The house was called to order at noon by Speaker Simonds.
 .lr Phelps of VerLon offered the fol- To wing resolution:
 Resolred, That if James P. Pigott ci New Haven tender an apology for hit past breach of the order of the house. the same shall be in writing and shall b, imm a,liateIy refel red to a committee composed of Messrs H. G. Newton, Toslyn of Hartford, F1sbie of Farming on, Corbin of New Britain, and Shade f Bridgeport, who shall report upon it. 1d iie .cncy before the same is laid befole he house for action.
 Mir Comstock of MJhtville off, It d al, amendment, as follow: That the C, m nittee should enquire whether the lan- :uage used by Mir Pigott was or was no parliamentary, and said that an exam natlon of the journal of the house would how that the language used by th' nnior member from New Haven wa. ot unparliamentary. He could see lothing which would lead him to be- ieve that he (Pigott) intended to make ny charge against any member of th, house.
 Mir Phelps of Vernon said that the ournal showed that the language uscd vas decided by both speaker and unan- nous action of the house to be out O Iler, and that the gentleman iron Iontville was out of order in assertin, hat the language was not unparliamen- tary.
 The chair sustained the point. And lso ruled the amendment offered h. the member from Montville out of order.
 Mir Carter of Waterbury moved to rike out all of the resolution except the requirement that the apology should b. in writing.
 Mir Troup of New Haven offered s Institute to the effect that if Mir Pigott desired to make an apology he should have the privilege of doing it orally and the house should be the judge of it's sufficiency.
 The previous question was ordered, the Troup amendment was lost, the Car ter amendment was adopted and the resolution as amended was passed. This simply requires that the apology, if any is made, must be in writing.
 Mir Phelps offered the following reso- lution :-
 Resolred, That Messrs H. G. Newton, l Joslyn, Corbln and Slade are hereby appointed committee to hear and re- port upon any charge which any mem- Der of the house may make of corrupt or improper influence, exercised in the appointment of any member or members of the house upon any committee or committees of the house or of the gen, eral assembly.

Lieut.. schuetze,s siberian Mission.

WASHINGTON, Nov. A.-The following letter
has been received by Secretary Bayard from
Lieut.. W. w. Schuetze United States navy, who
was sent to Siberia, last summer, to carry the
presents awarded to certain of the natives of that
country who befriended the survivors of the
Jeannettee:
Il have the honor to report my arrival here
on the 10Th inst, on my way to the mouth of the
Lena river. My route from ST. Petersburg was
the one usually followed in summer. From
Moscow to Tomsk. the travel by
steamer occupied ten days. and thence
by wagon to lrkutsk, seventeen DAYS. From
Tomsk the time used was unusually long. the
roads being the worst known for years. ** y
Owing to this unexpected delay in the latter
part OF the journey, will have to wait here
until the winter road opens to Yakutsk probably
in the early part of November I shall then
proceed to Yakutsk as rapidly as possible and
proceed to fit out the expedition to reach Irkutsk

now set in near Yakutsk, and the only practical

The Presidents Message.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 24-There was a full
attendance at the Cabinet meeting to-day. The
session lasted about three hours, and was de-
voted almost entirely to the consideration of the
Presidents message to Congress. The docu-
ment is in an advanced state of preparation, and
will be completed several days before the meet
ing of Congress One of the questions discussed
day was the order in which certain topics
should be considered. The President favored
the custom adopted by majority of his prede-
cessors as to the order of precedence, with few
exceptions, and sustained in his views by
all the other members of his Cabinet.

An Inhuman step-Mother.

CLEVELAND, O., Nov. A-At Delaware. O..
to day, Mrs VIM. Dunlap. who had formerly
moved in good society, being a member of a
leading church, was sent to Jail for
sixty days, to subsist on bread and
water, and fined $1OO, for cruelty
to her step children. The story of her cruelty.
as brought out at the trial. is most shocking. A
few days since she covered the body of one of
the children with soft SOAP poured cold
water on the little one, and scrubbed
her with a broom. The other child had been
suspended in a deep well with rope. Other
cruel treatment was clearly proven by the HUI
name Society. The woman was followed to the
Jail by jeering and hooting mob.

Bayard Must Go.

Washington Special.
A number Of leading Democrats have urged
upon the President the necessity of making
change in his Cabinet so far as the Department
of State is concerned. A prominent New York
Democrat had one or two conversations with the
President on the subject last week. He said to
the President that the burden of the criticism
of his administration had been occasioneo by
Mr. Bayard's appointments, and that his contin-
ued presence in the Cabinet would do more to
render the administration unpopular and
unsuccessful than any other one thing.
tentioE to the fact that Mr. Bayard
had willfully and needlessly got out with all
OK his old senatorial friends, so that their sup
port there could not be relied upon and that for
anything relating to foreign policy it was fore
ordained TO failure from the fact of Mr.. Bayard
being in the State Department. This gentle
man further said that no one questioned DIR.
Bayards honesty or the fact that he was we'll
meaning. His lack OF judgment, however, was
so great and he was so headstrong that he could
not be considered in any sense adviser fit to
be admitted TO the Presidents counsels This
gentleman has since said that the President
gave great atten ton TO what he said, and very
plainly intimated that he would not be unwilling
% get rid of Mr.. Bayard, if he could do it in a
way that would not reflect too much upon the
Secretary. He was not overanxious to have
him in the Cabinet in the first place. He had
great respect and regard for him, but he
was willing to acknowledge that the Secretary
had caused him more trouble than any other
member of his Cabinet. This visiting Democrat
is of the opinion that Mr.. Bayard will ultimately
be dropped from the Cabinet. He does not think
that there will be any hurry about it. Mr.. Bay
ard may be given a chance to get back to the
Senate as Mr.. Saulsbury's successor 1t is pos
sibe that he may be sent abroad to of the
missions. Phelps could be recalled without en-
dangering Vermont with the Democracy. 1t is
not customary to expect Cabinet officer to go
abroad during his term to any other place. ex-
cept England. The people of Delaware say Mr.
Bayard could not be elected to the Senate now
if he wanted to, and if the election of Sauls
burys successor at hand. He has lost his
popularity in that State with his local people as
much as he has with the national.

The Strike of the NailerS.

PITTsBURG Pa, Nov 24.-It is asserted in a
morning paper here, to-day, that the Eastern
nail manufacturers are furnishing the striking
naiers of the West with funds to carry on the
strike, which has been in progress since last
June, and that they have agreed to continue the
contributions till the strike ends one way or the
other. This action. it is sad accounts for the
promptness with which the manufacturers of
nails in the East granted the advance asked by
their nailers. The Eastern nailers too are
making weekly payments, and all the striking
nailers in the Western districts feel very much
encouraged by the outlook.

Important Tax Decision.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
EVANSVILLE, Nov 24-In the Superior Court,
to-day, Judge Dyer rendered very important
decision in the case of the County of Wander
burg VS.. The Straight-line Road. In 1882, the
Straight-line road had several hundred steel
rails lying in its yards, and taxes amounting to
81, 400 were assessed against it. The railroad
officials claimed that the rails were for use along
the line, but were detained here by the govern
ment for duty due on them. The county as
serted, however, that the rails belonged to the
company, and being in the limits of the county,
the taxes belonged here and nowhere else The
Judge decided in favor of the county, and rem
dered Judgment for ST., 1852. A new trial has
been asked for by the railroad company.
