Call or address BARNES' Hat Store, 86 Madison-st.,, Tribuns Bullding, AT G0 yesterday morning, after an all- night sesston of fitibustering on the Appor- tionment bill, Mr. fawley, of Connceticut, suggested that the wholo matter be referred to acommitiee of ten,—fve from the Demo- cratle sideof the Ilouse and five from tho Hepublican side, ‘Tho proposition s readily acvepted, the Democrats selecting ns thelr representatives on the Committee Cox, Thompson of Kentucky, Ieagan, House, and Morrison, and the Republicans se- lected Conger, Shen.\'m. Laphat, An- derson, and - Shallenberger. The Iouse then taok a recess wntil 1030 a, m, On reassembing, Mr, Whilaims, of Wiseon- sin, offered approprinte resolutions on the death of Senator Carpenter. Mr. Jinzelton sgeonded the resolutions, and spoke a few words i eulozy of the dend Senator and of sorrow nd his death. The resolutions were mdopted, and the Tfouse adjourned as a mark of respect to the momory of the decensed statesman, but came together soon after for the Friduy sesslon, ‘I't1x; efforts of the Natlonal banks of New York to coeree Congress In the matter of the Refunding bill caused n stringency in the York and Philadelphia money markets yesterday which eming’ very near result- ing in a panic. The announcement of Secretary Sherman that he would redeem $10,000,000 worth of bonds at par and with acerned Interest had only o temporary effect, ‘Ihe National bankers eontlnued the work ot contructlon, and securities of all kinds were thsposed of at great loss in order that ready cash might be obtalned, The organ of tho National baukers says that if tho Carlisle sectlon "bf the Refunding bill Is not stricken out, only Its defeat In cither Ilouse, or *“the distinel announce- ment by the Presldent that it will not meet his approval, unless ddprived of its unjust provisions, wiil restore confiddence.” This statement sufliciently exblains thestringency, and the purpose of thosg who have created it. At last the Irish Coorclon bill has passed through the flouseof Commons, The House of Lords will now make short work of it, and it is probable that the blll will beecome o law early next week, and that arrests will bo made under Its provisions Immediately there- after. During the de?utn on the DIl Iast night Mr. Forster, raplying to a bitter speech by Mr. Cowen in denuncintion of the bill, suld [t was thne for the Ilouse toshow its strength to deliver Ireland from the terror- ism of the unmwritlen law of tho Land League, and added signifieantly that he loped it would show itself **strong enough to pass such measures as would render any future Coerclon bill unuecessary, by making the people of Ireland contented and vrosper- ous.” Justin MeCarthy's motlonZto reject the DIl was defeated—321 o &7, Six English members voted with thoe Parnellites. Tue new Spanis seems deter- mined to pursue n liberal and tolerant course notonly in Spain, but in'the Spanish colo- nles. Al press prosecutions aro to be aban- doned, and all journulists imprisoned In any part ot the Spanlsh dominlons nre to be re- leased } tho right ot public meeting, of tree votlng, and free speech is to be nccorded to all the subjects of Spaln; the Professors who were dismissed from the Spanisk Univer- sities through Ultramontane influence dur- ing the last Administration are to Lo re- stored; the poliey of lberating the slaves In the Spanish West Indics will be encournged as much as possible; and the educatlonal fa- cllitles of Cuba will be Incrensed by the establishment of a university at Havana. For Spaln this is a liberal program certainly, Tii Conference Committce of the ouse on the Apportionment bill falled to ngreo yesterday, ‘The Rupublleans held out for$19 s the number of Representatives, while the Democrats wanted the number _ fixed at 307, ‘The Republicans hope that 419 will bo finally agreed on, as Tennsylvania, Noew York, and Ohlo would gain one member ench thercby, nnd they think that the Democratic membors from theso States will voto with thoem for thnt nunbor. On tho other hand, Mr, Cox thinks that 307 will bo the number agreed upon, as, in his oplnion, that is the fairest number, The Committee will meet sgain to-duy, uml 1t I3 possible, but not very probable, that an agreement may bo arrived at. Mn. McMAnoy, of Ohblo, caused n sensa- tion In the 1louse yesterday by charging that an amendment to the Naval Appropriation blll, appropriating §200,000 to enable the Secrotary of the Navy to establish naval and coaling stations on the Isthmus of Pan- amn, was @ job In the Interest of a corporation called the Chirlqut Land Compnny, and that Execeutive intlucenco had been used in furthering the job. s reason for making the latter statement wis, that Private-Sceretary Rtogers had urged that the appropriation be passed. Blount, Goode, Whitthorne, and other Democratic members ridiculed MeMnhon's sensational stories, but it 1s probablo thnt something more will be heard of them, : Some: importaut journallstic changes are about to take pliuce In London. Edmund Yates, who is now editor of the London World, Is about to start a new evenling paper, of Whig proclivities in all prebability, and 1lenry Labouchere, the editor and proprictor of I'ruth, has bought n prrtnership Interest in the Pall Mall Gazette, which will in con- sequence doubtless becomo even moro Kadl- eal than it s at present, With John Morley and Labouchére m editorinl