REED MAKES MANY POINTS.
An Efi'ort to Adopt Rules Under Which
Congressmen N’ot Voting May Be
Fined—Senator Pefl‘cr Delivers .
Another Tariff Speech.
WMHING’toz-r. April 13.-——Both sides of the
chamber showed a very good attendance
when the senate met today. During the
transaction of the routine morning busi-
ness Senator Kyle (S. D.) introduced a
joint resolution proposing a constitutional
amendment gelative to marriage and di-
vorce, which was referred to the commit-
tee on judiciary.
The urgent deficiency bill was taken up,
and the last paragraph, to provide for uni-
formity in the letting of government con-
tracts for Supplies at \Vashington, gave
rise to considerable discussion, as did also
the glragraph for the printing of an ab-
stract of the eleventh census. .
Mr. Manderson moved to strike out the
clause, as he' argued - that the abstract
would be but a, duplication of the digest
already ordered.
The motion \ms agreed to, and the bill
. nsamended was about to be put on its
final passage when the hour of 1 O‘clock
arrived, and the question Went over, while
the tariff bill was I before the senate.
Mr. Peffer was I'GL gnized and delivered
the third installmcnt Ol‘ his speech on the
tariff bill.
. In the House.
The Democratic managers in the house
today decided to take heroic measures to
force the Republicans to participate in the
proceedings.
The committee on rules, consisting of
Speaker Crisp, Messrs. Out-hwaite and
Catchings (Dems.) and Messrs. Reed and
Burrows (Reps), held a meeting just be-
iyre the house convened and formulated
a rule to crush filibustering, making the
penalty of failure to vote punishable by a.
e.
The Republicans having cognizance of
the rule by which their hands were to be
tied before. the meeting of the house,
Messrs. Reed and Burrows determined to
contest every inch of the ground, ands
fierce parliamentary fight was immedi—
ately precipitated. Speaker Crisp, how-
ever, was in no humor for trifling, and
with a stern hand he swept aside all pre-
‘fiminaries and forced the fight on the main
fesuc.
As soon as the journal had been read he
recognized Mr. Catchings from the com-
mittee on rules to present the report.
Mr. Burrows attempted to raise the point
of order that no quorum was present, but
the speaker held that the journal having
been approved the point of order could not
he made save ona. vote upon some pending
aneétion.
-\\ '
. (Burrows then; tried a flank movement
-
O
with a. appeal from the decision of the
chair, and the speaker declared that. he
could not take Mr. Catchings 011‘ the floor
for that purpose. ' -
Mr. Reed came forward at this juncture:
and manifested a. disposition to hold :1
joint debate with the'c‘hair, but lhcspa—zilacr
declined the invitation and d h-cctcd. ll|~

tion. ~ _. ->
Mr. Reed was left standing in the aisle
while the speaker took the rising vote. The
Republicans declined to vote, and when
the speaker announced the result, 99 to
nothing, Mr. Burrows made the. point of
no quorum. _ ‘
The yeus and nays were demanded. The
Republicans determined to force the Dem-
ocrats to produce a quorum at‘every stage
of the parliamentary proceedings looking
to the adoption of the rule and when the
roll was called declined to vote.
Eleven of the Democrats refused to give
the proposed rule their approval and voted
against the demand for the previous ques-
tion.
The announcement of the vote, 141 to 11,
showed that the Democrats were 37 short
of a quorum. ‘On motion of Mr. Catchings

' a call of the house was ordered.
At 2 o’clock the situation in the house
was anomalous. During the proceedings
to determine who the absentees were un-
der the call of the house a motion was en-
tertained and a. roll call was had on a. mo-
tion to excuse Mr. Hulk
This motion could be followed by others
Of the same character until the names of
all the absentees (over 100 in number) were
exhausted. Each roll call consumes half
an hour, so that the filibuster can be ex-
tended into the indefim‘te future. The
Democrats, however, say they will stand
fast until the rule presented today is
adopted. _________________

forms of men. He lived in that direction,

in stamps. Stamps and money not de-
stroyed by the explosion were found in

Opposed to Mexican Dollars.
\VASHINGTOH, April Ill—Our consular
agent at Iloilo, Philippine islands, reports
that the Spanish authorities there are takv
ing steps to prevent the surreptitious in-
troduction of Mexican dollars into the
islands. If these dollars are of date pre-
vious to 1878, they circulate locally as Span-
ish coin. So the government has made a
decree that upon arrival at the islands
captains of vessels must declare what
amount of foreign silver coin or Spanish
coin bearing Chinese marks they have
aboard. Failing such declaration, the
coin, if found. will be confiscated, recoined
and; its value paid to the informers and
custom officials.

not be seen at this popular theatre.
The lesson of the play is, that a bus-
band is never wise in deceiving his wife
in important matters, even with the
best of intentions; the wife is sure to
find out that she is being deceived, and
her suspicions may lead to worse troub-
les than the whole truth could have
brought out. The acting was superb

HOMES FOR EVERY ONE.
Motiodjiy Whicli'Men of Moderate Means
Can Acquire a. House and Lot.
No better employment for capital can
be conceived than in the erection of
homes for laboring men. It has been
tried in a. few towns and proved a success
from every point ’of view. It is not a
philanthropic work, for it pays in_ money
a profit upon the investment made, and
a Shylock might. engage in it without
compunction, providing he be satisfied
with the legal rate of interest. The de-
parture, however, best befits honest cap-
ital in that it tends to dignify labor and
prevent anarchy.
A man. cannot live in a hovel and be
a good citizen, for careless surroundings
beget bad habits and breed lax princi-
ples. Children reared in slothfnlness
, never turn out well. There is a. spirit in
honest toil that rises above a shanty and
seeks the comforts and conveniences of
a. framed dwelling with carpeted floors,
one surrounded by the greensward Of
thrift and backed by the garden of pros-
perity—a. home, in fact, that may right-
fully be called thc owner’s castle. Neat
dwellings can be built in most villages
at from $400 to $500. . Adding from $100
to $200 for a' lot does not make an in-
vestment so large but that the most or-
dinarily paid laborer could soon acquire
title. At $10 a month, which sum would
little exceed rental value, the $500 house
and lot could be bought and paid for in
four years. A small boy carrying papers
could earn that cmomit. Four dollars a
week 'would pay for the $3900 home in
five years. - r,
A liberal policy pursued upon this
plane by the wealthy men of a town
Would result in placing hundreds of
homes in the hands of laborers who un-
der no other conditions could ever aspire
to the proprietorship of the house in
which they lived. The benefits of this
system 2' e capable of being demonstrat-
ed by any village that has the sagacity
and enterprise to undertake it. An ab-
solutely safe investment is obtained for
capital, usually in a territory where val-
ues increase rapidly; the wage earner
easily becomes the owner of property
that is worth, when paid for, a respect-a-
ble percentage. more than it cost him;
the manufacturer is insured a reliable
and intelligent class of employees, and
the community has the satisfaction of see-
ing every man his own landlord. This fa-
vorable condition of affairs renders labor
troubles next to impossible. Very nat-
urally the man who has invested his
earnings in a house and lot can see noth-
ing to be gained in the idleness attend-
ing strikes, find all the arguments of
modern agitators will fail to convince
him that his first duty is to his union
rather than to his family.
