Proceedings of the House.

WASHINGTON, March 14-Speaker Carlisle re-
stunned his post of duty this morning and was
greeted with round of applause.
"A bill was passed granting right of way
through the Fort Riley military reservation, in
Kansas, to the Kansas Valley Railroad Com
pany.
Mr. OFerral of Virgins, submitted the re-
port of the committee on elections In the Illinois
contested election case of Worthington Va. Post.
Placed on the calendar. 1t contirns the right of
MIR. Post to the seat.
The floor was then accorded to the committee
Mr. McCreary, of Kentucky, called up the
Senate bill fixing the charge for passports at 81.
and it was passed.
A bill was passed appropriating So 900 to en-
able the President to extend to the inhabitants
OF Tanegasima, Japan suitable recognition of
their humane treatment of the survivors of the
crew OF the American bark Cashmere.
Several private bills we're passed, and one
measure, referring to the court of claims the
claim of Hannah j. Jones, executrix of Emanuel
ZONES, gave rise to considerable discussion. The
facts that during the war Emanuel Jones,
a British subject residing in Mobile purchased,
'hith confederate money. number of bales of
Gotten. In April, 1860, the federal army took
possession of Mobile, and guard having been
placed around the warehouse in which the cot
ton was stored, Jones denied admission
thereto. In August the warehouse was burned
and the cotton destroyed.
The claim is for cotton so destroyed.
Mr. Hooker, OF Mississippi and Mr.. Herbert
common justice By the act of the United
States government Jones was deprived of his
power to ship his cotton or to insure 1T, and his
executrix should have opportunity to appear be-
fore the court of claims and present the facts
upon which lie based his claim for relief.
Mr. Hopkins, of Illinois, opposed the BILL and
stated that he would rather Apay the claim of
brave Confederate soldier than that of a shylock
who took advantage of the misfortunes of the
people among whom he lived.
Mr.. Bland thought the claimant had right
to come before Congress for relief. The proper
way was for the claimant TO appeal to the
British government, which would bring the
matter to the attention of the State Department,
If there anything in It,
Mr.. Hooker stated that Mr.. Jones had not
gone South to take advantage of the misfortunes
of the people, but had lived there before the
breaking out OF the war
Mr.. Herbert said that the United States had
provided for the payment of claims of a similar
nature when demanded by the British govern
ment, and the question presented was
whether the United States would not do Justice
to a claimant unless the British government was
behind him to enforce his decree
Mr.. Allen, of Mississippi, inquired whether
Mr.. Jones aided either side during the rebellion
Mr.. Hooker replied that he did not know.
Mr.. Allen--Then that settles the bill for me.
Laughter.
Mr. Hopkins moved to lay the bill on the
table. Pending action the motion, the
House adjourned.

KEEL. In the United States Court has denied the
habeas corpus petition OF the judges OF the St.
Clair county court, thus leaving them in Jail for
the present Suit was commenced in 1882 in
the federal court to collect bonded indebted
ness of $3.50. 900 from St. Clair county. The
county court refused to pay either the principal
or interest. claiming that the debt fraudu-
lent, the bonds having been gwen for aid in the
construction of a railroad in 1870, and which. as
a matter Of fact. has never yet been constructed.
Judgment was rendered against the county.
After long legal contest the county court still
refuses to make levy. and the judges were
held in contempt and have since been confined
in jail. The petition for habeas corpus averred
that the order of the iederal would not
be complied with. inasmuch as the State
law prohibits such tax levy under heavy fine
and forfeiture of Office. Judge Krekel held that
the State had no power to control the juris-
diction of federal court, and refused appli-
cation for appeal II the county court judges

viii be subject to criminal prosecution in the
State court. and refusal to comply with the
mandate of the federal tribunal constitutes
contempt They now in Jail, and counsel
will institute original habeas corpus proceedings
before the United States Supreme Court for
their release.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, March IA dispatch was pub
lished here this evening, from Columbus, o.,
announcing that Representative Mckinley, of
that State, had refused to allow the use of his
name delegate to the Chicago convention,
and that this was the last detection of a promi-
nent Republican from the ranks of Mr.. Sher-
mans supporters. Major Mckinley was
this evening, and in reply, said: II am for Sher-
man for President as earnestly as I ever was,
and the statement that / refused the use of my
name as a delegate to the national convention
is true, but to this extent only. have declined
10 have my name presented for district delegate
from any congressional district / believe that
Sherman will be nominated and elected" Major
Mckinley wants to be delegate at-large from
his State. which would give him State recog-
milton and take him out of the way of other Re-
publicans who want to be delegates from his
district. He says, as second choice, he is ''for
ex-senator Harrison, of Indiana, and that next
to Sherman ne would prefer Harrison to any
other man spoken of for the nomination"
General Grosvenor, another well-known Rep
reseutative from Ohio, was present when Major
Mckinley made this statement, and he, too,
said he preferred Harrison asa second choice;
that Harrison was remarkably strong every
where. The Ohio delegation to Chicago, the
Republicans hero from that State say, will like
II be solid for Sherman, but if there is break
ir will be for Harrison.
