the Indian territory to secure. by con-
domination or otherwise. lands necessary
to public improvements, was passed.
Mr.. Allison Of Iowa reported the sundry
civil bill, and announced that he would cali
it up for consideration tomorrow.
Consideration was then resumed of the
measure making further provision for a
civil government for Alaska, the pending
question being upon a substitute offered
by Mr.. Hansborough of North Dakota, for
a part of an amendment offered by Mr..
Perkins of California.
AT this point the floor was yielded to Mr..
Wolcott of Colorado, chairman Of the COM
mittee on postoffices and post roads, as
he desired to make statement. He made
a remarkable and caustic arraignment of
the secretary Of the treasury, on account
of the secretarys flippant treatment of q
request made by Mr.. Wolcotts committee
Mr.. Wolcott said that on March 10th the
committee on postoffices and post roads
had asked the secretary of the treasury
for his opinion on postal savings bank
system. A similar communication had been
sent to the postmaster-general and a cour-
teous and extended reply in due time had
been received. The views of the secretary
of the treasury upon the question were
particularly desired by the committee, as
it was expected that some opinions of
value would be presented. After waiting
for an unusual time, the committee, Mr..
Wolcott said, had received the secretary's
reply.
Il have to report to the senate" said
he, that the reply was of such nature
that I have been unanimously instructed
by the committee to respectfully return
it. Before it was sent to the committee it
was given to the newspapers. 1t was not
of character in consonance with the i'm
portance of the subject. The whole cir
cumstances of the case are most remark
able. 1 will not ask here to have the letter
of the secretary read. 1t was fiippant and
impertinent, and has no place in the rec
ordis of this body"
Mr.. Wolcott then asked that the entire
correspondence on the subject be printed,
and it was so ordered.
Mr.. Gallinger of New Hampshire and Mr..
Frye of Maine strenuously antagonized
the Perkins amendment, while Mr.. Wilson
Of Washington supported 1t.
At this point Mr.. Caffery of Louisiana
was recognized and concluded his speech
on the national quarantine measure.
After Mr.. Caffery had finished Mr.. Per-
kins withdrew his amendment to the Alas
kan bill, and the measure was passed.
At 1882 p. m. the senate went into execu-
tive session, and soon afterward adjourned

ASCHNER LOST HIS ROLL
A POKER GAME THAT DID NOT
PAN OUT


Morris Aschner is out $500, and his heart
Is fiatter than his pocketbook. He lost it
as the result of a quiet little poker game
last night, but 1t was not across the green
cloth that he separated himself from his
money Officer Fowler was indirectly tho
cause of Aschner's loss, but In causing the
latter a loss the officer did good turn BY
saving C. w. Clark about $780,
About Q o'clock Fowler decided to take
a look into the poker rooms run by Asch-
ner at 1879 North Main street. The officers
beat is on North Main street and he gem
orally tries to keep posted about what -
taking place in his district. The door was
locked, but soon was opened to tho onicer's
knock and that official had not been IN the
room half q minute before he sized UP the
situation. At the table were five men, ono
of whom was Clark, an old mining man
from Arizona. The others were gamblers
and Clark was there to be divorced from
his bank roll. The game had proved very
profitable previous to the entrance o.
Fowler, for Clark had lost $225, but still had
$3.50 in his pockets. Fowler looked into the
hand of Clark and saw a flstful Of Jacks.
what do you think they will buy yours
asked the officer.
"Oh, l don't know, that's a pretty goo0
hand" replied Clark as he reached down
for a hundred dollar bill to raise the Lass
bet.
"Well, it might be in your country" obs
served Fowler. but 1t amt worth any
thing In this place." And then Fowler very
properly proceeded to stop the game. He
took Aschner to the station. In tbe room
was a young man known as Harry! Ne
was not an emp!oye. but had been .
hanger-on for some time past. Harry &C.
companied Aschncr and the officer to thS
station, but on being denied admittanoe,
bethouSht himself Of an easy way to make
some money. He hurried back to the poker
room and there went to one Of Aschner's
men, a young fellow, to whom Aschnet had
Entrusted his bank roll, amounting to $sJ0,
Harry breathlessly informed the custodian
that Aschner needed the money at once,
and was rewarded by having the money
turned over to him. Then Harry lost his
way, and instead of going to the police
station left for parts unknown. Aschner
was turned loose and devoted the balance
Of the night in trying. unsuccessfully, to
find the missing Harry.
