Afternoon Session.

The House met promptly and resumed
the consideration Of the Health Bill. the
question being on the motion of Mr.. Quar-
rier to strike out the words "who shall be
a graduate Of some reputable medical col
lege."
Mr.. Wilson, (Mr. Fulkerson in the chair
hoped that the amendment would prevail.
He thought that il would be better to use
the words eminent in his profession"
AS the bill now stood the Governor was
not permitted to recognize any man, no
matter how eminent, how able or how eX-
perienced, unless he should be graduate.
He did not oppose collegiate educations,
but at the same time the man who worked
himself up by dint of his own industry
and native intellect was worthy of all the
honors and positions. Limiting the in
cumbents to collegiate graduates, was un-
democratic, and unjust, and he was
Sick and Tired
of having such limiting and prescribing
for those who had not the advantages of an
early education. As matter OF fact, the
leading lights in every branch of science and
arts had grown mp through trouble and
labor. Twelve Years practice wa. qualifica-
tion enough for all purposes. 1t was more
than was required from any other profess
ion, and this amendment would simply
allow the Governor to look over the whole
State, and select the best man for the po-
sition.
Mr.. Steere said the gentleman had led
the House long chase yet he thought he
hsd failed TO touch the point He had read
BeautifuI Sermon,
and mentioned the leading lights OF all
PROFESSIONS except those vi medicine. BIT

NEW YORK.
Condition OF the stock Market-Look.
ing for Rise.

NEW YORK, February l3.-The bull lead
ers promise an advancing market this
week. They do not look for rapid rise,
but anticipate a steady gain in prices.
They say the market was made weak Sat.
urday for the encouragement OF the short
interest, and for the purpose Of allowing
certain operator to increase his holdings.
The short interest is believed to be larger
than indicated by the borrowing demand.
Some of the great operators are loaning
stock very freely with special reference TO
the short interest. Room traders were
very bearish Saturday afternoon.
The late decline in Tennessee bonds Is
having an unfavorable effect upon other
Southern securities.
The Hannibal and st. Joseph Company,
will, it is said, endeavor to recover the
three million paid some time ago into the
Missouri State treasury.
A private dispatch from Paris, Saturday.
said failures were occurring in all parts Of
the country and the markets would be nee.
essarily depressed for at least sixty days.
Parties supposed to have early informa.
ton upon Gould stocks are buying Wabash
common and preferred.
Northwest common Is one OF tho favorites
for rise. The company is earning four
teen per cent on its stock.

wheat and Grain Calls.

San FRANCISCO, CAL, February II, 1881
The Merchants Exchangejhnnounces that
on Monday ii will commence the call OF
wheat and other produce, bonds, miscella.
neous stock. and any other property, with
the exception Of mining stocks, which will
be rigidly excluded. The call will be open
to all comers The announcement has
taken the community by surpise, ~ no
previous intimation OF such intention had
been given. The natural inference WAS
that IL was intended TO head off wheat call
Of the Produce Exchange, which will be
shortly commenced, but the President OF
the Merchants Exchange informs reporters
that the latter was under consideration by
them before IL was broached in the Pro.
duce Exchange, and that no opposition Is
intended.

The ~. Louis Contribution.

ST. LOUIS, February l3.-George Voyce,
foreman of gang OF men excayating for
the foundation for the new rolling mill, in
the southern part of East st. Louis, had
trouble with Michael Cooney, one of his
laborers, this evening, about some money
which the latter claimed due him. Cooney
was very drunk and abusive, but Voyce
paid no attention to him, saying the man
was too drunk to be responsible for what
he said. Finally Cooney made motion as
if to draw a pistol, when Voyce picked up
q stick and hit him blow on the left side
Cooney fell to the ground and died in about
two hours. Voyce surrendered himself.

Them-Morc RascaIity.

DETROIT, MICH, February 1S.-There are
some new developments in the Ardian
bond matter, tonight. Alderman Fred A.
Clark, President Of the Council and Acting
Mayor in the absence of the fugacious
Navvin, was arrested this morning, charged
with completely in the swindling, he hay
ing been in company with Navin in New
York, as he alleged, when the bogus bonds
were negotiated. 1t is believed here, not
withstandng statements from New York,
that Nayin obtained $31, 600 of New York
parties with whom he negotiated the bonds,
the belief being, strengthened by the
activity displayed BY New York parties to
find some property on which to levy. 1t
was discovered, to-day, that Navin had Sc
cured an old mans signature to two deeds
to property worth several thousand dollars
on Representations that they were leases
and deeds running to himself and that he
had mortgage on the property for all it
would carry. He had done considerable
business for the old man before, so that he
readily deceived him. Every day reveals
some new phase Of Navin's rascality.

raj, although confirmed without extended
debate, gave rise to considerable criticism
on the ground that it provided for placing
an officer 20 years Of age in a position
which has Just been made vacant by reason
of Gen. Meigs having attained the age of

that Col. Fuckers long and faithful service
both in the line and staff OF the army, and
the fact that he stood next to Gen. Meigs

cording TO Saturdays announcement, the
call opened at Merchants Exchange, to-
day, a large crowd was present, but no
business was transacted. The prospect
seems TO need further systemitising before
il can be effective. Many are disposed TO
regard the call as farce that will have
a short run, while others believe that with
some improvement in the details, IL will
become q recognized feature OF business.
During the past few days rain, in various
