II CHARGE Of TREASON !
Presented by Congressman Barrett
Against Congressman Talbcrt.
SENSATIONAL DAY IN THE HOUSE
Because of Utterances Regarding Secession
the Massachusetts Representative Wants
the South Carolina Member Cen
sured -Resolution Committed.
Washington, Feb. 8.-Interest In tho
dehato on tho tree colnngo substitute for
the bond bill In tho houso Was completely
ovorshadowed yostordny by an nttompt by
Mr. Barrett, of Massachusetts, who created
the llrst sensation of tho houso this ses
sion by offering a resolution to Impeach
Ambassador Uayard, to secure tho passage
of a resolution to censuro Mr. Tnlbert, of
South Carolina, for "treasonable and so
rtitions utterances" In violation of his oath
of nlloeiauco as u member of congress,
Tho proceedings, which were highly sen
sational, grew out of a quoatlon of per
sonal privilege to which Mr. Talbert arose
In connection with newspaper reports of n
tilt that occurred between him and Mr.
Poarson, of North Carolina. Mr. Talbcrt
Bald Hint tho reports had unintentionally
misinterpreted what he had snlil, and had
placed him In a position of Indorsing se
cession. "Impulsively," said he, "I said that
South Carolina was not ashumed for the
part that sho took In It j that she was proud
of It, and that I for one Indorsed secession
then. Wo thought wo wcro rights I think
SO V(!t. mill tlmf. llTlflpi- thn rlpnmnantinni
surrounded by tho same conditions, I
would do tho same thing again. Now, Mr.
Speakor I repeat It."
These were tho words that precipitated
matters. Mr. Barrett vory excitedly do
mauded that tho words bo "taken down,"
and offered a resolution to cousuro tho
South Carolinian for treasouablu and se
ditious utterances and for violating his
oath. A scene, of great confusion followed.
It was evident that many Republicans
were not in sympathy with Mr. Barrett's
action, and even Speaker Keed, us it
seemed, tried to stop his headlong course.
After much wrangling Mr. Talbert was
permitted to explain, which ho did with
many assertions of loyalty and assertions
thnt secession had been settled thirty years
ago, and his remarks had applied to cir
cumstances and conditions which could
nover occur again. Tho explanation was
not satisfactory to Mr. Barrett, who
wanted Talbcrt to disavow all remarks
upholding secession and treason. Tho
conservative Republicans, howover, did
not support him, and his resolution was
sent to tho committee on judiciary by a
vote of 200 to 70, 127 Itepubllcuns voting
with tho Democrats for tliu motion and
ono Democrat, Mr. Owens, of Kontucky,
against.
An arrangement was effected by which
tho general debate on tho bond bill will
closo on Monday.

afternoon tho treasury officials completed
tuo computation or tno bids received for
tho new bond Issue, from which It appears
that the amount of tho bids nbovo that of
J. 1'. Morgan nnd his assoclnt-s (110.(5877)
was $00,788,000, and that l..o amount
which will bo nwardod to tho syndicate,
therefore, will be $3'J,211,a50, or approxi
mately ouo-thtrd of tho wholo lssuo. The
number of successful bidders Is 781. Tho
fact that two-thirds of the euttro Issue are
found to have beon at rates ranging nbovo
110.0877 Is something of a surnrUo to nil
who heard tho bids announced.

THE JENKINS BENEFIT.
A Ijirgo Audience In thn Thrntm lltrrl-
lently Entertained l.ait Night.
A full houso greeted tho Scanlan-Diirkln
Comedy Company, augmented by tho Grant
Uand, Schoppo orehostro and Columbia (lico
Club, nt Ferguson's thentro last night, when
a minstrel entertainment was given for tho
benefit of Mrs. Kato Jenkins, whoso son was
recently killed nt tho Indian Ridge colliery.
It can ho said without exaEitcratlon that the
entertainment was one of tho best ever
given by home talent nnd in many respects
was superior to many of tho regular min
strel companies that have appeared at tho
theatre after much bill board and other dis
play. Tho first part of. the bill was cer
tainly an agreeable surnriso. Tho ulnim
setting was perfect and all tho points that
go to make np a urst-class minstrel was well
filled. P. Fceley and A. F. Carroll rattled
tho bones and Guy Keipcr and Georco Drew
tapped aud twirled the tambourines',, while
M. F. Burkin took charge of tho Inter
locutory. The Schoppo orchestra occupied
scats on an elevated platform to tho rear of
the stage, which was decorated In a very
artistic manner. Tho vocal part of tho pro
gram was cxcollently carried out by Messrs.
1. Feeley, J. D. Jenkins, Shore and Connell,
Scaulan and acssley, Charles Gessley,
E. .1, Tobin, Cleorgo Drew, P. J. Feeley and
Master Willie Clear.v. Tho second tiart om.

ns a good wind up. The uudicncu left the
theatre thoroughly pleased with tho enter
tainment and n nico sum was mado for the
benellciary. The Grant Baud gave a street
concert before tho entertainment. It is
opportune to say iiere that if the regular
management had an orchestra like Schoppo's
at tho theatre tho audiences would he doubled

and M. J. Bowling ask that their thanks be
tendered to all who took part in and other

Skipped From Scranton Yesterday and
Arrested Here Last Night.
HE STOLE HIS COUSIN'S SAYINGS
An Officer Followed the Crook From the
Electric City and With the Aid of
Two Local Officers Made Arrest
Within Two Hours.
A Scranton crook was vory cleverly tracked
and taken Into custody in town last night
through tho vigilance of police authorities
of tho formor place and tho oxperienco nnd
tact of Constable Matt. Glblou and Special
Officer Anthony Alex, of this borough.
It appears that yesterday morning one
Matt. Camlnski skipped from Scranton with
$80, tho savings of his cousin, Charles
Caminskl, who at onco placed the case in tho
hands of tho police. Tho fugitive had mado
remarks a few days prior to tho effect that
he was desirous of securing work in tho
mines of this region. Olllcor Bryant was
detailed to coino to Shenandoah and make a
search. Ho arrived hero at 10 o'clock last
night and sought tho assistance of Glblou
and Alex. Tho three officers then visited
many places frequented by pcuplo of
Camiuski's nationality aud soon struck n cluo
that led them to the house of Anthony
Kapowskl, on West Coal street, whero tin
man wanted was found treating a crowd of
new acquaintances at the expense of his
cousin's savings. Ily midnight, or within
two hours after tho Scranton officer's arrival
in town, tho fugitlvo was under lock and
key in tho lockup and at 7:20 this morning
he started for Scranton in the company of
Officer Bryant.

The Controller Act.
Tho Supremo Court yesterday heard tho
final argument in tho Luzerne county test
caso brought by Controller Lloyd against
the Commissioners to compel them to recog
nize him, having filed a bill in equity and
maudamus proceeding, upon tho result of
which the Schuylkill Controllership caso
hinges. Tho Supreme Court has twice passed
upon tho Controller act, and tho general im
pression appears to bo that they will dcclaro
it unconstitutional. It is to he hoped that
such will not bo tho cue, as tho people aro
emphatic in their desire to have such an
official for this county.
