! i CRAIG IN CONGRESS, Tariff Andy Stewart's Son Fired Out of tlio i)cnio- eratic House. KOT ALL ON PAETY LINES, As Two Members of the Overwhelm ing Majority Vote for Him. DALZELL'S SPEECH BEST. OP ALL. Mr. Claggett Presses His Own -Claim for a Seat in the Senate. HE MAKES AN EXCELLENT IMPRESSION, "Washington, Feb. 2a The Democrats increased their majority in the House of Representatives by one to-day. This addi tion to the already overwhelming Demo cratic majority was by no means necessary to ensure a freer working of the party or ganization, but .Andrew Stewart, ot the Twenty-fourth Pennsylvania district, was unseated, and Alexander K. Craig, his Democratic contestant, declared the regular ly elected representative. Although two days debate Mas required to bring about this result, party lines were not at all closely drawn, and Mr. Stewart at least derives some satisfaction from the fact that certain Democrats were among those who maintained his right to represent the Twenty-fourth district. The arguments for the most part were quite monotonous, the most stirring speech of the day being that of Eepresentative Dal Zell, of Pennsylvania, in behalf of his un fortunate Republican colleague. It availed little, however, for after speeches by Messrs Moore, of Texas, and CFerrall, of Virginia, in favor of the contestant, and that of Mr. Dalzell in favor of the contestee, Mr. O'Ferrall demanded the previous ques tion. It was ordered without opposition. The first vote was on the minority resolu tion confirming the right ot Stewart to his Beat, and it was defeated Teas, 53; nays, 150. air, Craig Eworn la at Once. The majority resolution seating Craig . was adopted without division, and Mr. Craig appeared at the bar of the House and took the oath of office. Mr. Cockran, ofXewTork, and Mr. Bab bitt, of "Wisconsin, voted in favor of the Republican contestee. A great deal of humorous comment was made by members of the House, during the consideration of this case, upon a rather singular coincidence. On February 26, IH'M, the Republican majority of the House of the Fifty-first Congress called up the con tested election case of Atkinson asainst Pendleton, from the First district of West "Virginia, and upon the following day Mr. Pendleton was ousted from his seat, and Mr. Atkinson was duly installed as a mem- ber of the House. To-day, while the House was considering the Pennsylvania contested election case of Craig versus Stewart, Mr. Pendleton was called to the chair amid merriment, and wielded the gavel during the discussion. Two years ago ilr. Pen dleton was taking leave of his colleagues; to-day he was presiding over the delibera tions. Mr. Sayers, of Texas, submitted the con ference report on the urgent deficiency bill, and it was agreed to. As agreed to the bill appropriates $428,064. being 5149,483 more than it carried when it originally passed the House, and 39,333 less than it carried when it passed the Senate. The Aquilla Jones BUI Passed. The unfinished business this being pri vate bill day was the bill for the relief of Aquilla Jones, Sr., and it was passed yeas, 118; nays, 65. Then, at 4:30, Mr. Martin, of Indiana, asked unanimous consent that the House take a recess until 8 o'clock this evening, the session being for the consideration of private bills; but to this Mr. Kilgore, of Texas, opjectea ana moved that the House adiourn. Mr. Boutelle, of Maine.inquired whether, as the rules provided for a session on Fri day evenings, an adjournment now would not require the House to meet again" at 8 o'clock. The Speaker declined to pass upon the question, but intimated that it would. The rules made no provision for a recess, but1 simply declared that there should be an eening session on Fridays, unless other wise ordeied. Before next Friday the rules would be amended so as to provide for the preent contingency. Mr. Kilgore withdrew his motion to ad journ, and moved a recess until 11:35 o'clock to-morrow. Mr. Haugen, of "Wisconsin, moved to amend by providing for a recess until 8 o'clock this evening; and this amendment being agreed to, the Gordian knot was cut and a recess was taken until 8 o'clock. CLAGGETT MAKES A HIT. The Contestant for Senator Dubois' Seat la a Happy Speech Advocates His Own Cause A tot of New Bills Introdued An Executive Messso Received and Keforred. WAsnry-GTON, Feb. 26. Both the Vice President and President pro tem being ab sent at noon to-day, the chair in the Senate was occupied by Mr. Harris, who laid be fore the Senate the special message from the President on the subject of the claims of the "Wichita and affiliated tribes of the Oklahoma Territory. It was referred to the Committee on Indian Affairs. Among the bills reported from committees and placed en the calendar were the following: Appropriating $500,000 for an additional fireproof building for the National Museum. Authorizing the purchase of a site lor a building for the accommodation of the Su preme Court of the United States. Jjir. Dawes introduced a bill to punish in truders on the lands of either of the five civilized