lence manifested itself in the House
to day, the result of the combined hot

teresting incident of the session was the
attack of MIR. Grosvenor, rep, of Ohio
upon the, cOndition in the army, the e&-
istence of which made possible the recent
conviction of Private Cedarquist. in the
department of the Platte, who refused to
obey an order to engage in target prac-
tice on Sunday In the course of Mr..
| Grosvenor's statement il was developed
that President Cleveland had taken hold
of the matter, ordered Cedarquist's re-
lease, and that the fine against him be
remitted and that the officer who issue
the order for Sunday target practice be
himself arrested and tried for disobedi-
ence of President Lincolns order of No
vember, 1862, which has been the law of
the army ever since.
