SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE WORCESTER spY.l

WASHINGTON, D, c., June 10.
THE sUNDRY APPROPRIATION BILL PASSED
WITH STRUGGLE.
The day has been an exciting one in the
house. The conference committee excited in
dighation among the democrats aud some re-
publicans agreed with them IN the condcmna-
ton of the conduct of the house conicrees. The
motion and speech of Mr. Kelley of Pennsylya-
MIA for a new conference startled the house, for
he is one of the most extreme rad
icals in the house He was supported by a
large majority twice, which showed that the
house was very anxious for final adjournment
without an extra session, and that it condemned
the attempt of the senate TO connect the elec-
tions bill with a great appropriation bill in
square issue. AT any time, the enforcement bill
standing by itself would have passed. The
scene between Bingham and his colleague, Nor
gan, was disgraceful. The latter, as Mr.. Dawes
suggested to the speaker, deserved TO be placed
under arrest for his violence; but the provocaton
was great. Bingham had no excuse for pronounc-
ing iilibustering to be revolutionary and treason
able, for the rules of the house provide explicit
ly Tor it, and it is curious fact that in less
than half an hour after Bingham took his seat
a number of his own party E,ends were engaged
in fbustering to prevent an extension of the
session. twill be hard to convince the country
that what is dishonorable in democrats is right
in republicans. What is needed is a change in
the rules which will not permit ilibustcrng
after reasonable debate has been allowed.
After large majority in both houses had
given up all hopes of an arrangement by which
the bill could be saved, at about four O'Clock it
was suddenly announced that compromise had
been agreed to by the conference committee by
which the democrats of the house would allow
direct vote upon it, and thus the bill might be
saved.
The main concession of the senate was that
the inspectors of elections under the act, should
not have the power to make any arrests; that
they should merely inspect and report upon the
conduct of elections. This was a great conces.
sion, and the democratic leaders generally agreed
that they would not flibustcr to defeat the bill
with such modification. few, however.
under the lead of Mr.. Eldridge of Wisconsin.
attempted TO continue the effort to defeat all
action on the bill but failed and the bill passed
by about the usual party vote. 1t has already
been signed by the president and is a law.

While the house was in recess Mrs Dr. Walker
entered the hall and going to the clerks desk
commenced TO make u speech in advocacy of her
bill for the payment of nurses during the war.
One of the dOOrkeepers informed her that she
could not speak there, when she mounted the
speaker chair and proceeded TO harangue the
house from that point. The doorkeeper again
tried to make her quiet, and finally she was es
corted out of the hall, protesting all the while
that those who moved her out of the hall would
one day regret their conduct The few members
in the hall seemed to enjoy the fun and told her
to continue her remarks.
NOMINATIONS CONFIRMED.
The senate to-day confirmed the following
nominations: Thomas b. Van Buren, of New
Jersey, commissioner to the inter national expos-
ton at Vienna; Julius A. Spilton, of Louisiana,
consul-general at the city of Mexico; collector Of
internal revenue, Adm Thayer, of the eighth

consuls Charles Morand Dcnia, Spain; ]. Nj,

New YORK, June 10-A special to the Herald
from London, 9th says that, on Thursday, Gen.
Sickles, minister TO Spain, submitted to the
Spanish minister a formal and percmptory de-
mand for the release of DIR. Emile Houard from
the sentence of the court martial. The commu-
nication Of Minister Sckles is an elaborate doc

ing the demand, Mr. SiCklcs conveyed to the
Spanish government the desire of the,president
that there should be no delay, but that the sub

Bems, the well known superintendent of the

with the hospital for nearly twenty -four years,
and has managed the affairs of the Institution

FANDALIsM.-lt is a matter to be regretted
that, in city like Worcester, such vandalism is
allowed as can readily be seen by passer at
tie cemetery in the eastern part of the city
known as "Pine Meadow" For some time
past it has been notorious fact that the monu-
nents and head stones only afforded targets to
the young men and boys who had great de-
sire TO practice at stone throwing This has
been carried to such an extent that nearly every
stone IN the enclosure has suffered to some ex-
tent, and many of them have been mutated
beyond identification. Not content with this,
the people in the vicinity have this year taken
the enclosure for ball ground and pasture, Sun
day being the day on which it is used for base
ball, and the rest of the week as Il pasture
for goats, hogs and chickens, and playground
for the children. The rascals not content with
destroying everything within their reach, have
sacriligiously broken open the tombs, which
now present CHASTITY spectacle. In one Of them
there are eight or nine cofiins, every one of
which has been broken open with stones, which
contain the remains of some one who was I'M
