EDITORIAL LETTER.

WASHINGTON, D. 0., Feb. 3d, ’90.
DEAR GAZETTE :—The democrats of the
House used up all of last week in a school
boy contest with Speaker Read. In the
absence of special rules“ the speaker has
taken the commbn sense position that if a.
member is present in his seat, though he
refuses to vote he is still present in fact,
and under the rulings of parliamentary
law can be and should be counted to make
a quorum. To this the exasperated demo-
cratic member rebels with open insolence
and abuse of the speaker, but Reed is not
to be shaken by any such wind and good
naturedly bears their insults and anathe-
mas. Some of his republican friends
think it would have been better politics
possibly to have avoided this issue until
the specral rules were adopted, but it is
said in his defence that .he was made
aware of the fact of an organized deter-
mination on the part of the democratic
members not. to permit any of the con-
tested election cases to be considered, in
which there was a possibility of a demo-
cratic member being unsealed, till the end
Of this congress next year. Mr. Reed also
gives as his version of the deferred rules
dispute, that it is owing to the continued
absence and illness of Congressman Ran—
dall and the open hostility Of Carlisle, the
only two democrats on the committee, that
the republican members of that committee
have not reported them to the llouse and
put them on their passage by the brute
force and power of numbers. Had he tak—
en this course he is of the opinion that the
country would have been divided between
the two parties on the issue, and felt that
the minority were being pushed tO the wall
or made to submit to undue hardship,
whereas by the. present course if they do
not want to be counted as present to make
a quorum they have only to absent them-
selves from their seats. NO one doubts
that any effort to pass the special House
rules, adopted by the republican majority
Of the rules committee, would be resisted
by them with all the fillibustering tactics
known to parliamentary warfare. Carlisle
has led the turbulent warfare, while
Bynum has given vent to the grossest
outbursts of ill-temper and Billingsgate.
Meantime the big fat face of Reed has not
loSt its good natu.--d composure and
dignity, while he calmly remained master
of the situation. In Thursday’s debate
McKinley said : “When gentlemen sit in
their seats and refuse to perform a public
duty they are repudiating a great public
trust.” Continuing he said that Mr. Car-
lisle, as speaker, had repeatedly signed
bills and resolutions which had never re-
ceived the constitutional majority. . He
had done it over and over-again, and done
it, too, when the public record of the
House, as announced by himself, showed
that less than a majority of the House
had voted. The democrats wanted the
Journal to declare a lie. The republicans
wanted it to declare the truth. It was
about time to stop this legal fiction. Let
members be honest with each other. Let
them defeat a bill in a constitutional way,
by debate, by amendment, by a yea and
nay vote expressive Of their judgment.
The controversy was to determine whether
a majority should rule and govern, or be
subject to the tyranny of a minority. Talk
about the tyranny of a majority. The
tyranny of the minority was infinitely
more odious. The position of the gentle-
men on the other side meant that they
_would either ruin or rule, though they
were in the minority, The republicans
insisted that while they were in the major-
ity the other side should do neither. We
have settled one question at a great deal
of cost that the minority could not rule in
this country, and we intend to settle, if we
can, in the broad light of public Opinion
and in the presence of sixty millions of
people, whether the constitutional major-
ity Of this House shall do the business of
the House.” At 5:30 p. In. Saturday,
after much confusicn and eXcitement, it
was decided that each side should be
allowed three hours for debate tO—day,
and with that understanding the House at
6:40 p. m. adjourned.

IN THE SENATE.

The echoes of Senator Ingall’s speech
do not seem to have died out from the
Senate chamber, for little ‘else but discus-
sions of the negro issue, and his treatment
of it. was discussed last week. Senator
George, whose two sons were shown to be
among the armed rulfians who drove
the negro voters from the polls in Missis-
sippi, took issue against the passage of the
resolution of inquiry concerning that and
the Aberdeen outrage.

Senator Chandler urged that it was the
right of the Senate to obtain full informa-
tion upon all occurrences affecting the

_pu‘c good wherever and whenever they
happen.

It was at'this point that Senator Ingalls
rose With a rich, ironical sneer and said:

“I have no comment to make upon the
Eulogy. prono'undedlby the Senator from
MISSISSlppl upon the patriotism and good
conduct of the city of Aberdeen. I have
only to add that whatever their sentiments,
three or four hundred of them stood idly
by and saw the man castigated without
protest. The victim was not a citizen of
the State of Mississippi. Had he been I
do not know but that I would have been
willing to leave the settlement of the affair
exclusively to that State. The man was a
Citizen of Indiana, peacefully pursuing a
legitimate vocation in Mississippi. And
we are told that we have no right to in-
quire by what manner and for what pur-
pose the people of Mississippi thus out-

raged him. I say to you had the victim i eyes and-heavy hearts, hoping in vain for

of the outrage at Aberdeen been a citizen
of Kansas, as he was of Indiana, and did
it appear that the State government of
Mississippi, or the Government of the
United States had'refused to avenge the
wrong perpetrated upon him, I guarantee
that the. people of Kansas would have tak-
en it into their own hands to see that he
had reparation.” .

