WASHINGTON- . 17. ( Special Telegram
to the HEI : . ] The housn to-day refused by a
\otoof 131 to 137 to take up the luter-state
conimerco bill. This vote cannot bo regarded
osatcBtof Uio feeling of the house on this
question. Tim bill Is "privileged" under the
rules , the privileges arlBlnir from the fact thnt
It 1ms already passed each house and Is re-
tnrnoii throng ! ) the medium of n conference
committee. This elves It the right to be
taken up at any tlmo upon a majority vote.
To have taken up the bill to dav would have
knocked out several measures that would
have thus lost their parliamentary status
nnd advantage. To preserve the status
of these measures many members voted
ngalnst taking up the Int r-statn commerce
bill \vlio arc tavorablo to nnt measure and
Romp of these publicly declared these to bo
the reasons for their \otes In the negative.
The general opinion Is that the bill will be
passed by the house within the present week.
SIONAI , SKIIVICK TALK.
In army circles a good deal has been said
o-day of General Ilazon. the signal ofllcer
who died last night. Ho was not nn old man ,
but he had devoted thirty years of his llfo to
theM-rvIco of his country and for much of
that tlmo succeeding his graduation from
West Point In 1S.V ) . Ho was on active duty
before the breaking out of tlio civil war. ho
had distinguished himself In various Indian
campaigns and his record from the tlmo Mo
took command of the Forty-first Ohio In Ibfil ,
to his mustering out In 1806 , to bo appointed
colonel of the Thirty-eighth Infantry , his
record was one of conspicuous efficiency at.d
irallantry. Ho was appointed chief signal
officer In 18SO. Personally ho was one of the
most agreeable of men , but possessed certain
peculiarities of temperament that tended In
flomo measure to dutuct from his popularity
nl the army. Yet he liml hosts of friends and
the country generally will mourn his depart
ure ns tli.xt of a br.ivo and heroic otllcer.
Oencral Ha/en's death and thu consequent
necessity for cerHIu changes in the organi
zation ot the signal set vice will revive the
Question of transferring the whole matter
from the control of tlio war dcpaitincut to
thnt of tlui interior. No better opportunity
is likely to present Itself for settling this sub-
Jcct fotever since there will bo no chief with
personal feelln s or nlllelnls Interets to bo
hurt by tlio transfer , if iii.ule.

Monuments to the Into General Logan will
likely bo raised In both Washington and Chi
cago. Tlicio lias been no positive moves
made , however , in this matter , as tlio friends
of the de.id soldier and statesman do not
want to Inteifero with tlio funds being
raised for the benefit of Mrs. Logan. They
fear that any effort looking towards a menu-
nicnt would detract trom the lamlabiowoilc
nnd Its success has much to do with the dia-
tressed widow's future happiness , bo far
500,000 has been raised , and it Is the Intun-
tion to bring It up to $100.000. Citizens of
Chicago have also contributed 813,000 to a
fund for the payment ol the Incumbrniices
now restinc upon thn homo of .Mrs. Loiran in
this city. This monev was deposited in the
lllggs bank In this city to the older of .Mrs.
Logan , and to-day Colonel M. AI. P.ir-
Icer called on tier and obtatninc fiom
her n check went to the bank and paid off
the notes. Later in the day ho presented to
Mis. Logan tlio cancelled notes and she now
owns tlio house known us Calumet Place , or
Columbia Heights , free from all lucum-
brauci-s. To-day the children and heirs ot
tlenciiil Loean Ids son , John A. Logan , Jr. ,
and his daughter , Airs. Tucker , with nor
husband , Major Tucker united In a deed
convoking all their right and Intciest as
heirs In the house to Mrs. Logan. That
house Is now liei propei ty solely. AsGeneial
Logan died Intestate this action on tlio part
of the holrs was of course entirely voluntary.
It Is expected Uiat the movement for a monument
ment to General Lo au will oriu'luato either
with the Grand Army posts or the Aimyof
till ) Tennessee. Thu latter body moots In
Detroit in Sei > tmtibor ne\t and It Is prob.iblo
that the movement will take definite shape
then.
THK C1I1CACIO MII.ITAUY POST.
The Now Yoik Herald to-day goes Into
four and a half columns of spasms over tlio
proposed Chicago military post , baying that
the Imslnass men in that city hi ve originated
the scheme through fear of an outbreak when
the execution of tlio anarchULs occurs. Mili
tary men lieio and the Chicago membois pro
nounce tlio story absurd and say tlio neces
sity for a mllttaiy post at BO important a rail
road nnd shipping center , lion- which tumps
coul.t bo oulotlv moved to any point , has Iont
been roeoirnlzed. They point to tlio fact that
there aio military stations at many points
throughout the countiy and tlio establish
ment of one at Chicago would not bo of mote
significance than the maintenance of others
at such points as Now Yoi k , Newport , Wash-
Incton , Atlanta , Newport , Ky. , Columbus ,
O. , Now Oileansaiid elsewhere.
suNsin.R.ss HUMOUS.
Much solicitude lias been evinced by public
men hoio to-dav o\er the senatorial Illinois
trom ftow York. Telegrams wore received
announcing that Mr. ConUlug had con
sented to accept an election at the hands of
both parties and that he would surclj suc
ceed Senator Wai ner .Miller , Scores of mes
sages were wired to Albany asking If there
was any truth In the reports. The answers
received did not tend to confirm the gossip
and It is believed by tlioso who know most
about It that Mr. Conkllng would not comeback
back to the senate If elected in onv manner
by cither paity , much less by democratic
votes.
"PUNsKl" POX'S CONDITION' .
There seems to bo a Kind of supoistltlon
In tlio minds of statesmen In Washington
to-night about tlio Illness of Representative
S. S. COT. Whllu It Is well known that ho
lias Improved slightly during the day , and Is
In better condition tonight than ho was
twenty-lour Imiii.s ace , and that his physi
cians believe ho will recover , noaily ovorv-
body thinks ho U going to die. This Is ow Ing
to the feeling that there Is a fatality existing
among the prominent public men of the
country , and that there la a "run" being
inadu upon them. Tho-o w ho liuvn seen Mr.
Cox to-day , and they have been coniined to a
very small number , say that ho is greatly
emaciated and looks as though ho was In tlio
clutches of death , lie has hod a good deal
of fever , anil the hemorrhages have relieved
him of so much blood that ho is thin and
cliostly in appearance "Sunset" Cox has
probably not n peisoual enemy In Washing-
ton.nnd his very serious condition Is a matter
of extiemt ) regret here.

