A USEFUL LIFE ENDED.
The Death Yesterday of Hon. Henry
c. Carr.

-. SdII.
Henry C. Carr died yesterday at noon.
at his residence, at 156 Twenty-third
street. Mr.. Carr was born in James
town, r. l., 1885, where he lived for
twenty years and received his early edu-
cation, and he graduated at Brown
University in 1862. He studied law in
New York city in the Office of Judge
CLANCY Shaffer, and was admitted to the
bar in 1864. He moved to Upton, Iowa,
in 1867, where he resided twenty years,
engaged in the practice of his profession.
He was president of the school board of
Upton, and was also mayor OF the town
for six years. He served his district as
state senator, in which capacity he held
high position in the esteem of his con-
stltuency and fellow senators for his
sterling qualities and legislative ability.
He came to this city in 1887. and has
been engaged in the practice OF law up
to within ten days of his death, which
resulted from heart trouble and diph-
liberia. Since coming to Los Angeles he
has made for himself many friends
among the legal fraternity, which uni
versally regarded him as a man OF more
than ordinary ability, and in whom
complete confidence could be placed, for
his character was above reproach, and
his plain, straightforward way of doing
business won for him the highest
esteem OF his clients.
He leaves wife, two grown daugh-
ters and a son of II years to mourn their
loss. While the chimes OF Christmas
were ringing at high noon he peacefully
and quietly breathed his last. The
warmest sympathy of a large circle of
friends is extended to the family in this
their distress. The funeral takes place
today at p.m., and the remains will be
taken to Rosedale Cemetery.

the secretary OF the treasury the right TO
determine how much silver purchased
should be coined into money, and - the
secretary held there was entirely too much

with that discretion in the secretary
not another dollar would be coined. The
bill Was neither more nor less than meas

as q commodity on which the government
should advance money. The effect OF the
bin would be To repeal the only law on the
statute books requiring the coinage OF sill

HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.


WAsHTYeroS CITY, May 15--In the
House Mckinley. from the committee on
rules, reported q resolution providing that
hereafter the House meet Mt II q M; that
after the reading OF the journal and the
disposal OF conference reports the House
shall 60 into committee of the whole on
the tariff bill; that the bill b read through
commencing with par agraph Ito, and that
on Wednesday next At noon the bill, with
the pending amendments, shall be reported
TO the House
B.ount Of Georgia criticized the majority
OF the committee on rules sharply for re-
porting this resolution. After a code had
been adopted and all restraints thrown
over consideration of the bill In committee,
ii was proposed to set aside the rule gov
erning the committee IL seemed the
policy Of the majority. whenever
any matter was of magnitude requir-
that this rule should be suspended and be-
come nugatory. 1t mattcred not whether
the paragraphs of the bill had not been

tested against the resolution Is un-Ameri.
can, unwisc and violent to parliamentary
procedure.
Mckinley denied that the resolution had
any purpose to stiHe debate. II was in
tended TO concentrate debate on the para
graphs and provisions Of the bill. The
resolution was not to deny to the minority
freedom Of debate. but to deny to 1t the
right to delay public business by dilatory
motions and obstructive tactics. The
House had been given thirty-five hours of
general debate and fifteen hours under the
five minute debate. and it was to be given
five days nore. Did the gentleman from
Georgia remember that in the forty-fourth
congress but one day was given to con-
sideration of the tariff BILL in the forty fifth
six days and in the forty-eighth nine days.
McMilln asked what would become of
the amendments offered in committee of
the whole and not disposed OF at noon
Wednesday.
Mckinley-They will fail.
After further debate the resolution was
adopted IN TO %. The House then went
into committee of the whole on the tariff
bill. The reading of the bill consumed the
remainder of the day. The committee rose
and the House took recess.
