-sqnaw-Ehey we're evidently victims of
the Wounded Knee battle.
A meeting of the commanders of the
various attachments of troops was held
this afternoon upon certain tactical move
ments and ut the same time the general
situation was clnvassed.
h uneasiuess noted among the
Indians in the morning rather died away
this afternoon and Two Strikes came in
with thirty of his men aud delivered up
twenty guns, mostly of an obsolete
pattern The uneasiness among the
Indians today was caused by the news OF
the killing OF Few Tails aud his party,
they being firmly convinced that he was
massacrcd without reason. On account
OF the bad effect on the Young bucks, Gen.
Miles has ordered forage for twenty days
longer and will himself remain here until

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10. - German
argued against the correctness of the Eul-
ing made by the vice president Friday to
the effect tina. an appeal from his decision
was not debatable, because the question

dcbatable one.
Edmunds hell that the decision was
absolutely right.
The discussion was kept up for some
time, when German withdrew his motion.
1t is thought to be something in the ma
ture OF a flank movement against the
closure matter.

Dolph said that the constitution was

George dwelt on the matter at some
length, saying, in response to a query OF
Dolrh, that these provisions may not be
an expression OF the Judgment OF the peo-
pie of Oregon of the present day, but they
were an expression at that time, and the
people of Oregon haze not seen fit to
withdraw them.

CHATAN, Mimi Jan. 19.-Mrs. Sarah

of Boone Bridge, Wright county. has
given birth to the most remarkable mons.
frosty ever heard Of in this part of Min
nesota. The people who have visited tie
house call it the deFiL-The mother when
she saw It went into Mysteries, and has
been sent to the asylum at St. Peter, in a
hopeless state OF lunacy. The child devil
was born four weeks ago, and has devel-
oped so rapidly that it weighs twenty.tw
rounds. Its display of intelligence Is
something wonderful, and exceeds that of
ordinary children from l. to Is months OF
age, lts body is covered thIcklY with
auburn hair about two inches long. It has
two horns, a tail like a cat. aud feet which
are partly like those of a man aud partly
like those of a dog. The birth of the
phenomenon is due, according to members
OF the Morns family, to a trivial occur
renee. Some time in November, when a
book agent appeared at the house, selling
a Catholic Bible. Mrs. Morris formed a
violent dislike to the man and ordered him
out OF the house, telling him she would as
soon have the devil in the house as a
Bible. The agent accused her of BIAS

hustled him u of the door, Il will send
you "A devil TO plague you.

WASHINGTON, Jan. l9.-The Raum
investigation was resumed this morning.
Assistant Secretary Bussey testified that
he did not now have. and never did have,
any interest in the refrigerator company.
Raum once asked him to allow the use of
his name in organizing the company, in
order to comply with the Law, and bcllev-
ing Commissioner Raum to be a thor
oughly reputable man he had no hesita-
ton IN attending the meeting at Alexan-
dria &c which the company was organized.
lie did net intend to he a stakeholder,
and, so far as he knew, no stock was ever
assigned him
Bradley Tanuer, the commissioner
I'rIvate secretary, testified thar he was
secretary and treasurer OF the District of
Columbia Refrigerator of which
the Universal Refrigerator company was
the parent company. No stock was ever
issued.
Green B Raum, Jr., was asked BY
Cooper the name of the man who took
care of his horses. He replied that his

LONDON, Jan. l9.-Joseph Chamber
lain has been Kissed and Knocked in his
" town OF Birmingham, and at a care
fully selected ticket meeting. His friends
declare that the sinners we're Gladstonians
who obtained entrance to the meeting by
forged tickets. But Chamberlain himself
well knows that they we're Tories, who
had been invited TO listen to the soothing
words and batteries of a man who has
sWlndled them out OF a fair share Of local
parliamentary representation. The iu-
cident may appear %trifling, but here it is
we'll known to be proof that. despite the
recent truce brought about by the inter
cession Of Lords Salisbury and Harting-
ton, the Tories in Birmingham still hate
and despise Joseph Chamberlain, and will
not vote Tor him or for his nominees at
the next election. This feeling is natural
and Justifiable, and worthy OF every en-
enlargement by good Home Rulers, be-.
cause its existence will give Mr.. Glad
stone several seats in Birmingham and
elsewhere.

