OF Georgia. made point of order that while
the paragraphs contemplated change of the
law they did not on their face retrench ex-
pendituTes IN any Of the ways required by the
rules.
A long debate ensued. at the conclusion of
which the Chair Overruled the point Of order
The Chair was not without doubt as to the
correctness OF the ruling, but he thought that
the doubt should be resolved in such way as
to allow the matter to be voted upon by the
committee. Mr.. Blount appealed from the
decision Of the Chair.
The committee, by a vote of 80 to g. re-
fused to sustain thedecision of the Chair, ana
the new LEGISLATION concerning railroad mail
compensation was stricken from the bill.
Mr.: Horr then moved that the appropria
ton Tor inland mail transportation be fixed
at $4,Ol0,000, and that ST. 765 900
be appropriated for the railway
post Office car service This amendment
met with considerable opposition but was
adopted.
MR.. NICHOLS WINS A VICTORY.
Mr.. Nichols, Of Georgia. offered an amend
ment appropriating S265. 764 for necessary and
special facilities OF trunk lines.
After a brief and noisy debate by Messrs.
Nichols, McCOmas and Money, in favor Of
the amendment, and by Mr.. Townshend IN
adopted.
On motion Of Mr.. Horr, the appropriation
for the star route service was increased by
100000 and the appropriation for railway
post office clerks was Increased $4,000.
Mr.. Iownshend offered an amendment pro-
Vldlng that upon all publications of the second
class, when sent by the publishers thereof, or
from the office of publication, to bona fide
subscribers, or from news agencies to actual
subscribers, shall after July l, 1885, be enti-
tied to Transmission through the mails at l
cent per pound or fraction thereof This was
agreed to.
Mr.. Long, of Massachusetts, offered an
amendment providing that any article or
item IN any newspaper or other publication
may be marked for observation without an
Increase of postage.
This was agreed to.
Pending further action the cOmnlttee rose.
MIR. TOWnsheAd moved that the House take
a recess until O'Clock, but Mr.. White, of
Kentucky, made the point of no quorum, and
at $40 O'Clock a call of the House was or
dered. During the roll call, Mr.. White being
absent in one Of the cloak rooms, unanimous
consent was asked and given to dispense with
further proceedings under the call, and at
$3.50 O'Clock the House took a recess HntiI
O'Clock.
There were not more than two dozen mem-
bers present when the House met at O'Clock
tonight, and proceeded in committee of the
whole to further consideration OF the post
office appropriation bill. Several paragraphs
OF the bill ana amendments thereto were
passed over temporarily.
Mr.. Holman raised a point of order against
the paragraph allowing additional cOmpensa-
tIon for the transportation of ocean mail in
American steamships. The discussion upon
this point occupied the entire evening session,
and with 1t pending, the House took a recess
until 10 O'clock to- morrow morning.

INCUBATION OF CATTLE.
The Experiments of the DeIawar

The Experiments of the Delaware
Veterinarian Em1nentIy Successful.
W WILMINGTON, DEL, Feb. Estate
Veterinarian Rowland reports that inocu-
latiOn of cattle as a safeguard against
contagious pleurO-pneumonia has thus far
proved encOuragingly successful. Fifty
cows which were iEoculated two weeks
after exposure to infection passed, in Il
few days and with safety, through a mild
type of the disease, and are now regarded
as in excellent condition. DR.. Rowland
thinks that under more liberal legislation
the disease could be prevented from eX-
tending, but the Legislature manilests no
disposition to increase the appropriation
of $500 for this purpose, and the Governor
is not disposed to take upon himself the
responsibility of exceeding this sum,
though there is legal opinion that he has
authority to do SO. There are now six
dairies under quarantine in this CITY.

