announcing the passage Of a joint resolution
making an appropriation for the base OF the
Lafayette statue having been received. Mr..
McMillin Glenn asked for its immediate pas
sage.
Mr.. Hausen thought that the measure could
wait.
Mr.. McMillin was surprised that any Ameri-
can would object TO a measure doing honor to
Lafayette.
MIR. Haugen suggested that the House should
do justice to the living, then il could do honor
to dead. He. therefore, objected.
ME-. Rowel IlL }, on behalf Of the commit
tee on elections, raised the question of con sid
Grafton against the conference report
On standing vote the result was 4S to 2
against considering the conference report and
Mr.. OFerrall demanded (and the House or
dered) the yeas and nays
MIR. Payson then desired to withdraw the re-
port, but the Speaker ruled that, the yeas and
nays being ordered, this could not be done
The House decided: Yeas 62. nays III, not to
consider the conference report.
MIR. HauRen then called up the election case.
against which Mr.. OFerrall raised the aues-
ton of consideration.
THE DEMOCRATS STEP OUT.
During the roll call nearly all tho democratic
members deserted the chamber, leaving but a
bare dozen present to look out for their inter-
ests.
B fore the announcement of the vote Mr..
O'Ferrall rose and said that he had carefully
kept tally OF the vote. He noticed that upon
the recapitilation the name OF Mr.. Morey of
Ohio was noted az voting in tho affirmative.

IMPORTANT BILLS PENDING.
But Few Of Them Can Be Acted On at
the Present Session.

coSFEREEs os THE TARIFF BILL AT woRK-AS
EARLY nEponr ExpEcTED-ruEN MEMBERS
WILL WANT TO 60 uoME-wHAT MAY BE DONE
BEFORE THE REPORT Is PRESENTED.
The conferees on the tariff bill held a meet
ing this morning, going over the whole matter
In preliminary way. TO separate those amend
ments over which there will be a contest from
those that can be disposed of easily. They set
about their work in business-like way, which
promises an early report.
Members are anxious about the several i'm
portant measures which it is deemed desirable
to act on during this session. The committee on
rules propose to hold meeting this afternoon
TO consider what can be done during the remain
der of the session. Aside from minor meas
ures, which may get in by unanimous consent
taking but few moments to dispose of each,
the only bills that are seriously thought of as
having chance for action arc the shipping
bills and the Butterworth option bill.
But the chances for even these two measures
are extremely slim. The chairman Of the ship
ping committee said today that he thought they
would have to go over until next session. as
nothing at all could be done after the confer
ence report on the tariff bill was submitted to
the House. Pending the report from the con-
Terence the contested election cases and the
deficiency appropriation bill stood to block the
way against all else.
The impossibility Of getting a quorum will
probably force the majority to abandon the
passage of the Ohio resolution. One hundred
and forty republican members are the most
they have been able to get together at one time
for two months, and today the number falls far
short of that

Representative O'Ferrall Expresses
Confidence in Gen. Lees Reelection.

The Virginia democrats in the House are not
pleased at the entrance of an independent
democratic candidate into the contest in the
eighth district. Mr.. O'Ferrall said to q
STAR reporter today that he had no
doub. of Gen. Lees reelection. He
said he supposed that Mr.. Hume
would either be inJorsed by tho republican
convention tomorrow or no ono would be
named at the republican convention and Mr.

The Vacant Jail Wnrdenship.

lie vacant JAN WnrQenS01p.
1t was thought by some members Of the Dis
trict bar that on the death Of Warden Crocker
there would be some doubt about legally hold
ing prisoners at the Jail and that it would DC
necessary to fill the vacancy at once. inasmuch
as there is no provision in the statutes which
authorizes deputy to act as war
den. Even were this SO there was no
quorum Of the judges OF the Supreme
Court of the District in the city to make an
immediate appointment The law in the Re-
vised Statutes, however, expressly declares
that nothing in the sections in reference to the
warden shall be construed to impair or inter-
fere with the authority of the mar
slihl to commit persons to Jail,
and consequently there is no hitch. There
would be perhaps some question raised as to
the bills for maintenance OF persons when pre-
sented at the Treasury il signed by the deputy
warden, but as the custom has been to make
the acquisitions and orders on the first Of each
month there need be no question on this score.

He Concluded to Live.

1t is a strange fact that the average
newspaper man is superstitious to a de-
gree. Why this should be S no one
knows. One of the craft, who looks to
be healthy enough, was around town on
his work the other day and he ran across
Frank Hill, Chicago's coffin king, who
was at one time at the head Of the i'll
fated Thirteen club. In the course OF a
chat with a few mutual friends the
scribe ventured the opinion that he
would not live long. Every one laughed
at such a hallucination on his part and
tried to cheer him up. Finally Mr.. Hill
came to the rescue and took a hand in
the discussion. He regarded the matter
from a business point of view. Don't
die so soon, my boy" he urged. "You
Just wait until our new spring style OF
casket comes out and then I'll give you
a daisy at first cost" Hereupon the
scribe gave up the idea Of dying and
concluded to live. He did not want a
business matter made of it.-Exchange.

The new trash basket is a bag. The
willow baskets which well intentioned
young women have dressed up in baby
blue ribbons and worsted fruits and
flowers, or have gilded and decorated for
church fairs, are stripped Of their orna-
m~entations and relegated to offices. The
vide porche takes their place in the sit
ting room and boudoir. This is a long,
narrow bag about 8 by IS inches in size;
1t is made of brocade, in any rare old
tint, and lined with a plain silk in har-
monizing color, which is turned down
zen revers' on one side; the bag is sus-
pended by a metal cord and tassel or RIB
bon. If the bag is made from a piece Of

to wear a gown of brocade.-New York