the marriage of her nlcco and heiress if
Spies , the anarchist , was interviewed to

Sccgur's refusal to Issue a llccnsn seemed a
direct answer to my supplication. " Mlsa
Vanrandt's nlatUcs hero tire \crymuch af

Mrs. Arthur's father , Is prostrated by the

CinrAoo , Jan , 17. The Interview tele
graphed from Plttsburgdlslnhorltlng her nnd
telling of the piostratlon of her grand father
was load to Miss Van Xandt this evening.
The young lady exhibited considerable pas
sion. "I consider It an unwarrantable out
rage , " eho said. "There , now. I consider
that message an unwarrantable inter
ference , " she repeated , "and It will not
deter mo in the least. " Miss
Nina hinted that she was about to publish a
book over her maiden name , which w.is to bo
a hlstoty of the life of Mr. Siiles , written bv
herself and piofaced by neisclf. Clerk
Secgur , who refused to Ksuo the mairlago
license , said tonight that Miss Van Xandt
was. In his opinion , \lctim of the road } wit
of Spies aim his counsel ; that Miss Van
Xauilt did not lo\o Spies nor Sulcs her ,
but that the real alllnity Is between Miss Van
Xandt , who lias nine dogs , and Mrs. Captain
HI nek , who baa sixty dogs. Ho thought the
object ot It all was to create sym
pathy for Spies and provoke the
clemency of the governor. Clerk See-
gur said ho should go tu Van Xandt nnd
repicscnt the matter to him In this light. In
thus dragging down to his own disaraco an
Innocent glil , Spies showed hlmsclt lacking
In all the Instincts ot honor and manhood.
Judge Piondeigast , of tbo county court ,
when asked to-night If ho would perform
the mairlagc ceremony for Spies and Miss
Van Xandt , said "yes ; 1 ha\o been

"Is tlicro anvthiiig improper or illeiral In

"As to the propriety tlmt Is : i matter of

upon his arrival at Havana a Spanish ollicer
approached 1dm and , without an explana
tion of any kind , lugged him off to jail and
lucked him up. It was some tlmo before ho
compieliciidcd his situation , but ho ex
plained as best ho could that there was n mis
take .somewhere. Ho did not at first mind
the matter , thinking that his explanation
would result in his telcasu In a veiy shoit
time. Two or three dajH passed and ho w.is
still ron lined in jail , having no place wlioieon
to Ho but thu ihuulni ; ot Ills cell , and being
furuNied with notlilin ; inoro substantial In
the way of food than the prison faro of

been ariested on the chaise that ho had

with sleeping on the rough titoae flavin ; ; .
An nOlccr at last arrived tiom thu City of

