THE REVISION OF THE RULES. Bills to be Distributed
 Among the Committees.


 WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-As the time for the opening of Congress approaches the pros pect for revision of the rules of the House and the distribution of some of the appropri- ation bills among certain committees seems to brighten. The Star this evening publish es an interview with Congressman Springer on this subject. Mir. Springer, when asked what he thought of the prospect for revis- ion of the rules this winter, replied: II think it will be done. I have prepared 8 re- vision which have been at work on all sum- mer and intend to submit it for adoption. have gone Over the@ subject with great care"
 ''Does your revision make any distribution of the appropriation billss" ''Yss, it takes three from the Appropriations commit tee. The army bill I give to the Military committee, the naval bill to the Ma val committee and the postofice bill to the Postofice committee. The others all left with the Appropriations committee. Not only does my revision deal with this branch of the subject, but it includes every feature of the rules which obstrust business. After three days my revision prohibits flibustering. 'sNow want here,' said he, ito disclaim, in taking bills from the Appropriations com mittee, any idea or object of striking at Mir. Randall. My object is to facilitate public business The Appropriations committee now has more than it can attend to in good order and in proper time."

An Autopsy to be Made of the Brain.
 PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 17.-Mrs. McCul- tough, the wife of the late tragedian, sent for Lawyer Johnson late last night and told him she wanted her dead husbands brain ex- amined ESQ that the medical profession might be satisfied as to the mental disorders that are supposed to have been the cause of his death because there was such wide differ
 ence of opinion existing among physicians. Ever since Thursday afternoon, when the widow as she left the cemetery looked for the last time the coffin of her dead husband, she has been fearful that the body would be stolen or at least that the head would be severed from the body in the cause of science, and ever since then she has been haunted by this thought, so that she cannot rest content until an au- topsy has been made. She believes that if an examination is made and the result given to the world it will satisfy scientists generally as to the cause of her husbands death, and that then the body will not be disturbed. Mrs. Mccullough feared last night that the body had already been stolen or that the head had been carried off by persons who had been hired by some scientist. These thoughts

Big Law Case Comes To Sudden
 Terrnin atfOn,

A Big Law Case Comes To Sudden
 Termination.
 The Charter Oak Life Insurance company matter came to 8 sudden end yesterday after noon in the court at Hartford in the with drawal by the insurance department of the application for receivership.
 Judge Granger said So far as any re- sponsibility rests on the court, I have tried to accept every responsibility that belonged a s;niggestng this settlement @ Of the case is apparent to me that the interests of the policyholders would be better conserved by leaving them or their directors to manage af- fairs in their way than by any other. If dissatisfied then they have remedy. The commissioner is not open to criticism for taking the course he has. It is his duty to see that the policyholders' interests are pro- tected. They ask leave to care for their owE interests. If the company was wound up under receiver at this time there would be a sacrifice of property; now they can hold it for better times. I think it is for the best interests of everybody that the arrangement of counsel be carried out. It has my full ap- proval.
 Mr Maltbie-Then we withdraw our ap- plication for receiver.
 Judge Granger-The matter of expenses you will arrange among yourselves, gentle men.
 This ended the case.

A Supposed Case.


 Suppose by a wild stretch of imagination, that some mechanism that will make rod turn round one of it's ends, quite slowly at first but then faster and faster, till it will revolve any number of times in 8 second; which is, of course, perfectly imaginable, though you could not find such rod or put together such mechanism. Let the whirl- ing go on in dark room, and suppose man there knowing nothing of the rod; how will he be affected by it.?
 So long as it turns but few times in a second he will not be affected at all unless he is near enough to receive blow on the skin. But as soon as it begins to spin from sixteen to twenty times a second, a deep, growing note will break in upon him through his ear, and, as the rate then grows swifter, the tone will go on, becoming less and less grave, and soon more and more acute, till it will reach pitch of shrillness hardly to be borne, when the speed has to be counted by tens of thou sands At length, about the stage of forty thousand revolutions a second, mora or less,- the shrillness will pass into stiffness; silence will again reign as at the first, any more be broken.
 The rod might now plunge on in mad fury for a very long time without making any diff ference to the man; but let it suddenly come 1 to whirl some million times second, and l then through intervening space faint rays of | heat will begin to steal toward him, setting | up feeling of warmth in his skin, which again will grow more and more intense, as now through tens and hundreds and thou sands of millions the rate of revolution is supposed to rise. Why not billionss The I heat at first will be only so much the greater. | But, lol about the stage of 400, ,000, 00O,- l 900 there is more-a dim red light becomes visible in the gloom; and now, while the rate still mounts up, the heat in it's turn dies l away till it vanishes as the sound vanished; 1 but the red light will have passed from the eye into yellow, green, blue, and, last of all, violet. And to the violet, the revolu- 1 tions being about 800, ,O00, 100000 second, 1 there will succeed darkness-night, as in the beginning, This darkness, too, like the still 1 ness will never more be broken. Let the rod whirl on as it may, it's doings cannot come within the ken of that mans senses. Lubricate the lungs with Dr. Roberts Cough Syrup of Tar, Boneset and Wild Cher ".

THE ATTITUDE OF THE SENATE In Regard To The Appointm ents of
 President CIeHeiand.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-There will be canvass of the Republican senators held soon to decide upon the course to be followed with regard to President Cleyeland's ap- pointments. The exact date for the meet ing has not been fixed, but it will probably be week before the beginning of the ses- sion of Congress. There is wide diversity of opinion among senators as to the best course to follow. Some of the most radical are in favor of opposing the confr rmation of all new officials whose appointments are con sidered to be opposed to the tenure of office law. Others believe the President should be accorded the right to name his own officials at pleasure where his doing so is not a viola ton of the civil service law. The question will be thoroughly discussed in caucus and it is altogether uncertain what the decision will be- Senator Hale said to-day that it was impossible to tell at this time what the attitude of the Senate would be, but that the matter would be settled in caucus before Congress meets.
