sUNDRY CIVIL APPROPRIATIONS.
The Conference Report Again Consid-
cred by the House.


WASHINGTON, Sept. 1s-In the House
to-day Mr.. Forney of Alabama, called up
the conference report on the sundry civil
appropriation bill . When last before the
House the report was opposed by Mr.. Pay
son of Illinois who antagonized the approp-
ration for continuing the new library
building and advocated an absolute abroga-
ton of the present plan of construction.
Mr.. Forney proceeded to reply to this at
tack and to defend the plan as proposed In
the conference report.
A POLITICAL DEBATE.
The discussion soon depressed from the
new library building and became general
and political, being turned in that direction
by Mr.. Cannon of Illinois, who made
speech on the general subject of appropria-
tions, contrasting the expenditures of this
administration with those of President Ar
thurs administration, and repeating for
the information of the House the statement,
which has already been made in the senate,
that the democratic administration had ex-
pended in four years 500, 100000 more than
had been expended during the last four
years of republican administration.
Mr.. Burnes of Missouri took up the cud-
gel in defense of the administration, but he
said he would defer reply to Mr.. Cannon's
remarks until the deficiency bill came be-
fore the House, but he declared that much
Of the increased appropriations was due to
the republican Senate, or amendments
creating them were offered by the gentle
man from Illinois and advocated by his
party friends.
SOME COLD FACTS.
He read a statement showing that the
Senate, in four years, had increased the
sundry civil bill by $24, 000, 900, and this in
spite of the fact that the House conferees,
headed by Mr.. Randall, had resisted the
increase with bitterness.
Mr. O'Neill of Pennsylva iia-For the in
formation of the gentleman on that side of
the House. / will inform them that one week
from tomorrow Samuel j. Randall will be
nominated unanimously by democratic
convention composed of all shades of demo-
crats, without reference to the tariff. Zap
plause on the democratic side
Mr. O'Neill of Missouri-And get every
intelligent vote in the district.
Mr. O'Neill of Pennsylvania doubt
whether there will be a republican nomina
ton against him. There have been efforts
in some quarters to push him out, but the
people will take care of him. [Cries on the
democratic side of Hes all right"
Mr.. Payson brought the debate back to
the new library, with an attack upon Arch
itect Smithmeyer, who designed the build
ing, who, he declared, to be either incompe
tent or deceitful.
Mr.. Kelley of Pennsylvania defended Mr..
Smithmeyer and his plans.
Pending discussion the matter went over.

He is so Unpopular with His Men
that He Is Apt to be Shot.
LONDON, Sept. 10, A. MA letter
from an official of the Congo state, dated
July 70, reports pitiable state of affairs at
Aruwhimi. The writer says; Half of the
men have died either from disease or from
starvation. Those who have gone with
Maj. Barttelott are too weak and emaciated
TO combat the difficulties before them.
Great complaint is made against
Maj. Barttelott for harshness and for
his disregard of Stanley's order to consult
with other officials who have not a good
word to say of him. The white men hate
him, aud several threatened to shoot him
on the march. Tippoo lib is so disguised
with him that he regrets having brought
him men. Maj. Barttlelott believes that
Stanley has persisted should not be sur
prised il Tippoo Tbs men, who don't relish
the job at all, will return in few months
with story that all of the white men have
been killed -