tribes in the Indian Territorr. Deferred to the Committee on Indian Af fairs. Mr. Frye introduced a bill to amend the lav relating to shipping commissioners, sea fmen, owners of vessels and other parties, and said it had been sent to him by the Secretary of the Sailors Union of the Pa cific. It w as drafted by a committee of sea men sailing before the mast on the Pacific coast, and who bad gained experience which nothing else furnished. He asked that the bill be referred to the Committee on Com merce, and said that that committee would submit it to the shipping commissioner. It was so referred. I"rj" Stands Up tor Ills Committee. Mr, Frye made "a statement for the in formation of Senators, and of the public, in relation to the bill now pending in the Committee on Commerce, to carry into efiect certain recommendations ot' the United States delegates to the International Marine Conference. The country might rest assured that the Committee on Com merce would report to the Senate no bill changing or affecting existing laws nnless that committee w as fully satisfied by the evidence before it that such changes and amendments ought to be made. A conference was ordered on the census deficiency bill, and Messrs. Hale, Allison and Cockrell were appointed conferees on the part of the Senate.' The joint resolution to provide for an 5 national bi-metallic agreement having bea on tne caienuar it was. on motion of Mr. Sherman, laid over without action. The consideration of the Idaho election case was taken up. Mr. Vance continued his argument in favor of Mr. Claggett. Much of his argument was devoted to the refutation of Mr. Tuprie's claim that the organization of the Idaho Legislature was complete when itsmembersmet, Mr. Vance, quoting from "Webster's dictionary and other philological and legal authorities the definition of the word "organization," and holding that as Mr. Dubois' election took place the day before the formal organization that election was null and of no effect. Sir. Claczelt Talks for Himself". At the close of Mr. Vance's speech the conference report on the census deficiency bill was presented and agreed to, and a bill was reported and placed on the calendar appropriating $200,000 for a public building at Boise City, Idaho. The Idaho election case was then again taken up, and Mr. Claggett, the contestant, was presented to the Senate by Mr. Stewart, and recognized by the presiding officer as entitled (under yesterday's resolution) to address the Senate for two hours. Mr. Claggett tookhis stand at Mr. Hale's aesK ana slowly, distinctly ana in a ciear, musical tone of voice began his speech. He thanked the Senate on behalf of the State which he represented for the privilege ex tended to him, not so much to present any personal claim as to vindicate the action of the State of Idaho in holding a second elec tion in the month of February, 1891, and sending him to the Senate to represent that State. If there was nothing in the contro versy except the mere question as to whether the sitting member or himself was entitled to the controverted 6eat he would not have ventured to ask the privilege of presenting the reasons why the controversy should be determined in tne manner re ported by the minority of the committee. It was because there were matters involved in the controversy compared with which the personal fortunes ot any man were abso lutely immaterial, that the privilege had been solicited and had been granted. Every Slate Interested. The question involved did not only affect the State of Idaho, continued Mr. Claggett. It not only affected that State, but it affected vitally every State in the Union. It was the boast ot the American people that they lived under a Government ot law, and ijf that were so, then it was absolutely neces say that in all parts of the common domain, and, above all, in .the Senate, the highest and most conservative legislative body to be found on the earth, the laws shonld be vindicated and their substantial request be observed. Mr. Claggett went on to discusss the de tails ot the question aud to rritize the majority report, He was frequently inter rupted by questions. So much of his time was occupied listening and replying to these questions that the limit of time was, on motion of Mr. Vance, withdrawn, and he was permitted to speak without any time limitation. His argument appeared to interest Senators very much, and they listened to it on both sides of the Chamber with very close attention. There was also a large audience in the galleries to listen to the speech. He created general laughter when he wound up a description of Mr. Dubois election tactics by saying that, to use a "Western phrase, the sitting member was bound to "Get there, Eli." After he had spoken about two hours, but without finishing his speech, Mr. Claggett yielded the floor, and the Idaho case went over without action. A bill appropriating 60,000 for a public building at Grand Island, Neb., was reported and placed on the calendar. After a short executive session the Senate adjourned till Monday.

