House of Representatives.

WASHINGTON, June l9.-Mr. McMahon sub
mitted the conference report upon the judicial
expenses bill. Section two prohibits the max
ing of any contract or the incurring of any liza
bility under the provision of the revised stat
utes authorizing the appointment or payment
of general or special deputy marshals for
services in connections with elections on elec-
ton day.
Mr.. Monroe, one of the conference committee
on the part of the House. explained the reason
of his opposition to the report and in answer
to Mr.. Cox, expressed his intention to vote
against it.
Mr.. Cox himself intimated he would do the
same, but for different reasons.
Mr.. Garfield opposed the report and ar
gued in favor of the position occupied by tire
Republican side on this question. The bill
went beyond making appropriations and pro-
posed to prevent the executive authority Of
the government from enforcing law. The
issue was narrowed down to this point. The
majority avoued its determination that mar
shals. deputy marshals and assistant marshals
shall not be appointed to execute the laws as
embodied in title twenty-six Of the revised
statues, and confessed that the clause in the
conference report was intended and devised for
that purpose. That made square issue

WASHINGTON, June 19.-The Senate reas-
sembled at noon and the session was opened
with prayer. "' . ~
The chair stated he was informed by the clerk
that owing to the length of the previous ses-
sion the journal was not completely made up.
He suggested, therefore, that the reading
thereof be dispensed with.
Senator Conkling-I object and insist on the
observance of the rule which provides that the
first business is the reading of the journal.
Senator Davis of West Virginia. take it.
Senator Conkling (interrupting)I object to
all debate. aa-
The chair-The reading Of the journal can
not be dispensed with except with unanimous
consent. t .s.a 4.E
Finally the clerk read the first part of the
journal, occupying fifteen minutes. The chair
then announced the reception of petitions and
memorials to be in order.
Senator Conkling-Has the journal been
read The Chair-All that has been pre-
pared. -.---
Senator Conkling demanded that the whole
of the journal be read. He referred to the
rules to show that reading the journal was the
first business in order, and that the reading
could not be disposed with unless by general
consent.
The chair announced his decision that the
business of the Senate could not be obstructed
by not reading the entire journal. The re-
mainder when prepared could be read here
after. "a
q Senator Conkling appealed from the decision,
and said that this was question of parliamen-
tary law, not a matter Of order, but of privi-
lege. The chair by his mere decision could
not dispense with rule the precedent would
be dangerous.
Senator Hereford moved to lay the appeal on
the table The vote was, yeas 33, Democrats,
and only nays Republicans, namely, Booth,
Burnside, Morrill, and Window, no quorum
voting.
The roll of Senators was called and fifty
Senators, more than quorum. answered to
their names. The question on Hereford's mo-
tion was again taken, and, previously, no
quorum voted-yeas Is, Democrats, and nays

Senator Bayard. before the vote was an
nounced, called attention to the seventeenth
rule, which provides that when Senator who
is present refuses to vote he shall be required
to assign his reasons for such refusal. The
question shall then be submitted to the Senate
whether the Senator shall be excused from vot.
ing. Senator Bayard remarked that
Senators on the, other side, al
though in their seats, had declined
TO vote. He named Senator Chandler as among
the number, and asked for the enforcement Of
the rule. The chair accordingly called on Sen

class ut Canonsburg in 1929, in class OF
thirty.iour, and afterwards graduated at
the Allegheny Theological Seminary. His
scholarship, both classical and theological,
was so thorough that he could read the
Greek, Latin or Hebrew with ilucncy. 1t
was the custom at Canonsburg in his day
for the honor man, on the honors being
awarded, to treat his classmates to ardent
spirits. This custom Mr.. Eagleson's con-
science would not allow him to follow. So
instead OF furnishing whisky he furnished
six gallons of wine for the boys. He began
his career at Upper Buffalo on June Cd,
1884, and died in 1873. In 1871 lie deliv.

COuspOndsnse Intslllgsnstr.
Having q little leasure this week your
correspondent spent few days in the
country looking around. We were very
glad to learn, and still more rejoiced TO
see, that the dry weather had not been so
disastrous as reported. tits true that for
about two weeks the weather has been
quite seasonable, but twas supposed that
vegetation would scarcely recover from
the drouth in the early part Of the spring
and during the month Of May. But
Providence Is better than oil our fear, and
there is now q good prospect for at least
an average yield. Gardens are improving
wonderfully corn, though late, Is doing
well, and wheat is excellent and almost
ready for harvesting, This last statement
will doubtless be as much Of surprise to
many Of your readers as 1t was to Us when
we learned OF the fact. We do not know
how true It is Of other localities, but in
this community the wheat crop Is better
than 1t was last year. The straw Is short,
but the wheat stands thick ON the ground
and the heads are well filed Harvest
will also be earlier. One man will begin
cutting tomorrow, and on Monday there
will be q full force in many fields gather.
ing the golden grain.
Fruit will be rather scarce; OF apples
there will not be hall crop, while pears,
plums, etc.. will tall below the average
We never count much on peaches in this
section, but out OF the usual order Of
things, there will be very fair yield this
year.
