A soRRowFUL republican exchange

Railway Mall Service.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1S.-W. b.
Thompson, general superintendent of
the railway mail service, submitted
kis annual report. 1t appears that On
June 80, 1884, there were III, 100
miles Of railroad upon which mails
were carried. as compared with seven
ty eight miles in 1884. During the
last fiscal year the increase was 6,952
miles; the number Of railway post
office lines in operation June 30, 1884,
was 845; annual miles Of service, 81,
$40, 099; increase in pieces OF mail
matter handled during the fiscal
year was 538, IA 220 pieces. The per
centsge of increase over 1883 was
13. 50; the percentage Of increase in
the numtcr of pieces registered mat
ter handled was 80 Increase in the
past year of railroad postofiice service,
including new service placed upon
old lines, 7,74I miles. Number c-In
alties during the year, 154, in which
seven postal clerks we're killed,
twenty-eight seriously injured,
and sixty slightly injured.
The recommendation is made that the
postmaster general be authorized to
pay TO the Uldow or minor children
of all clerks killed in the service
sum equal TO one years salary Of the
grade 70 which the clerk belonged at
the time Of his death. The appropri
alton for the service the present fiscal
year is a, 800. 0O0 1t is estimated
that this should be increased $301 900
for the next fiscal year, which would
make the appropriation 81 601, 900.
This is an increase of per cent. An
additional appropriation Of SS1. 300 is
recommended for increasing the
salaries Of clerks Of classes 5 and 10
81, 400 81 200 per annum respectively.
The appropriation for postal cars
for the present fiscal year is 81, 615, 900.

III. Randall Of Pennsylvania, from the
committee on rules, reported resolution
providing that the rules of the House Of the
18th Congress, a. amended BY this House,
shall be the rules of the House of the 18th
Congress until further orders.
Mr.. Reed of Maine stated that with the
omission of one clause in regard to election
cases, the rules proposed we're similar to the
rules Of the last Congress. Under that
clause the republicans in the last House
were enabled to prevent filibustering upon
the decision Of the right of member to
seat. The committee proposed to withdraw
that rule and 20 back to the old. system. To
this be had no objection, for the effect will
be the same with the republican minority
There would be no need of filibustering upon
election cases and he believed that in the
future there would be none of it.
A number of amendments were offered and
further consideration was postponed until
Thursday next.

SACo, FEB. T.
Hon. Ira T. Drew made the closing argu-
ment for the defence in the Barrows case, oc-
cupying three hours this forenoon. The argu-
ment for the State was made by Attorney
General II. B. Cleaves,
At three O'Clock Monday aftersoon, Mrs.
Bsrrows, the respondent of the murder trial.
fell in fit while the attorney general was
reviewing the damaging evidence against her
in his concluding argument. There was
breathless silence at the time. All eyes were
fixed on the speaker as he dwelt upon point
after point duplicating Mrs. Barrows with
the killing of her husband. Mrs. Barrows
had been listening with pallid but calm face.
She has preserved wonderful appearance
all through the trial. The strain finally
proved too much for her. She gasped few
times. clutched at the air and sunk back in
convulsion. A scene of excitement ensued.
"She's dying!" "She's stricken down." II
don't see how she stood it so long!' "That's
the end of this trial these and similar ex-
CARNATIONS were heard in undertones. The
usual foolish rush towards the woman was
attempted, but the crowd was wedged in 90
closely that not much of movement could
be made. There were some fears of panic,
bu, these quickly passed away. Water was
dashed on Mrs. Barrows and she was re-
moved to the open air by the sheriffs. She
slowly regained consciousness. In the mean
time the trial was suspended. The prospect
was that the court would have to adjourn
until Tuesday. but after fifteen or twenty
minutes she came into court again, looking
much broken. She declared she was able to
sit it out and the attorney general resumed
his argument. The trial has been full of
dramatic scenes but Mrs. Barrows' break
down made the greatest sensation.
Judge Virgins charge occupied over an
hour and the case went to the jury about six
o'clceI this evening. II is thought verdict
will be reached tonight and the court in con-
sequence will be kept open.