His Democratic Inyestigators ' Leave Him Very Little Peace. to SECRETARY 0BLE STANDS BY HIM, But Is Himself Subjected to a Series of Sharp Questions. I0UNG EAUM'S CASE CALLED TO LIGHT "WAsnrNGTON.Feb. 26. Secretary Noble was examined to-day by the special House committee appointed to investigate the management of the Pension Office. The Secretary said that at the outset he wished to make a statement A messenger of the committee had called on him, and he said he would attend, but the messenger insisted on re.idinrr the summons to him, notwith standing he (the Secretary) said it was not necessary. He took this to mean that there was some doubt as to whether or not he would attend, and that if he did not he would be compelled to do so. Mr. Enloe said he could explain that. The messenger had been told to read the summons to another witness. ( Secretary Noble said he referred to that for two reasons. First, the President had Intimated in his message that a tree investi gation of any of the departments would be welcomed, and he, of course, was in entire harmony with that wish. Secretary Noble said he wanted Congress to examine his de partment, and he and his officers would give any information they could. In the second place, for the benefit of his successor he wanted to protest that the head of a de partment was not subject to process of the House to come forthwith and wit-houj; any limit of time. "I come here voluntarily, ' added the Secretary, "and without any force of writ." ' The Removal of Younj? Banm. Mr. Enloe then inquired about the re moval of young Green B. Eaum. The Secretary narrated the facts, now well known, ot bow Civil Service Com missioner Lymau called on him in May, 1891, with a paper making charges against young Baum of receiving money, either directly or indirectly, through a colored man in the Treasury Department, lor the appointment of a man named Smith, another man, named Johnson, personating Smith in tne necessary civil service examination. The Secretary said it had never been his practice to wait very long under such cir cumstances, and he immediately required young Kaum's resignation. He did not ex amine into the matter beyond the report of the Civil Service Commission. Young Baum was the son of the Commissioner, and he gave him time to .find something else to do .before his resignation took efiect. He treated young Baum mildly, as he thought the circumstances required that he should do so, because of the young man's relation ship to the Commissioner. Mr. Little, of New York, asked if it were customary to give men whose resignation was demanded 30 days leave. Criticism That "Was Expected. The Secretary said there was no rule on the subject. He had expected there would be some criticism of his action, but the man being young, he would rather let him go out under such cirenmstances than to shirk the responsibility and criticism. Mr. Brosius, of Pennsylvania, and Mr. Payson, asked if an opportunity had been given young Baum to defend himself from the charges made. The Secretary replied "No, because of the character of such a charge, af fecting the service so deeply; because the charges were brought to me by an officer of a Government bureau which had investi gated the matter, and because they made statements so apparently truthful I de termined to rid myself of it at once. I thought the good of the service demanded that he should 'go, and I sent him." The Secretary said he had done nothing with reference to the fraud to the Civil Ser vice Commission, for the commission looked to him to take care of young Baum, and it would take care of the offense against it. Mr. Enloe then asked the Secretary about the filing of charges against young Baum by Messrs. Howard and Fngle, clerks in the Pension Office, charging Baum with de manding money from them. He told Mr. Bussey to call the Commissioner's attention to this matter and request him to see to it. The Commissioner said the charges were circulated to injure him, and filed counter charges with a demand for the removal of these men and Special Examiner Taylor, who was suspected by the Commissioner of being connected with the matter. Charges That About Balanced. The Secretary told Mr. Enloe that he thought the charges about balanced each other. Young Baum was out of the