WASHINGTON, D. c., October 3d.
Over $50 members Of the House sre in

row.
At the opening Of the session Mr..
Hunter, of Illinois, obtained unanimous
consent for the consideration Of the fol-
lowing resolution, relating 10 the MUIR
der OF Mayor Harrison.
"FeSOlUed, That the House has heard
with astonisment and profound sorrow
OF the violent death OF Carter II. Harri-
SOD, Mayor of the city Of Chicago and a
former mem Der of this body; that this
resolution be published in the Record
and that an engrOssed copy be trans
mitted TO the family Of the deceased" !"
Passed.
A bill to consolidate bidding and con-
tracing for supplies for the government
departments 10 this city was passed. II
is estimated that this change will save
the government S75, 900 per annum.
Mr.. WeadOck, of Michigan, then pre-

lenged full, fair aud free investigation,
and gave notice that he would 10 the
near future ask to be heard in his own

Mr. Oates, of Alabama, called up the
Naturalization bill. Some, MIR. Oates
said, opposed the measure because OF
its supposed deleterIous effects on cleo
tions. None Of the provisions OF this
bill affected the right TO vote, right
conferred by the States In many cases
without citizenship. 1t affected only
citizenship. Why" said Mr.. Gates,
''many foreigners so ignorant that
they do not even know the President
are annually put through the naturaliz-
alton mills and driven like cattle TO the
polls. Such crimes should not be tol-
Grated 10 the great American republic. p"

opposition. He concluded about 4
o'clock. He was followed by Mr.. Ding
ley. At 4:30 Mr.. Dingley closed his

CHICAGO, ILL, October 30.-City Off
cialy and aldermen who entered the
council chamber for the special meeting
this morning found that the decorator,
with sombre designs, had preceded
them, and their eyes met the mournful
insignia of death at the first glance.
The Mayors chair from which his
bright glances and sallies have flashed
was heavily hung with deep black, the
bright red cherry furniture being en-
tirely hidden beneath the thick, heavy
folds of crepe. The desk, too, on which
his gavel has fallen more than once
with heavy force, but always with a
grand good nature behind it, was hidden
beneath the som6re hues of death. No
gaval fell to call the council TO order,
simple word was sufficient. Alderman
George B. Swift, Republican, presided.
Resolutions offered by Alderman Ryan
were adopted by a rising vote. The
resolutions which were not unduly
lengthy provided for memorial meet
ing of council, and concluded as fol-
lows:
L

vited to attend the funeral Of him who

pate In the obsequies which are to come.
"The citizens Of Chicago will act
spontaneously" said the chair "The
late mayor was loved and endeared TO
all the people Of Chicago. The manner
of his death is such as to prompt all cit
izens to become part Of the mourning
congregation which will follow him to
his grave"
Alderman Sexton then moved an ad-
iournment aud the aldermen filed qul-
etly out Of the council chamber.

Comment of fEngll.h Papers.

LONDON. October 30.-The STANDARD COM
menting upon the passage of the repeal
bill by the Senate says that weaker man
than Cleveland would have been beaten
owing to the division of the opinion in the
United States. This defeat OF silver men is
the first step 10 the return 10 better
habits in many things besides the currency.
The most urgent step which must follow
therepeal of the silver purchasing clause
OF the Sherman act is a reduction in the
tariff. If President Cleveland can accom-
plish this, he will stand forth as the great
est administrator of the United States in
the present generation.
The Times says that the victory over
powerful combination of wealthy and
well organized interests with popular ig-
norance, prejudice and greed, is due entire
ly to the flrmness and courage Of Presi-
dent Cleveland It says further: 1--WE
can only rejoice that the country
with which we have such intimate and i'm
portsnt connection in trade, is about TO re-
store that monetary stability which Des-s AZ
the foundation of national credit and Sound
commercial relations"

CHICAGO, October 3O.- When the
gates at Jackson Park closed tonight
and the official life OF the Fair was
brought to an end the most serious
problem remaining to be solved was how
best TO dispose Of the buildings Many
answers have been given, but as yet
nothing at all definite has been done.
However, upon one point all are agreed,
and that is that If possible some OF the
buildings should be preserved intact.
Ferd w. Peck, Vice President OF the
Worlds Columbian Exposition, speak
ing of the Exposition and the work OF
demolition, said: at surely will be a
wrong to the American public II those
magnificent buildings are at once turned
over to the destroyers. We have here a
lesson in architecture which should De
preserved. 1t may be impossible to
continue the Fair another year, but cer-
tainly we NAV retain the buildings.
II am in favor OF preserving the
court OF honor for an indefinite length
of time. This can be done without
great expense. 1 am told by Director
Of Works Burnham that for $4,000 we
can paint the perlstyle and the build
ings facing the court OF honor. II this
is done at once the staff will remain
strong for several years. The millions
who have enjoyed the beauties OF this
place this summer will unanimously
spprove the idea OF preserving it,"
