Southern Congressmea Take AdTan-
tae of the Speaker's Absence
to Denounce Him.

in His Appeals for Fra

AXD HE. BOUTELLE CALLS HIM SOWN
'By an UnklndAlliaion to the Election MtUtodsef the
Southern Eiatct.
Washington-, Angntt t In the House
to-day- Mr. Morgan, of Mississippi, rising to
a vjnestiou of privilege, sent to the clerk's
desk and had read an article in a Southern
newspaper, to the effect that, in order to
curry favor with the Farmers' Alliance, he
had his license as lawyer annulled. He de
nounced the statement as a falsehood, and
as a campaign lie.
The Honse then went into committee of
the whole (Mr. Payson, of Illinois, in the
chair) on the general deficiency appropria
tion bill. Mr. Henderson, of Iowa, ex
plained that the bill carried an appropria
tion of $5,140,000. The items of deficiency
submitted to the Committee on Appropria
tions, aggregated 513,500,000.
Mr. Rogers, of Arkansas, premised his
remarks by an expression of gratitnde that
the presence of Mr. Payson in the chair was
a guarantee that he would not be taken off
the floor. On two occasions the Speaker had
taken him off the floor. The Speaker had
conceived and taken it into his brain, for it
had come out of bis mouth (though it
seemed to him that it was more gall than
brain), that he had a right to take a mem
ber off the floor.
Mr. Kerr, of Iowa, thought that it was
about time that members addressing the
House should ceate to insult the presiding
officer, and he made the point of order that
the remarks of the gentleman from Arkansas
were out of order.
The Chairman, however, permitted the
gentleman to proceed, and Mr. Bogers, con
tinuing, attacked the Speaker and his
rulings.
USWABEAXTED POWERS.
He claimed the code of rules under which
the House is proceeding gave the Speaker
power to stifle debate, gag the House, force
the passage of bills, avoid exposure, out
rage and mistreat the minority and bull
doze the majority. The House, he said, had
degenerated into a state ot anarchy and
chaos. It was suspected that the Speaker
tamed his back on full, fair, frank discus
sion, on opportunity for amendment, on
parliamentary decorum, on official urbanity,
or historic and patriotic memories, in order
that he might unlawfully perpetuate his
partv in power and draw to his support for
the Presidency the unscrupulous mass of ig
norant and vulgar partisans, who practiced
the infamous and corrupt maxim that the
end justified the means. He had degraded
the majority with the full assurance on the
part of Republican members that if this
scheme should break down under the judg
ment of a liberty-loving people, they would
perish, like Samson, under the ruins, but it
it succeeded, that he alone should reap all
glory. Mr. Henderson, ot Iowa, de'ended
Speaker Seed against the attack made upon
him by Mr. Bogers.
THE MIGHTY MAN FEOM MAINE.
He referred to him as the mighty man
from Maine, and declared that he stood to
day as the towering, historic grand figure of
this age of legislative victory and reiorm.
If the people of this Bepublic did not ap
preciate wbat earnestness, courage and
patriotism had done in this Congress, then
there was no gratitude in the Bepublic for
loyalty to its best interests.
Commenting on the legislation of the ses
sion, Mr. Henderson touched upon the tarifi
bill saying that although some of the Re
publicans might have desired to amend it, by
reasonoftbe organized opposition on the other
side, the time had been so consumed that
those amendments could not be made. It
seemed as though the minority was bent on
preventing all amendments. This House
had parsed the general court bill and the
bankruptcy bill. It had passed the silver
bill, whereby silver was already marching
forward to take its place beside gold.
COURAGE JkKD PATRIOTISM.
This House had been the first one with
the courage and patriotism to pass an anti
trust bilL It had passed an election bill
an election bill and not a force bill, as its
enemies took pleasure in calling it. The
bill was merely an enlargement and an
improvement of the law which bad been in
force for 19 years. It sought to gag the
right of no citizen, nor to do any wrong to
any citizen North or South.
The House had passed the "original pack
age" bill, marching boldly forward to the
demands of the best thought of the people
of the nation North and South. The Re
publicans of the House had erected a pyra
mid of legislation.