service, and he refused to remove Howard and Engle. Taylor he had asked to resign, be cause he (Mr. Noble) had previously come to the conclusion that it would advance the Government's interests. The Commissioner and Mr. Taylor were not getting along to gether. There was a conflict of authority, between them, and he thought the Commis sioner should be sustained rather than Mr. Taylor. Mr. Enloe proceeded to question the Sec retary as to the removal of persons without cause. Mr. Noble said all removals were for cause. He could not recall instances, : but the records of the office were on file and would show the cause for each removal. It was his rule that cause must be assigned for all removals. He did not remember that in 1SS9 he had removed a large force of special examiners. Mr. Payson said he would show that the men were not removed, but merely called in from the field because the funds were practically exhausted. Froiytses of Proofs to Be Produced. Mr. Enloe said he would show by some of the men themselves that they were removed. The Secretary was next asked about the re-ratings which occasioned so much com ment early in the administration of the Pension Office. He said that the responsi bility originally rested on Commissioner Black, and w hen be found Commissioner Tanner was proceeding to carry into effect his predecessor's ruling to a degree highly injurious to the Government, he promptly stopped it. He thought it intolerable that employes should undertake to re-rate them selves, and he made'them feel the weight of his authority. These re-ratings were not for large amounts each month, but as they went back a long time the aggregate was considerable. Mr. Noble said he wished to say, so far as the efficiency of Commissioner Baum was concerned, that he thought he was running the Pension Bureau with great efficiency. STORIES of Farragnt, . by .

New York, Feb. 26. Special .'iThe so-called Garza revolution against the Mex ican .Government is a great fraud," said General Dan MacAuley, of Indiana, to-day, at the Fifth ATenue Hotel, The General has just returned front an extended trip through Mexico. He added: "As to his having a following who are discontented with the rule of President Diaz, it is all moonshine. I think the press of this country has done President Diaz a great injustice by giving space to the bandit Garza, and characterizing his hand ful of cut-throats as revolutionists, seeking to overthrow the Mexican Government, It creates the impression that there are some Mexicans discontented with the present ad ministration and that they- are sufficient in boldness and numbers to start a revolution. "Garza Is a border ruffian, with no more patriotism than a howling coyote. He has never intended to attack and overthrow the Mexican Government, and he has never had the bravery to remain long on Mexican soil. The fact is, a golden era pf peace reigns in Mexico, and the people hail President Diaz as' the George "Washington of the country. He has opened Mexico to foreign capital, and invited enterprise. On the ruins of Mexico has risen a rich and growing conntry, civilized by railroads and good government" COLORADO'S TWO ELD0BAD0S. Gold Diggers at'Crlpple Creek and Silver t Miners at Creede.

The "company controls3,000 acres between the Murraysville and Grape ville fields. They are now putting down a well in the Byncline, and expect to strike gas at a depth of 2,000 feet. The well is down 1,900 feet. Some gas was struck at 1,500 feet. If they find gas it will be piped to Irwin, which is 2J miles away. The company is also prospecting for gas in Arm strong county. They think they will be successful, and hope to strike oil as well as gas. A Missing Heal Estate Agent. A warrant is out from Alderman Gripp's office for the ariest of "William H. Mc Dowell, an Allegheny real estate agent, on a serious charge preferred by the relatives of Mrs. Milton Buchanan, a widow. Mc Dowell acted as trustee of the estate and guardian of the two children. It has as yet been impossible to serve the warrant, and McDowell is asserted to have left town. McDowell is well known on the Northside and in this city.

However, Mr. McAdoo remarks that the winter has been severe, and he doesn't look for a breakup on the lakes before April. EnJoyiDg a Building Boom.
