The House Votes to Extend the Sundry
Civil Appropriations for Four
Days.,
A Discussion as to Who Is Elamable
for the Present State of
Affairs.
The House Passes the Bill Changing
Date of Dedication-A Demo.
cratic Caucus.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-In the house
the first business was resolution pre-
sented by Mr.. Holman, Of Indiana, to
extend the government appropriations
for four days. He explained the neces-
sity for the appropriation, and said the
house was confronted with peculiar
situation. The gentleman from Illinois,
(Mr. Hopkins) had stopped the wheels of
the government by objecting to the con-
sideration of the resolution on Saturday
last. Never before in the history OF the
government had such state Of affairs
existed. He wanted to bulldoze the
house and SO objected.
Mr.. Reed followed with characteristic
speech, and said the blame for failure to
pass the sundry civil bill rested with
the Democratic majority and the fill
busterers against tho worlds fair. Mr..
Holman was responsible in a large de-
gree for the present condition of things
The appropriation for the worlds fair
had the sanction Of the senate and also
Of the 40 members in the house, and
there was nothing urged against it ex-
cept the miserable technicality that
some think it ought not to be in an ap-
preparation bill. The gentleman from
Indiana had no business to stand up
here and charge his sins upon other
men. There was 100 Democratic ma.
jority, certainly responsible for the legis-
lation, and yet Mr.. Holman had laid this
+ta,. ,,,o,,v, tho o%l,n,.
Mr.. McCreary said the fault lay with
the worlds fair advocates. They wanted
the bill to fail if they did not get this
money. The people of the country were
to be robbed for the worlds fair. The
situation was anomalous and the country
knew who was responsible for blocking
the wheels of the government Mr.
Bingham, of Pennsylvania, said the
Democratic majority was able to trano
act public business, but they had sig
nally failed to do this; not only in thi
instance but many others. They mus
answer to the house, the people and tn,
country. There was no purpose on hi
side Of the house to delay public bust
ness. No responsibility should rest upoi
the Republicans for this act Mr.
Holman had seen fit to tilibuster agains
! the bill and this was the consequence.

second Congress.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-Aftera session
of eight months the first session of the

fcers who may act as president in Ger.
tain contingencies. The Bland silver

coinage bill which passed the senate
The several tariff bills passed by the
house failed in the senate. as did also the
bills providing for the admission of New
Mexico and Arizona as states.

Beatrice,s Marrow Escape.

BERLIN, Aug. 2.-Princess Beatrice
had narrow escape from death from
fire at Heiligenberg. Her maid, carry
ing a candle, approached too near
mosquito net-covered bedstead, setting
fire to it. Princess Beatrice, who was
in bed, had no time to dress, but ran
out of the room and alarmed the house
hold. The hose fixture near the bed
room would not work, and the whole
wing of the castle was destroyed before
the fremen arrived. Princess Beatrice
lost all her jewels and clothes. Her
husband, who was sleeping in hunting
box in the neighborhood, hastened to the
castle as soon as he learned of the fire.
Two firemen We're injured.

executed, and the property has for nine
teen years been in third hands. They
had paid 25 per cent. on the liabilities
up to the final payment, and this pay
ment now being made is of 9 $50 per
cent, making ~ $3.50 per cent. alto
gether, Thus the total, valued at
$2O, 100000 in 1878, has yielded a little
over $4,000, 900, when it was supposed to
be good for all debts against it. Ex-
Senator Spraeue has now left only tho
Canon estate, but that property is valued
at $s50,00U to $s00,O00, and the family
has begun to sell it to escape land pow
erty. This estate was once sold to Moul-
ton, the mutual friend in the Beecher-
Tilton case, but after sharp fighting Mr..
Sprague saved it.

The one thing which stands in the way

The one thing which stands in the way
of fusion in this state is the impossible
Iity of driving either Democratic or In
dependent voters in body into a deal,
which simply means the dividing up of
county and state Offices among the
hungry of both parties, and the parcel
ing out of federal offices to the Demo
Gratis alone in case the scheme to throw
the election of president into the
house succeeds. Meanwhile what the
Republicans have to do is to perfect
their organization and make bold and
aggressive fight on national and state
issues.

Jingoism Not Wanted,

Mr. Harrison may think that he can
afford to adopt jingo ton, wards
Great Britain in the BehrinI Sea con
troversy, but he is mistaken. He will
find it good deal better TO iun for
President on his merits than on his de
fected war record.
We have cause Of complaint
against Lord Salisbury, but we have no
cause of war with Great Britain. If
the English Government should finally
tell us that it would not interfere with
the Canadians who are killing seals on
the high seas We would even then
have no cause Of war, for none OF our
rights would be attacked.
Mr. Harrison made very little capi-
tai out Of his attempt to kindle a war
with Chill, and he will make less out
OF big words to Great Britain. A war
with Great Britain would be a more
serious affair than one with Chill
would have been, and if Mr.. Harrison
should start one he would be the chief
sufferer in public esteem for bringing
SO great an evil on so small cause.
OF course Mr.. Harrison has no in
tention Of going to war on the seal
fisheries and is Only talking for effect.
But the effect of the talk is greatly
weakened BY the evid' mt purpose of
the English Liberals to force, if pos
sible, the re-establishmcnt of the
modus Ui,endi.
Not only is war not wanted. but
there is no desire for wordy dispute
on this subject among the rational
people Of both Sides World

Mr.. Mcclure In the South.
INTERVIEWED AT CHARLESTON UPON HIS
VIEWS OF THE PRESIDENTIAL OUTLOOK.

A. X. Mcclure, editor Of the Phila
delphia Times, was in Charleston, S
c., for few hours en- route to Phila-
delphia. In an interview with re-
porter he discussed the Presidential
situation and relative standing of Hill
and Cleveland as follows:
IL have been spending several weeks
in the South for rest and pleasure and
have not given any attention to poll
tics, except when the subject has been
pressed upon me. When the subject
has been introduced, having nothing
to conceal. | have spoken with frank
ness, and notice that some Of the
Hill men Of the South have criticised
my assertion that Senator Hill could
not carry single Northern State.
mo man of average intelligence
who dlspassionately views the political
situation in the Nor h can hope for a
single Northern State voting for Sena-
tor Hill if nominated at Chicago, and
the largest majority against him in any
State would be in New York. This
fact will be very clearly presented and
understood at Chicago and the nomi-
nation Of Hill will not be seriously
thought of when the convention meets.
"The only possible ACHIEVEMENT of
the Hill movement is the defeat of
Cleveland, but it is by no means GER
tain that the positive choice of fully
two thirds OF the people who will elect
a Democratic President, if one shall
be elected this year, can be overruled
by reckless machine raid Of pot house
politicians on the Presidency.
Senator Hills political system has
many attractions for considerable
class of men who are active in mod
ern politics. 1t offers plunder for the
venal, place for the ambitious and fiat
terry for fools, and If his election to the
Presidency were possible there would
be tenfold more disappointment in
political circles of the cessful party
than there was under Cleveland
"The fact that Cleveland's candida
cy does not appeal to the jobber or
the vanity of the weak is the chief rea-
son why he is the strongest possible
candidate the Democrats could pre-
sent for President this year, and the
fact that there can be serious move
ment for Hill for President in any sec
ton OF the country suggests measure
of degradation in American politics
that is unexampled in the history of
the renuhlic"
