action was the outcome of challenge
thrown down by Richardson (Tenn.),
the minority leader. after the adop-

order for the consideration of the bill
which permitted debate on it until 4
o'clock this afternoon, but cut off all
opportunities to offer amendments, ex-
cept those agreed upon by the ways

of the rule had been preceded by q
stormy debate. In the course of which
the Democrats protested against the

free expression, not only by the Demo
Gratis, but by some of the Republicans,

the bill to amend the steel schedule
of the present tariff law. They also
charged that such q method of pro-
cedure was minimizing the influence
of the house and making 1t simply d
machine to register the DEGREES of
the few men in control. Babcock said
that he supported the program on the
ground that the issue presented for
the repeal of the war revenue tax
should not be complicated with other
matters. At the same time he gave
notice that he should press his own
bill at the first opportunity. Dalzell
(Pa.) scored point against the minor

New York, Feb. 1S.-New York city
has borne the brunt of the fercest
snowstorm that has struck this section
of the country since the great blizzard
of 1883. Beginning soon after mid
night the storm increased rapidly un-
til by daybreak the whole city was
completely showed under. The rising
force of the gale piled the snow In
great drifts that for time almost sus-
pended traffic except in the main thor
oughfares where the car tracks
were only kept open by the constant
use of snow ploughs and sweepers.
Communication between Manhattan
and Brooklyn was subject to long de-
lay. The ferry boats with difficulty
made trips across the ice choked riv-
ers and the work of tugboats, lighters
and shipping generally was almost at
q standstill So heavy was the snow
fall that the loading of vessels was
stopped, it being impossible to keep
the matches open. Two steamers
which arrived during the night strug-
gled as far as quarantine, where they
came to anchor. Several steamers
are supposed to be off Sandy Hook
waiting for the storm to abate before
attempting to enter the port. The
local weather bureau reports that the
worst of the snowfall is over. The
fall was 9.03 inches. In the afternoon
hurricane warnings were hoisted at
Sandy Hook and New York and many
vessels are detained in port. There
was considerable delay in the arrivals
of the mail.
The eastern part of New York state
from this city to the Canadian border
was swept by blizzard such as had
not been experienced for IA years.
Reports showed that 16 counties had
received the full force of the gale.
Anywhere from four to eighteen
inches of snow, wind at hurricane
rate. drifts from six to In one instance
Is feet deep are among the features.
while there is iteration and reitera-

reports indicate that the worst is over,
for the wind is abating and in many
places the show has ceased falling.

HANK CLEARINGS.

From the prominence which Atlanta
is giving her bank Clearings in her
newspa pers it would naturally be in
ferred that in that respect she is far
ahead of any other city in the state.
As d matter of fact she is away be
hind Savannah. Her clearings were
not anywhere near those of Savannah
in any month OF last year. OF course
there is no use to make a comparison
of the bank clearings of the two cities
for any other year, because it is prob
able that Atlantas were much larger
last year than ever before.
In January of last year Atlanta's
clearings were $11,051, 707.92 while those
of Savannah were $21,294, 903.99 In
February Atlanta's were $9,151, 1888
and Savannah's $17,372, 39O.25. In Octo-
Der Atlantas were $1332o,S64.9S and
those of Savannah $21 1884 ,303.23, In
December Atlantas were $9,499, 1879. 80
and Savannah's $16,374,143.49.
There is no occasion to go through
all of the months of TIE year. The
foregoing shows plainly enough that
Atlanta is far behind Savannah. In
fact, the total for the year shows that
Atlanta has no occasion to be pluming
herself on her bank clearings. For the
year just closed Atlanta's were s10S,
527,617.9S and Savannah's s1S0,615,-
206.93. In other words Atlanta's were
only little more than half of those
of Savannah.
We suppose that Atlantas purpose
in giving prominence to her bank clear
ings is to create the impression in
Congress that her business justifies her
in asking for a sub-treasury. If the
getting of the sub-treasury depends
upon the bank clearings she will not
be in the contest.
In view of the fact that Atlanta re-
Gently obtained the penitentiary and
has been the beneficiary of other gov
eminent appropriations, and the fur
Their fact that Savannah has been try
ing for several years to get sub
treasury. it would be but fair on the
part of Atlanta to step aside and leave
the way clear for Savannah in this
matter. OF course if both cities in
sist upon having it neither will get
it. 1t is probable that Savannah would
have had it before this time if Charles
ton had not undertaken to get it soon
after Savannah made application for
it. Now that Charleston is practically
satisfied with the naval station, and
her opposition Withdrawn, Atlanta
comes forward as a competitor, OF
course she has d right to do this, but
in view of the fact that if both cities
contend for it the probabilities are
that neither will be successful. it
would be a graceful act on Atlanta's
part to withdraw her application.