When this reserved shot was fired the
well filled Senate galleries broke out into
aloud and indecorous burst of applause.
The manner and emphasis of his utterance
as well as the words he Spoke, made this
the most sensational speech for many a
long day.

Senators Vance and Hampton essayed
an argumentative reply to the Ingalls ora-
tion, Thursday afternoon, but the com-
mon verdict was that the twain fell far
short of a worthy or a satisfactory answer
to the Kansas senator’s indictment. Sen-
ator George, it is said, will get into the
fight again this week with an elaborately
prepared speech and as he is a bold and
daring debater it. is expected that he will
make it interesting at the least. The es-
sence and final, conclusion of the Vance
argument was, to use his own words, for
the North to “keep hands Off and let the
nigger alone, and the South where he was
and which had to deal with him, would
attend to and settle the whole question.”

The Senate has set aside to-day for the
consideration of the Blair educational bill.
It comes up at 2 O’clock as the unfinished
business of the Senate, and it will con-
tinue to come up at 2 O’clock each day
.until it is disposed of.

ATPOI'NTMENTS.

C. N. Daniels was sent to the Senate,

Thursday, as postmaster for Willimantic,
Conn. Mr. Miles had reasonably expect-
ed the Pre~ident to send the name of Mr.
George B. Edmonds, for collector Of the
port of Bridgeport, on the same day, but
for some reason ‘he did not do so. Mr.
Edmonds will be the appointee unless the
Wishes of our congresmaii, fortified by
both senators, are overridden by the Pres-
dent.
. The appointment of ex-Senator Bruce a
recorder of deeds Of the District of Colum-
bia, an Office akin to our Connecticut
Town Clerk, is not in the nature of a
surprise, for the impression was very
general that this selection had been ever
since the appotntment of Fred. Douglass
as minister to Hayti, virtually determined
upon by the President. Mr. Bruce is an
exceedingly competent man, and one of
the best types of his race. He has attain-
ments of a high order, is experienced in
public affairs, and possessed of unques-
tioned business ability. There is, of
course, much disappointment at the Pres-
ident’s decision, but that the office has
fallen into honest and capable hands
nobody will question.

Hon. William H. Taft, the President’s
new Solicitor General, is a son of Judge
Alphonso Taft, of Ohio, and a lawyer of
ability. He is identified with the con-
servative wing of the Ohio Republicans,
but owes his appointment more to his
abilities in his profession than any especial
political influence. Mr. Taft is at present
one of-the leading attorneys of the Queen
City.

Charles C. Lodewick, of Connecticut,
the postal card agent at Birmingham, has
been removed, and Charles M. Newton. of
Middletown, has been appointed to fill the
vacancy.

' NEW EMIGRANT STATION.
Governor’s Island will replace Castle
Garden as the landing place of immigrants
arriving in this country at the port of New
York. Secretary Proctor is entirely wil-
ling to permit a portion of Governor’s
Island to be used as an immigrant station,
and to transfer the control of the island
or a part of it, to the Secretary of the
Treasury.

SENATOR EARRWELL’S POSITION.

In an interview Senator Farewell states
that it was true that Mr. Clark was con-
firmed Collector of the Port of Chicago
last Thursday, while he was not in the
Senate. He said that he consented to it
because his defeat would have punished a
worthy citizen. He added that the Pres-
ident's nomination was a very astonishing
and unusual thing, and in making it, be
ignored the wishes of the entire Illinots
delegation—not even consulting one of
them. The President seems to think, the
Senator said, that the offices belong to
him personally, and not to the people.

PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
The architect of the Treasury is ready
to report on the bill introduced in the
Senate by Mr. Platt, and in the House by
Congressman Miles, for the erection of a
public building in the borough and anoth-
cr at the city of. South Norwalk. Of
course the architect declines to give out
the nature of his report in advance of its
submission to Congress, but it is easy
enough to conjecture what it will be.
There is no possible chance to get an ap-
propriation for two public buildings in
Norwalk at this session, as both Water-
bury and Danbury are ahead of us, having
had their petitions presented to the fifti-
eth Congress, and being so consolidated
and united as to require but one. If all
Norwalk could unite on some such plan as
New London has and as was tried for New
Haven at the last legislature, one public
building could be obtained. Never two
in one day and generation.
AGAIN IN DEATH.

