HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.

Washington, Nov. 1.-When the
house met this morning, Mr.. Bland
having declined the offer Of Mr.. Will
son to allow one, two or three hours
debate after previous notice, and hav-
ing refused to enter into any agreement
whatever that did not leave the repeal
bill open for general debate and amend
mont, Mr.. Wilson demanded the pre-
viouS question.
Mr.. Bryan, Of Nebraska, on behalf
Of the silver men, at once moved to
adjourn and demanded a division. The
motion was defeated, % to 10S The
silver men then moved a recess until
3 o'clock p. NJ. This was also defeated.
The tilibustering continued, but with
out a roll call having been secured.
The silver men made an Intellectual
attempt in that direction, but on a di-
vision % demanded the yeas and nays
1t was lost. Thus the silver men
had not been able to muster sufficient
strength to secure a roll call.
After this they again resorted to al
ternate dilatory motions for adjourn
ment and recess.
Speaker Crisp took advantage of
momentary lull to put the motion for
the previous question, which was de-
clared carried. Mr.. Bryan, of Nebras-
ka, was demanding the attention of
the speaker but was not seen. It was
all done so quickly the silver men did
not seem to know what had happened.
Mr.. Snodgrass, of Tennessee, moved
to adjourn but the speaker said he
had recognized Mr.. Wilson, and he
could not be taken off the floor. Wilson
asked Bland to consume the fifteen
minutes to which his side was en-
titled, and Mr.. Bland began his address.
but not before Snodgrass asserted dill
atory motions would be continued on
other stages Of the proceeding before a
vote could be reached on the main
proposition.
Mr.. Bland created a sensation by
declaring the extra session and this
whole legislation had been thrust upon
the people as a stock jobbing specula-
ticn. Mr.. Bryan, of Nebraska, followed
Bland.

BORN WITHOUT MUSCLES.
But Charles Tolley Managed to Live
for rs Years.

Charles Tolley, who recently died in
Delaware at the age of 70 years, was
born without muscles, and for a year
after his birth it was thought that
he would never be able to move or
speak, says the Washington Post He
could not cry Like other children, and
his expressions of pain or discomfort,
which are made known by vigorous
yells by other babies, only brought
inhuman.
That he could hear was evident and
when less than a year old there was an
expression in and about his eyes that
was more eloquent and effective to
those who saw him than any cutlery
could be. The baby was a source Of
wonder to the country folk about and
no one ever thought it possible that
this weakest Of weakIings would ever
reach his 18th year. At 1 year Of age
the boy had never lifted his head from
the pillow on which he laid, and when
he was dressed or other little things
done for him which babies must have
done, he was literally as timber as
l rag. AT II years of age the only sllg-
seStion OF lOcomotion the boy had ever
made WAS Il sort Of dra gging himself
forward on the ground.
1t was about this time that the boy
first began to show indication of that
marvellous will power which carried
him through Il long life and enabled
him to see his bOyhood's friends, who
were Of sturdy mould, drop one by one
and go to the grave while he lived on
He never spoke Il word in his life He
had a way of expressing himself which
his friends learned to understand, but
10 4 stranger the noise which came
from his mouth had a startling and
frightful effect
AS he grew older, by great will pow
er he was, after many years Of prac-
tice, enabled to stand upright and re-
main standing by Il great effort. Later
he WAS able to make progress with
his feet, but his going forward was
4 tOttering, faHteling motion which
seemed as if he would fall at every
step, if his efforts could be called
step at all. AS he grew to young man
hood he had a good appetite and he
made flesh and bone, but no muscle.
He was as big as the average man Of
his age and would weigh as much.
He lived with his parents.

A BLACK CAT AND BAD LUCK.

A short while ago a lady going up
the slope on Charles street to the
Washington monument was very much
interested in the performance of a
black cat which was hunting for 4
tender sparrow on which to make a
breakfast. The cat proved to be a
successful sport. He bagged the game
and run across the path between the
lady and gentleman approaching from
the opposite direction. The gentleman
was on his way downtown to busiL as.
nen he saw the cat he stopped short,
as if he had been shot, turned around
three times on his heel, said, Darn
that cat, and hurried away from the
spot. The lady, who very well under
stood all the actions of the cat. was so
surprised by. those of the gentleman
that she became fixed to the spot She
could not make it out until 4 black wo-
man informed her that it was mighty
bad luck for black cat to cross ones
path. especially on the way tc business
in the morning." She also learned
that the way to break the spell of Ill
luck was TO turn around three times
and ''cuSs'' the cat mildly. Satisfied
with this solution of the question. she
did not consider it necessary to step
across the street to consult any further
authority on the black art in the Pea
body library, within sight of which
the incident occurred.-Baltimore Sun.

