longing to delinquent lies under the rule at reg

amount TO over 25OO 900 shares. The Commercial Ad-
vertlser says the incpal party in the movement in
Rock Island is VIM S. Woodward of Brooklyn, who
for several days has been engaged in getting up a
corner" in the stock, and succeeded in squeezing
some parties very effectuay but his efforts to ruin
others has been to "hoist them by his own petard"-
He said his own operations yesterday amounted to
over 100000 shares of Rock Island besides giving Or
dels to several concerns to buy him. 1t is report
ed that he settled with some OF the .'shorts" last
night at the 9th Avenue Hotel on tho basis of 14O

stock opened heavy at 1870, declining rapidly, and in
less than an hour touched 40. 1t was soon ascer-
tained that Woodward decl to accept stock which
he purchased yesterday, and could not meet his en-
gagements. Brokers whom he employed to purchase
for him of course fell back upon him, and finding
their principal overheard had to take the same ster
themselves. One operator sold out his Rock Island
to be delivered to day at profit of $50 OOO but the
parties to whom he sold failed to meet their engage

The remainder of the stock list stood well against
the decline in Rock Island, though the full CLIQUE

WASHINGTON, January 10.
The vexed question Of the St. Domingo an
nexation was the topic ola long and excited
debate in the House of Representatives to-day.
The argument turned on Ambler's amend
ment, which was, Ia effect, that the appoint
ment Of commissioners should not comm 1t
Congress to annexation. The argument turn
ed upon the point that the amendment was
unnecessary, and that it would cause delay by
sending it back to the Senate, and also give
additional virrlence 10 the bad blood existing
there. The debate was quite bitter, Butler
and Bingham both opposing :and pleadln
against the amendment. Some sharp pas
sages occurred between Republicans, the most
angry of which was between Garfield and But
Ter. The vote was yeas LOG; nays 76.
The Joint resolution, us amended, was then
passed-yeas 123; nays 63. The Democrats
voted solidly in the negative.
