REED AND RANDALL.
A Sharp Controversy In Which the
Latter Is Worsted.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30.-There was short
but severe encounter in the House yesterday
between Messrs. Reed and Randall in which
the latter was badly worsted. The item in
controversy was an appropriation for the
new building for the library of Congress-
The appropriation committee had recon-
mended only 100000, although the chief Of
engineers had asked twice that sum in order
ito permit the work to go on 10 the most
economical manner" Mr.. Reed moved to
increase the amount to 81 600 900 and to In
sert a proviso that the building should
proceed in accordance with General
Casey's modification of the original plan, the
total cost Of the building not to exceed
SO, ,000, 900. Economist Holman made a
point of order that it proposed to change ex-
isting laws, and Chairman Randall went so
far as to declare that Mr.. Reed was trying
by indirect means to evade or change exist
ing law which limited the cost of the build
ing TO S4,000,000, and to adopt plan which
would ultimately cost S6,0O0,0O0 The Maine
statesman in spirited speech declared that
he was trying not only to save money, hut to
obtain a Library Building worthy of the
country. He derided the idea of economy
which assisted on spending S4.0OO.0O0
to build building which, at the present
ratio of increase, would become too small
for the library at the end of fifty four years,
when, by spending 90 per cent more, q build
| ing could be had which would be sufficient
| for all the needs Of the library during the
next 134 years, and would be- also, a struc-
| ture in which Americans could feel an hon
| est pride.
or course the chairman Of .he committee
| of the whole, Mr.. Dockery, sustained HOl-
mans point of order and the inadequate
amount for the faulty plan was granted.

THE AMEs AND MORSE.
Repairs on the Big Schooner-The
Big Tow Boat to be Replaced.

Boston, Jan. 30-The Governor Ames,
the great fve=masted schooner WHICH was
dismasted and driven to the Georges fishing
bank in the December gale, is reftting at
Constitution wharf. She is now nearly ready
for sea her lower masts have been put in at
exactly the same place as before. The top
masts are now being put in place.
1t will be remembered that three of her
masts fell upon the vessel, and so were saved
with their rigging and light spars, The sales
were taken in before the masts fell, and
these are to be stretched on the new masts
Thus the loss has been smaller than was an
ticipated. ali this material having been used
in newly rigging the vessel. The masts are are
to be three feet shorter than BEFORE so that
the old rigging may be used, and to decrease
The leverage Of the masts. This shortening
adds to the appearance Of the vessel.
The owners of the Governor Ames and the
Morse Transportation Company were unable
to agree upon what is an equitable amount
for salvage of the vessel. The owners offer a
much smaller sum than the Morse Company
will accept, so the latter company has
brought libel for salvage in the United
States District Court: The counsel are
Dabney for the plaintlii; ana Carver for the
ordinary interest. The rumor that the
Ames was to be changed into coal barge is
incorrect.

A DAYS HISTORY.
More Fighting In the Streets Of New
York.

New YORK. Jan. 30.-The first car over
the Grand street route started at 724 and
went to the ferry where it was soon filed
with passengers, mostly ladies. The car
then started. At Goerck street a stop was
made to remove a truck. A crowd Of strik-
ers gathered and several bricks were thrown.
Things looked bad, but Inspector Byrnes
with squad Of police scattered the mob af-
ter making one arrest No further trouble
was made and the car reached the end Of its
route. On the return trip several wagons
were placed across the track but were re-
moved. Further on several large drays and
piles of stones were encountered which effec-
tually blocked the way for some time, but
they. were finally removed. Crowds were
continually assembling about the car and
were very menacing but squads of police
scattered them.
The first Fourth avenue car left the depot
at 10 o'clock. The driver was the same one
who drove a car that was attacked yesterday.
He was cheered by the bystanders as. he
nearly an hour later the car came back after
making the round trip.
At Bleeker and Carmine streets the strik-
ers overturned Sixth avenue car. There
were only three policemen present and they
were overpowered. The police were rough
ly handled and one of them discharged his
pistol into the crowd. A reserve squad ar
rived and the mob dispersed. The police
were stoned but no one was hurt. Several
arrests were made.
The superintendent of the Ninth avenue
line stated today that his road would not
send outs car until the trouble was all over
He did nOt care to incite riot The men
had been forced to leave their work without
any reason for it and he was not going t0lin-
crease the complications.
