5l SS THE PEETSBUEG DISPATCH, iFKLDAY, MAT 20, 189a - ,gt? t-JkM SILVER MEN ANGRY Because Mr. Bland's Ideas Again Go Down in Defeat in the House. THE DE1IS GET A CURTAIN LECTURE from One of Their Number on Their Numer ous Inconsistencies. DEDUCTIONS IN 7HS AFPEOPEIATIONS "Washington, Mar 19. The free silver tnen were greatly disappointed to-day, wben the Chairman of the committee of the whole sustained the point of order against Mr. Bland's amendment, and their disap pointment was renewed when the Chair man also decided a modified amendment out of order. The decision left many of the silver men in an angry mood. The third party received recognition this morning, and Mr. "Watson, of Georgia, Bent up to the clerk's desk and had read the terse resolution "That the Committee on "Ways and Means be requested to report the sub-Treasury bill." He asked unanimous consent for its consideration, but Mr. Beltzhoover's demand for the "regular or der" operated as an objection. After a iruitless call of committees the House weut into committee of the whole, Mr. Lester, ot Georgia, in the chair, on the sundry civil bilL The Chair delivered his decision on the point of order made against the amend ment offered by Mr. Bland yesterday, for the coinage of all silver bullion purchased and now in the Treasury into standard silver dollars, the cost of coinage to be paid out of the seigniorage orgain to the Govern ment.the remainder of the seigniorage to be covered into the Treasury. Tlie Amendment Exiled Oat. It was conceded, said the Chair, that the amendment changed existing law, and therefore it would not be in order unless, be ing germane, it reduced the amount covered by the bill. The clause in the bill related to the recoinage of abraded minor coins; the amendment to the coinage of the standard silver dollar. The Chair was unable to see how the amendment was germane to the subject mat ter of the clause. Did it reduce the amounts covered by the bill? The mere fact that it struck from the bill the appropriation of f 100, 000 for the recoinage of minor coins did not reduce the amounts, because it aDDronri- atcd the seigniorage, which might amount to $2,000,000. It did not reduce the amounts covered by the bill, and might increase ex penditures. He sustained ihe point of or der and ruled out the amendment. Mr. island then reoffered his amendment, with the proviso attached to it "that the cost of this coinage shall not exceed 95,000, 55,000 of which shall be for the coinage of subsidiary silver and 590,000 for standard silver dollars." 3Ir. liland said that he attached the pro viso to the amendment in order to remove the objection of the Chair that it did not re dace the amounts covered by the bilL A Curtain Jctnre for tlin Demi, Considerable discussion followed, and finally Mr. Pierce, of Tennessee, led the debate away from the drv point of order and proceeded to read a lecture to his Demo cratic colleagues. "What, he asked, had come over the spirit of the dream of the Democratic part? "Was it going to back down and go back on its record? A similar amendment to the one now presented had been offered by Mr. Bland to a similar clause in the sundry civil bill of last year. It had been ruled out, and an appeal had been taken. On sustaining the Chair, the vote stood yeas, 134; nay?, 127. Of the 127 negative votes, but 9 were cast by Bepubli cans. Many of the Democrats who had voted ray then were on the floor to-day, and he had seen them stand up and vote the other way. "What had brought about the great change? "Was this consistency? The people could not be deceived by any such demagoguery as this. Laughter. The Chair said that he had heard nothing to cbange his opinion that the amendment was not germane, and he therefore ruled the amendment, as inodibed, out of order. Mr. Bland appealed from the decision, bnt the committee sustained the decision of the Chair by a vote of 120 to 75. Not Free M!vrr,"lmt Brass. Mr. Johnson, of Indiana, in speaking to a verbal amendment, ridiculed the Demo cratic party lor its action on the silver ques tion. He was several times interrupted by points of order that his remark, were no't relavent to the pending question, but he managed to make himself heard, and stated that he wanted to give the Democrats free silver. Mr. Cooper, of Indiana, who had just en tered the hall, suggested that the metal that the gentleman was presenting was not sil ver, but brass. Laughter. Mr. Johnson replied that he had supposed that his colleague was hunting General Baum around the Pension Office with his little