W.euJyGTov. Feb. 26.-The House Committee
on Elections again devoted some time to consider
alton of tho Donnelly- y-Wsshburn case to-day.
The occasion was improved by Nr. Manning OF
Mississippi, who made an argument In behalf oi
Mr. Donnelly. 1t IS understood that Mr. Manning
attacked the validity of the "nnmbercd" ballots
n, the ground, not that they were unlawful or ur(-
lawfully cast. bl. that the numbering was scheme
TO "intimdate " voters who were workngncn.
Probably there is nothing else in the world which
Mississippi Democratic Congressman repr0bates
quite so strongly he does intimidation Of voters
SO il must be supposed that Mr.. Mannings argn'
ment on this point was strong and eloquent.
Mr. Manning. it is said, also advanced the prOpo
sitiOn that if the numbered ballots are counted
those which were not numbered must he thrown
o1,t now II must be remembered that neither Mr.
Donnelly Mr.. Manning, nor anybody else has. ever
dared 10 pretend that all the ballots, numbered as
well as unnumbercd, were not really cast by legal
voters and were not honestly counted.

TIGATION CONTINUED.
fBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE)
Wtsu1xGToN Feb 2G.-Late this afternoon after
a long and somewhat bitter discussion, the House
nassed n substitute for the Star Route Deficiency
hill which was reported by the Appropriations Com
mittee yesterday.
The measure as passed, appTopriateS Sl,O7O.OOO
or a little more than one-half of the amount asked
for by the Post Office Department. This saving Is
Effected not by reducing the frequency of the mails
on any route, but by returning to the old schedules
MS to time. A large part of the additional expense
has been always incurred by expeditng The carriage
of tine mails. As Mr.. Haskell showed to-day, TINS
is no new thing.
Mr. Haskell read a statement showing how the
contract prices had been raised during Mr.. Bu-
chanan's administration some of the same
routes now complained of. According to this state
msnt the extravaganza" of the present time is
the stingiest kind of economy as compared with
those palmy days of Democratic rule, when II was
NOT Uncommon TO raise the contractors pay from
5000 to s. 900 mile.
Mr. Hester ClymeT, OF Pennsylvania, whose
lachrymose exhibition in the Belknap impeach-
lnent case viii not be forgotten, came to the
front again to-day and denounced Assistant Post
master-General Brady in very strong terms. lie
characterized General Brady as wilful vioator OF
law. who should be made to suffer Ike any other
malefactor and he intmated that some terrible
punishment is in store for that gentleman at the
hands of the Democrats.
Mr.. ConCer replied to Mr.. Clymer's rather foolish
attempt TO make Democratic political capital out Of
matter in which Republicans have been as active
as anybody. Mr.. Conger reminded the House that
Mr. Clymer was irving to rehearse his old BelEnap
scenes. "The tears the tremuous tones and all
The scenery are here but they are not new said the
Michigan Representative.
Mr. B,ouni of Georgia is the member of the AP-
propriatiOns Committee who reported the bill which
cuts down the mail service only IN the western
States aud Territories. He has been very active in
pressing the measure. In the course OF the debate
To-day Mr. Page. of California, took occasion to
show up the disinterested character Of Mr.. Bount.
I appears that in the Georgia district represented
bv Mr Blount the mail service has been increased
on nineteen routes within the last year.
The Appropriations Committee is TO continue lts
Investigation Of the administration Of the Star
Route Service that in course Of time the country
NAV know whether there is any good reason why
the people OF the Territories should be deprived Of
expeditions and regular mail communication with
the outside world.

AT first, the life-ssvers were q little discon-

his prayerful appeal, and as il was echoed
on the water, they began turning their at

"That is bel Save himl Save, save, OH save

Others were neglected. The noisy man
skipped like sn antelope from the bluff, and,
with his voice choked with emotion, OK

"He owes me fifty cents" said the man from
