WASHINOTON , March ax Among the bills
Introduced was ono by Mr. Hoar , providing
for Inquests by federal authority. Mr. 116ar
Bald Hit ) bill was suggested by tlio reports of
recent occurrences at Cnrrolllon , Miss.
The senate Imd no Information In regard to
these occurrences , but the newspapers of both
political parties seemed to agree about them.
According to these reports , wanton and un
provoked crimes had been committed , re
sulting In the death of a large number of
citizens , In which nil the victims were of ono
race , and ho presumed of ono political party ,
nnd all thn murderers of another. Such oc
currences , unfoi Innately , had been ot fre
quent occurrence , but when Investigated
were ant to take a political turn. Persons
defending or apologizing for them said they
had no political'slgnlllcance. It stilt re
mained that It was thu opponents of the
democratic party that wore killed and that
the adherents of that party were the minder
era. This hill was to provide a method of in
quiry , which would bo removed fioii ) politics.
It was rofcried to the Imliclary committee.
The Kdmnnds resolutions were then placed
befoio the senate and Mr. Ingalls took tlio
lloor. Mr. Ingallsdenlcd that tlio senate ImU
asked for the president's leasons for sus
pending any ono or that private papers had
oeen asked for. It had been said that the
senate had been Inactive In conliimlng ap
pointments. Mr. Ingalls denied this also.
The senate , since January i , IbWJ , had con
firmed 40 ! ) lunnlnations. Ho was ono of
those who believed in non-paillsinshlp In
politics. After tlio election the democrats
expected to vet In and the republicans to get
out. Hut a new Conesls had come about of
late ycais-a class of political philosophers
who believed that non-paitisaii.shlp was the
panacea for all the evils that nfllictcd theie-
public men who decried the opera
tion of the "American system , "
as they failed It. This new
party had uccn recruited fiom tlio republican
part > ' . Tlio neuter gender , Mr. Ingalls said ,
was not popular either in nature or In sci
ence. "Male and leimilo created He thorn. "
But there was a tlilid sex it that "it" eonld
"sex" bo called which sex had none result
ing sometimes tioiu the cruel capiico of na-
tine , at others 110111 accident or malevolent
design , possessing the vices of both and the
vhtues of neither [ laughter ] , unable
cither to beget or to bear , possessing neither
fecundity nor vlilllty , endowed with con
tempt of men and deii.sion ot women ,
doomed to sterility. Isolation and extinction.
[ Laughter. ] Hut , said Mr. luu'ulls , they
have two functions they sing falsetto fsjie.it
Innghter ) and they are usually selected as the
guaidlaus of the seraglios of Oriental des
pots. [ Renewed laughter. !
To come fiom llguies to facts , hecontinued ,
this tldul party had distinguished itself by
singing In falsetto plnases of civil service re
form , and had been elected as the guaidlans
of tlio conscience- tlio national govern
ment. He was not hero to impugn tlm good
faith , nnlilotlsm or many cxtiiiordinai v qual
ities or tlio piesldent ot the United States.
The president was the sphinx of Ameiican
polities. Jt was said that he was a
intallst , and lie tegardcd lilmsclf as a child
ot destiny ; that he placed devout and Im
plicit iclianec unon the guiding inlluence of
Ills star. Certainly , whether drover Cleve
land wasn very gieator a very small
man. lie was a very extraordinary man.
It when he was inaugurated he had de
termined that the function of goveinmcnt
should be exercised by men of his own Daily ,
the nation wuiila have been content , and
hercon was foundcd'tliO justification that tlio
nmjoiityoftlioseniitocouldu.se in demand
ing that no action should he taken In connec
tion with the eproposed lemovals fiom ollico
until there had been a s > atlstaetoiy assinauce
that injustice had not been done. If It were
understood that these icmovals wcie made
for political reasons , the country would bo
content. The lepubllean nmjoiity In the
scnato would bo content. The piesident had
declared that theio should bo no changes in
odlce when the Incumbents were competent
for political leasons hut they should be
permitted to hcno their term. Like
those that weie gihiding at the mill , one had
been taken and another left. Some republi
cans had been suspended andothersietulned.
What was the iuesistlble Inllucneo ot the
logic of the situation In view of the picsi-
dent's ultetaiices , except that every sus
pended man was suspended for cause and
not lor political leasons.
Mr. Ingalls alluded to the celebrated circu
lar Issued by the postmaster Koueial , which
he characteiiml as "the most thoioiighly dq-
pi ailed , deliled , cxeciablo and detestable
public utteianccs" ever made bv any ollleial.
It was an invitation , ho said , to every
libeller , oveiy anonymous blandcicr and
scurtHOIKS delamer. to pour sewage Into the
postolllco depaitnient. The postmaster gen
eral's ionly to the ic.solution of the senate In-
tioduccd by himself ( Ingalls ) showed that
8,0)"i ) fourth-class postmasters had been removed -
. moved in the past year by an adininUtintlon
pledged to remove men only for cause. That
was non-iaitlsan eivll seivleo lefoim.
Mr. Logan i balil that the senators had
tiavelcd tar In the debate , and discussed
many topics disconnected with the question
befoio the senate. The only question was
whether the attorney goncral.should lurnlsh
papers relating to the conduct ot the otlice of
nuNretatt ) < nnoy. This goveinmcnt , said
Mr. Logan , is based on the will ot the people
nnd the people should Innuall the Information
that they , tinough their lepio.scntutlvcs in
congress , should call for. Tim president calls
these papers "piivute , " but the moment he
places a papei on the lilcs of a derailment It
becomes , uy his own act , a public paper.
Could the president mean that to-inoiiow he
could box those papftis nn and send them to
Dutlalo' , ' Or that hei'oulu at any time heio-
after take them away'/ Could ho leave them
theui fortcn orliftcen yeaisaml then make
a demand on the government for them as his
pilvate impeuV
If that was an argument. It was ono that
It was Impossible to support by any soit tit
loslc or talr dealing. Mr. Lnsnui declined
liluiheir In favor of open sessions , and In
concluding said ho respected the piesldent ns
a pleasant gentleman , but that gentleman
was mistaken In the Idea that he was any
thing IIIDIO thiin an American cltl/en placed
In his olllue to execute the will of the people.
Mr , Logan's speech was listened to with
marked attention , and excited Livorablc com
ment.
Mr. Iliuilson followed In support of the
majotlty. Thopolieyof the piesent adniln-
Istiatlon , ho paid , had been without piece-
dent and would be without an Imitator.
Seciot chaiges had been accumulated against
the reputation of men and what was mote ,
against thoicputatlon of women and these
dial cc.s had been abtep on in the dark. The
piOv-lanmtlou of the president hud been that
mem dillciences of opinion weio not to oner-
nto against mini , but the feast was like
feasts of the old story , to which men wcio In
vited for the purpose of assassination.
Mr. Kdiiiiinils , .In closing the debate , re
viewed the whole- question carefully , and
contended that both houses of congress had
the right to see tlm papers affecting the busi
ness ot the government. If , bald Mr. Kd-
niunds , you took out ot this very pioscnco at
this moment the Intlurneo ol executive pat-
lonago to On given to senators and their
friends , thcro would not bo live votes in this
chamber against nnv one or all the resolu
tions proposed by tun judiciary committee.
The qiw.stlon was then on Mr , Van U'yek's
amendment piovidlng that In all Mich IMM'S
of removals the matter of continuations Miall
be rousldeied In open sessions of Hie senate.
Mr. \Vickimulon \ strong speech in ad
vocacy ot HID amendment.
Mr , Logan s > .iid that he would vote for the
nmendment but tor the tact it was thousht
that It would encumber the u'.soUitioiis.
Mr. Hoar raised the point that the amend
ment was not In order , Inasmuch as it
changed the i ides of the senate and no notlco
had boon given of It.
The picaidont pie teuipoio sustained the
point of oidur , and an aupcal taken by Duller
was laid upon the table yeas ai , noes 'JS.
This was a Muct paily vote , except that Mr.
Van \Vyck and Mr. IHildlcbi-rger voted with
the democrats.

