and Albert NJ. Johnson, has begun suit
in the Superior Court against the National
Gold Bank of D. o. Mills & Co. for dam
ages in the sum of $4,000.
The complaint alleges that the plaintiff
was in December, 1892, merchant doing
business at the corner of Seventh and j
streets in this city; that he had, by atten-
ton to business, built up a large trade
and carried stock of goods worth up
ward of $4,000; that on the 9th of De-
cember, 1892, he was indebted to defend
ant IN the sum of 1000 on promissory
note, to secure which Mrs. Anna 2. Orth,
plaintiffs mother, assigned to the de-
Iendant promissory note made by AL
1red Ioland to l.. S. Taylor and secured
Dy mortgage on piece of land in Ell
dorado County of the value of S724 SO.
Inc complaint goes on to state that on
the date mentioned the defendant levied
an attachment on plaintiffs stock, alleg-
ing that the latter's Indebtedness to the
bank was not secured; that said action
destroyed plaintiffs reputation as mer-
chant and caused other creditors to levy
attachments, by which his business was
ruined and he was rendered hopelessly
lnSOlvent.
Plaintiff complains that defendants al
legation that the banks claim was unse-
cured was false and without probable
cause; wherefore he prays for judgment

Special to the RECoRD-UNIoN.
WASHINGTON, March so. - When
Speaker Crisp assembled the rostrum to-
day he was given a rousing reception
from members on both sides of the house,
the demonstration lasting fully minute.
The battle of yesterday afternoon was
promptly renewed by Mr.. Reed on a
challenge of the correctness of the jour-
nal in failing to show Mr.. Payne's point
of order on the question of but one teller
acting.
On rising vote the journal was ap-
proved, and on call of ayes and noes the
previous question was ordered and de-
bate limited to fifteen minutes on either
side.
After the speech by Mr.. Reed regarding
the Speakers ruling yesterday, Mr..
Reeds motion to amend the journal was
voted down. The vote on approval of
the journal showed quorum.
Mr.. Reeds motion to adjourn was de-
cided out of order, and the Speaker de-
clined TO entertain an appeal, and again
refused to state the ground of refusal,
holding that no member has right to in
quire the grounds of a decision any more
than a lawyer has to demand the same
thing of Judge.
That looks very much like tyranny"
remarked Mr.. Reed, sarcastically.
The next episode was the overruling of
Mr.. BoutelIe's point of order that the
Presidents message vetoing the seignior-
age bill could not be read, the House
having made the contested election cases
the special order.
Again the Speaker refused to entertain
an appeal. The veto message was then
read.
Mr.. Bland gave notice that next Tues
day he would move to pass the bill over
the veto.
During the roll-call on Mr.. Burrows
motion to reconsider the vote by which
the House had declared Mr.. Joy not en-
titled to his seat, Mr.. Reed, standing near
the Clerk, said he would like to be per-
nljtted to see the roll-call taken.
This was resented by the Speaker, who
sharply ordered Mr.. Reed to his seat, and
directed the Sergeant-at-Arms to enforce
the order, as Mr.. Reed did not move far
enough to suit.
This is entirely unnecessary" replied
Mr.. Reed, looking the Speaker in the eye.
sit is not" replied the Speaker. In
stead of taking your seat, you respond
every time.'
Certainly do, because the Chair has
attacked me-" said Mr.. Reed, now thor
oughIy aroused.
There seems to be an element of per-
sonal hostility in the clash between the
two leaders. Later on the Speaker pro-
tested that he had not understood Mr..
Reed to prefer a request for permission
to stand by the Clerks desk, and with
this semi-apologetic explanation the in
cident closed.

SEVERAL SACRAMENTO DECISIONS.
The Supreme Court UphoIds the City

Judgments Affirmed Also in the Wit
tenbrock-Parker and the Hoppe
Appealed Cases.

The Supreme Court has rendered a de-
cision in the case of Henry Wittenbrock,
appellant, VS.. John Parker, James Bith-
ell, G. w. Harlow ct al, respondents.
1t was an action by Henry Witten-
brock as plaintiff to have satisfaction of
mortgage set aside and Cancelled, and to
foreclose said mortgage, which was exc
cuted by Parker. Bithell and Harlow set
up mortgages in their favor, which were
adjudged valid against Parker, and prior
liens TO the plaintiffs mortgage. Plaintiff
appeals from the judgment.
Taylor d Holl were in partnership at
the time Wittenbrock loaned the money,
and when Parker wanted portion of the
land released on part payment of the
loan, Wittenbrock signed, as he sup
posed, a released for that portion of the
land, which was drawn up by Taylor, but
which actually read that the mortgage
was fully paid and satisfied. Bithell after
wards loaned money on the strength of
the abstract, which showed the satisfac-
ton of Wittenbrock's mortgage.
The judgment and order are affirmed,
