BROWN FAVORs BLAIR's BILL.

be Feared.

He Points Out Why Veto Need Not
be Feared.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S-The Blair educa-
tional bill was taken up in the Senate to-
day and Mr.. Brown addressed the Senate
in support of it, stating that its defeat
would be received with great regret
throughout the whole Southern section of
the coutry. The Senator from Missouri
(Mr. Vest had, i'll his able speech against the
bill held over the Senate in teTTOren1 the
Presidential veto if the bill should pass.
He did not understand the Senator to say
that ne had any information or knowledge
as to the Presidents intention in the matter,
but supposed that he received his impress
sion from his knowledge of the convictions
of the President usually on questions of pub
lie character But he [Mr Brown could
not concur with his friend from Mis-
souri, on the possibility of a veto.
SUPPORTED BY CABINET OFFICERS.
Two of the men whom the President had
called to his Cabinet, Messrs. Lamar and
Garland. had supported the bill while they
were members of the Senate. The Senator
from Indiana (Mr Voorhees,, who had re-
Gently made an able and eloquent defense
of the Presidents administration, indorsed
and sustained its constitutionality. If,
therefore, the President might
be judged by his actions and
by his appointment to high position of men
who unequivocally sustained the constitu-
tionality of the bill, there was nothing to be
feared from an executive veto. But even
If there was it was the duty of the Senate
TO act upon Its own judgment. He had no
doubt about either the ccnstitutionality or
necessity and sound policy of the measure.
BLAIR TAKES THE FLOOR.
Mr.. Blair continued his speech in support
of the bill, reading extensively from COM
munications received by him from teachers
and persons Of influence in the Southern
States. In the course of his speech he com
planned that many newspapers throughout
the country had criticized his bill in an un-
fair and unfriendly manner. After speak
ing for about an hour and half, he yielded
for motion to adjourn, and at 4:50 o'clock

from Ennis, Tex, TO the NelGS, says: "Seven

about ten miles east of Ennis. Two young
women, daughters of William Williams,

were skating on the lake, when the ice gave
way and they sunk in four and-a half feet
of water. Miss Babbitt and two little girls,
aged 8 and IA years, also daughters
of William Williams, who were on
the shore watching the sport were drowned
in attempting to rescue their friends. A
very small child of William Williams also
fell through the ice, but was saved by one
of the drowning young ladies etching and
throwing it out on the ice Young Will
Jams, brother Of the young ladies drowned,
was quarter of mile distant at his house.
He saw the trouble and ran to the assistance
of the unfortunates, but he was
soon overpowered by the struggles
of those who were drowning and he, too,
was drowned. Mrs. Williams, his mother,
made an effort to save them all, but she was
pulled down and would have met the fate of
her children but for the timely aid of her
two daughters, aged 10 and II respectively
These children threw her a rope and sue
ceeded in pulling her ashore. All the bodies
were found together"

this morning DR.. Sewers stated to an AssO-
ciated Press reporter that Speaker Carlisle
rested very well during the night and awoke
this morning considerably refreshed. When
the doctor called at II O'Clock he found him
sitting up in bed eating a light breakfast,
and he seemed TO be in the best OF spirits.
During the visit the Speaker inquired
whether he would be able to keep his At
lanta and Macon engagements on Jan. 23
and -. The doctor replied
that il was quite out Of reason. He might
stand the trip but it would be hazardous in
tbe extreme and advises that the engage
ments be Cancelled as he could not think Of
permitting the fatiguing journey in his de-
hilitated condition. Thus advised the
Sneaker requested the doctor to announce
TO the press that for the reason stated he
would not be able to fill the engagements,
much TO his regret. DR.. Sower' expressed

able time before the Speaker could resume

the journal, the Speaker pro tenn; called