Mr. Breckinridge, of Kentucky, criticised
the code of rules and then said he had no
criticism to make upon the Speaker. Iftbe
gentleman on tbe other side were satisfied
with the officer, God forbid that he should
attempt to remove that satisfaction. If
they were willing to accept the Speaker as a
lair type of their party he would enter no
dissent. The Speaker had won his suprem
acy. He' had exercised the supremacy he
had won. Laughter. He had been tbe
Bepublican leader on tbe floor. The Re
publicans had made him their leader in the
chair and be had exercised that leadership.
Laughter.
DREW THE CONTRAST.
Mr. Breckinridge then proceeded to con
trast the personal and political relations
which existed between Speaker Carlisle and
the members, and that which existed be
tween tbem and Speaker Beed. It the last
Congress tbe members of the minority had
alwavs been treated courteously; now a
member of tbe minority rising for recoeni-
tion did not know what treatment he would
receive at the hands of the Speaker. He
then proceeded to make an earnest appeal
against the force bill, concluding as fol
lows: Gentlemen of the North, why shall we
sot come together? Why can we not lay
aside these suspicions? You cannot take
your "rotten burroughs" from the South.
You cannot hold power here by mercenaries
put at the polls. You cannot control this
House by the use of tbe army. You cannot
keep political power by debauching the
ballot box or the jury box. You cannot
make the country one by turning out the
members elected by the people, and seating
the non-elected by your votes "What you
can do is this: You can aid the people of
the South to build up that country.
COULD HELP ONE ANOTHER.
' You can help us dig our mines, bridge
Our rivers, tunnel our mountains, endow
our schools, make our colleges prosperous,
erect our churches, keep us in the fine ot
progressive march; so that your sons may
come and live among us, buy our lands, en
joy the salubrity of our climate, throw in
their lot with ours, intermarry in our fam
ilies, so that, while there will still be a
North and a South, it will be a loving and
v '""i prosperous ana a patriotic
South.. That Is what we Democrats, who
on this tide of the chamber protest against
your rules, desire to have done by the peo
ple who are behind you at home.
I appeal to tbe Massachusetts of Ply
mouth. I appeal to the "Western Beserv'e,
settled by tbe men who came from New
England"; I appeal to the living soldiers who
met us In battle array; I appeal to tbe
vnruuui wuo .ucei wuu us at ice same
altar; I appeal to the. brers men who reeog.
nize sincerity and bravery. Behind you, I
appeal to the living people of the North.
Give ui your confidence, we will deserve it,
we do deserve it; and he who says otherwise
does not know us or does not speak the
truth of us. Applause. I speak to-day in
the sight of God and this body, and or those
people who have known me at home since I
was a little bov, when I say, from the full
ness of my heart, there is no reason why the
North add the Souih should be apart; there
is every reason whv brave and true men of
both sections should believe each other.
Loud applause on the Democratic side.
UNIFORMLY COURTEOUS. .
Mr. Boutelle, of Maine, said that he had
no desire to attempt any defense of the
Speaker from the kind of remarks which had
been made from certain sources to-day. In
every relation of life, as a man, as a gentle
man among gentlemen, the Speaker had
been uniformly courteous. He then com
mented upon th'e Clayton-Breckinridge case,
taking ai hii text the press report of the
majority of the Committee on Elections.
Upon this text he built a strong denuncia
tion of election methods in the Southern
States.
Mr. Breckinridge, of Kentucky, raid that
his relative, the gentleman from Arkansas,
had not sought an easy escape by a cowardly
resignation. A seat in Congress did not
compare with a good conscience. The gen
tleman from Arkansas knew that he had
done nothing to be ashamed of, and be knew
that the truth, when fairly found out, would
not affect bim.
Mr. Boutelle, in reply, was seTere upon
what he termed were the election methods
of the Southern States. There were, he
said, in his district a number ot Democrats
who always voted against him. But their
votes were always counted and his antago
nist was never assassinated like a dog in his
tracks. Applause on Republican side.
