WARRINGTON. D. O., Fob. 1.-The per.
uoual encounter between Mr. Breckin.
ridge, Of Kentucky, who 6gurod In the
notorious breach Of promise suit las
summer, and Mr.. Heard. OF Missouri,
who has been 4 member OF tho house
for ten years, an account OF which il
given elsewhere in the Associated Press
dispatches, overshaiowed in importaucs
all else that occurred in the house to.
day and wa, almost the only theme Of
conversation.
An hour was devoted to debate on the
Pacific railroad bill, a resolution was
adopted calling on the President for all
correspondence and information regard,
ing the alleged aid furnished the rebels
in Hawaii by representatives Of the
British government and ths remainder
Of the day was consumed by the Dis.
tsic. OF Columbia committee.
Then Mr. Breckenridge, in his usual
tone with great coolnest, said: II had
desired to say few words OF opposition
to the resolution but had not had time
10 do so."
He would in the future have occasion
to say something upon it Then Mr..
Reilly pa shouted regular order,
and attsr the speaker had with difficulty
persuaded the members TO take their
seass, Mr.. Hit went back to hi, speech
on the Hawaiian resolution.
Mr.. McCr.ary made \ brief reply in
the course OF which he and Mr.. Hit
got into good.na.ured vranele, Mr..
AcCfeary conteuding that the Hawaiian
cable, OF which Mr.. Hit had spoken,
had nothing to do with the question.
Then the resolution was adopted with.
ont division and with little opposition.
Then Mr.. Springer (Dem. Ill. and
Mt. Cox (Deu. Tenn became involved
in discussion over the status Of the
report upon the administration cur
reacy bill. which Mr.. Springer asked
permission 10 report. Mr.. Cox thought
the report would cut of the minority
from the right TO present Its yiewa. Mr.
Reed was demanding to know docs the
gentleman from Tennessee object to the
reportT when Mr.. Tracey, OF New
York, shouted to him, the gentleman
from Tennessee is able to take care OF
himself" adding that "he Reed want
ed to queer the whole thing"
Thereupon several members made a
feiut of holding Mr.. Tracey back from
Mr.. Reed.
The report was received with permits.
sion given To the other members Of the
committee to file views.
Then Mr. Heard, as chairman Of the
District Of Columbia committee, called
mp district bill. Mr.. Bel,zhoover,
PA chairman OF the committee on war
claims, made fight against the district
committee because it had been given
the day usually set apart for his CON-
mit.ee. He declared that he had come
to tho conclusion that no man got his
rights in the house unless he fought
for them and he intended in tho future
10 stand up for his rights, 90 he de.
inanded the yeas and nays on the first
bill.
Tho remainder OF the day was con.
sumcd by the Diatrict OF Columbia com.
mit;ec. Seven bills .wers. passed..
