Lectures to Be Delivered to the National
Guardsmxn.
Adjutant General Long of the District Ma
tional Guard has issued circular stating: The
''school of officers" for the ensuing year will be
devoted to a course of instruction in duties in
the field.
1t is proposed to convey the instruction by q
course of lectures based on the assumption
that the President has called out the militia for
three months service to hold the defensive
until armies can be raised; and, by following
out their supposed movements from the time
the orders of the President are received until
the expiration of their term Of service, to en-
brace in the lectures every duty Of subordinate
officers in the field.
1t is not proposed to discuss the art Of war.
but to confne the lectures to instruction in
knowledge that a subordinate militia officer
should possess, and in duties that he should be
prepared to perform in an emergency. The
lectures, therefore, must omit much that
might be looked for in an ordinary
professional text book, but they will be given
with the purpose of afording practical in
struction to all officers. and in the hope of in
teresting few to seek for such further in
struction as would be essential to them in
higher positions or in service beyond the time
that military operations would be intrusted TO
the militia.
The lectures will be given in the officers
room Of the first battalion armory. All officers,
and all enlisted men who have qualified as
candidate for promotion" will be required,
and all enlisted men who may desire are cor
ing of uniform in attending the lectures is not
requested
treated in twelve lectures.

NKw YORK. Jan. l2.-The stock market

vance Of SO per cent over its final price of

cred with reference to the length Of time that
the resolution had been before the committee.
The resolution had been referred on the first
day OF the session. The session was now hall
gone and nothing had been done. The House
ought not TO adjourn until il had excul. lted
the innocent and placed condemnation where
1t rightfully belonged.
Mr.. Adams of Illinois argued that the resolu.
ton did not, under the rules, involve 9 question
of privilege.
Mr.. Crisp Of Georgia said that there was no
express rule authorizing the discharge Of the
committee. But this was not an ordinary case.
The original resolution was unquestionably a
question OF the highest privilege IL the CON.
mittee refused to report the resolution motion
10 discharge was privileged.
The Speaker inquired whether the gentleman
believed that the original resolution was one o.
privilege.
Mr.. Crisp replied that he had assumed tha:
the Speaker had SO held. The Speaker stated
that he had not. On the contrary, in a some
what similar case he had ruled (and the House
had sustained his ruling) that the resolution
did not present a question of privilege.
Mr.. Heard (Ao.) said that il was just TO the
missouri delegation that the investigation be
ordered, inasmuch as the newspaper article
on which the resolution was based said that
member of that delegation was a member OF
the pool"
WHAT THE SPEAKER SAID.
The Speaker said that he had ruled upon
question somewhat similar to this ION a resolu
ton presented by Mr.. Oates, Ala, reciting va
rious newspaper allegations) and had pointet
out the inconvenience which would result tC
the business of the House if a resolution recit
ing allegations not fortified by the member
personal belief should be held TO be one o
privilege. The chair decided that in this cas-
the matter should be disposed of by the House
and he therefore submitted the question as Z.
whether or not the pending resolution was on
of privilege.
DECISION OF THE House.
By vote of l45 to so the House decided tina
the question raised by Mr.. Dockery was one o
privilege.
SPECIAL COMMITTEE AUTHORIZED.
The House on motion of Mr.. Roger
(Ark.) adopted resolution providing 70
q special committee of five members to in
yestigate the alleged connection of members o
Congress in silver pools and to inquire into th,
ownership of the Sl2, 100000 Of silver bulliol
which the United States is asked TO purchase.

FRANCE MAY ANNEX MONACO.
Monte Carlo Scandals May Destroy the Little
Principally.

LONDON, Jan. 12.-The authorities at Monte
Carlo are said to be seriously alarmed by the
attacks of the Partisan press and the growing
demand throughout Europe for the suppression
of that gambling place. Mcnsignor Theuret,
the bishop Of Monaco. has issued a remon-
STRANGE against the reckless manner in which
the establishment is administered. and the
hasty interment Of suicides, which. though not
entitled to the rites Of the church. should
have respectable burial A number OF persons
have arrived at Monaco from France. England
and more distant countries in search Of missing
relatives now believed TO have persisted there,
and the potters' field is anxiously inspected by
them, although they find il difficult to obtain
any information.
1t is thought not improbable that France
may take advantage of the public feeling
aroused to seize the little principality and
annex it 10 the republic. The prince is said to
be in much dread of such action, at the same
time that he hesitates 20 reduce his revenues
by abolishing the famous gambling den. whose
managers, indeed, virtually control the psinci-
pality.

he very much feared that the letter would re-

effect go far as he could learn from letters from

GLASGOW, Dec. 12.-There is no material
