WASHINGTON, May 21.-The business
Off ths house was begun this morning
amid great excitement. Up to the time
for taking the vote on the engrossment
and third reading of the Mckinley bill
the whole house was in an uproar. The
most feeling was manifested by the Re-
publicans, who are dissatisfied With the
bill and who have been quieted hereto
fore by the hope that they might get
consideration for amendments they de-
sired to offer, which would put
them straight with their constituents
Being cut off by the expiration of time
limit. with their amendments still uncon-
sidered, there was much protesting and
loud expressions and indignation. In
the-pidst of the confusion the hour of
sl6Bh arrived. Mr.. Mckinley waved his
hand, palm down, and quiet settled upon
the house. 1t is said by the Republicans
that enough Republican votes would
have been recorded against the bill to
defeat 1t but for the fact that they had
absolute assurance that the bill will be
torn to pieces and revised by the senate,
most of the features to which the Repub-
licans object being eradicated. 1t is well
understood that the senate finance COM
mittee will report very different meas
ure.

WILL CAUSE STRIFE
Two Conclusions Reached by the
Worlds Fair Committee.
The Exposition to BE Opened Sun.
day and the Sale of Liquor
to BE Permitted.

PHILADELPHIA, July 19.-The prelim-
mary meetings of the committee on
permanent organization of the Chicago
worlds fair have already developed
several important matters. Ono is that
the committee as unit Is in favor of
opening the doors OF tho great enter
prise on the Sabbath, day with the pro-
viso that the machinery shall not be
put in operation. Another is that it
favcrs tho sale of Intoxicating
liquors at the Cafes and restaurants
which may be established within the
grounds, while at the same time 1t does
not believe in public bars. AS the COM
mittee is largely autocratic In its
powers, and its report will be accepted
without question by the main body,
these two ideas may be thus early ac-
cepted as prospective certainties. At
the same timo there is no doubt
that they will encounter a most strenuous
opposition, the one from the Sabbatar-
Ian element and the other from the pro-
hibitionists. Any one who remembers
the terrific battle which was waged by
ministers and laymen of all denomina-
tions against the Sunday opening of the
Centennial exposition of 1876 will not
doubt for moment that tho board of
managers of the coming exposition is
certain to encounter tremendous
broadside of opposition coming from all
over the country. The committee on
permanent organization, however, will
be firm in it's opposition, taking the
ground that the educational benefits
Of Sunday opening will be i'm.
mense, and that while the machinery
need not bo in operation tho people
could walk about, rest on the benches,
listen to the sacred concerts and enjoy
generally the grand sight set before
them. SO far as tho liquor aspect of the
question is concerned the present prop
osition does not go beyond what was
granted at tho Centennial.
The members of the committee are at
Long Branch today, and tonight will be
the guests of Mayor Filter at his Ell
bron cottage.
It is thought that Hon. A. T. Go
shorn, the director general OF tho Cen
tennial, can be persuaded to accept the
same post in connection with tho COM
Ing enterprise, although he has so far
manifested decided disinclination to
take upon himself the responsibility OF
that position.

Mysterious Disappearance of n Wealthy
Iowa Farmer.
SPOKANE FALLS, Wash, July 19.--ln
April, 1880, James NJ. Dunn, a promi-
nent Mason and wealthy farmer of Ida
Grove. Ida county, Ia, mysteriously
disappeared, Nothing has been seen of
him by his friends, although they have
made untiring search. Weorge I. Will
liams, editor of the Ida County Watch,
and other friends OF Dunn, are now in
this city, having traced the wanderer to
this point. From them the following
particulars are learned: Dunn had
lived amicably with his wife until tho
fall Of 1883, whom he left home for Chi
cago to receive treatment for his eyes,
not returning until the following April.
He then accused his wife of infidellty.
A quarrel ensued, followed by separa-
tion, the wife leaving for her parental
home.
a short time afterward Dunn mysteri-
ously disappeared, leaving his large
farm and other property and a good
sized bank account. Mr.. Williams and
his companions have definitely traced
him to this point, where, few days be-
fore the fire of August 4, he hired n
pony and left the city. All further
trace of him is lost no one knowing in
what direction he went, and nothing
was heard of him afterwnrd. 10 left
his baggage, considerable Sum Of
money and some jewelry.-i In his hotel
room, all of which wete burned in the
fire. Dunn is>said to have been in per-
feet health when last seen and showed
no signs Of mental alteration.

Yanlston Insane Asylum scsnunk-

1onKtOn insane Asylum Hc0QUnE
Tho Yankton hospital for'the insane
has not been free from scandals and
more than one name has been smirched
both financially and morally by connec-
tion with it, and the thought sometimes
occurs that it would have been better
for Yankton had the institution been
located In the Washington hills. Two
or three years ago there was long In
vestigation OF the hnancia manage
ment, the result Of which was never
satisfactory to the people, who think .
large sum of money was never satisfao-
torily accounted for.
The last sensation, the investigation
OF which closed Saturday night, was an
accusation OF immortality against tho
superintendent DR.. w. II. Livingston,
he being accused of criminal intimacy
with some of the female attendants. It
being charged that he was caught
locked In room with one Of them.
Tho state board OF charities has been
engaged all the week in hearing testi-
mony and listening to arguments Of
learned counsel. Attorney General Dol

John X. Gamble for. the defense. The
charges were made by discharged em-
ployes and abetted by DR.. j. A. Potter,
the steward of the Institution, and q
Norwegian doctor of the city, who was
formerly assistant at the hospital. The
female members of the state board took
a deep interest in tho investigation,
and, it is charged, had much to do with
tnaugurating 1T. After patient in
yestigation the board dismissed
tho charges and declared DIR.
Livingston innocent Tho super
intcndent is an old resident and
highly esteemed, and the people gen.
orally consider the verdict righteous
one. DIR. Potter, the steward, at once
rendered his resignation to the board,
which was accepted. and Hon. Z. G..
Edgerton, member of the last legisla-
ture, and who is son of Judge Edger-
ton, was appointed In his place.

Draw an Immense Attendance.
CHICAGO, July 19.-An elaborate re-
port concerning the coming national
lows was made at today's meeting of the
local committee, at which General
Underwood, the grand sire, was present.
Letters and dispatches received during
the week indicate that there will be a
much larger attendance from eastern
points than was at first anticipated, and
1t is estimated that the New England
states alone will send not less than
5000 delegates. The New York dele
CATION is estimated On conservative
basis at 1000 swords. Virginia, the
District of Columbia, kentucky, New
Jersey, Maryland, Delaware and Penn
sylvania will be we'll represented. as
we'll as California, Dakota, Nebraska,
Kansas and Missouri. Ohio will
turn out strong, and the Indiana
brigade will have over 1000
swords, with three bands in line. Tho
Michigan brigade will come to Chicago
GOO swords strong, while Iowa will send
its full quota. The representatives also
say that the subordinate and Rebekah
degree lodges through the country are
also manifesting deep interest in the
cantonment, and from the adviccs to
date it is certain that not less than
30, 600 members of these bodies alone
will be here from points outside of Chi
cago. During the cantonment week the
Grand Decoration of Chivalry" will be
conferred on several distinguished
members OF the order, and the Deco
ration Of Chivalry,"a q lesser rank OF the
same degree, Will also be conferred
upon numerous worthy members Of the
rank and file of the order, male and fe-
male. The comforting is to take place on
the lake front grounds in tho evening un-
der the glare of the electric light and tho
ceremonies will be brilliant and inter
esting. Quarters for the cantons, hus-
sars and lancers from Boston, Denver
and Columbus, o., have been secured at