Pending action on the bill, tbe committee
rose and the Honse adjourned.
DUHOHT ASKS AH INVESTIGATION.
A Circular From the Pilots Brings a Reply
From the Supervisor.
"Washington, August 4. Eeplying to
a circular said to have been issued by the
American Brotherhood of Steamboat Pilots,
Supervising Inspecting General Dumont,
writes a letter to Mr. Speaker Eeed request
ing an investigation Into the affairs of
his office since his term began in 1876. The
circular alleges that "Mr. )nmont Is a
gentleman endowed with powerful political
pull, and he possesses an absolute genius
for evading investigation."
"I am desirous." he says, "that the com
mittee will make special inquiry with a "l
view to determining whether or not, l nave
at any time sought, through political or
other influences, to evade the investigation
of any charge that may have been filed
agalnt me, during my term of office."
HE WAS NOT CEETAIN.
Albert Smith Don Not Know Whether
He I an American Citizen.
Another hearing in the Carr-Pfeiffer elec
tion contest of the Twenty-seventh ward
was held yesterday afternoon before Com
missioner John S. Bobb, Jr. Nicholas
Bauch, Joseph Schlicher, Albert Smith,
John Peters, Ferdinand Probst, John Orth
ner, John Nill, Peter HannecE and John
Beck were examined as to the payment of
their taxes.
Bauoh testified that he had paid no taxes
since 1883. Smith had paid his taxes, but
did not remember for whom he voted. He
has lived in this country for 42 years, being
brought here when a child by his father
from Germany. He does not know whether
his father ever toot out his naturalization
papers, but supposed he had, and for that
reason never took them out himself. Some
of the other witnesses passed the examina
tion satisfactorily, but others could not pro
duce their receipts. The hearing was then
adjourned indefinitely.

THE POOR FARM SOLD.
Stewart's Property, at Parnassus,
Chosen as tbe New Location.
PROMPD ACTION BY COUNCILS.
Major Gourlflj States His Objections to the
Purchase.
A GOOD IHYESTHEKT FOE THE CITI
The old City Poor Farm has been sold and
a new location purchased. The Department
of Awards, consisting of Chiefs Brown,
Bigelow and Elliot and Mayor Gourley,
yesterday accepted the bid of (432,000 made
by Black & Baird for the Homestead prop
erty, and, with the exception of the Mayor,
voted for the purchase of the Stewart farm
at Parnassus for $186,000. This action was
afterward ratified by Councils.
The Poor Farm matter came up first in
Select Council on the question of approving
the 'report of the Department of Awards.
Mr. Keating made a motion to approve the
report recommending the sale of the old
Poor Farm, and Mr. Robertson presented a
few figures, simular to those published in
The Dispatch several days ago, showing
that Black & Baird would not realize an
unreasonable profit if they cut up the prop
erty into building lots.
WANTED MORE MONET.
Dr. Evans said the farm was being sold
too cheaply. He thought a reserve price of
8500.000 ought to have been set upon tBa
property, and if the terms ot the sale had
been more favorable it might have brought
$600,000 or 700,000. Some further discus
sion ensued, but when the roll was called
the sale was approved by a rote of 31 to 1,
Dr. Evans voting in the negative.
Common Couuoil then took action on the
Poor Farm sale. Mr. Bigham said he had
had some experience in real estate, and he
thought the bid was a fair one. To this Mr.
O'Donnell took exceptions. He had been
told that the property was worth more, and
he thought it ought to bring in the neighbor
hood of $1,000,000. He was proceeding ( to
talk about the purchase of the Stewart farm,
when he was called to order by Chairman
"W. A. Magee, who was acting in the ab
sence of Mr. Holliday, as the subject was
not under discussion.
Mr. Ferguson said the capitalists of this
city had ten days to make up their minds
as to the worth of the City Farm, and there
was no use crying over spilt milk. The
bids were bona fide, and unless the Came
gies took part of tbe land and inoreased the
capacity ot their worics me omaers wouia
not get out even. He was in favor of the
sale, but he would oppose the purchase of
the Stewart farm.
