ISayard's { sse.

Washington, Jan. 30.-No decision in
the matter of censuring Ambassadors
Bayard was attained to-day by the
house committee on foreign affairs,
but the discussion upon the question,
which absorbed the entire hour. was
one of the most interesting which that
committee had INDUCED in for a long
time. The members were practically
opposed along party lines, as these dis
patches yesterday predicted that they
would be, the republicans urging a
resolution of censure and the demo-
Gratis standing by the ambassador
The discussion is said by members Of
the committee to have been much
warmer than usually characteriZes its
sessions. Pearson suggested to the
committee a resolution which censured
Ambassador Bayard very strongly.
Newlands of Nevada proposed to
amend this by asking the president to
recall the ambassador. McCreary and
Money of Mississippi. both democrats,
took the principal parts in the discus
slon Their chief argument was that
the matter was one for action by the
president, II any steps were to be
taken to censure Bayard, and that the
house would be encroaching upon the
prerogatives of the president IL it
adopted any of the resolutions naming
the ambassador.

LADIES CATCH A BURGLAR.
Remarkable Courage of Misses Burch au
HttChcoCIt

Remarkable Courage of Misses Burch aud
Hitchcock.
The heroism Of Misses s. NJ. Burch
and Florence Hitchcock, two of the
capital city's popular young ladies, is
the talk of the neigh borhood on Noble
and Ash, where the young ladies re-
side. They experienced an encounter
with burglar on Friday night, during
which the nocturnal maurader was
captured and is now in the custody Of
Uncle John Foster, hostler for L ui,ed
States Attorney Brooks.
The burglar is nothing more nor less
than a monster 'possum. In fact, it is
the biggest possum ever seen in the
city.
For several weeks this possum has
been making its rendezvous about the
Hitchcock home. In few days he
made warm friends with the chickens,
and in a weeks time crawled up on the
poarch of the Hitchcock home and ate
corn with the poultry. The possum
grew fat and saucy. The ladies finally
resolved to catch the animal Friday
night up came the possum with the
chickens for his evening meal. The
ladies were nervous and timid at first
and hesitated about surrounding his
possumship. However after an hours
dallying, the ladies perfected trap
and quicker than a wink the 'possum
was a captive II was a heroic catch
and the young ladies are TO be eongrat-
ulated on their courage Having no
use for the bird, the ladies presented
him TO Uncle John as Christmas pres
ent. Uncle Johns mouth is running
like sap in a maple tree in the spring
in anticipation Of seeing that 'possum
eneircled with sweet potato flligree on
Christmas day.