PARIS, Tex, Jan. l9.-There was a
pltiable case before Commissioner Kirk
patrick last night. A few days < a
one-legScd man, w. L. Richie, while
drunk, went to where alot of Choctaw In
dams were camped, at Antiers. They
did not seem to appreciate his visit and
refused to talk, when he pulled his gun
and opened fire on them. They scattered
and ran in every direction. None of them
were hurt. Rltchie's wife had been dead
a year, leaving two children-twins-ten
years of age, on his hands. Since then
he has been drifting from pillar to post,
having nothing but an old wagon and two
miserable ponies. When he was arrested
the children started to an aunt's. They
were found by accident in a creek where
the water was running, hanging to the
wagon, wet and chilled through. On &C
count of the mans poverty and general
condition the commissioner released him
on his own recognizance.

CHICAGO. Jan. I9.-The action Of the
baseball gna 10 New York in plac-
ing an American Association club in Chi
cagu, is regarded as a gieat mistake by all
who have c1nyassed the possibilities for
the success of such an enterprise. The
club will meet with a cold reception in the
first place. 1t will not be patronized
week days except as a last resort. and
SUNDAYS it will encounter the opposition
of thu CitY league. the importance Of
winch the association people seem TO
underestimate. The City league is sup
ported by a feeling OF local pride and
backed by men whose influence. 1t
exerted, could close the baseball parks
on the first day of the week. The teams
are composed mainly of players OF
proven strength and the baseball served
up every Sunday afternoon will compare
iavorablY with that Of some OF the clubs
that the ASSOCIATION schedule will bring to
the city. The city league people are CON
tident that if the association club charges
an admission fee Of fifty cents on Sunday,
they can heat it by legitimate opposition.
IF thew come lower than that tariff, "
said an officer of the local organization,
Il think we will be justified in resortinR
to any means in our power to fight them.
The field is ours by right of precedence
and priority. We have warned the asso-
citation, through President Thurman, OF
the reception that awaits them and it
seems that our warning has been ignored. "

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10 The il tention
of the Democrats of tn, house to resort ia
obstruction tactics antil tine determination
of the senate on the elections bill was
manifested this morning, when Bland de
mandcd the reading of Saturdays pro-
coedinrs in full, instead of in ABBREVIATED
form. Then Mills moved an amendment
to the Journal relative to the refusal OF the
chair to recognize his motion to recon
slider his vote By which Fridays Journal
was approved.
Cannon inquired whether it was in or.
der to move the previous question on the
approval of the journal.
The speaker, after an examination of
Mills motion, recognized Cannon. Then
came a chorus of Democratic demands for
the reading of the amendment, which
was: which said ruling Of the speaker is
disapproved by the house. The speaker,
regarding the amendment as not proper,
recognized Cannon's demand. On a
standing vote the demand was rejected,
but the Republicans gathered strength
and seconded the demand-Yeas 1870, NAYS

T%hereuron Springer took the floor and
for some time the house was entertained
by a discussion which went on between

remarks Of the speaker in addresses made
in New York state during the last cam

Speaker Reed had read several decisions
made by Speaker Randall, showing that
the latter refused to entertain similar
appeals.

body could deny that the motion made by
Mills vas purely dilatory and it was the
duty of the chair to refuse to entertain
the appeal. 1t was manifest to the couu-
try that Tor the last six weeks the whole
EDO OF the Democratic size had been to
obstruct public business. The whole pur-
pose OF the filibusterin9 was that it should
be impossible. if the senate should pass
the elections bill, to pass that bill through
the house.

cept that issue and stand upon it.

After further discussion, the journal

EAU CLAIRE, WIS, Jan. l9.-Mrs.
Melvina H. White. who has been asleep
for twenty three days, is still in the same
condition at her home in Wheaton, about
nine miles from this city. Mrs. White is
abont 40 years Of age. She is attended
by two female nurses. The only course
of treatment followed has been the ad,
ministeriug of such medicines as were pre-.
scribed by the doctors and occasionally a
little milk. She has become somewhat
emaciated and is evidently slowly sinking.
Previous to the day on which she fell into
the state of coma in which she now is, she
had been quite weak from general debility
and nervous prostration. The effort to
rouse her with an electric battery was
entirely ineffective, producing only a
slight twitching of the arms. The action

PARIS, Tex Jan. lg.-Four deputy
marshals reached here late last night with
Peter Smith, a notorious negro desperate.
who has been terrorizing the people of

the last four years. In the last several

purpose, as he would be in hiding, and
remain so until the officers would leave.
On Tuesday information of his where

the Red River bottoms. As they aD-
preached he warned them back. stating
that he was well armed and had an album

that he would rot be taken. Seeing that
