Mr.. Livingston rose to a privileged
question and said: Under Rule 9,when-
ever the dignity of the House is in
volved, it is a,question OF highestpriv vilege
/ make the point that the dignity OF this
House is at stake, and badly and serious
tlemen are sitting on this floor and not

brought to the bar of the House and
made to VOTE"
The Speaker pro tem-aThe dignity of

any rule other than that which the

Mr.. Reed" And it is not very large
dignity either"
Mr., ,Liyinetson-"T desire to say
that this rule stands on the same footing
AS the rule with reference to disorder on
the floor of the House. If the gentle
man from Maine, Mr.. Reed, was out of
order on the floor and the Chair should
order him to sit down and he did fall
to do it, there is no rule of the House by
which you could make him sit down.
Yet you know you would do it and IT is
often done, and always DONE There is.
no necessity for any further rule to
make man vote than you have already
in this code of rules adopted by the
House."
The Speaker pro tem-"If the House
adopted rule which prescribes that a
memb Der must vote when his name is
called, and member refuses to do it,
the Chair has no power to compel the
mem mber."
After some additional talk, the matter
was dropped, and, it being evident that
no further progress could be made today,
the House adjourned until tom orrow.

Buda Pest, March 22.-The new Ma
tional Theatre tried to give perform
ance this evening despite the general
mourning for Kossuth and the closing of
other places of public entertainment.
The students warned the manager
against opening the doors. He obtained
double force of police to protect him,
and had the house opened. The first act
of the play was half done when 200 stu
dents attacked the police at the door and
drove them off after sharp struggle.
They demanded that the curtain be low
cred and the black flag raised over the
theatre. Many of the audience threat
ened to made fight against the students
Some women left the house and three
tainted. To avoid riot, the manager
hurriedly complied with the demands of
the students and suspended the per-
fOrmance. The students, in mob, then
left the theatre and moved up Karoly
street to the barracks, where a group of
students from the Royal opera house in
formed them that the opera was being
given as usual. All started for the opera
house, shouting that the performance
must be stopped. An extra force of DO
lice was stationed at the opera house.
The students charged the police and
beat them back, but were unable to
break through the ranks of the police to
the theatre doors. They shouted and
hooted SO loudly that the performance
was hardly audible in the opera house.
and after a few minutes was suspended
completely. The police reserves were
then called up. They forced the mob
back and down Andrassy street. Most
of the students left the neighborhood.
but half an hour later the students re-
assembled with reinforcements, and re-
turned to the attack. They drove back
the police. and after sharp struggle ran
jeering and groaning, into the opera
house. They shouted that the perform
ance must close at once. The manager
promised to stop if they would leave the
house, but they refused to 60. During
the confusion the curtain fell, and the
singers hurried from the place. The au-
dience dispersed panic stricken. The
students hoisted the mourning flag over
the building after everybody else left.

GREsHAM'ss LATEST.
A New Chinese Treaty Which Arouses
Great Opposition.

Washington, March 22-The new
Chinese convention, negotiated by Secre-
tary Gresham and Minister Yang Yu is
receiving vigorous opposition from Sena-
tors and there seems strong probability
of it's rejection When the matter was
brought before the foreign relations
committee of the Senate it was in the
nature of surprise. After the nomina-
tions referred to the committee were dis
posed of today, Mr.. Davis of Minnesota,
said: "Had we not better take up the
Chinese treaty?" This was met by
chorus of "what treaty?n and denials on
the part of members of the committee of
the existence of any such convention.
The discussion that ensued showed that,
with the exception of the chairman, Mr..
M.rgan, and Mr.. Davis, no one knew of
the presence, either in the Senate or
committee of the treaty. The proposed
treaty was condemned by Senators from
the West as entirely one sided and un-
lust to the United States. 1t prohibits
the coming of Chinese to the United
States except upon certain conditions
which are set out in detail and permits
the return from China of any citizen
that may have a lawful wife,
child or parent residing in the United
States or who may have property or
debts due him aggregating $1,000 The
only return given the United States is a
pledge of the Chinese government to
take greater precaution to stop the COM
ing of Chinese laborers to this country
Senators who have seen the treaty or
know what purports to be its terms look
upon it as an utter abrogation of the
Scott exclusion act and notification
of the Greary law.

Rio Janeiro, March 22.-President
Peixoto has revived the imperial DEGREES
Of 1888 and 1851. These decress authorize
the execution without formal trial of all

A MOB IN SANTANDER.
The People Incensed by the Explosion In
the Sunken Wreck.

Santander, March 22.-People believe
that last nights explosion of dynamite
on the submerged wreck of the steamer
Cabo Machichaco was due to careless
ness. A bowling mob surrounded the
residences of the civil governor and en-
gineer in charge of the work of remov-
ing the dynamite from the sunken hulk.
The governor and engineer erected barri-
cades, and troops dispersed the mob, but
the crowd soon re-assembled, with
great augmentation of numbers. Troops
were hurriedly called from several ada
cent towns. Before they came, the
crowd somewhat quieted down. The
authorities are unable to get divers will
ing to go down and examine the hulk.
An,inquiry into the cause of the explo-
sion has been ordered by the government
The general belief is that the disaster
was due to carelessness on the part of
the divers. Some think the explosion
was caused by electric light wires used
by the divers
