DISCUSSING REINFORCEMENT
The Senate Makes Progress
With Legitimate Business.
Having shelved tho Gag Rulc and the
Forcc bill, the Democrats Aid In
Transacting Business-Scnntor Carlisle
Makes Strong Point in Regard to
Presidential Electors Undor tho Now
AppOrtionment.i

WASHINGTON, Jan. Isl Special
The Senate transacted general business
during the morninghour Senator Stew
art justified his action in declaring
Senator Stanford opposed to cloture and
the force bill by o telegram from the
latter.
The House amendments to tho Senate
bill referring to tho court Of claims the
claim OF Chesapeake Female College of
Virginia for use ana occupation of its
property from 1861 to 1860 by the mill
tary authorities of tho United States
concurred in and the bill now goes to
the President.
The House apportionment bill was
then taken up and Mr.. Hale. who had
reported it from the census committee,
explained and advocated the House bill
and argued against the amendment pro-
posed by the minority Of the committee.
Mr.. Davis replied to Mr.. Halo and re-
stated some of tho considerations why
the amendments of the minority of the
committee should be agreed to-.
MIR. Gormah agreed with Halo and
Washburn that there was no politics in
the bill. The only question was whether
its framework did exact justice to all
the States in the Union. He Expressed
his belief that on the whole tho super
intcndent of census had performed his
work fairly and we'll; but nevertheless
he was convinced that the enumeration
Of Now York City was defective to the
extent of 200,0 and he thought that
no sufficient reason had been given WHY
the request OF tho State and municipal
authorities for q recount had not been
complied with.
Mr. Carlisle suggested question
which occurred to him rs likely to arise
fqAm tho fact of the apportionment being
made in the same year the census was
taken. That was whether the election
of Presidential electors in November,
1892, would be based on the present
number of representatives in Congress,
or tho number as it would be on the 4th
of March, 1891.
Mr.. Davis said nc hnd not considered
that question, but that the Same oues-
ton must have arisen every ton years
Mr. Carlisle insisted that it had not
arisen before, as this is the first time
that an apportionment bill had passed
the same year the census was taken
lie submitted the question TO the con-
sidcration of the Senators on the other
side.
Mr.. Carlisle continued and held that
under the Constitution no State could
vote for more electors than il mad at
that time Senators and Representatives
In Congress, regardless of the language
of the apportionment act. The ana
logies o. 1892, 1852 and 1875 were of
great weight but not conclusive. The
bill will probably be voted upon to-
morrow.

ROANOKE, VA" THURSDAY MORNING, JANUARY 20 1891
WALTER BUDWELL DEAD.
He Passes Away Suddenly at
One o'clock This Morning.

Mr.. Walter Budwell, OF the firm of
Budwell, Christian &c Barbee, died very
suddenly about ono o'clock this morn
ing at his residence, 1O11 jefferson
street south.
lie had been feeling poorly for sew
eral days suffering from severe cold,
accompanied by loss OF appetite and
pains, which caused u depressed condi-
ton of tho system.
Last night he came down to the drug
store and took one-eighth grain pill
OF morphia. Being fine druggist, and
confident Of the nature OF his case, he
had seldom required the aid OF a ply
sician and treated himself.
His pa 'tner, Mr.. J. Fleming Christian.
noticed M. l.udwell's rather haggard
appearance and advised him to go home
and re ire, which advice he followed
shortly. 1t is /, armed that he had eaten
nothing but dis h Of ice cream for over
TIVE lty-four hours.
When he retired he took three-eighths
of grain CT morphia to induce sleep.
Mrs. Budwell conversed with him for
some time, noticing nothing unusual
about his condition. In fact he arose
several times after having retired.
About 10 o'clock Mrs. Budwell spoke
to her husband, but received no answer.
Looking in his face she saw that his
eyes were half closed and that he seemed
in comatose condition.
Failing to arouse him, she ran i'm
mcdiately to hor mothers room to sum-
mon aid. Even then she heard Mr.. Bud
well groan as if in nightmare.
DR.. f. G. Tice was sent for and came
at once. He applied powerful electric
battery, and administered hypodermic
injections. He was aided by DIR. Gale,
who came soon after. But their labors
were in vain, life had departed almost
ut the time of DR.. Tees arrival.
The amount of morphia taken by Mr..
Budwell was far below the danger
limit, and even if an over dose had been
taken, death would not have occurred
in many hours, even il the usually
successful antidotos and counter-agents
employed by DR.. Tico proved inoirec-
tive.
The necessary conclusion then, and
the one arrived at by both attending
physicians, points to heart complica-
ton as the immediate cause OF death.
Mr.. Budwcll came to Roanoke from
Richmond in 1854 and catered into
partnership with J. Fleming Christian
