Ending OF the FtHbuster.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 28.-The estab-
lisument of a quorum in the House this
afternoon ended one of the most cele-
Orated and extended flibustering con-
tests of late years.
The Bland seigniorage bill was call
ed up in the House on the 95h inst, and
debated generally fer several days. On
the 18th the opponents of the bill began
to fllbuster by refusing to answer to
the roll calls, thus preventing the pres
ence of quorum. The Republicans,
under the leadership of Reed of Maine
refrained from voting, with the excsp
tion of few Representative from the
West, who favor the free coinage OF sll,
yer. The ranks OF the Republicans
were REINFORCED by all the Democrats
from New York and New England,
with few scattering votes from soma
of the other Northern State east OF the
Mississippi. On eVote by which Bland
secured quroum on his motion to take
up the bill for consideration, the fol-
lowing Republicans voted with the
Democrats and the Populists in the af-
frmatlve: Aitken, Bowers of Califor-
MIA, Broderick, Doolittle, Ellis, of Ore
gon, Funston, Hortman, Herman, Hill
born, Lacy, Lucas, Marsh, Plckler, Set
tie anG SWeet-1o.
Clancy, Cummings, Haines, Magner
and Tracey, New York Democrats also
voted in the aftirmative-rracey to
move a reconsic ceration. The negative
vote comprised Causey. McAleer,
Mutchler. Page, Pigott, Rusk and
Ryan-all Democrats. At 3 o'clock this
afternoon, when the presence of q quo
rum was established, the crowd was so
dense that the doors could not be closed
and scores of persons stood in the cor
ridors outside, unable even TO see the
floor beneath. Many of the visitors
were strangers in the city.

why would not the State Democratic
executive committee, which is COM
posed almost entirley Of Reformers.
answer
Because that committee represent
the entire party, both Reformers and
ants, and it cannot, with propriety,
organize one wing of the party,
against another"
Do you think it likely that the ants
will organize and put out candidates %
"lf there is unity and harmony and,
fair play among the Reformers, no
not for Governor or State officers, but
they are going to make desperate ef-
fort to control the legislature; and the
whiskey ring and railroads will furnish
a large corruption fund"
"Why do you think they will make
their principal fight for the l.egislat-
ure?"
THE whiskey people because they
want to repeal the D!spensary law, the
railroads in order to enjoy in security
the special privileges which they had
before was elected, of paying such
taxes as they saw fit"
What about national issues-Will
they cut any figure in the coming cam
paign?"
Most assuredly. Mr.. Cleveland is
using his patronage to strengthen the
ants wherever he can. and the gold
bugs will doubtless supplement the
railroad and Whiskey campaign fund
to any extent that may be necessary
"You think money will be used freely
then in the campaign?" ?"
"Oh, yes; all that can be placed where
it is thought it will do ary good"
Have you any fears ?"
"Not if the advice which I have given
in this interview is followed. The
Cleveland Goldbug Democrats and cor
poratlons cannot buy our people. The
r eform cause is as strong now as it
has ever been. With good leadership
our victory neXu summer will be re-
petition OF the cam paigns of 1890 and
1892"
"If the people instruct the campaign
committee to call nominating con-
vention, what would you adviser"
"Why, that is simple. Let the Re-
formers in each township meet and
elect delegates to a county convention
just the same as to Democratic county
convention. The balance of the pro.
graplme could conform in every respect
to the system adopted by the Demo-
cratic party as a whole"
"Under such circumstances would

Some, of course, are ready now to ig-

their fight at the November election,
but there are only few thousand OF

a Horrible Tragedy.

