WASHINGTON , Psi , . 1.-Time personal encounter -
counter betwcen ! r. Brecldurilge of Ken-
tucly , who figured In the notorious breach of
IJromlso suit last summer , and : r. heard :
of Missouri , who has been a member of the
house for ten years , overshadowed In Importance -
portnnco all else that occurred today and wns
almost the only theme of conversation. An
hour was devoted to debate on the Pacific
railroad bill , a resolution was adopted calling '
on the president for all correspondence and
Intormaton regarding the alleged aid fur-
'nlshell the rebels In hawaii by representa-
tves of the BrItish government and the remainder -
mainder of the day was consumed ( by the
District of ColumbIa committee.
Mr. Dowers , republican nf California , op-
poset thc railroad bill blterl ) In doing so
he severely condemned time methods
Ilrsued by some of the Calorla OIPonents
of the measure , notably Mayor Sutro of San
Francisco , who had been 1001n members
with frantic appeals to kill time bill.
"J oes of the gentleman claim that Mayor
Sutro Is In realty attempting to old the pas-
sage of the mnea'ure . " said Mr. Camninetti .
democrat of California.
"I do not " replied Mr. Dowers , "belIeve
that Is the real effect of his circulars. "
Mr. Bryan of Nebraska also opposed the
bill . which ho sold dealt with two classes
those who had been guilty of mlsmanngo-
ment and those who would use the lines In
the future The title , In his opinion , sholld
' , be amended eo ns to make It rend : "An act
to nmend the eIghth commandment , and make
It read : 'Thou sbal not steal In small
'amounts : to visit the Inlqlites , of time fnther

Mr. Powere , yesterday when he said most of
time stock WS held In New England" . They
wanted ( dividends and the . men who had
robbed . the road wanted trnmmuunlty. , . ,
Mr. .Carutl of Kentucky consumed time re-
-
mainder of time hour wIth n speech In favor
malller
ot the bill , ,
At 12 o'clocl time hOlise relurned to Its
routine business. On l ton of Mr. Oros-
routno of Ohio a joint resolution was passed
providuimg \e for a joint eommlteo of the house
pro'llng
amid senate to report a plnn for participation
In time exercises connected with the dell-
catlomi of the Chlclmlauga Military park
caton '
September 1 , 1895.
! r. Hltt ot Illinois then slbmltted from
the foreign affaIrs committee n privileged
eprt on Mr. Stor < r'a rC50\ltlon : calling upon
time president 10 transmit al corespondenca
regarding the report the rebels against the
hawaiian government were Incited , supplied
.anil led by who
with arms , .mI party persons
clalmell to bo BritIsh subjects , amid thnt the
minister of Grent Britain intervened In order
to prevent the application of martial law to
those concerned In the rebellion.
The report recommended time passage of n
substitute covering the same grolll In different -
substtute phrseology. Mr. HI , immade the re-
port In Mr. Storer's absence , and asked for
Its Immedlato passage.
Mr. McCroary , chairman of time committee
on foreign nl'lrs. deprecated what he cnle(1 (
a furler : Iltpla. of "Paalan hlst.ory. " He
said hil commitee was unnnhnously In favor
srlli
of time resolmitioim . and It shouhl be passed
without stirring up thIs old question a aln.
Mr. Hear then demanded time previous
question. This led to time bandYing of epl-
thols and a IJCrsonal encounter between Mm'
Drccklnrld amid Mr. Heard , an account of
which Is given elsewhere In these dispatches.
After I was over Mr. Reed demanded tell- ;
er Afer time yeas and nays stating rather ,
sharply that the demanU for the previous
questIon hind summariy taken Mr. Hilt oft
his loot . This led to another exciting scene.
The speaker replied he was willing to take
the responslhlly un lmiinself After 'he had
eXlllalnul the parliamentary sluntcn Mr. Hltt
stated the reason he hat not been able to accede -
cede to the request of Mr. heard was that
lie did not Imow that that genteman desired
to speak on time Hnwalan question.
Then Mr. nrcclnrldgc , In his usual tone
with great coolness , said : " 1 had desired 10 I '
say n teW words of opposition to the resolu-
ton , but hat not tune to do so. " He would
In time future have occasion to say something
upon It. r
Then Mr. Iclr of Pennsylvania shoule
"RIlllar order " mind after the speaker hn(1
with ! difficulty hmersuaded the members to hear
time speakers Mr. Hlt went back to his
speech on time Hnwlian resolution. Possibly ,
ho said , part of the remarks hall been lost ,
because of a little confu&lon which might
.
have diverted the ntenton of the members.