Washington, Nov. 1.-SilYer purchase
by the government ceased today. The
purpose for which President C1evelani
called congress in extraordinary SeS-
sion was accomplished at 4:25 o'clock
this afternoon when the president af-
fixed his signature to the bill to repeal
Internationally the purchasing clause
Of the Sherman law.
Only twenty-seven men could be raj
lied for the last stand by the silver
leaders. Their small following might
have succeeded had they been lead
by an experienced and skillful parlia-
mentary tacticians.
Neither Bryan nor SnOWgrass, his
lieutenant, are well versed in parha-
Eentary procedure, and vixen thrown
off their guard by momentary distIac-
ton, they exposed their flank By fail
ing to follow one tillihustering motion
with another.
Speaker Crisp overwhelmed them by
putting the pending motion to order
the previous question. 1t was carried
with roar. The fillibusterers had
been caught mapping and nothing re-
manned for them to do except submit.
The final vote was taken at 2:ou
.. III. 1t stood 1913 for, 94 against.
The bill was engrosSed Immediately
and twenty minutes later formal an
nouncement was made to the senate
that it's amendment had been agreed
to by the house. The bill was hurried
ly enrolled and at $3.50 it was presented
to Speaker Crisp for his signature. A
messenger carried it to the senate
where it WAS signed two minutes later
by vice-President Stevenson.
Chairman Pearson, Of the committee
on enrolled bills, with the measure I'M
der his arm, entered a carriage await
ing him and drove rapidly to the white
house
The president had been kept duly
advised of the progress OF events. In
deed, he manifested so much interest
in the vote Of the house that at his
request duplicate of the names of
those who voted for and against con-
currence was made soon after the
roll call was completed and this list
was lying on his desk when Pearson
arrived with the bill.
Secretary Carlisle, Attorney General
Olney and Private Secretary Thurber
were present. After felicitating with
each other for a few moments over
the victory that had been achieved,
the president took up the engrossed
copy OF the bill and read it aloud
Then picking up a quill pen he af-
fixed his autograph at 4:25 o'clock.
Thus, eighty-tive days, four hours
and twenty-five minutes after the ex-
traordlnary session convened, the
remedy for the financial distress which
Cleveland demanded in his message
was applied.
An analysis of the vote shows 124
democrats, siXty-eight republicans and
one populist Cannon, of California
voted for concurrence, and seventy
democrats, fifteen republicans and nine
pOPulists against the motion.
The following members voted for the
Bland free-coinage substitute and al,

Marshall, Turpin, Post and Tyler,
While Neill, Weaver and Kyle, who
voted for the free coinage substitute,
dbl not vote on the final vote.

DIPHTHERIA EPIDEMIC.
4 Parkway New Jersey City Sadly
Afflicted

Patterson, n. 1.-THE board of health
tonight ordered the commissioners of
public instruction to close public school
No. L. This school is situated in a
thickly settled part of the city called
New Holland. Fully five hundred chill
dren attend the school, and during the
past few weeks forty mine of them
have been stricken with diphthcria,
and so far there have been twelve
Deaths
The contagion has become epidemic
in the school district and the health
board is now forced to adopt heroic
methods.
The disease riginated from the filthy
banks of the Passaic river, where the
children were in the habit of playing
along the stream The health board
found that the contagion was spread
through the school by the scholars
drinking from one cup. and thrugh
handling books taken into infected
homes.
The first act of the health officers was
to close all pumps and take away all
drinking cups. They found it difficult
to isolate the sick children, as the par
ents in most cases are very poor and
live in one or two rooms.
The epidemic is not confined to school
No. II. 1t is spreading over the whole
city and the authorities are now thor
oughly alarmed.

AGONIES OF THE TRANCE.
STEALING AS A BUSINESS.
American Corpora ton Methods and to
What They Are Leading

Isaac l.. Rice, who has champiolIed
the security holders of the Philadelphia
and Reading Railroad in their recent
business troubles, speaks out boldly
in the October Forum concerning the
lax moral code Of corpora tons. AS soon
rs board of directors are elected, he
says, they consider themselves the alb
sOlute owners Of the property and the
courts as little more than Instruments
FOR registering the wishes of those
whose dishonesty is responsible for
the ruin of 4 corporation Unless we
introduce radical changes in our views
of public right and wrong. he believes
that the foreign capital which has built
up so many sections of our country
will no longer serve us. while if con
fidence is permanently undermined, our
entire economic existence is undermined
and panic must follow panic.
More and more are foreign nations
coming to the conclusion that while we
are Il magnificent people, we have in
comprehensive laws and customs,
which render it altogether unsafe to
mcddle with us in q financial way.
We are gradually obtaining the repu-
taton of Bedouin Arabs, who are rec
ognized to possess many admirable
qualities; but, when travelling their
way, it is best to leave yaluables at
home. This does not in any way
mean that all intercourse between for
eign countries and our own country
could ever cease. AS long at least as
Europe needs our breadstuffs and our
cotton and other articles of export,
European commerce must seek us and
we shall derive benefit from it. More
over, Europeans freely admit that con-
sidered as private individuals, no peo-
pie are more honest or more honorable.
Private loans, will, therefore, continue
to be made.
But it may be laid down as a broad
that unless we introduce
radical changes in our views of public
right and wrong, unless we give absO-
lutte assurance that the advocacy Of the
right to steal, under no matter what
legal forms or sanctions, has become
utterly abhorrent, the foreign capital
which has built up so many sections
of our country and which was for years
the main source of the development
of barren regions and added so materi-
ally to our greatness and is still es-
sential to the regaining and maintain
ing of our prosperity, will no longer
serve us.
