The Naturalization Law.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-Representa-
tive Seney, on behalf of himself, and
Collins Mass and Buckalew, to-day
submitted, from the COMMITTEES on Ju.
dietary, minority report on the natural
izaiian bill introduced last month by
Oates. The report cites the provisions
OF the present laws on the subject, and
says that there is no necessity for max.
ing changes. The report proceeds to
discuss the bill, and says that obviously
its intent is to discourage the immigra
tion of aliens into this country, and the
minority thinks there can be no doubt il
the bill be enacted into Law, that it will
operate in many cases as denial of citi
zenship TO aliens.

THE LAST OF pIGGOTr.
He Blows His Brains Out When
Arrested in Madrid.

LONDON, March 1.-The description OF
the man who committed suicide in Ma
drid, tallies with that of the man who
called at the Hotel des Deux Mondes in
Paris after Piggott's flight. The suicide
is undoubtedly Piggott. He doubtless
assumed the name of Ronald Ponsonby
because the initials sponded with
those of his baggage.
LONDON, March / "A dispatch from
Madrid to the Times says: The arrest OF
the suicide was made in consequence OF
a telegram from the British Foreign
office.
"Ponsonby" arrived from Paris Tues
day morning. His only baggage was q
small handbag. Soon after his arrival
he sent a telegraphic dispatch to London.
z The Standard says that it is able to con-
firm the statement that the suicide was
Piggott. When arrested he took the stu
alton coolly and then.threw the officers
off the scent. With the excuse that he
wished to get his overcoat, ne retired to
an alcove and there shot himself. He
died instantly. His head was terribly
disfigured.