WASHINGTON , Ieb. 1.-Time bargain sale ,
so dear to the AmerIcan women , has been
Introduced into Germ.n ) with results so dls-
nstrous to conservative German busIness
conservntve
methods that time government has been apPealed -
Pealed to to cure the evil , A bill has been
drawn for submission , first to the federal
council and then to time Reichstag , Intended
to check the practice . United States Com-
morclal Agent Stern nt Hamburg has sup-
piled n copy of this bill to the State department -
mont with extended comments upon the con-
ditons which have caused Its preparatiomm.
The proposed law Is directed first of all
against those schemes In which the managers
of so-called bargain sales by means of fraud-
ulent advertisements , effect a sale of mer-
chandlso.of lQ lrerert ! , goods , for n .conslder-
able period , turlng wimiclu ' , mt cQur.a.the legitimate -
mate busin ss h'ouscs have td'suler and the
weWtro of this whole ommu"nlty rls Injured.
A number of the Chambers of Commerce
have complained of this unfair competition .
The act Is very sweeping In its provisions ,
and prescrIbes these thlhgs ns unfair com-
petition : "Attempting to place business offers
In n particularly favorable light hy means
of Incorrect declaration regarding the nature
of prices of articles of merchandise : time
amount of stock nn hand or the cause of selling -
Ing out : hindering the business or credIt of
n merchant hy Incorrect statements as to
his business person or wares , using names
of Irms or persons or trade marls or signs
so ns to lead to confusion or infringe Ipon
another merchant's trade. The betrayal of
trade secrets by nn employs wIthin two years
after leaving his employer.
Mr. Stern says that owing to the great
difficulty that would be experienced In construing -
strulng the application of this act In mdi-
vidual cases It has already beep severely
crltclset and he expresses doubt of its pas-
sage by the Relchstag , nt lest thIs year.

Jf the past fortY-lght hours continues along
the east coast of England. Inquiries this
moring at . the varIous , .0. life favlng . . . . and , coast-
guard stations slow that no aUUluonal news
has been received In regard to the loss of
time North German Lloyd steamship Ebo and
no trace has been found of tIme missing lifeboat -

many of the fishing smacks are unable to
make port and arc beatng up and down the
coast waiting for a chance to run Into ! some
harbor.
Altogether fifteen fishing smacks which
sailed over the scene of the disaster havO re-
turned. They report that the saw nothing
to indicate that a steamer had , been lost.
In reply to 'I message of sympalhy from
Queen Victoria the agent of the North Oer-
man Lloyd Steamship company hums tele-
graphed to lice majesty saying that no hopes
whatever are entcrtnlnc of any more or the

tlry captaIn and wife who started for Der-
In In December last to present their claim
to a $260,000 share In time estate of Baron
van Iharnokow All the circumstances of
time and travel and the knowledge of tIme
tme ant
oolng couple's intentions In time event of
failure , prove theIr identity .
Time story of ! rs. Drunson's short life Is n
roirantlc one. Twenty years ago Baron van
Durnekow the hell to' an Immelise estate
In Baltmore , by 'lrtue of being the oldest
son , calo to California. In San Francisco
ho met amid married Mrs. Green , who Is still
reshlng here For some years the noblemnn
and his American wife lived together , and
Ida VOI hiarmmekow and a twin sister were
born. Ida , who alone survived , Is time girl
who subsequently adopted the name of Green
when her mother resumot it Time marrlnge
leI
of Mrs. Green to the baron was not a halJllY
one. Ida was placed II the convent of the
Sacred Heart , San Francisco , and there at
Miss Lako's private school she was educated
nt her Cather's exnense.
