CONGRESS-.
THE. HOUSE.

AbSeptees Before the Bar OF the House.
A New Amendment Proposed.
WASHINGTON, April 29.-In the Heuse
this morning the Speaker called attention
to the fact that at the time OF adjournment
yesterday the sergeant-at-arms was given
warrants for the arrest of absentee men,
bers. He called on that officer for areport.
He said nineteen warrants were. placed in
his hands. Seven of the members he was
unable to find. The other twelve promised
to be here this morning. The Speaker
stated the action of allowing members to
give their parole 10 appear was In accord
ance with his instructions to the sergeant
alarms. The delinquent members were
then summoned to the bar OF the House to
present excuses.
Bowers Of California appeared first. He
said his chief offense consisted in being
caught. He went home yesterday TO
answer the letters of persons wanting pen
sions or postoffices, or persons who did not
want somebody else appointed rs post
master, and had no intention of breaking
the rnles Of the House 49,
"A motion to excuse Bowers was made, but
many believing the arrest CT members for
neglect OF Gu,ywas not mere ehild's play
demanded the ayes and noes. Before the
vote was announced the point of order was
made that.members under arrest had no
right TO vote.
After considerable sparring between the
Democrats and Republicans the Speaker
overruled tle point Of order on the ground
that he had no right to order members
name eliminated from the roll.
Bowers was excused-130;to To 65.
The remainder of the delinquents we're
then excused. Oh more or less frivolous
grounds. ..
Representative Bailey Of Texas intro
duced an amendment to the rules, which, If
adopted, will assure a large aitendauee of
the House and relieve the body from the
embarrassment which il has suffered lately.
The amendment directs the sergeant-at-
arms to withhold the monthly pay OF a
member until he files written statement
that he was present in the House during The
preceding month! II he WAS absent, ex-
cept en- account Of personal. sickness or
sickness IN his family. the sergeant-a,-

MILBaNK's ANTAGONIST.
The Freedman Said to Be Very Seriously
Wounded


Wounded
LONDON. April 29.-The reported duel be-
tween Milbank ard Frenchman is con-
frmed. Milbank's antagonist was thought
to be the Due de Morny, who was wounded.
The quarrel which led to the duel occurred
at Brussels. and grew eht of the Drayton-
Borrowe trouble. Morny's wound is re-
ported serious. One story is he win not re-
cover.
The man who was wounded In the duel
with Mlbank, near Ostend, last night, was
not the Due de Morny, but a Frenchman,
who is still unidentified. The reason for
suppaslng that he was the Duke

Milbank telegra9Eed 10 a friend that he
would fight De Morny at his earliest oppor-
tunity. His reason for quarreling with the
stranger has not yet been fully given. Mil
bank telegraDhed this evening from Brus-
seis that he would be here tomorrow.
he seems to be able to remain in
Belgium in defiance of the police and the
laws. This Is probably due to the fact that
ne enjoys the friendship of the Minister of
Justice, who last week promised Borrowe
and him as much help as it was possible to
give In case any serious results followed
the Fox BorrO We duel.
New YORK, April 29.-The Sun special
from London SAYS: Mlbank. at Brussels

his (Milbank's) return from America, ana
that he had not had any communication
with him. TIE Sun reporter said he
saw De Mornv in Paris, and apparently be
was not suffering from any recent wound.
De M0rny said that he had not fought with
Milbank. and did net apprehend any hostile
meeting with him. The duel was brought
about by causes that have M connection
with the Borrowe-DraytOn affair, but are
due to insulting remarks of two Frenchmen