chargo of what ‘I'hackeray used to eall n journal **written by gentlemen for gentlemen,” the Guzclte will cambine the gravo and the gay, and be “a power In the land,” Wik the Rev, Dr, John Cotton Smith, Rector of tho Eplscopal Cnurch of the As- censlon, of New York Clty, was returning from a parishioner’s house to his own resi- dence last night nbout 10 o'cluck, ho was set upon by a thief, who struck hima stunning blow with & billy, and then attempted to wrest from him his watch ana chaln, The reverend gontleman resisted, and, some par- ties coming up at the moment, the thief wus trightened and madu ofl. Rocievort denounces the members of the French Chamber of Deputles for huving be- loved or affucted to belleve Gninbetta's statement in referonce to the (reck arms question mado last Monday, It Is now stated that the passages in the English Par- llumentary Blue-Book, on which the charges against Gambetta aro bused, were communis cated to the French press by an Irish Home- Ruler,—Alr, Q'Donnell probably,~who thus 1881—SIXTEEN PAGES getseven with the Frenchiman for a former slight. M. Fonsten hins not quits gotten over his trouble with the Parnellites hefore he hny come into collislon with the Tories, 1le has given notice that he will move the postpone- ment of tho Irish Disarming bill next Mon- day night, and Mr, Chaplln, a leading Tory, has expressed hils determination to resist the postponement, and from the course pursued by Sl Stafford Northcote It is probable that Mr, Chaplin will be supported by the entiro Tory purty, Ty Senate Committee on Comnieree ndded 81e35,000 to the amount appropriated by the Tiver and Harbor bill as 1t passed tho House, Of the Increase Wisconsin gets $100,000, Mich- igan £31,000, Minnesota £25,000, Indlana 840,~ 000; 825,000 goes to improve the harboer of Vicksburg, and £15,600 to lnprove the Mis- sourl River from Kansas Clty to its mouth, The bill as amended wns reported to the Senate yesterduy:. A DBrue-Doox denllng with the Afghan War, supplied to members of the British Parliament yesterday, contains a letter writ- ten by that venerable old fossil and military nonentity the Duke of Cambridge, In reply to a letter by Sir Garnet Wolseley, and bitterly opposing the evacuation of Can- daliar, whieh Gen. Wolseley fuvored. Of course no nttention was pald to the Royal Duke's views, Crier-Grais-Insercron REvyonnps was examined before the Investigating Commit- tecat Sprinefield yesterday. He defended himself and his subordinntes agalnst the charges made agatnst them. Mr. S, IL Me- Crea was examined for the defense also, but the eross-examination of Mr. tlow s0 shat- tereg his testhmony that fv will searcely hiclp the aceused parties. mr— Ix the fTouse of Commons yesterday Lord Ilnrtington said that the evacuation of Can- duhar was not the result of any understand- ing between Great Britaln and Russia. 1t was also annouticed In the Cominons that tho negotintlons with the DBasutes had not re- suited in a peaceful settlement, and that the war with the dusky savages will be con- tinued.

A TERRIBLE DAY, THE WORST SINCE BLACK IRIDAY. Special Dispateh to The Chicago Teibu NEW Youg, Feb, 25,—The Stock lxchanga was the scene of Intense excltement to-tuy, and the speculation thercon was on a sculo of magnitude which has rarely if ever been equaled. - Seldom hns the market been subjected to n straln so sovere, and had not the Inte upward movement In prices Lbeen founded on o more solid basis than " that of many vrevious ones, the consequences would In all -probability have been uch more disastrous. In the carly hours thero were anxious, frighteied faces by the score at the Stock Exchunge, nnd everybody was uneasy. In’ the oflices the tape recording the quotations was plcked up Ly trembling bands, and ench tielz ot tho in- dieator scemed Jike a knell. Money advanced 14 per cent. Thus, while THE RUMBLINGS OF TIE EARTIQUAKE were heard on all sides, the market opened, and its wealk and foverish condition realized the worst forebidings. In the afternoon there was n veritable panie, such as has not been equaled sinee 18T Though there are no disasters to record, the speculutive publle being the prinelpal losers, the contlnmed deposits of in tho Sub-Treasury by the Nationul- banks/ agalnst intended with- drawal of circulation In anticlpation of the passago of the obnoxlous See., 5 of the new Funding bill, caused sueh a stringeney Inmoney during tho carly morning hours that as high as 1) per cent per day amd ¢ per cent per annum was bid for lomus. Usider the consequent pressure to sell, stos prices tumbted from 1 to 17 per cent, and for efgn exehange became demoralized, bringing THE EXFOLE 1 3 MO A COMPLETE STAN Leadine drawers of Lxch.nmu in reaching for a markat, reduced thelr rates threo thnes without eifeet. Hrakers found that they had to sell their stocks In order to obtaln money, and sowa _of tho strongest houses on the street refuséd to buy asingle sharo on margln, Investiment orders were only accepted, and spoculntion was at a standstlll, Never sinco Dlack Friday was thero more Intense exeitement, Everyapecies of stock was shaken by the remorscless blast, and the strongest houses began to feel Hs fury, whils tho smnll eraft were driven beforo it It was thought at first that the auction of Sccretury Sherman would check the tendency to panfe. 1t did have n transiont eftect, but the dauger was by no means averted.
