A Dramatic Suicide.

Sr. LOUIS, No, April 1S.-Henry Engel-
king, middle.aSed cigar maker, after
yainly attempting to collect bills all day,
came home gloomy and respondent and
bid his wife goodbye. She tried to detain
him without avail. He walked to his store
where he bid his brother.in-.aw goodbye.
The latter saw a pistol and followed him,
bidding him remain at home, but Engelking
refused. and walked alone four miles to the
cemetery followed at distance by his
Jrother-in-law and another friend. Arrived
at the cemetery, his brother-in-law held
out his hand pretending to want to bid him
farewell, and hoping to pinion him. Engel,,
king eluded his grasp, however, and jumped
owes the fence on the lot where six OF his
children and brother were buried. Stand
ing on his eldest child'S grave, while his
brother-in-law and friend were peering at
him through the darkness, he placed a re-,
volver at his right temple and fired, and
fell dead Immediately. The suicide occurred
late last night and was remarkably dra-
matic.

THE CHINESE BILL.
How the Senate Will Amend IL.

WASmNGToS, April 1S.-The Senate Com
mittee on Foreign Relations, this morning,
agreed TO report certain amendments to the
House Anti-Chinese bill, instead OF report
ing new bill. This is done TO facilitate
the passage of the measure by avoiding
having two different bills. The House bill
was received by the Senate, this morning,
and the Senate Committee will, when it
comes up, offer their amendments. One is
to require the President OF the United
States, instead of Collector of Ports, TO en-
force the provision for sending out of this
country Chinese who come in violation of
this act Another amendment is to strike
out the fourteenth or fifteenth sections OF
the House bill providing that no State
courts shall admit Chinese to citizenship,
and defining the words Chinese labOrers"
to mean both skilled and unskilled labor
ers and Chinese employed in mining.
There are other amendments to be offered,
but they are verbal and do not change the
intent or meaning of the House bill. The
Senate Committee leaves the provision re-
lating to the passport system rs passed by
the House and as they were in the vetoed

Representative Kenna followed, stating
the history of the Monongahela appropria-
tions, and urging favorable action upon
Mr.. Hoge's application.
Mr.. Kenna then presented the claims OF
the Elk, New River, and Big Sandy, stating,
in detail, the widest benefits which had
been attained by the expenditures already
made.
Mr.. Kennas long service upon the Com
mittee of Commerce, from which he was
most unwisely excluded by Speaker helfer
in the formation of his Committees in this
Congress, has made him familiar with the
whole system of river and harbor improve
ments, and any statements made by him
are regarded with much favor by the pres
ent Committee.
Mr. Kenna did not refer to the kanaWha
and the Guyandotte, the appropriation 1or
these rivers having been agreed upon by
the Committee in the original draft OF the
bill. The amounts already agreed upon by
the Committee to be appropriated are two
thousand dollars for the Guyandotte and
two hundred thousand for the Great Mana

WASHINGTON, April 1S.-The action OF the
President in sending a special message to
Congress, advocating the taking charge by
the government of the Mississippi river and
improving its navigation by system of
dredging and levees creates much atten-
ton. There is nothing new in this posi-
ton, for as long ago as 1868 Judge Eustis OF
Louisiana, in an argument upon the ques-
ton, laid down the priRciple that the Miss
issippi belonged to the general government
and that it was the duty Of that government
TO take charge of and make its navigation
secure. and protect citizens from damages
by its overflow; but coming from the head
of the present administration, the recon-
mendation that the expenditure OF twenty
or thirty millions of dollars for this pur-
pose naturally causes considerable sur
prise.
There is no doubt but that something
should be done to prevent the recurrence OF
such disastrous floods aS recently swept
over that section: but at the same time
many of those who are most desirous to
see this done, will hesitate to launch out
into a scheme which has been estimated to
cost all the way from $4,000 900 to $780,
100000 and the prevailing question to-
night is: What does it mean?
Speaking OF RobesonS assumption Of
leadership in the House, a prominent
Western member said, this afternoon, that
he was glad Of it. but how the rank and
file on that side of the House, interested in
various branches OF legislation, will follow
this committee remains TO he seen, but |
predict that il will break down in the first
effort il makes at dictation. 1t is i'm
possible to draw the party lines on ques-
tions OF priority of business, and
every member will vote for his
measure being taken up first. Democrats
are perfectly willing that some system
should be adopted by the majority to facil-
itatc legislation. Heretofore the House
has drifted without any leadership what
ever II is better even to have a poor leader
than none at all. Hence am glad to see
thar some effort is being made to do the
business before the House in systematic
way, and let the us 20 home as soon as pos
sible. II we continue as we have been run
ming heretofore, We are sure to stay here all
summer and then do nothing G.
