this ground, and that if they insisted
upon their objection, he would make

ment at the foot of the list of cases
assigned for to-day, in order to give

and confusion which was started
when Mr.. Page, of California, who
was entitled to fifteen minutes for
debate, instead of consuming that
time, demanded a vote He had no
sooner declared his intention not to
speak than Mr.. Rice, of Massachu>
sets, claimed the floor to speak
against the measure, but was not
recognized by the Speaker, who
stated that he had recognized Mr..
Willis as opposed to the bill, as that
gentleman had demanded a second
on the original motion.
Mr.. Randall asked leave to have
the House to vote upon an amends
ment fixing the term of suspension
at Is years, but was met with a
storm of objections from the Repub-
ican side Messrs. Springer, of Liza
nois and Kenna, of West Virginia,
sprang to their feet demanding that
as matter of justice, Mr.. Rice, of
Massachusetts, should be permitted
to speak against the measure and
heated colIequy ensued between
Mr. Kenna and the Speaker, as to
whether Kenna had risen to parlia-
mentary inquiry and as to his right
to debate it.
Mr.. Robson, of New Jersey, also
entered into the discussion, which
was going on in an exciting manner,
and he was greeted with cries
of 'order!' from the Democratic
side.
Mr.. Kenna asserted his right to
speak, and declared that ''this chair
shall not deny me that right" to
which Mr.. Humphrey, of Wisconsin,
replied that the buster was uDneces>
sary, as there had not been any right
denied to anybody.
The Speaker finally stated that he
would listen to the gentleman from
West Virginia, but that gentleman
had proceeded no further than to
say, 'The Chair will be seated, which
l respectfully desire" when again
there were loud calls for ''Order! y
from the Republican side, while

grily exclaimed, directing his remarks
to Mr. Kenna, "Sit him down"

LA MASCOTTE REPEATED.
A Benefit for the Public Library.

A Benefit for the Public Library.
The brilliant success of La Mascctte, by
se,s of our leading home artists, Friday
night, has created unanimous demand for
a repetition of it. 1t was said by cultivated
gentlemen of this city, who saw the per-
formance, and who had seen the opera
performed by professionals, that it was as
well executed as anything they ever saw.
Indeed, we know of no professional rendi-
ton of opera on our stage that ever excelled
it. The performers have kindly consented
to repeat, next Tuesday night, for the
benefit of the Public Library, and every
who failed to hear it before, should come
out. Many of those who heard it last
Friday night have signifed their intention
of attending again, not only on account of
the object, but for the genuine enjoyment
of the music. The money realized will be
used exclusively in the purchase of new
books for the Library.

CONGRESSIONAL,
SENATE.

WASHINGTON, April 17.-George M.
Chilcott was qualified as Senator
from Colorado to succeed Henry NJ.
Teller.
The bill recently reported by Sen~
ator Kellogg from the commerce
committee for deepening canals and
improving the navigation of the Mis-
sissippi and Missouri Rivers, came
up as the regular order. The bill
provides that the work is TO be CAR
Fied on by the Secretary of War upon
plans of the Mississippi River Com
nilsson, and appropriates five mill
ion for the Mississippi River
and one million dollars for
the Missouri River. 1t prohibits
the use of any portion of the money
in the construction or repair of
levees.
An amendment to the bill intended
to beproposed by Senator Jonas, of
Louisiana, applies 20 much of the
appropriation as the Secretary of
War may deem necessary, upon the
advice of the Mississippi River COM
mission, to thesimmediate repair or
construction of such levees as will
assist in deepening the channel and
improving navigation, but not for
the purpose of preventing injuries
to lands by overflow.
An amendment prepared by
Senator Garland increases
the appropriation to $15,00O,0OO.
thirteen millions to the Mississippi,
and two millions to the Missouri
River, to be expended in the con>
struction, completion, repairing and
preservation of such works as in the
iudgmentof the commission will best
locate and deepen the river channels
and protect the banks, improve and
give safety and ease to navigation,
prevent destructive floods, and facil-
itate the trade and postal service.
Senator Kellogg, in opening the
debate, said that while the bill was
unanimously reported, some mem>
bers of the committee believed that
it would be better to impose no
restrictions upon the Mississippi
River commission, and would be at
liberty to agree to an amendment
constituting the members OF that
body sole judges as to whether any
part.of the appropriation shall be
used in building levees upon the
magnitude of the recent overflow
He said it covered the highly cnlti
waited area inhabited by farmers and
planters of nearly 1000 miles III
length and from 80 to so miles in
width. He said the States in the
valley had expended millions III
fruitless preventative measures thai
the corporations had been alike un
successful, and that now all were
compelled to look to the general
government for some effective plar
for protection. He understood the
commission to have adopted concen
tration rather than the outlet theory
the one upon which channel a
South Pass, deepened by the aid o
ietties, and he believed this plal
would utterly dispense with the ne
cessity for any levees, as this plal
would close gaps in embankments
confne the stream within narrowe
limits and increase cement in such
manner as to washout and deepe
the channel As to the justice OF tn