PITTsBURG, Pa, Feb. 28.-A terri
BILE tragedy was enacted at the Hotel
I2lffrl, at 5oS Smithfeld street, at $3.50
O'Clock tonight, from which Pitcher
McNabb, of IL e Baltimore club, is dead
and Louise Kellogg will likely die from
the result of the wounds received from
pistol IN the hands of McNabb.
Louise Kellogg was q member OF the
Alvin Joslin theatrical company, and
came here from New York today. She
met McNabb short time before $3.50
on Fifth avenue tonight, and they both
vent to the Hotel Eifel, where room
was engaged. A young man named
Gilien, a friend of both McNabb and
the Kellogg woman, went up to their
room about $50 to call on them. He
heard the woman grosning, and called
for help. AS it is right across from the
city hall, Inspector McElvy and sew
eral officers were soon on the scene.
The door was burst open and bloody
sight met their gaze. On the floor lay
the woman with three bullet wounds
in her head and neck. McNabb was
lying beside her with two shots through
the head that killed him almost Instant
ly. The woman was taken to the
Homeopathic Hospital. She can hard
ly recover. McNabb's body was re-
moved to the morgue. There was ire
a few doors above the hotel at the time
McNabb did the shooting This caused
much excitement in the vicinity, and
th0hotel people did not even hear the
shots fred. McNabb evidently meant
murder when he went to the room, for
be was only there short time before
be did the shooting.
Louise Kelloggs right name is Mrs.
r. E. Rockwell, and she has a husband
living at Seattle, Washington. Rel-
logg was her stage name. Her parents
live at Braddock, near this city. Unless
she regalns consciousness, the cause OF
the shooting may never be knoWn
Louise Kellogg, or Mrs. W. E. Rock
well, the Woman's right name, is the
wife of the president of the California
baseball league. From what could be
learned from young Gillen, after the
shooting, Miss Kellogg was endeaVoring
to break of her relations with McNabb.
A number of letters belonging to Miss
kellogg showed that she had been
keeping McNabb supplied with money
the past few months. The company
soe was with disbanded some time ago
and she came here with the probable iu
tention of either staying with her pa
rents il Braddock, or getting money
to tide her over until she procured
enotner engagement. McNabb met bel
here, and as the woman was probably
trying to break off her intimacy with
hina, this probably prompted McNabt
to shoot the woman and then himself

AWFUL FATE.
Crawford Butler Found D aad in an old
Field-Som, Circumstances That Make
the e .se a Li,sle Mysu ,rlous

AUGUSTA, Ca, Feb. 26.-Crawford
Butler. colored, was found dead out in
the territory Sunday morning.
The report was circulated Sunday
that man had been found frozsn to
death, but Chronicle reporters were un-
aole to verify the story.
The coroner was sought, but was not
found, nor could any news confirming
the report he had. at police hea d.
quarters the officers knew nothing
more than that there was such rumor
but up to midnight were not alberto
give any definite information.
The report was only too true, how.
ever, an unfortunate man, with too
much liquor aboard had fallen by the
wsyside and perished in the cold. His
body was found by John Smith in the
ditch that drains the Lafayette race
course near the site of the old dancing
pavilion. The absence of the mans
breeches gave rise to rumor5 and
thoughts of foul play, but an envelope
containing the remnants of weeks
wages were found IN bis vest pocket.
Through this it was learned that the
body was that of Crawford Butler. He
had been employed by Mr.. T. O. BroWn.
Therei Is still much speculation as to
the mans movement before his death.
His missing breeches" could no. be
found after a thorough search. AL
his other garments were accounted for.
The coroner held an inquest and Dr..
Morgan examined the body. There,
was only slight scratch on the knee
and nc marks of violence. The corpse
was found face down buried in the mud.
The man had been in Mr.. Dick
Timm's store the night previous and
being already in state of intoxication
the proprietor refused to sell him any
liquor. He was boisterous and often.
siVe and some of his acquintances per-
suaded him to leave and started him on
his way honna. He SOON lost his bear
ings, however, and wandered around in
the cold until he fell By the Wayside.
From drunkenness to death is an awful
fate.
The coroner's verdict was death

of intoXication."- ."-Chronicle.

tain n Scandal.

