ordered in the subsidy and economic resolution offered by Mir. Holman.
 Mir. Holman withdrew the motion. He had, he said, come to the conclusion that the second resolution was broad enough to cover any and all proper and legal appropriations. It would include all such legislation as private pension bills and the like.
 So the question was taken on the first resolution, which reads as follows:
 Resolved, that in the judgment of this House, the granting of subsidies or bounties by Congress, in money, pub lie lands, bonds, or by endorsement, or by pledge of the public credit, to promote special private industries or enter prises of corporations independent of the question of the stitutional power of Congress to make such grants; is unjust and impolitic and in manifest conflict with the spirit of ourRepu blican institutions, as it directly tends to create and foster the wealth of favored classes at the expense of the whole people, who bear the burdens of Government, and manifestly furnishes undue facilities for the enlargement of great private estates, a policy which a Government of the people cannot justly or safely encourage by any form of fla voritism in legislation.
 It was adopted--- Yeas, 227; nays, Al The question was then taken on the. second resolution, Mir. Lynch, of Wis consin, making vain effort to present . substitute. The resolution is as fol- lows:
 Resolved, In view of the present con- dition of the Treasury, and beeanse efficient and honest government can only be assured by the frugal expen- allure of the public money, while un- necessary and lavish expenditures under any and all conditions lead invitably to venal and corrupt methods in public affairs, no money ought to be appropri- ated by Congress- from the.public Treas ury except such as is manifestly neces- sary to carry on the several depart ments frugally, efficiently and honestly administered.
 The resolution was agreed to-yeas, 164; nays, 93.
 The following bills were introduced and referred:
 By Mir. Newberry of Illinois--To test the methods of spelling in schools and appropriating s100,00o to establish a spelling school at the worlds fair.
 By Mir. Lane of Illinois-Placing salt lum ber nails cotton ties binding twine, and agricultural implements on the free list.

 CIrY OF MEXICO, Jan. 16.--An agent of Fomento has just returned from the frontier. where he claims to have made a thorough investigation of the revolu- tionary movement. He reports that Garza is in hiding and his follower starving in the desert. and that many of the would be rebels are ignorant e1 the causes for the rising. He states also that he did not discover the exist ence of any grievance against Presi- dent Diaz. He believes that the dis affected people have been unjustly in- cited against the State government and
 asserts that the leaders are confeasedly tired of the movement, are without
 funds, and open to an offer of amnesty
 from the government. In official cir
 cles in this city the rumor that Iter-
 bide is the real head of the revolution
 is regarded as absurd. It is said, too,
 that the clergy desire 10 be at peace with them, is. it is claimed, moro
 lenient toward them than would bs any one else. The government adher- ents say that if the United Statea

Mnnnv for the Military.

The cavalry arm Of the volunteer service
of the State has attained marked degree
of efficiency during the last few months.
The several troops are constantly re-
ceiving recruits, and the discipline in the
regiment is admirable. However, the
cavalry, as do the other branches Of our
military system, needs more liberal en-
enlargement from the Legislature. 1t is
hoped that that body when it meets again
will give the subject of increased appro-
priations for the support of the military
the consideration 1t merits. Infantry,
cavalry. and artillery would have fuller
ranks il the State would bear larger
share Of the expense attendant upon
maintaining the service. As it is, many of
our volunteers help to keep up their re-
spectlve organizations at what is to them
heavy pecuniary sacrifice.

II is asserted that the assassin had no con-

those cranky would-be martyrs or would

their appearance IN times of conflict
between different elements Of society. or
of great public excitement Of any kind.
The strikers may be and probably are en-
tirely innocent of any collision with him,
but his act can hardly fail to diminish
sympathy for them. Public opinion Is
apt to hold rioters morally accountable
for all the influences they engender. di-
rectly and indirectly. and for that reason
the most conservative men engaged in
strike often suffer for the excuses COM
mitted by the turbulent. unreasoning, and
law-defying.
