NEW YORK.



New YORK, Feb. 9.-George S. ScovilIe,
Guiteaus brother in-law and lawyer, was in
this city to-day on business connected with
the argument to be made in Guiteau's behalf
before the court in 6anc in March. Mr.. Sco-
vile goes hence to Chicago, where he expects
to finish the accumulation of material for his
forthcoming argument. He will again stop
in New York on his return to Washington.
When questioned as to the truth of the re-
ports that solitary confinement has broken
Guiteau's spirit, and that barred of the &C.
customed publicity for his speeches and writ
ings he has fallen into sullen and melan-
choly temper, Mr.. Scoville said "Such
reports are exaggerated as reports of that ma
ture are apt to be. OF course solitary con-
fnement is not calculated to make any man
abnormally bright. But it has not yet had
the effect upon this prisoner which has been
alleged. The last time, however, that I saw
Guiteau was last Saturday and he was then
just the same as he had been all along during
the trial, no brighter and no duller. I have
not been informed that he has changed since
then" Mr.. Scoville has managed during his
presence in this neighborhood to keep en-
tirely clear of reporters, and to make assur-
ance doubly sure has lodged in jersey City
to avoid newspaper men and detectives.

about Corea than about Loo Choo, and it

Justin McCarthy's amendment to the Queens
address proposing the immediate abandon
ment of coercion measures in Ireland. Mr..
Forster, chief secretary for Ireland, in
speech justified the course the government
had pursued, and said that coercion meas
ures were necessary for the suppression OF
the Land Leagne, which as society had
paralyzed law, made industry impossible and
liberty noH-potent. The House then ad-

A Boys Death From Hydrophobia.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 9.-Charles Hensey,
aged fourteen years, died at the residence of
his parents in West Philadelphia last evening
from hydrophobia. One day about month
ago he remained at the store where he was
employed at noon and went out in the yard,
with piece of meat in his hand, and began
to play with coach dog. The animal
snatched for the meat, but caught one of the
boys fingers in his mouth, tearing away the
flesh and inficting painful wound. The
boy was taken to a physician, where the
wound was cauterized, and the dog was kill
ed. The wound healed up, but few days
ago the boy was taken sick. His illness be-
came violent yesterday morning, and rapid
commissions continued during the day until
death ensued.

came up under the regular call of the calendar
Messrs. Plumb and Sherman protested against sucI
action being unjust to regular army officers anG
establishing dangerous precedent.
Mr. Plumb then addressed the Senate IN support o.
Mr. Ingalls, resolution against the repeal of the
rears of pension act.
Mr. Harrison also spoke in favor of the principle OF
the pensions act, claiming that it appealed to the
judgment and sense of justice OF every man. In
der to avoidthe frauds claimed to exist he approved
the recommendation of the commissioner of pensions
that four hundred special agents be appointed to in
vestigate claims
Mr.. Brown urged that it would be unjust to repeal
or to suspend the operations of the act.
Mr.. Beck pointed out that several Senators were
veterans of the Mexican war and it was not right that
they should come in for pensions under one of the
amendments proposed.
Mr.. Maxey said needy soldiers of that war ought
not to be deprived justice because some few of the
survivors happened to be rich.
At O'Clock eulogies to the memory OF the late
Representative O'Connor pronounced by Messrs.

with instructions to formulate bill under the

the golden number. Ha believed the House too large
now rather than too small Since the committee and
the House had indicated however, that it would not
accept 307 he willing to accept the number pro-
posed by Mr.. Colerick SIG. refused to permit

relation to certain statements made by wit

testimony being simply an explanation of
certain minor matters.
The Naval committee have not yet made
their report to the Senate on the nomination
of Watmough for paymaster general of the
navy, but are holding the subject in abey-
ance in anticipation of the probable with
drawal of the nomination. Should it not be
withdrawn an unfavorable report will soon
be submitted.

Interests so vast, and so necessarily and
vitality bound pin the prosperity of the people,
can only be dealt with with the utmost caution
and upon the fullest information. Thopower
of congress over the whole subject can hardly
be questioned. The supreme court of Illinois
comedies it, and the decisions of the supreme
court of the United States seem to render it
indisputable. The universal use and absoluCe
dependence of all interstate commerce upon
railroads give constant rise to new questions
under new conditions which only experience
can properly solve. 1t would seem that true
wisdom would hasten slowly in dealing with
this great problem, seeking the fullest infor-
nation as the only true basis for wise ilegisla-
ton. The solution must lie in the just appl-
cation of the laws of trade and commerce,
with such authoritative regulation by law as
will hold abuses in check, and tbis power can
be derived only from federal law of universal
application. | have felt it to he my duty to
call attention to this subject, although l have
not thought it appropriate to discuss the ques-
tion in detail
81 therefore respectfully recommend that n
commission be appointed to take into con-
sideration the whole question, and report to
| congress the facts necessary for intelligent
and efficient action upon the subject"
The commissioner next speaks of the un-
necessary and dangerous dissimilarity of rail
way signals, and recommends the adoption OF
uniform system, and this subject occupies
the remainder of the report, which concludes
with communication of the general efficiency
of the employees in the office.
