TRIBfTiiS Or aESPECT.
Wabhikgtok, Jan. 30. Tlie president
and the members of bis cabinet assem
bled at the Baltimore A Ohio station
this afternoon to receive the remains o
Secretary Windora, which arrived on a
snecial train at 4:30. Besides tbem
nearly all the public officials in vV ash
ington were at the depot. When the
train arrived the casket was taken in
charge by company B of the Treasury
national guard and borne slowly to the
hearse. When all was ready the proces
sion termed and moved from the depot
by way of Pennsylvania. Vermont and
Massachusetts aveDues to the secre
tary's residence. There the bearers
carried the remains into the house
through a crowd of people who reverent
ly bared their beads as the caske
passed. The president and all his offi
cial family followed the remains into
l he house and waited in the back par
lor while the undertaker and his aseo-
iates placed the remains in the front
room and opened the top half of the lid
so as to expose to view the secretary's
features. Mrs. Blaine remained with
i be presidont and was t he only lady
present when the members ot the cabi
net were ushered into the room and
looked upon the face of the distinguished
dead. When the party left the house
ihe bereaved widow and daughters en
tered the room and remained there a
few minutes. While Mrs. Windom was
kneeling over the casket sobbing the
British minister called at the house and
left a message of condolence for the
family.
Secretary Windom's death is especial -nlly
deplored by newspaper men. He
was accessible to them at all times. He
believed the public had a right to know
what the executive departments were
doing and never declined a reasonable
r -quest for information concerning the
business ot the treasury.
It is expected that an order will be
issued from the white house tomorrow
canceling all official receptions and en
tertainments for the remainder of the
Eeason.
The He-nate AdJoarad.
Washington, Jan 30. Immediately
.utter the reading of the Journal the sen
ate adjourned as a mark of respect to
the late Secretary Windom.
The president is very deeply grieved
ever the loss of his friend, and this morn
ing gave instructions that he could see
no one on business today.
The time of the funeral will depend
upon the arrival of a son who was some
where in the south, but probably it will
take until Monday.
Assistant Secretary Nettleton, who
has been on a visit to Oberlin, 0, is ex
pected to reach here this afternoon and
he will probably be designated to act as
secretary of the treasury temporal ily,
rrooi an early nour tins morning
there has been a constant stream of
carriages arriving at the family resi
dence on Massachusetts avenue bearing
friends who called to manifest their at
feci ion and sympathy for the family of
the deceased.
An executive order was issued through
the secretary ot state expressing sorrow
Windom's death and directing that
ill department of the executive branch
oi tne government mannest due re
spect for the deceased. The treasury
department was ordered draped in
mourning for a period of thirty days.
Harrietts InliM,
New York, Jan. 31.- -A Sua special
from Washington says: It was asserted
lst night thai tbe pressure from the
white house has been bo great during
the last three days that another attempt
will be made at once to get the foroe
bill again before the senate. The demo
cratic leader feel so confident that this
will be done that word waa tent to the
house democrats yesterday to make
haste very slowly in a Jting upon the bills.
Unless democrats receive aasuranoe that
tbe foroe bill ia dead beyond recall, the
transaction of business in the bouse will
ease. The plan of the adminstration
republicans in the senate, it is under
stood, ia to ignore the proposed cloture
rule and to make a direct motion to pro
ceed to the consideration ot the force
bill. Tbe hope of sucoeea lies in the be
lief that Sooator Cameron will rote (or
tba motion in order to prevent himself
from being named in a resolution of cen
rare, which otherwise my be adopted in
the Pennsylvania legislature.

NEBRASKA LEGISLATURE.
Ihe two relief bills, house rolls 73

order of the day. The committee on
enrolled and engrossed bills wade an
effort to report on House roll T'., intro
duced by the relief committee, recom
mending its passage with the exception
of section 11, which appropriates $25,
OUO, in addition to 100,0u0, for tbo
purpose of aiding drouth stricken set
tiers in wintering stock.
Howe arose to a point of order. Hu
maintained that the report was not in
order. Nothing but the special order
could b) considered. The sneaker held
that the point of order was w ell taken.
Herman moved the adoption of sec
tion 1 which provides for an appropri
ation of 8100,000 or so much thereof aa
may be necessary for immediate reliel
of drought sufferers.
Howe called attention to the legality
..f the bill. If an appropriation should
be made and it was afterwards found
hat the money could not be drawn
from the treasury all would regret i
!Ie did not consider the first section oi
.he bill itself a legal measure and cited
ihe constitution which says: "No money
(hall be drawn from the treasury ex
sept in pursuance of a specific appro
priation made by law and on the pre
sentation of awairant issued by tlio
iu.;itor thereon, and no money shall ba
liverted from any appropriation made
for any purpose or taken from any
fund whatever, either by joint or sepa--ate
resolution. The auditor shall
.vithin sixty days after the adjourn
ment of each session, specify th t
imount of each item and to whom and
or what paid." if an appropriation

pared house roll No. si which author
zed the state to issue bonds. He pro-
oosed to amend his bill cutting down
he interest to il per cent. The plan
f issuing bonds was legal he said,
A'hile the appropriation was not.
Howe asserted that the sale way wa?
o pass a bill which could not be ques
ioned. Therefore, if the comniittl
would strike out in house roll No. 711, all
iffer the enacting clause and insert hit
ill, house roll No. 81, he would have in
bjections. lie desired no glory in Ui!
natter, if objections were raised tc
lis bill because it came from that side
if the house, he would rescind all claim
o it and deliver it to the relief com
nittee.
Newbury resented Howe's iusinua-
