THE ARMY BILL.

The House went into. Committee of the Whole
(Mr. Carlisle in the chair on the army appropri.
alton bill The pending, amendment was Mr..
Whytes offered yesterday, which comprised most
of the features the army reorganization bill.
Mr.. Garfield opposed Mr.. Whyte's amendment
saying to add it on to the army appropriation bill
was the most mischievous method of legislation
that could be devised.
Mr.. Ewing supported the amendment. He said
the army in It's present shape was unfit for its pur.
pose. This amendment would save 81 900 900 at
once, and would gradually save from three to four
millions.
Mr.. Fort opposed:the amendment.
Mr.. Banning (Ohio) said that when his colleague
(Mr. Garfield had been Chairman of the Commit.
tee on Appropriations he had reduced the number
of the army on the appropriation bill, and he shoe
not complain at an amendment now which re.
duced the number of officers. 1t was not too late
in the session to accomplish reorganization if it
was right, and it was right.
Mr.. Garfield asked Mr.. Whyte what was meant
by the provision that general officers shall be Sc
lected from the army.
Mr.. Whyte-Just what'it says.
Mr.. Garfield That would exclude Washington,
Mr.. Whyte-Washingto is in heaven.
Mr.. Garfeld-And Grant.

dent probably
A vote was .thentaken on Mr.. Whyte's amend
ment 1t was agreed to-yeas 1Ol, nays 81.
Mr.. Whitthorne rose to a point of order on q
section Of the appropriation bill, which provides
that every officer who has been thirty years in the
service may, on his application, be placed upon
the retired list The poiut of order was sustained
and the section stricken out.
Mr.. Hewitt IN. }, moved to amend section 1909
Of the Revised Statutes so as to expunge therefrom
the provision that the army shall be allowed 10 be
at the polls on election days ITO keep the peace,
Adopted-yess 93 nays 30.
Mr. Boone submitted an amendment for the
transfer OF the Indian Bureau to the War Depart.
ment.
Mr. Conger raised point Of order.
Mr. Garfield supported the point Of order. This
system Of tacking on legislation to appropriation
bills was making the Committee on Appropria
tions general dumping ground for other COM
mittets. The House had never done a more fatal
thing to its business than when It passed rule 100
If this amendment we're ruled in order, the House
could abolish all departments of the Government,
or break down the judiciary, or work a revolution
by vote, aud it would be in order.
Mr. Randall Speaker said that rule 100 did not
allow any legislation except such as should save
money to the people, Prior to the adoption Of that
rule, the rule had been to permit extravagances
10 be put upon appropriation bills, but no amend
ment in the direction Of economy. A Democratic
House had turned right-about.face in that respect
and the result had been saving OF between TWEEN.

HIGHWAY ROBBERY.

Rome, Ohio, February 7-John Collins living
back Of Rome fourteen miles, landed here last
night on the steamer Bonanza at l2 o'clock, and
started for home. When four miles out he was
attacked by two men, one shooting him through
the left side, the other hitting him at the same
time powerful blow in the breast with large
stone, knocking him senseless. They then robbed
him of $50. leaving him for dead in the road.
Consciousness finally returned, when he crawled
to the house of George Webb and was cared for,
but is in critical condition to-day and is not ex-
peeted to recover. There is no clew to the rob-
haru
