Laughaple Incident in the House of
Representatives.

WARRINGTON, May 13.-The river and
hsrbor bill was taken up as soon as the
Senate convened today, the agreement be-
ing that the fInai vote be taken at 3 p. m.
The pending question was Mr.. Gorman's
amendment directing the secretary of war
to so apportion contract appropriations
that not more than $40, 100000 be ex-
pended on contracts in any one year.
Before proceeding Mr.. Vest tDem.,
Mo-, gave notice of a min ority report on
the .fiiled cheese" bill, by himself and
senator's Walthall OF Mississippi, Harris
OF Tennessee, Jones OF Arkansas and
White of California.
The bill was passed for the appointment
N'f guardians for pensioners In the Dis
trict of Columbia found to be ''squander-
vicious habits"
Proceeding with the river and harbor
bill, Mr.. Vest opposed the German
amendment, declaring that ii would per-
init the secretary of war TO nullify the
river and harbor bill ana TO substitute
his opinion in lieu OF that OF Congress.
He did not believe there could be part
izan in the chamber who would give such
autocratic power TO cabinet officer. He
had never known secretary of war to
whom he would extend such vast power.
While be was Democrat and knew the
expenditure; would be made by Demo-
cratic officials up to March 3, next, yet
that was not factor TO be considered, as
he opposed any such abdication of power
-br- Congress and its transfer to one
official.
The amendment was defeated ',y vote
of 40 to %.
In The House.
Mutual explanations about important
private bills which Mr.. Pitney of New
Jersey and Mr.. Evans of kentucky has
called up and which has been objected to
by each OF these gentlemen, occupied the
time of the House at the beginning OF
today's session.
MIR Wheeler, Dem, Ala, followed this
incident by retalisting upon alr. Payne,
Rep. N. H., who yesterday, supported
resolution to eliminate from the per-
manent records 1nterpoations in his
(Wheeler' r's) remarks. He offered a resolu-
terpolations in the remarks by Mr.. Panye
Rep, n. Y, made yesterday.
Scan You point word in the record

~ can," replied Mr. Wheeler. lie then
proceed to point front the steno-
grapher's notes places where Mr.. Payne
had interpolated here and there a word
and had occasionally changed a noun
from singular TO plural. The House
laughed immoderately at the signi.i ance
of the changes alleged to have been made
and Mr.. Wheeler was repeatedly called to
order. but he succeeded IN going into
general defence of the charges preferred
against him vest erday.
Mr.. Payne made no reply to Mr..
Wheeler, who at the conclusion OF his re-
marks withdrew the resolution. The
House tEen resumed the consideration of
the Rinaker-Downing contested election
case from the sixteenth Illinois district.
Mr.. Cook (Rep., Ill., continued his
speech in favor of the contestant.

FINANCIAL NEWS

NEw..YoRK, May 13-The mar ket again
demonstrated its unwiliingness to ad-
vance. The London lead was enough un-
der ordinary conditions to have made a
strong day, but the realizing in st. Paul
and the absence OF buying elsewhere
showed traders that the easiest money lay
onrfhe short side. The talk of an Eng
lish- Russian difficulty may have had some
trading influence, but 1t was observed
that London bought stock after the news
must have been known on the other side
The rumor of a Cuban message was util-
lied again, but without being credited to
any body. The crop news from Kansas
proba bly, affected Missouri Pacific.
The action of the German reichtstag
bearings OF the netter was too well un-
derstood for the news to have much un-
favorable effect.
Tne selling OF Chicago Gas reflects tired
holders who are disappointed not only
with the general situation, but with the
large interest account they see footing
against them. There Is no sign that a
dividend will carry the stock for while
yet 1t is argued that the stocks can be re-
covered at lower prices with some profit
