CONGRESSIONAL NEWS.
an. PAMERs PROPOSED AMENDMENT.


WASHINGTON, Sept. An neither
branch OF congress was there any
thing done Saturday that was OF the
least Importance to the public The
house spent its time in wrangling
over the rules and contrary to oXpec-
tations, did not finish up the work Of
passing them. An adjournment was
made until Wednesday, when it is ex-
pected work on them viii be con-
Guided. The probable cause of this
extended debate is that the house has
nothing particular to do when the
rules are adopted and therefore there
10 no hurry. The committee on APP
preparations cannot get down to work
until the estimates are In from the
departments, and these, in all probe
bilty, will not be in before next
month or tho month after, The river
and harbor estimates cannot be ready
before that time. In the senate time
was taken discussing the Chinese
question, and as soon as that was
done an executive session was sue
ceeded by adjournment but the ses-
sion of that body will hereafter be
commenced at II o'clock, and every
thing is being done by tho antl-silver
men TO push vote.

his followers ms he entered the house
and walked to his seat. Scenes in
front of the house were exciting.
When the announcement was made
that the house had passed the bill the
crowd went wild. They cheered,
shouted, sang, embraced ono another,
smashed hats and did other absurd
things to show their appreciation Of
the action. Gladstono's carriage,
containing the prime minister and his
wife, emerged at ten minutes after l..

land, wife and child arrived in Wasn-
ington yesterday morning about 4
o'clock. and when daylight came they
went TO the white house. The presi-
dent has been very busy since his re-
turn. The cabinet officers, one and
all, unite in saying that he is in as
fine health as he ever was in his life.
The whole story OF his terrible sick
ness and the dangerous operation per-
formed on him can simply be put in
few words, that he had two teeth
pulled and a slight and very common
operation performed on his jaw which
neither involved pain nor danger.

One Of the principal sources of
economy in street car traction is the
maintenance in perfect condition of
the rails. Dirty rails are II drag on
the car that represents so much in
dollars and cents, and many more or
less efficient methods have been pro-
posed whereby this source of waste
can be stopped. Tho newest of these
Is one in which the principle OF elias
ITCHY is introduced for the first time,
and in which also greater degree of
lightness of construction is attained.
The eleanor is attached to the car
and reduces the cost of cleaning the
rails to twelve cents per day. The
expense of the various met hods of rail
cleaning usually adopted is as follows:
BY hand o-"' day, twenty five cents
per Vi single line in fine season,
and fifty cents mile in the winter;
watering by cart twice day, sixty
cents per mile. 1t has been shown
that the fractional resistance met
with by Il car running on rails cleaned
by the previous car was from twenty
Eve pounds to thirty pounds less than
when running on dirty rails.

Faster and faster the car sped. Now

the train sped fifty miles an hour,
Into Broadway it dashed at
seventy miles Tearing across the
street it struck big cedar telegraph
pole, out OF the lower part of which it
cut q log where the platform and top
of the car struck the pole. After cut
ting through the pole the car struck a
big iron door-post, in building at
the corner, split it and thrust half tho
length OF the car into the building.
Over this mass Of pulverized ruins the
rear car leaped to destruction. All
around this heap OF confusion were
scattered the dead and dying, 1t is
believed that not one of the forty

A senator who has made o free colnz
age speech, and who in all things is
an ardent free coinage man, says that
vote will be taken within three
weeks, and that the repeal act will
pass. His name is withheld because
he does not stand in the at
titude Of throwing cold water
on the chances of measure he
advocates. A membor OF the Demo-
cratic steering committee also says
that he does no believe when the timo
comes that thore will be n single
Democrat found engaged in nlibustor-
ing tactics and that the lilibustcrs
will be limited to the senator's from
the silver states. These cannot stand
up long in the fight that win DO
wagod and the repeal will como in q
month. lie said FREQ and full dis
cussion will be given the matter and
every liberty allowed for speaking to
the advocates of silver, but when this
is done the matter will be pushed to

n victory which makes it impossible
for the gold mon to impede the con
sideratiou of bimetallic or financial
legislation that may be reported by
the committee on coinage, weights
and measures and banking and cur
rency during the coming session.
The time-honored custom Of
the house has been to make
the reports OF the committee
on appropriations and ways and
means privileged matters at all times,
and when the new rules were being
considered yesterday Mr.. Springer,
chairman of the banking and currency
committee suddenly sprung an amend
ment extending the same favoritism
to his committee. Mr.. Kilgore fol-
lowed with an amendment to that,
including the committee on coinage,
and although the amendments were
sharply opposed, they were at last
adopted by vote of 1873 yeas to 05
nays, and the original as amended
was adopted by u vote Of l02 to 53.
