WILD sCENEs.TN THE HOUSE.
A Tremendous Uproar" Caused by the
Refusal to Entertain Motion to Adjourn.

The Speaker refused TO entertain M
springer's motion to adjourn and stated that
ne would not recognize even ordinary parlia-
mentary motions if they we're used with view
to obstructing business.
Mr.. Springer appealed from the decision and
demanded to be heard, but Mr.. Mckinley was
recognized TO move to table the appeal Mr..
springer protested wildly, and was seconded
uproar ensued.
mr. Perkins Of Kansas tainted the demo-
Gratis with disgraeeful conduct, and a number
OF the democrats responded in kind.
The Speaker directed the roll to be called,
ana the clerk proceeded to do so. Mr.. Springer
meanwhile denouncing the Speakers action
and continuing to shout out his remonstrance
and defiance as the roll call proceeded Before
the clerk had gotten through the BIS OF the
list, however, Mr.. Springer sank back ex-
hausted into his seat amid the jeers of the re-
publicans.
The call then proceeded, at least partial order
prevailing, while the democrats we're consult
ing earnestly in groups
THE DEMoCRA rs AGAIN REFRArNED FROM VOTING
but the Speaker sat cooily CHANGING over the
Democratic side, now and then checking off a
member whose name was called and who re-
fused TO respond The vote resulted-yeas I6S,
nays o, and the Speakers decision was sus-
tanned
MR.. CRISP TO THE FRONT.
Again the Speaker refused to recognize Mr.
Springer to put motion to adjourn and Mr..
Daizell was recognized TO cali up the election
case.
MIR. Crisp endeavored to raise the question
of consideration and tried to appeal from the
decision of the chair, but the Speaker refused
to entertain the appeal
Mr.. Crisp denied the right Of the chair to
class his motion dilatory motion, and pro-
tested against the Speakers action, which, he
said, was in disregard of all parliamentary rule.
MR.. DALzEIL HAS THE FLOOR.
Mr.. DalzeIl then took the floor and began to
present the views of the majority of the cleo
ton committee on the contested election case
of Smith against Jackson.
PEACE REIGNs AT LAST.
The democrats showed disposition to inter-
rupt Mr.. Dalzell, but Mr.. Crisp GA promptly
quelled this and demanded a hearing Of the
gentleman from Pennsylvania.
So at last, after three days contest, the re-
publicans have succeeded in getting the House
to consider the election case and matters have
quieted down.

WICHITA, KAN, Jan. 31.-J. B. Armstrong.
cashier of the Sumner County bank at Conway
Springs, thirty miles southwest Of here, was
attacked yesterday afternoon by mob of one
hundred men and came near being lynched.
He was connected with a sugar mill at
the place and the company had promised the
farmers certain prices for cane and the en-
ployes in the factory certain wages. The farm
ers claim that S2S, 900 is yet due them, while
the employees claim 5000 overdue wages.
A crowd collected in front Of the bank and
invited Armstrong out He complied and
tried to talk the matter over. The crowd became
so enraged that Armstrong was picked up
and thrown into the middle of the
street. where everybody who could reach
him gave him kick. 1t was proposed to
hang him to tree near by, but cooler-headed
men finally prevailed. Armstrong; injuries
will probably prove fatal

A Lister from Commissioner Douglass

Commissioner Douglass was to have spoken
tonight at the Foundry church on the Sunday
rest bill, but owing to a previous engagement
sent the following letter instead: 81 discovered
after you left yesterday that had previous
engagement for this evening. The
Commissioners are in favor of the
Sunday rest law that will comport with
the laws OF the states generally in that object
We do not favor a law, as has been intimated
that will punish a citizen for kissing his own
wife that day. But a reasonable law is emf
nently necessary.
Though the attorney for the District an
rounced some months since that there Was no
lazy to punish for secular labor on the Sab
bath to the credit of our people We have not
heard of any effort to take advantage of this

A Fight at the Treasury Door.

There was fight in front of the Treasury
building today. The participants were James
Z. Clements, commemorative attorney of Alex
andria, and Martin Flannery, the stone cutter
in this city. Fiannery, it appears, had a con-
tract under the War department for erecting
a wall around part of the Arlington estate
and had in his employ a number of Nirginans
These VirginianS have not, they claim, re-
ceived pay that is due them from Mr. Flannery
and they employed MIR. Clements to act as their
attorney TO collect from Mr.. Elannery. Mr..
Clements accosted Mr.. Flannery in the Treasury
building, and the latter preferring not to be
spoken to on such matters there Mr.. Clements
said he would see him outside. When Mr..
Flannery was leaving the Treasury Mr. Glenn
ents spoke to him and Mr.. Flannsry's response
was such that fight resulted. Mr.. Clements
received a blow over the eye which cut the
flesh. There was an exciting struggle before
the men were separated. They will be called
to answer a charge of affray in the PoliceCourt
An Insane Negro With a Bowie Knife.
There was a colored man named Richard
Jennings in the Police Court this morning
charged with carrying Bowie" knife. The
prisoners feet were both missing. and from the
evidence offered Judge Miller thought the
prisoner was both insane and dangerous.
Policeman Acton arrested him at the 9th street
depot because Of his repeated threats to kill
somebody.
They have been gambling me through
Lloyd's express" he said. II have been init
ated in the municipal government of Mar, land
and they are working against me through the
tobacconists and other business men,. They
took my pistol away from me in Baltimore and
when got here they took my knife from me-"
What did they do with you in Baltimore?"
inquired the judge.
''Gave me thirty days." was his reply.
Judge continued the prisoner, "these ex-
pert gamblers are gambling me through the
colored Odd Fellows and Masons They are
working against the Catholics and they have
broken me up in my business"
"Who, the Odd Fellows or Masons?" asked
the judge.
1.-The Catholics" replied the prisoner.
'What do you carry this knife for?" asked
the judge.
These boys have been annoying me-" he
answered, "andI carried it to balance myself
with"
.'You wanted to kill one of them" said the
judge. That's what You call balancing your
self"
The Judge instructed the attorney to file an
information against the prisoner for assault
and on that he was sent to Jail, where he can be
examined