declaring It to bo the duty of the senate to
refuse Its ndvico and consent to proposed re
movals of officers , the documents In refer
ence to the supposed misconduct of whom
are withheld , Mr. Oray ral'ed the point that
It changed a rule of the senate and was not
In order.
The president pro tempore overruled the
point of order and Mr. Oray appealed from
Ids decision.
Mr. Uray's appeal was laid on the table.
Mr. llrnwn moved to amend by striking
out the third resolution altogether. Lost.

8TUANGL3 DISAPPEARANCE.
A Ncbraqknn's Wlfo niul Daughter
liost On tlio StrcotH of Chicago.
CHICAGO , March 2fl. [ Special Telegram. ]
The very strange disappearance of Mrs. Louis
Hums and her 17-ycar-old-daughtor In this
city about the middle of January has ever
since then perplexed their friends and ac
quaintances and still continues to distress
them. Mrs. Bums was the wife of a rellicd
merchant nnd farmer in Niobrara , Neb. , who
Is the most prominent cltl/en of that region.
Theyounglady , Miss Nina Brims , had been
on a protracted visit to Germany , when
some six months ago the mother went to
Kuropo to brine her home. It appeals that
Ihoy arrived In thisclty January 15 , nnd belnir
unable to pursue their journey fuithcr , on ac
count of the stoi ins and blockade of tral us they
concluded to remain a few days with their
friends heie. On the morning of their ar
rival Mrs. Uruns stopped at the cigar store of
II. tiocttschc , coiner of Maiket and Madison
streets , with whose wife she was Intimately
acquainted. She had no baggage with her
save a small hand satchel. After explaining
liow she had been delayed on her journey ,
she inquired the way to the Blakely Printing
company , 15C Dearborn street , She was told ,
and loft the store saying that she wanted to
see a triend , who was a German , and a printer
ihcic , and would call again at tlio cigar store
in tha aftcinnon. Neither tlio mother nor tlio
daughter has since been seen In thisclty , nor
lave they put in an appearance at their Nio-
biara home.
The Geiman friend referred to is Mr. Pow
ell Hamann , of 1307 Sedgwick street. Ho says
ic undcistood the woman called on him , but
for some cause or another he did not get lo
see her. Ho kn'ovvs nothing legardlng their
whereabouts. Mr. Konvvorthy , the foreman
of the printing company , says ho remembers
a woman of the description of Mrs. Bums
jailing at the olllcc , but that was all. The
iiisband and father of the missing wife and
daughter supposed the latter weie stopping
witli friends In this city or with
his brother at Des Moino-t , Iowa ,
and was not alarmed , and on this account
some time elapse , ! before an Investigation
was begun. Mr. Gocttscho has received let
ters fiom the brother in DCS Molucs , and
also from Mr. Brims , asking him to have the
city police investigate tlio case. Mr. limns
is expected here in a few days to taKe up the
sealeli in poison. No trace of the missing
women can be found after their departure
from the printing ofllce , and nothing can be
licaul from what baggage they had with
hem. It Is not even certain that the daughter
was with the mother.

