CLAY AGAIN IN T50NGKESS. Frtsident Clereland dyes Another Turn or Two to the Veto Mill The closing scenes of the Fiftieth Con gress, in the House at least, promise to be full of fun, if not of disorder. Democrats and Benublicans alike haTe reasons for fili bustering, and that they are doing to the Queen's" taste. The Cowles internal revenue bill jthus stands little show for passage. President Cleveland continues to send in pension vetoes to the end of his administra tion. r- ISrECIAL TELEGEAil TO TITJt EISrATCIM fWASHnrGTON, February 25. All day there -was nothing but filibustering in the , House of Kepresentatlves, thus ushering In with wholesale obstruction the last week of the Fiftieth Congress. In the first place, Bland, of Missouri, filibustered against the consideration of bills by unanimous con sent during the first hour of the session, as he had given notice he would do from now until the end of this Congress. Then the friends of Sullivan, in the contested elec tion case of Sullivan against Felton, of Cal ifornia, filibustered against a conference re port Then .the Republicans filibustered against the consideration of the contested election case, and pieced out the day with calling-ofthe roll on all of the customary motions in the interests of obstruction. -rThey justify themselves in this by the ar gument that the contest is entirely ground less, though the Democratic majority of the committee reported in favor of seating Sul livan. They have practically admitted that thev had no case, but they seemed de termined to seat their man at the end of the term, that he might get his pay for two years as though he had sat as a member, yet not in fact deprive Felton of his seat An other reason of the Democrats for holding this case off till the last moment was for the purpose of antagonizing other bills, as an election case is privileged and can be called up at any time, and can only be set aside by a majority vote or by filibustering. It has been the evident intention of the Democrats, ever since the power of Randall became apparent in the votesof last Friday on his reports from the Committee on Rules, to use this election case as far as it would go to prevent the passage of the resolution fixing a time for the consideration of the Cowles bilL The prospects are now that no legislation will be enacted from this time on, except perhaps the deficiensy bill, the Indian ap propriation bill, and the completing of other bills by agreement on conference re ports, etc. It is almost certain that Ran dall will not be allowed, under any circum stances, to pass his resolution for the con sideration of the Cowles bill. The Hills faction are desperate on that point, almost to insanity. Unless 'there is some great change in the House there will be fine fun in the closing lours of the session. The situation is full or possibilities for disorderly scenes. THE VETO MILL IN ORDER. It Crist Ground Opt About as Regularly as It Ever Was. "Washiitgtok-, February 25. The Presi dent to-day vetoed five private pension bills. The bills granting pensions to Squire "Wal ter, Henry V. Bass, "William and John J. Ijockey were disapproved upon the ground that the death or disability of the soldier, on account of which pension is sought, was not due to his military service. As to the case of John McCool, the President, in his veto message, says: The report of the committee in the House of Representatives recommending the passage ot this bill contains no intimation that there exists any disability contracted in the military service, but distinctly declares the pension recommended a service pension, and states that the beneficiary is .blind. As lone as the policy of granting pensions for disability trace able to the incidents of army service is ad hered to, the allowance of pensions by special acts, based upon service onlv, gives rise to un just and unfair discriminations among those equally entitled, and makes precedents which will eventually result in an entire departure from the principle upon which pensions are sow awarded. CASSIDS M. CLAT IN COflGBESS. Although Greatly Aged, His Intellect lies Bright as Ever. rSFECUZ. TELEGRAM TO THE SISPXTCS.I "Washdtgtos-, February 25. A stalwart form, a great head of white hair, and along, flowing white beard told everybody present that Cassius M. Clay stood within the House of Representatives, this morning. He was the center of curiosity while he remained, and his hand was probably shaken by nearly every member of the House. Judge Emory Speer, of Georgia, was another dis tinguished visitor on the floor of the House. Clay is an aspirant for the position of Secretary of Agriculture, and Speer wants to be Attorney General, and there are those who believe that at least one of these gen tlemen will get what he wishes, in response to a demand for the recognition of the South. Mr. Clay has aged very much during the last decade, but is full of vigor and apparently as clear of intellect as ever. PRATING FOR RELIEF. Tobacco Men Pleading for the Passage- of the Cowles Bill.

WASHINGTON, February 25,-The Depart ment of State has received dispatches from the Consuls of the United States at Panama and Colon in regard to the situation or affairs on the Isthmus.

Call for the Convention of the World's Arbitration League The IHillcnlum " ' toUe Inaugurated in 1S92. tSrEaALTELUGIULM TO THE DISPATCH. "Washington, February 25. Senator Leland Stanford, of California, the Presi dent of the "World's Arbitration League, has issued a call for a conference of that body, which desires 'to inaugurate the reign of universal justice andfiuallyof uni versal brotherhood. "$ The conference is to be held in "Washington on the 1st of next September. Hereisacopy of thedocument as signed by Senator Stanford: The members of the World's Arbitration League knowing the great value of a friendly conference to aid in the reconciliation of dif ferences among individuals who honestly fail to agree regarding the smaller things of life, are satisfied that the constantly recurring con troversies in many portions of the earth over non-essential religious differences, which some times even now require the presence of a standing army to prevent a serious conflict, is chiefly owine to the lack of a common under standing among them and the want of knowl edge ot each other and the true aims of life. Therefore we suggest in the Interest of truo and practical religion, and to promote in a much higher degree the interest of all classes, that great advantages for progress would fol low by the assembling together of dele gates from all of these organizations for the purpose of deliberating as to the meaning of their great common platform, which re quires service to God by serving humanity to the greatest extent possible. The World's Arbitration League, therefore, have determined to invite representatives from these organizations to meet at Washington, September 1. 18S9, for the purpose of formulat ing measures leading to the establishment of all needed reforms that will hasten universal harmony and peace. This conference will "be preliminary and preparatory to the approach ing culmination of the aims and efforts of the world s Arbitration Leagues ana peace socie ties, by the true means of educating every na tion to the self-evident fact that an enormous benefit would ensue to mankind by the begin' ning of a common and gradual disarmament in 1S92, when a great convocation of the world's philanthropicaf assembly at Washington on the anniversary of the discovery of America. and thus not only aid in the establishment of arbitration to settle differences between men and nations, but it is believed will eventually result In bringing to every government all other great measures necessary to inaugurate the reign of universal justice, and finally, of unl- versal brotherhood. iood.
