HoUsE.-The House remained in session all night, doing nothing after 3 o'clock but simply killing time. No motions were sub- mitted, no points of order raised, no parlia- mentary inquiries submitted. At daybreak short informal recess was taken to allow the janitor to put the chamber in order. Several roll calls were made during the day, during one of which Mir. Anderson of Kansas, who was invigorating himself by shave and 8 shampoo, caused much merriment among the observers by suddenly emerging with his drawn around his neck to answer to his name. Shortly after 1 o'clock consent was given to Mr. White of New York to have read the g o'clock official bulletin is sued by Dr. Barker, which noted an improvement in ex-Senator Conkling's condition. The read- ing was listened to with close attention, and at it's close round of prolonged applause arose from both Democrats and Republicans.
 At o'clock MT. Taulbee, of Kentucky, called attention to the fact that the House had been constructively in session for eight days and continuously in session for over twenty-seven hours. In the interest, there fore, of good health and good nature he asked unanimous consent that Q recess be taken until II :45 tomorrow.
 MT. O'Ferrall, of Virginia, objected and the House again sank into 8 state of inno- cuous desuetude.
 After various unsuccessful attempts to ob- tain such result Mr. Taulbee at 2 o'clock asked unanimous consent for recess until 11:45 tomorrow, and there being no opposi- tion the recess was taken.
 The clerk announced the call for Demo- cratic caucus at o'clock MT. Taulbee pro- tested against a call being ordered, but the call was found to be in proper form and the caucus was ordered

And Captures willis Lee, Who Tries
 a BlackmailiRg Scheme on a Man
 Aged SeventY.FOur Years.
 Willis Lee was arrested late yesterday af- ternoon by Detective Brewer for attempted Gold street. Lee is the fellow who was ar rested some time ago charged with bigamy and in the criminal side of the Superior court last week was discharged.
 Attempts have been made, it is alleged, by two or three others of the gang to which Lee belongs to blackmail Mir. Ward, and at last Lee took it into his hands.
 MT. Ward is man "A years old. He has an adopted daughter. Lee claimed that the two had had improper relations with each other. He visited MT. Ward and told him that he wanted $s0 to keep silent about the matter. He finally said he would take $50. MT. Ward saw it was an attempt at black mail, and so told Lee that he had no money just then but invited him to call yesterday afternoon.
 MT. Ward went at once to Chief Bollman and told his story. Detective Reilly was put at work on the case.
 Yesterday afternoon Lee called at Wards house. The two had some talk about the than $50. Finally he was told by MT. Ward to call again as he did not have the money then.
 As Lee was about to leave Detective Reilly stepped out of closet where he had been concealed and heard all, and arrested Lee on the charge of attempted blackmail. He was locked up at the police station.

 MIDDLETowN, April 15.-The committee of fifteen which has been trying Rev. Charles W. Millen of Brooklyn tor alleged immoral acts said to have been committed in Boston and Brooklyn reported this evening that the charges and specifications were not sustained, but that he had been guilty of improper and unministeria1 conduct and he is censured was voted that his Character do pass" Rev. Dr. Pullman, counsel for the accused, moved that Millen have leave to withdraw from the ministry, which motion was adopt ed unanimously. MT. Millen was present and said he would surrender his commission and parchment through Dr. Pullman. The accused burst into tears and through his counsel said hsSEould remain g member of the church and would endeavor to lead such circumspect Christian life in the future as will prove him to be faithful soldier of the cross. The conference then adjourned sine die.
 The charges against the accused associated with Boston were, as reported in New York, that he met at Crescent Beach Millie Joy, young woman of doubtful reputation, and that the next day he sought her out and vis- tied her. Parshley, who in Brooklyn had an altercation with Pastor Millen, resulting in the formers being deposed of his class leadership there, sent on detective to Bos- ton to watch Millen and Millie Joy. The de- testive found Mi1lie Joys roommate, girl named Crevelin. Out of the stories told by the two girls sensational reports were made up, highly spiced and colered. which were not proven before the committee, and part of which the girls themselves denied. Still the committee found that there was enough in the charges to clearly warrant the finding made

lingss Sick Chamber.
 NEW YORK, April 11.-At 3:15 Dr. Barker issued the following official bulletin: "Nr. Conkling is weaker and has lost ground since morning. There is still hope unless some complication sets in. The patient has taken some nourishment in the form of milk" Dr. Barker said Mr. Cenkling was suffering from meningitis.
 At p. m. it was reported that Mir. Conk ling had sunk into stupor. This report created considerable alarm about the hotel. At 4:45 Dr. Barker arrived at MT. Conkling's rooms and at 5:05 left. He said MT. Conk- ling had been sleeping quietly since p. m Dr. Barker denied that MT. Conkling was in a state of stupor. He said his pulse was S4 and his temperature 100 1-5. His tempera- ture has varied about two degrees during the day It was 10e at p. m The doctor said he did not apprehend any danger within twenty four hours vnless some complications occur Edward Stokes came from the house at 6:25 and said MT. Conkling was resting quietly. At 7:30 Dr. Anderton announced that MT. Conkling was still sleeping
 At 9:15 Drs. Barker and Sands finished consultation. Dr. Barker said the patient had had 8 sound, healthy, deep sleep from 3 until S:16 pm. and that his mental cendi- tion was excellent. The doctor said the sleep was good for the reason that it took away all strain from the nerves. The chances of the senator's recovery were improved. TweAty-four hours ago his chances were one in one hundred, now the chances are one in twenty-five that he will recover. He has been steadily improving for four hours. The patient again went to. sleep after the de- parture of the doctors. They will not return until morning. Dr. Hartley will remain with the patient till night.
 NEw VoRv Anril 19-Doctor Hartlay is, sued the following bulletin at 12:30 o'clock this morning: Senator Codkling's condition has changed slightly for the worse. His tem- psrature is one degree more than it was at 9 P. m., when it was 1s0 degrees, and his pulse beats six faster to the minute than it did at that hour, when it was ninety. This indi- cates return of the delirious fever that he has had

Against High License.

At the prohibition meeting last evening Rev. Lewis Henry Keller gave very inter- erting talk on high license. He said: On the economic side of the question everything is against high license and in favor of prohi- bition. Senator Blair's figures prove the great excess of the cost over income, and demonstrate the fallacy of the economic plea for high license.
 The claim that high license acts as g re- pressive measure is also shown to be falla- cy by the facts. Under high license in Chica- go there has been an actual increase of 9s3 in the number of places where liquor is sold, since 1883. The editor of New York paper is claiming that the effect of high license in Philadelphia will be a wonderful victory for that system. But if ali that is claimed for it is accomplished, the fifteen hundred saloons lone for each block in the city) which will still be in existence, will surely be enough so that everyone who wish es to get drunk in the City of Brotherly Love can do so without any trouble whatever.
