THE RESUMPTION REPEAL BILL
OPPORTUNITY FOR AN UNLIMITED NUMBER OF
AMENDMENTs-THE DEBATE OPENED.

AMENDMENTs-THE DEBATE OPENED.
LBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRrBUsEJ
WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.-The fate of General
Ewings bill for the repeal Of the third section OF the
Resumption Act. was by no means determined by
the overwhelming vote of yesterday on giving it
standing in the House. Mr.. Sayler, Acting Speaker
to-day decided that the resolution passed by tho
House yesterday under a suspension Of the rules,
makes it in order for any member TO offer an amend
ment 10 the bill, and that all amendments so
presented must be voted upon the order in which
they are submitted. This will give every Repre-
sentative opportunity, during the next five days,
to submit his views on the Resumption Act, in the
form of an amendment, and to test the sense of the
House upon it. Several such amendments were pre-
scented to-day and will De printed in TIE Record to-
morrow morning. The debate on tho bill began
late this afternoon. Mr.. Phillips, of Kansas MEM
Der of the Committee Banking and Currency,
took the floor for set speech. The most of the
talk to which the House VIII be compelled TO listen
for the next five days will probably attract little
attention. few members. who hayo given the
subject careful steady may be able to present views
chat are novel, and to throw some light upon tho
present condition Of business but most of the
speeches will be delivered for home consumption,
and viii not attract much attention here in Wash
ingtOn.

Flax is a crop remarkably free from insect
depredations. 1t is said the chinch bug
will neither eat it nor pass through 1t: and

be exempt from the pest. We have seen the
the statement several times that flax sown

the attacks of the Colorado beetle, but have
no exact knowledge on this point. If it be
tried and fail, there will be but the trouble
of removing the fax. Hand picking Of the
beetles while yet the crop is young, follow
ed by knocking the beetles from the vines
with a whisk broom, or a folded newspaper
into tin pans. and destroying them; this
with the use of Paris green for thei !arya

STRANGE AND FATAL ACCIDENT, AT THE
AUsABLE CHAsN.-Last Tuesday evening,
Alonz9 Baker and James Ricketson started
out to fish Down the Aussble river, below
the Chasm. They fished until some time
after midnight and started for home. but as
the night was dark, and the woods about
them thick, they lost their way. They wan
dered about for some time vainly endeavor-
ing to End the road. feeling their wav along
cautiously and holding each other BY the
hand. Finally Baker said he knew where
be was, and would go ahead and lead the
way out. lie had advanced but a few steps,
Ricketson following. when the latter heard
rustling sound, and all was still Rick
etson called several times to his companion,
but receiving no answer, he got down on his
hands and knees, crawied back in an oppo-
site direction, and finally found the road and
his way out. just as it was growing light.
He told his story to the first parties be met
and accompanied by them returned to the
scene of his adventures. in search Of
Baker. His dead body was soon found
at the foot of a precipice seventy five
feet high. lie had made a miss.ep
in the dark, and plunged over without
word or cry. lie had evidently struck on
his HANDS and knees, as they were terribly
mangler, and received bruises in the face.
lie had struck on smooth rock sloping to
the river. and the body had bounded for
ward and lay partly submerged in the water.
Baker vas well acquain ted with ali the III
tricacies of the Chasm having worked there
for years as guide to pleasure parties.
