that a
gentleman could make any proper parlia
mentary motion he desired.
After much discussion and more confus
ion, Mr. Sowden appealed from the decision
of the chair. The question was put, and a
division ordered. Gov. McCreary secured
the yeas an J nays, and the clerk was about
to call the roll, when Mr. Cannon of Ill
inois dumfoUDded the speaker by moving
that Mr. McMilliu be excused from voting
on tbe appeal.
A division was demanded. The speaker
saw the dilemma. The house was rapidly
drifting in the anomalous situation of hav
iug two sets of tellers upon the floor at
once in the ascertainment of a quorum upon
different questions. Mr. McMiilin came to
the rescue. He said he had not sought to be
reliev3d by the interposition of tne gentle
man from Illinois. Tom Reed seemed to
enjoy the snarl caused by the overruling of
his point of order. Mr. Carlisle said that he
had no feeling in the matter. He simply
desired the House to give its best judgment
on tbe question, without regard to any decis
ion of the chair. Then he rather npoeal
ingly asked Mr. Breckinridge whether he
insisted upon his motion to excu-.e the gen
tleman from Tennessee.
“No, I do not,” was the prompt reply.
Gov. Long then diagnosed the parliamen
tary ntatus. He said that two points of
order were pending. “One is, the motion
to excuse is not in order and the second is
that one member has not the right to move
another member shall be excused. The
chair has overruled both points.” He
wanted a division of the question on Mr.
Bowden’s appeal. Mr. Carlisle said that if
tbe appeal was withdrawn he could submit
to the House whether it was competent for
one member to move to excuse another
from voting on a motion for a recess. Mr.
Sowden withdrew his appeal. Here Mr.
Breckinridge settled the whole matter by
withdrawing his motion to excuse Mr.
McMiilin from voting. There was some
question as to the precedent established by
the speaker’s action. Mr. Randa'l said that
the chair had decided nothing except that
the mere motion of Mr. Breckinridge was
in order. Business then proceeded as fol
lows:
1. The Taylor 10 a. m. amendment.
2. A motion to adjourn.
3. A motion to adjourn till Monday.
4. Amendment to Friday.
5. Amendment to the amendment to Satur
day.
6. No quorum voting on motion 5.
7. A motioifcfor a call of the House.
8. A motion to adjourn (lost).”
9. A call of the House ordered.
10. Quorum obtained, and a motion to dis
pense with further proceedings under call car
ried.
11. A motion to reconsider No. 10 lost.
12. A motion to adiourn lost.
13. A second call of the House ordered.
14. A motion to adjourn lost.
15. A recess taken at 2:27 a. m. to 11:45 a. ra.
Day after day was lost in similar motions,
until the legislative day of Wednesday
lasted nearl y a week, when a compromise
tv at effected upon a three days’ discussion of
the bill. At the end of the three days a
vote was taken and the bill was passed.

HOW DIMES ARB MADB.
A Description of the Processes Neces
sary to Complete tbe Little Coin.
From the Lewiston (Me.) Journal.
The United States mint in San Francisco
is said to be the largest of the kind in the
world. Just at present there is a lively de
mand for silver dimes, and two of the money
presses have been running exclusively on
this coin. The demand is so great that these
machines are no even stopping on Sunday.
The process of dime-making is an interest
ing one. Tbe silver bullion is first
melted and run into two-pound bars.
These in turn are run through
immense rollers and flattened out to the
thickness of the coin. These siirer strips
are then passed through a machine, which
cuts them into proper size for the presses,
the strips first having been treated with a
kind of tallow to prevent their being
scratched in their passage through the cut
ters. The eilver pieces are th*n put into
the feeder of the printing presses and are
fed to the die by automatic machinery at
the rate of 100 ;>or minute, 48,000 dimes be
ing turned out in a regular working day of
twelve hours.
As the smooth pie<*es are pressed between
the ponderous printing dies, they receive
the lettered and figured impression in a
manner similar to that of a paper presssed
upon a form of type; at the same time the
piece is expanded in a slight degree, and the
small corrugations are cut in its rim. The
machine drops tbe completed coin into a
receiver, and it is ready for the counter’s
The instrument used by tho
counter is not a complicated machine by
any means as o.se might suppose. It is a
simple copper-colored tray, having raised
edges running across the surface at a dis
tance about the exact width of a dime.
From the receiver the money is dumped on
the board or tray, and as it is shaken
rapidly by the counter the pieces settle
down into the spoce between the ridges.
All these spaces being filled, the surplus
coin is brushed back into the receiver, anil
the counter has exactly 1,250 silver dime?,
or $125 on the tray, whicu number it re
quires to fll l ths spaces. Thi tray is then
emptied into the boxes and the money is
ready for shipment. Tho dime doe* not pass
tarough the baud sof the weigher as doas the
coin of a larger denomination. One and
one-half grains aro allowed for variation or
“tolerance” in all silver coins from a dollar
down, and the deviation from the sta (lard
in the case of the 10 cent pieces is so trifling
that the trouble and expense of weighing
the coin of this denomination is dispensed
with
