to go home he did not notice the change but he did

WASHINGTON, March 6.-The senate judi
ciary committee 10 day reported bill to es-
tablish uniform system of bankruptcy and
it will be called up for consideration as soon
as the pending order is disposed Of. 1t pro-
yides that whe never any person without funds,
shall become involved in debts and liabilities
beyond his mears of payment, amounting to
$500 and upwards, he may apply, by petition
in equity, to the United States district court,
setting forth the cause of his involving, and
giving a schedule of liabilities and assets, and
NAV surrender his estate for the benefit of his
creditors, except such as may be exempt fir om
execution, and if good cause appear,
bankrupt and appoint receiver
and serve notice to all interested
persons aud distribute the estate according
to the rules of equity and if there was no
fraud the petitioners shall be discharged as
bankrupt That when person runs away on
absents or conceals himself, or makes fraud
ulent transfer of property, or otherwise at
tempt to defraud credltorsi the latter may
file a petition for bankrupt proceedings

other creditors, but money obtained
and used in good faith, though unsuccessfully
to avert an impending bankruptcy, or to save
a threatened sacrifice of property, for sickness

payment or in security by this court. If it

sought to force debtor into bankruptcy, or
to obtain any fraudulent advantage over the
creditors, the court may deny such creditor
participation in the estate. District courts

Grafton of bankrupt business and at regular
sessions bankrupt business shall have prece-

Proposed amendment of the Rules.

WASHINGTON, March 6.-Republcan men,
bers favorable to the new rules do not believe
the Democratic caucus can control all the
members of the party to vote against the
amendments proposed by the majority report
They profess to believe as many as twenty
Democrats will be absent or not voting. In
no congress since 1872 has there been so many
bills calling for expenditures of a local char
acter, and of those fair proportion would go
to Democratic districts, more especially to the
South. Under the present rules a
very few members are able to Impede
action on such bills. 1t is
evident, however, a very earnest and protrac-
ted party fights to be made over the new
rules, equalling perhaps that which marked
the adoption of the present rules.
DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS ACTION.
Immediately after the adjournment of the
house to-day caucus of Democratic men,
bers was held to decide upon the line of poll
cy to be pursued by the Democrats relative to
the proposed changes in the rules of the
house. Representative Kenna, W, Va, Of
fered the following resolution:
RcSolved, That in the judgment of this eau
Gus the amendments TO the rules of the
house OF representatives proposed by the ma
jority of the committee on rules are destruc-
tive of these just rights and necessary priv
lleges of the minority which the Democra tic
majority in former congresses never denied
Republican minority and that we will resist
their adoption by every parliamentary method
at our command.
RESOLVED, further, that we will cheerfully
support any amendments to the rules of the
house which tend to promote their improve
ment or the proper faciljtation of public busi-
uess, and not destructive of the rights Of the
minority and of the people they represent.
After brief discussion the resolutions were
unanimously adopted, and the caucus ad-
journed subject to call OF the chairman.
