An Exciting Seen on the Floor of the
House Tom .loluison OiipoM-a the Cor-rt-nrr
Kill Ittmwt, v. A. Slime and
ttther Ala Attack the Measure.
Washington-, Jau. 9. The house sea
siti was sint in gem-nil debate on thi
currency bill and the opponents of the
measure had their iuniufeti. All the
Ieakers except Representative Cox
Teim.) antagonized it. The feature of
Hie day was the sjieech of Mr. Sibley
(Hum., Pa.), who made an attack on the
the president and arraipned the Demo
cratic party generally for drifting away
from- its traditional "moorings. His
Bpi-ech created much confusion and a
g deal of a sensation.
Mr. Tom" Johnson (.) also create a
stir by affirming the proposition that
the bill either created a monopoly to
issue the legal tender money of the
country, or was a failure which would
give dishonest bankers under the law to
defraud the rover nmeiit.
Mr. Bland (Mo.) made an earnest
spei-c-h against the bill from the stand
point of free sliver.
The other sjieakt-rs were Messrs. Beltz
hoover (Dem., Pa.). V. A. tiUme (Rep.,
Pa.), Morse (Rep., Mass.) and Coffeeu
iDeui., Wy.).
Mr. Sibley duriiif? the course of his
siM-ech said: "If ever a rebuke was
needed to one who has attempted to
trample down the prerogatives of the
people, it is needed for him who has at
tempts! to usurp this entire government
to himself. The time has come when
there should be something more than
brains, belly and brass to this govern
ment." He referred to George III. and said it
had been given out that anyone who
voted against this bill would "incur the
displeasure of the king. Four days
after the repeal of the Sherman act
memlKTS had told him that they had
been promised revenue collectorships if
they would vote for repeal.
"The gentleman makes a very broad
assertion," interrupted Mr. Coombs,
(Dem.. X. Y.) and asked Mr. Sibley to
mention names
"Every man is the guardian of his
own conscience," declare 1 Mr. Sibley.
"Already the padlocks have been on my
lils too long, and I intend to throw
them off."
"When were the adloeki put on
your hps?" interrupted Mr. Oufhwaite
(Dem., O.)
There wa great confusion and ex
citement following the question.
"I have nt thrown them off before,"
continued Mr. Sibley, "because I hoped
to s the administration redeem its
promises and I did not wish to utter re
buke when there was hope of honest per
formance." Mr. Outhwaite had pushed forward
and again uttered his p",tiou: "Who
put the padlock on your litis?"
Mr. Sibley hesitated for a moment
and then with intense earnestness, said:
"Let me tell the gentleman that I am
not talking today to men who believe in
going to hell in a handeart instead of to
heaven supported by truth. Let me tell
him also that I am not addressing men
who believe more in a bobtail flush than
a contrite heart."
A shunt of applause and laughter
greated the statement.
Mr. Sibley proceeded to relate the ex
perience of Dyonisins when he was again
interrupted by Mr. Onthwaite. "Was it
Dyonisins who put the padlock on your
lips?" J
Mr. Sibley made no reply bnt con
tinued at length in the same "strain.
Mr. Johnson iO.) explained whv he
believed the bill, if it could be enacted
Into law. would prove a monstrous fail
are. He denied that this bill was de
signed to take the government out of
the banking business and asserted that
no bill could be devised ft r sound cur
rency issues which would not place
them under government sujjervision and
in effect nuike them alternately redeem
able by the government. It was the
office of the government to furnish
money. This bill proposM to confer on
banks without limit a right that could
only be conferred on a monopoly. It
gave them a monopoly or it was a fail
ure. He attempted to" demonstrate that
the bill would confer the same monopoly
on the banks that the Bank of England
and the Bank of France had. This was
true because the greenbacks and treas
ury notes on which circulation could be
taken out were limited in number.
There were but 475,000,000 of these
notes. When they were deposited for
circulation the monopoly would be com
plete. Mr. Johnson sketched a scheme bv
which a dishonest man, entirely within
the terms of this bill, could make fc2,
5UO in two weeks by starting a bank.
"Could that not he done under the
present law?" asked Mr. Springer.
"Xo, sir," replied Mr. Johnson, "be
use he must deposit f 114,000 worth of
bonds to get f!H).000 in circulation."
"Could not the Canadian banks per
petrate the same frauds?" asked Mr,
Springer, returning to the assault.
"Xo," replied Mr. Johnson, "because
the Canadian system is a government
monopoly. "
WEST VIRGINIA'S TRICK.

