UPROAR IN THE HOUSE.

Beginning tho Battle on the National
 Election BilL WASHINGTON, June 26.-The debate on the National Election bill, which began in tho House after the Silver bill had been disposed of, on the report from the Committee on Rules fixing the time for consideration of the bill, promises to be one of the most heated in years. The wAy-in which it was inaugurated is . fair promise of what is te follow. MT. Cannon, from tho Committee on Rules in the House, reported back 2 substitute for the resolution introduced by MT. Lodge of Massachusetts,, setting apart i've days of the present week for the consideration of the National Elec- tion bill, The substitute read: Resolved, That immediately after l the passage of this bill (the Silver bilD the House will proceed to consider the House bill Ii, ,046 (ths National Election bilD until July 9, at two o'clock, whom cred as ordered on tho bill and any pending amendments and on the sub stituts for the whole bill, which the members in charge shall have the right to offer.
 "That during the last two days amendments may be offered to any part | of the bill in the House, with debate under the Ave minute rule. That this shall not interfereswith general appro- priation bills."
 No sooner had the resolution been read than MT. Springer was on his feet with . motion to adjourn, and MT. En- Ice of Tennessee shouted: ;'This Is a bill to revolutionize tho Government" i"
 MT. McMillin wanted to know ifEgen. tlemen would be given . chance to offer amendme ents to any section.
 MT. Cannon replied that that might require thirty to sixty days time.
 At, this point several members wore on their feet shouting to be heard and at the request of Speaker Reed the Ser. geant-at-Arms came forward with the great mace and order was restored.
 MT. Springer moved to table the reso. lution. On a yea and nay vote this mo tion was lost-yeas 116, nays 133.
 It was then arranged to meet at il o'clock for the six days during which the debate is to continue.

 Opinion.
 WASHINGTON, Juno 26.-The House, by . vote of 151 to l35, determined to dis agree with the Senate amendments to the Silver bill. and ordered thata joint conference committee be- appointed to bring about . compromiss. Twenty three hard money Democrats voted with tho Republicans to crush the bill, while nineteen Republicans joined with tho Democrats in declaring for free oninage.
 MT. Morse of Massachu usetts led off in the debate against free coinage, de- claring the Senate bill to be 0 new out break of the fiat money or greenback craze. He argued that tho only bene- 1ciaries would be the bullion owners. MT. Peters, of Kansas, attacked the statement that the United States, under free coinage, would be made the dump ing ground for the silver of the world as theoretical and illusionary. After hours of flibustering MT. Bland moved that the House concur in | the Senate amendment. Occupants ot the crowded galleries watched the re- suit with intense interest. When the Speaker announced the result, cheers broke forth from the Republicans. All the Senate amendments were declared stricken out. Speaker Reed was author l tZed to choose 8 conference committed to consult with @ similar body from tho other branch of Congaess.

No Yellow Fever in GS0rRia.

WASHINGTON, June 28.-The report telegraphed from Brunswick, Ga., to the effect that Dick Glasgow, whose death occurred there on the 23d inst. died of yellow fever, is not correct. Glasgow's death was from consumption. There is no foundation whatever for the report that there was @ case of yellow fever in that city, and it is 6 mystery as to how the story originated The City Council, City Physician, Health Officer and other officials, had 6 conference yesterday and authorized 6 complete denial of the story to be telegraphed to all sections of the country.

The Federal Election Bill.

WASHINGTON, June 26.-Senator Petit grew of South Dakota, an intense Re- publican, doubts whether the Election bill can pass the Senate on account of the disposition of Democrats to talk away the time of the session and defeat final vote.

A little aside from the gravel-path stood @ broken sun-dial, the long grass climb ing about its base, and clinging to it's worn and crumbling pedestal.
 It is an uninteresting sketch-to a stranger, Miss Chester. I did not even paint it from nature"
 The voice was only Mir. Spendir's, but Lima started as if it had reached her from the church porch, or the grave upon which her eyes were fixed.
 "From memory, I suppose p asked Sir Neil, glancing at the sketch becauie Lima did so, but with intense careless ness; guessing nothing of how this and future history of his house.
 "Yes, from memory-the memory ol description given me many years ago, answered the artist, without glancing at Sir Neil.
 "You must have thought long and much of it," remarked the baronet, wishing this stupid call was over.
 Then Fitz Spendir looked for the first time full into his face-into the lazy, handsome Saxon face-and answered, with ferce and savage fash of short lived passion in his eyes: '1 think a good deal about it still. II you ever chance to see the place, hope you will recognize it again" "Ohl readily" answered Sir Neil, noticing nothing odd in the speech e1 the speaker, "Though painted from memory, it possesses reality enough for that" And then he opened the door, and stood upon the step waiting, and l pondering how he could arrange to walk beside Lima along the quiet, shad. l owy lane.

INDIAN HOSTILITIES.
Claim That Reports From Eastern Montana

Claim That Reports From Eastern Montana
Are Largely Sensational.
ST. PAUL, June 12.-General Ruger. Com
mander Of the Department of Dakota, has
advices from Tongue diver, Custer and
Keogh that the Indians are excited over a
shortage of subsistence and that the set
tiers are alarmed, but he had no nforma-
tion of an uprising and does not believe in
the number of murders reported, The four
companies of cavalry at Tongue River will
be re-enforced by three of infantry TO-
morrow. General Ruger says the military
on the ground can easily cope with the In
dians.
BILLINGS (Mont.). June 12.-There are
reports that man named Mayer was killed
by Indians at Tongue River. The Indians
are killing cattle by the hundred. Reports
from Rosebud County say three ranches
were burned, and at other ranches the
houses were shot into. A posse OF cowboys
left Rosebud last evening to drive the In
dans back on the reservation, regardless Of
the military.
HELENA (Mont), June 12.-The reports of
the threatened Indian hostilities in Eastern
Montana are highly sensational. The ac-
counts received implicated the CheyeDnes
in the depredations on cattle herds. The
only muTderous crime committed is the kill
ing Of Robert Ferguson, foreman of the
Ramsay Cattle Company, May 9th. The
guilty Indians were surrendered and Jailed,
and are awaiting trial at Miles City The
recent movements of the band of Cheyennes
led to the suspicion that they are making
ready to 20 on the warpath. The military
took prompt measures to check an outbreak
If meditated. Governor Toole said this
afternoon that he had an officer at Miles
City who didn't seem to share in the fears
Of trouble. There are soldiers enough TO
cope with any Indians meditating mischief
In Custer County The opinion mere is the
Cheyennes will be kept in control without
bloodshed
