Rise in Ice.

The northern papers note the great rise in the
price OF ice. The New York St1 says: ''The
price of ice is raised, and the ice dealers are
complaining OF probable loss even at the high
figures. Last week the Washington Market
butchers and many other large purchasers were
informed that the price, for the present at all
events, will be increased from twenty cents to
half dollar per hundred pounds. HouSekeep-
ers and other small purchasers were told that
the price for one hundred pounds hereafter Will
be one dollar. 1t had been forty cents with.
those dealers who gave this notification. In
justification of this advance the dealers say that
last year they lost money, and this year they
are obliged to bring the ice from upper New
York, Maine, Vermont, and Massachusetts,.
The Baltimore Gazette, Of to-day, says: .'The
prices of ice for the coming season have been
definitely determined upon by the dealers OF this
city. Nearly all the Ice that has been stored In
New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore for the
trade this summer has been brought from
Maine Coming from so great distance the

''The departure Of Prince Orlof, the Russian

proof that he was neither recalled nor has gone

The Deadlock in the House.

The Wrangle in the House between the pro-
tectionists and the revenue reformers, when the
House first met this morning, looked as If there
would be a truce called and that the deadlock
would be broken. Fernando Wood had offered
a resolutiondo reconsider the vote whereby the
Townshend tariff bill had been sent to the COM
mittee on the revision Of the laws. and to
send it to the committee on ways and means.
Mr.. Blackburn, Of Kentucky, who has led the
revenue reformers accepted this compromise, Sc,
and stated that all he and those who had fol-
lowed him had desired from the first, was
TO prevent the changing Of the re-
eSe Wood 20 TesoRaon Sought to
plish. Had a vote been Immediately taken the
Wood compromise would have prevailed; put
MI aook 1ne oor aaa qd aaqea n satSer ST
a peppery speech, defending his course In IN
tIoducing his bill and sending it to a free trade
This led to an 1T }5e Weod
compromise, he holding that the compromise
could only be voted upon by unanimous consent.
Then followed Wrangle; the speaker axe was pnedi
the controversy seemed to be as far off as ever.
Mr. Casey Young made speech and said the
merits Of the controversy had been discussed
three days by all the recognized statesmen OF
the House, and the matter was now more OBJ
scure than ever. He said he thought the fault
was with the rules, and he for one was In favor
OF recOmmitting the whole subject to the COM
mittee on rules and then let that committee go
to Saratoga next summer and get up set of
rules that the Speaker and House can under
stand.
THE DEADLOCK BROKEN.
Mr.. McLane, OF Maryland, after further
wrangl1ng. offered resolution reciting that
whereas the Townshend bill had been i'm
properly referred, that the House reconsider Ter
It's action in sending it to the committee
on the revision OF the laws, and that the bill be
sent to the ways and means committee, and
that the journals of Tuesday and Wednesday
should be read for the approval of the House.
The House then ordered the main question,
and Mr.. McLanes resolution was adopted, and
the dead lock was broken. The journal Of Mon
day was approved, and the House proceeded to
the reading of Tuesdays and Wednesdays