Coi.msi-9, Jan. 9. The prosecuting
attorney of Jefferson county has ad-dresta-d
a letter to Attorney General

the West Virginia authorities send their
paupers across the river into Jefferson
county, paying in advance a month's
rent for them, and then leaving the in

county.
There seems to be no law governing
the case, and it is said that practically
the same conditions exist in other river

THE WATERS KECtDING.
The Flood

About at an
Pittsbcko. Jan. !. The Hood has
reached its limit and the worst is over.
The maximum height, 2 feet 9 inches,
was reached in the harbor, and an hour
later the water began to diminish.
While most of the danger is p;ist, care
ful watching will be n -quired until the
rivers get back into their banks, which
will he about .tomorrow morniug. The
fall will iieees.-iirily K slow, as there is
still much surface water draining into
the streams.
Xotwithstauding the rapid rise, which
was the quickest on record, the damage
has b-eu small as oinpared with other
floods. This was due almost entirely to
the precautions taken by rivenncu, who
have profited bv p:W experiences.
Captain W. W. O'Neill approximates
the general loss at fTiOo.ooo. This esti
mate includes wreckage, flooded mills,
and mines, expenses for protex'tion and
help and the loss to private corporations
adjacent to but not connected with the
rivers.
Locally the loss has leen compara
tively light, notwithstanding the sud
denness Of the rise. The annoyance and
iiu-oiiveiiieu.ee, however, has leeii con
siderable. Among families and private
individuals, Allegheny lias suffered
most. The lower part of the city was
submerged, and people went about the
I Btreets in skiffs. There was much bustle
ana Jiurry to get damageable goods to
places of safety. The Pittsburg and
Western passenger station was aban
doned, and trains were run in and out
of the West Penn station. Along River
avenue cellars were badly Hooded. On
the Pittsburg side, the section fronting
on the Allegheny river suffered from
flooded cellars. A depth of .our feet
reached in several places on Sixth street
and Duquesne way.
Xews from above Pittsburg shows
that streams are falling. Below the
water has about reached its heighth.

Congressman I-ador Strauss of New

During the course of his speech Mr.
Wilson said: "IVofecfioii in its real
working is nothing but the old device
by which the rich throw upon the jxxir,
by which iho.se who lalnr in tin- legisla

in the shop and in tlie lit-M. tlie chief
burden of Kupjiortiiig the common gov
ernment and. in addition thereto, ex
act from them one or more days in
every week of nurequittiug lalr for
their Ih-iu lit and enrichment. Against
this wrong and injustice the party of
Jefferson and Jackson the party of
free institutions is pledged to wage u
war of extermination.
"Moderate and ju-f taxation is indeed
the highest achievement of legislative
action. If we have failed as a party, in
our recent effort, to reach this high
achievement, as we must admit that we
have followed, let us searchingly and in
the spirit of the most honest inquiry,
ascertain how far that failure has leen
due to faithlessness in our own efforts
or in our own ranks, and how f.ir it was
due to the intre.jclimeiit of privileges so
strong and so invete rate that no first
a.-sault could hope fully to dislodge it.
I am one of those who believe that our
partial failure has been due to lioth
causes and, so lx-lieving. I tind in our
present reverses no canst- for d-sjw nd
ency or for party disorganisation and
apathy, but a higher call to duty, to a
n. ore advanced party policy, a more
ble.iilfa.st and loval adherence to it."

DON'T CARRY BOOKS.
At I.-ast Avoid IN.injf So If Ton Happen
Into the Ator Library.
A young man strode into the Aster
library yes! irday afternoon, a good siTt-d
book under his arm, and was makii g
.-truight for the staircase to the reading
room when the old man who serves as
hail iorter waved him back by a ges
ture. 'Well, what's up with the old chap
nnvwav':" he remarked to his friend.
"Come back hen ." said the p irn r,
rimultaneously pointing a finger at some
unnoticed object.
Well, I like that," answered the
youth, not following the direction of
the linger. "I like you for a nice, ixilito
sort of guide in this building. Guiss
I'll go where I want without your as
sistance, my goKl man."
"You've got a book," said the por
ter sepulchrally.
"Yes," replied the young man, "I
have, and if it hadn't such a respectable
binding on it I'd like to fire it at your
head. There, " and ho made a spring
upward, three steps at a time, followed
by tlie gasping jiorter, who finally lay
prone on the stone staircase frantically
holding on to the vanishing coattails.
"Come back," he pleaded, now in
plaintive tones, "come back and read
the iiotiit. You'll see I daren't let you
pass with that lxiok. I'll lose my place
if you're seen with it. Do, sir, please
come back. "
The notice is to the effect that all
books carried into the library are to he
left in the porter's charge and called for
on coining out. The idea is to prevent
readers walking off with books of the
library. If without one coming in and
with one going out, it's easy to know
they'ro appropriating library property.
Before the making of this rule numer
ous books were removed, as it was not
easy to accost a reader and demand
whether or not a liook in his possession
was his own or other people's property.
"See here, " said the aggrieved youth,
shying his book onto the jiorter's table,
"next stranger you meet stop your or
ders and your mysterious passes lay
your stupid old finger on that piece ol
pasteboard, will you, and say straight
out, 'Read that notice.'" New York
