 By Mr. Davis, of Mississippi, to establish a bureau of public health.
 By Mr. Comstock, of Michigan, to estab- fish a graduated income tax.
 MT. Bland of Missouri, offered resolution
 preceded by preamble reciting that at the American bankers convention at Chicago last September George S. Coe, president of the American Exchange National bank, had stated that there was arrangement be-
 tween the Treasurydepartment and the clear ing house committee of New York, and it was the earnest effort of the clearing
 house to preserve the gold standard, and declaring that the House of Representa- tives of the second session of the Forty eighth Congress had refused by decided vote to consider proposition to suspend the coinage of the silver dollar. The resolution requests the Secretary of the Treasury to in- form the House whether or not such an arrangement was effected, and if so | by what authority of the law the Treasury department assumes to virtually suspend the coinage of silver by hoarding the money in | the treasury after it is coined It also calls for the amount of silver dollars in the treas | ury March last unrepresented by outstand- | ing silver certificates; the amount of silver certificates in circulation at that and the present times and what amount of sil- yer dollars was in the treasury on | March last which could have been applied
 in payment of interest; and the amount at
 present in the treasury could be so applied;
 also what amount of the interest bearing
 debt is now subject to call, and what policy
 is to be pursued in the payment of silver
 thereon an on other public dues.
 There was some controversy as to the ref
 erence of the resolution. Mir. Hewitt, of
 New York, took the ground that it should go
 to the Banking and Currency committee, but
 the Speaker pro.tem. (Wellborn, of Texas, , | decided that it should go to the Committee on Coinage, Weights and Measures.
 Bills were further introduced as follows

 MT. Little, of Ohio, a resolution directing the Judiciary committee to inquire, first, whether under existing law, and if so what law, the Attorney General is authorized at the instance and in the interest of private corporations or individuals, in the name and at the expense of the United States, to in- stltute and carry on or de- fend against, suits to cancel or annul letters patent issued to United States citizens under the laws on account of in ventlons or discoveries, said United States having no pecuneary or other interest there in. Second, whether if such authority exists and it's continuance be deemed wise in the Judgment of the committee, the law confer ring the same shall now be made so specific as that parties in interest can be apprised with certainty in what cases and under what con- ditions they may look to the United States to undertake the burden of their legislation in that behalf
 When the call of States was completed sev- eral motions to adjourn were made on the Republican side, but all were voted down.

 Mir. Brown, of Indiana, inquired whether the effect of the passage of the bill under suspension of the rules would be to put to one side the amendment which was pending to the bill repeating the limitation on the ar rears of pensions act and on receiving an af hrmative response moved that the House ad- journ. Lost, yeas 96; nays I'll.

Pastor Downs Put on the List.


 BOSTON, Feb. 1.-The eighty third annual report of the Massachusetts Baptist conven- tion is just made public. In the record of the Bowdoin Square church list of ordained ministers, and in short in every place where it would naturally have appeared, the name of Rev. W. w. Downs is suppressed MT Downs and his counsel called upon Rev. Dr. Boswo1th, under whose care the report was made up relative to the matter. Dr. Bos- worth acknowledged that Mir. Downs was still pastor of the Bowdoin Square church, that the charges against him had not been proved, denied that he had withheld Mr. Downs name and thought it must have been a printers error. MT. Bosworth was then confronted with the printers proof which he himself had corrected with his own pencil mark drawn through MT. Downs name. Dr. Bosworth, being informed that he was guilty of criminal libel, signed a public notice that Downs name should have ap- peared. In discussing the Downs scandal Dr. Bosworth said he never believed the charges, but he knew of ten other clergy men who would bear watching and one of them was the father of an illegitimate child