The death of General Hazon , chlu
signal olliccr of the United States o
America , creates n vacancy in that posl
tlon , which will hnvo to l > o filled by in
appointment by tlio president. It Is un
derstood , however , thnt this appointment
Is but a matter of form , nnd that , otliei
things being equal , the nppoinlco will bi
the next in rankund order oflsuccession h
the signal corps. At least , it is the law
and regulation that when the chief of n
bureau or a norp dies , his first asslstanl
is to succeed In command. In
the cno in point , the position of lirst as
sistant signal service olllcor is hold b\
Major J. S. Powell , who is now * looitcil
in Omaha awaiting the anival of Instrii
mcnts to commence work upon the sig
nal service ot the Union 1'acllic road ,
The position of lirst assistant signal ser
vice ofllcor the major has held for some
time back , as the natural sequence ol
ability , excellent service nnd deponed
promotion. It is hoped that the presi
dent will take this view of
thu case when it comes tu
occupy hia attention , 'Iho ap
pointment will have to pass the
senate for confirmation , and upon being
introduced in tlmt body will in nil prob
ability bo rofunud to the military com
mittee , who will doubtless sen thnt the
military legiilations are complied with.
Major Powell entered the signal servleo
in 18711 and in that time has mtuiu quite
an enviable record , in fact , onu unsur
passed by any member of tlio corps. Ho
lias made a number of inspection tours
throughout Iho country , and in 1832 was
appointed to thccqminand of the expedi
tion sent to tin ) relief of Lieutenant I * . II.
I Joy , at Point Harrow 70 ° 17" north , Ho
Ho mtuio the vovago in the Leo ,
though to reach his objective point
ho had to sail live degrees further north.
The expedition was eminently successful
and though the perils of tlio polar seas
werp encountered ho returned without
having lost a man of his crow. A similar
expedition on another route , which was
commanded by Lieutenant Garlington ,
resulted in the cruphing of the lanlic
and the eommandur's return in the Pro
teus to Upcrmavik. Other polar cvpudi-
tions wore attended witli like disasters
and loss of Jifc. Major Powell was Iho
lirst signal man to puss examination tor
the posision of indication officer , and tno
lirst in the corps to receive orders rais
ing him to the position of first assistant
signal ollicer. The major is now thirty-
nine years of age. lie has been signally
successful in indicating weather , and it
is conceded that both by regulation and
right he ought to succeed thelate IJcneial

At the meeting of the commissioners
yesterday afternoon , the making'of blank
books to be used by the county during
the year , as also the furnishing of the
'stationery for the same nurposo , was
awarded to the Omaha Republican. In
the matter of the bids for county print
ing , a dispute arose between Samuel
llees and the former company , both of
whom had presented figures. 'Jhe Ho-
publican had given figures only upon
packages of 1,000 , while Mr. Hecs had
furnished rates upon quantities of 1,000 ,
500 and 100. Upon the first named quan
tities the Kopublican bid $0 , which was
lower than Roes' by something
over a ? l In view of the
fact thnt the Ropublic'in had
not bid upon the two smaller quanti
ties , Mr. Rees claimed that he was the
lowest bidder anil wanted the work.
Messrs. Taylor and Campbell , represent
ing the Republican , said that their bids
were offered in the same manner that
they had always been , upon 1,000 pack
ages , and , further , that the intent that a
bundle ot MM ) , if Mich wore needed ,
would cost but one-half , and a bundle of
100 but one-tenth of that of a bundle of
1,000. This , they showed , would result
i na saving of many thousands to the
county. Mr. Rcos argued that ho had
bid according as the blanks furnished by
the couuty had called , while the Repub
lican churned that the deputy county
clerk had told Rees to do so , while he had
not told them anything about tlio matter.
The county commissioners , after n care
ful consideration of the matter , agreed to
reject the bids for printing and re-advor-
tNo for tlio mime , thu bids to bo opened
Satuiday next at noon. Competition ,
however , is to bo confined to the bidders
mentioned.

The ' 'wine colored" volunio that has
been thu cause of so much trouble in ( lie
schools and the board of education , was
finally disposed of at the meeting of the
boaul last night. 'Ihe special committee ,
composed of Messrs. Davis , Copeland
and Clark nnd Superintendent James
picscnted a report upon the investiga
tion that had been hold on the subject.
The report stales that thu committee
found that the wine colored volume is a
standard book of science that has been
purchased by the board and used in the
bchools ; that no blame attaches to any
teacher for the manner in which it has
been used. The report also exonerates
Secretary Conoyor from any blame ,
and states that ho took the
piopcr action in notifying the
principal ot the high school that the book
should be kept Horn the hands of tiie
children. The report rceonunumls th.it
a case clioiild be piovided for thu high
beliool library and rules adopted regulat
ing the uu of the books by the teachers
and pupils.
When tiio report of the committee was
adopted Mr , Coburii arose nnd st.uod
that ho had a grievance. Ho said that
ho was not at the Investigation and did
not know- who had summoned pupils
from the high school to appear before the
convention , but that he thanked no man
for taking his daughter before the com
mittee ,
Mr. Davis explained that the pupils
had been .summoned by Mr. Copeland
without the Know ledge of the other mimi-
bors of the committee , had not been ex
amined nnd were dismissed befoiu the in-
\entigation commenced.
"Did the committee uneaith the ir.do
) iai < * iU" chimed in Mr. Ithioklnirn , nnd
the wino-eolored volume was closed.
The oilier business of the moi-ting was
as follows :

An application fioni thu paitrr of M.
Harnabas' chinch asking the sclnol board
to fuinUh the heating tor the church in
