THE HOUSE RULES CONTEST.
1t Promises to be Very Lively Unless
the Committees Code 70 Modified.

The fight over the rules Of the House
promises to be even more interesting than has
been heretofore anticipated. A meeting Of the
committee on rules is expected 70 be held TO-
morrow, but the democratic members will
probably not attend
Mr.. Carlisle was given copy of the proposed
new code yesterday and after reading it said
that the minority would not agree to the prop
ositions; that It wss useless for them to At
tempt anything in the committee and that
they would make their fight on the floor of the
House.
A considerable opposition to the more radi-
cal propositions in Mr.. Reeds plan has devel-
oped on the republican side, and it looks as if
a modification would have to be made or else
the code viii be rejected by the House. It is
said that some notifications Of the original
plan have been made already by Mr.. Reed
THE FEAruREs Nh. CARLISLE OBJECTS TO
especially are the provisions that q motion to
60 into committee Of the whole to consider any
measure shall not be recognized unless made
with the approval of the committee having
charge the measure; that legislation may be
put on appropriation bills; the restoration Of
the old morning hour, and the omission of any
provision for motion to take recess or to adj
1ourn over to q day set
mere are number OF measures that have
been defeated from time to time by the efforts
of a minority composed Of members of both
parties. The republicans who have fought
these measures do not want rules adopted that
will make their opposition futile in the future.
Other republicans are opposed on general
principles to the adoption Of rules
which they would not be willing to abide by
should they fall into the minority in the future.
These members, and there are a number of
them, insist that q conservative course should
be ollowed and that the radical features shall
be stricken from the code.
REPUBLICANS WHO FAVOR A MODIFIED CODE.
STAR reporter has talked with number Of
republicans who assert that probably half the
party in the House would be unwilling to put
themselves in an embarrassed position by
adopting radical rules, even to crafty their
Speaker. They say that the original code pro-
posed will have to be modified in some parti-
culars in order to get the full party support.

BLOOMING FLOWERS IN JANUARY.
Springlike Effects Of the Remarkably
Mild Weather.

The remarkably mild weather the past four
weeks has had most surprising effect on the
vegetation in this vicinity. Flowers are found
blooming in parks and public gardens. Mr.. J.
g. Judd Of the firm Of Judd Detweiler sx-
hibited this morning . sprig Of Narcissus in
bloom which he had plucked in his garden.
Mr.. J. J. Hurley wrote today to TIE stan -
follows: ION the 18th OF December last came
upon the only flower then in blossom-Stelloria
media (chickweed)- i'm little run on the out
skirts Of the city. The next Sunday, December
%, I found in addition two other flowers in
bloom-Draba verns (whitlow grass) and Tarax-
acum Dens-leonis (dandelionl. On the two
succeeding Sundays, December 20 and January
5, found In addition to the above the follow
ing flowers in full bloom, viz: Houstonia ceru-
lea lbluets), Cersstiun viscosum (mouse ear
chickweed), Capsella bursa-pastoris (shep-
herds purse) and Viola cucullota. Yesterday
lJanuary l2) collected two additional species,
Alnus serrulota (alder) and the beautiful and
delicate Anemone hepatica Oliver leaf), OF which
secured six good specimens, making total OF
nine species found in blossom in midwinter-
that is, from December Is, 1889. to January II,
lS90-certainly. / think, . most remarkable
showing. OF course the botanists of this city
will readily recognize that some of the above
named flowers, and especially the three first
mentioned, are not, strictly speaking, vernal
plants, and have been known to flower in win
ter before, but / think am safe in saying that
never before have SO many species been found
IN blossom at this time Of year. II am
wrong in my conclusions I should like to hear
from some botanist on this point"
Mr.. John Hadley Doyle writes to The STAR
as follows: "As your columns have lately
chronicled several strange freaks Of this win
ter season-the finding Of arbutus, violets,
buttercups, &c.-I take the liberty of inform
ing you of a rather curious find of mine while
out walking yesterday. Just beyond the home
Of Prof. Frisby, on Congress street, George
town, plucked two fully-developed field daisies
growing on the terrace, while on the pavement
were two very large black caterpillars, crawling
around as if it were midsummer. These strange
objects for the 18th of January to my mind
Guido the growing Of plants as far a. freaks
are concerned"
