Com mander Coghlan to be Investi-
gated for His Recent Utterances.
WASHINGTON, March 5.-The Secretary
of the Navy to-day ordered conrt-martial
to convene at the Mare Island navy yard on
March 13 for the trial of Commander
Joseph B. Coghlan on two charges. one of
conduct prejudicial to good order and naval
discipline and the other for violation of the
naval regulations. The specifications allude
to letter written by Commander Ccghlan
to the editor Of the Vallejo Chronicle criti-
ciZing the administration of naval affairs
in general and that of the navy yard at
Mare Island in particular.
DETAIL OF THE COURT.
The detail of the court is as follows: Com

Remy, Watson and Philip; Commanders
Kempff and Nicoll Ludlow; and Lieut..

The navy department will take no action
in regard to the charges preferred by Com
mander McCalla against Ensign Kline and
Chief Engineer Entwisle of the Enterprise
until after it has received the report of the
court of inquiry in the case of Commander
McCalla. The facts developed by that in
yestigation will determine the future action
of the department., and what, if any officers
of the Enterprise will be tried by court

CATE COOLLY KICKED OUT
THE VOTE OF HIS CONSTITUENTS
COMPLETELY IGNORED.

Speaker Reed Had to Crack His Whip
Very Persistently to Garry His
Point-Two or Three of the Repub-
licans too High-Minded to Lend
Themselves to the Outrage.
WASHINGTON, March 5.-Speaker Reed
had to crack his whip very frequently TO-
day to seat Mr.. Featherstone. Mr.. Cate.
the sitting member, had over 1000 major
ity in a vote of over $1,000, aud was
clearly entitled to the seat. So plain was
this that in making up the lists of those con-
testees who were to be ousted the republican
managers did not at first include Mr.. Gates
name. But finding the republicans disposed
to do as they were told the leaders finally
determined to put Mr.. Cate out and put Mr..
Featherstone in. They would have had less
difficulty, perhaps, in declaring the election
void and the seat vacant but this would
have broug ht Mr.. Cate back here in sixty
days. So they insisted that, Mr.. Cate being
ousted, Mr.. FeatherstoDe should be seated.
A FEW REBEL.
At this several high-minded republicans
rebelled, Mr.. Hill of Illinois wanted to get
up and make a speech, setting forth the
reasons of his rebellion. This the repub-
ucanS would not permit, DuU WIN Cne
help of the democrats he got leave to print
them in the Record. Mr.. Stewart of Yer
mont could not be persuaded to vote with
the republicans. Mr.. Cutcheon of Michigan
was only brought into line by being re-
minded that Mr.. Reed had made him
chairman of the committee on
military affairs, and that as
such it was his duty to
stand by the chairman of the election COM
mittee. All day long Messrs. Reed, Nc
Kinley, and Cannon labored with these and
other rebels, but the best they could get from
most of them was promise not to vote
with the democrats The only thing Mr..
Reed didn't have to do was to count a
quorum. The democrats voted in the hope
the republicans they were counting on
would help them defeat Mr.. Featherstone.
Carlisle and the other leaders severely
censure a dozen democrats who were alb
sent and impaired to-day, when the vote on
the election case was taken.
MAY COME UP IN THE SENATE.
While the Senate was still in executive
session yesterday afternoon, and just after
the nomination of Mr.. Caldwell of Arkan-
sas to be United States circuit judge had
been confirmed, Mr.. Breckinridge of Ar
kansas, speaking in the House on the Ar
kansas contested election case, said, refer
ring TO Mr.. Caldwell "a gentleman who
has just been confirmed to circuit judge
ship Of the United States" As this appears
in his published speech in the Congressional
Record this morning the Senate may take
some notice of it,

RIVERS AND HARBORs.
The Senate Commerce Committee
Favor of Large Appropriations.

The Senate Commerce Committee in
Favor of Large appropriations.
WASHINGTON, March 5.-A majority of
the Senate commerce committee, including
Chairman Frye, strongly favor Senator
Gorman's bill to appropriate money enough
to complete the harbor improvements at
Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Balti-
more, Charleston, and Savannah, or at
least as much as can be profitably
expended in two years. Gen. Cosey,
chief of engineers, whom Senator
German was instructed by the
committee,to consult, lis earnestly in favor
of it. He says such an arrangement would
save the government just one-third on the
work to be done. 1t is not improbable that
the commerce committee will substl-
tute the German bill for the reg
ular river and harbor bill when
the matter comes to the Senate; meanwhile
the House committee on rivers and harbors
is preparing big bill on the regular lines.
This committee has agreed upon an aver
age OF 40 per cent. of the estimates as rule
for its appropriations for the new projects
contemplated. This rule would bring the
total appropriation up to over 10000, ,000
1t is by no means certain that the House
committee will be able to defeat the at
tempt to substitute the German bill.

CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.
The Majority of the House Committee
to Exonerate the Commissioners.

The Majority OF the House Committee
to Exonerate the Commissioners
WASHINGTON, March 5.-The House civil
service reform committee has almost fin
ished its investigation of the charges against
the civil service commission. There will
probably be two reports from the commit
tee on the investigation. One, which will
be signed regardless of party by all but two
or three members, will exonerate the COM
mission, as such, entirely, and will exoner-
ate its individual members from all charges
of unlawful conduct, but will criticize
Commissioner Lyman for indiscreet con-
duct in connection with the promotion of
his brother-in-law, Mr.. Campbell, and the
appointment of his daughter.
AN AMENDMENT PROPOSED.
The report will also suggest an amend
ment of the civil service act which will ex-
tend the scope and increase the powers of
the commission, for example to the extent
of authorizing it in its investigations to
compel the attendance and testimony of
witnesses, and the production of books
and papers. The minority report
will condemn the commission, which it will
describe as an anrmaly; will recommend
that it be reduced to one commissioner and
a return to the spoils system.
This report would just suit Speaker Reed,
who does not like civil service reform, but
the House will not dareto adopt it.

