IN A NUTSHELL.

This transaction may be thus stated: Mr..
Blaine testifies:
l never owned q share of the stock in
Credit Mobilier in my life, either by gift, pur-
chase or in any way whatever. No person
holds, or eTer did hold, for me any stock in
either corporation as agent or trustee, or in
any capacity whatever. Itcid my testimony
10 Be taken ezha,lstire, and as Intended TO er-
oi,sde eJsTy form or phase OF osr1aSliD IN The
Credit 4Ao6ilier or tie Union Pacific Railroad
Company, both past and present.
He made this statement Dec. 70, 1872.
and when the Mulligan letters came to light
they show that in 1871, on his own testi-
mony, he was part owner in Sc, 900 of the
land grant bonds Of the Union Pacific rail-
road. These he exchanged for comparative
~ worthless Little Rock land bonds at a
time when the Union Pacific bonds we're
worth s2Z and were paying per cent in
terest- He also desired 10 exchange them nth a
r0visO that they could b changed back rI7aegeT
he desired. This meant that, when the Credit
Slobilier storm was over, he might be able to
again get the Union Pacific bonds. It Is
also fair to assume that il these bonds were
honestly acquired there was nothing for him
to fear. II they belonged to his ward and be
held them as guardian or trustee, ne had
only 70 say so and his statement would have
been accepted without question.

As woman, accompanied by a

passing a store on Michigan

belonging to the merchant, gave
the lad snap on the leg. A

raised over the circumstance, and
the merchant finally inquired:
"How much do you want to

"Ten yards of Calico" promptly
replied the woman.

The cloth was torn off and
handed to her, and mother and
son took their departure. They
returned, however, in a few min
utes, and when the merchant
asked what was wanted, she re-
piled:
"It's the boy who is raising the
fuss, sir. He says he got the

isn't satisfied.
"Woll, what does he want?"

proceeded with the call OF committees for re.
ports, during which the militia bills were
reported.
Mr.. Ellis, of Louisana, from the Committee
on Appropriations, submitted the Indian ap-
preparation bill. The total amount recon-
mended is So. 1887, 653. The estimates were
81, 466. 800. Ordered placed on the calen-
dar
Mr.. Blackburn, who had called Mr.. Springer
to the chair, moved to proceed to business ON
the calendar in order to consider revenue
bills (the whiskey bill)- Agreed to; yeas 13e,
nays 12I. Although significant the vote was
not regarded as test, as some members voted
for it = no will vote against the bill. The
House accordingly went into committee, Mr..
Dorsheimer in the chair, and the bonded
extension whiskey bill was read by title.
Mr. Hiscock objected to its confederation,
which under the rules required tbs commit
tee to rise and report the fact to the House.
The question sWill the House direct the
committee to consider this bill?" was pat and
the yeas and nays again taken; yeas 1877,
nays 118.
MIR. White, of Kentucky, created much
excitement by insisting that the committee
rise to permit him to present question of
high privilege. He charged that member
of the whiskey ring was on the floor, al
though he had registered his name as an ex-
member and certified that he had no interest
in pending legislation and that two days af@
ter signing that certificate he appeared before
the Ways and Means committee to advocate
this bill. He also saw on the floor the editor
of the Courier-Journal of Louisville, the
place where this bill was born. His point of
order was overruled and his protest drown ned
by cries of "Orderi Orderi"
Mr.. Morrison, of Illinois, was then recog-
nized and addressed the committee in adj
vocacy of the bill. After giving historical
explanation of the case Mr.. Morrison agreed
that it was better to leave the dues with the
distillers at II than to force payment of taxes
and use the money for the redemption Of
bonds paying but 3 per cent.
Mr.. White. of Kentucky, interrupting
asked if the distillers paid the per cent.
when the period was extended before and
whether they would pay this and whether
the bill was not scheme TO avoid payment
of the tax altogether.
Mr.. Thompson, of Kentucky, said they
paid the per cent. promptly until the guam
tity of whiskey in bond made it not worth
collecting.
Mr.. Morrison then resumed his speech say
ing the Ways and Means committee at the
last session had without division reported q
bill granting unlimited extension and without
interest and the Senate had passed bill
giving an extension of two years with inter
est. He favored any measure that would
give relief to any large class of the people
without injury to the government and CON-
sidered this measure of that kind.
The committee then rose and at 5:15 D. m.
the House adjourned.

The Diseases Among Cattle.
ST. LOUIS, March 19.-Governor Crittenden
has addressed letter to the chairman of the
meeting held recently in Adsir county where
the foot and mouth disease is said to have
appeared in which he advises the people to
use prompt and vigorous measures to stamp
out the diseases He calls attention to q
certain Law on the subject and thinks it
sufficient to meet the emergency il
properly enforced. He says he will do all
he can to help the people in staying the
malady and desires to be kept informed of
the condition of affairs. In reply to the
request Of E M, Craig. formerly inspector
of the Brighton cattle yards, now a promi-
nent farmer and cattle raiser at Caldwell,
Mo-, who asks for the appointments of a
committee with power to deal with
the disease. the Governor says he has no
authority to create such a commission and
believes the existing laws ample to protect
every community if the people will use
proper exertion. The opinion seems to be
gaining ground in both this State and Kansas
that the reports OF the diseese have been
exaggerated and that much of the sickness
among the cattle is the result of foot ret or
frostEbite and not the dreaded footEand mouth
disease at all.
