House to-day for the first time this session,
and all barriers and traditions surrounding
that committee went down under the i'm
pe.uous sway of the Committee on Agri-
culture. 1t was the old conflict of preroga-
tives against precedents of the Committee
on Agriculture against the Committee on
Appropriations, and Chairman Hatch and
his colleagues carried the day. The effect
of this is far-reaching and may break en-
tirely the force of the Appropriations Com
mittee's assumption TO scrutiniZe and revise
all appropriations to be passed upon by this
Congress.
The bill over which the struggle occurred
was the one called up by Chairman Hatch
approprating as deficiency $4,000 for
experiments ir sugar production.
holman Immediately objected on the
ground that the bill came properly under
ther objected that the Agriculture Commit
tee had not properly Investigated the ques-
ton of appropriation and propounded
several inquiries.
Hatch declined to be catechised, and In the
course OF sharp speech said it was none
OF the gentleman's business. 1t was the
business of the Committee on Agriculture,
which had thoroughly investigated the mat
ter. Time and again he had seen the gen.
tleman from Indiana take the con Institutional
knife and pare appropriations so they could
not be seen under microscope but when
his own State was interested he opened the
doors wider than was necessary to let the
Capitol building through Laughter. One
of the first speeches he ever heard the gen.
tleman make was in favor of a bill 10 build
a turnpike road in Indiana. Where the
gentleman got constitutional authority to
build turnpike road in Indiana he never
could see.
Petitions ard Resolutions.
letter from the acting Secretary of the
Treasury was received and filed this morn
ing, stating S500,000 would be required dur
ing the fiscal year ending June So 1898, for
the purroSe of collecting and preparing a
Government exhibit for the Worlds Colum-
bian Exposition.
a resolution was adopted directing the
Committee on Private Land Claims to make
inquiry into the Maxwell land grant in New
Mexico.
A joint resolution was reported from the
committee changing the dates Of the begin
ming and ending of the terms of Congress
men, changing the time on which the an
nual sessions of Congress shall bsSin and
the cate OF the commencement of ehe terms
OF President ana Vice President.
The urgent deficiency bill passed without
amendment
The bill appropriating, as a deficiency.
Sl5aOe0 Tor carry on the work OF the
Bureau OF Animal Industry and 5000 for
experiments in the production of sugar was
taken up aud passed.
After the bill was disposed of the House
went into committee of the whole on tile
invalid pension bill, and discussion of
political nature followed. When the pas
sage OF the bill was in order a dispute arose
over a minor amendment. and Bailey OF
Texas made point Of mo quorum" He
did this, he said, 10 call the attention of the
country to tie fact that the members did
not attend the sessions in sufficient number
to transact business. The House then ad-
journed.

A RABBI SHOT.
An lmPudent Beggar Demands Money and
Takes Revenge.

New YORK. March 6-Rav. DR.. Henry
Pereira Mendes, chief rabbi of the Temple
Sheriff. Israel, was shot down in his own
doorway tonight by beggar TO whom he
had refused to give 500. At midnight DR..
Mendes was unconscious from his wound,
but he was said TO have a chance of re-
cOvery.
Jose Messacbki, q dark-hued man, sup
posed to be an Arabian or Turk, was the
beggar. For a long time he has pestered
nearly all the prominent rabbis in New
York for aims. Some of them directed him
to the United Hebrew Charities, where he
has often received assistance.
About two weeks ago he settled his atten-
ton upon Dr. Mendes and has been per-
sistent mendicant at his door ever since
He was there on Friday night and again
yesterday morning, and on each occasion
demanded 500.
When the services were over at o'clock
today DR.. Mendes walked TO his home 6
West Ninth street.
Aaron Eisseman, boy IA or 10
years old, who is chorister in
Sheriff. Israel, went with him to get some
books, which the rabbi wanted to have
takeu back 10 the synagogue.
Messachki kept about twenty feet behind
them all the way. Mendes knew the beggar
was behind him, but it never occurred TO
him that there was anydanger in that
When Mendes reached his residence the
beggar was still at his heels. The rabbi
walked up the steps and opened the front
door. As he and the boy entered the front
hall. the beggar ran quickly up the steps
ana pushed In to the house after them.
The rabbi asked him what he wanted
II came for that $780," said the beggar
II cant give you $780," Mr.. Mendes said.
He had stood directly facing Messachki,
and had not time even TO turn away when
the beggar whipped pistol out of his over
coat pocket and fired.
Then he tore out Of the open door and
disappeared. DIR. Mendes fell to the floor.
Dr. Mendes is unconscious, but it is ex-
pected he will live
