A FIRE DIscLosEs A SrILL.-A novel un.
derground whisky still was unexpectedly un.
carthed at Ida, Page county, by the burning
of the house of John Redmond. few days
ago. The neigbbors assembled upon the alarm
of fire and the Ingenious apparatus was ex.
posed. Redmond is an ex.convict Two tun.
nels had been dug from his cellar to a race
close by, one to supply water and the other to
carry off the refuse. A furnace with fifteen
gallon still was built, and the flue leading to
the chimney OF his house carried the smoke
off in most natural manner leaving not one
suspicious feature. The hue, which ran
through the flooring, set the woodwork or
fire, and hence the loss of his house. Illicit
whisky had been sold for some time in the
vicinity, and now the matter is no longer g

of Florida, against the right of appoint.
ment by the Governor, Mr.. Hoar, of
Massachusetts, who has charge Of the
report, called for vote upon the reso.
luton for the admission of Mr.. Mantle
Objection was made, however, by Mr.
Vance, of North Carolina, and finally
unanimous consent was given that a
vote shall be taken on Monday next at
5 p. m.
After a brief executive session the
doors were re-opened and the House
Joint resolution for the payment Of
mileage to Senators and Representa-.
tiyes for the extraordinary session was
taken up for action.
Mr.. Vest expressed his opposition
to the joint resolution, arguing that the
law did not justify the payment OF
mileage at the present session.
In his opening prayer this morning
the Chaplain of the House alluded to
the death of Mr. Chapman, of Michigan,
aud invoked the divine protection on
the bereaved family.
The silver debate was then resumed.
Mr.. Daniels spoke in favor of the re-
peal of the purchasing clause of the
Sherman act. Terror, he said, had
taken hold Of the public mind that dis.
aster was bound to follow from the ac-
emulation of silver bullion in the
t .easury. This fear had been supple.
mented and voiced by the President.
Congress should convene to give some
measure of relief to the people by
changing the financial policy. For the
past IA years this accumulation of sill
yer had been going on. Instead of sill.
vpr going ii to circulation, it had gone
into the treasury, and there it remain
ed as q useless article as far as cur,
rency was concerned. The people had
become confident that the law Of 1880,
which has succeeded the law of 1873,
should be repealed.
Mr.. Daniels was followed by Mr.
Cooper, Florida democrat, who an
nounced himself as opposed to every
proposition made by the silver men
and for unconditional repeal.
Mr.. Goldzier followed Mr.. Cooper
with speech in favor of repeal. At
the conclusion of his remarks the death
of Representative Chipman was an,
uounced by Mr.. Weadock, of Michigan.
The usual resolutions were adopted
and the House, as mark of respect, at
1.5O p. m, adjourned until tomorrow.

THE STORY OF A WATCH.
Taken From a Lady's Dressing Case
and Found In Muddy Pool on
First SOnth Street.

An individual who Ia said 10 answer
to the name OF IL. T. Kirkpatrick, Bert
Xix and other aliases Is In the city
jail, having been arrested last night
under rather interesting and some
what sensational circumstances. He
has been stopping at the Grand
Central lodging house In this city for
some time. He incidentally met and
made the acquaintance OF Miss Matte
Lane, Ia this city, and last evening
called to see her. Miss Lane was
absent ut the time, but her
watch and silver dollar
were on her dressing case.
When she returned they were missing
anu she unhesitatingly charged kirk
or kirkpatrick with stealing them. He
strongly denied the THEFT but was ar
rested by Officer Schultz and taken to
the police station. On the way 10 Jail
Nightwatchman Tom Dobson detected
theprisoner throwing something into n
pool OF muddy water ON State street
anu First South street. At the police
station the prisoner was searched but
the missing property was not In his
possession. The pool on being dredged
gave up the missing chrOnometer and
now the prisoner IL wondering what

THE STANTON CASE.
An Adjournment Taken Until 1880 this
Evening.-MsJoriiy and Minority
Reports Looked For.

The Stanton investigation was TO
have been resumed In the Council
chamber at 10 O'Clock this morning,
but for some unexplained reason the
proceedings were cut abort Mt com.
nencenent by Councilman Kelly.
The whole Of the committee except
Lawson was present and his absence
was explained by the statement that
he was on n "still hunt" for some
startling evidence which he will be
prepared to introduce at the meeting
this evening.
Some Of the councilmen whose love
for the accused chief Is OF u dwarflsh
character complained today that the
committee allowed the introduction of
testimony against the complaining
witnesses by the defense which In
no way could be construed, they
say, TO DO cotemporaneou with she
charges againbt Stanton. They con-
tend that II the committee permits the
unearlhing OF ginning skeletons In
the early career OF McIlroy,
something outside Of the regular
charges should be admitted against
Stanton.
The chief and his friends are conf
dent that he will be exonerated, and
tho indications are that the majority
Of the committee are with him. 1t Is
rumored, however, that there will be u
red.hot minority report, signed by one
andprobably two members Of the com.
mittee.
At the meeting this morning Kelly
announced that Stenographer Vanden.
berger was sick and could not attend,
whereupon another shorthand writer
was sent for. He arrived In few
minutes, but Kelly informed him that
his services would not be needed, as the
committee would adjourn until 7
O'Clock this evening.
