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,

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.

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.

General MucAnley Says He Never Had the
Courage to Attack Mexico.
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"

Night 20 Doctors Experimented and
Failed.
Self praiso and vain boasting do teot count
for much with a suffering public. The large
nuinoer or testi
monials of grati
tude and praise
daily received, by
Dr. Lowe and asso
ciates from their
patients are not
only of pleasing in
terest to them, but
are of special in

similarly afflicted.

To the hnndred of testimonials already
published is added the following:
"To whom It may concern It is nearly
two years since I became cured by tho phy
sicians of-the Catarrh and Dyspepsia Insti
tute. So many nave since inquired about
my sickness I desire to briefly describe my
condition, that those similarly afflicted may
know where I became cured of a disease
from which I had suffeied many years.
"For one year before beginning treatment
I was unable to do any work, and there was
scarcely an hour, day or night, I was free
from pain.
"I was often taken with such sharp cramps
and pain acioss njy stomach and bowels I
thought I would die. Nor did I caro to live
and thus suffer. The belching- of gas from
my stomach and sour, bitter taste was terri
ble. I had no appetite, and the sight of food
often sickened me. I had palpitation or the
heart, dizziness, pain in the small of my
back, and a numb, llfeles3 feeling in my
limbs.
NIGHT SWEATS WEAKENED ME
Terribly, and I could "et but little sleep. I
took cold easily, and finally began to cough.
I spit up chunks of thick matter. I felt pain
and sorenoss in my lungs and under my
shoulders; my breath became short. Host
30 pounds in weight, and became very weak.
Many of my friends thought
I HAD CONSUMPTION.
I received treatment from 10 of the best
physicians I could And, yet gradually grew
worse. Soma friends persuaded me to take
treatment from tho -physicians of the
Catarrh and Dyspepsia Institute. My im
provement began from the first. In one
month I was able to work ana ha-re worked
hard ever since. I have remained well and
consider my euro almost a miracle. I shall
always recommend these physicians for
what they have done for me.
