The House went into committee of the
whole on the deficiency appropriations bill.
After controversy an arrangement was ar
rived at under which the general debate on
the bill, with the exception of the French
spoilation claims section, was limited to one
hour. The bill was then read for amend
ments.
Kerr of Iowa, in offering formal amend
ment, spoke of the obligation of the general
government to care for ex-soldiers. He said
that if the President had recommended some
favorable legislation to the attention of the
House, judging by the effect of his efforts in
certain other matters, his views would have
prevailed and the country might be relieved
of the great danger of large surplus in the
treasury.
Burnes of Missouri, maintained that the
government had cared for the soldiers
with generosity unparalleled in the
history of nations, while the present
administration has done more for the
soldiers, widows and orphans than any other
administration.
Saaers of Texas offered an amendment to
pay official reporters $1,000 each for extra
labor. Agreed to.

ton bill pending.

WASHINGTON, April 14.-In reply to
Senator Chandler's letter asking the
removal of Indian Agent Gregory for
alleged completely in timber depreda-
tions on the Chippewa reservation,
Secretary Villas wrote long letter, re-
viewing the case and concluding as fol.
lows: 1T does, indeed, appear from
Gregory's testimony that the written
instructions of the Indian office
were disregarded in some particu-
lars and in strict discipline, he
merits apprehension for failure to obey
them, but he strongly negatives any in
tent of wrong. His character as an
honest, upright business man requires
careful consideration, and perhaps some
less severe condemnation than summary
dismissal from the Office may prove
more nearly adequate and sufficiently
corrective for discipline's sake. The cut
ting of timber for this season has been

ment of the senate committee, nOtwith-

EAU CLAIRE, Wis, April 14.-In the
case of Julius Opdale, attorney, against
w. K. Atkinson, editor of the Daily
Leader, for $4,000 for libel, the jury
this afternoon returned verdict of no
cause of action. The trial had lasted
three days. The Daily Leader had
charged that Opdale defrauded a
sick prisoner i'll the county
Jail, now deceased, out of
his money and a watch for pretended
legal services, which were not rendered,
also ch lrging Cpiale with general rascal
ity during his residence here. Atkinson
brought the prisoners widow and others
to prove the charges true. The county
judge, the district attorney, the circuit

mayor elect, the member of
the assembly, the chief of
the fire department, an ex-sheriff,

CHANGED HIS TACTICS.
Billings Comes Down From His
High Horse and Is More Docile.

Special to the Globe.
WAvERLY, To-, April 14.-The
eleventh day of the Billings trial was
spent in the examination of the defend
ant. The examination concluded this
afternoon, and Billings stepped down
from the witness staud after having
undergone thorough three-dayS' eX-
animation. Billings changed his tactics
this morning. and dispensed with much
OF the cOmbative spirit which has
characterized the two preceding
says of his examination. That his in
terview with his council last evening is
connected with the change seems
probable, when we consider the sharp
rebukes which his senior counsel, Mr..
Wellington, frequently has given his Oft
recurring verbose encounters with the
states attorneys. However, as the eX-
animation proceeded during the day,
Billings nature asserted itself, and the
day was not without its scenes. The
testimony was of course nothing more
than series of explanations either
called out by questions, or voluntarily
given by the defendant. The defend
ant rehearsed substantially his narra-
tive given on previous days. The de-
fenSe seemed to be endeayOring to in
duce the prosecution, or the court, to
drop some expression which might en-
title them to a reversal or appeal from
a conviction. This effort has not met
with any success as yet. Argot, the

Bole faction came out second-best. A
resolution which, if passed, would have
indorsed Mr.. Bryant, stirred up such
cyclone of opposition that MIR. Bole did
not dare to test the question, and the
meeting was adjourned before it
came to vote. But several men got
chances to do some talking. Among
the takers were Messrs. Burnes, Gray,
Wedge, Winchell, Boyd and Silas Fore
man. They gave it out that they had
no sympathy with the tactics of Mr..
Bole in the convention In shutting out
the voice of one-half of the delegation,
and the action on the part of the Bole
faction was characterized as gag tactics,
Mr. Bryant was at the meeting and
made speech, in which he said, in sub
stance, that he was in reality repub-
lican and was willing to train with that
crowd. Editor BOle found that the SEN
timent against him was too strong, and
behind a motion to adjourn he and his
forces beat hasty retreat.
