IN THE HOUSE.
The Anti-0ption Bill Gives Pence Chance to
Talk Silver. ~

WASHINGTON, June 2l.-Speaker Crisp
is still unable to discharge his duties, and
today Mr.. Bailey again took the chair.
Several bills were passed under requests
for unanimous consent. Charles NJ. Ander-
son of Ohio was elected manager of the
National Soldiers Home in place of Gen.
Bartlett, same state; Sidney G. Cook, Kan
sas, in place of f. N. Morrill,; A. d. Pear
son, Pennsylvania, to succeed himself.
At the House proceeded, in committee
of the whole, to further consider the anti
option bill. Grosvenor was the first
speaker. He advocated the passage of the
bill. At the close of Grosvenor's speech
an arrangement was effected by which two
hours will be given tomorrow to the con-
sideration of the bill and introduction of
amendments under the five-minute rule.
Chairman Hatch is to have an hour to close
debate. Covert followed in a speech
against the bill. The discussion was con-
tinued by Stockdale in favor of the bill,
Bartlett in opposition.
Pence plunged into the silver question at
once. Since Congress voted last year on
the question, there has been some notable
conversions. The chief among them was
the leader of the Republican party in
the House, the gentleman from Maine
(Reed.) He desired to welcome the gen.
tleman to the silver mems ranks. 81 am
sorry, however," said Pence, '.that he has
seen fit to take only one degree. But one
degree is better than none. / have no
doubt the Republican party will ultimately
support free coinage of silver, but not until
driven to it." After further debate the COM
mittee rose and the House adjourned.

PERFECT BEDLAM
Describes Last Nights Demo-

Beane Faction Utterly Ignore the
Rights Of PIaisted Party.


HALLOWEEN, June 2l.-(Special.) }

shall Nash.
This is where the trouble began. Mr..
Stinson took the floor and exhorted for fair
play. He was ignored by the chairman.
All was turmoil and wrath. The old City
hall never witnessed a more riotous pro-
ceeding. For fully 10 minutes perfect
bedlam prevailed.
As soon as quiet was restored, the vote
was announced as being so, for the follow
lowing Beane delegates f. l.. Beane, ID.

A FIERCE WIND STORM
Swept Though Lincoln, Neb Wednesday
Night, Doing. Great Damage.

LINCOLN, Neb., June 2l.-This city was
visited by one of the worst storms in it's
history last night. The wind blew with
great violence. For the first 10 or II
minutes there was no rain, the air being
filled with dust flying missiles, paper, bas-
kets, pieces of wooden sidewalks and
branches of trees. Two narrow escapes
from death are reported and many painful
accidents. The velocity of the wind was
81 miles an hour.
The greatest damage will probably be to
shade trees along the streets, the loss in
this respect being almost incalculable.
Trees were broken off close to the ground
in many instances and almost denuded of
branches in others. In many places the
sidewalks were torn up and the progress of
street cars impeded by fallen trees. Bill
boards and exposed signs were thrown down
and many outbuildings and roofs carried
away.

ARMY OF POTOMAC.
The Quarter Centennial Anniversary
Celebrated at Concord, N. H.
Gen. Miles Pressnt-lmmense Abundance
Soldiers shaviaa Grand Time.

CONCORD, N. H., June 2l.--The quarter
centennial of the Society Or the Army of
the Potomac began here this morning.
Major General Nelson A. Miles, u. s. A.,
president of the society, and members of
his staff with other distinguished veteran
officers, arrived here Tuesday. More came
yesterday and on early trains today, many
being accompanied by ladies.
The city presents gala day appearance,
the capitol, soldiers memorial arch, City
hall, business blocks generally and many
private residences being decked with por-
traits of army officers and war scenes,
banners, flags and bunting. The dccora-
tions are by far the most elaborate and
beautiful ever seen here.
Work in the larger manufactures was
entirely suspended managers having granted
the employees a holiday in honor Of the
occasion.
The weather was perfect for a summer
day and in consequence there was large
number of visitor from surrounding towns
who thronged the streets. Particularly con-
spicuous in the crowds were many wearers
Of the Grand Army and Loyal Legion but
tons; and it is safe to say that there were
more veterans here today than has been in
Concord since the war. It 10 equally GER
tain that there have never been so many
distinguished officers Of the Rebellion to-
gether in this state as are now honoring the
capital city with their presence.
At 1890 the assembly, the first formal
step in reunion exercises, took place at the
State House. The veterans gathered in
Doric hall, where the New Hampshire bat
tie flags are deposited, and exchanged fra
ternal greetings; some Of them for the first
time since the colors under which they
fought were turned over to the state. Then
followed q reception by Gov. Smith in the
executive chamber, all members of the
society being presented to him.
At II the First Brigade, N. H. N. g.,
accompanied by battalions Of high school
cadets from Concord, Manchester and
Nashua paraded in honor of the society and
paid Gen. Miles a marching salute. Be-
tween 1l.30 and 1.30 corps meetings were
in order and the annual meeting and re-
union of the society opened in Representa-
tives hall at 2.30. Gen. Miles and staff
witnessed review of the brigade by the
governor of the encampment. Later the
members of the society and ladies were
given q drive in the suburbs.
Gen. Alger was elected ~president of the
Society Of the Army Of the Potomac.
