PROCEEDINGS IN THE HOUSE.


Considerable Opposition to the "F1Llcd-
Cheese" BSU.
WASHINGTON, D. c., April 1o.-Gen-
eral debate was concluded to-day upon the
"hlled-cheese" bill, which was begun yes.
teroiay afternoon, The chief advocates of
the measure were Grosvenor (R.) of Ohio,
Tawney (R.) of Minnesota and Dolliver
(R.) of Iowa. It was opposed by McMil-
Ian (D.) of Tennessee. Otey (D.) of Vir-
ginia, Evans (R. of Kentucky, Linney (R.)
of North Carolina and others.
The bill will be further consi dered to-
morrow under the tive-minute rule for
amendment. The objection of several of
those who spoke to-day was not to the
principle of the bill but to the extent of
taxation sought to be imposed.
Efforts will be made to reduce the rate
of tax and the schedule of licenses, and if
this be accomplished the opposition to the
bill will be comparatively feeble.
The appropriation bill for Notifications
and coast defenses for the year ending
June 30, 1897, was reported by Hainer (R.)
OF Nebraska, and placed on the calendar.
Among the bills passed by the House
was bill appropriating $3.50 to repay
]. ]. Limits for money withheld from his
salary as custodian of public property at
Erie. Pa, in 1872, for loss of property for
which he was not responsible.
At 5 o'clock the House took q recess
under the rules till o. clock, the evening
session to be for the consideration of pri-
vate pension bills.
The evening session of the House was
marked by slight outbreak in the Repub-
lican ranks against the policy of increas-
ing the pensions of widows Of general off,
GERS. Several such bills had been acted on
by the House in committee of the whole
and when the last one came up MCCALL
(R.) OF Tennessee said that if that policy
was to be continued, while widows of
private soldiers could get no such consid-
GRAFTON, he, for one, did not propose to at
tend any more Friday night sessions.
Picker (R.) OF South Dakota, replying
to McCalls remarks, said the maximum
limit OF the pension Of the widow of pri-
vate soldier had been increased from SO to
$50 month, but there had been no in
crease of the limit of officers widows pen
sions.
A lively colloquy occurred between Pick
ler and Hemenway (R.) Of Indiana, the
latter of whom questioned the statement
OF the former regarding the committees
action on bills. PickIer declined to be in
terrogated by Hemenway, and the latter
cried, lyon don't dare to permit ques-
tion," to which Pickler replied that the
gentleman did not want any information;
that he had misrepresented the committee
in what he said.
During the evening nine bills were acted
upon in committee of the whole and three
OF them we're passed in the House before
the hour of 1880 caused an adjournment
until tomorrow.

ARRESTED For CRIMINAL LIBEL
Saturdays issue of the DeIaware Econ
On1ist, a paper that was started during
the campaign to advocate free silver in
Wilmington, contained an article stat
ing that the Single Takers had sold out
to j. Edward Addicks, and that DR.. N.
L. Slaughter, the Single Tax candidate
for Governor, had been purchased by
Mr.. Addicks to withdraw from the race
in favor of John H. Hoffecker. The
article attacked in the most bitter man
ner DIR. Slaughter, who is a leading
physician of Wilmington. When DIR.
Slaughter read the article he went be-
fore Magistrate Daley and swore out a
warrant for James A. Powers, publish
er and editor of the Economist, charg-
ing him with criminal libel.
DR.. Slaughter, after stating that it
was an effort at blackmail said: 1 am
informed by friend that Fred Eden
Bach inadvertently remarked in his
presence that there had been 500 copies
of the Economist left at the Higgins
headquarters, for use as campaign
literature. 1t was a dirty attack.
do not think any of my friends will be-
lieve any such accusations against me.
To those who do not know me, 1 will
say that the article is unqualifedly
false, and 1 shall see that its author is
punished, if there is any law to do it.