Still sitting in the shadow of its great
sorrow over the recent death of Walker
Blame, the great secretary’s household is
plunged into a deeper abyss of affliction
over .the death of the eldest daughter,
which occurred at her father’s residence
here Sunday morning. Like her deceased
brother she was ill but a few days, and as
her life ebbed away the family gathered

 

around thi. death bed with tear bedimmed

some Sign of recognition. The scene is
described as heart rendiug. Her husband,
who had just reached her, her father and
mother and other members of the family
were utterly crushed with their grief.
Mrs. Coppinger was born about 30 years
ago in Augusta, Me., where her early life
was spent. She attended Miss Reed’s
Seminary, in New York, from which she
graduated Willi high honors. Since 1882
Mrs. Coppinger has resided in Washington.
She was married to Lieut.Col. J. J. Cop-
pinger February 30, 1883, in the house
erected by Mr. Blaine near Dupont Circle.
She leaves two boys, Blaine and Connor.
The funeral will be held at St. Matthew’s
church tO—morrow morning at half past
10 o’clock. Rev. Thomas Sherman, son
of General Sherman, will conduct the ser-

vices.
Most truly it is said that not only the

heart of the immediate circle, in which
they are esteemed so well—of the commu-
nity in which they command such univeri
sal respect—but of the whole country, to
which the stricken family is known by the
public services of its honored head, will
throb in genuine unison with their grief,
and with sincerity that pulsates unquali-
fied and unrestrained in the face of calam-
ities that level all distinctions, and make
all mankind akin. In the death of this
beloved daughter, following fast upon the
departure of a son by whom he set ines-
timable store, the tenderest sympathy of
friends, can shed but small illumination
upon the darkness of afilictions thus pain-
fully duplicated,
DEATH AND HORROR.

Early this morning a sickening horror
spread the affrighted city. The terrible
burning of Secretary of the Navy Tracy’s
house and the destruction Of his family
drove the sad and sorrowful Blaine be-
reavements out of the public thought and
dazed the populace. The wife and the
youngest daughter and a maid dead, and
the secretary saved as by a miracle after
becoming unconscious from suffocation.
Such is the horror. At noon today to the
President was assigned the painful duty
of breaking to the partially revived secre-
tary the terrible story of the ruin of his
beautiful home and the destruction of his
family. The sick man here the recital
with wonderful fortitude, though unable
to conceal his intense anguish. The daily
journals will furnish our readers wrth a
full account of the calamity. We have
known but two calamities occurring here
hearing any semblance to this event or
evoking equal consternation and universal
sorrow. One was the explosion of a' can—
non‘ on board the U. S. steamer Princeton
Rbruary 28, 1844, a few“‘mont'hs before
our first visit to Washington. Secretary
of State Upshur, Secretary of the Navy
Gilmour, Commodore Kennon, Hon.
Daniel Gardner, of New York, and three
or four others were killed and a dozen or
so wounded. President Tyler and all the
other members of his cabinet and many
ladies were on board but escaped injury,
The other occasion within our experience,
and the most awful experience and awful
night of our life, was the assassination of
President Lincoln, and the attempt on the
lives of Secretary Seward and Secretary
Stanton. God spare the nation from a
further repetition of these blood curdling
horrors. But——

“Never stoops the soaring vulture,

But another vulture watching

Sees the downward plunge and follows,

Till the air is dark with pinions.

So disasters come not singly,

When the first descends, the others

Follow, follow, gathering flock-wise,

First a shadow, then a. sorrow, _ ,1 ~

Till the air is dark With anguish.”

- CONVENTIONS. .

A large convention of colored delegates
from all parts of the country are in session
here today considering matters affecting
the welfare of their race.

The National Woman’s Suffrage Con-
vention delegates are fast filing in, and
Aunt Susan B. Anthony is to have her
70th birthday celebrated to-morrow.

A convention of the Post Oflice Clerhs’
Association of the United States meets
to-day. They are an earnest body of men,
who believe they are more poorly paid
than any other class of officials, while
they have harder duties to perform. Dele-
gate Parker, of St. Paul, aptly says there
are laws to prevent cruelty to beasts, and
why should there not be to prevent cruel-

.ty to the human family ? Delegates from

the New York city post Ofiice assert that
Postmaster Van Cott is in full sympathy
with the postal clerks, and had advised
and encouraged them in their efforts for
relief and justice. In his office large num-
bers of clerks are forced to work from ten
to sixteen and sometimes more hours per
day and every Sunday and holiday bc-
sides, and yet under existing legislation
by congress he is powerless to help it.
The convention will recommend to con-
gress a definite number of hours fer a
clerk’s day’s work and a moderate increase
of present salaries.
Tans DINNER.