Julm T. Raymond Delight' ) nil Audi
ence as Tlio Magistrate.
One who had seen John T. Raymond
ns Colonel Sellers would at first sight
have considered tlio Magistrate a weak
play. Tlio play , however , is ouo which
grows upon the uiulienco and to some
bears n lasting impression. Raymond
has to a certain extent submerged himself
inthaplay , He has , ncrlmps. the most
jmportantolmractcr , but unlike tlio other
plays produced by stars it is not the only
character about which interest centers.
In the Magistrate thcro nre live strong
characters. They nil hnyo certain work
to do which they are required to perform
in an artistic , manner. The play lias cer
tain situations where poor acting would
bo ruinous. In Raymond's company ,
however , there is no danger of this re
sult. Raymond , of course is excellent in
everything he does. He neither
surpasses himself nor fulls below -
low his usual standard in his
latest production. The Magistrate' baa
had a well mWltcd , success \vhorovar it
has been produtwl. The sparkling
dialogue nnd 1119 peculiarly fascinating
situations which Jt | ubracosnrosuiriciont

ono of the inmates , attacked Tilllo Mitch-
oil , another soiled dove , witli a tooth mug ,
cutting several ugly gashes in tlio hitter's
head and face. Tlio Mitchell girl was
lying upon a bed in her room when the
Wren girl attacked her , and was unable
to ward oil'the blows. She screamed for
help , and some of the inmates of the
house ran tohcr assistance nnd separated
the women , The patrol wagon was then
summoned and both girls were taken to
the central police station where a plvysi-
clan dressed the Mitchell woman's
wounds. In addition to a long cut on the
back of the head there was n frightful
gash on her right check , and ono eye was
completely closed. The cause of the at
tack is supposed to have been the result
of jealousy. Botli women were intoxi

To tlio Editor : Permit mo to make a

the above heading. Tlio first part of his
letter is as true us Holy Writ , but when
he relates how cruel tlio employer is in
tolling the employe , "If ho don't like it
ho can quit , " of the "unsupplicd wants , "
and "education hampered" for want of
proper clothing to enable them to attend
school compelling children to turn out
to work nt an early ago in order to main
tain themselves ho has , and knows lie
has , struck the key note for the cause ol
unionism. Ho suys "In union there is
strength ; " and that something has been
accomplished , and much moro remains to
bo done. That is true ; and how foolish
would lie be to destroy the structure be
fore ho 1ms something better to substitute.
Ho saj's ; "Conceding that capital is
grasping and scllish , is not a trades
union nearly as bad ? " All , thcro is the
rub. Whiln unionism may bo considered
hellish , it Is only scllish in the sense
of using the same moans ns is used
by capital. But I deny that it is
used in a selfish way by ono meuibpr
against another. Every man ot sense
would bo glad to see unionism pass away
as soon as it ceases to bo a means to the
end for which it aims : Ho hays that
while labor unions are n means to the
end. and therefore valuable , they will not
bo the instrument tofaveiitually ] better the
condition of the'/misses. / Having served
tlieir purpose they will pass away to make
way for other forces. To that 1 and overv
workingman would clap his bauds and
shout "Amen. " . " "
J.f ( S" is too conbcion-
clous to fight with the same imple
ments that capital uses , and unionism is
not the thing to bring about tlie long de
sired result , worhinguien would bo under
lasting obliguti6ris to him if ho would
take the matter In hand and furnish a
substitute and do it over his own name ,
so that we may consult tdgcthor , nnd try
it possible to brfng in tlie inillenium of

numbers of ordcis for forclcn houses were

ingly very anxious to buy , did not seem
disposed to coino quite up to the market ,
orders being generally limited andjifo ( ?
under ruling intcs. The close at l o'clock
was at the best figures of the long session.
The htilkc hangs about the market like a mill
stono. Pending adjustment of the labor
dlircrcnces everything commercial and tlscal
must remain In an unsettled state. The
elf eel Is felt with as great force in wheat ns In

transacted was light.