hatchet. Laughter. Continuing, Mr. Johnson said that the Democrats had let pass four occasions on which they might have redeemed their free silver pledge. The last occasion was to-day, when they might have reversed the decision of the Chair. True, to do so they would have to reverse what they knew to be technically right, but whoever heard of the Democratic party scrupling as to the means it used to attain an end? Mr. Torter Needs Some Spare Cash. Mr. Cogswell, of Massachusetts, offered an amendment appropriating fl,01G,45o for continuing the work of the eleventh census. Mr. Sayers, of Texas, raised the point of order that this appropriation belonged to the general deficiency bill; but Mr. Ding ley argued that it was in no respect a de ficiencv. The 'Chair (Mr. Hatch) overruled the point of order. On a standing vote the amendment was defeated by a large ma jorityMr. Beyburn, of Pennsylvania, voting wiin tne .Democrats against it Tellers were ordered, and the Bepublicans, having refrained from voting, left the com mittee without a quorum. The roll was called and 182 members re sponded to their names. When the tellers resumed their places the quorum vanished and another roll call was ordered, but be fore its completion an amicable arrange ment was effected, the further call was dis pensed with, the amendment was rejected, the committee rose, and the House ad journed. To Cut River and. Ilarbsr Appropriations. In the Senate to-day Mr. MePherson gave notice that when the river and harbor appropriation bill should be brought before the Senate for consideration he would move to recommit it to the Committee on Com merce, with instructions to report it back with such amendments as will exclude from it all authorization for new contracts foe material and work; and as well, also, pro portionately reduce by 50 per cent the en tire amount appropriated. The Senate bill authorizing the Secretary of War to detail for special duty, in con nection with the World's Columbian Expo sition, such army officers as may be re quired (to report to the General command ing the Department of the Missouri) was taken from the calendar and passed. The officers so detailed are not to be subject to loss of pay or rank on account of such de tail. The bill exempting American coast wise vessels piloted by their licensed masters or by a United States pilot from the obligation to pay State pilots for services not rendered was taken up. Mr. Butler oflered an amendment repealing snch parts of the navigation laws as prevent the pur chase by citizens of the United States of ships in foreign countries and their right to American registry and to fly the American flag. Important Navigation legislation. Mr. Frye moved to lay the amendment on the table, and Mr. Butler asked the yeas and nays on that motion. The motion was agreed to yeas, 31; nays, 13. The vote was a party o?, except that Messrs. Kyle, Blodgett and Pugh voted with the Repub licans to lay the amendment on the table. The bill was then passed without division. The conference report on the bill to pro vide for the disposal and sale of the Ida math river Indian reservation was presented and agreed to. Mr. Aldrich offered a resolution, which was agreed to, abolishing the office of prin cipal executive clerk of the Senate, and placing the entire clerical force of the Senate in the Secretary's office. The river and harbor appropriation bill was then taken up, and Mr. MePherson made the motion, of which lie had given notice this morning, to recommit the bill, with instructions to reduce the amount GO per cent. Mr. Dolph moved to lay the motion n the table. Agreed to yeas, 42; nays, 6 (Messrs. Harris, Kyle, MePherson, Paddock, Palmer and Vilas)".

Father and Son, Crossing the Allegheny In a Skiff, Are Capsized. What came near proving a fatal accident happened yesterday afternoon when a man and boy were crossing the Allegheny river in a skiff with a load of junk, which they were to deliver in Allegheny. Theylost control of the boat when in the middle of the river, and drifted down to one of the abutments of the P., Ft. W. & C. It. It. bridge at Eleventh street. Here the boat capsized, throwing the occupants into the water. Help happened to be at hand in the shape of Mr. Hostetter's yacht, which was cruising in that neighborhood, ana: after a few minutes' maneuvering, managed to laud both father and son safely on board. The boy was the last to be picked up, having floated down as far as the Seventh btreet bridge. An attractive face the ono that be longs to a thorough ly nealthv woman.
