HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.

Washington, March 2S,-The house
was in session today, notwithstanding
this was Good Friday. The industry OF
the lower branch of congress pfonted
little. however. The democrats were
again without a quorum, and the at
tempt to consider the O'Nei-Joy CON
tested election case was abandoned un-
til next week. f
The unanimous report in the What
ley-Cobb case, confirming the title of
the sitting member to his seat, was
adopted, and the military academy ap-
preparation bill was passed without de-
bate. The military academy bill carries
s4OO,4S6, a reduction of $4,000 compared
with the amount appropriated for this

THE SEIGNIORAGE BLL
President Cleveland Besieged
BY It's Friends And Foes.
FATE OF THE BILL IN DOUBT
Tho Majority of the Congressman
Favor the Signing of the Meas
Many Protest.
Associated Press.


Washington, March 23.-The situation
at the white house presents one strong
feature of novelty from the fact that
1t appears to be the scene Of a blood
less battle Just now between congress
men on one hand the large majority of
whom are urging the signing Of the
seigniorage bill, and the great CONNER
cial interests of the country on the
other. Twenty-nine out of every thirty
of the communications from them pray
for a veto of the bill. The congressman
have the advantage of personal pres
ence on the field, but the other side is
in evidence in great force in the large
number of letters received in the presi-
dental mail and of kilograms. These
communications by mail and wire are
coming from all parts of the country.
There were appeals for veto from
Cincinnati, st. Louis, San Francisco and
Salem, Ore. The president has up to
and including next Thursday to make
up his mind what to do with the bill,
and there are indications that he pro-
poses to use most of this time in
thoughtful consideration of the matter.
1t is certain he has committed himself |
to no man as respecting his action on
the bill.