A TERT PAIE PRICE.
Mr. Fllnn said that the action of Councils
in retaining possession until the new farm
was ready had prevented the bids from
being as hi eh as they would have otherwise
been. Under this reserve clause he thought
the price very fair.
Mr. Bigham said the school board of
Homestead had squatted on two lots on
Eighth avenue, opposite the Poor Farm.
He had been retained in the case and had
taken evidence in over 100 cases of the
value of property in Homestead. He bad
found that in tbe business portions the rate
was $30 per foot front, and for residence
property from $10 to $15 per foot front. Tak
ing the City Farm and laying it out on the
plan of Homestead the average price was
a little over $11 a foot. . He held this to be a
fair price, as much of the land which lays
above the township road would not bring $3
afoot
The vote was then taken and the sale was
approved by a vote of 39 ayes to 1 no. Mr.
O'Donnell cast the one negative vote.
The section of the report recommending
the purchase of the Stewart property, near
Parnassus, for $186,000, was then taken up,
and Mr. Keating moved that it be approved.
Mr. "Warmcastle opposed the motion.
This was different from the sale of the old
farm. He had voted for the latter because
he thought the city was getting enough for
the property but he would vote against the
purchase of the Stewart farm because the
city was asked to pay too much. He
thought $700 too high a figure for land bo
far away from the city, and as several farms
bad come to the front since the bids had
been closed that could be purchased for
much less money, he believed that the
proposals should be reopened
and see it the city could not do better.
Even if a farm was not as eligible or as well
located, if it could be bought for half the
money it could be made to answer the pur
pose just as well. Mr. "Warmcastle was
afraid that if $186,000 was paid for a farm
the cost of the buildings would require a tax
upon the people to complete them. He
thought the matter had not been sufficiently
advertised as many owners of farms had
never seen the notice in the newspapers.
Mr. Keatingthought that if the Stewart
farm was so well suited and was so valu
able a land St would be to the city's interest
to buy it because in 30 pr 40 years It would
have to be sold again and if a good property
would bring a good price. He asked Chief
Elliot to make a statement on the subject.
Mr. Elliot, who was present, said he
would be happy to answer' any question
asked him about'the farm. He related the
visit of the committee to the various farms,
and showed the superiority of the Stewart
farm to all the others. He said the com
parison of gold to old metal would be ap
plicable totheStewart farm compared to tbe
others. He referred to its elegant location,
good orchard, splendid soil in high state of
cultivation, the coal underlying it and the
probability of natural gaB, the farm lying,
he said, on tbe belt between the Murrays
ville and Butler fields.
Mr. Bobertson "Will the money for the
old tarm buy the Stewart farm and com
plete the new buildings in first-class shape?
Mr. Elliot 1 asked several contractors
and they said the kind of buildings we want
could be built for lrom $175,000 to $200,000.
Mr. George Bice, of this city, built the
News town Insane Asylum, the largest and
finest institution of tbe kind in the State,
for $350,000. It has room for 1,800 inmates.
He says we can build a first-class fireproof
building large enough for 1,200 inmates for
$200,000. "We have only 460 inmates now."
INDORSED -CHIEP- ELLIOT.
Chief Brown was next called upon. He
was very brief, indorsing all that Chief
Elliot had said, and adding that in his
opinion the best site for snch a building in
"Western Pennsylvania was the Boss estate,
above Sharpsburg. Next to it was the
Stewart farm. From a monetary point of
view he thought the city could nut make a
better investment than to buy the Stewart
farm.
Mayor' Gourley agreed in the main with
the gentlemen who had spoken, except that
$700 was too high a price for the city to pay
lor a Poor Farm, giving the same reasons he
had given through the press during the past
week. In answer to Mr, Lambie's question
he said he thought the land worth $700, and
compared with other farms visited much
more. But no farm was, he said, worth
$700 for farming purposes.
In answer to Mr. "Warmcastle's question
tbe Mayor said he knew of half a dozen
farms that could be bought for less money
that would answer the purpose equally as
well. He thought he could buy a farm for
half the money.
