ernment because of the war, and the pro-
portion OF them paid during the 80 years

Breckenridge and Heard Have
a Lively Fight.
Something Resembling a Football
Rush in the Main Aisle.
The Offenders Brought Before the
Speakers Desk.

WASHINGTON, Feb. L. There was q
most exciting scene in the House of Rep
resentatives this afternoon, when Repre-
sentative Breckinridge OF Kentucky and
Representative Heard of Missouri came
to blows in the center aisle in
the middle of the hall. Representa-
tive Heard, who is chairman, Of
the committee on the District Of
Columbia, became angered because the
Hawaiian question was being brought
forward in the time devoted to his COM
mittee and attempted to secure the floor.
The beginning of the controversy was not
plain, but suddenly both members sprang
towards each other, Mr.. Breck-
inridge shouting: "You cur, scoun-
drel and liar" striking at
the member from Missouri q fierce blow
which missed him. Instantly they were
seized by others members but struggled
fiercely to get at each other, shouting,
"Liar." Mr.. Pence, of Colorado, seized
Mr.. Breckinridge by the throat
and Mr.. MacCready, of Kentucky,
climbed over several seats and

or four minutes there was wild scramble,
resembling football rush, while all the
members in the house poured into the
aisle and greatest confusion rcigned.
The pounding of the Speakers gaveI
could not be heard, but Mr.. Crisp's voice
rang above the tumult shouting: The
sergeant-at-arms will arrest the MEM
bers," and then, "the sergeant-at-arms
will bring ethem before the bar OF the
House,"
Deputy Sergeant-at- Arms Isaac Hill
rushed down the aisle bearing the great
mace followed by his assistants. The
two members were then brought
up before the speakers desr with
two men on each side holding their arms,
and Representative Dockery of Missouri
standing behind them. Mr.. Breckin-
ridge was exceedingly red in the face
while Mr.. Heard, who is a slender man,
was ashen pale and trembled like leaf.
In the course of an explanation to the
House, Mr.. Breckinridge practically chal-
lenged Mr.. Heard and demanded personal
satisfaction. Both Heard and Breckin-
ridge were forced to apologize to the
House.

to spend six or eight months abroad for
the purpose of studying Egyptology and
Assyriology, which he has prosecuted
more or less vigorously for 10 years, and
at the same time TO obtain a much needed
rest and change OF scene. In consequence
OF this desire DIR. Horton felt
constrained to resign his pastorate
and the meeting last evening bad
two-fold significance. Besides
being his last official act, the members
took advantage OF the opportunity of
time and place to show DIR. Horton how
dearly they regarded him by presenting
him check for little over $500, raised
by subscription.
The meeting began at 7:45 O'Clock with a
praise service, in which the songs selected
were chosen with special reference TO the
the desirability of drawing nearer to God
and each other.
DIR. Horton then stated that he had been
the recipient of many congratulatory
letters from friends, for which he was
very grateful.
Rev. William Murphy of the Edgewood
church offered prayer and DIR. Horton fol-
lowed with talk in which he gave his
hearers some good advice. 1t was an
earnest talk, just as he talks to himself in
his study, and affected his listeners
deeply. Ho told them that a minister
Is the sworn servant of the Kingdom of
Christ upon earth and should have but
one thought: the benefit OF the kingdom
of Christ, locally and generally. He
hoped they would give him credit for
having prosecuted that course. Since
coming to Union Church he had been en-
abled, by the grace of God, to see things
as never before, and when he leaves the
dreamed OF before. He hoped the feeling
was reciprocal; that they had grown In
grace together. "If that is So" said DIR.
Horton, "you ought to be worth better
pastor and 1 better church.
"If Christian wants to get ahead he
must get his heart cleansed of that which
has distorted truth. II you have the
slightest defect in your vision, you do
not sec IL In your vision, but in theiobject
you look at. We distort truth; what wo
want tonight is to have our vision cleared.
"We must be sanctificd and made meek
for the Masters use. We are not In
usable condition until we seek God day
by day and bring our hearts face to face
with him."
DIR. Horton then gave the members
sweet, loving, afiectionate farewell ad-
vice. He urged them to support the
church prayer meetings, saying that the
congregation helps the man. There is no
church sin, as such, he said, any moro
than there is national sin, as such. The
individual Sin mades the church sin. lie

every church i'm the State will look up to

hearts. A man knows when he lays his

said that ho thought the theory advanced
by the Attorney General was the most
probable especially from the nature OF the
tear in the clothes over the spot. The
tear was OF three cornered nature.

way in which the clothing was scorched,

small horse was seen on the Hartford
pike with a woman driving. There
was no man with her. Further O man

along this road with n bundle at point

States witnesses have testified that they

IL was in accordance with this
theory that Emily Chambers was not
murdered until late on Thursday evening.
A considerable part OF the cross-examina-

made no such examination, but Mr.. Pierce

At the offices OF the North German
Lloyd this morning there was no

Captain Gordon's Story.
ROTTERDAM, Feb. Captain Gordon
OF the British ship Crathie, which Is
generally admitted to have been the ves-
sci which ran into and sunk the Elbe, has
made statement to Lloyds agent here in
which he says that he was knocked down
by the force of the collision and that when
he regained his feet the two ships were
some distance apart and the Crathie so
damaged that he expected her to sink at
any moment. In spite OF this, Captain
Gordon added, he followed the other
steamer, but found that she went faster
than the Crathie and so he thought the
vessel she had collided with was safe.