CHICAGO. May 23-Attorney-general Ma
loney this afternoon filed bill in the Cir
cult Court against Sister Frances. mother
superior of the Community of the Servite
Sisters, who conduct st. Mary's Seminary,
Van Buren, street and Albany avenue. The
suit is to recover real estate and property
valued at s500,00o Sister Veronica, formerly
a member of the community. and several
others, who claim they were instrumental
in soliciting the funds for the purchase of
the land and erection of the convent, claim
that the mother superior has conveyed to
herself the title of the property. and that.
when asked by Archbishop Feehan to re-
convey 1t to the Servite Sisters assert she
promised to do SO, but has not complied
with the request The Attorney-general de-
clares that it is clearly within the scope of
the functions of his office to inquire into
alleged abuses of trusts especially chari-
ties.
During the day a sensational scene oc-

mother ssperior's supporters, called ut the

read a bill that the Encouragement in

superior. Encouragement Maloney hap
pened in, and seeing the Sister reading his
bill in advance of its filing, became greatly
excited and ordered her out The Sister
emerged much agitated and fell fainting
in the office of attorney Matthew Brady,
across the hallway. Some time ago Sister
Veronica and several other members of
the community left the convent, claiming
that scandal was hidden within its walls

teacher in the seminary. Sister Veronic2s

HAMMOND. Ind. May 2s.-This city to-
night is crowded with Republicans gathered
for the purpose of attending the Tenth dis
trict congressional convention tomorrow.
Delegations from all parts of the district
are arriving, the largest being one of over
one hundred from Delphi, the home of cam
didate c. b. lands. Tomorrow morning
special trains will arrive from Valparaiso
and Logansport. Meetings were held to-
night by friends of both Johnston and Lam
dis, and were largely attended. On account
of many of the delegates not having yet
arrived. caucuses were held tonight
but have been postponed until tomorrow
morning, when each county will meet and
select members of the various committees.
The only contest will be that of this coun-
ty. The contest will be brought by the
Lands men, who claim the delegates select

chosen. on the ground that the convention
was not called according to the instruc-
tons OF the district central committee. An
other mass convention was held in this city
last saturday and an entire Lands deiega-
ton selected. An attempt will be made to
seat this delegation, and If this be done
the nomination of Lands Is assured, as he

IL could not be learned tonight who
would place Mr.. Johnston In nomination,
but 1t will probably be done by ex-AppeI-
late Judge E. ID. Crumpacker, of VAL
paraiso. Mr.. Lands will be placed in nom
ination by Judge Gould, of Delphi, and
will be seconded by Hon. John Ward, Of
Monticello.
There was some talk tonight of the spring
ing OF dark horse in the convention, but
this will probably not be done. Arrange
ments have been made to hold the conven-
ton in the opera house, which will seat
nearly 1900 people, but as that will not

OUR BRITISH CRITICS.
The London Press ON the Gold Emux
and Tariff Legislation.

LONDON, May 23.-The Times, in its
financial article. says: indifferent as the
American public appears to be to the great
effiux Of gold from the treasury, 1t is hard
ly too much to say that nothing but the
confidence OF the people in Mr.. Clevelands
sagacity prevents a premium on gold A
vote in Congress would be necessary before
a gold loan could be negotiated by the
government. and we cannot learn that any
steps have been taken TO drag in gold by
the ears from Europe in that manner.
The public here would certainly require
definite announcement that principal and
interest would be payable in gold before
subscribing for new issue of bonds, and
If that condition was complied with il
would not be necessary to come TO this
country at all. for the national banks
would then prepare to take the bonds"
The Chronicle says: There is a world of
meaning in the decision of the Republican
Senator's in the United States Congress to
allow liberty of action on the tariff
bill. The Chronicle argues that there is
little difference between the proposed bill
and the Mckinley law, and says the Re-
publicans think that If the Democrats now
make admittedly necessary changes IN the
much time and trouble when they come
into power Hard times have played sad
mischief with President Cleveland's policy,
for the continued exports of gold after the
silver l--y, TO which he ascribeG them, was
repealed have given the color of truth TO
the contention OF the high tariff people
that the free-trade agitation is responsible
for the paralysis of trade and the outflow
OF gold. The feeling has grown strong
and general that the time is not ripe for
a change in economic policy. and it would
be wise for British traders with the United
States TO adjust their business to the pros
pect of no material reduction in the pres
ent tariff
