before him containing his wife and little boy,
2 years old. When near the middle of the
lake, in crossing hole only recently frozen
over, the ice broke, precipitating all three in

YEAS.

An amendment by Hoar, declaring that
bonds bearing SH per cent. interest, to which
the bills refer, are hereby declared legal, elic-
tied continuance of the discussion upon the
ratification of the funding of IS and Is,
BY ex-Secretary Window.
Senator Vest said he would vote against any
ratification, and leave to the republican party
the responsibility for the transaction, and to
the country to pass upon its validity. He en-
tered his protest, so far as he could do so,
against what the secretary did, bnt regarded
his act as practically beyond the province OF
congress.
Secretary Dawes inquired whether Vest did
not think it was within his power to re-
lease to the government his own salary.
Senator Vest replied that was not the point;
but it was as to the huxtering and bartering
by the executive officer without action of con.
gress authorizing him to do it.
Senator Windom-WIll the senator state the
act under which he did that?
Vest-Well, that's the question. Laughter
on the democrats sidel I have been trying
to get an answer to that question, and it is moi
forthcoming.
Senator Window said be would like to hear
some more specific definition of the particular
act which was alleged to be unconstitutional

ed was the act by which the secretary of the
treasury without the act of congress author
izing him to do 1t, called on creditors holding

Ike assassin.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-Guiteau is begin
ming to show much nervousness and instabil
ity. he is suffering from severe cold. which
has iufamed his eyes. One jail official says b,
would not be surprised if Gui;eau did not liv,
to be hanged. John W. Guiteau last evening
spent an hour in his brothers. cell, in company
| with Warden Croker. The prisoner became
excited and denounced his brother and SEQ
vile.
DISPOSAL OF GUITEAU's CORPSE.
In view of the recent propositions to MAKE
a public spectacle of Guiteau's remains, it il
thought highly probable that Judge Cox will
exercise the discretion given him by the re
pose of the body.
John w. Guiteau, 10 q card to the public
disavows all knowledge of the proposed exhi
bition of his brothers body, and says thai
whether his brother dies by legal process or IL
an insane asylum, the body will be disposed o.
in q manner that will not offend public de
cency.
Scoville pronounces the story that Mrs
Scoville is insane as false. Ha says she /;
mentally under high state of excitement
but her mind Is entirely sound. He also de-
the Daniels house, Chicago, false: that it wa:
made out of whole cloth. he declares that
there is not word of truth in it. He and
other relatives of Guiteau have no doubt but
the body of the assassin will be delivered to
them after the execution. Scoville appears tc
regard favorably the proposition to exhibit the
body of the assassin, but John Guiteau de-
nounces it, and says it shall not be done
Scoville has expended his money in the
trial, and it is sad he would not object to be-
ing reimbursed by the sale of the body in case
Guiteau is executed.

he says they AL proved to be good
hands, understanding their business
thoroughly. Well, we paid visit to

to the depot to take the 9p. m. train
to return. The ticket agent had closed
his shanty and gone to pay his dis
tresses to his girl. To put in our time
pleasantly we made "Headquarters"

track and made the proper motions

but he was more frightened than hurt,
and at last reached the train without
any more mishaps. Edmonson, when
complimented upon his forethought,