Mr.Lani bie then toot tbe floor and said the
.mayor a argument aeausi me otewartiarm
.evidence of its being a good investment
. s--.. .l. . . .
for tbe city. If the land was worth $700 on its
. - -
own merits, not considering its surround
ings it would certainly be a good invest
ment because whenever tbe city desired she
conld sell it quickly and to a good advan
tage. If the city could buy land, use it for
20 years to her own advantage and then
sell at a profit she was doing well and Mr.
Gourley had admitted this to be the case in
"regard to the Btewart larm.
Mj. Keating indorse Mr, ItswaWa re
marks. He thought If cheap land waB all that
was wanted it could be bought in Texas for
$3 per acre. But here was good land on
river and two railroads at a price that could
be realized on in a Uv years. The city
could hot ask for anything better.
Dr. Evans said he favored the Stewart
farm because it was an excellent business
speculation from which the city would real
ise handsomely. , ,.
A vote on the motion was then taken, tbe
result being 30 yeas to 1 nay. Mr. Warm
castle cast the'only negative vote.
a little too past.
When the purchase of the Btewart farm
was brought before Common Council Mr.
Ferguson suggested that the aotion was too
rapid. He thought that as the city had
three years' lease of the old farm buildings,
more time might be taken to consider the
purchase of a new site.
Mr. O'Donnell objected to the Stewart
farm on the ground that it would soon be
hemmed in by manufactories.
Mr. MacGoniele wanted to hear from
Chief Elliot and Mayor Gourley on the
matter, and after some discussion they were
sent for.
Mr. Elliot repeated in substance the re
marks he made in Select Council.
Mr. O'Donnell asked: "Did you visit any
other farms except those formally offered?"
Mr. Elliot No. "We had no business to
do so under your ordinance.
Mr. O'Donnell "Why do you want to sell
the present farm?
Mr, Elliot It is not well situated and is
too small.
Mr. O'Donnell Do you know that the
"Westinghouse interests will build at Par
nassus and that there will be three miles of
factories alongside the Stewart farm?
Mr, Elliot I do not. I know the farm
adjoining can't be bought,
Mr. O'Donnell Do you know how long
Stewart has owned his farm or what he paid
for it?
Mr. Elliot I do not.
Mr. Ferguson Will it be any loss to the
city to postpone action on, this matter one
month? Don't you think we are too hasty?
Mr. Elliot If the city loses this chance
youwill be sorry for "it, I would give
$1,200 an acre for the Stewart farm in pref
erence to the whole of the three others.
A TERY GOOD PARM.
Mayor Gourley was introduced next. He
said Mr. Elliot had correctly described the
merits of the farm. If all the members of
Councils had visited the farms they would
say the Stewart is far the best, the cheapest
of the five offered and worth all that is asked
for it If the city wishes to sell, it can do so
at an advance. Notwithstanding all this,
he had voted against the purchase. It was
not that the farm was not worth the
money; but because it was too valuable
for a poor farm. He illustrated bis
view by saying that if he went to a tailor's
and saw a suit for $150 he would admit that
it was a fine suit and one that would add
dignity to the appearance of the Mayor of
Pittsburg, but it would be too expensive and
he would take a suit for $50. He did not
think any land worth $700 for a poor farm.
and did hold that 300 acres could be bought
at $300 that would be amply good enoueh.
In response to questions about manufact
ories up the Allegheny, the Mayor said he
had heard rumors only. He thought that
in ten years the objections to the Home
stead farm would exist against the new
farm.
Mr. MacGoniele thought the purchase a
good investment, and so did Mr. Bigham.
He had investigated the rumors about fac
tories at Parnassus, and could find no foun
dation for them. Mr. O'Donnell held to bis
idea that factories would be built and that
the purchase would be a mistake.
The roll was called, and the action of Se
lect Council in purchasing the farm was
concurred in by a vote of 35 ayes to 5 noes,
Messrs. Brewster, Ferguson, Flinn, O'Don
nell and Bussell voting in tbe negative.