RandalPs Tariff Views Bar Him Out
Despite the President-EIect's Regard
for Him-AFr. Manning Being Strongly
Backed for Both the Treasury Secre-
taryship and Postmaster Generalship.
ALBANY, n. Y, Feb. 12.-The confused
rumOrs Of the last three days concerning
President-elect Clevelard's Cabinet are,
in a vague way, an index of what is 60
ing on in his own mind: Mr.. Cleveland is
thinking these days, and without advice.
He has not yet rendered Mr.. Bayard or
any one else a Cabinet portfolio, and does
not intend to make up his Cabinet piece
meal. By next week he expects to have
solved the whole problem, and will then
send out his letters proffering Cabinet po-
sitiOns. The report that Mr.. Randall was
thrice offered the Treasury Department
and refused is absolutely without founda-
ti0n. Mr. Randall has not been offered,
and will not be offered, a portfolio.
MIR. CleYeland's views on the tariff
question are too widely diver
gent from those of MIR. Randall
TO admit of his recognizing Mr.. Randall
so cOnspicuOusly, although Mr.. Cleveland
does not conceal his high regard for Mr..
Randall personally.
In spite of the fact that Mr.. Manning
announced at the outset that he would
not take Cabinet position he is being
strongly urged by good men upon Mr..
Cleveland for the Treasury Department.
The objection to Mr.. Manning is, first, as
those familiar with his political history
know, his comparative want Of knowl-
edge on the tariff question. Mr.. Man
ming has not given time to study of party
principles. In the second place the men
on whom Mr.. Manning has leaned. like
Smith Weed and Erastus Corning are
strong Randall prOtectiOnists, and Mr..
Manning is somewhat imbued with
these views. On the other hand
it is urged that his appointment would
satisfactorily solve the Cabinet problem
as regards New York's claims. Western
Democrats have written many and strong
letters in favor of Mr.. Manning for Post
master General.
CONSIDERED A GREAT ORGANIZER.
The Chicago convention inspired them
with great respect for his organizing
abilities, and they claim that the 60, 600
pOstmasters should be ''Organized1 for
the party. Whether Mr.. Manning is or is
not chosen, the objection to William G.
Whitney will probably be insuperable.
Mr. Manning declines to say anything
definite on the matter of his taking a
Cabinet position. 81 have always been
opposed to taking an office and the idea is
more repugnant to me now than ever"
Smith Weed passed the entire morning
with Mr.. Manning, and it is understood
strongly urged him to take the position.
MIR. Tilden is known now to favor Mr..
Manning.

ILLINOIS FILLIBUsTERING.

Democrats Meet in Joint Session, but
Fear TrIckery and Adjourn.
SPRINGFIELD, ILL, Feb. 12.-The Re
publicans of both houses to-day refused
to recognize the action of the Democrats
in the matter of voting for a Senator. A
few members of each party are still
absent. The morning hour in the House
was idled away, the Republicans making
several Intellectual efforts to adjourn. At
II O'CLOCK the doOrkeeper announced the
attendance of the Senate and % Demo-
cratic members of that body filed in and
took their seats. When the vote for Sen
ator was directed only one vote was re-
corded, the Democrats fearing that the
Republicans were there in greater force
than seemed apparent and could, If the
Democrats had voted, appear and give
their candidate clear majority. An ad-
Journment was then taken till tomorrow
WITH ONE FOOT IN THE GRAVE.
ALBION, Ill, Feb. 12.-This afternoon
10 men went out to the residence of State
Senator Brown Rep, who is very ill.,,
and carried him 10 GRANVILLE, a distance
OF miles, on stTetcber. He Will re-
main at GRANVILLE tonight, and to-mOr-
row morning will leave for Springfield
in special car. He is very weak, but
his friends think that he will staud the
trip. He is paired with Senator Bridges
till tomorrow, and upon his pres
ence in or absence from the capitol the
election of United States Senator may de-
pend. Without him the Republicans are
l in the minority in joint ballot.

The French Fighting.

PARIS, Feb. PA dispatch from Tom
quin states that the French column adj
vancing toward Langsou. under COM

days hard fighting in the defiles of the

heavy, but the troops are making steady
progress despite the obstinate resistance

Circuit Court to-day for an injunction

and Philip Reiser, teacher at Rogers

school for refusing to take part in
the forms of prayer and worship

and his family are all Roman Catholics
and do not believe in the form of prayer
and worship introduced in the school,
that he refused to take part in them, but
behaved himself with perfect prOpriety
while the other scholars took part in
them, and that on Feb. 6, Mr.. Reiser, a
teacher, ordered him to take his books
and leave the school and forbade his ever
returning again until he was willing to

KILLED BY SEWER GAS.
Five Men Perish at Chicago and Seven

Five Men Perish at Chicago and Seven
Others Have Narrow Escapes.
CHICAGO, Feb. 12.-FIve men were
asphyxiated in a sewer late this after
noon. Several days ago the main sewer
in Kinzie street, 3 feet in diameter, be-
came clogged, and to-day a gang of
eleven men We're sent to clean
it. Nine men went into the sewer
with scraper fitting the conformation
of the sewer dragging it from man-hoIe
to man-hoie, while the other two remained
above ground to draw up mud and dirt
through the man-hOles. Between Hal
stead and Union streets an unusually
long time was consumed. Finally the
foreman, bending down at mouth
of the man-h0le, heard CRY
for aid, and, going down, found
the men near the opening, some
of them gasping for breath and others
lying dead. There was verv
strong smell of gas. A rope was passed
down to him, as the survivors were un-
able to climb up the ladder. After two
had been assisted up, the foreman found
himself failing from the effects of the gas,
and was obliged to go to the surface. An
other man went down and rescued three,
and third assisted the remaining five.
-Four were dead when brought up, and
another died soon after. The survivors
say that the first intimatiOn that ANYTHING
was wrong was when one man dropped.