Many People Driven from Their Homes
in the Lower Part of the City.
NASHVILLE, TENN, March 5.-Heavy
rains and floods for the past two weeks
throughout the south, especially in Ken
lucky, Tennessee and Alabama, have
caused high water in all the streams and
rivers and considerable damage by over
flows and backwater. The lower portion of
this city is submerged. forcing
many people to vacate their
homes, located In the inundated por-
tions OF the city. The railroads,
although at one time threatened, have
passed the danger line. Through traffic has
not been much lmpeded, but the swollen
streams and the impossible condition of the
country roads have virtually prevented the
movement Of the local traffic which, of
necessity has affected the business of the
railroads for the past ten days The loss Of
the Tennessee river bridge at Johnsonville,
by the Nashville and Chattanooga road, has
afforded the only serious impediment to
through travel, through Memphis trains
being now run over the Louisville and
Nashville via Guthrie. making about the

ENGLAND's IRISH DEBATE.
The Failure to show up the League
Books Under Consideration,

The Failure TO snow up the League
Books Under Consideration.
LONDON. March 5.-The debate on the
amendment to Mr.. Smiths motion relative
to the adoption by the House Of Commons
of the Parnell commission report, moved by
Mr.. Gladstone on Monday, was resumed In
the House to-day. John MacNeall, home
rule member from South Donegal, said that
if the commission was intended to merely
elucidate the report, the government, by
friendly agreement with the opposition,
would have selected judges agree.
able to both sides. He believed
that the appointment of the commission
was merely an attempt by the government
to stir up hatred against the Parnellites.
He charged the government with allowing
Pigott to escape, as it had allowed Lord
Arthur Somerset TO escape, for political
purposes.
Sir Charles Lewis, conservative, admitted
that the report proved very little that was
not known before, but said it proved what
was before disputed. Men had undergone
long terms of transportation for less than
had been proved against some of the defend
ants before the Parnell commission. It was
strange, he declared, that Mr.. Dillon had
gone to Australia without testifying before
the commission.
DILLON GAVE THEM A CHANCE.
Thomas Sexton, home ruler, said that
Mr.. Dillon had submitted himself TO the
commission prior to his departure for Aus
tralia, and inquired whether the Judges
wished to question him.
Mr.. Lewis admitted that Mr.. Sexton was
right in his statement concerning Mr.. Dill
lon, but he commented strongly on the alb.
sence of the leagues books Mr.. Lewis
accused Mr.. Campbell, Mr.. Parnells pri-
vate secretary, of removing the books OF
the league.
A lively passage here ensued. MIR. Camp
bell declared that he last saw the books in
Liverpool, and, so far as he knew, the same
books had been produced before the com.
mission. Mr.. Lewis contended that every
charge that had been disproved would have
been proved if the books had been produced.
SEXTON OFFERS TO EXPLAIN.
Mr.. Sexton said he wished to explain on
behalf of Mr.. Parnell why they refused to
place at the disposal Of their opponents a
statement of the finances of the party.
MIR. Lewis asked if this was a Legitimate
explanation which had been overlooked in
the report. The Parnellites had blankly
refused to accede to the application for the
production of books before the commission.
Ii they had been produced they would have
shown before all other evidence whether the
respondents were honest men or criminals.
James Bryce, liberal, adjourned the
debate. He argued that the limited views
OF the commissioners reduced the value OF
their conclusion to a very low point. Thi:
omission furnished a complete reason why
their decisions could not be accepted as an
adequate treatment of the subject.

ents Still Goes On.
WASHINGTON, March Sat Ais o'clock
this afternoon the Senate went into execu-
tive session to further consider the subject
OF executive sessions. The entire time of
the Senate until adjournment, at about 6
o'clock, was occupied with discussion upon
the legal points involved in the resolutions
presented by Mr.. Dolphs special commit
Zee, having in view the punishment of news
paper correspondents for contempt. The
discussion was engaged in by Messrs Evarts,
Edmunds, George, Teller, Vest, and others,
and 1t Is said chat no two of them agreed
exactly as TO the power of the Senate to
punish for contempt.
PREVIOUS CASES CITED.
Mr.. Dolph read from the record of the
proceedings in the case of Ramsdell and
White, VINO were imprisoned by the Senate
In 1873 and released after time, it is said,
In Difference to public opinion, to,prove that
correspondent who procured copies of
executive documents and published them
was amenable to the writ of the Senate.
The case Of Hallet Kilbourne, which has
been mentioned frequently in connection
with the present proceeding. was also
quoted to sustain, inferentially, thesDosition
OF the advocates of the resolution.
CAUSE OF THE FAILURE.
In this case it was said the prosecution
failed for the reason that the House of
Representatives had endeavored to compel
him to produce books of his private bust
ness. Soon after the discussion began
several senators left the chamber. Others
soon followed, and when the Senate ad-
journed there were not more than twenty
members present.

BERLIN. March 6.-Baron Won Berlepsch,
the Prussian minister of commerce, has
been instructed to draft for submission to
the Landtag bills looking to a settlement of
the labor Questions, based on the opinions of

Pending the passage of the bills, provisional
measures will be introduced for the pro-
lection OF the working men. Among these
measures will be one providing for the
formation of workingmen's committees.
The Cologne Gazette says that at the

ment will demand fresh military credits,
andswill again introduce the anti-socialist
bill which was rejected by the last Reich
stag. Many papers, including the Klien

popular discomfort over its colonial policy,
