ouy between Mr. Butterworth who was pointing
ont with keen sarcasm, the inconsistencies dis
plaved In the Democratic amendments and
speeches, and Mr.. Randall whom Mr. Buttcrworth
described as a man chained to the tariff car OF
Pennsylvania" The description Mr.. Randall re-
sented and repelled in language rude and unparha-
mentary. Afterward Mr.. Randall remembering
that he is candidate for the Democratic Preslden-
tal nomination. made rather cute speech, de-
signed to satisfy the High Tariff Democrats OF Penn
sylvania and at the time to tickle the ear OF
the Free Trade Democrats of Kentucky and Ten
nesse. Mr.. Randall wound up his speech with
denunciation of Republican extravaganza.
Another interesting episode of the day was an I'M
promptu but very lively discussion of Civil Service
Reform in which such pure and earnest advocates
of the reform as Roswell p. Flower, S. S. Cox and
William NJ Springer pointed the finger of indignant
scorn at Republican committeeman, who call
upon oflice-holders for contributions to campaign
funds Mr. Flower declared that when he ran for
Congress he had boldly and openly stated that nc
did not intend 70 buy single vote-and aS a Inenl-
Der of the Congressional Committee he wonld never
ask any ofcehoder tor single dollar Tor p0ntlcal
purposes. While McssrS. Cox and Springer dld not
20 far as Mr. Flower, they quite as eloquent
in their denunciation of the wicked Republicans, ana
their moving appeals in behalf of the pages,
laboreIs ejc, who they say are required
TO contribute under pain of dismissal,
quite as cffectual they were sincere. MessrS
Hubbcll. Kass on and Hscock explained the kind of
invitations that are sent to office holders and de-
med that IT was ever limited intended that a
failure to contribute would subject an oflice-holder
employe to danger of removal. Mr. llubbell's re-
marks and denials were very emphatic, and they
were fully backed up by the statements of Messrs
Hiscock and Kasson All the socalled Civil Service
Reform amendments were rejected.
Mr. Thompson's income tax sections were
ruled out on point of order, greatly
to that gentleman's disgust. He " got
even" with Mr.. Camp, who was chairman OF the
Committee of the Whole, by refusing to act as teller
when requested to do so. Mr.. Vance, of North Caro-
lima, offered q proviso that the money collected
from internal taxation shall be turned over 10 the
respective States for the education of the people
a proposition which was also ruled out. There
were few amendments looking to largo reduc-
ton of the whiskey tax. but none appeared to nave
many friends Altogether the bill has passed the
Committee of the Whole with fewer changes than
anticipated. and its friends ieel well satisfied
with their work tnus !2r

THE NATIONAL HEALTH ASSOCIATION
CONSIDERING TEXAS FEVER IN

New York, Oct. lS.-The Public
says: There have been only five weeks
on record of those embraced in the first
| of the month in which the exchanges out
side of New York we're AS large as they
were in the second week of October,
1881. Hence it is not very surprising
that the returns for the second week of
October, 1882, show a decrease in com
parison. Outside Of this city, exclusive
of stock sp]eculLtions, the whole transac-
tious were remarkably large. 1t can
not be said that business is depressed
when exchanges outside of New York
! exceed $500, DOC, 900 in Il week, though
the activity may not be entirely as
healthy as when such u volume of bust
ness appers in the second week of IA
month. The evidence of extraordinary
activity is still stronger. The fact re-
mains, nevertheless, that the high tide
of business this season is not quite as
high as thai of last October. Exchanges
at sixteen cities fell below those of a
GU lCSppllhllB NNNh "a J'" "'iN JN'
everyone OF those which report au in
crease Is especially noted for its manu-
featuring. Unless We except Kansas
City, where the growth of wholesale
trade has been remarkable, substan-
italy it may be said that manufactur-
ing in nearly every branch appears TO
be doing more than ever before, while
all cities which rely upon commerce
give indication that its volume is not
as great as it was a year ago. The
general level of prices during the first
week of October was about % per
cent. lower this year than in the cor
responding week last year, so that the
volume of business measured in guam
titles transferred was as large as it was
a year ago Mt five of the cities which
report swollen exchanges. In bread.
stufrs especially this decline in prices
has been greater than the decrease in
exchanges at Chicago. st. Louis or Mil
waukee. In view of this fact the ex-
changes for last week reflect a more
satisfactory condition of business in
some respects than existed a year ago,
while the decrease volume is quite
small.