The Lamar House.

Messrs. Chas. III. Thomas and j. nj.
Reeves took charge of the Lamar House
the 18th of last February. In that time
the business of the house has constantly i'm
proved and the former good reputation of
the Lamar House, as the best hotel in Knox
vile, is being regained. The Lamar
House is the best furnished hotel in the
city of Knoxville, has the largest and most
comfortable rooms and the present proprie-
tors have demonstrated the fact that they
understand the art of keeping hotel. The
rapid increase of patronage at that house is
evidence that the Lamar is skillfuny man
aged. The proprietors are men of charac-
ter ond energy and show fixed purpose
and determination to maintain their repnta-
ton as business men. MIR. Thomas has
had long and valuable experience in the
business in which he is engaged. He has
many warm friends among the travelling
and the commercial men. He was the pro-
prietor of large and fourishing
hotel in Raleigh, N. c. Was connected
with Col. J. II. Rumbough at Warm Springs,
n c., for considerable time. Afterwards
was the partner of E. o. Tate at Mineral
Hill Springs, and then connected with Mr..
Thos. Tomlinson in the management of that
popular resort, ''Tate Spring" and coming
to Knoxville soon after the opening of the
Hattie House, was actively engaged in that
house, where he made many kind and warm
friends
Mr.. j. NJ Reeves has been on the road
as drummer for good houses in Atlanta, Ga,
and Knoxville and is favorably known to
the merchants and business men of East
Tennessee. He is genial, agreeable and
very accommodating.
These gentlemen have engaged the serv-
ices of Mr.. Edwin Thurston as steward. In
this they have been fortunate. He is pro-
ficient in his business, thoroughly under
standing the cooking of meats and vegeta-
bles, and is magnificent bread and pastry
cook. Mr. P. c. Chambliss is the clerk at
the Office. He is polite and gentlemanly
and is remarkable for his patience and ac-
commodation
The travelling public will be made COM
Portable and nowhere will they be better
cared for than at the Lamar House.
The Lamar House is to be congratulated
on having Stanton White for meat cook
and Perry Simpson for bread cook. They
are not only the best cooks in the city but
faithful and clever men

NASHVILLE.
Senator Barrett Rises to a Cues
tion of Privilege,
And Demands Immediate Action
on the Question Of Expulsion.
Democratic Convention Called
June 2Oth.


NASHVILLE, April Is.
SENATE. Senator Barrett arose to
question of privilege. He stated
that he understood there had been a
resolution introduced in the senate
expelling him from the senate, on
the alleged charges of bribery; and
that he was here to demand imme,
date action on said resolution. He
said he had, on March Both, resigned
his seat in the senate, but, not as he
had hoped, it had been refused. For
this action he claimed i'll health, and
not a, fear to face the charges of
bribery, and he further stated that
his health would not now permit him
to perform the duties of sens
ator, but for certain reasons
he had withdrawn his resignation,
he said, in justice to himself and the
State of Tennessee He was anx-
ious for the senate to take prompt
action Oh the resolution, and if he
was unworthy he ought not to be
allowed a vote; but on the other
hand, if not guilty, he thought it due
his character that the CLOUD now
hanging over him should be removed,
and for these reasons he was here to
demand immediate action on the
resolution.
Bill to repeal the section
of the appropriation act of Octo>
Der 1881, providing for the appro~
priotion Of S1,125,000 for the pay
ment of the State debt, passed third

Houston to present to Mr.. Childress
paper embracing the points of the
