The New York sun thinks the fires
in the Navy Department "suspicious,"
and remarks: sImportant records
have mystcriously disappeared from
the files of the War Department, and
only Il few weeks ago all the papers in
a venal contract, including Il letter
from the President in its favor, were
removed from the files of several offices
in the Treasury at :thc same time,
thus proving common motive and
concert of action in this abStraction.''

In Congress, on the Ind, after an
exciting debate in which the Speaker
took part as II member of the House, Il
new rule was adopted by a vote of III
to 81, which forbids diiatory motions
on any question except propositions to
appropriate money, credit or other pro-
perty of the United States, but provides
that the previous question shall not be
seconded on the first day that Il bill is
under consideration, except by II two
thirds vote.
The purpose of this new rule is to
prevent the Democrats from tillibustcr-
to force an extra session of Congress.
