WASHINGTON, March 5.-There is quite
story connected with the means by
which tho Blair educational bill was
smothered in the House Committee on

met, II was evident TO both President
Cleveland and Speaker Carlisle that the
Blair bill would pass the Senate and be
sent to the House at au early day Every
one knew that II the bill got before the
House il would pass. Mr.. Cleveland had
requested the Speaker not, under any
circumstances, to allow the bill to bo sent
to the White House. The Speaker being
opposed to the bill, and realizing that
II would 70 TO the President
II il ever came before the House for con-
sideration decided to appoint committee
that would smother the bill. Mr. Caud-
Ter, OF Georgia, was entitled To the chair
manship of the Committee on Education.
and when appointed no was impressed
with the importance OF smothcrng the
hill. Mr.. Cleveland also requested Mr..
Gambler not TO allow the bill to get ~ iar
rs the Executive Mansion, and Mr.. Cand'
ler would not agree TO shoulder this rcspon'
sibility,and therefore. In orclertO carry out
the prNarrangcd plan, Speaker Carlisle
packed the committe with seven Democrats
beside the chairman, whom he knew were
unalterably opposed 10 the bill There
were also Two Republicans on the commit
tee who werc known to bc opposed 10 the
Blair bill, but when they found Il In order

iluenco for the bill. Mr.. Chandler In
speaking Of the matter last night said that

cation hut was opposed to certain features
Of the Blair bill, aud knowing that even II
n substitute had ever been reported To the
House, the original bill would have been
offered M an amendment and passed.
Rather than see this lac preferred to see
the bill die on the plan suggested by the
Speaker and the President.
