TROUBLE IN THE HOUSE.
Congressman Bynum and Bayne at Od,
 MT. BYnum CanaurAd.

days ago by MT. Bynum Ind. and MT. Will son (W. Va.) In his letter he strongly at tacks those gentlemen, and uses vigorous language in denunciation of them.
 The house was at once in an uproar, and after half an hour had been wasted MT Bynum got the floor and explained the con ditions under which he had called Camp bell a liar and a perjurer. He concluded by reiterating this charge and by saying 'I have as great confidence in the charac ter of MT. Campbell as have in the char acter of the gentleman who makes this at tack upon me-" (Excltement and uproar On demand of Mr. Cutcheon the words were taken doAen and reported to the house, and MT. Cutcheon offered resolutions to censure MT. Bynum and demanding his presence before the bar of the house.
 The official report of the closing proceed. ings is as follows: MT. Holmes the (ser- geant-at-arms of the house)-Mr. Bynum, by resolution of the house of representa- tives just adopted you are required to ap- pear before the bar ofathe house to receive the censure of that body through its speaker.
 MT. Springer-Well, he is here. The Speaker-The house will be in order, and gentlemen will please resume their seAts.
 MT. Springer-No; we will not resume our seats.
 The Speaker-The house will be in order MT. Springer-We are in order. The Speaker-Gentlemen will resume their seats. ~. sr ITS MT. Springer and others-We decline to be seated, MT. Speaker (Cries of "Or- der" on the Republican side.)
 The Speaker-The house of represents tives perceives that 1t is impossible for the chair to enforce order under it's rules on kl. The chair will, therefore, proceed to the discharge of the duty which the house has | imposed upon him with the house in it's present condition of disorder. The clerk l will read the resolutions adopted by the l house of representatives. The clerk read l as follows: ~ Resolved, That the member from h. | diana, Mr. William D. Bynum, in the lan- | guage used by him in committee of the whole house, and taken down and reported | to the house and read at the clerks desk, has been guilty of violation of the rules l and privileges of the house, and merits the censure of the house for the same. | Resolved, That the said William D. Bynum be now brought to the bar of the house by the sergeant-at-arms, and there l the censure of the house be administered by the speaker" | The Speaker-Mr. William D. Bynum, | you are arraigned at the bar MT. Bynum-Mr. Speaker, have I the l right to be heard before this?
 The Speaker-You have not, sir MT. William D. Bynum, you are arraigned at l the bar of the house under it's formal reso- lution for having transgressed it's rules in l your remarks. For this offense the house has directed that you shall be censured at l this bar. In the name of tho house, there l fore I itS l The sergeant-at-arms will discharge MT. | Bynum from custody.
 MT. Bynum-Mr. Speaker, under the cir 1 cumstances l accept the censure of the house as decoration of honor. (Cries of regular order" on the Republican side and long continued applause on the Demo- cratic side).
 Many of Mir. Bayne's friends eonte l that by this final remark Mr. Bynum has transferred to the house the expressions of contempt he addressed to the member from Pennsylvania, and said that this consti- | tutes new offense which calls for action Mckinley opposes any further agitation of | the matter, and Speaker Reed is inclined | to side with him. The speaker is placed in | rather an embarrassing position by this 1 bitter personal controversy. Bayne was the leader of the forces which secured his election as speaker. Bynum and Reed have | long standing grudges against each other, arising out of official elections in the house. MT. Reed accordingly feels that, in a mat | ter of this character, his action is liable to misinterpretation on one side or the other, and he sincerely wishes himself we'll out of it.
 Congressman Bayne was in excellent spirits last evening" When asked if there l was any likelihood of 8 duel between him. self and Congressman Bynum he laughed and said that so far as he was concerned there would be none
 "I think,'' said the Pennsylvanian, ''that when the house decided to pass censure upon MT. Bynum the matter was taken out of my hands. MT. Bynum had at tackled reputable citizen and one of my constituents, and think it was but fair to give him an opportunity to answer. Camp bell is simply mistaken about Wilson hay ing said that he considered $15 per month sufficient pay for glass blowers. MT. Will son probably said $15 per week, or intended to say that. do not consider that acted in an unparliamentary manner and as for MT. Bynum he has no doubt strengthened himself with his constituents, as am told the Indiana Democrats like violent lan- guage when it is applied to Republican"
 Representative Bynum said to reporter: "When a member goes out of his way to | 1udk0 ululS61l Uu6 uOuUupl6C0 O1 du OuCS1Oe scurrilous attack on fellow member he fathers the attack and it becomes in effect his own utterance. Whoever heard of mak- ing the official record of the house the dumping ground of abusive letters from private individuals rejecting on membersi When the tone of that letter became ap- parent to the house and objection was made to it's being made part of the record that objection was ignored and the gentle. man who handed it in fathered it and made it part of his remarks It was an attack on me and every membr of my party, and could not help but resent it.'
 MT. Blaine's Regrets.
 WASHINGTON, May 19.-A local paper prints the following: Secretary Blaine states emphatically that he will not be 8 candidate for the nomination in 1892. At the same time he does not hesitate to dc. clare that if his health had been as good two years ago as it is today he would not have written either the cablegram which he sent from Florence or the one which he afterward sent from Scotland while the convention was in session at Chicago. He looks upon Governor Hill as the man on the Democratic side, and he does not hesi tate to say that the governor will be hard man to beat.''