The dinner of the Yale Alumni Associa-
tion here last. week was a brilliant affair.
The success of the dinner was due in a
large degree to the happy choice of Sena-
tor Edward 0. Wolcott, of Colorado, as
presiding Officer. His hearty, cheery na-
ture, his contagious laughter, his brilliant
sallies of wit, and his extremely happy
introductions, gave a zest to the occasion
that could not well have been excelled.
The speeches of Senator Evarts and ex-
Attorney-General McVeagh‘were replete
with witty allusions, eloquent periods, and
appropriate stories. The other addresses
were in the same vein, and elevated. the
dinner above ordinary occasions of the
kind. ‘

WARM WEATHER.

 

The meteorological summary for Janu-

'i.

ary, just issued by the signal oflice, show
it to have been the warmest January since
1871, which is as far back as the records
go.

Cabot Lodge, of Massachusetts, and Elijah
Halford, President Harrison’s secretary,

birthday. '

Secretary Noble was up to the Senate
to urge Senator Plait to hurry through a
bill providing for a code of municipal
laws for Oklahoma so as to prevent
threatened and, as the secretary thinks,
inevitable bloodshed.

Hon. and Mrs. Thomas C. Plait came
over from New York to be present at the
dinner given by the postmaster-general
Friday night.

Senator Allison has returned from Iowa
and says that his fences are all right.

Among the interested gallery listeners

Haven, He, with his wife, are quartered
here for the winter.

Ex-Gov. J. B. Foraker, of Ohio, return-
ed tO the city yesterday and took up his
quarters at the Ebbitt. The governor is
here to attend the session of the ballot box
forgery committee that resumes to-day.

Mrs. Senator Aldrich, Of Rhode Island,
and Miss Aldrich gave one of the most
charming teas of the season on Friday
afternoon. Among those present were
Senator and Mrs. Platt, Speaker and Mrs.
Reed, and the Misses Farnum and Per-

kins, of New Haven.

Proposg~ d Railfoad Improvements.

In a long article describing What the
different railroads in and around New
York propose doing this year in the way
of improvements, the New York Sun

says :—

The New York, New Haven and Hart-
ford Railroad “has a number Of hens on, ’
as one of their officials expressed it, but
the chickens don’t walk yet. One of the
schemes concerns the Harlem River termi-
nal and probable connection with the Man-
hattan Elevated and Suburban road, with
a special view of bettering the facilities
for reaching the Morris Park race course.
The Sun has received information that the
New Haven road bought up the water
front on the northern side of the Harlem
and just west of its present station as far
as the Third avenue bridge. The pur-
chase is said to take in the entire block
bounded by Third avenue, Southern
Boulevard, and Lincoln avenue. This is
said to have been acquired some time ago,
but President Clark denies that they have
bought anything recently in that neigh-
borhood. It would make a handsome and
convenient depot site, but the company
will probably wait until Morrisania de-
mands a good-sized station.

In the meantime a temporary station is
likely to be built east of Lincoln avenue
in the old yard, and if arrangements are
completed with the Manhattan Elevated
and Suburban, which are likely to become
one at no distant day, a spur of the ele-
vated will run into the New Haven yard
and swing‘ around alongside the same
platform which the Harlem River trains
leave. The tracks of the New Haven
road would probably be brought in on a
gradual elevation to about the same height
as the Manhattan tracks. The passenger
simply crosses a platform to change cars.

Among the other works of the company
are those of equipping the Harlem branch
with block signals, abolishing grade cros-
sings on the main line, and double track-
ing the Shore line. The Central and New
Haven officials want to make the most. of
the room at the Grand Central station.
Possibly no ground will ever be annexed
to it, but more tracks can be put down by
narrowing the platforms, and they are
talking about throwing all the waiting
rooms into one union waiting room, using
the entire front of the building and .put-
ting the New Haven baggage rooms on
the Vanderbilt avenue side.

The Judicial Centenary.

Yesterday, in New York, occurred the
Centennial Anniversary of the first meet-
ing of the United States Supreme Court.
The commemorative exercises were held
under the auspices of the New York State
Bar Association, and similar associations
of the several states, Ex-President Cleve-
land presiding.

A Remedy for the Influenza.

A remedy recommended for patients
afflicted with the influenza is Kemp’s Bal-
sam, the specific for coughs and colds,
which is especially ada ted to diseases of
the throat and lungs. 0 not wait for the
first symptoms of the disease before secur-
ing the remedy, but get a bottle and keep
ti on hand for use the moment'it is needed.
If neglected the influenza has 'a tendenc
to bring on pneumonia. All druggists se 1
