Private CALENDAR BILLS.

Mr.. johnson, of Tennessee. Turns an
Unpleasant Remark into "a Laugh.
WASHINGTON, April 16.-In the House
to-day the committees were called for re-
ports OF a private character and the
House then went into committee Of tine
whole on the private calendar. The first
bill in the calendar was that which was
thoroughly debated last Friday for the re-
lief of the McMinnville and Manches-
ter Railroad Company, Of Tennessee, but
the discussion was continued to-day with
unabated vigOr. The facts and laws
bearing upon them was closely scruti-
nized and commented upon, and some
degree of heat was evolved by the con-
flCting speeches of the debate, pro and
con, B'r. Houk, Of Tennessee, being
worked up to the point Of asserting that
a statement, made By Mr. Johnston, of In
diana, was untrue. But any excitement
which might have been aroused by this
remark was turned into laughter by
the benignant manner in which
Mr.. Johnston, (whO is a large man },
declined to have any personal conflict with
Mr. HOuk on account of the size OF that
gentleman. The bill was finally reported
To the House without recommendation,
but il was not definitely disposed Of. The
House then, at 4;40 O'Clock, took recess
until 80, the evening session TO be for the
consideration Of pension bills.

FOR MANY BLOCKS.

No Violence Yet Attempted by tho
Strikers-Several Men Assaulted and
Beaten Into Insensibiiity at st. Louis
and Hannibal-BIr. Huxie Not Inclined
to ArDitrate.
NEW YORK, April 16.-The employees Of
the Third Avenue street car line went on
a strike this morning, and a general ''tie-
up" of all the lines controlled by that line
is the result. Third avenue from early
this morning, between the stables at
Sixty-fifth street and the Bowery, was
lined with police officers to prevent any
interference on the part of the strikers if
the company should proceed to run its
cars. Police were also held in
reserve at headquarters and at
the police stations along the route
OF the road. The Superintendent of Po-
lice had conference with the officers of
the road during the morning, at which 1t
was decided TO make no attempt to run
cars beyond the SiXty-fith street stables
or below Grand street, but 10 keen up
communication between these two points
to the greatest practicable extent. The
police do not anticipate trouble from the
strikers, but are prepared to meetit il any
is made. The company decided TO run as
many cars as they can get drivers for be-
tween the stables at Sixty-ffth
street and Broome street, be-
ginUing at 10 O'Clock this
morning, and asked the5police to protect
them along that route. When the strik-
ers left work this morning they cOngre-
gated IN groups along Third avenue, but
were quickly scattered and kept moving
by the police. A number of Italians were
put to work by the company to feed and
take care of the horses.
AN ALLEGED UNION MANS NOTE.
A communication was received by the
Third Avenue street car officials this
afternoon as follows:
"GENTLENTEN: This time the public
in general will stand by you.
"a UNION MAN"
The company to-day ran six cars, max
ing in all thirteen trips. At O'Clock the
leader of the strikers sent a message TO
the Railway Commission asking its
members to come at once to this city. A
reply was received stating that
the Board would accord a hearing
in the Governors rooms at
the City Hall at 10 o'clock tomorrow
morning. The strikers say they expect
the Commissioners will insist in the rum
ming of cars at once, or else declare the
cOmpany's charter forfeited. "And if the
charter is forfeited, we shall apply for it."
said one of the committee. Thus the mat
ter is in abeyance until Tomorrow. The
