WASHINGTON, May 22.-There is de-
cided disposition on the Republican
side Of the House to prevent the con-
sideration of any general legislation
after the disposal Of the Warner bill,
and prominent members of the parry
said to-day that there was no doubt but
that the Republicans would follow this
course if an attempt should be made to
take up any Of the various other meas
ures which have been reported by the
committees this session, other than
those making appropriations for the
army and executive branches of the
government. To accomplish this, the
Republicans will have to refrain from
voting, which will leave the House
without quorum.

More About that Bellaire Shooting Scrape.
From the independent
Last night shortly after o'clock,
Officer Mccormack noticed a man named
McNiccc, who lives in Meade township,
drunk. lie told McNicCe 10 20 home,
but this he refused to do. His step son,
Casper Paul, was near, and the officer
told him 10 take his step-father home or
he would be obliged 20 arrest him.
Paul refused, and insisted that the old
man be left alone. Mccormack then
took the old man and started with
him towards the lookup. When
between McrCer's drug store and the
lookup, Paul stepped close up to the
officer and shot him, the ball taking
effect i'm the head, behind, and little
below the right ear. Mccormack was
carried into DIR. kurz's office and an eX-
animation made, but the ball was not
found. and he was taken 10 his home,
where DR.. Kurz, assisted by DIR. Wood
bridge. after some cutting found the
ball. Ii had passed upward and for
ward on the outside OF the skull, and
was found about two inches from the
place of entrance.
The wound, fortunately, is not a dan
gerous one, and we hope TO see Mr.. Nc
Cormack soon on duty again. After Me
mack fell. Paul ran 10 the alley west Of
Gorby's store, thence north near the gas
office. closely pursued by Officer Rowles,
who was unarmed. At the gas office he
thought 10 elude the officer by dOging
into an open shed, but ROwles saw him
A.. - n BFn
The revolver, medium sized one, con-
tanning the cartridges, was found on his
person. He was safely landed in the
lookup, and will have hearing to-day
ON the charge Of shooting with intent
% kill In the excitement McNlece
escaped. but was found soon after
in Bralen's stable. This shoot
ing. SO far as we can learn, was
wholly without excuse, and without
doubt with intent 90 kill. Paul has been
heretofore. so far as We know, a civil
Young man and not inclined To quarrel.
Ills father was killed some years ago by
Gary and Emery, at West Wheeling.
The man McNieCe Is married 10 Paul ;

of drinking too much when IN town.
lie is now running a mill on Ilpe
Creek. Ii is said that he told Paul to
shoot the officer Paul then asked some
of the bystanders to assist him, and
upon their refusal ne fired the first shot
that will no doubt send him to the pen
iteutiarv for some years. Soon after ms
arrest his wife appeared and asked the
Mayor to let him out and she would pay
tine fine, evidently thinking It slight
Otfense.
